43 The path of Sukuna or...

The abnormally large sword cut through Hulk, ignoring his defense. Hulk felt pain, but more than anything, he felt discomfort, as this time something was cut that wasn't flesh.

The massive energy coursing through his body was split in half, like stepping on a hose and cutting off the water flow.

In a single move, Allen struck Hulk's abdomen with his left hand, and from behind the giant green figure, a huge wave of green energy dispersed into the air.

"The gamma radiation that turned you into this version wasn't originally yours, so like two pieces of fabric sewn together, it's not fully assimilated... I can separate it and expel it from your body."

Hulk attempted to attack, but Allen's domain attacks severed his arms. Allen combined his Conqueror's Haki with his Malevolent Kitchen, and the endless cuts increased his power to pierce through Hulk's impenetrable defense.

Hulk couldn't move, and immediately Allen's sword cut Hulk's green energy once more.

Crown Saber severed the gamma radiation, and Malevolent Kitchen cut through Hulk's body. This series of attacks overwhelmed the monster, rendering him helpless; every second, waves of green energy dispersed through a combination of sword and fist strikes by Allen.

Hulk crossed his arms to defend himself, but the sword pierced through, expelling gamma radiation from within him.

Hulk screamed in annoyance, feeling weakened. He clapped his hands, creating a devastating shockwave that hit Allen.

Allen felt his organs shift upon receiving the shockwave, but he was enveloped in his Innocence and protected by Haki.

As he emerged, Allen found Hulk's foot about to fall on him. Allen turned, letting the stomp hit the ground; a nearby mountain split in half. The cuts from Malevolent Kitchen continued relentlessly on Hulk.

Allen stood expressionless as Hulk used his giant fist in front of him.

Just as Hulk was about to kill Allen, his arm was severed into pieces. Allen grabbed Hulk's face and smashed it into the ground, relentlessly cutting him with Crown Saber, forming a massive cut mark on the ground.

Everyone could see with joy how Hulk's glow dimmed every moment, and the fluorescent veins grew thinner.

Hulk grabbed Allen's hand, snatched Crown Saber from him, and threw it away. The weakness and pain caused by the sword were so intense that even Hulk tried to get rid of it in a moment of lucidity and reasoning..

However, Allen smiled at seeing this, without stopping him. "It's too late..."

Hulk attempted to attack now that the dangerous sword was gone, but Allen extended his hand. "Cleave... extinguish..." Hulk felt more fatigued as one of his arms dried up like a twig.

Like Sukuna replicating Mahoraga's adaptation against Gojo's infinity, like Sukuna modifying Cleave and creating the web he used against Kashimo, Allen was also capable of altering his cursed technique to change its nature.

He copied the way Crown Saber cut gamma radiation and added it to his Malevolent Kitchen. Now, Hulk couldn't block the cuts anymore!

Allen withdrew as Hulk growled, and his arm returned to its original size. However, the fight was decided. Allen looked pityingly at Hulk, but he showed no mercy; his domain increased in intensity, thousands of cuts attacked Hulk every second, dehydrating his body as if draining him.

AAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHGGGGG!!

Hulk's scream echoed for dozens of miles around, but this time, it contained pain and anguish mixed with his fury.

Hulk's rage is infinite, and consequently, his strength is too, but even faster than Hulk's rage, Allen's domain weakened him.

«To cut the gamma radiation itself? That's a brilliant idea...»

Wednesday's calm voice reached Allen's mind; he looked at his shoulder, and a small doll appeared there. She couldn't speak directly because people might hear her.

Speaking of the spectators, they were in shock seeing Hulk being attacked by endless cuts, yet he seemed like an absurdly immortal monster because he kept regenerating.

Allen knows she can come and go from his inventory at will, teleporting to wherever he is, no matter if it's in another world. This strange phenomenon remains a huge mystery to Allen.

He has wondered more than once if all sex dolls are like that. Wednesday was a normal girl before coming to this world, but what about those who have abilities? Powers or magic. Could they use that power in this world?

«Are you going to kill him?» the girl whispered.

Allen smiled. "There's that possibility... I don't want to, but if I can't decrease his strength enough to return him to normal, will I have to kill him?"

"... From my point of view, I think you should end him now that you can. However... you'll regret it someday... after all, Hulk is just a victim, and killing an innocent person is an overwhelming burden... for someone like you."

"I know..." Allen smiled, but Wednesday glanced at him, sensing something was wrong.

'A disagreeable fake smile...' Wednesday thought, feeling a strange painful emotion in her chest.

Wednesday disappeared again, leaving Allen thinking.

His emotions had numbed after experiencing hell with Sukuna, but he was still the same, and when his mind cleared, he might regret killing Hulk.

"I would have liked you to be truly evil..." Allen smiled ironically, hearing his own hypocritical thoughts. If Hulk were truly evil, would he feel okay about killing him? Allen observed Hulk trying unsuccessfully to withstand the attacks of his domain.

"No other way, I'll push a little harder..." Allen disappeared. "Hulk, your power is artificial. Since that gamma radiation isn't yours, it's not fully assimilated by you."

It's like seeing a huge rope held together in the middle by a knot; being imperfect makes it possible to separate.

"Hachi..." Allen placed his hand on Hulk's head, and immediately, a larger invisible cut expelled a massive amount of gamma radiation from within Hulk.

The screen lit up, blinding all spectators and swallowing Allen's figure.

...

The system interrupted the live broadcast at Allen's request.

Allen lay on the ground exhausted; he used too much cursed energy expelling that gamma radiation from Hulk. "What they say is true, it's harder to save someone than to kill them, don't you think so, Hulk?"

Hulk sat in front of Allen, now smaller, less than three meters, but still big.

"Did it work?" Even Allen himself was surprised that it worked.

"Why help Hulk?... Hulk does many bad things..." said Hulk, sitting there dejected. "Hulk tired of running... everyone hate Hulk for existing... but have a point, Hulk be danger"

"Weapons are dangerous, and everyone has them... the president has a button to destroy the world in his cabinet. the danger is relative," Allen replied. "but I'm mad at you for almost killing me."

"But then why help Hulk?" Hulk looked at Allen, confused.

"Who knows... at least I think you didn't deserve to die if it was never your intention to act this way... and I didn't want to be like him," Allen recalled Sukuna's last words.

(Sukuna: Well, I taught you everything... now let's see how long it takes for you to be like me, Allen Walker!! HAHAHAHAHA!")

"I'll never be like him..." Allen stood up and offered his hand to Hulk. "Would you like to stop running, Hulk?"

"What?" Hulk looked at Allen's hand, not knowing what it meant.

Allen smiled. "It's called greeting."

"Hulk greeting!" Hulk happily grabbed Allen's hand tightly.

*Crack*

"...Just don't use so much force when greeting others," Allen replied with the same smile while activating the reverse technique.

===

Back in New Mexico.

Allen looked at Agent Coulson, who had been blown away in a bubble at the beginning of the fight.

"So... you put a seal on Hulk that prevents him from transforming into that world-destroying thing, but it'll break if Hulk gets too angry, so we can't capture him..." Phill looked at Allen skeptically.

"Yeah, that's basically it..." shrugged Allen.

"Hulk feels it, Hulk behaves badly," Hulk bowed as Allen had taught him.

===

– That's a lie -_-

– That's a lie more fake than my father saying he's only going to the store for milk, lol

– Cap Allen, it's not okay to tell lies, or at least put more effort into it, D:

===

Phill didn't believe it either, but as he was about to respond, he received a call from Fury. After accepting his new orders, he observed Hulk.

"General Ross has been arrested and will face a court-martial," Coulson observed Hulk's reaction.

"ROSS!!! HULK SMASH!!!" Hulk shouted as veins on his body bulged; Phill put his hand on his pistol.

"Hulk..." Allen called the big green guy, and he immediately calmed down.

"Feel it..." Hulk apologized to Coulson.

"It seems he can control himself," Coulson sighed. "Besides, SHIELD will take care of the people affected by gamma radiation. We don't know if we can reverse the mutation, but it's better than a hospital."

"Good people give food to Hulk, help them."

Coulson felt strange seeing Hulk and comparing him to the monster from earlier; they were so different. This one seemed like a child learning to speak.

"Technically, he's only two weeks old..." Allen added, feeling exhausted; it had been a lot and he was somewhat tired.

===

– I don't know how to feel about this outcome

– Obviously angry!! That thing almost destroyed the world, it shouldn't end like this!! Someone arrest him!!

– Arrest him?! And where would you lock him up? Nothing can contain him if he turns into Worldbreaker Hulk again.

Gwen – Remember Allen said that state was artificial, so Hulk isn't entirely to blame. Also, the news says nobody died.

– Don't be naive, that was thanks to Allen containing the damage.

MJ – Precisely, trust his judgment and decision.

– Wait, I just realized, did our Otaku save the world?!!

Gwen - Yes~

The crowd quieted down. Despite dissatisfaction with how Hulk was being treated, they had to accept that Allen had saved the world.

===

[Host, zero confirmed casualties, only material damage thanks to you. Also, the campers you covered with your Innocence in that valley have all been rescued.]

'I see...' Allen didn't react much to that news; his main wish was not to kill innocents. Of course, people's deaths bothered him, but only to the level of a normal person feeling empathy and pity for them.

[During the livestream, viewers exceeded three million, but half of them are starting to leave after the fight ended.]

Allen didn't react to those numbers. It was normal given the danger caused by Hulk, and it would have been more, but people didn't find out in time.

Allen simply shrugged; he knew that most viewers wouldn't return for the next livestream. Still, he had to deal with a million people because Allen had confirmed that he was an Omega-level "mutant," and possibly, DC was something real.

...

Phill stared ahead with empty eyes; behind him were a young man and a green monster, all three riding a three-seat bicycle.

"Why?!" Coulson yelled as he cursed his life.

"Why are we on this damn bike again!!"

"No, this one's different, Phill, it's very sturdy and has three seats~" replied Allen maliciously.

===

– Are we seriously back to normal?! O_o

– Hahaha, poor Coulson

– Give that man a raise, lmao

Rick – That's the magic of Marvel, one moment you're facing an apocalypse, and the next, you're having shawarma with friends.

– Rick137, what's Marvel?

Rick – Your underdeveloped brain doesn't need to know...

===

'System, play suitable BGM for a road trip.'

[At your service, "Life Is a Highway."]

The music started playing out of nowhere, surprising Coulson and Hulk.

Coulson looked at Allen's smile behind him. "Don't you dare, Walker..." Coulson threatened with a dark face.

"Fine..." Allen smiled widely, his eyes laughing. "Life's like a road that you travel on! When there's one day here, and the next day gone! Sometimes you bend, sometimes you stand Sometimes you turn your back to the wind!"

"Hahaha, Hulk likes the song!!" Hulk started to follow the rhythm.

"Come on, Coulson, don't be a killjoy! Life is short, just sing Life Is a Highway~" Allen got a microphone. "Through all these cities and all these towns

It's in my blood, and it's all around

I love you now like I loved you then

This is the road, and these are the hands..

From Mozambique to those Memphis nights

The Khyber Pass to Vancouver's lights

Knock me down and back up again

You're in my blood, I'm not a lonely man!"

"Hulk likes it! Life Highway!~"

While Allen and Hulk sang in the back seats, Phillip Coulson was having an existential crisis. These two had been fighting each other and nearly destroyed the world in the process, but now they seemed like a pair of crazy friends.

And to make it worse, Phill was back on the dreadful bicycle.

Phill turned to Allen furiously, "Enough is enough! We're just taking it to Puente Antiguo!"

"Come on, Phill, you know I have to fulfill the challenge," Allen shrugged, making the microphone disappear from his hand.

"Huh?! You're still on about that?!" Phillip wanted to throw himself off a cliff. "You were nearly killed; you shouldn't be bothered anymore."

Phill couldn't understand how Allen could still be concerned about the outcome of a stupid survey.

"Are you messing with me, Walker?..."

"Messing with you?" Allen opened his eyes in surprise but immediately got annoyed. "Listen, bastard! I could be relaxing at home! But no, I'm here saving the damn world because of you! Do you think I want to?! I was nearly killed!!"

Phill was about to reply, but then he thought that indeed Allen had saved the world. Perhaps he should be more respectful towards him. Phill calmed down, but as he was about to apologize to Allen, he felt the speed of the bicycle increasing.

"Mr. Walker?" Phill started sweating cold.

"What?..." Allen replied reluctantly.

"Aren't we going too fast?" asked Phill, pale.

"...huh?"

...

The same woman who had given Allen and Phill a hard time last time was driving on the road when suddenly something passed her at high speed, startling her and making her brake abruptly.

The woman pulled out a shotgun and got out of her vehicle, confused. "What the hell is going on?!!" Then she opened her mouth, almost dropping her dentures, as in the distance, she saw a three-seater bicycle speeding like a Ferrari and not slowing down. "fucking city kids!" cursed the woman as she spat on the ground.

...

Allen turned back; there was Hulk, pedaling faster and faster every second.

"LIFE IS A HIGHWAY!! HULK LIKES MUSIC!!"

"Hulk, that's enough!" Allen shouted, but due to the wind, speed, the BGM, and Hulk's strident singing, his voice didn't reach the big green guy.

Allen turned to Coulson. "I admit that buying a single bicycle for the three of us wasn't the best idea," said Allen with a deadpan look.

"Fuck you, Walker," Coulson cursed.

Phill wanted to strangle Allen, but as he turned forward, he yelled, "Ahhhh!!"

"Now what?" Allen heard Coulson scream in the distance.

There was a cliff half a mile ahead...

"Shit shit shit! Stop your green friend now!!" Phill pressed the brakes, but they didn't work. There was no way a bicycle's brakes could stop Hulk. Phill, being in the front, could turn sharply, but that would tip them over, and they would fall anyway.

"Hulk, you son of a...!" This time, Allen also lost his patience, but the muscular green guy had his eyes closed, listening to the music and didn't respond to Allen.

Allen gave a dark look and turned to Phill, who looked desperate. "I don't know if it's a good time to say this... but all my abilities are on cooldown, Phill!"

"What does that mean?!..."

Allen laughed and cried, "Hahaha, we're going to die..."

"You're a..."

The bicycle shot up into the sky E.T. style. Phill screamed like a girl, Hulk continued singing while laughing, and Allen had an indifferent face as he questioned his life.

"I survived two apocalypses, but I'll die in such a stupid way, heh... well, that's the story of my life..."

"Don't worry, Hulk has an idea!" Hulk interrupted. "The bad ground wants to hurt Hulk's friends, so Hulk will fall first and destroy the bad ground, so Hulk's friends don't get hurt." Hulk smiled as if it were the smartest plan in the world as they lost momentum and began to fall.

"..." Coulson stayed silent.

"Oh my god, we're completely dead he...he," Allen laughed dryly, denying reality.

Phill grabbed him by the neck, "Fuck you, Walker, stop playing around! You must have some hidden card!! I don't care if wings come out of your ass; just save us!!!"

As they fell to certain death, Allen's eyes lit up, and he clapped his hands with an idea.

"Oh, that's right, Phill, I still have my super-resilient body, and I can enhance it further with cursed energy and Haki..." Allen smiled brightly. "Don't worry about me; I'll be fine," said Allen like a complete son of a b...

"...I hate you with all my soul," Phill looked at Allen with empty eyes. He felt like pulling out his gun and emptying the whole magazine on the shameless Allen, but he knew that wouldn't do anything.
