"Now this is interesting."
High upon the throne in Asgard, Loki issued a command, halting the Destroyer's advance just as it was about to fully reform.
Watching Thor get beaten down like this…
That was a rare sight.
Thor was the crown prince of Asgard—the God of Thunder, whose name echoed across the Nine Realms. His victories were legendary, his reputation untouchable.
And yet now—
He was being completely suppressed by a Midgardian.
Not just suppressed…
Crushed.
…
Loki wasn't the only one stunned.
Thor himself was equally shaken.
He had already overestimated Peter's strength.
After all, anyone capable of shattering the Destroyer and knocking him out of the sky was no ordinary opponent.
But this?
Being completely overwhelmed in close combat?
That was something Thor had never imagined.
From the moment Mjolnir had been knocked out of his hand, he hadn't even had the chance to recall it.
All he could do…
Was endure.
Endure the relentless storm of blows from Peter's eight-limbed assault.
"Damn you… you bastard!"
Thor had faced countless powerful enemies before.
Colossal venomous dragons the size of mountains.
Elemental beings formed entirely of living stone.
But none of them—
None—
Had ever put this much pressure on him.
Those creatures were powerful, yes.
But Thor could fight back. With Mjolnir in hand, he could maneuver freely, dominate the battlefield.
This?
This was different.
With the Spider Armor amplifying Peter's strength, combined with his Spider-Sense and telekinetic assistance, Thor had been dragged completely into Peter's rhythm—
And he couldn't break free.
But Thor was no mere alien.
He was a god.
And gods…
Had their own trump cards.
Each punch that landed on his body brought pain—
But also anger.
And Thor's anger…
Called the storm.
The sky roared louder.
Winds howled.
Lightning surged wildly, twisting like serpents across the heavens.
Then—
A bolt of lightning, as thick as a barrel, descended from the sky—
Striking Thor directly.
He forced Peter back.
The lightning surged through his body, refining his armor, restoring his strength, recharging him with immense energy.
At the same time, the sheer destructive force of the strike blasted Peter away, forcing him to disengage.
…
"Hmph. Out of tricks already?"
Peter sneered as he watched Mjolnir fly back into Thor's hand.
But instead of pressing Thor immediately—
He turned.
Toward the Destroyer.
Or rather…
Toward Loki.
Without hesitation, Peter launched forward.
Fists, kicks, ion cannon charging—
Every attack he had targeted the weak points in the Destroyer's incomplete armor.
BOOM!!!
With a thunderous explosion—
The Destroyer shattered once more.
This time, however, it wasn't as simple.
With Loki now actively controlling it, the Destroyer was far more stable. Peter could no longer rely on a simple surprise attack to break it apart.
The first time had worked because the Destroyer had just clashed with Thor, its internal runes still recovering.
Now?
It was different.
But—
There was one crucial flaw.
Earlier, Peter had already stolen a significant number of its fragments.
The armor…
Was incomplete.
And that made all the difference.
Targeting the gaps, Peter struck with precision.
And just like that—
The Destroyer fell apart again.
Fragments scattered in all directions.
"Got you."
Webs shot out in all directions, spreading like a net, instantly sticking to the fragments.
Electric currents surged once more—
Severing the connection between the pieces and the core.
Another large portion—
Stolen.
"Sacrifice. Enhance overall physical strength."
Without hesitation, Peter fed the fragments into the Infinite Multiverse Altar System.
Power surged into him again.
Like leveling up in a game, his base attributes increased once more.
Not enough for a qualitative leap—
But enough.
Now…
In terms of pure physical strength—
He no longer lost to Thor.
In other words—
His body had reached the level of a god.
-----
Meanwhile—
Thor, now fully recovered, stood tall once more.
Mjolnir in hand.
Lightning crackling around him.
His eyes burned red with fury, like an enraged bull staring down its target.
"You wretched insect…!"
"I will make you understand the consequences of defying a god!"
With a roar, Thor raised Mjolnir and charged forward.
The force of his movement carved a deep trench into the ground as he shot toward Peter like a missile.
But Peter—
Smiled.
A cold, mocking smile.
Invisible telekinetic force spread outward, wrapping around his armor like an unseen shield—like an invisible layer of Armament Haki.
Then—
Fist met hammer.
BOOM!!!
The collision exploded like thunder itself.
Shockwaves tore through the battlefield, sweeping away dust, wind, and storm alike.
But Peter didn't stop.
Not even for a moment.
His mechanical claws retracted—
Replaced instantly by propulsion engines.
As he stepped forward, flames burst behind him—
A powerful thrust pushing him past Mjolnir's arc.
In a blink—
Half his body had already slipped past Thor's guard.
And then—
A punch.
Straight toward Thor's face.
