"What should we do now?"
Natasha looked at the Avengers who had gathered together and asked a soul-searching question.
"Teamwork!"
Captain Rogers firmly believed that unity was strength.
"I still have a score to settle with Loki."
Thor was still thinking about his grudge with Loki. He was determined to teach that mischievous little brother a proper lesson.
Hawkeye Barton, hearing this, wore a resentful expression as he installed an explosive arrowhead.
"Oh yeah? Then you'll have to get in line."
When it came to grudges, Barton had been controlled by Loki for a long time and had hurt his teammates. The resentment inside him was boiling over.
At this moment, Captain America showed the advantage of his combat experience.
"Listen, Loki is their commander. Take him out, and the enemy army will fall into chaos."
Just then, a battered old motorcycle came speeding up and slowly stopped in front of everyone.
"Looks pretty bad."
Dr. Banner arrived late, wearing clothes just as shabby as the motorcycle under him.
"I've seen worse."
Banner's face reminded Natasha of the time he transformed on the helicarrier and nearly killed her. She stared at him with slightly aggrieved eyes.
"Actually, it's not that bad."
At that moment, a red figure lightly landed behind them.
It was Corin.
After crushing another wave of enemy attacks, Corin had heard the Avengers gathering together in the distance, discussing tactics.
For now, the enemies in the air couldn't form a large formation, so he decided to come down and rest for a bit.
As the only bounty hunter among them, Corin felt he shouldn't act too eager.
Of course, making money was another matter. He could save up a bit more later.
Taking advantage of the break, Corin came over to the Avengers.
Before coming down, Corin had exchanged the huge pile of Chitauri combat gear he had accumulated under his feet earlier.
[Exchange successful! +224 billion USD. Account balance: 315 billion USD]
Looking at the bold number of over three hundred billion in his account, it was hard for Corin not to feel great. He couldn't help but speak up with a joke.
Natasha's words were cut off. When she turned around and saw it was Corin, she immediately relaxed.
If the raging Hulk had left her with an impression of violence and destruction, then Corin's earlier act of forcefully stopping the Hulk had made her feel extremely safe.
"Hey, buddy! You'd look even cooler wearing that medal."
Seeing his old friend appear, Thor patted Corin on the arm and sized up his outfit from top to bottom.
Thor knew Corin possessed extraordinary strength, but what amazed him was that in the earlier battle, Corin had even displayed abilities that were practically divine.
This made Thor feel even closer to his friend.
After all, on Midgard, being a god still felt a bit out of place.
And Corin's power, infinitely close to that of a god, made Thor see him as one of his own kind.
It had to be said that the red suit on Corin at this moment was quite close in color to Thor's cape.
The difference was that Thor's red leaned toward glory and brilliance.
While the red on Corin carried a hint of blood, and under the gold-thread embroidery, it looked more like Dracula's cloak.
When Colonel Rogers saw Corin appear, his eyes lit up.
He strode over, extended his right hand, and spoke respectfully.
"Mr. Destiny, you've worked hard. I salute you!"
Corin knew Rogers was a traditional American soldier. They respected strength.
From initially dismissing him to now taking the initiative to shake his hand, it was clear enough.
But Corin didn't dislike Captain America's personality. He was loyal to his mission, carried his own sense of responsibility, and was a genuinely straightforward person.
When he was happy, everything was fine. When he wasn't, he would want to challenge you to a one-on-one.
So this kind of person, with a bit of childlike sincerity, wasn't too annoying.
Holding Colonel Rogers' hand, Corin said modestly, "I don't deserve that. You've saved so many people yourself, Colonel. You've worked hard too."
That's how it is with people like them. You respect me, I respect you.
If you play tricks or try to scheme, don't blame me for being rude. Like Loki.
Hawkeye Barton had just been wearing a cold expression, his mind full of thoughts about how to find Loki and get even, but when Corin appeared, he immediately came over.
The coldness on his face vanished. He had long witnessed Corin's strength.
And such a powerful person showed not the slightest bit of arrogance. That earned Clint's genuine respect.
He stepped closer to Corin and greeted him.
"Mr. Destiny…"
He didn't say much, but his sincere eyes were full of respect.
"You're back to normal, Barton."
Corin smiled as he returned the greeting, which made Agent Barton's eyes show a hint of embarrassment.
Clearly, being taken over by Loki and turned into a puppet was a black mark in his past that was hard to erase.
Dr. Banner thought about what Natasha had said and also remembered that he had caused quite a mess on the helicarrier earlier. Not only had he not helped much, he had destroyed a lot of aircraft.
"Sorry…"
"It's okay. Right now, we need something worse."
Agent Natasha knew that in this war, if the Hulk could tell friend from foe, he would definitely be another top-tier combat force.
"Stark! We've found him!"
Colonel Rogers remembered Tony asking about Banner earlier and reminded him over the comms.
["Tell him to get ready. The party's about to start."]
Tony had been impatient for a long time. During the conversation just now, he had been using his agile movement to bait the Leviathan at close range.
Iron Man didn't have any effective way to deal with the Leviathan. Among them, the only ones capable of confronting such a giant head-on were Corin and the Hulk.
But Corin had already taken too much punishment earlier, and at this moment, everyone's thoughts were surprisingly in sync.
"Let Corin rest for a bit. Banner, since you're late, if you don't go up, who will?"
Corin had no desire at all to deal with the Leviathan.
Because it was just a modified giant biological creature, packed inside with dense Chitauri infantry like seeds being shaken loose.
There was nothing to exchange. Just a lot of effort and not worth much.
So when everyone subtly hinted that Banner should go hold it off, Corin had no reaction at all.
'Who said that just because I am capable, I have to go?'
'I'm not going.'
'Whoever wants to go, go.'
Thinking this, Corin raised his head and scanned the sky for airborne enemies equipped with combat bikes.
It felt like clearly accepting a mission to kill "flyers".
But instead, wave after wave of "hot-blooded fighters" kept appearing in front of him.
As Tony emerged from behind the building and came into everyone's view, the Leviathan followed less than ten meters behind him, its metal body carving a massive gash into the skyscraper.
Watching Tony and the giant monster dive toward them, no one panicked. Natasha even voiced an objection.
"I don't think this is anything worth celebrating."
Tony quickly dropped altitude and flew close to the ground.
The Leviathan hugged the ground as it continued the chase.
At this moment, Banner glanced at everyone and walked toward the Leviathan with an innocent look on his face.
Seeing Banner, who didn't look very angry, Colonel Rogers couldn't help but remind him.
"Dr. Banner, now might be a good time for you to get angry."
After confirming that there weren't many enemies riding flying bikes in the sky and that he could rest a bit longer, Corin turned to look at Banner with interest.
Another iconic scene was about to appear.
Banner's slightly dejected figure walked along slowly, forming a sharp contrast with the massive creature charging toward him at high speed in the distance.
"That's my secret, Cap…"
Banner looked back at Rogers, then turned again to the Leviathan barreling toward him like a bulldozer with special effects, as if calculating the distance between them.
"I'm always angry!"
As he finished speaking, Banner's smoothest transformation ever appeared. [T/N: The Hulk that we needed in Infinity War and Endgame.]
At this moment, Dr. Banner seemed able to control the anger inside his body, releasing and restraining it at will.
As he turned, his tattered jeans were instantly torn apart.
The right fist carried along with the motion smashed directly into the Leviathan's "bridge of the nose".
BOOM!
"ROOOOAR!"
The sound of the punch, the Leviathan's wail, and the shattering of the road surface intertwined into a shocking symphony.
The poor Leviathan didn't have ABS. Hulk's iron fist pinned its head in place, causing its long rear half to flip upright and whip over due to inertia.
A massive shadow instantly enveloped all the Avengers, plus one bounty hunter.
