Marvel: The Greatest Hero Era

"Yes! That's right, that's the Rainbow Bridge."

Surtur was plotting something; he could tell that Sirocco genuinely disliked Anton.

So, since he can't beat anyone right now, why not use his brain?

"Hehehe~ You really want to have Muspelheim all to yourself, right? I can help you, but you have to help me too."

"Oh, it sounds like you have a really good idea. Tell me about it."

Just as Surtur and Sirocco were colluding.

On a planet in the universe, a massacre is unfolding.

"Die, Thanos!!"

Thanos, covered in blood, slashed the taunting guy (De Wang) to death with a single blow. He then tore a piece of cloth from the corpse of someone passing by and slowly wiped the bloodstains off the blade of his sword.

"Lord Thanos!"

The loyal Ebony Maw approached, knelt down, and reported, "The population of this planet has been counted, totaling..."

"Alright, you can handle this little thing. Do I really need to teach you after all this time?"

"Yes……"

Ebony Maw, sensing the displeasure in Thanos's words, felt a chill run down his spine.

Just as Ebony Maw was about to step back, Thanos suddenly called out to him.

"Where did Boros go to identify himself?"

"As for that guy, he said he went to find the strongest guy on this planet."

"The strongest on this planet?"

Thanos looked back suspiciously at the city he had destroyed. He vaguely remembered that he had indeed encountered a native who claimed to be the strongest on the planet.

However, even the strongest one couldn't withstand a single blow from him and was cleaved in two.

Chapter 161 The Conqueror Casillas

Stepping onto this mountaintop where the wind howls.

Boros met the strongest being on this planet who had 'called' him. "So it's you, the representative of this planet." "—Not bad aura."

What a sound it was! It was as sharp as an arrow, and it seemed to make even the mountains tremble.

A glint of light flashed in his eyes, and Boros was about to step forward when suddenly a palpable killing intent enveloped him, sending chills down his spine. "Haha, what sharp eyes! Indeed, a worthy opponent to draw your sword against."

He raised his head, his eyes filled with intense killing intent, which even stung Boros's single eye.

Boros grinned, realizing that the person before him was a formidable enemy who was in no way inferior to him!

From the sword wounds covering his body like medals, and that terrifying, ghostly smile, Boros knew he was the strongest of the strong! "Before the battle begins, how about we state our names?"

Boros showed no sign of underestimating his opponent, and before the battle even began, he removed the armor that suppressed his power.

Without the restraints, the power instantly filled every corner of Boros's body.

The activated cells propelled Boros's aura to new heights! "I am—the ruler of the universe. Boros!"

"Heh, this is interesting. It seems this duel won't be boring."

With that, he drew the twin swords tucked at his waist, his face instantly turning icy cold, as if the surrounding air itself had frozen. "I am—the conqueror. Casillas!" Before the words had even faded, Boros moved.

Upon spotting Boros, Casillas sidestepped and drew his sword! — [Nightfall Flow - Gale Sword]

The sharp slash sliced ​​through the mountains and even cleaved through the planet's atmosphere! Boros, who had been split in two, instantly recovered and shouted excitedly, "Again!!" In an instant, both of them turned into phantoms and disappeared from the spot.

The next second, the mountain peak where the two had been standing was cleaved into dust by an unseen blade of light.

Immediately following, another energy beam blasted in, piercing straight into the depths of the earth's core.

Boros, who shattered a continental shelf on this planet with a single shot, was completely unconcerned about his severed arm; with a surge of energy, he could easily regrow another arm. "Not bad, among the enemies I've fought, you could be considered the strongest besides Kahn..."

Kaecilius slowly approached, sword in hand, pointing it at Boros. A terrifying aura erupted from him, causing the entire planet to tremble in fear. "Hahaha! You're the second opponent, after Thanos, who excites me so much!" Boros, his body flushed blue by the surge of energy, assumed a charging stance.

Sensing that Boros's strength had increased again, Casillas struck first this time! —【Nightfall Flow - Broken Heart Sword】

The sprinting slash, which broke through the biological limits of speed, was so fast that even Boros could hardly see it.

but!

Does he need to see clearly?

No need!

Even if Boros were to be torn to pieces, he would still throw a punch at Casillas, forcing his way through that severed space of death! "Good!"

Casillas was impressed by Boros's relentless offensive style.

The fist wind that tore the earth apart and the slash that split the sky collided.

This triggered a cataclysmic change in the world!

Thanos, shocked by this change, instinctively gripped the Infinity Gauntlet tighter.

The Power Stone blazed with light in an instant. "This power is... Boros!?"

Sensing the violent fluctuations in Boros's energy, Thanos immediately realized what Ebony Maw had said earlier. "Could it be that there really is a being on this planet powerful enough to rival Boros?!" Realizing this, Thanos could no longer sit still and rushed towards the direction of the battle.

Meanwhile, the two fighters, locked in fierce combat, were constantly improving their level of exertion.

From the initial probing to now, Casillas has pretty much figured out Boros's fighting style.

Boros gradually adapted to Casillas's swordsmanship style. "If we're talking about speed, then—"—Meteor Burst!

Boros, who was the first to reveal his trump card, rushed towards Casillas at near-light speed.

(cdeb)

Casillas, whose vision could no longer keep up with Boros's speed, closed his eyes without hesitation. —[Mind's Eye]

The magic within his body ignited and was released in that instant.

Casillas had forgotten everything except the concept of wielding a sword.

They caught up with Boros's speed!

Boom boom boom!

The earth-shattering sword energy and fist winds shattered the entire planet's surface.

So much so that the continent where the two of them fought couldn't withstand it and was scuttled!

If it weren't for the Power Stone protecting him, Thanos probably wouldn't have even been able to get close to the battlefield before being chopped into pieces by sword energy that flew in from nowhere.

Only Boros, with his abnormal regenerative abilities, could fight that enemy to his heart's content on this battlefield crisscrossed by 'blade storms'.

Suddenly, Thanos sensed something was amiss.

Sure enough, he saw Boros activate his Meteor Burst mode and fight the enemy.

He immediately turned around and told his men to set sail and leave the planet.

Boros's men, however, were much more cunning. They didn't disembark but remained aboard the spaceship, drifting through space. Thanos came down to conduct population control for the planet's inhabitants, not them. "Is this all you've got?! Boros!!" "No! Not yet!!!"

The two had fought so hard they were indistinguishable and were now completely mixed up.

In a collision, half of the planet was shattered, and they were briefly separated.

Boros unleashed a burst of energy, accelerating once more as he charged toward Casillas.

Having had countless weapons broken, Casillas threw away the hilt of his sword and pulled out two more knives from the alternate dimension.

This time, it's time to settle the score.

Noticing the change in Kaecilius's aura, Boros steeled himself and unleashed his ultimate attack. "As the second opponent in this universe to have given me pleasure," he declared, "you are worthy of my final move!"

"This is the ultimate attack, concentrating all my current energy—" "Collapse Star—Roaring Cannon!!!"

Compared to Boros, who unleashed all his energy and created a terrifying spectacle, Casillas, who remained unassuming and didn't make much of a show of force, had a final move that involved accumulating all his power and then releasing it all at once.

——【The Ultimate Sword - Thousand Demon Slayer】

Kaecilius unleashed all the compressed magic power within him in one go, and with a stunning slash, aimed at the oncoming Star-Shattering Roaring Cannon!

What appears to be a single strike is actually thousands, even tens of thousands, of slashes by Casillas!

The Star-Shattering Roaring Cannon, imbued with the power of the Sword God, was sliced ​​in two.

The relentless slash severed Boros's arm.

Ultimately, even the planet beneath their feet was cleaved in two.
