'.....'= Thoughts

______________________________________________

As John was about to continue the attack, a helicopter rushed toward them and began firing bullets at the Abomination.

At the same time, Tony in his Iron Man suit also rushed toward them while firing beams at the Abomination.

The Abomination instantly dodged the beam and bullets while picking up the broken pieces of vehicles. He used them as a shield to protect himself from the attacks.

His deformed arms were healing at a rapid rate, but the Abomination appeared visibly weakened compared to before.

Suddenly, someone jumped from the helicopter.

'Really? After I did most of the job?' John complained in his mind, knowing that the person who jumped out of the helicopter was actually Banner. However, he knew that this was not his fight.

Truth be told, John was relieved by Hulk's entrance. He was fully aware of the difference in strength between himself and the Abomination.

John knew that he had an advantage at the start of the battle due to the element of surprise brought by his Devil Fruit. Additionally, the Abomination was not at his peak while fighting John. He had only recently transformed into the Abomination and did not have full control over his strength.

John knew that he was no match for the Abomination in a one-on-one fight. While his Devil Fruit power could temporarily hold back the Abomination, constantly using the powers of the Devil Fruit would tire John out and ultimately lead to his defeat.

Furthermore, John's Regeneration ability was not as strong as the Abomination's, and he also lacked physical strength compared to him.

Even if John tried to fight the Abomination using his Naginata, the battle would still result in John's death. John's proficiency with the weapon was not high enough to launch long-range attacks at the Abomination with it. If he were to engage in close combat with the Abomination, John would be taking a significant risk.

Even if John were to be directly hit by one or two punches from the Abomination, death would be the only outcome, and he was not willing to risk it.

Suddenly, another hole appeared on the road below, and a massive green being emerged from it.

Enraged by the Abomination's presence, the Hulk let out a roar and charged at his opponent with incredible speed, causing the ground to shake with each thundering step.

To prevent the helicopter and Tony from bombarding him with bullets and beams, the Abomination swiftly hurled large pieces of vehicles at them.

Tony managed to dodge the projectiles, but the helicopter was not as fortunate. It was struck by the debris and started spinning out of control, smoke pouring from its damaged engines.

Tony activated his suit's thrusters and soared toward the helicopter, attempting to aid in stabilizing it.

Seeing his girlfriend in danger, Hulk was distracted. Just as he was about to jump at the helicopter to save her, Abomination's fist struck him in the jaw. It sent him tumbling down the road. However, Hulk quickly regained his balance by embedding his feet in the ground.

"Don't worry, big guy. I've got her. You keep fighting," John shouted at Hulk. Without waiting for his consent, he used a broken car as leverage and jumped at the helicopter.

The Naginata, which he had drawn earlier, disappeared from his hand as he stored it in the system space.

As John reached the helicopter, which was slightly stabilized by Tony but still emitting smoke and ready to catch fire at any moment, he saw that the pilot was already dead. General Ross was struggling to control the helicopter.

In the back seat, there was a woman with a troubled look on her face.

"Be quick," Tony shouted. The helicopter was still hovering about ten meters high in the sky above the road.

John hugged Betty, surprising her with his sudden appearance. He princess-carried her and jumped out of the helicopter, with Tony assisting General Ross in escaping the burning aircraft, which eventually crashed and exploded upon hitting the ground.

"Thank you," Betty expressed her gratitude to John as he put her down. John nodded in response and advised her to stay in that location.

After ensuring their safety, John and Tony joined the ongoing fight.

Meanwhile, on the road, Hulk and Abomination continued their fierce battle, exchanging blows with incredible force. Both opponents appeared to be evenly matched.

Despite being weakened from his previous encounter with John, Abomination managed to deflect some of Hulk's punches and counter with powerful strikes of his own. With each clash, the sky darkened as the two monstrous beings created shockwaves that shattered windows and sent debris soaring through the air.

John and Tony saw the opportunity and pressed on, determined to put an end to this threat once and for all.

Tony, still in his Iron Man suit, joined the fray to provide support to the Hulk. He unleashed a barrage of missiles and repulsor beams at the Abomination, but the creature proved stubbornly resistant.

Whereas John using his Haki and the concentrated move of the Quake Quake Fruit that he had used in the fight with the Abomination earlier, assaulted him.

Whenever Abomination managed to knock the Hulk back a bit, John would use the opportunity and hit the Abomination with his Devil Fruit powers.

The Abomination roared in pain as the attacks hit its tough and mutated skin.

The trio continued their relentless assault, never giving the Abomination a moment of respite. The creature growled and bellowed in pain, but they pushed on, determined to weaken it further.

John's attacks with his Haki-enhanced punches and the devastating power of the Quake Quake Fruit shook the ground, causing tremors that disrupted the Abomination's footing. Tony's missiles and repulsor beams rained down on the creature, creating explosions and singeing its flesh.

As the battle raged on, the Abomination started to show signs of fatigue. Its movements became slower, and its attacks lacked the same ferocity. Sensing an opportunity, John Hulk and Tony intensified their assault, targeting its weakened spots.

'Weren't you having fun, you bastard? Why don't you laugh now?' John taunted the Abomination in his mind. 'This is the power of team bullying.'
