Chapter 77: A Painful Attack on a Teammate

　　Subterranean Shadow Multi-Snake Hand, the signature jutsu of a certain ninja who believed in science.

　　Russell doesn't know ninjutsu.

　　However, that didn't stop him from mimicking the move.

　　A white tentacle surged out from his right hand, quickly condensing into a white python.

　　Before Hulk could get up, the tentacles, shaped like white pythons, wrapped around his left foot.

　　Hulk Heaven and Earth return!

　　This is a well known attack move by Hulk.

　　Both Loki and Thor were lucky enough to experience this move.

　　While they both experienced Hulk's Heaven and Earth Return, they didn't experience Hulk's Heaven and Earth Return in exactly the same way.

　　When Loki experiences Hulk's return to heaven and earth and is thrown around by Hulk, the foot he is grabbed by Hulk is his right foot.

　　And when Thor experiences Hulk's return to heaven and earth, the foot he is grabbed by Hulk is his left foot.

　　Russell doesn't know if this is intentional or unintentional on Hulk's part.

　　However, he helped Hulk brainstorm the move.

　　When the target is a female, the grabbing part is the right foot.

　　When the target is a male, the grabbing part is the left foot.

　　Male left, female right!

　　That makes sense!

　　Although Hulk didn't know what Russell was going to do, he instinctively sensed a crisis after being entangled in the white python-like tentacles around his left foot.

　　Serum Heaven and Earth return!

　　Not giving Hulk time to break free or think, Russell turned violently and threw Hulk out with a simultaneous right hand.

　　Boom!

　　Hulk, who had his left foot wrapped around it, pulled up like a cannonball and then hit the grass hard.

　　The ground shook with the tremendous impact.

　　Hulk had just smashed a large crater several meters in diameter in the grass when he was thrown off once again.

　　Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom ...

　　As Russell flings Hulk around so that Hulk keeps making close contact with the grass, General Ross's capture team finally arrives on the scene.

　　Looking at this violent to the extreme scene in front of them, the American soldiers at the scene could not help but freeze.

　　Although they were given the task of capturing the fugitive, they didn't realize that the fugitive they were trying to capture was a green giant.

　　With the exception of a few core members, and soldiers such as Bronski, who had participated in the Brazilian capture, none of the soldiers had any idea how dangerous the target they were trying to capture really was.

　　This ...

　　Watching the brutal images of Russell flinging Hulk around and listening to those loud crashes that kept coming.

　　The American soldiers who witnessed the scene couldn't help but gulp.

　　Just as they were momentarily wondering whether or not to engage in the inhuman battle before them, General Ross, sitting in his armored car, gave his latest orders.

　　"Stay out of the fight between the white soldiers and the green targets, and provide long-range fire support to the white soldiers if necessary."

　　After giving his latest orders, General Ross, dressed in camouflage combat fatigues, stepped out of the armored vehicle.

　　He had just gotten out of the car when Betty, wearing a polka-dot V-neck dress, ran up to him and stopped him.

　　"Make Pete stop, please!"

　　Betty turned to General Ross with an anxious face.

　　"Pete? Who is he?"

　　General Ross froze.

　　Without speaking, Betty held out her right hand and pointed at Russell in the distance and said again, "Dad, please, make Pete stop!"

　　Amount ...

　　Betty doesn't know Russell's real name; she only remembers what Russell said about Pete when he introduced himself.

　　"Boy, you don't know the situation!"

　　General Ross, though he didn't know why Betty had referred to Russell by Pete, now was clearly not the time to ponder that question.

　　When he finished speaking, he grabbed Betty's arm and pulled Betty away, handing Betty over to the soldier behind him.

　　Looking at Russell, who was flinging Hulk around, General Ross's expression became grave.

　　He would invite Russell to join the capture operation, indeed, because of Russell's extraordinary ability.

　　But he hadn't expected that Russell was actually hiding other transcendent abilities in addition to his transcendent physique.

　　It was unexpected, but he was pleased with the strength Russell was showing right now.

　　Just as he was expecting Russell to completely defeat Hulk and bring him down successfully, in the distance Bronski removed the talking headset that was hanging from his ear.

　　He then dropped the rifle in his hand and grabbed the grenade gun from the soldier beside him.

　　After glancing at the number of grenades in his grenade gun, he held it up towards Russell.

　　"Bronski, stay out of this and come back!"

　　Upon seeing Bronski's unusual behavior, General Ross blurted into the military intercom.

　　No sooner had General Ross finished speaking than Bronski aimed his grenade gun at Russell, who was flinging Hulk around, and pulled the trigger decisively.

　　Boom!

　　The small grenade exploded violently!

　　No one expected that Bronski would actually attack Russell at this point.

　　As the blast flames and smoke dissipated, Russell turned to look at Bronski, who was walking toward him.

　　As soon as Bronski raised his grenade gun toward himself, he knew Bronski might be up to something.

　　As it happened, after aiming at him, Bronski fired decisively.

　　The grenade didn't hit him, but rather the small shield he had temporarily coalesced.

　　Turning to face Bronski, he disarmed the small shield of white tentacles on his back, as well as the tentacle wrapped around Hulk's left foot.

　　The first time he met Bronski at the Pentagon, he realized that Bronski had an inexplicable hostility toward him.

　　However, he still didn't expect that Bronski would dare to attack him in plain sight.

　　What is this?

　　Pummeling your teammates?

　　While he didn't know what Bronski was thinking, one thing that was clear to him, though, was that he was upset right now.

　　It's true that he's in the middle of a "superhero whitewash program," but that doesn't mean he's actually going to be a good guy.

　　What he wanted to be was not a magnificent superhero like Superman.

　　The Injustice Superman and the Homelanders were what he was considering for the future.

　　Whether it was a dictator of the Injustice Superman variety, or a superficial hero of the Homelanders variety, he was still in the process of considering.

　　After disarming the shield on his back and the tentacles on Hulk's feet, he turned and walked slowly toward Bronski.

　　After watching him come toward him, Bronski didn't hesitate and continued to pull the trigger.

　　Boom! Boom! Boom ...

　　A volley of grenades flew toward Russell.

　　However, none of the grenades hit him, being deflected with his right hand in an unbelievably casual manner.

　　After the grenade was fired, Bronski did not hesitate to drop the grenade gun and remove the pistol from his belt.

　　Bang Bang Bang ...

　　When Bronski switched his weapon to a handgun, Russell had no intention of even blocking it and allowed Bronski to shoot toward himself.

　　A magazine was quickly emptied by Bronski.

　　Meanwhile, Russell comes to him.

　　"You know, you could have had more power!"
