Has Adamantium appeared in the Marvel Cinematic Cosmos?
The answer is affirmative.
As we all know, the mutant Wolverine's entire skeleton is made of Adamantium, and because of this, even if Wolverine dies, Deadpool can still use his skeleton as a weapon.
And it's quite effective.
But there are no mutants here.
Indeed.
This world has no mutants.
He was very sure about this.
So Hawk couldn't understand why suspected Adamantium metal suddenly appeared on Skull Island.
Just as he was frantically thinking about this.
Suddenly.
The whole stilt house began to shake.
Hawk snapped back to reality.
"An earthquake?"
"Shit."
Felicia was also stunned, then reacted: "It's the Skull Crawlers coming out."
Upon hearing this, images of the so-called Skull Crawlers from King Kong's Skull Island flashed in Hawk's mind.
These too are terrifying native creatures of Skull Island, enormous and terrifying in size, with a mouth full of sharp fangs and a claw-tail structure, capable of launching surprise attacks with a tongue extending over tens of meters.
The village warning alarms also sounded at this moment.
Countless Uighur people once again grabbed their weapons and rushed towards the largest building to gather, and many took their positions on the village's defensive walls with weapons in hand.
A tense atmosphere spread instantly throughout the village accompanied by the alarm sound.
Meanwhile.
Further away, in the high-deep canyon which is filled with a peculiar earthy yellow haze, a bottomless hole continuously released this earthy yellow haze, and along with earthquake-like tremors, a gigantic Skull Crawler, over ten meters tall, emerged from this hole.
The second, third, fifth.
Following closely.
The five Skull Crawlers crawling out of the hole stretched their enormous bodies, opened their gaping mouths, and seemed to announce their arrival to the entire Skull Island with piercing roars.
The next second.
"Roar!"
King Kong's angry roar followed closely, instantly overwhelming the combined roar of the five Skull Crawlers.
King Kong's roar was full of anger, different from the warning roar directed at Hawk.
His roar at Hawk was more of a warning.
But his roar towards the Skull Crawlers was filled more with anger, the kind of anger where one would wish to eat their flesh and drink their blood.
"Shit, Peter."
Felicia suddenly reacted, walking out of the stilt house with Hawk, looking at Hawk: "Peter is still in King Kong Canyon."
Hawk furrowed his sword brows, gazing at the distant high-deep canyon.
"There?"
"Yes."
"I'll find him."
Hawk said, as he looked up, his figure instantly broke through the sky, then transformed into a red light, whistling towards the area where King Kong had just disappeared, even though the dense earthy yellow haze made it difficult to see the specific structure inside the high-deep canyon from high above.
At this moment in the canyon, as the Skull Crawlers refresh, some peculiar creatures living in the canyon also began to stir.
Creatures resembling large vultures with a wingspan of several meters and resembling giant bats in appearance, known as terror vultures, usually living in the crevices of King Kong Canyon, gathered together screeching and flapping their wings trying to escape the canyon.
And creatures resembling hyenas, but much larger than hyenas, with rows of huge, sharp bone plates running along their backs from head to tail, also social animals, the Knife-Backed Jackals became restless at this moment, attempting to riotously rush out of the canyon.
Along with other strange and terrifying creatures with peculiar appearances living in King Kong Canyon, all were trying to flee what was about to become a battleground in the canyon.
And this was a hardship for the Uighur hunters who ventured into the canyon to hunt.
And...
Spider Spirit.
"Yeet!"
"Watch out!"
Peter saw a Uighur hunter in front of a giant thigh-mother creature and shot a strand of web from his right wrist, instantly pulling back the seemingly stunned Uighur hunter.
More than a dozen Uighur hunters and Peter huddled in a dead space corner on the side of the canyon.
Packs of Knife-Backed Jackals, and thigh-mother creatures along with other groups of creatures, dashed across the canyon's ground with thunderous noise.
Peter and the dozen Uighur hunters watched this scene, holding their breath in fear that these native creatures would notice their presence and casually swallow them whole during their escape.
Just at this moment.
Gravel on the canyon ground and with a ground tremor, suddenly soared from the ground into the air, with the appearance of a giant foot covered in rough fur, the guardian deity of Skull Island, King Kong, made his entrance.
Faced with King Kong, who had T0 power level, the Knife-Backed Jackals and other creatures rushing for the outside, harmoniously scattered to both sides, as if welcoming their king, leaving the middlemost and widest road as an avenue for their king to use.
At the road's end is a vast open space permeated with thick earthy yellow mist and faintly visible countless skeleton frames.
The five Skull Crawlers' figures lingered within the mist.
At this moment, they also saw King Kong, lined up together, then opened their gaping mouths again to roar once more at the appearing King Kong.
King Kong roared back in fury.
The next second.
King Kong moved, and the five Skull Crawlers moved too; a battle for the title of the strongest ruler of Skull Island erupted once again.
Facing this old enemy, who had repeatedly thwarted their underground counterattack attempts on Skull Island, the Skull Crawlers were eager to kill King Kong and dominate Skull Island alone. Then, using Skull Island as a springboard, they intended to counterattack the entire world.
Similarly.
As King Kong faced the enemies who had murdered his parents, his eyes were filled with rage, ready to devour their flesh and drink their blood.
So...
This battle for supremacy is both a contest of power and a struggle for survival!
But the Skull Crawlers were clearly cheating.
No one has a fair contest when it's five against one; that's just shameless.
Hawk, who had already reached the canyon, glanced at the ongoing battle for supremacy but didn't move to assist. Instead, his form flickered, landing before Peter, who was on high alert in the front line, protecting the Uighur hunters behind him.
Hawk almost couldn't recognize the person in front of him as Peter.
If it weren't for the rich sense of Peter's essence emanating from this person.
At a glance.
In New York City, Peter's skin was at least fair.
But now, with his upper body bare, his skin is almost as tanned and rough as those of the Uighur hunters, scattered with scars.
Hmm.
He doesn't look like Bully Maguire anymore.
Looks a bit like Savage Maguire.
Hawk glanced at Peter, pondering, then smiled and greeted Peter in front of him.
"Hey, Peter, long time no see."
"...Hawk?"
Peter's eyes visibly twinkled with surprise and joy. Just as the joy appeared, his eyes widened, looking over Hawk's shoulder at the Knife-Backed Jackal attempting to flee while opening its mouth to swallow Hawk.
Without turning, Hawk swung a punch backward.
In an instant.
Punch shadows filled the air, and the island creatures within his attack range behind him exploded into piles of flesh under the terrifying speed of the Sound Speed Fist, revealing a brief vacuum area.
The terrifying aura emitted by Hawk's punch instantly intimidated some native creatures preparing to pass through, petrifying them into stopping in their tracks. This group of creatures preferred climbing upwards to escape rather than fleeing toward Hawk.
At the same moment.
The terrifying aura from his punch also spread to the area dense with yellowish smoke in the distance.
Two Skull Crawlers maneuvering around King Kong, ready to replace their comrades and fill the breach against King Kong, froze upon sensing Hawk's terrifying aura. They looked toward the hole they had just crawled out of.
From the depths of the hole, releasing dense, yellowish smoke, came a rhythmic roaring sound.
The two Skull Crawlers seemed to be listening intently.
The next second.
The roaring sounds from the hole's depths vanished, and the two massive Skull Crawlers on the ground seemed to receive a new command. They abandoned their colleagues entangled with King Kong and sharply roared at Hawk's direction before bounding towards him.
Hawk's keen Sixth Sense also detected the two massive Skull Crawlers charging directly at him.
These two Skull Crawlers were coming straight for him.
Hawk recovered and glanced at Peter, who was about to reminisce.
"You're alright here?"
"No problem."
Peter, his body hair standing on end, sensed the approaching Skull Crawlers and replied directly, "Be careful. King Kong's parents died at the hands of these Skull Crawlers. They are terrifyingly powerful."
He had been here for over a year, and thanks to Felicia's excellent language skills, he learned of the history of the Uighur, King Kong, and the Skull Crawlers.
Hawk smiled slightly, eyeing the fast-approaching Skull Crawlers with upturned lips.
"Terrifyingly powerful?"
"Just two crawlers."
With that.
Hawk's form flickered, and when he reappeared, he was directly facing the two massive Skull Crawlers charging at him.
His right fist clenched, pulled back to his waist. The moment his right foot stepped back, the ground in the canyon cracked open in response.
The two Skull Crawlers leapt into the air, opening their mouths, revealing their dozens of meters long barbed, scarlet tongues, swiftly sweeping towards Hawk.
Hawk's right fist, held at his waist, struck out instantly!
"Lightning Sonic Fist—"
Countless punch shadows exploded from his fist, and in just a blink, hundreds of punch shadows appeared.
The Skull Crawlers' tongues were the first to suffer.
The tongues shredded under the force of the punch, turning into dense pieces of flesh falling away.
But before the two Skull Crawlers could react.
The dense shadows of the fists, like a rain of bullets, engulfed them.
The next second.
Rumble!
