"Huh, he can still move!"
A moment later, Goku saw X-24 climb out of the mud again, completely unharmed, and his eyes lit up.
For him, only such a battle could improve himself; if he truly defeated him in one go, it would be too boring.
"Uncle Logan was right, you're indeed not easy to deal with!"
Goku struck a Turtle School pose, a serious expression on his face.
"Rock-Paper-Scissors!"
"JAN!"
"KEN!"
"PA!"
Next, Goku began to unleash various moves he had learned and created against X-24.
Under Goku's assault, X-24 had no power to fight back at all, being tossed around like a sandbag.
This scene thrilled Wolverine and the others, while commander and Dr. Rice broke out in cold sweat.
Goku's power was so immense that X-24 couldn't resist it, and his speed was so fast that their eyes could barely keep up.
However, gradually, the expressions of Wolverine and the others became somewhat solemn, while commander and Dr. Rice breathed a sigh of relief.
This was because no matter how many times X-24 was knocked down, no matter how much physical trauma his body sustained, he would quickly recover.
He was like an unkillable cockroach, standing up again and again, angrily counterattacking Goku.
In contrast, Goku's breathing was no longer as steady as it was at the beginning, clearly indicating some physical exertion.
While it wasn't much, if the consumption continued, it would eventually run out.
By then, the situation would be dire.
It was precisely because they understood this point that the expressions of both sides changed.
"Give me the gun."
Wolverine quietly obtained the pistol Gabrielle had taken from her boyfriend, then pulled out an Adamantium bullet hidden in his pocket.
That bullet was originally meant for himself.
After Professor X's death, he had planned to use that Adamantium bullet to end his own life.
Now, this might be the last hope to take down X-24.
Only an Adamantium bullet could possibly pierce X-24's Adamantium skull, penetrate his brain, and thus end X-24.
If it couldn't end him, at least it could make him lose his memory and no longer be controlled by Dr. Rice.
However, just as he loaded the bullet and prepared to ambush X-24 with a shot, the battle on the field changed again.
Goku kicked X-24 away, then scratched his head and said:
"You're not my opponent. Give up. If you don't, then I'll have to use more powerful moves.
By then, I can't guarantee you'll still be alive."
After ten minutes of fighting, he found that this martial artist was quite stubborn, simply refusing to give up no matter how much he was hit.
Therefore, this battle had lost its meaning for him, and he intended to end it.
"Ah!"
X-24 climbed up again, letting out a beast-like roar, and angrily charged at Goku once more.
Seeing this, Goku could only helplessly begin to gather his energy, preparing to unleash the strongest move he had learned from Master Roshi.
He generally wouldn't kill people unless absolutely necessary.
He was a martial artist, not an assassin; his deceased Grandpa Gohan and Master Roshi had both taught him not to kill easily.
Therefore, even when facing bad people, if they were willing to change, he would show mercy.
Just now, when he used the Power Pole to deal with those off-road vehicles, his target was the vehicles, not the people inside them.
But the opponent was clearly unwilling to give up or change, so he could only go all out and give the opponent a final dignified end.
This was also a sign of respect for his opponent.
"Ka…me…"
Blue energy began to swirl between his palms, forming a glowing sphere of raw power. The air around him shimmered with heat and light.
"Ha…me…"
Goku thrust his hands forward, the energy blasting forth like a comet.
"HAAAAA!!!"
A powerful beam gathered in Goku's hands, compressing into highly concentrated energy, emitting a dazzling light.
Then, it shot out in the form of a light beam, striking the charging X-24 with full force.
"Wha...what is that?"
Wolverine's side and Dr. Rice's side were simultaneously dumbfounded, impressed by something they didn't understand.
They didn't recognize the Kamehameha, but they instinctively felt how terrifying it was.
"It seems like the same ability as Scott and Alex!"
At this moment, Professor X, sitting in the back row, spoke.
Scott was Cyclops, and Alex was Cyclops's brother, Impact; both could emit powerful and destructive energy beams.
He hadn't expected that Goku, in addition to his powerful physical body and illusionary clones, could also emit energy beams.
This was equivalent to having three mutant abilities.
Even thirty-five years ago, very few mutants possessed three abilities simultaneously; at most, they had two.
For example, the powerful White Queen possessed psychic abilities and a diamond-hard body.
However, with X-24's displayed healing factor, even if he were hit by the energy beams of Impact and Cyclops, it would be difficult to kill him.
One must remember that Wolverine's healing factor could withstand nuclear bombs and Phoenix's attacks.
Even if X-24's healing factor wasn't as strong as Wolverine's in his prime, it would be very difficult to kill him with just energy beams.
However, the next second, Professor X's eyes widened.
Because after Goku's move ended, the flesh and blood on the charging X-24 had completely vanished, leaving only the Adamantium skeleton fused with his bones inside his body.
Clearly, in this state, X-24 was as dead as could be.
For a moment, Professor X didn't know if the cloned X-24's healing factor was inferior to Wolverine's in his prime, or if Goku's energy Impact was simply too powerful.
On the other side, seeing X-24 reduced to just an Adamantium skeleton, Dr. Rice's legs instantly gave out, and he knelt on the ground, muttering in disbelief:
"How is this possible, how is this possible? How could my 24 lose to a mere brat? Something must have gone wrong, it must have..."
"Dr. Rice, we need to escape!"
commander's reaction was clearly faster; after confirming that X-24 could no longer heal, he immediately hoisted Dr. Rice and prepared to escape in the big truck.
Wolverine's reaction was also quick; he quickly shouted to Goku:
"They are the culprits! Don't let them escape!"
"You bad guys, don't even think about escaping!"
Hearing this, Goku recalled the evil deeds of the Facility that Gabrielle had recounted, and an angry expression appeared on his face. He raised his hand and pointed at the open truck:
"Dodon Ray!"
An energy ray struck the big truck, which immediately exploded, blowing commander, Dr. Rice, and the others who hadn't yet gotten in, into the air.
Dodon Ray was the assassin Tao Pai Pai's technique.
However, Goku had already learned this technique during his three battles with Tao Pai Pai.
He just felt that Dodon Ray's power wasn't as great as Kamehameha, so he still preferred to use Kamehameha in real combat.
But Dodon Ray also had its advantages: it was faster to activate, and consumed much less ki than Kamehameha.
Seeing the commander and Dr. Rice blown away by the exploding truck, Wolverine once again extended his claws and charged forward.
He intended to kill these two to eliminate future troubles.
Otherwise, they might later face pursuit from the Facility...
