The Witcher: The Journey to Transcendence from Marvel...

Chapter 385 Internal Strife?

Upon hearing the cold command, the Punisher's eyes glazed over, and he mechanically walked towards the door, his steps heavy yet carrying an unyielding stubbornness.

Upon seeing this, Steve felt a strong sense of foreboding. He knew that the Punisher had lost his self-awareness and the situation was extremely critical. Without hesitation, he rushed forward to stop the Punisher.

"Bang!"

Just as Steve was about to touch the Punisher, the Punisher fired without warning.

Fortunately, Steve reacted quickly enough to raise his shield and block the sudden attack.

The Punisher seemed completely unhindered, continuing straight towards the door and quickly exiting the Candy House.

Outside, the superheroes who had been waiting for a long time saw someone come out and assumed that Steve and his team had successfully completed their mission inside. They rushed over eagerly, their faces full of concern and anticipation.

But to their utter surprise, they were met with the merciless muzzle of the Punisher's gun.

"Bang!"

"Bang!"

With two muffled gunshots, the superheroes, caught off guard, didn't even have time to react before collapsing into pools of blood, clutching their chests. Crimson blood slowly spread across the ground, a gruesome sight that was truly shocking.

"What are you doing??"

"Are you crazy?"

The remaining superheroes were shocked and furious, shouting loudly. They never expected their former comrades to suddenly turn on their own people. Without hesitation, they drew their weapons and began to fight back. In an instant, shouts of killing and fighting mingled together, and the scene descended into chaos.

"It's quite a good drama."

Inside the candy house, Seraph Nami looked at the chaotic scene outside with an excited smile on her face, clapping her hands happily as if she were watching a spectacular performance, completely unconcerned that someone had lost their life because of it.

"You really have a twisted sense of humor," Sanji, the Archangel, couldn't help but retort.

Natasha seized the opportunity and launched a sliding tackle at Seraph Nami. Her movements were clean and decisive, carrying a resolute air, and she kicked Seraph Nami hard in the shin.

To her despair, the kick felt like she had struck an incredibly hard iron pillar; the immense recoil caused her foot to ache terribly, and she almost lost her balance.

"snort!"

Seraph Nami snorted coldly, a hint of anger flashing in her eyes. She suddenly raised her foot and kicked Natasha hard.

Natasha was kicked away like a weightless soccer ball, crashing straight into the wall.

The candies on the wall were incredibly sticky, instantly trapping Natasha firmly. She struggled desperately, but couldn't fall off and was helplessly trapped there.

Peter wasn't in much better shape; he was still bound by that strange chair and couldn't move.

At this moment, only Captain America, Steve Rogers, is still able to move freely.

"Your shield is good."

Seraph Nami examined the shield in Steve's hand with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

Steve ignored her, simply standing in front of Natasha with a serious expression, watching her warily, ready to deal with any possible attack.

"Don't worry, I won't do anything further."

Seraph Nami, as if she had gotten tired of playing, sat in a chair with her legs crossed and said casually.

"What exactly is your purpose?" Steve demanded angrily, his eyes wide.

Seraph Nami casually tossed her hair and said in a sweet voice, "It's nothing, we're just bored. The adults didn't set up any obstacles, but we were curious about what kind of abilities the superheroes of this world have, so we set up some challenges to see what tricks you can come up with."

She shrugged, looking nonchalant, and then said, "I didn't expect you guys to be so weak. You couldn't even get past the second level. Sanji, you can contact them. The game is over."

"Boring?" Steve's face grew even darker, and he said seriously, "Just because it's fun? Do you know how much damage your actions have caused, how many people have died?"

"Who knows?"

The two seraphim remained indifferent, their disregard for life blatantly displayed, as if the dead were nothing more than ants in their eyes, utterly unworthy of mention.

This disregard for life completely enraged Steve, who hurled his shield at the two men.

The shield traced a silver arc in the air, flying towards its opponent with a sharp and imposing aura.

Seraph Sanji remained calm and composed, simply extending his hand slightly and catching the rapidly approaching shield with a single hand.

Seeing this, Steve quickly activated the magnetic force on the shield, trying to recall it, but the shield seemed to be firmly held by Sanji and did not move at all.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

"The shield's material is indeed special; perhaps the Doctor will be interested." Seraphim Sanji examined the shield in his hand, a greedy glint in his eyes.

Seeing his shield taken away, Steve didn't hesitate at all. He quickly pulled a smoke grenade from his waist and threw it hard on the ground.

With a loud "bang!", smoke instantly billowed out, enveloping the surroundings in a white haze, and visibility plummeted.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Steve took out a sharp dagger, quickly ran to the wall, and forcefully cut the candy that was sticking to Natasha. He then turned around and helped Peter untie the restraints on the chair.

Supporting each other, the three of them rushed towards the entrance of the candy store under the cover of smoke.

As soon as they rushed out, the superheroes who were still fighting outside saw the three of them. Because of the Punisher's sudden betrayal, they were all on high alert and thought that the three of them had also been controlled. Without saying a word, they launched an attack.

"Hey, watch out! Do you want to kill me?!"

Peter reacted quickly, narrowly dodging Jessica Jones's punch. As he dodged the attack, he shouted loudly, his face full of helplessness and anxiety.

"Who knows if you're being controlled?"

Jessica Jones retorted loudly while continuing her attacks without stopping. Her eyes were full of vigilance and distrust, and every punch and kick she threw was full of force, making the surrounding air whistle.

They finally managed to subdue the Punisher.

"Stop! We won't resist!"

Steve was extremely anxious. He knew that such infighting would only make the situation worse. Without hesitation, he raised his hands and shouted, trying to calm everyone down and stop the pointless fighting.

His voice rang out loudly in the chaotic battlefield, carrying an undeniable sincerity as he hoped his comrades would listen to him.

"We are not under control; we now have two enemies."

Steve continued to explain urgently, the veins on his forehead bulging slightly with anxiety. While dodging his companions' attacks, he tried his best to make his voice clear to everyone so that they could understand the true situation.

"It's those two seraphim from the candy store who's behind this! They've controlled the Punisher and set up numerous traps for us. Everyone, stop fighting and let's deal with the real enemy!"
