Chapter 1010

Brutal!

Ruthless!

Vicious!

This was the conclusion Professor X subconsciously reached at the time after catching a glimpse into a corner of Hawk's mind.

At the lightest, the destruction of a family.

At the heaviest, the destruction of a clan.

A great slaughter to wipe out a species.

In the memory Professor X glimpsed, Hawk was either in the middle of destroying a family, destroying a clan, or even on the path to wiping out a species.

He had thought he had seen evil people, and could even imagine what the ultimate evil was.

But that was before this.

But after Professor X saw Hawk, the person he had previously considered the greatest villain—Sebastian Shaw, the Black King who had once attempted to trigger a global crisis—was nothing more than a minor character compared to Hawk.

Let's put it this way.

Compared to Hawk, Sebastian Shaw wasn't even fit to carry his shoes.

Therefore—

After Professor X returned from Cairo, Egypt, he chose to preach to Magneto, letting his good friend Magneto believe in humanity once again, but he dared not say to Hawk that things in Washington were wrong or anything of the sort.

The reason was simple.

If he preached to Magneto, Magneto certainly wouldn't kill him.

But if he tried to preach to Hawk?

Uh...

Professor X's intuition told him he would die, and he would die very quickly.

Because Professor X, who had glimpsed a corner of Hawk's memory at the time, still had a vivid recollection of one of Hawk's sentences.

Ask all the questions while you're hitting them!

This sounded like it was describing Hawk as being just like Magneto, a brute who only understood fists.

But...

The combat in that corner of Hawk's memory, as well as the scene where he knew from the very beginning that Mephisto was not to be trusted but kept giving him chances, and finally played the famous Hell Lord in the palm of his hand, told Professor X one thing.
