Chapter 67: Facing Hulk.
"Felix, why are you suddenly interrupting our fight? I haven't won yet!!" Hearing the familiar voice, Thor immediately complained.
"Forget it, Thor. You two have been fighting like this for long! The sun will set soon, and we don't have all day to watch your show!" Felix waved at Thor casually.
"No, we haven't decided winner or loser yet, and I haven't just started enjoying the fight! How can you say it will end now?" Thor was reluctant to stop and argued back.
"Well, if you're not going to take it seriously, maybe I'll stick around and keep you company for a while." Felix turned to Thor with a smile, speaking in a teasing tone.
"I'm not going to fight you like some pervert!" Thor muttered to himself. He clearly knew Felix's strength —so there was no point in provoking him.
"But… I can stop, what about him? It won't follow your plan!" Thor was full of doubts. The green monster's strength was almost as clear to him as his own. Without weapons, it was roughly equal, but it seemed to grow stronger the longer it fought. He couldn't figure out why!
"Relax, leave it to me!" Felix said confidently.
Felix and Thor could talk it out, but Hulk, who was standing off to the side, grew even angrier. It didn't care who suddenly appeared in front of him. In Hulk's mind, the plan was simple: knock down anyone who stood in his way.
Anyone in front of him is an enemy! That was Hulk's strange motto and his ultimate goal.
So Hulk gathered all his strength and charged at the small figure standing before him, determined to teach that person a lesson for blocking his path!
Who is the strongest fighter in the Marvel universe? Many would say Thor, while others would back Hulk.
Felix wasn't sure about this debate.
But if anyone deserved the title, it had to be Hulk. He was known as the strongest, powerhouse of the Marvel world — whether or not he won, he always charged forward.
In Thor: Ragnarok, facing the fire giant Surtur and the Goddess of Death, Hela, Hulk still dared to rush headlong into battle. That alone proved he was a fearless warrior.
So facing Felix— a seemingly weak human — Hulk felt no fear, only rage.
Felix didn't face Hulk directly but could feel his movements behind him.
"You asked for this, Banner. Don't blame me if it gets rough!" Felix's expression remained calm, but he thought silently to himself.
Hulk's speed was already very fast, and being so close, he almost instantly reached Felix's back. His huge fist came smashing down on Felix.
At that moment, Hulk was almost ready to celebrate victory. His fist was less than a dozen centimeters –from Felix's body, yet Felix didn't seem to have reacted.
But it's never wise to assume victory too soon—no matter how confident you feel, the outcome can always be unpredictable.
That's just how Hulk is.
At this moment, Felix's speed surged like Superman keeping pace with the Flash. His physical fitness greatly enhanced his speed, making him incredibly fast.
What does the world look like through the eyes of a speedster? That was Felix's wish — to see the world like the Flash and Quicksilver before he got his superpowers. But now, experiencing it firsthand, all his doubts vanished!
At this moment, Felix could clearly perceive the world as speedsters do. Everything around him seemed to slow down dramatically, like a movie playing in ultra slow motion. What felt like several minutes to Felix passed in only a single second to everyone else.
If his body could keep up with the speed of his thoughts, then what he accomplished in those few minutes was merely a second in the eyes of others.
In that tiny window before Hulk's fist was about to land, Felix moved swiftly—he twisted his body, faced Hulk, then circled around him, carefully observing every detail. For a brief moment, he even entertained the thought of examining what material Hulk's shorts were made of, but quickly dismissed it.
After that, Felix returned to face Hulk directly. As the huge fist came crashing toward him, Felix struck back with a lightning-fast punch.
Immediately afterward, he relaxed his mind and felt the world snap back to normal speed, regaining his usual appearance.
From Hulk's perspective, the figure before him flickered strangely—from turning his back to suddenly facing him—and then launched a punch right at his fist.
Hulk didn't try to analyze what just happened; all he knew was that the thin man standing before him was going to be smashed into a pulp by his own punch.
"Good opportunity!"
Thor whispered to himself. He had noticed Felix turn his back to face Hulk and thought that now was the perfect moment to strike. –A sneak attack combined with Hulk's power could overwhelm Felix, and that would mean no chance for Felix to win.
Almost instinctively, Thor tried to launch a sneak attack, not in ill intention, just to see Felix embarrassing himself.
But then he stopped.
He didn't feel ashamed about the thought of sneaking up on Felix. Though Thor couldn't pull off such moves against others, he didn't care much when it came to Felix, who always relied on his superior strength to bully him.
Yet, a sudden bad feeling crept into Thor's heart. Even if he attacked now, it might not hurt Felix at all.
If that happened, when Felix reacted, Thor might end up embarrassed and even get beaten himself.
Thinking this, a cold shiver ran down Thor's spine.
Boom!
Felix's fist collided with Hulk's fist with a tremendous impact.
Felix's punch moved at ultimate speed, creating a sharp crack of sound and a gust of wind that blew forward.
Hulk's massive body was lifted like a small boat caught in a giant wave and instantly blasted away.
Boom!
Hulk's huge form flew straight through most of the Colosseum, covering five or six hundred meters almost instantly.
His speed didn't lessen at all; with a loud crash, he smashed into the outer walls of the Colosseum, sending debris and dust flying into the air.
"So, Thor, what were you just doing?"
Felix pulled back his fist and teased Thor with a grin.
"I... I didn't do anything! You must have read the situation wrong!"
Thor denied it quickly, joking nervously. The idea that the big guy who could even match him was knocked back so far by just one punch was too embarrassing to admit!
