Chen Chen walked down the street. He was currently in a small town in New York State, America.
It was the height of the afternoon, and the sun was blazing. There were few pedestrians on the road, and those who were there hurried along.
Chen Chen wandered aimlessly down the street, enjoying the exotic scenery. After a while, he suddenly touched his rumbling stomach.
I'm a little hungry, but I don't seem to have any US dollars. I can't buy anything to eat. How can I get some money?
Just as he was pondering this, he suddenly noticed a sneaky figure following him from behind.
Someone's tailing me? Could it be S.H.I.E.L.D.? Are they that good? I just got here a few minutes ago.
Thinking this, Chen Chen quickened his pace and turned into a secluded alley. He planned to catch the person following him and ask them some questions.
After Chen Chen entered the alley, a burly black man followed closely behind.
The black man froze the moment he stepped into the alley. Chen Chen was not far away, leaning against the courtyard wall and watching him. As a fresh university graduate, his English was just enough for simple conversations.
"Hey, what are you following me for?"
The black man grinned, revealing two rows of yellowed teeth. "Yellow-skinned kid, you didn't run when you saw me. You're pretty sensible. Hand over your wallet and anything valuable you have. Don't make me search you."
He moved closer to Chen Chen as he spoke.
"Hand over my wallet?" Chen Chen was taken aback. "Aren't you from S.H.I.E.L.D.?"
"S.H.I.E.L.D.? What's that? A new gang? Kid, don't try to scare me with some unknown gang. Daniel doesn't fall for that!" The black man, Daniel, sneered.
"Oh~ So you're not from S.H.I.E.L.D. after all. You're just a robber. I thought so. Hydra hid in their headquarters for decades without being discovered. I've only been here for a little while, there's no way they'd find me!"
Chen Chen breathed a sigh of relief. It was good that it wasn't S.H.I.E.L.D.. He would be wary of the big and powerful S.H.I.E.L.D., but he wasn't afraid of a small-time robber.
"I've only been here a few minutes, and I'm already being mugged in broad daylight. This truly is the free and democratic America!"
Chen Chen remained calm, while Daniel seemed impatient. "What are you mumbling about? Hand over your money, or you'll get a taste of my fist!"
"Oh?" Chen Chen's lips curled into a smile. "Sorry, I don't have any money on me. In fact, I was hoping to borrow some from you."
Daniel was furious. "You're playing games with me!"
With that, he raised his fist and threw a punch at Chen Chen.
The trajectory of the punch was crystal clear to Chen Chen. He could easily dodge it if he wanted to, but he didn't intend to. He let the fist land, wanting to test out the 'Masochistic Constitution' ability, which made him stronger the more he was hit.
Bang!
A dull thud of flesh against flesh echoed.
A burly arm slammed into Chen Chen's temple. This punch, capable of instantly knocking out or even killing an ordinary person, only made Chen Chen's head shake slightly. His eyes were clear and bright, showing no sign of having been struck.
'Energy 10'
Chen Chen felt the information coming from his mind and his face lit up slightly.
"Getting hit really does give me energy. And it seems like there's no difference in defense throughout my body. Doesn't that mean I have no weaknesses?"
Daniel continuously threw punches and kicks at Chen Chen, but couldn't make him flinch. On the contrary, Chen Chen's occasional punches made Daniel's body shudder violently, his features contorting in pain.
But Chen Chen wasn't in a hurry to end the fight. Instead, he kept provoking Daniel.
"Hey, did you skip lunch? Your punches are weak as hell. With this kind of strength, you dare to rob people? Go home and drink milk!"
"Lady, why are your punches getting softer? My grandma kicks harder when she spanks me."
That Daniel was furious, hearing him call him "blackie" and "lady" over and over again. He howled and desperately attacked Chen Chen.
Chen Chen didn't dodge, letting his fists land on him. He only occasionally struck back a few times to provoke his opponent.
And he was constantly receiving information in his mind:
'Energy 10'
'Energy 10'
'Energy 9'
All the force of these blows, landing on Chen Chen, was converted into energy and stored in the God-Level Majin System.
Gradually, the frantically attacking Daniel ran out of steam, and Chen Chen received less and less energy. He couldn't help but purse his lips.
"Forget it, I'm not playing with you anymore. Fall down."
Chen Chen grabbed Daniel's thick arm from behind, and like an arm-wrestling match, slowly pushed Daniel's arm down.
Then, Chen Chen threw a lightning-fast punch, heavily slamming into Daniel's abdomen.
Daniel, struck by the blow, his eyes bulged, and he spewed white foam, like a cooked shrimp, bending over and collapsing to the ground.
Chen Chen flipped through the fallen Daniel's wallet, and after counting, he pouted, "30 dollars. Poor ghost, not even 100 dollars on him. You don't bring more money when you come to rob people."
With that, he took out all the money, casually threw the wallet on the ground, and left the alley without looking back.
"Now I have money, I'll go eat something good."
Chen Chen touched the handful of small bills in his pocket, looked at the dazzling shops on both sides of the street, hesitated for a moment, and bought a dozen or so cheap, discounted, expired newspapers at a bookstore on the side of the road, then walked into a hamburger shop.
Ordered three hamburgers, a large fries, and a large Coke. He found a seat and began reading the newspaper while eating.
The timeline in the Marvel world was incredibly chaotic. Chen Chen urgently needed to understand the current world through these newspapers and learn which superheroes or villains had appeared.
There wasn't much useful information, but in one of the newspapers, Chen Chen saw a news report about 'Spider-Man'.
"Spider-Man is already active at this point. It doesn't seem to be the 'Holland Bro' version," Chen Chen muttered to himself, and casually reached for the fries on the table, but he didn't touch anything.
"Eh?"
Chen Chen put down the newspaper and stared at the table in front of him. Without realizing it, he had already devoured the three hamburgers and a large order of fries.
He touched his stomach, which wasn't full at all. He had eaten so much food, but he didn't feel anything.
He stood up, took out his last ten-odd dollars, and bought seven more hamburgers. While the waiter looked at him like a monster, Chen Chen swallowed a hamburger in one gulp.
A few minutes later, Chen Chen effortlessly devoured a mountain of hamburgers, enough to feed two normal people for a whole day.
Looking at his still flat stomach, Chen Chen sighed with a touch of melancholy. It seemed he'd not only gained Majin Buu's abilities but also inherited that bottomless pit of a stomach.
