As the twentieth century progressed, Earth entered an age of rapid development.
But at the same time—
Conflict between humans and mutants grew increasingly severe.
To control mutants, the U.S.
government secretly cooperated with the Canadian government under the leadership of Major William Stryker, launching the Weapon X Program.
Its purpose:
Turn mutants into weapons that served the government.
Both Victor Creed (Sabretooth) and Logan (Wolverine) joined the program.
Logan eventually received an indestructible body and the unstoppable Adamantium claws.
After the experiment, Wolverine’s strength increased dramatically.
Rapid healing.
Unbreakable claws.
Combined with combat experience accumulated over countless battles—
He became an absolute killing machine:
Weapon X — Weapon Ten.
However—
The moment the experiment succeeded, Logan regained consciousness early.
To prevent his memories from being erased again—
He slaughtered his way out and escaped the island.
To deal with Wolverine’s escape, Stryker dispatched soldiers to hunt him down.
At the same time—
He continued searching for stronger mutants.
Thus—
Shortly before Alex and Wolverine arrived at the island—
Stryker succeeded in creating an even more terrifying weapon:
Weapon Eleven.
Its original body already possessed absurd swordsmanship.
With only two blades, it could deflect bullets fired from dozens of machine guns.
Its martial arts skills were equally monstrous.
After enhancement—
It gained Wolverine’s healing ability.
Cyclops’ optic laser powers.
And teleportation abilities similar to a ghost’s.
A near-perfect soldier.
Unfortunately—
Nobody was perfect.
As Stryker himself once said:
“If only he could shut that mouth…”
Because Weapon Eleven had one issue:
He was an absolute, natural-born trash talker.
The speed at which he offended people exceeded the speed at which he met them.
Eventually, during modification—
Stryker solved the problem.
By sewing his mouth shut.
Transforming him into a silent killing machine.
Thus—
Weapon Eleven became the monster now standing before Alex.
Of course—
Alex knew none of this.
He never paid much attention to American comics.
So right now—
He had no idea how terrifying his opponent really was.
Alex and Weapon Eleven stood facing each other.
Neither moved.
As supreme swordsmen—
Both waited for the other to reveal an opening.
Nearby—
The mutant boy continued using the Adamantium dagger to cut apart cages.
One by one—
Mutants emerged.
Soon over twenty people gathered nearby.
Watching silently.
Time passed.
Then—
Alex moved.
“Shinmei Style: Iaijutsu!”
He shouted and attacked first.
His sword techniques had been granted through Demon Eyes.
But in pure stamina and long-term sword foundations—
He couldn’t compare to Weapon Eleven.
Alex knew that.
So instead of entering a prolonged standoff—
Attack before the opponent reacted.
The Adamantium katana instantly transformed into a brilliant blur.
Sword light erupted.
Cold steel tore through the air.
SHHHHHHH!
The sound of slicing air echoed sharply.
Then the slash reached Weapon Eleven.
But—
Just before impact—
CLANG!!
A blade suddenly intercepted.
Weapon Eleven’s arm-blade had blocked the strike perfectly.
Smooth.
Effortless.
No hesitation.
“So strong…”
“They’re both monsters…”
The mutants stared in shock.
They’d never imagined swordsmanship could reach this level.
STEPSTEPSTEPSTEP!!
Even though Weapon Eleven blocked the attack—
He still staggered backward over ten steps.
Only then did he fully redirect the terrifying force.
The instant their blades met—
His palm had nearly split open.
But with overwhelming combat skill—
He redirected the impact throughout his body.
Despite retreating—
He remained completely unharmed.
Alex narrowed his eyes.
“He instantly used the optimal way to disperse force…”
“This guy’s dangerous.”
His caution rose again.
After years of enhancement—
Even Alex’s casual strikes carried hundreds of kilograms of force.
Yet Weapon Eleven had only stepped backward.
Nothing more.
No injury.
No weakness.
This guy absolutely couldn’t be underestimated.
Suddenly—
Weapon Eleven crossed both arms.
Then lunged.
The blades on his arms sliced through the air while attacking from left and right.
CLANG!
CLANG!
Alex swung twice.
Meeting force with force.
Since he possessed greater strength—
He intended to overwhelm his opponent directly.
Weapon Eleven strangely didn’t dodge.
Instead—
He met both strikes head-on.
The force entered his body—
And he was pushed backward again.
Alex’s eyes lit up.
“Got you!”
Taking advantage of the opening—
He advanced instantly.
The katana’s point aimed directly toward Weapon Eleven’s chest.
Then—
THRUST.
Simple.
Fast.
Brutal.
One of a katana’s most basic attacks.
But in Alex’s hands—
Its power multiplied dozens of times.
Even steel walls could be pierced.
The strike flashed forward like a meteor.
Weapon Eleven was still retreating.
PSSSH!
The blade pierced directly into his right chest.
Alex’s face lit up.
“Good—”
But then—
He saw Weapon Eleven’s eyes.
Calm.
Confident.
Something was wrong.
Instantly Alex tried pulling the blade back.
It didn’t move.
Looking carefully—
Weapon Eleven had trapped the katana between both arm blades.
Locked completely.
Then—
BANG!
A kick slammed into Alex’s chest.
He flew backward instantly.
Almost losing the katana.
The force was absurd.
Alex crashed over ten meters away.
His back became completely exposed.
Weapon Eleven immediately chased.
Arm blades flashed.
Rapid.
Merciless.
BOOM!!
Alex slammed into the ground.
His organs felt like they’d flipped upside down.
Blood surged through his body.
Then—
SHHHK!!
The sound of air splitting approached rapidly.
Weapon Eleven’s dual blades descended.
At the critical moment—
Alex reacted.
The Adamantium katana instantly moved upward.
CLANG!!
CLANG!!
Three blades collided violently.
The force pushed all of them apart.
Using the opportunity—
Alex slammed a hand against the floor.
Launching himself backward several meters.
He landed safely.
Then exhaled.
“Can’t relax for even a second…”
His eyes moved toward Weapon Eleven’s chest.
Then he froze.
The enormous wound from earlier—
Was gone.
Completely healed.
As if it had never existed.
Alex’s expression changed.
“No wonder he didn’t dodge…”
“He heals…”
“This guy has multiple mutant powers?!”
He adjusted his breathing.
Then tightened his grip on the katana.
With his left hand, he casually tossed the bundle of weapons toward a mutant boy.
“Hold these for me.”
The boy stared blankly.
“O-okay…”
Then—
Weapon Eleven attacked again.
The blades cut downward.
Even faster than before.
At least thirty percent faster.
The real battle—
Had only just begun.
