A figure walked out from the flames, with an extremely powerful aura lingering around him. Seeing this, Thanos shook his head and smiled bitterly. The enemy was too vulnerable, and the Soul Gem that he had obtained after sacrificing everything was also taken away. He no longer had the confidence to win this battle.
Duke stood in mid-air, looking at the weakened Thanos, raised his hand, and prepared to give him a fatal blow.
In New York City, countless pale green light balls were attracted by the vortex at his fingertips. Each light ball represented a soul. Unlike other worlds, the souls on Earth in the zombie world were filled with endless pain and resentment, and malice that made people's scalps numb. If you are not someone who has been dealing with souls for a long time, any contact with them will pollute your spirit.
The vast green light spots gathered into a green ocean that covered the sky. Some of the stronger light spots were the souls of superheroes or super villains after their death. Their wills were so strong that they still retained some of their self after death. Faces twisted by resentment kept disappearing and reappearing, or devouring each other to become more powerful resentful spirits.
Duke brought Thanos here for the final battle because he had a trump card that required souls as fuel. In the Saint Seiya world, the strongest fighting skill mastered by Cancer Gold Candidate Duke was the Corpse Burial Soul Break! He used the spirits as gunpowder to make explosive burning moves. The more and stronger the souls were, the more powerful this move would be. Using the Soul Burial Break in New York, where countless strong men had died, even if it couldn't blow up the earth, it would be powerful enough to wipe North America off the map.
This is the trump card Duke prepared to hold a funeral for Thanos, the overlord of the universe, which is worthy of his identity.
The ever-gathering green ocean was only a prelude to the attack. Looking at the countless souls around him, Thanos could guess how terrible the attack he would face next would be, but he did not choose to escape, nor did he have any intention of surrendering.
In the past, when two people were on duty, there was nothing to do except bragging. But it was different when there were three people, because they were the Tea Wolf of the weird world, so there were more entertainment options.

Sensing Thanos's message, Duke sneered: "There is no such thing as mercy. I spared your life for a reason. You exchanged Gamora for the Soul Stone, and now you want to exchange it back. Who knows if this process will require your soul to compensate. It's safer to keep your life." Thanos did not respond, and his heart beat even stronger.
After that, best of three games became best of five games, then best of seven games, and so on. Three guys with extremely bad luck in playing cards sat together, playing until their faces turned red, and they completely forgot about the main business of the night, so much so that they didn't notice a newcomer standing behind them and watching for a long time.
"That's right, how about best of three?" Researcher Duke also had a bad hand.
The universe was destroyed by resource pressure. Only the screenwriter would believe this, Duke would never believe it. Since the Big Bang, the universe has been expanding. Before it stops, the resources of the universe will never be exhausted. Moreover, energy will never be exhausted. Let’s not talk about the law of conservation. Just take the dark matter on the other side of the world as an example. It is like the two sides of yin and yang. There are as many positive sides as negative sides. It is impossible for it to be exhausted.
"!"
but……
"Are you no longer obsessed with saving the universe?" Duke raised his hand and pointed, and a sea of green souls rolled over and drowned Thanos.
…
"I say, isn't it a bit unscientific to decide such an important matter by playing Landlord?" Detective Duke said in a deep voice, looking at the bad cards in his hand.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Duke held the Infinity Gauntlet in one hand and raised a hurricane with the other, sweeping away the gravel and dirt, revealing Thanos who was still breathing. His whole body was charred and no longer looked like a human, and several parts were almost carbonized, but his heart was still beating tenaciously.
Duke was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Thanos below was still a kind father.
"I know that. I've never seen anyone here who isn't called Duke..."
Thanos chose the universe and killed Gamora with his own hands in exchange for the Soul Stone, and also killed himself at the same time. His boundless love is truly touching.
Wakanda! The cosmic army brought by Thanos has retreated. After Duke returned with Coke, who was suspected to be Thanos, Supergiant ordered the troops to withdraw. With the Infinity Gauntlet as evidence, Coke's identity is beyond doubt.
"Second!" The landlord Chataro immediately threw away the bad cards in his hand. Fearing that the two would go back on their word, he quickly rinsed the cards.
The overflowing energy was like a beast that had escaped from its cage, and a circular shock wave erupted, instantly flattening the area near New York City. A layer of the ground was scraped off, leaving only barren, charred soil...
"I think it would be better if you split the four twos. The cards are too scattered. Don't keep thinking about the bomb." Newcomer Duke stood behind Chataro and saw that he was extremely conflicted, so he couldn't help but remind him.
Duke snapped his fingers, and a will-o'-the-wisp ignited in the center of the soul sea. In the combustibles formed by the soul, a cluster of white suddenly flashed, spreading layer by layer, and finally the flames covered all the green and turned into a dazzling white light. The violent burning caused a violent vibration like a volcanic eruption. From outer space, a white flare protruded from the surface of the earth.
"My name is Duke!"
After a long time, the dust gradually dispersed, and New York City no longer existed, leaving only a bottomless pit on the surface. The destructive power was so amazing that it could only be said to be the soul of the superheroes, and the quality was so high that it was outrageous.
"If you can do it, come on!" Chataro hadn't been having a smooth time tonight and was getting angry. When he heard this, he immediately retorted and only woke up after he finished speaking.
"There is still some time before the universe is destroyed. It is enough for Gamora to live out her life!" Thanos closed his eyes and opened his arms to welcome the arrival of death.
"Who are you?"
"Why... show mercy?"
What is the best way to kill time? Fight the Landlord! Chataro brought the playing cards, and only he could do this. Chataro had to work overtime today, so he wanted to let the other two take over the next shift. After being rejected, he decided to play the Landlord to decide the winner.

Duke threw the three gems of mind, reality and power into the zombie universe. He carried the space gem himself, returned the time gem to the Ancient One, and gave the soul gem to the Guardians of the Galaxy. Star-Lord invited the Ancient One to Vormir to revive Gamora, and brought Thanos, who was only one breath left. The key factor for success was still Thanos.
"What a great father..." Duke sighed, his eyes instantly becoming sharp: "In that case, I will fulfill your fatherly love!"
The unknown space was still as gray as ever. It was originally planned that Duke from the Detective World and Duke, a researcher from the Toaru Majutsu no Index world, would be on duty tonight. But Chataro from the Pleasant Goat World had nothing to do, so he temporarily joined the team.
A newcomer has arrived, so the card game can no longer be played. Chataro put the cards into the hair on his lower back and welcomed the newcomer together with the famous detective and the researcher.
Thanos took off the Infinity Gauntlet and threw it to Duke with all his might. In Duke's puzzled eyes, he said frankly: "The Time Stone and the Soul Stone, my daughter Gamora, the planet Vormir, I put aside my dignity and just want you to resurrect her!"
The rumbling sound resounded through the heavens and the earth, like a rising sun, and the dazzling white light pierced the sky. It was like a star exploding, instantly lighting up the whole world.
Speaking of this newcomer... his style is quite shocking, following the retro style of the haircut and country-style style from ten years ago. His side black bangs have a hint of white at the ends, which gives him the demeanor of the Funeral Family that was once so powerful both at home and abroad. The visual effect is chilling.
This look either shows that he just attended a comic convention, or the world he lives in is in the style of Fist of the North Star, and the newcomer is just a background minion.
Well, maybe it’s a Hong Kong comic!
