Whoosh—
Above the turbulent Atlantic Ocean, suddenly, as if boiling water was churning, the sea surface within a diameter of about five hundred meters seemed to be rising.
Immediately after.
Boom!
A massive, but utterly dead deep-sea beast burst out of the water, lingered in the air for a moment, and then slammed back down onto the sea surface with a thunderous crash.
With a splat.
The sea monster hitting the water was almost as impactful as hitting concrete. Instantly, the seawater was dyed blood-red by the gushing blood.
In just the blink of an eye, the surrounding marine creatures, having lost their target, set their sights on the dead, but delicious-smelling giant sea monster.
"Clang!"
Hawk, standing in the air above the sea, watched the giant sea monster's corpse being torn apart by countless marine creatures. With a thought, the underworld cloth wings behind him separated, transforming into black streaks of light, continuously weaving back and forth over the sea monster's body.
In an instant!
The sea monster was cut and dismembered into pieces.
The next second.
Hawk ignored the marine creatures below, who were fighting over the meat and engaged in a bloody struggle. He retracted his gaze and looked towards the depths of the Atlantic Ocean.
Namo had escaped.
Just like last time, he had once again lured an innocent giant marine beast to take the fall for him, and while Hawk was momentarily distracted by the marine beast, he slipped into a crack in the seabed and fled.
Three people attacked.
Strucker died.
Shuri died tragically.
Namo fled.
But... unlike last time, when Namo escaped, Hawk had no way of finding Namo's lair, and last time Hawk was also in a hurry to return to New York.
But this time?
"Escape?"
"The monk may run, but the temple cannot."
"When you're out in the World!"
"If I say I'll kill your entire clan, I'll kill your entire clan!"
As Hawk's golden pupils flickered, the nemo trident, which had been suppressed in his Little Universe, reappeared in his hand with a flash of white light.
As soon as the nemo trident appeared, it immediately began to tremble incessantly, trying to escape from Hawk's hand and return to its true Master.
But how could Hawk let it have its way?
Hawk gripped the nemo trident horizontally with both hands, and with the eruption of his Little Universe power, he suddenly tried to break the nemo trident.
The nemo trident bent in response.
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
"Puff puff puff!"
As the nemo trident bent, its trembling became even more pronounced. At the same time, the power of the ocean flowing through it tried to contend with the power of Hawk's Little Universe in his hands.
In an instant.
Clouds of boiling Water vapor emerged from where Hawk gripped the nemo trident.
"Is Hawk planning to break that thing?"
Sharon, in the New York S.H.I.E.L.D. central hub, looked at the nemo trident Hawk was trying to break on the big screen, feeling a mix of curiosity and regret.
After all... "This trident should also be a divine artifact, just like Thor's hammer, right?"
"nemo trident."
Gwen, next to her, responded, "Legend has it that it is the weapon of Poseidon, the God of the Sea."
Sharon raised an eyebrow.
"Poseidon? Zeus, Greek mythology."
"Mm."
"Hiss!"
Sharon looked at the nodding Gwen, blinking, "So, not only do we have the God King Odin here, but the legend of God King Zeus is also true?"
Gwen shook her head, "Hawk said there is indeed Zeus in the Universe, but there shouldn't be one on Earth."
Sharon heard this and subconsciously looked at the nemo trident on the big screen.
"Then this trident?"
"Who knows, maybe Poseidon came to Earth before, just like Odin used to come to Earth, didn't he?"
Gwen said, then subconsciously shifted her gaze upwards, to the second floor, to Wanda and others in a room.
After Wanda and Pietro returned, Sharon had someone take them to the lounge area on the second floor to rest.
Mainly because Billy and Tommy were hungry and needed to eat.
Just now, after Wanda fed Billy and Tommy, she looked at the somewhat dim room and got up to pull open the curtains again.
Gwen, standing on the first floor, and Wanda, standing at the second-floor window, once again met each other's gaze across the space.
Gwen looked at Wanda's gaze and showed a slight smile on her face.
Wanda was startled at first, then also showed a slight smile.
Gwen then retracted her gaze.
Seeing this, Wanda also turned and left the window.
Pietro was helping Billy, who was lying on the sofa, change his diaper.
The diapers were bought by a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent.
Wanda walked over and took over her brother's task.
Pietro casually held Tommy in his arms and complained, "It seems we're under house arrest."
Wanda looked up at her brother Pietro, "Maybe we have to wait for him to come back."
Pietro heard this, thought for a moment, and nodded.
Over the Atlantic Ocean!
Hawk continued to struggle with the nemo trident in his hand, which was trying to resist him.
He had tried to break it last time.
But he didn't break it.
This time, he felt he could break the nemo trident, but he chose not to actually break it.
After all, he wasn't Hela.
If this trident were tamed, and if he and Gwen had a child in the future, he could completely give it to his son.
What?
This thing belongs to Poseidon?
My apologies.
This is Hawk's trophy.
So... he can use it however he wants.
But as a divine artifact, the nemo trident would certainly not be willing, so it needed to be tamed.
After all, if he wanted to find Namo's lair next, he would also need the guidance of this nemo trident.
Still the same words.
If he said he would kill Namo's entire clan, he would definitely kill his entire clan!
After all, he was a Demon King.
Moreover, he was a Demon King whose soul came from the East. The most terrifying Demon King in the West could be called a saint in the face of his killing intent.
Soon.
As Hawk continuously applied pressure, the nemo trident in his hand had already bent to its limit.
Hawk then looked at the nemo trident in his hand!
"Either submit!"
"Or Death!"
"Buzz buzz buzz!"
Almost the moment Hawk's words fell, the nemo trident in his hand had already made its choice. A sky-blue light spot emerged from the head of the middle prong of the trident.
The light spot shot into his Little Universe with a whoosh.
Immediately after, a Water World full of sky-blue appeared in Hawk's Little Universe. At the same time, Hawk also felt that the nemo trident in his hand was no longer a weapon, but seemed to be an extension of his own body.
Hawk raised an eyebrow, loosened his left hand, gripped the nemo trident with his right hand, and suddenly hooked the sea surface below with the tip of the trident.
"Rise!"
"Boom!"
A thick Water column, about a hundred meters in diameter, instantly surged out of the sea, forming a towering Water column above the surface.
Sharon was stunned.
"Hiss, this is..."
"It should be the trident's function. Hawk has subdued it."
Gwen looked at Hawk on the big screen, single-handedly wielding the trident on the sea, continuously summoning one Water dragon after another. She seemed to feel Hawk's joy and showed a happy smile for Hawk.
Sharon looked at Hawk, who was treating the Atlantic Ocean as a playground on the big screen, "Is this trident so powerful? That Black-skinned guy just now didn't seem as powerful as Hawk."
Yes.
If Namo's use of the trident before was considered introductory.
Then Hawk, currently using the trident, was a Master.
An illusion?
Sharon was a little curious.
Unfortunately.
This was not an illusion.
Because Namo had never truly owned the nemo trident from the very beginning.
The nemo trident giving its core to Hawk to show its submission was the best proof.
As is well known.
Thor's hammer was forged from the core of a Planet, possessing the weight of a Planet.
Then the nemo trident possessed the weight of a Water World.
This trident was indeed left behind by Poseidon from the myth of Zeus. As for why the nemo trident chose to follow Namo, the reason was simple.
Because Namo was a descendant of Atlantis.
And the deities Atlantis worshipped in the past was Poseidon.
But... Namo could only use the trident, but had never truly owned it.
But now!
Hawk truly owned it.
Above the Atlantic Ocean, Hawk, who had summoned several sea dragons, stood in the air, holding the nemo trident.
The black phoenix underworld armor on his body disintegrated in response and returned to the Underworld.
His gaze was fixed on the location of Namo's lair, which the nemo trident had just transmitted to him.
The next second.
Hawk looked up and glanced at the S.H.I.E.L.D. satellite pointing at him, then, in an instant, with a boom, he plunged into the sea, trident in hand.
This time, Hawk, with the help of the nemo trident, felt as one with the surrounding seawater, and he sped towards Namo's lair at an extremely fast pace.
"Uh..."
Sharon blinked, looking at Hawk, who had glanced at the satellite one second and then plunged into the sea the next, completely losing signal. She looked at Gwen, "Is Hawk not planning to come back?"
Gwen recalled Hawk's still murderous gaze when he looked at the satellite, "The matter isn't finished yet, I suppose."
She also couldn't understand why people always tried to provoke Hawk.
Hawk was clearly so kind.
This was Gwen's true feeling.
And it was indeed true; as long as no one provoked Hawk, he always stayed in New York City and never went out.
Even S.H.I.E.L.D., although they really wanted Hawk to join the Avengers, Sharon had told her.
Director Hill and Commander Hand considered it comprehensively.
They both agreed that Hawk quietly staying in New York City, enjoying a peaceful life, was more cost-effective than having Hawk join the Avengers.
As a result... Hawk clearly wanted a peaceful life, but people always came to provoke him.
They deserved to be wiped out!
Gwen thought of the Black-skinned Namo who had helped Strucker fight Hawk, thinking silently in her heart, completely without any sympathy for him.
If I sympathize with him.
Who will sympathize with me?
Gwen thought to herself, then once again shifted her gaze upwards, looking at the lounge on the second floor... (End of this chapter)
