Chapter 556
The two finally realized they had not seen Natasha.
You must know, Natasha was on the same team as Clint.
"Clint, where is Natasha?"
"To obtain the Soul Stone, someone must sacrifice themselves; Natasha sacrificed herself."
"That person was originally supposed to be me," Clint said.
Upon hearing this, Captain America
did not know what to say for a moment.
And Bruce fell directly to his knees on the ground.
If one were to say who had the best relationship with Natasha in the Avengers Alliance,
Clint would definitely rank first.
Not because the two were lovers, but because they were partners who had cooperated for over twenty years, comrades in life and death.
This kind of comradeship cannot be replaced by ordinary people.
As for romantic feelings between men and women, there was a little, but not much.
After all, Clint had his own family, his own wife and children.
Moreover, he was a person who cared very much about his family.
Between him and Natasha, it was a relatively pure comradeship.
And between Bruce and Natasha, there was both friendship and love.
Of course, there was less love.
And more friendship.
When Bruce joined the Avengers Alliance, Natasha can be said to have played a very important role in it.
Later, the Hulk's influence on him became smaller and smaller, until he completely fused with the Hulk into one person.
Natasha also played a relatively important role in that.
If Natasha and Clint were comrades in life and death,
then Bruce and Natasha were the best of friends.
Whether it was him or the Hulk, both were good friends of Natasha.
Hearing the news of Natasha's death at this moment,
he naturally found it hard to accept.
"But just now—"
"It's useless. The person who takes the Soul Stone cannot use the power of the Infinity Stones to resurrect; Natasha cannot come back," Clint said.
His wife and children had been saved and returned; he should have been very happy.
But Natasha's death meant he felt little joy at this moment.
The most helpless thing was that because of Jiang Hao, Natasha's sacrifice was useless.
It was as if you had chosen to be a traitor on September 2, 1945.
Or chosen to defect to the Kuomintang in 1949.
Young Tuo Ni also noticed the situation on Clint's side.
He had already walked away but ran back.
Then he learned the news of Natasha's sacrifice.
Hearing the news that Natasha had sacrificed herself,
Young Tuo Ni also paused for a moment.
It seemed he had not expected that Natasha would actually sacrifice herself.
After all, in Young Tuo Ni's impression, Natasha was a very smart woman.
She could be an agent; she must have been cautious.
After all, agents without brains do not live long.
"Mr. Jiang," Young Tuo Ni looked at Jiang Hao.
"If it were you, is there a way to save Natasha?"
Everyone looked at Jiang Hao, including Clint.
The reason he had not chosen to leave was that just now, when Jiang Hao repaired the six Infinity Stones, it made him feel that Jiang Hao might be able to save Natasha.
But at this moment, he obviously could not speak up.
After all, he and Jiang Hao did not know each other.
"Saving her is certainly possible, but are you sure you want to save her?"
"Do you not want the Spirit Fruit anymore?"
Hearing Jiang Hao's words, Young Tuo Ni did not know what to say for a moment.
Captain America and Bruce Old Ban Na also tightened their expressions.
They had already seen part of the effect of the Spirit Fruit with their own eyes.
Although they had not personally witnessed the other world's Tony Stark displaying divine power after eating the Spirit Fruit,
after Jiang Hao directly brought them back to his own world and then, with a relaxed expression, repaired the six destroyed Infinity Gems, they no longer had any doubt about Jiang Hao's words.
A fruit that only gods can eat; what kind of wonderful thing must that be?
The gods Jiang Hao spoke of certainly would not be gods like Odin.
Perhaps they were the true gods, those all-powerful, omniscient and omnipotent true gods.
Such a precious thing, could Young Tuo Ni bear to part with it?
"I want it," Young Tuo Ni said.
"But… Natasha… she's my very good friend."
Young Tuo Ni spoke these words only after summoning great resolve.
After all, all people are selfish.
Before the Spirit Fruit—a fruit only deities can eat, one that grants immense power to those who consume it—who could possibly not want it?
"So, I am willing to give up the Spirit Fruit. I beg you to bring Natasha back."
"Are you certain?"
"Certain." This time, Young Tuo Ni did not hesitate, for he feared that if he hesitated again, he would never muster the courage again.
"Very well. I respect your choice."
"But this is the last time I'll help you."
"Thank you," Young Tuo Ni said.
"Give me the Soul Origin Stone," Jiang Hao said to Clint.
Upon hearing Jiang Hao was willing to help, Clint immediately handed him the Soul Origin Stone he had brought back.
Clint did not know what the Spirit Fruit was that Jiang Hao and the others had just spoken of.
So he did not know what Young Tuo Ni had sacrificed to save Natasha.
After Jiang Hao took the Soul Origin Stone from Clint,
his will immediately seeped into the Soul Origin Stone.
Then Jiang Hao saw Natasha's soul inside the Soul Origin Stone.
Immediately, Jiang Hao activated the power of Zhengyang.
He began forcibly peeling away Natasha's soul.
The power of the Soul Origin Stone could not resist Jiang Hao's strength.
Natasha's soul was directly peeled free by Jiang Hao.
As for the physical body, simply recreate one.
Jiang Hao shaped a new body for her, based on his memory of Natasha's appearance.
Soon, a young Natasha—wearing a black leather suit, with chestnut-red hair, plump with collagen, and stunningly beautiful—reappeared before them.
"Where am I?" Natasha opened her eyes, regaining consciousness, clearly still unaware of what had happened.
"Natasha!" Clint was the first to cry out excitedly.
"Natasha." That voice clearly belonged to Bruce Old Ban Na.
