Captain America plummeted from the rooftop.
In the blink of an eye, he had descended several meters, closing the distance to the ground.
However, as a seasoned warrior, Captain America had extensive combat experience and knew how to adapt and use his environment to his advantage.
With a swift twist of his waist, he angled his body toward the building's wall.
Boom!
He slammed his shield into the wall, embedding it deep into the structure. The impact tore a deep gash into the side of the building, revealing the steel bars beneath.
Stone chips flew up, striking his face, but he showed no sign of injury. The shield had significantly slowed his fall.
Just ten meters from the ground, Captain America jumped, his powerful legs driving him into the earth with such force that a deep crater formed beneath him. He landed safely.
"Phew."
Captain America exhaled in relief and looked up at the rooftop with a solemn expression.
At that moment, the citizens of Washington saw the newly resurrected Captain America, who had just appeared in the headlines and was still a hot topic worldwide.
"Is that really Captain America?"
"He's really been resurrected!"
"Wait, didn't he join the Avengers of S.H.I.E.L.D.? Who is he fighting against?"
"Look, there's Cyborg and Iron Man in the sky!"
"Wait, isn't that Wonder Woman on the edge of the rooftop?"
"Oh my gosh, are the Avengers fighting the Justice League?"
The citizens gawked, their expressions a mix of shock and disbelief.
Had they seen all the heroes appearing on the rooftop, they would have been too stunned to speak.
The conflict between the Justice League and the Avengers had just erupted. In reality, the entire confrontation had lasted only a few minutes.
The citizens of Washington had only just realized that an extraordinary battle was taking place right above them, one involving terrifyingly powerful figures from both sides.
The Justice League had long been established and had been gradually winning over the hearts of the public.
The Avengers, though newly formed, had already become a global phenomenon, especially with Captain America—America's first true hero—helping to shape the spirit of the nation.
The passing crowd gasped.
As the situation escalated, they quickly scrambled to leave the area, fearing for their safety.
Meanwhile, passersby farther away looked up at the building's roof, now scarred by a deep gash. They saw a tall, beautiful figure, glowing with golden light.
Without hesitation, she leaped from the edge of the roof, plunging straight downward.
"What...?"
The crowd stared, stunned.
They immediately recognized the figure.
There were few female superheroes known to the public, and Black Widow had only recently made her public debut at a press conference held by the Avengers.
So, as of now, there was only one female superhero who had captured the public's attention.
That was Wonder Woman, whose rise to fame had been meteoric. Her autobiographical film had grossed over a billion dollars, and she had become a dream goddess to many.
Her bold, wild leap from the rooftop seemed perfectly fitting for a god.
Boom!
With the eyes of hundreds of onlookers trained on her, Wonder Woman plummeted like a meteor, her speed accelerating as a terrifying sonic boom echoed through the air.
The deafening sound rang in everyone's ears as she continued her descent.
Boom!
Immediately afterward, Wonder Woman crashed to the ground, her long, slender legs not even slightly bending.
She forcefully pressed her feet into the earth, causing the ground to sink ten centimeters. Instantly, a crater with a diameter of more than ten meters appeared, with a spiderweb-like crack pattern radiating in all directions.
"Damn!" "So horrifying!"
The crowd in the distance stared at the scene, their faces pale as they realized the sheer magnitude of the power before them. To them, Wonder Woman's actions were beyond human.
Even Hill and the other S.H.I.E.L.D. members, who were observing the battle from the sky through the city's surveillance system, were stunned. Among them, Colson sighed deeply.
He was the first person in S.H.I.E.L.D. to encounter Wonder Woman.
Back when he was dealing with the Thor incident in New Mexico, Wonder Woman's appearance and the destruction of the technological creature known as the "Destroyer" made him the first to understand the true power of gods.
Even now, watching it again, the shock in his heart had not faded.
"Ready to support!"
Colson took a deep breath and snapped out of his daze. He turned to Acting Director Hill and said, "We can't rely on the Avengers to stop the Justice League. Batman's power far exceeds what we imagined. The Avengers need support from the Sky Mothership."
"You're right," Hill responded after a brief pause. She nodded and issued orders. "Everyone, prepare to deploy. Head to downtown Washington and stand by to support the Avengers."
"Yes!"
The S.H.I.E.L.D. agents nodded, their faces solemn. From the image they had just witnessed, they understood that they were about to face a fierce battle.
Meanwhile, downtown Washington...
The battlefield between the Justice League and the Avengers.
When Captain America saw Wonder Woman fall from the sky, his heart sank. He realized just how outmatched they were.
If all the Avengers were assembled, he believed there might be a chance of victory. But the Justice League was not just Wonder Woman.
They had more people than the Avengers.
"This is trouble."
Captain America sighed in resignation, the shock of the situation still settling in. Even with his own confidence, he couldn't shake the feeling that he wouldn't be able to defeat Wonder Woman easily.
The power she had displayed went far beyond what he had ever considered humanly possible.
"The power of the gods..."
He gritted his teeth, squeezing his shield tighter, his expression hardening with resolve.
"Humph!"
Wonder Woman's voice was cold, her gaze lofty.
"A mortal struggle."
Whoosh!
With a burst of speed, she was off again, her figure a flash of lightning. She struck Captain America once more, sending him flying backward.
He was thrown a hundred meters, knocking down over a dozen streetlights and plowing the ground beneath him into a deep trench. He landed, unable to muster any strength to fight back.
Rooftop.
After handing the captain America over to Wonder Woman, Anton, disguised as Batman, felt a sense of relief.
Although the captain has the strength to face anyone on par, they are still far from being able to face a god-like figure such as Wonder Woman.
The transformation from the super soldier serum can at most turn the captain into soldiers on Earth, but they stand no chance against Wonder Woman, a god-level being whose power far exceeds Earth's level.
From Anton's point of view, although Wonder Woman might not reach the level of the universe , she is still far beyond the Earth level—at least on par with someone of galactic level . According to Anton's records, a headbutt from her could take down Superman, no question.
His thoughts flashed. Anton then shifted his focus to the battlefield in front of him.
The battle between the four Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Black Widow, and Hawkeye was becoming more intense.
Black Widow and Hawkeye had both been injected with the Extremis Virus, which not only gave them the ability to unleash thousands of degrees of heat but also provided remarkable self-healing abilities.
While the turtles' thick skin and tough flesh allowed them to suppress Black Widow and Hawkeye, they found it difficult to land a decisive blow on them.
Meanwhile, on another part of the battlefield, Otto and Rumlow were engaged in a far less frantic fight.
In the battle between Otto and Rumlow, things seemed to be tipping in one direction. Rumlow had been using his own power to face Daredevil and Venom, but he couldn't handle it. He had been thoroughly beaten into misery.
As the captain of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s rapid response force and a member of Hydra hidden within S.H.I.E.L.D., Rumlow's abilities were not weak.
The main problem, however, was his big mouth. It would have been fine dealing with Daredevil alone, but Venom was attracted to the fight and began to chase him down relentlessly.
Boom!
Rumlow crashed into the roof's attic entrance, buried under rubble and bricks, unable to get up for quite some time.
No matter how advanced his equipment was, facing a joint attack from Venom and Daredevil, it was impossible for him to turn the situation around.
As for Dr. Otto Octavius, he was also in a bad position. He had chosen to fight his old enemy, Spider-Man, but he hadn't anticipated the large number of Justice League members involved.
Green Arrow, observing the situation, realized that he had been overlooked and was furious. After a moment of thought, he decided to aid Spider-Man.
Let's not forget that Dr. Octopus first appeared on the Manhattan Bridge in New York. Arrow and Cyborg had once defeated Dr. Octopus.
Although Arrow had merely been a backup in that fight, he was more than willing to step in again and add to Dr. Octopus' misfortune.
Once the battle began, Spider-Man and Dr. Octopus changed positions, scurrying across the walls of the building, sending shouts of fear through the office workers inside.
The workers recognized the identities of the combatants. These were not strangers—both had made a huge impact in New York.
Spider-Man!
Spider-Man, a member of the Justice League, had appeared in the Daily bugle numerous times and was frequently reported on by New York media.
Dr. Octopus (Otto), too, had recently reemerged in the public eye, following the latest Avengers news.
"What's going on?"
"What did Spider-Man fight with Doctor Octopus?"
"There were Captain America and Wonder Woman just now... Did the Justice League really go to war with the Avengers?"
"Aren't they all superhero groups?"
"God, can someone tell me what happened?"
The battle between Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus caught the attention of the onlookers nearby, leaving them shocked.
At this point, the conflict between the Justice League and the Avengers had escalated into a full-blown battle.
Although the rooftop fight hadn't yet come into the public's view, based on what they had seen so far, it was clear that Wonder Woman and Captain America, Spider-Man and Doctor Octopus, Cyborg and Iron Man—these three sides of the battlefield were all engaged in combat.
They were wreaking havoc around this innocent building—quickly.
The public saw another figure join the battle.
Green Arrow fired an arrow with a suction-cup tip. Under the gaze of hundreds of eyes, he arrived on the roof of another building, bent his bow, aimed at Dr. Octopus, and released the arrow, letting go of the hand gripping the arrow's tail.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Arrows flew one after another, striking the joints of Dr. Octopus's mechanical arms.
Click, click, click!
An explosive fire ignited in the building almost instantly.
Dr. Octopus's mechanical arm, hit by the explosive arrow, emitted black smoke—not too strong, but still noticeable.
"Damn it!"
Otto's face changed. He manipulated his slightly damaged mechanical arm, attempting to reposition it to avoid further arrows from Green Arrow. But he greatly underestimated Arrow's ability.
Whoosh! Whoosh!
Another arrow sliced through the air.
This one was an acid-tipped arrow. Upon hitting the robotic arm, the arrow released a powerful acid that immediately began corroding the arm, which had already been damaged by the explosive arrow.
Even though Otto's robotic arm might have been reinforced with vibranium or adamantium, any metal reacts to acid.
Zi Zi Zi!
Otto's mechanical arm malfunctioned, with its circuits damaged. The arm, once firm and precise, became limp, like a hand opening and closing weakly.
Click! Click!
At the same time, the fierce battle tore through the wall where the arm was fixed, like paper, and Otto lost his focus.
Whoosh!
Otto's pupils shrank as he fell helplessly from mid-air toward the ground.
His situation was no different from that of the captain America earlier.
However, Otto lacked the resilience of the captain America. In addition, the acid corroded his mechanical arm, rendering it useless.
"It's over..."
Otto closed his eyes, seemingly accepting death's arrival.
Whoosh!
Just as he was about to hit the ground, a web shot through the air and caught him between the two buildings.
"What?"
Otto opened his eyes and looked up at the sky.
His body swayed as the webbing held him aloft. The images and figures around him grew clearer as his vision adjusted.
At this moment, Spider-Man was seen perched on the web between the two buildings, striking the classic Spider-Man pose that most Europeans couldn't replicate.
He was balancing in mid-air, seemingly walking in the clouds, then spread his arms in a relaxed, nonchalant manner.
It seemed as if he were saying,
"Take a moment, brother!"
"Ah..."
On the rooftop of another building, Green Arrow watched this scene and smiled. Spider's way of saving people didn't surprise him at all.
