Kapitel 21: Chapter 18
Planet Hulk Arc Part 2
Kade POV
I trudged through the alien marketplace, eyes darting left and right. "Bruce?" I called out, but the only response was the cacophony of alien tongues and bartering.
This planet was a nightmare, a hellscape of oppression and violence. I had to find Bruce before it was too late. This planet plus the Hulk will not have a good outcome.
As I wove through the crowd, I overheard snippets of conversation. One alien in particular caught my attention. "Did you see the green one in the arena the creature may have a chance against the silver savage?!"
'Green one? That's Bruce'I thought quickly turning to the small alien.
"Where is this arena?" I interrupted, causing the alien to flinch.
"Over there," he pointed, eyes wide. "But be careful, stranger."
"Thank you," I muttered, setting off toward the massive structure looming in the distance.
The roar of the crowd grew louder as I neared the arena, a mix of excitement and bloodlust that made my stomach churn. I slipped into the stands, blending with the throng of spectators.
Hulking monsters clashed with gladiators, and the air was thick with dust and the metallic tang of blood. In the center of it all stood the Hulk, his green form a tower of rage and power. Each of his roars drowned out the crowd's cheers as he decimated his opponents with brutal efficiency.
Kade's eyes widened in shock. "That's not Bruce," he whispered to himself. "He's... different somethings wrong"
Before I was able to think the announcer yelled
"NOW FOR WHAT YOU ALL HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR CAN THE GREEN CREATURE KNOWN AS THE HULK OUR NEWEST AND UPCOMING GLADIATOR DEFEAT THE CHAMPION OF THE ARENA THE SILVER SAVAGE" and with that the entire crowd went into an uproar all chanting for either the hulk or this silver savage?.
The gate opened and to my shock, the silver surfer a friend walked into the arena but he looked different for starters he wasn't his usual shiny self his skin was darker and a bit dull and he had a command disk on him.
I felt anger the rail my hand was on dented due to my anger not only did these monsters enslave innocent people but they forced 2 of my friends into a gladiatorial arena.
The fight began the hulk rushed at the silver surfer who dodged his attacks with ease and he began his counterattack as he began to punch the Hulk hurting him but that didn't stop the Hulk. The crowd's cheers grew deafening as the Hulk overpowered the Surfer, slamming him into the ground with a roar that echoed through the arena. He began to punch punch punch and punch as the entire crowd went silent and gasped the hulk was enjoying this.
"Bruce, what have they done to you?" I whispered, feeling a pang of despair. The Hulk moved with a terrifying intelligence, every strike calculated, every move precise. This wasn't the mindless rage I knew—it was something far more dangerous and he was liking every bit of attention the crowd gave him.
The Surfer struggled to rise, his command disc sparking and malfunctioning falling off of him as he called his board to him.
Suddenly, a burst of cosmic energy erupted from the Surfer, and the command discs embedded in every slave short-circuited. The arena descended into chaos as slaves tore off their chains and fought their way to freedom.
"NO MORE SLAVES" The surfer yelled as the entire arena went into chaos the gladiators, now free, began to scatter. The Hulk led the charge, his roar a rallying cry. Kade knew he had to act fast if he wanted to find Bruce and get some answers.
He pushed through the panicked crowd, his eyes fixed on the fleeing gladiators. But just as he reached the tunnels, a group of Red King soldiers blocked his path.

One soldier sneered, "Where do you think you're going, outsider?"
Kade clenched his fists, feeling a surge of power course through him. "Out of my way," he growled.
The soldiers lunged at him, but Kade moved with a speed and strength he hadn't felt since arriving on this planet. His fists flew each punch landing with a bone-crushing impact.
The fight was over in seconds. The soldiers lay sprawled on the ground, groaning in pain. I stood over them, chest heaving. "You should've listened," I muttered, stepping over their bodies.
As I continued through the tunnels, I couldn't help but notice how much stronger I felt. My powers were returning, slowly but surely. "It's the red sun," I realized. "My body is adapting."
The thought gave me a glimmer of hope. If I could get my powers back, I could stop this madness and get Bruce home.
Suddenly, I heard a commotion up ahead. I sprinted toward the noise, emerging into a large chamber where more gladiators were preparing to escape. At the center of it all was the Hulk, towering over the others, his eyes filled with cunning intelligence.
"Bruce!" I shouted, pushing my way through the crowd.
The Hulk's head snapped toward me, a snarl curling his lips. "Kade?" His voice was deeper, more guttural.
"What happened to you?" I demanded, stepping closer. "This isn't you."
The Hulk's eyes narrowed. "I'm free now, Kade. Free from everything."
"But at what cost?" I argued. "Look around you! This place is a nightmare."
Before the Hulk could respond, the ground shook violently. We turned to see the Silver Surfer, hovering above the chamber, his cosmic energy radiating with a blinding light.
"Everyone, get out of here!" the Surfer commanded. "I'll hold them off."
The gladiators didn't need to be told twice. They fled into the tunnels, disappearing into the darkness. I hesitated, looking between the Surfer and the Hulk.
"Superman, go!" the Surfer urged. "I'll be fine."
Reluctantly, I turned and followed the fleeing gladiators, my mind racing. We had to find a way off this planet, and fast.
Kade and the gladiators emerged from the tunnels into the harsh light of day. The city was in chaos, with slaves rioting and guards struggling to maintain order. Kade spotted a group of civilians being harassed by Red King soldiers and felt a surge of anger.
He moved with purpose, his enhanced abilities making short work of the soldiers. Each punch and kick landed with precision, his strength growing with each passing moment.
As the last soldier fell, Kade turned to the civilians. "Are you okay?" he asked, his voice softening.
One of them, a young woman with wide eyes, nodded. "Thank you. Who are you?"
"Just someone trying to do the right thing," Kade replied. "Now get to safety. Things are about to get a lot worse."
The civilians hurried away, leaving Kade alone amid the chaos. He took a deep breath, feeling the weight of the situation pressing down on him. But he couldn't afford to give up now. He had to find Bruce, stop the Hulk, and get them both off this planet.
As he scanned the city, he spotted a familiar figure in the distance. The Hulk, still leading the charge, his roars echoing through the streets. Kade set off after him, determination burning in his eyes.
"Bruce, I'm coming for you," he muttered, sprinting through the chaos. "I won't let you become a monster."
The city was a war zone slaves revolting against the Red king's empire, but Kade moved with purpose, his enhanced senses guiding him through the madness. He would find Bruce, no matter the cost. And when he did, he would make sure the Hulk never hurt anyone again.
'God where did he go, how did I lose an 8-foot giant green guy on steroids'Kade thought to himself as he searched for the Hulk.
'I need to get to higher ground so I can get a better view of this place but I can't fly,guess I'll have to see about that leap tall buildings in a single bound Superman's known for for'Kade thinks smirking to himself as he crouches down squeezes his legs against the ground and pushing off in an instant he was high in the sky as he saw the entire capital in smoke as the fighting continued and the source of it all the Hulk leading an army of freed slaves and gladiators outside of the giant city.
"There you are you glorious bastard," Kade says as he quickly lands on the ground causing a small earthquake before quickly jumping again this time in Hulk's direction.
"AHHHHHHHHHHH" A yell broke Kade out of his stupor quickly turned to see the red king and his guard the dead head setting ablaze a group of innocent civilians and houses.
"NOOO" Kade screams out as he changes direction using whatever power his body can generate at the moment and tackles the Red King.
"YOU MONSTER THOSE ARE YOUR PEOPLE INNOCENT PEOPLE WHO HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS"Kade yelled as he began punching down on the red king who was protected by his power armor.
"They are mine they belong to me as with this planet and once I kill you I will torture them"The Red King retorts
Kade in anger started tearing apart the red King's power armor and started throwing down punch after punch on the Red King breaking the ground around them and putting them in a crate. But he was quickly blasted on his side by the black robot assassins that were always on the Red King's side.
The Deaths Head guards continued to blast Kade as he put his hands in front to block the concentrated attack. Even with his nerfed durability, he gritted his teeth because of the pain, he was distracted as the Red King was able to get up and smash Kade into the ground grabbing his leg and throwing him side to side.
"YOU DARE PUT YOUR DIRTY PEASENT HANDS ON ME THE RED KING RULER OF ALL OF SAKAAR I WILL PEEL YOUR SKIN AND WEAR IT AS A CAPE YOU INSECT I AM A GOD HERE" The Red King yells as he begins punching down on Kade.
"I know your kind you all think that the world is your plaything and that you can do whatever you want because you have it better than everyone else even with a little bit of power but trust me I've knocked down so many of you I've lost count, "Kade says as he stands up wiping blood off of his face.
"And who are you to defy me the Sakaarson God of Sakaar" The Red King says as he points at Kade.
"I'm Superman," he says as he speed blitzes towards the Red King grabbing him by his face and dragging him across the ground before twisting his body or throwing him into a building. Kade quickly put his hands up as he blocked the attacks of the Death Head as they began opening fire on him this time his body could adapt to the attack so he found it easier to handle.
"Right let me deal with your toys first, "Kade says as he grabs a piece of debris and throws it at a group of Deaths Head crushing them before jumping at one tearing its head off of its body and crushing it.
Turning to where the Red King was Lade walked over to see that he was gone he turned to see the Red King flying away as he turned his head back angry with a mix of fear on his face.
A crowd formed around Kade as they all began to clap and cheer for him he was the second person that day to ever go up against the Red King and come out alive.
Kade smiled at the people and waved at a couple of children before remembering what he was trying to do before the Coward King interrupted him.
'Hulk, where have you gone now'Kade says to himself as he takes off in the original direction the Hulk and his band of merry misfits were going in.
