an enemy not proficient in \"time\" might not see it, but in the eyes of an enemy proficient in \"time,\" his contracted timeline was indeed like a house leaking wind everywhere.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The reason is simple.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawk relied on the \"Time Stone\" to contract his own timeline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Still the same point.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It takes a massive amount of time for a Saint who has just awakened their Cosmo to promote themselves to the stage of a Gold Saint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And this is based on the premise that every Saint can be called a dragon among men.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But how long did Hawk spend?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Awakening his Cosmo in a year or two, to this day, it has only been a short five or six years, and he has walked a path that other Saints might not finish in a lifetime, and he is still continuing.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawk knows full well why this is the case.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He cheated.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, he used the \"Mind Stone\" to greatly enhance his mental world, and then he used the \"Time Stone\" to contract his timeline...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This is also the fundamental reason why the main multiverse is so angry and will stop at nothing to prevent him once it senses that Hawk is attempting to transcend.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because in the eyes of the main multiverse, you are only this powerful because you grew up relying on us, and yet now that you have grown up, you don't think about repaying them, but instead think about breaking away from them and attempting to be independent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What kind of behavior is this?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A traitor?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A double agent?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In short, Hawk used the \"Time Stone\" to contract his own timeline; he did not contract his own timeline by his own power, although after contracting his timeline, he has been patching the dense loopholes in his timeline every moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He has also patched many loopholes, but there are still many loopholes on his timeline.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Just like the time galaxy that appeared above the altar right now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His time has indeed been contracted into a time galaxy belonging solely to him, but there are countless dense, protruding lines entangled on this time galaxy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>These dense, protruding lines are all loopholes existing on his time galaxy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even if Hawk's time galaxy is covered with countless loopholes, this still does not change one fact.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His timeline has already contracted.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A collapsed house is called a ruin, but a house that is leaking wind everywhere but has not yet collapsed is still called a house.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Therefore—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The lines protruding from my time galaxy are indeed wounds in my time.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"And you can indeed enter my time through these wounds.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But even if there are many wounds in my time, so what?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hawk looked at Apocalypse and smiled softly: \"This still does not change the fact that my time has contracted;
