"I am Hector King Washington,"

"I am Phong, Emperor of Beastia planet."

Now there was an awkward silence among the two strong boys. But Hector was finished, and it was time to start networking. He needed to go around and ask them why they were here. But first, he needed to assert dominance, so nobody dares tell him a lie.

Fighting was obviously out of the option. What else was left? ~Hmm... how can strong people become bros and sisters fast... IDEA!"

He put his plates away and stood upon the table, of course, not the one on which his new Gorilla friend sat. "LISTEN UP! Some of you may, and some of you may not know that I am the owner of Moonspeed Corp cargo company and also East Xandar Trading company. I have an offer today. Anyone who can beat me in a match of arm wrestling will get a million credits from me,"

At first, there was silence. Then there was more silence, until one orc-like guy spoke, "What's in it for you?"

"Haha, I'm just bored, my friends. So, WHO WANT'S TO BE A MILLIONAIRE?"

"YEAAAA!"

"MEEEE!"

Crazy took over the place, and all the strong ones started to come forward. Hector nodded. This was the reaction he hoped for, "Let's do it then. Clear the table,"

He sat down on the side, and it would be his permanent base unless someone beat him. The first person to come was a giant, 7-foot tall alien with red skin and humanoid features, except for his ears, which were long, pointy, and perked up. "Let's do it. We rarely get rich folks here,"

"Fine, come on." Placing his hand on the table, Hector prepared. There were not going to be any referee. The only way to win was to destroy the opponent.

"Hehe, you're small." The alien was pretty confident. But his face lost that smugness when both clasped their hands. He felt Hector's tight grip.

Thankfully, one guy was acting as the starter, as he would count.

"1"

"2"

"GO!"

"AAAAAAAAAA..." The red alien pushed. He gave his all as even his eyes started turning red. However, Hector's hand didn't budge more than an inch.

*Yawn* "You're weak," *BAM*

All it took was a second. Hector slammed the opponent's hand easily. Loud and clear, he won. But he didn't wait and taunted the crowd, "Is there nobody who can defeat me?"

"I WILL!" Now came an ugly alien. He seemed to be a mixture of Thanos and all his children. A hideous sight, but tolerable.

The match started. This time, Hector didn't bother ending it so fast; instead, he played the game of who wants to be a millionaire, Mrbeast style. "So, as long as you can answer a question, you will get double the amount if you win. If you can't answer the question, you lose it all, the match ends. So, double? Or keep going?"

"Double,"

~Haha, greed... downfall of even the best of us,~ He silently chuckled, "Okay, tell me the third law of Newton,"

(•ˋ _ ˊ•)

"What? Who is Newton?"

"Sad, you should have focused more on school. You just lost two million credits. Next!" Hector let him go and started another round. Once again, he asked weird questions that no one could answer. One by one, he thinned out the crown until nobody was left who would challenge him.

*THUMP*

But then, the big Gorilla walked over and took the place of his opponent. Hector smiled, "So the big boss finally showed up. Let's go, no questions, a real match."

"1"

"2"

"GO!"

Hector was way too shorter and thinner than this Gorilla. In addition, his thick hairy arms and large palms were much bigger than Hector's, so it was already problematic for him to keep a hold.

~Nice,~ He felt Phong having enough strength to push his hand 5 inches, much more than all others. But, sad for him, Hell's Inquisitor does not accept defeats.

It was an intense match, and in the end, Hector did win, but Gorilla also won respect, "That's pretty neat. You're the strongest here,"

"Not me, you," Saying this, Phong left him alone. But the crowd did cheer and surround him. He achieved what he wanted. Now was the time to gather intel.

...

It took Hector 3 days to filter out all prisoners in there. Most of them were genuine criminals who did something heinous, but some were kept there because the Kree Empie feared them or considered them a future threat.

So, he started plotting two things. Both started with a plan to run, but the real criminals will be fooled and be used as meat shields. Meanwhile, those Hector approved will leave with him.

"Do you understand the plan? We will take their ships and fly away. Remember the coordinates," He ordered his small team.

"How will we gain access to them? The dock is controlled by a different system,"

He scoffed, "Hah, don't worry. I have a way to handle that. After all, this whole prison is also a ship. Just reach the docks on time."

The plan was ready and set. Hector also spread rumours to various minor factions that he would help them all run out. So everyone was prepared. Of course, the guards knew this was happening, but they didn't know the whole plan.

As soon as the right time came, he sent out Skull Knight H to partially manipulate the giant prison with hellfire and release the warships on the docks.

It was an easy job from there, and all selected aliens flew the ship away. Hector too rushed to one of them, but he saw the Gorilla standing and waiting there.

"What happened? You never told me about yourself, and I didn't choose to take you. So step aside. I have a Kree Empire to destroy,"

Phong, however, didn't budge, "I join... if you wish to destroy the empire. End of Kree is my life's goal."

Well, who was he to deny another hater of the Kree, "Come on in."

Six major Kree warships left the prison and headed out to enter the jump and leave the Kree space. Hector was excited about this prison escape, as this was just the start. They had planted bombs all over the place, and as they escaped, they started to blow up spectacularly.

He had no guilt about doing this as only criminals were left there now. Them and the Kree guards. It was war, and everything was fair in love and war, though now he'd have to become a bit quicker as the Empire will come after him with all their might.

"Haha, good. Now we just need to be a little care-" He stopped midway after noticing a few ships coming out of the jumps and going opposite, towards the exploding prison.

Hector hailed the ship, "What the fuck are you doing with Freedom One? Turn around quickly,"

"President, we came to save you," Yondu's ugly mug appeared on the screen.

"You fools, I told Moony, there is no need to save me,"

However, as soon as he finished speaking, a swarm of small, golden spacecrafts appeared like a wall. Only one of them was bigger and different than the rest. *BEEP BEEP* The communicator prompted.

"Pres, I gathered their military as quickly as I could and came here to save you," It was Logan, along with Sovereign's High Priestess. It seemed the alliance talks went neatly.

But Hector had a headache, *Sigh* "You all are fools. They are all dead, You must all leave this place immediately, or a battle will start if the Kree Forces reach."

Logan shrugged, but then he noticed something, "WAIT! IS THAT A GORILLA BEHIND YOU?!"

Hector proudly nodded, "Say hello to Phong. He will be joining us,"

"WOOF", Moony appeared on Yondu's screen, snatching the datapad from the guy, but the boy was so close that only his forehead and nose were visible.

"NEW FRIEND?" That was what Moony wondered.

Hector chuckled, "Haha, of course, everyone is Moony's friend. What about Yelena and Natasha? Are they okay?"

"GRANDPA!" Now Yelena fought Moony to plaster her face on the Datapad, and she was also too close.

Hector felt warm in the heart, "Bwahaha... easy there. I will be there soon. We all will go to an amusement park after that."

~Then I will initiate the downfall of the Kree and possibly Nova Empire too. Assholes backstabbed me. This is unacceptable.~
