The dark sky was like it had been dyed with blood.
Smoke from fires spread everywhere, and warning fires were lit. The whole area was filled with the loud sounds of cannons, mixed with terrible screams and angry shouts.
A dark red army of skeletons poured in like a tide, going towards all sides of the city. People running away had faces full of hopelessness and falling apart, unable to tell if this was real life or hell.
The white president's office had its flag taken down.
Two skeletons holding metal swords were climbing and playing on the flagpole. The green grass of the president's office yard had been dyed dark red by a thick fog.
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: ???
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Oh my gosh!
Doujin Artist: What's up with these skeletons? Deadpool, is this the crowd you said you would get going?
Curly-haired Guy: Hey, are you telling us a joke about hell?
Amegakure Village's Angel: A little trouble? Deadpool, is this what you call a little trouble?
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Okay, maybe the trouble is a bit big. But please believe me, this is not what I wanted! That darn Virgil, he dared to trick me! That scroll was totally a trap!
Shark-Faced Guy: It's kind of hard to believe anything you say right now, after what you've done.
Lin Fengjiao: This kind of terrible thing happening is really wrong!
This is an Actor: Tell us what's going on, starting with Virgil.
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: He was a big bearded guy I met at a bar. He said he was a royal heir from ancient Egypt and that a gang of thieves had stolen his family treasures. The most precious of them was a scroll that could call up dark servants.
Doujin Artist: And then you beat up the thieves and took the scroll for yourself?
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: No, no, no, he gave it to me himself! He said he could see that I was a leader of the new age and wanted me to make the most of this chance. But the jerk lied to me, those dark servants don't listen to their master at all!
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: ...How could you be so naive as to believe that?
Doujin Artist: It's not just about being naive, I think Deadpool was just blinded by the "leader of the new age" title.
Lazy Kitten: Like a teenager with middle school disease acting like they can save the world?
Machete Girl: Deadpool made a big mistake and is really stupid. But that Virgil probably had bad intentions from the start. I don't think I've seen him in any Marvel stuff before.
Lazy Kitten: Not only is there no such person, but there shouldn't be a scroll that can summon skeletons either. I've been a Marvel fan for ten years and I can promise, there's nothing like that in the movies or comics.
Curly-haired Guy: So what happened? You followed that guy's advice, you idiot? You're really an idiot!
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Yes, I am an idiot. When I put my bloody handprint on it, I was feeling pretty good about myself. But it turned out he needed more than just my blood! He needed my perfect body too.
Doujin Artist: ?
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: ?
Lazy Kitten: W-wait, a perfect body? Things are starting to go in a weird direction!
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Yes, you can tell by the way I look now.
The information was sent, and Kagami's head moved.
In a dark corner, an old soldier in uniform came into view. And under the old soldier's armpit, there was a strange head wearing a red mask.
That was Deadpool now, Deadpool with only a head left.
Skirt-Flipping Maniac: Pfft.
Doujin Artist: Hahahaha, wow! That's so awful! Just a head left? Leading the charge with your head?
Scarlet Lotus Fairy: So that's what he meant by needing your body.
Lazy Kitten: No wonder Deadpool knew the old soldier had armpit odor, now I get it.
Lin Fengjiao: Is he really still alive?
"Of course, of course I'm alive!" Deadpool's head said, his voice still full of energy. "I won't die from something like this, I'm going to twist Virgil's head off with my own hands!"
"The heck, who are you talking to?" The old soldier was startled by his sudden words and almost dropped his head.
"Of course, I'm talking to my little sweeties, do you want to say hi to them?" Deadpool suggested.
"No thanks, I've already learned how scary your little sweeties are." The old soldier said, his face twitching. "Thanks to you, now we're both criminals in America."
Deadpool comforted him: "Hey, don't be so down! You should be happy! The government has gotten rid of hanging. It's just the electric chair. I've always been excited about it."
The old soldier got quiet, his face even darker.
Doujin Artist: Hahaha, the electric chair! Don't scare the old man!
Lazy Kitten: The fact that the old man didn't kick your head like a ball shows that he's really well-behaved.
Machete Girl: So what the heck is that scroll, what group could make something like that? I don't remember any undead race in Marvel.
This is an Actor: Don't worry too much about these details. Comics and movies are just bits of information, and they don't tell you everything about reality. The Marvel universe is an open, vast world. Anything could happen. And the fact that he went after Deadpool shows that he came prepared.
Amegakure Village's Angel: He went after him, or just met him by chance?
This is an Actor: It's very likely he was being targeted, and the other person knew he was immortal. Because according to the rule of equivalent exchange, one normal person's life force couldn't possibly support such a huge undead disaster.
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: So, I was just being used by that darn Virgil as a tool? Oh, no! Darn it, I'm going to shove my guns in his mouth and blast him!
Soul Society's Villain: First, you have to find him again. If he was really trying to mess with you, his name probably wasn't even real.
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Crap, you saying that makes me kind of hopeless.
Doujin Artist: Don't be hopeless, think about how to fix the mess you're in. If you keep letting this go on, the city's going to be done for.
Foul-Mouthed Mask Guy: Oh, right! I still have to save the city, the city needs me! Just a sec, I need to grow my body back!
Buzz.
Just as he sent this message, a red figure in armor flashed across the sky.
