New Punisher: I am a mass murderer in Marvel

Chapter 81 Desperate Stark
Hundreds of thunders directly drowned the hatred.

The blazing silver light made it unable to see clearly what was in front of it.

It instinctively sensed danger, but it didn't know why.

A series of blinding flashes left his eyes blank.

Suddenly, he felt a pair of hands holding his head, followed by a deep voice: "Look into my eyes!"

Eye?
where?

It's very confused.

The voice continued to sound, like a judgment: "Your soul will be eroded by the victims. Feel their pain!"

"Do not--"

A desperate roar that resounded through the sky shocked all the viewers in front of the TV.

They couldn't see what was happening in the fierce thunder.

But as the thunder faded, they saw their beloved New York savior, holding up the monster's limp body in one hand.

Monster, dead?
"Woohoo~"

The audience cheered happily.

Jameson on the helicopter was shocked. This kind of power was indeed much stronger than his boss, the human canned man!

At this time, Hulk finally passed through the layers of buildings and arrived at the battlefield.

But he was a little confused. Why did his opponent kneel down? What were these dwarfs doing?

His simple brain couldn't analyze what was going on, which made him very annoyed and he wanted to smash something!
Cohen looked at the Hulk who was about to lose control, and quickly came to Wolverine's side: "Go tell him that the sun is about to set."

"what?"

Wolverine was concentrating on staring at the powerful enemy in front of him, but Cohen's words made him stunned.

"What went down the mountain?"

"This is an opportunity that could end this battle right away, do you want to give it a try?
Once you succeed, you will be the greatest hero of the night!
Reach out your hand, slowly approach him, and tell him with your most gentle smile and the softest voice that the sun is about to set..."

Looking at the monster in front of him, Wolverine hesitated.

As soon as he raised his foot, Cohen next to him suddenly laughed.

He immediately realized that he had fallen into a trap, and angrily said, "You son of a bitch, if we weren't on the battlefield, I would have made a few holes in your body!"

Cohen patted his shoulder and said, "Watch out, I'll teach you how to fight monsters!"

As soon as he finished speaking, he soared into the sky.

Wolverine was stunned. Fuck, are you going to fight the monster or run away?

Cohen flew directly to the helicopter where General Ross and Betty were, and knocked on the porthole, "Bang bang!", signaling for the door to open.

General Ross, looking confused, hesitantly opened the back door.

Cohen went in and saw Betty, whose face was filled with sadness.

"General Ross, how about borrowing someone from you?"

When Ross saw Cohen staring at his daughter as soon as he came in, he knew what he meant.

He immediately became furious: "Impossible, are you trying to use her..."

Cohen ignored him and turned to look at Betty: "If you don't want to, I'll have to beat him to death."

"Yes, I do!"

Betty, who had seen Cohen's power, nodded repeatedly and rushed over.

Cohen hugged her waist tightly and flew backwards.

Ross shouted angrily: "Asshole, give my daughter back to me, you will kill her..."

When Hulk's frustration reached its peak and he wanted to smash everything in front of him, Cohen landed in front of him holding Betty.

The angry Hulk immediately went silent.

Cohen returned to Wolverine and nodded at him, "Here, this is love!"

Wolverine glanced at the Hulk, who had really calmed down under Betty's gentle advice and was slowly turning back into an ordinary person.

Speechless.

Can only give Cohen a thumbs up.

Cohen smiled and walked up to the Hulk who had transformed into a human form: “Dr. Banner, nice to meet you.

I wonder if you are interested in joining the Avengers to uphold justice, save the world and protect the people?
I welcome you here.”

Dr. Banner remained silent, with deep suspicion in his eyes.

Cohen paused and said, "Oh, I forgot to tell you that Miss Betty just agreed to join my laboratory.

If you join the Avengers, you can work together.

My research laboratory is in the Avengers base."

Betty glanced at Cohen. Join his lab? This was the first time she had heard such words.

But she didn't refute, instead she looked at Bruce Banner.

Cohen continued: "In the Avengers base, you don't have to worry about hurting others, as you can see, we are all super-powered.

Unlike General Ross, I will not force you to fight any battle you are unwilling to fight.

I can even hire you as a researcher.

If you don’t feel comfortable, you can always leave. After all, there are few places in this world that can hold you back.”

Banner didn't want to agree, but when he saw Betty's eager and expectant eyes, he hesitated.

"……All right"

Gee!

Behind Cohen, Wolverine shook his head and sighed, love is really a cage!

……

The street fighting was over, and life in New York continued as usual.

The difference is that there are more and more reports and posters about the Avengers on TV and in the streets.

A nightclub.

The music was blasting and the lights were flashing.

With the help of alcohol and some small round pills, young men and women twisted their bodies wildly, releasing their youthful hormones.

Stark, who is nearly 40 years old, also joined the carnival.

He twisted his body, rubbing against the girl and the boy, and he was already drunk.

In a daze, I suddenly felt a warm current in the triangular area.

He staggered to the bathroom, washed his face, and became a little more sober.

When he opened his shirt, he saw horrifying blue veins all over his chest.

He took out a small square instrument, opened it, pressed it with his thumb, and felt a tingling sensation. The instrument showed: palladium concentration: 58%.

Taking a deep breath, he knew that he was about to die.

These days, he was like a desperate wild dog, partying like crazy.

He left the entire company in the hands of Pepper Potts and disappeared.

Participating in Formula One racing, sleeping with models like crazy, partying in nightclubs...he wants to use the feeling of excitement and happiness to offset the fear of death.

I looked at my pants, they were soaked, so I went home to change... No, why should I change?
Throwing the instrument into the trash can, he rushed back to the dance floor.

Then play music, then dance!
This time, because Nick Fury focused most of his energy on the Avengers and the Justice League, he did not discover Stark's abnormality in time.

Of course, Natasha the Black Widow was not sent out.

Pepper was busy with company affairs all day and unconsciously ignored him.

So, even if the reveling Stark suddenly fainted on the dance floor, no one noticed.

Apart from……

When Stark woke up, he seemed to be in a box.

The music outside is still booming.

In front of him sat an old man with a slicked-back hair, a black suit, leather gloves, and a skull-shaped cane, all dressed meticulously.

It looked out of place in a nightclub.

However, inexplicably, Stark felt an unusual aura from him.

"Tony Stark?"

"who are you?"

The old man smiled and said, "I really like your armor. It is a masterpiece of design. You must have the smartest brain in the world."

“Yes, I have.

But who are you? "

“When you need to know, you’ll know.”

Stark stood up and shook his head which was aching.

He took out a check from his pocket and quickly filled in a few figures: "Here, this is your reward for moving me into the room, thank you.

As for guessing who you are, sorry, I'm not interested! "

The old man was not angry. Instead, he took the check, glanced at it, and said with a smile, "The famous Stark is really generous, but..."

He paused, his face suddenly serious: "This amount of money is not enough to pay for your treatment."

Stark's face changed, and he suddenly lifted up his clothes on his chest to take a look. The blue veins on it were gone!

He asked in surprise: "You cured me?"

“Don’t be too happy, it’s just temporarily clearing the palladium in your body.

But within a few days, the concentration will still rise to a level that is enough to kill you.”

Stark was silent and sat back down: "Let me ask you again, who are you and what do you want to do?"

The old man smiled. "Want to make a deal, Tony Stark?"

He waved his hand, and the check suddenly caught fire without wind and turned into ashes.

……

President O'Connor was pleased with the fighting on the streets of New York that night.

He gave the Avengers more funding and policy support.

Cohen's base has become larger.

In addition to the place where the Avengers train, there are also schools and dormitories for mutants.

and several research buildings divided into classified and general areas.

What Cohen was most concerned about was the research work on the Thunder Armor. After talking with Anton and his son, he decided to go to Stark Tower.

Soon, he knocked on Pepper's door, wearing a handsome blue suit and holding a box of fresh cherries in his hands.

Seeing it was him, Pepper stood up enthusiastically: “Hey, Father Cohen, long time no see!

Come to think of it, neither Stark nor I have formally thanked you for saving our lives. I'm really sorry!"

"Yeah, I'm really sad that you haven't asked me out for coffee."

Pepper blushed slightly, showing a bit of shyness: "Uh... I've been too busy recently, and Stark suddenly handed the company over to me..."

At this moment, a voice suddenly came from the TV: "It is hard for us to believe that Stark's secretary was appointed as the CEO of Stark Industries!
What qualifications does she have?
She has no management experience at all..."

Pepper's face suddenly turned pale.

Cohen patted her on the back of her hand a few times and said, “Don’t be sad, it’s normal to be doubted.

There are always people in this world who like to gossip, but I believe you can manage this huge company well.”

Pepper nodded, not feeling much better.

Cohen shrugged: "Don't let him influence you, or I'll lose a lot!"

"Why?" Pepper wondered.

"Because, after you took office, I bought a lot of Stark Industries stocks!
Besides, you can handle even the most difficult person Stark himself, let alone a company?"

"That's right!" Pepper finally smiled.

The two chatted about some other topics until the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Pepper looked apologetic: "Mr. Cohen, my flight is going to be late..."

"It's okay!" Cohen stood up quickly.

Pepper picked up the cherry on the table: "I like this very much. I will take it to the plane to eat."

The two of them went out together. Cohen paused slightly at the door and looked at the model board in the corner.

Pepper quickly explained: "This is the three-dimensional map of the industrial expo park that Howard left for Stark a long time ago. It has been placed here ever since."

Cohen certainly knew.

In fact, one of the buttons on his chest is a miniature scanner with strong penetrating power, which has recorded the entire three-dimensional image.

After a brief pause, he continued walking forward.

The two of them came to the hall together, and Cohen suddenly patted his head: "By the way, I have another gift for you."

"What?" Pepper was slightly surprised.
Cohen took out a box and opened it, revealing an exquisite sapphire necklace.

"It's inappropriate for a beautiful girl like you to have nothing around your neck."

"This, such a valuable gift, I can't..."

Cohen was helpless: "This is my first time giving a necklace to a girl, you won't let me return in failure, right?"

"This……"

"I swear, there is no other meaning in this. It's just a simple gift."

Pepper hesitated: "Are you sure there is nothing else..."

"I am sure!"

Pepper hesitated again and again: "Well... okay."

Cohen quickly took out the necklace: "Let me help you put it on."

"Huh? No, Mr. Cohen, there are a lot of people here!"

They didn't notice that outside the hall door, Stark was standing there blankly, as if struck by lightning.
