The Way

"Bronski, don't buy his lies. You've seen how powerful his tech is," Fury quickly cut in, desperate to keep their shaky alliance. He couldn't afford to turn potential allies into enemies.

Abomination paused, thinking about Christopher's impressive tech and the humiliating defeat he had suffered.

"You're going down today!" Abomination roared, convinced by Fury's words.

"Well too bad, have a safe trip to hell!" Christopher shot back coldly.

With a gesture, he commanded ten thousand giant lizards to charge at Abomination and his team.

Screams echoed as the giant lizards, with their vicious fangs and claws, surged towards Abomination's group.

Christopher's strategy was to weaken the enemy's forces with the giant lizards before personally intervening. With Professor Lizard's help, he could produce these creatures continuously, unafraid of losses.

Stuck between General Ross's forces and SHIELD's troops, Christopher weighed his options and made a swift decision.

He resolved to raid SHIELD's safe amidst the chaos—where there's a will, there's a way.

Targeting Ichiro Matsumoto, who struggled against the giant lizards, Christopher sprinted forward, intent on seizing Matsumoto's knife.

Matsumoto, alert to Christopher's approach, swiftly evaded, his knife skills potent but unable to truly harm Christopher. Avoiding further conflict, he leaped onto a giant lizard's back and darted away.

While Christopher sprinted, he seized a giant lizard and hurled it with force.

Ichiro Matsumoto reacted swiftly, vanishing underground and merging among the giant lizards.

A lizard clamped its bloody jaws around Matsumoto's body.

Matsumoto didn't evade but thrust his knife forward.

The blade pierced the lizard's mouth and emerged from its skull. As Matsumoto withdrew the knife, the lizard collapsed. Pausing briefly, Matsumoto was overtaken by Christopher.

Christopher shoved aside and even crushed any lizards blocking his path.

Approaching Matsumoto, Christopher extended his massive hands.

Matsumoto tilted back, kicked off, and swiftly swung his knife.

A glimmer flashed.

Christopher missed Matsumoto but suffered a cut on his hand.

A superficial wound, easily healing in seconds—Christopher shrugged it off.

Pressing forward, he continued grasping ahead.

A sudden attack from a giant lizard caught Matsumoto off guard as he retreated.

Christopher, seeing this, accelerated with delight.

The lizard clamped Matsumoto's waist, inflicting severe injuries. Bones snapped, its teeth piercing his abdomen, leaving him immobilized.

Struggling to wield his damaged knife, Matsumoto lacked the strength to free himself or slay the lizard.

Christopher acted mercilessly, kicking Matsumoto to death. He then stomped the lizard that had bitten him.

Snatching Matsumoto's knife, Christopher examined it.

The blade measured a meter, the handle 30 centimeters.

The handle's brevity forced Christopher to wield it single-handedly.

As he grasped the blade, he sensed an eerie power surging through it, swiftly assimilated by his robust genetic cells. This knife had clearly been tempered by countless lives, a malevolent tool born of sacrifice—no wonder it could pierce his skin.

Turning, Christopher approached a wall and swung the knife. The blade cleaved effortlessly through, like slicing tofu.

Christopher continued to wield his knife, slicing through steel walls as he advanced. "Optimus, locate SHIELD's safe," he ordered.

"Yes, my lord," Optimus acknowledged, projecting a 3D holographic map from Christopher's wrist.

Using the map's guidance, Christopher cut a direct path towards the safe, slicing through anything obstructing his way, including doors, without deviation.

Observing Christopher's breach, Fury swiftly commanded, "Christopher's on the move! Chase and kill him! This is our chance!"

SHIELD's formidable operatives utilized their skills to battle through the Lizard Army before pursuing Christopher. Those less powerful remained behind, locked in combat with the relentless lizard onslaught.

Fury himself joined the pursuit, summoning Abomination for reinforcement. Despite the Lizard Army's numbers, they couldn't prevent Abomination from leaving with his ten humanoid beasts. As ordered, 10,000 giant lizards followed, set on attacking Abomination.

Meanwhile, Christopher, alerted by Optimus, accelerated his pace. "Inform Natasha to deploy robots and flying ants to delay them," he instructed.

"Yes, my Lord," Optimus acknowledged dutifully.

"And tell her to send additional flying ants to assist me with transporting the loot," Christopher added.

"Yes, my Lord," Optimus confirmed again.

Swiftly slicing through yet another obstacle, Christopher pushed forward with urgency, intent on emptying SHIELD's safe before Fury and his team caught up.

Minutes later, Christopher arrived at SHIELD's heavily secured safe. With precise cuts, he dismantled the massive lock on the iron door. Careful not to damage the contents within, he used his knife to carve out two iron pillars from the wall.

Squatting down, Christopher gripped the bottom of the door with both hands and lifted it effortlessly. The 20-ton door rested on his shoulders, supported securely by the iron pillars.

Surveying the contents of the safe, Christopher was stunned, his expression morphing into disbelief and horror.

"Damn it, Fury is ruthless," he muttered incredulously.
