"The Galactus is virtually invincible."
After helping Joey remove the metal from his chest, Silver Slick carried the weakened Joey towards the sun, not forgetting to explain just how powerful his former master was:
"Compared to other more humanized gods, Galactus, driven by hunger, is more like nature itself on a cosmic scale."
Nature is, of course, cruel and merciless to the creatures that inhabit it.
"You're making it sound like we only have one option: sit and wait to die."
The warm sunlight quickly restored Joey's complexion, which had just undergone a major hemorrhage. He clutched the tarot card, now fused with a fragment of the Helm of Destiny, still shaken.
"Being killed by a tarot card is not a glorious way to die."
This unusual tarot card severed half of Joey's heart. He was already in a dangerous state of continuous internal bleeding when Thor used Gungnir to cut open his chest, and he was only kept alive by his own physical constitution and the light energy of Ultraman.
Although Thor genuinely intended to use Gungnir to open Joey's eyes, he was objectively a competent ripper, perfectly fulfilling the task of a surgical scalpel.
[..—]
The original, inside Joey's body, didn't dare to speak, but silently recovered its energy alongside him.
Based on the giant of light's speculation and a vague intuition, he probably believed that another consciousness still existed within Joey's body.
He could guess that something completely beyond their control must have happened when the Zarab aliens self-destructed.
This consciousness has no subjective thought, no objective logic; it is simply like the subconscious mind that ordinary humans use to maintain and control their breathing, heartbeat, and muscle movement.
The only difference is that this subconscious is probably not as peaceful as the subconscious of ordinary creatures, but rather harbors an endless desire for survival, destruction, and slaughter.
Currently, he is one with Joey and dares not let Joey lose consciousness, nor does he dare to combine the advantages of their species.
The convergence of Ultraman, who is inherently light, and Kryptonians, who are phototropic, could form an energy loop like a Möbius strip, infinite and inexhaustible.
If this power gets out of control, Lipia can't even imagine the huge mess it could cause.
Joey was completely unaware of the First Generation's concerns. All he knew was that since the Helm of Destiny incident, his thirst for blood had not surfaced for a long time, which was a good thing for everyone.
With that thought in mind, Joey examined the new tarot card over and over. The card had turned completely gold and, after being baptized by the cosmic energy of Galactus, a familiar silhouette appeared on its surface.
A knight riding a white horse, trampling the dead beneath his feet, with a skull-like face—the Grim Reaper.
The upright Death card represents endings, conclusions, conclusions, changes, transformations, and replacements. Upon seeing this card, Joey was immediately amused and exasperated: "Whoever gave me this card, thank you, you utterly useless riddle-maker."
For Joey, this tarot card was completely irrelevant and even caused trouble. The future images it presented were either incomprehensible or things that could be understood without even looking at the card.
Galactus is already at our doorstep. Even without tarot cards, he knows that everyone on Earth is in deep trouble!
"Galactus is a benevolent god, and that is his only weakness to us."
Silver Glider's words were not a compliment to his former master, but a statement of fact: "My continued existence is proof of that."
As a former messenger of Galactus who has been opposing Galactus ever since he broke free from Galactus's control and has been preventing him from devouring inhabited planets, Silver Stalker's cosmic energy can be taken back by Galactus at any time if he so desires.
The fact that Galactus still allows Silver Hand to exist speaks volumes.
"So what are you going to do? Lecturing him?"
Joey felt that Silver Slipper's words were just empty talk. What did he mean by a merciful god? He was about to swallow the Earth whole. Was it too late to talk about mercy now?
It is unwise to place one's hopes for survival on the mercy of others.
Even the original, who had remained silent, voiced his opposition in his heart, but what Joey didn't expect was that the original had another sentence to say:
[However, we can still try. As I said before, both sides should talk. The other side is a god who has lived for billions of years. Perhaps we can resolve the dispute peacefully by relying on our combined wisdom.]
Don't be too optimistic.
No one could understand just how torturous Galactus's extraordinary hunger was, but Joey could glean some insight from his own past experiences.
A starving person is generally unwilling to reason with others. As a visitor from the Land of Light, it is inappropriate for the original Ultraman to use his own race's moral standards to put himself in others' shoes.
[Ready to go? Let's set sail. This time, I'll be at the helm.]
The first generation's attitude was resolute. He was even more aware of the immense power that Galactus's existence represented, and he was even prepared to lose.
[We Ultraman aren't gods. No matter how hard we try, there will be lives we can't save, and ideas we can't achieve.]
"Don't show your weakness before the fight even starts."
That's what they say, but if Joey had to choose, he'd probably rather pack up and go home to deal with the Kryptonians, the Green Lantern Corps, and the new gods of Apokolips than go after Galactus.
Although Galactus often lives like a comedian in many stories, appearing and being instantly killed for no apparent reason, the one in front of us is the real Galactus, an invincible being.
Unless a vanload of Celestials suddenly flew over from somewhere in the next quarter of an hour and gave Galactus a righteous beating, Joey couldn't figure out how to win.
Will we win?
"We will win!"
With the help of a group of Spider-Men, Tony Stark exhausted all the usable materials in Stark Industries in an effort to create a giant energy cannon that could barely fire.
"Absolutely no problem," the Spider-Man from another world assured him confidently.
In his world, the Avengers used this energy wave to banish Galactus to the negative energy space.
With his doubts still intact, Iron Man had no other choice but to grasp at this last straw.
Still missing a few materials, Tony Stark had no choice but to bite the bullet and call Coulson.
When Silver Slip appeared just now, he had just had a heated argument with Nick Fury on the phone. Both sides exchanged warm greetings to each other's immediate family members, so asking for help now was a bit of a hassle.
The call connected. Iron Man said, "Coulson? Or Nick? I'm sorry for the earlier insults, but I need some supplies right now. If you don't give them to me—"
With a formidable enemy at hand, Iron Man figured the other party wasn't the type to be unreasonable. If they were, he'd pretend he hadn't said anything and lead his hundreds of Spider-Men to steal it.
"Just now?" Coulson's voice trembled on the other end of the line, muffled as if he'd just woken from a hangover: "Did Nick call you just now? Or did he use my phone?"
