A fierce pain erupted from Killian's chest, but he didn't lose his will to fight. He let the Holy Energy Sword remain in his body. With his right hand clenched into a fist, he slammed it into Kurohane's face.
Bang!
Killian's devastating punch was once again caught by Kurohane. Although his fist emitted a terrifying heat, Kurohane held it steadily, crushing it. The high temperature distorted the air but didn't affect Kurohane at all. A thin layer of Holy Energy covered his palm, isolating it from the heat.
"It's no use," Kurohane said, looking at Killian, who had pushed his body heat to the limit. "The gap between us is too great. You don't even know who you're facing."
Kurohane let go of his right hand from the hilt of the first sword, summoned a second one, and plunged it into Killian's body. Killian's head was severed before he even had a chance to scream. The head, which was floating in the air, was instantly hit by a beam of Holy Energy, erasing its existence completely.

However, the main body of Killian that Kurohane was holding had not yet died. His entire body was emitting terrifying energy fluctuations that flickered at an increasing frequency, exactly like the bald man who had blown himself up earlier.
Seeing this, Pietro bent down slightly, ready to move the spectators behind Kurohane. Red energy also appeared in Wanda's hands. She was preparing to use her superpower to suppress the explosion when the headless body detonated. After the previous incident, she felt quite confident.
Even Tony repaired his damaged Iron Man armor, widening the energy shield to protect Pepper in front of him. After a moment of hesitation, he also protected his ex-girlfriend, Dr. Maya, behind him.
Pepper glared, her gaze sharp. 'I knew it!' she thought. 'He definitely still has feelings! Tony, just you wait, you brat!' However, her body was very honest and leaned even closer to Tony's back.
Dr. Maya, as Tony's ex-girlfriend, saw his solid back protecting her, and a hint of regret crossed her heart. Although she had given her research results to Killian, she still resented Tony's indifference. Tony had once casually written down a chemical formula overnight that could advance her research. If only Tony had truly helped her, the Extremis Virus might not have had any side effects. But it turned out that Tony wasn't interested in her research, only her body.
Pepper, as the CEO of Stark Group, met Killian to establish contact with the Extremis Virus research team. She found that Tony, the playboy, had truly changed. He not only respected every valuable piece of research but had also become a responsible superhero! Pepper felt she was falling in love again.
The only person there who knew what Dr. Maya was thinking was Kurohane, but he didn't have time to read other people's minds. Holding the biological bomb that was about to explode was exciting enough! The easiest way was to throw it into the Mirror Dimension, where there were no living creatures, so it could explode freely. But the problem was, he wouldn't be able to show off. This was a bit disappointing.
So, Kurohane decided to put on a show for everyone!
He directly threw Killian's headless body into the air, stretched out his palms, and aimed them at the body.
"Galaxy Starburst!"
Countless dazzling white glowing energy clusters emerged from Kurohane's palms, like a small galaxy, instantly surrounding the detonating Killian.
Boom!
Killian's corpse exploded in mid-air, but the white galaxy enveloped the resulting fiery explosion. Wrapped in the soaring flames, it shot into the sky like a giant dragon rising upward, passing the highest point of Stark Tower. It continued to rise until it reached the location of the previous nuclear bomb explosion, where it formed a white ball and then suddenly detonated.
The explosion was like a giant flashbang bursting in the New York sky! The name of the move, Galaxy Starburst, was, of course, a joke. As the strongest physical attack of Gemini in Saint Seiya, it was clearly different from the move Kurohane had simulated using Holy Energy. But it had to be said, the move looked really cool! If Kurohane could use Dark Energy simultaneously, he would use it as a base color to simulate the dark color of the universe, so the stars in the galaxy would look exceptionally bright.
Kurohane watched his self-created flashbang explode without flinching. He nodded in satisfaction, then retracted the wings on his back and walked slowly toward Wanda and Pietro. He remembered how in the original movie, one of Wanda's mistakes caused the Avengers to be attacked by public opinion.
"See?" he said to Wanda seriously. "In the future, when you find a bomb that's about to explode in a crowd, throw it into the sky. Pay attention to the important point, you have to throw it high into the uninhabited sky so the blast force is released."
"I... I understand," Wanda replied.
It was the first time the twins had seen Kurohane's serious side. He acted cruelly and decisively. Even when he swung his sword to kill, he didn't hesitate, and his way of handling explosives felt a bit strange. Throwing a bomb hundreds of meters into the air in one second—was this something a beginner with newly awakened superpowers could do? In any case, this was not the right way to teach.
"Kurohane, I'll leave this to you, I have to go save Rhodes!" Tony was not stupid. The gazes of the two women behind him were almost burning his back. What was a love triangle had now become a "hell" for three people. If he didn't leave, he would definitely be in trouble!
So, after a brief instruction, fire came out of his feet, and he took off immediately. "What about Dr. Maya? She's your ex-girlfriend! Should we invite her to the party tonight?"
The jet stream under Tony's feet became thicker, and he shot directly into the clouds!
