Chapter 2001: Declaration and Explosion

The helmet opened to reveal Pepper’s worried face. “Tony, how are you? Are you hurt?”
It had only been ten minutes since she received the notification from the Kamar-Taj sorcerers.
When she got here and saw the enemy army, as well as the bodies of the four-armed monsters on this side, she couldn’t help but worry.
Although Tony survived every battle, he was always on the verge of death. What if he seriously injured himself this time?
Tony’s slightly excited expression instantly turned a little unnatural.
Previously, he had promised to be a stay-at-home dad and look after his daughter. In the end, he went to steal the Stones a few days ago, and now, his wife had to lead an army to save him. It was too embarrassing.
While the couple was being lovey-dovey, Luke observed Pepper’s armor carefully.
Without the gold and red which the tycoon had clung to for years, Pepper’s blue and silver armor was much more pleasing to the eye.
On a man, this nanosuit would lack sharpness.
But on Pepper, who was tall and had long legs and a slender figure, the suit showed off her curves — it was hard not to look good.
It wasn’t like Luke had never seen Pepper before. She did have a curvy waist and long legs.
But could the back of the suit compare with Steve’s ‘America’s ass,’ and the front with Selina’s C+? Sorry, Luke had never seen that before.
Fine, Luke was just purely wondering what Selina would look like in this nanosuit – but it was a 0.001-second thought.
Tony’s Mark 85 had already vividly demonstrated the advantages of the nanosuit.
With his ordinary human body, he had been able to beat up Ebony Maw, and then Corvus Glaive and his wife, by relying on his ever-changing armor.
Tony had experienced many battles in 2023, and his technology had advanced at a crazy rate.
To cut a long story short, ten seconds after the portals appeared, Earth’s allied forces had assembled.
The Kamar-Taj sorcerers were proficient and efficient at using portals.
The teams on the other side of the portals moved forward in formation. The sorcerers only needed to pull the portals backward, and everybody would be teleported to the other side.
It was a pity that he couldn’t learn the powers of the Vishanti! Luke simply gave up on feeling envy. In any case, he had Clarice, the Inhuman who could open a portal.
Although it wasn’t as mighty as a direct teleportation portal from an alien planet, it wasn’t hard to send troops all over the world.
…
The four generals couldn’t help but look back at Thanos.
It wasn’t that they were afraid. They just wanted to confirm that they could kill the allied forces of Earth later.
Thanos threw away the stone in his hand. “You were unwilling to accept defeat, but what happens in the end? You still have to face me.”
He slowly stood up. “I thought that by destroying half of life, the other half would thrive in this universe.
“But you’ve shown me that’s impossible.” Taking a step forward, he mumbled, “As long as there are those who still remember the past, they will never be able to accept the future. They will definitely resist.”
Thanos picked up his helmet and looked indifferently at Luke and the others. “Now, I will turn this universe into atomic dust and create a brand new one…”
He gripped the hilt of the double-headed blade and lifted it up. “…The lives here will no longer resent what was lost, but only be thankful for what was given. A universe that knows how to be grateful.”
Luke curled his lip and activated Elementary Sound Wave. “You lunatic.”
He made sure that Thanos heard this provocation, and didn’t deliberately suppress it.
Tony and Steve couldn’t help but raise their eyebrows.
Their throats bobbed, but they didn’t say anything about this ‘crude warning.’
They weren’t familiar with Luke, and he had helped them a lot just now.
The Dark Knight cursing Thanos was a little unconventional, but reality wasn’t like a PG13 blockbuster. Who said that Mr. Wayne couldn’t curse?
Luke didn’t care about his temporary teammates looking down on his manners.
In the face of a great enemy, nobody would bicker with him about cursing the enemy.
On top of that, he was also drawing aggro.
Of everyone present, Luke was definitely the least afraid of Thanos.
Even if Thanos snapped his fingers after obtaining the Infinity Glove, Luke would dare charge forward and self-destruct without hesitation.
It was just a million credit points for the Level 2 clone. Luke could afford it.
Thus, giving Thanos a deep impression of him before the show and increasing the possibility that the other party would attack him when necessary was a very profitable choice.
If he killed this guy himself, Luke would definitely get a lot of good stuff.
Thanos didn’t just know how to fight and kill. He was a true tyrant of the universe and an all-round genius with great strategic knowledge.
His rise to power could be adapted for an online novel.
For Luke, Thanos was a super big VIP royal gift bag.
But pies didn’t fall from the sky for free, much less a three-star Michelin pizza supreme.
He had to do his best to fight for this small chance to get a bigger piece.
…
Hearing Luke’s strange reply, Thanos was also surprised.
Clearly, not only could this tyrant give an overbearing pre-battle speech in English, he could also understand this rude word.
Even after the four generals were trounced, he hadn’t said anything scathing.
On this side, when Luke and the other three saw that they were surrounded, they didn’t complain about how unfair it was either.
Cursing Thanos as a lunatic at such a tense moment of battle was simply out of place.
But in the end, Thanos was a tyrant of the universe.
In the half of the population of each race that he killed, there were a lot of people who cursed him before they died, and there was no lack of Earthlings.
Surprise flashed across his face as he slowly raised the giant blade with one hand and pointed it at the army of Earth in front of him.
Attack!
The army around him, which had been accumulating strength, took action and launched a full-scale attack on Earth’s allied forces.
The big worm-like battleships swayed like evil dragons in the air.
Small and medium-sized fliers surrounded them to provide enough cover.
The heavy tanks on the ground started to speed up, and the foot soldiers followed behind them.
The first to attack were still the air forces on both sides. Numerous missiles and cannons began to fire at each other, and even more were intercepted as explosions filled the sky.
Fight head-on with the ground troops? Sorry, that wouldn’t happen.
In fact, the ground troops on both sides were quite resistant to air attacks.
There was no one common protective barrier.
However, the large ground machines and the vibranium weapons of the Wakandans had their own shields.
If the air units shifted firepower to attack the ground units, they might be destroyed by the enemy’s air units first.
Thus, the sky was filled with smoke and plasma cannon beams as both sides directed firepower at their counterparts.
