New York, Mage Temple.
Black scales covered Nagini's whole body. Under his hazy eyes was a pale face.
To be honest, Nagini's current state was very bad.
Ultron was more difficult to deal with than expected. Although in terms of life level, the fifth stage Basilisk was stronger than the fusion type monster that Ultron forcibly created, the Basilisk was congenitally weak.
Otherwise, half of its body wouldn't have been blown off.
Even if Nagini, who turned into a dragon, absorbed a large amount of energy after the explosion of Mount Fuji, it was ultimately a drop in the bucket.
This could be seen from Nagini's sickly pale face that the battle with Ultron was not easy for Nagini.
But even so, looking at Nagini's suddenly gloomy face, everyone couldn't help but panic.
A person's name, a tree's shadow.
Nagini, Earth's strongest Superhero.
With his own strength, he saved Earth several times and had the power to overturn everything. Even if he was injured, everyone present understood how powerful this monster's body was.
To be honest, if he could, Strange didn't want to do this.
But the problem was, Strange knew what Nagini would do if he gave the Time Gem to him.
You know, it was impossible to have two Time Gems like the Time Gem at the same time.
Because the rules of the universe did not allow two Time Gems to appear at the same time.
This also meant that if Nagini took the Time Gem back to the past, then he couldn't use the Time Gem to make Domumu compromise.
Moreover, if the Time Gem was given to Nagini, would Nagini still stop Ultron from destroying the world like he is now?
It was a bit cruel to say, but this was Strange's decision.
He knew very early on what would happen today, and he also knew that Sam and Nagini's child would die. The person who decided to kill them was Strange.
Between one person's death and 100 million people's death, if you had to choose, who would you choose?
Strange chose the latter. Moreover, the death of Sam and Nagini's child would not only save one or two hundred million people, but more than seven billion lives on Earth!
Although Strange felt sorry for Nagini, this deal was worth it!
So at the next moment, Strange said with a firm gaze, "Mr. Nagini, I am …"
However, before Strange could finish his words, a pair of dark golden snake eyes coldly looked at him. In an instant, a pair of dark golden snake eyes looked at him coldly.
"Rumble!"
Strange felt as if his scalp was about to explode. It was as if he could see that in the depths of the boundless universe, in the midst of the raging spatial storms, there was an indescribably huge serpent that was looking down at him with cold eyes.
In an instant, Strange's back was drenched in sweat. Feeling the palpitation in his heart that had not dissipated for a long time, Strange's expression became uncertain.
He didn't know why, but he had a bad feeling!
Due to the eight-hour time difference, it was already past noon in Wakanda. But in New York?
In the dark dawn, the first ray of sunlight pierced through the thick darkness.
He didn't know if it was a coincidence or not, but under the intersection of light and darkness, Nagini and the group of so-called superheroes in front of him were divided into two completely different groups, as if they were foretelling something.
Nagini's cold eyes swept around. Apart from Strange, there were too many familiar people in the scene, but in the end, his eyes stopped on the captain – Roger.
Looking at the captain standing opposite at this moment, Nagini was silent for a moment.
"I saved you."
A year ago, the captain, who was piloting the Wanderer mecha, and Tony, who was piloting the Wanderer mecha, encountered the first level 4 kaiju that invaded the earth.
In that battle, they were completely defeated.
With the technology of the earth at that time, let alone a level 4 kaiju, even a level 3 kaiju would be difficult to deal with.
To be honest, if it weren't for Nagini's timely arrival, the captain would have died long ago.
But now?
With a tough face and a straight back, the captain remained silent in the face of Nagini's words.
On the one hand, it's because he didn't know what to say, and on the other hand, it's because the captain didn't have the face to say anything. After all, he owed Nagini.
His cold eyes moved away from the captain, then looked at the huge black mecha behind the captain. His sharp eyes penetrated the hard shell of the mecha and looked at the embarrassed Captain Rhode inside.
"Why are you here?"
Nagini's question made Rhode, who was already in a dilemma, even more embarrassed.
Last time, when they fought against the dark elves, Rhode's spine was seriously injured because he blocked Malekith's fatal blow for Tony. His lower limbs were permanently paralyzed.
This blow was extremely fatal for Colonel Rhode, who was born in the military.
Just when he was about to die, it was Nagini who helped him stand up again and gave him a new life. Even the house where he was recuperating recently was Nagini's.
Therefore, in the face of Nagini's question, Colonel Rhode was very embarrassed, because he didn't know what to say.
Should he say that for the safety of the earthlings, his wife and children should die?
Not to mention that Nagini has helped him so much, even if he didn't help him, he still wouldn't be able to say such a thing, so Colonel Rhode could only choose to remain silent like the captain.
His eyes swept over Strange, the captain, Colonel Rhode, and other people. Ironically, they clearly know that they have wronged Nagini, but they chose to stand silently beside Strange at this moment.
Until Nagini's gaze fell on Saul. Saul's face was full of guilt, but unlike the others, he didn't choose to remain silent.
"I'm sorry, Mr. Nagini, I'm very grateful for your help during this time. I also know that if it weren't for you, I would have died in the hands of the kaiju, but I'm sorry, as the guardian of the 9 territories, I have to stop you."
Saul is not a fool. He knows very well that the reason he escaped from the kaiju so many times was not because of luck.
After all, once or twice is luck, but eight or ten times, or even dozens of times, it can't be explained by luck.
This is also the reason why Saul wanted to challenge Nagini before. He knew very well that those kaiju were afraid of Nagini, so they didn't kill him.
This also means that Nagini is the most powerful creature on this planet.
But as he said, Saul is from Asgard, he is the guardian of the 9 territories.
Before Nagini came, Strange told everyone clearly what will happen to the earth if the time stone is handed over to Nagini.
Even though he knows that this is unfair to Nagini, Saul has to do it.
Regarding Saul's answer, Nagini didn't say anything. Although his face was ugly, Nagini wasn't as angry as he imagined.
After all, whether it is the captain, Strange, or Thor, they can only be regarded as acquaintances, not friends of Nagini. Although he did help these people, it was just a matter of convenience. What really made his face ugly?
Taking a deep breath, Nagini stared at Tony, who was wearing a golden-red armor not far away. His face changed for a while. "Are you going to stop me too?"
Everyone present knows each other, but who has the closest relationship with Nagini?
It can only be Tony Stark.
The two have known each other for a long time. Nagini is the second largest shareholder of the Stark group. Tony's girlfriend, Potts, is very good friends with Nagini's girlfriend, Sam. The relationship between the two was facilitated by Nagini and Sam.
The two sides have a lot of dealings and help each other on weekdays, so their relationship is naturally not ordinary.
However, facing Nagini's question, Tony's face was a bit stiff. "Nagini, I'm not trying to stop you, it's just …"
Taking a deep breath, Nagini didn't let Tony finish. He directly pointed to the distance and interrupted him rudely. "Then go, take Rhodes away, and I can pretend that nothing happened."
But Tony shook his head with a helpless expression. "Can you calm down? I know you're in a lot of pain right now, but you have to calm down."
But in the face of Tony's dissuasion, Nagini's lips curled into a bitter smile.
"Calm down?
How can I calm down? "
Looking at his former best friend, Nagini's face had a bit of a self-deprecating or sarcastic smile. "Sam is dead, and so is the child. I have no other way except for the time gem."
Taking a deep breath, Nagini looked at the group of silent people around him. A hint of madness flashed in his eyes. He looked at Tony with a final warning look. "I'll ask you one last time. Are you leaving or not?"
But in the end, Tony shook his head. From Nagini's point of view, what they did was disgusting, but from the human's point of view, this was what they had to do.
Their eyes met, and the atmosphere gradually became heavy. The expression on Nagini's face gradually dissipated. From Tony's eyes, he saw the same guilt as the others, but more of that determination.
Yes, this is Tony's final choice. As expected of my friend, Nagini, he's really cold-blooded to the extreme.
Black scales began to cover Nagini's body at a speed visible to the naked eye. His body began to expand, and his black and white eyes were gradually replaced by a pair of cold snake eyes.
Looking at the people in front of him, a hoarse voice filled with killing intent rang in the air. "Whoever stops me today, I'll kill them!"
