"Since you covet my abilities so much, I'll let you see what the power of a Shinigami is!" Yuma pulled General Ross and made him look at the base in front of him. Then he clicked on the skill card.
" Hado #96, Itto Kaso !"
In an instant, Yuma's spiritual pressure was completely drained.
The air began to become extremely hot. The sweat on General Ross' forehead was instantly evaporated, and even his skin began to dry and crack.
If Yuma hadn't been protecting General Ross, the moisture in his body would have been completely drained.
Soon, all the moisture in the surrounding air was completely evaporated. The trees and grass all withered. The entire space began to change color, as if a white sheet of paper had suddenly been splashed with red paint.
The entire base's ground began to melt. Then, a large amount of red flames suddenly surged up, carrying immense energy and shooting straight into the sky.
Boom!
In an instant, the flames condensed into a giant blade, with the tip facing upwards, standing in the sky, illuminating the surrounding sky in a fiery red color, clearly visible dozens of kilometers away.
Everything in the giant blade of flames, even the air, was incinerated and turned into nothingness.
…
"How is it? Isn't it spectacular?" Yuma said excitedly to General Ross, looking at the giant blade of flames in front of him. "You're the first person in the world to see this skill!"
General Ross slumped to the ground, his eyes fixed on the base that was engulfed in flames. He made unconscious whimpering sounds.
Even when facing Hulk and the Abomination, General Ross hadn't felt this kind of despair.
Although they were powerful, they were still on a physical level. They were just stronger and had a stronger defense, but at least there was still courage to fight back.
But what about Yuma?
Just a word, a skill, and he could instantly destroy a base.
This was true destruction, not the ordinary destruction of being breached.
What kind of person have I messed with?
Is he really a Shinigami?
General Ross looked at Yuma's face, illuminated by the firelight, and for the first time, he questioned his decision.
The giant blade formed by flames slowly dissipated. The original location of the base was left with a deep crater. Everything that had been there was annihilated and disappeared.
…
"S.H.I.E.L.D. people should be here soon," Yuma put General Ross on the ground, releasing the Bakudō that was binding him. "Wait for them here."
"You should have killed me," General Ross said fiercely. "Otherwise, I will use all my life to avenge you!"
"I welcome that," Yuma smiled. "But I need to correct you. It's me who will avenge you, not you who will avenge me!"
"I'm looking forward to our next meeting. I'll send you a bigger gift than this one then!"
As he spoke, Yuma opened a Garganta, stepped into it, and disappeared. He left General Ross alone by the crater, waiting for rescue.
…
"The power of a Shinigami, it's really powerful!"
In a cluster of grass in the distance, a middle-aged man lay on top, watching the dissipating giant blade of flames and sighing. It was the man Yuma had released from the lab.
Seeing Yuma step into the black space gate, the other side stood up, touched something in his pocket, then ran towards another direction.
Besides the human-shaped imprint pressed into the grass, there was also a transparent ID card left behind. There was no photo on it, only a name: "Raman Rivera"!
…
The location where Yuma's Garganta led to was his shop. He probably couldn't live there for a short time, so he needed to come back and get some things.
After packing his luggage simply, Yuma left a sensing item in the shop, then opened a Garganta again and entered Hueco Mundo.
…
On the other side, General Ross stood in front of the deep pit. Not long after, S.H.I.E.L.D. people arrived. When Yuma woke up, someone had already notified S.H.I.E.L.D.
"General Ross, I'm a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, Clinton Francis Barton," a young man with a quiver on his back and a black recurve bow in his hand walked up to General Ross, looked at the deep pit, and asked. "What happened here? Where's the base? And where did Yuma go?"
"Take me back to S.H.I.E.L.D.," General Ross didn't answer his question. Instead, he directly ordered. "I have something very important to discuss with Nick Fury."
After saying that, he didn't care about Barton and turned towards the Quinjet.
Barton was helpless. He could only wave his hand, motioning for a few agents to come over and take some photos. Then, he also boarded the plane and flew towards S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.
…
"Tony, how's your video research going?" In Tony's villa, Banner and Rush were eating breakfast and asked Tony, who had just come out of the underground lab. "You've been watching it for two days. Have you found anything?"
"No clue," Tony sat on the sofa, picked up a cup of coffee, and took a sip. "No matter how you look at it, there's nothing wrong with that video."
"I've also tried to contact Natasha and Coulson, even some of the soldiers who were there at the time, but I can't get through to any of them."
"Do you think maybe the boss really disappeared like they said?" Rush said after stuffing a sandwich into his mouth. Seeing that the two of them suddenly looked unhappy, he quickly changed his words. "Of course, I don't mean he's dead, but he really disappeared."
Rush swallowed the food in his mouth and continued. "Think about it, the boss' abilities are amazing. You still don't know what skills he has. What if he used some kind of ability to escape at that time? It's not impossible, right?"
"It's impossible," Tony said after taking a bite of food. "Yuma was unconscious at the time. He couldn't have disappeared on his own. Besides, the video itself is a problem."
"S.H.I.E.L.D. and General Ross' people are completely unreachable. They only left us this video. I feel like they're deliberately concealing the truth about Yuma's disappearance. This video is just to make us stop looking for him."
"Those guys are definitely not good people. Otherwise, they wouldn't have captured me for so long and tried to get my abilities," Banner said. "I'm thinking, maybe they've taken a liking to Yuma's abilities and captured him, just like me."
"It's possible," Tony finished his coffee. "I've sent people to find out. Also, I'm asking Jarvis to hack into their communication satellites to see if we can get their communication records at the time. Then, we can find clues."
"Do you need my help?" Banner asked.
"Of course," Tony snapped his fingers. "I need you to transform into Hulk and cause some destruction. That way, we can lure their people out. As long as we can find them, I can get information from them."
"No problem," Banner agreed immediately. "Hulk's good at this!"
"Sir, I think you might want to see today's news," Jarvis' voice suddenly sounded in the room. "There might be information you want to know."
"Project it onto the screen," Tony instructed. "Skip to the important parts."
"Yes, sir."
Soon, the screen began to play a news report about an explosion at a factory in Manhattan. The entire factory was razed to the ground and disappeared…
