Druid in the Marvel Universe Chapter 96: In This World, All You Need Is a Face!

Steve and JJ stood on opposite sides of the bar, their large hands clasped together. Ginny crouched on the bar, her small hands holding onto their big ones, counting down, "3, 2, 1, GO!"

Alvin watched as, at Ginny's signal, the two massive arms, one black and one white, suddenly tensed and strained.

Alvin was a bit worried about his bar. The bar made a creaking sound that set his teeth on edge at the spots where the two strong men had their elbows braced.

The two men, who had easily defeated Shangqi, now had serious expressions. Neither had expected the other to be so strong!

Alvin could guess why Frank had run out earlier. This guy really cared about saving face!

The two men were deadlocked for about a minute. Steve was the first to let out a muffled roar, revealing two rows of white teeth through his thick beard. His face turned red, and the veins on his forehead looked like they were about to burst.

JJ didn't look as impressive. Being black, he naturally looked younger, and he didn't have a big beard. Although he was also glaring and growling, compared to Steve, he seemed a bit like a submissive underdog. It didn't make people want to cheer for him!

In the end, Steve emerged victorious. JJ shook his head in disbelief and stared at Steve, asking, "Man, you're really strong! What's your name again?"

Steve rolled his shoulders, clearly not feeling great either. He looked at JJ with the most sincere eyes and said, "Steve Rogers, man. You should know, Captain America!"

JJ looked at Steve like he was crazy and said, "Your dad didn't name you that so you could daydream, man. You need to wake up.

My girlfriend's a nurse at the hospital. Want me to get her to find you some meds?"

Steve just smiled noncommittally. No one believed he was Captain America, and that was fine!

Nick looked at JJ mockingly and said, "Man, I always thought you were the strongest guy in Hell's Kitchen. Looks like I was wrong!"

JJ chuckled, grabbed Nick's head, and ruffled his hair, laughing, "Kid, you're not even close to being able to mock me!"

Steve bumped fists with JJ and said, "Man, you're the strongest guy I've ever met. It's surprising. You must have something special!"

JJ laughed heartily and said, "Of course, I do have something special!" He winked at Steve as he spoke.

Steve laughed heartily, not minding JJ's lack of honesty. Everyone has their secrets!

Alvin saw Frank sneaking back in and teased, "Frank, why did you disappear during the match? Are you getting old?"

Frank angrily waved his fist and said, "Don't talk nonsense. I just wanted to go out for a smoke. Frank Castle fears no one!"

Nick and Ginny made thumbs-down gestures and booed their dad, looking down on him.

Frank resisted the urge to strangle his own son, picked up Ginny, and threatened to poke her with his stubble. That finally stopped the two little troublemakers!

...

During dinner, Professor Cage brought Domingo to the restaurant.

Old Cage dressed like a cowboy from the '60s or '70s, standing tall at over seventy years old, with two beautiful revolvers hanging from his barrel waist. As soon as he entered the restaurant, he stunned everyone.

It's not unusual for people in Hell's Kitchen to carry guns, but someone dressed like Old Cage and living to such an old age was unheard of!

Domingo was even more intimidating. Already scary-looking, he slicked back his medium-length hair with hair oil, making it cling to his scalp, fully exposing his serial killer-like face.

Dressed in a studded leather jacket and pants, paired with high-top boots, he looked like a super psycho killer that ordinary people wouldn't dare to look at directly!

As Domingo walked into the restaurant, he glanced around as if a Mexican killer was searching for his target. The temperature in the restaurant seemed to drop a few degrees with his entrance!

Shangqi, who had been acting as the waiter, tensed up like a coiled leopard, ready to strike this terrifying guy if he made a move to kill.

As Old Cage and Domingo found seats at the bar, the restaurant suddenly hit a rush hour for checkouts. All the customers who didn't know Domingo wanted to leave quickly to avoid getting caught in a potential bloodbath.

Alvin helplessly patted his head and nudged Shangqi, signaling him to help Jessica.

He shouted at Domingo, "Man, who gave you that look? Are they trying to shut down my restaurant?"

Shangqi, helping with the checkouts, looked at Alvin with admiration. He thought his boss was really brave. Most people would be too scared to speak if they saw Domingo! But the boss dared to lose his temper at him. Wasn't he afraid Domingo would eat him?

Domingo wanted to scratch his head but was stopped by Professor Cage to prevent him from ruining his carefully crafted look!

The old professor proudly said, "How about it, Alvin? Domingo is our security for this trip to New Mexico. Quite intimidating, right?"

Alvin was amused by the old guy and said with a cold smile, "Professor Cage, you're going to New Mexico, not fucking Tijuana, Mexico. If you let Domingo dress like this, the National Guard will come looking for trouble. Believe it or not!"

Professor Cage laughed heartily, twirling one of his revolvers in his hand, and said, "We're passing through Texas, my hometown. Trust me, Domingo will be fine. With him around, no one will dare to mess with us. It'll make our trip much easier."

Alvin looked at the fierce-looking Domingo. With a guy like him around, not only would people not dare to cause trouble, but even ghosts would probably steer clear!

Helplessly looking at the childlike Professor Cage, who was a pillar of the school, Alvin couldn't get mad at him. If he wanted to have fun, so be it!

Alvin thought for a moment, then found the old gun, "Jessica's Fist," from behind the bar and handed it to Domingo, saying, "Man, this is a hot-tempered girl. Be careful when you use it, and don't lose it!"

As Domingo stood up with the gun, Alvin looked him over. Perfect, very intimidating!

He looked like a classic outlaw from a wanted poster! Even a couple of cops would avoid him!

Ginny wasn't afraid of Domingo; she actually liked him because he had a really good temper. The little girl dragged out her dad's kukri used for slaying vampires and handed it to Domingo with some effort.

Domingo chuckled like a maniac, took the kukri from Ginny, and swung it a couple of times.

Seeing Domingo with a long gun in one hand and a big knife in the other, even Steve was a bit horrified and stepped aside!

JJ looked at Domingo enviously, wondering how someone could look like that.

With just his face, he could dominate a whole street in Hell's Kitchen!
