Chapter 27 One Vs Five
"Ah!!" The Rhinoceros roared and rushed straight at Norton. This time, Norton didn't dodge but directly absorbed the impact. Norton was only forced to retreat a few steps. Under the Rhinoceros's incredulous eyes, he grabbed its horns with one hand and, with the other, delivered a powerful punch to the Rhinoceros's head.
"Boom!" Rhino's head instantly plummeted and hit the ground hard. He only felt a heavy blow to his head, making him dizzy for a moment. "Ho Ho!!" Venom and the Lizardman advanced together, raising their fists and striking at Norton. Norton remained unflappable in the face of danger. He raised his hands to block their fists, and the force from the collision blew around.
Mr. Negative's eyes fixed as astonishing negative energy erupted from his whole body, gathering in his hands. He then directed huge amounts of black and white energy waves toward Norton and the others. "Hyper! Clock! UP!" Everything around stood still, and Norton walked slowly among them. But to others, it seemed as if Norton had simply vanished.
"Ah!" Venom was hit by the energy wave and flew backward, smashing a big hole in the wall. "Ahh!!" Mr. Negative and the Lizardman felt a tremendous force strike them, and they fell to the ground, spitting out blood. The Lizardman, who was beaten the most, even passed out on the spot.
One! Two! Three! "Hyper! Rider! Kick!" Norton leaped lightly, instantly appearing above Green Goblin, and delivered a knight kick directly to him. Green Goblin couldn't react in time and was kicked forcefully. "Boom!" An explosion erupted in the hall, and Green Goblin's figure had long since disappeared. The other four looked at it all in a daze.
Hyper! Clock! Over! "Damn, I never thought it would be so strong." Mr. Negative's face was extremely ugly. He never imagined Norton's strength would be so formidable. Had he known, he wouldn't have dared to confront him even ten times.
"Your Excellency, I was only bewitched by Green Goblin; I really don't want to be your enemy," Mr. Negative pleaded for mercy. He knew the saying: if you preserve the green hills, you won't have to fear running out of firewood. Norton's only response was a punch the size of a sandbag that knocked out Mr. Negative in one blow. Just as Norton wanted to continue fighting, he heard an angry roar from Venom behind him.
"You killed my father!" Venom shouted, launching at an unprecedented speed, but this speed was not enough in Norton's eyes. Norton firmly caught Venom's fist.
"Roar!" Suddenly, the Rhino, who had fainted on the ground, got up again and charged at Norton. Norton quickly punched Venom in the abdomen, knocking him into the air, and then turned to face the charging Rhino. One! Two! Three! "Hyper! Rider! Kick!"
Norton used the knight kick again. He stood and used the roundabout knight kick against the oncoming Rhino. "Boom!" The armor on Rhino immediately exploded, and Alexei inside the armor was engulfed by the aftermath of the explosion.
"Ah!" Venom roared, his arm transforming into a meteor hammer shape, and swung it at Norton's head. Norton stretched out his hands and crossed them to block Venom's attack. Norton's feet sunk into the ground, but his stance remained firm and motionless.
"Harry Osborn, it's still not too late for you to turn back. All this is because of the black liquid on your body," Norton urged, not wanting to harm his childhood friend. Yet, what he didn't know was that Harry, possessed by Venom, had already killed many.
"I've already tasted a lot of those snacks, and you will be next!" Venom exclaimed.
The nature of Venom is such that it doesn't make people better; instead, it often worsens them. Why did Harry, who was a good person, become like this? Is this another butterfly effect at play?
"... Sigh." Norton's eyes became sharper; he would not kill Harry, as it was his own selfish wish.
"Boom!" Norton exploded at an unprecedented speed, instantly knocking Venom to the ground. He stretched out his hand to press on Venom's chest, attempting to tear him away forcefully.
"Roar!!" Venom bellowed, knowing the person in front wanted to separate him from Harry.
"Shut up, beast!" Norton shouted. Despite his efforts, he couldn't tear Venom off Harry's body and couldn't help but curse in his heart, wondering if a sonic attack or high temperature was needed to force separation.
Suddenly, a mysterious space-time vortex appeared on the ground below them, sucking them in. Chris, who arrived later, found no other figure except the dying super villain lying on the ground.
