Peter's Debut: Battle Against the Black Hand

"Wow, man, you look absolutely furious!"

Looking at Tru, whose oppressive aura was instantly overwhelming in his rage, even Peter, whose current strength was measured in tons, instinctively felt that he could not confront him head-on.

Without a second thought, heeding the strong sense of crisis surging within him, he and Riley beside him leaped up almost simultaneously, dodging Tru's charge.

Then, just as Tru was about to fall off the railing before he could brake in time, they both shot out spider silk, trying to pull Tru back.

"So heavy...! My God! Dude, what did you eat to grow up like that? You're as big as an elephant, I can't even pull you back!"

It was this very attempt that led Peter to an even more astonishing discovery…

Even after mutating and becoming Spider-Man, he was still no match for the giant in front of him in terms of strength!

Even after Tru managed to stop himself from falling from the high-rise building thanks to the two men's help, the sheer force of his tense muscles and sudden burst of terrifying power easily shattered their spiderweb-like restraints!

This made Peter, who had initially thought his opponent was just a "normal person" with a slightly large build and had somewhat underestimated him, almost pop his eyes out in his subconscious, heartfelt exclamation!

No, man, is this right?

Is this really a power that ordinary people can possess?!

Could it be that this guy is also a superpowered individual like himself?!

Riley, on the other hand, seemed completely unsurprised by Tru's behavior.

After all, despite the fact that in the original story, after the newbie protection period ended, Toru was constantly thwarted when facing Uncle Long, and quickly lost the intimidating aura that a villain should have.

After being redeemed and joining the main cast, he completely transformed into a comedic character.

But ultimately, Tru's power is terrifying enough that he can single-handedly move a large amount of neatly stacked gold! Even solid gold statues made of pure gold!

Even a rough calculation shows that the pile of gold weighs around thirty tons.

The giant golden statues that were moved later weighed at least 100 tons!

Of course, this is the result after excluding those plots that are obviously too outrageous.

For example, it can easily smash through solid walls, shatter metal water tanks, wrestle with giant snakes tens of meters long, break rocks more than a meter thick with its bare hands, and even break free from being buried in concrete... These are all miraculous feats.

Otherwise, based on those astonishingly exaggerated displays of strength, Tru's power level is at least in the thousands of tons. In extreme conditions, it could even reach tens of thousands of tons, enough to go toe-to-toe with the Hulk!

Its resilience was so strong that even when District 13 collapsed and Tru was buried deep underground, he managed to save his life, at the cost of only getting his clothes slightly dirty!

So much so that Peter, who was still in the growth stage and whose power had not yet exceeded the hundred-ton level, was unaware that...

The "newbie monster" Riley assigned him was definitely not some random Tom, Dick, or Harry...

Instead, they are superhumans disguised as humans, capable of defying the laws of physics!

It's also thanks to Jackie Chan Adventures that, in essence, it's a battle of gods and magic, which downplays the presence of physical attacks...

Alternatively, you could put Tru in a neighboring production team, where the stats are at most a few dozen tons, and there are very few Kamen Rider productions with stats over a hundred tons as villains...

Even if Toru isn't the final boss, he should at least be an elite monster at the executive level who pushes the main characters to the brink of defeat and triggers their final form!

"The Black Hand gang is indeed difficult to deal with... You wait, I'll come to your aid...!"

Meanwhile, although the old man was successfully rescued, seeing the two "strangers" fighting with Tru and being temporarily at a disadvantage, Uncle Long could not simply abandon them and flee the scene.

Just as Uncle Long stepped forward, ready to fight alongside the two masked heroes, he suddenly felt that the surrounding environment had become a bit darker.

Subconsciously glancing around, I was astonished to find strange figures dressed in black ninja outfits rising silently from the shadows, defying common sense.

In the blink of an eye, Uncle Long was completely surrounded by layers upon layers of ninjas from the Shadow Legion!

"First it was the masked hero, and now Japanese ninjas have appeared... Oh my god, it feels like I've stumbled into some kind of anime convention."

Faced with the army of ninjas who appeared and charged straight at him—or more accurately, at the shield in his hand—without uttering a single word, even the well-traveled Uncle Long couldn't help but feel sweating profusely.

Even Uncle Long, who was already in dire straits himself, could only temporarily abandon the idea of ​​supporting Riley and the others while muttering to himself.

Instead, he firmly bound the shield to his hand, making sure it wouldn't be easily taken by the enemy. Then, Uncle Long transformed into Captain New York, using every trick in the book, from flying kicks to blocking, to fight back against the group of ninjas.

"Unfortunately, this isn't a furniture store, so Uncle Long can't get the venue bonus buff."

Of course, Riley wasn't so unethical as to make Peter fight a Hulk-level enemy right after leaving the starting village. In fact, the "starter monsters" he prepared for Peter were these shadowy ninja soldiers.

They are agile and nimble, numerous enough, capable of both ranged and melee combat, and know how to coordinate as a team, but their strength is clearly far inferior to Peter's. They are also immortal beings, so there's no need to hold back...

This is practically the perfect sparring partner tailor-made for Peter Parker. It's enough to allow Peter to quickly familiarize himself with his abilities in high-intensity real combat.

So, looking at Tru, who was charging in with red eyes all of a sudden and imposing manner.

Riley leaped forward, using his hundred-ton-like strength to clash head-on with Tru. At the same time, he took the opportunity to shout to Peter, who had intended to help.

"Hey... Spider-Man, some innocent civilians are in trouble over there. Go help them out. I'll handle things here. By the way, those ninjas aren't human; they're immortal magical creations. You can fight them to your heart's content."

"That's not fair, I haven't even had a chance to use my true abilities... Wait, Spider-Man? Are you talking about me? Hey, cool! That's a great name! Cough cough, I mean, I got it! I'm off!"

Because Riley's strength was already superior to Peter's before the mutation, Peter wasn't surprised at all when he witnessed Riley single-handedly holding his own against the behemoth that the two of them couldn't easily subdue together. Instead, he curled his lip and thought that Riley was indeed "acting" about him.

But soon, after realizing that the new term Riley was using was a hero's code name prepared specifically for him, the obedient, sensible, and easily appeased Peter felt a surge of excitement.

Peter raised his hand and launched two strands of spider silk, which connected to the ground on either side. He leaned back and, after a brief moment of charging, released his grip on the silk, letting his body shoot straight into the Shadow Legion like a cannonball!

"Get ready to face the Amazing Spider-Man—!"

"Ah! Just in time! Catch it!"

It was Peter's spontaneous shout that rekindled hope in Uncle Long's heart, who was gradually losing ground under the siege of the Shadow Legion.

When Uncle Long turned around at the sound, he saw Peter moving through the Shadow Legion as if it were empty, quickly tearing a gap and approaching him. Knowing that he could no longer protect his shield, Uncle Long didn't have time to think and took the shield down.

Then, holding your breath and concentrating, you rotate around your right foot, using the power of your whole body.

Just a second before the Shadow Legion swarmed forward and completely suppressed Uncle Long, he threw the shield far away towards Peter's location!
