Green Goblin: I am chaos and destruction incarnate! I am the Green Goblin! Since I'm stuck on Remnant, I might as well feel comfortable and make the best of it. I've tricked Cinder and Torchwick into handing me men to secretly add into my new Goblin Nation. Then I persuaded the not-dead Dr. Merlot, founder of Merlot Industries, into joining my cause for conquest. With his company's resources combined with my genius, and a little help of ISO-8, I am unstoppable! If only Spider-Man could see me now! Ahahahahaha!

Vol 1 Issue 15: A Tribe of Goblins
Goblin Island (formerly Merlot's Island)
BGM-The Incredible Hulk: Ultimate Destruction OST-Move Tutorial
It's a dark and stormy night at the brand new, evil headquarters of the Goblin Nation, Goblin Island. After taking over the island, Goblin had done a little redecorating of the island. There's a factory on the island that produce new weapons and armor for his army. Revamped radio towers that not only connect to the CCT, but to Goblin's own personal communications network for his army. Speaking of his army, his troops are killing new Mutant Grimm, mutated by the Goblin Formula, as a way to train themselves and test the goblinfied Grimm.
The Goblin King stands in the middle of an open field, grinning sinisterly while crossing his arms, "Summon the Cyber Goblins!" Suddenly, several of Merlot's security androids appear on the scene, but they have been repurposed with heavy blackish-green armor and reprogrammed to follow Goblin's commands.
The drones surround their master, materializing their energy blades and laser cannons out of thin air thanks to their advanced technology as they prepare to test their mettle against him. "Come. Show me what you can do." Osborn smirks wickedly. Some of the Goblin Droids strike him with their energy blades, but Goblin easily blocks their attack with one arm and deflects them to the ground. He quickly turns around to punch another android, but it projected a holographic shield to protect itself in time, impressing Osborn. He decided to blast the machine away with fire before getting assaulted by his robot's laser cannons. He rampages through their gunfire while enveloped in intense fire and tackles his robots into burning scrap, grabbing one along the way as he leaps high through the air, igniting the droid and throws it down at a crowd of robots like it's a flaming meteorite that explodes upon impact. Goblin chuckles, rocketing himself like a meteor from space and stomps on top of more androids while they were blasting him.
"I'm a bit impressed. Now where are those Hunter Killers I ordered?" He quipped.
Right on que, several small humanoid robots fly into the training ground above Goblin. These Hunter Killers are colored green with glowing red eyes and purple accents that resemble Classic Goblin's color scheme. They have two arms but no legs, floating in midair thanks to their advanced tech. Goblin grins while igniting his fists, testing his own reflexes by dodging their laser bullets and mini-rockets that are wrecking the training grounds. When he saw the opportunity, he consecutively throws fireballs at the Hunters, destroying each of them one by one while laughing manically.
Goblin cracks his neck, smashing his fists together a couple of times, "That was a heated exercise. A good warm-up to stretch my legs." He cackles at his own little joke as he walks into the main laboratory complex.

BGM-Spider-Man (Movie Game) OST-Oscorp Break-In
Inside the lab, Goblin's new lab assistant, Dr. Merlot, is working on the computer completing tasks given to him by his new boss. Though he was threatened to work for Osborn and help him achieve his goals for world domination, the scientist within him can't help but respect his genius and admire his creations like his Goblin Formula and its effect on people and creatures. Merlot works tirelessly on the computer, until he heard Goblin entering his lab, which mildly startled him.
"Oh, Norman! Didn't hear you were coming. How were the new androids?" Merlot asks his new boss.
Goblin calmly approaches him while transforming back to plain 'ol Norman Osborn and standing next to his partner, "As prototypes go, they performed quite well. Their A.I.s still need a few tweaks, but the new ISO-8 synthesized from my Goblin Formula is increasing their fighting capabilities beyond those androids used in the Atlesian Military."
"Indeed. You were quite right about the ISO-8. Their potential surpasses the Grimm I've been studying for years. They attach themselves to the essential characteristic of a material it touches and intensifies it. It's the perfect catalyst for any experiment. It could change the world." Merlot stated.
"What is the status of our 'secret projects'?" Norman switches to a vague topic to discuss.
"Smoothly, but it'll still be a long while until they are complete." Merlot answered.
"Fine. We are in no rush. No one knows of the Goblin Nation's existence, and I want to keep it that way until the time is right." Norman replied. "In the meantime, I will continue amassing my forces. Recruiting new followers from each kingdom's criminal underbelly. 52% of Vale's criminal underground secretly work for me. Keeping me updated on current events." He states with his arms folded behind his back.
"Which kingdom will you target next?" Merlot asked.
"Let's try Mistral." Osborn said, as the computer projects a holo-screen of the kingdom of Mistral before him to study.
"Are you planning to recruit the White Fang's leader to your side?" Merlot asks, recalling the High Leader of the White Fang lives at Mistral.
"I'll go after Sienna Kahn later. I already have enough White Fang fools in my ranks and I want to be diverse." Norman interacts with the holo-screen, searching for information regarding any criminal organization in Mistral that's not the White Fang. After a moment, he seemed to have found something regarding a group of thieves in the continent, "Hmm. Anima seem to have a nasty bandit problem. The most dangerous are from the Branwen Tribe, led by a mysterious woman called Raven. From what I can tell, they aren't associated with anyone else. They survive by raiding villages and stealing their resources. But I'm sure with a little convincing, I can offer them a better reward." He said ominously, as it sounds like his next mission will take him to Mistral.
BGM End
Later in the morning, at the continent of Anima…
Somewhere in the Anima wilderness there is a fuel station called Just Rite. Not abandoned, but very quiet and lonely as it's far away from any Kingdom. Norman Osborn is wearing a casual business suit and carrying a suitcase, presumably filled with cash, during his investigation on the Branwen Tribe and comes across the fuel station that should give him answers. He enters the station where he sees only two people, a bartender and a shady drunk man sitting next to the counter. These gentlemen give a strange look at Osborn, as they wonder what a rich-looking man is doing in the middle of nowhere. Osborn ignores their strange looks and takes a seat in front of the counter, putting his case on it while he speaks with the bartender.
"Anything I can get you, sir?" The bartender asks the business man.
"Water. It's hot." Norman calmly replied.
"Sure." The bartender disappears below the counter to grab a bottle of water, then stands back up straight handing it to his customer, "Here you go." Osborn hands the bartender some money to pay for his drink before guzzling down the water until it was gone. "So, what brings a business man like you around these parts?" The bartender asks the hidden criminal.
"I'm looking for someone." Norman answered.
The bartender chuckles, "Not too many people come out here. Too far from the Kingdoms. Only person worth notin' around here is... well, Ra—."
"Raven Branwen." Osborn cuts him off as he heads out with his suitcase, "I have a meeting with her."
"N-now, sir! You don't want to go messin' with bandits! They're a world of trouble!" The bartender warns him.
"And I'm grateful." Norman responded calmly, passing by the shady man who has been staring at him this whole time.
Outside, Norman prepares to leave to find more clues on Raven's current whereabouts, but was called out by the shady man as he exits the station, "Hey, business dude." Norman turns around facing the grinning Shady Man, "I heard you're…looking for someone."
Later…
"How much further?" Norman asks the Shady Man, as they both walk through a forest presumably searching for the Branwen Tribe.
"This should just about do it." Shay D. Mann claims as they stop at a clearing. He turns to Osborn, "You wait here. I'll go up ahead and make sure the coast is clear."
BGM-Ultimate Spider-Man (Game) OST-Venom Feeding Time
The Shady Man runs into the bushes, but it's completely obvious to Norman that he was led to a trap. He doesn't care, judging from his scoff while holding his suitcase as he crosses his arms. Suddenly, someone pulls the trigger of a gun and Osborn calmly blocks the shot with his suitcase. He sees the Shady Man has reappeared, this time accompanied with several bandits in tow.
"I can't believe you were dumb enough to let me lead you here." Shady Man mockingly grins at Osborn, as the bandits present have their weapons drawn at the outworlder.
"Is this everyone?" Osborn stoically asks, feeling completely unfazed and unthreatened.
Shady Man chuckles, "Yes, rich man. This is it. Well, unless you count the whole rest of the camp back that way." He gestures behind him with his thumb.
"That way?" Osborn points a finger in the same direction.
The lead bandit grunts in confusion, looking at his tribe mates first before answering, "Yes. That way."
"Good to know. I thank you for your usefulness." Osborn says mockingly.
"You can thank me by handing us whatever's in your case. Looks pretty expensive. Meaning whatever's inside must be expensive too." Shady Man gestures to a fellow bandit to rudely snag Osborn's suitcase from his hands. Osborn watches the person slowly open the case for anything worth valuable, but to their utter confusion, it was a suitcase full of pumpkin-looking objects.
"A pumpkin?" The confused bandit remarks.
Suddenly, the eyes of the pumpkin item glows green and explodes in that bandit's face, killing them. The other bombs were scattered from the explosion, which activated them and blew up the area that gravely injured the other bandits. Only the Shady Man seemed to have taken the least damage and goes on a coughing fit. While coughing, he stares at Osborn calmly walking out of the smoke from his own explosion as his menacing eyes flare flames while his grinning teeth grow fangs. "Where is your camp again?" Osborn asks while looming over the terrified bandit with his transforming figure.

Branwen Tribe Camp
BGM-Spider-Man 3 (Game) OST-The Lizard #1
The bandits live in a simple, but lived-in cobbled-together camp protected by a wooden log wall with a single gate. All the thieves were minding their own business either playing cards or going on a smoke break. Everything was fine at camp, until a strange mad cackle filled the air interrupting their peace of mind.
"AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!" Suddenly, a bruised Shady Man was smashed through the gate, lying down next to his fellow bandits still alive, but looks like he had barely escaped the pits of hell. Everyone glares at the madman who had a blast smashing the gate and sees the imposing Green Goblin entering the camp. "Good news, lowlives! The kingdom's gone GREEN! Say hello to your nightmare!" He cackled.
The entire tribe points their various weapons at the mutated supervillain, but he remains unfazed and still having a blast laughing at their faces. "Gentlemen, please. Put down the toys. Let us be civil and have a chat, unless you want to go to WAR with the Grimm. I should warn you. I'm MUCH scarier." He grins menacingly while threatening the thugs with his ignited fist. Reluctantly, the bandits put down their weapons as they know they wouldn't stand a chance against this lunatic and a swarm of Grimm at the same time.
Approaching Goblin looks to be a particular bandit, a young woman wearing a brown vest and has a tattoo of a bird on her left arm. She fearlessly confronts the madman with a mean glare and asks him, "Who are you, and what do you want?"
"I don't introduce myself to underlings. Where is your leader? I've come to speak business." Goblin replies with a maniacal, joking demeanor that the bandits have never encountered before until today.
"Follow me." The young woman escorts their new guest through the camp, while the rest of the bandits give him cautious glares, much to his amusement. The two arrive at the camp's main tent and wait for the leader of the tribe to emerge. Slowly emerging from the camp is a mysterious female swordsman in a shallow cut black and red dress with black shorts underneath, wearing a fearsome, full-face mask that resembles the face of a Grimm.
The mysterious tribe leader glares at Goblin, who chuckles ominously at her while showing his teeth. She then looks at her young subordinate, "Quite a catch, Vernal. I didn't know Grimm came in this color. Did you fish him out from a swamp, because he certainly smells rotten?"
Despite the trash talk, Goblin mockingly bows to her, "A pleasure to be of an acquaintance. If my sources are correct, you are Raven Branwen, the deadliest woman in all of Anima. I am the Green Goblin. I have come to speak with you."
Raven turns to her followers, "Leave us. Pack your things, then break down camp. We're moving."
"Oh, there's no reason to do that." A smirking Goblin snaps his fingers as the entire camp is surrounded by a circle of fire, trapping the entire tribe with the frightening supervillain. "I want all of you to hear what I have to address, if you value your miserable lives." He chuckles madly.
Raven remains unfazed by his actions and continues glaring at him, as she seems to have a good idea why he has come to threaten her tribe. "I didn't think Salem would come after me so soon." She said, which made Goblin curious.
"What? How do you know that name?" He asked.
"You work for her, don't you?" Raven remarked.
"Work for her?" Goblin goes into a mad laughing fit, which now made Raven curious and her tribe a little uneasy by his laughing. "You think I'm one of her pawns? I didn't know you were a joker." He chuckled.
"Answer the question." She said with a calm, threatening voice.
"No. I don't WORK for that old hag. It's quite the opposite. I'm USING her for my own purposes." Goblin answered.
"Hilarious." Raven remarks stoically, as she doesn't believe him at all.
"It's true. She doesn't know I exist. Her own ignorance will lead to her downfall." Goblin said ominously.
Raven scoffs as she still doesn't believe a word of his, "Impossible. There's nothing on this world that can stop her."
"And you're right. Nothing on 'this' world. I come from a world 'beyond' Remnant." He vaguely tells her that he's from a different dimension.
"And now you expect me to believe you're an alien?" Raven mocks him.
"Believe what you want to believe. But believe me, I've come here to make a generous proposition and offer you a gift of untold power." From the pocket of his ripped pants, Osborn takes out a red ISO-8 crystal while the bandits eye him carefully. "Catch." He shouts as he tosses the crystal to Raven, who effortlessly catches it with one hand to observe the mysterious crystal.
"Isn't that Dust?" Vernal remarks while staring at the cosmic crystal.
"Oh no, my dear. That crystal is on an entirely different 'realm' of power. Try it for yourself." Goblin goads Raven to test out the crystal.
Hesitant but curious, Raven stares at the crystal as she wonders what it could do. Almost as if it was reading her thoughts, the ISO-8 slowly imbues her with its marvelous energy, enhancing her physiology while also enhancing the strength of her red Aura. The tribal leader is stunned, unsure where this power suddenly came from or how to properly test it. Her hand reaches to her sword, unsheathing it as the ISO-8 imbues her sword with energy too. She points her sword to the sky, and with a simple thought, unleash a powerful beam of pure energy that pierces the heavens and scares the local birds minding their own business.
Her tribe members. Vernal. Even herself was incredible stunned by that immense power she just unleashed without even trying. "All that power…from this one crystal…?" She stares in awe at the energy crystal. A crystal that has granted her power few has achieved in life. She wants to make more use of the crystal, but a sudden fireball shattered it while she was marveling at its brilliance, causing her to glare fiercely at the grinning Goblin for answers.
"That was a sample. Did you enjoy its taste?" He jokingly asked.
"What was that crystal?" Raven questions him.
"Where I'm from, we call it Neutronium. Specifically, a cubic form of it aligned in eight-atom clusters we dubbed 'ISO-8'. Think of it as space magic." He answered.
"Magic…from outer space?" Raven questions his ridiculousness again.
"I know it sounds ridiculous, and I'm aware magic 'supposedly' doesn't exist in this world. I may not look like it, but I'm a scientist wanting to unlock the secrets of ISO-8. I am close into mastering their power. Look at what it turned me into." Goblin said.
"An abomination?" She quipped.
"That name's already taken." Goblin joked. "What you just experienced was a 'taste' of the cosmos itself. One crystal can boost your powers exponentially in ways DOZENS of Dust could never accomplish. ISO-8 can forge your wildest dreams into reality. Imagine, with enough crystals, you can rule your own kingdom with an iron fist. Decimate armies single-handedly. Even the seemingly 'invincible' Salem will be powerless to a god." He said with irresistible charisma, trying to manipulate Raven to join his forces.
"So let me get this straight. You want me and my tribe to join you in your little crusade against Salem?" Raven asked him.
"This is the opportunity of a lifetime. I've already convinced the criminal imbeciles at Vale to join my little nation." He replied.
"Then they must be imbeciles to join you. I have no interest getting involved with Salem. Even if you do have the power to destroy her, I fight for my own survival. I'm not helping you or anyone else! I don't want a part in any of this!" Raven argued, absolutely showing no interest in joining Goblin's side.
What she didn't expect was for Goblin to cackle madly right at her claims, which honestly frightened her a little, "Mwahahahaha! So your means of survival is running away like a coward when the going gets rough! Your mask can't hide your fear." He taunts, which slowly pisses her off. "It is too late. You and this entire planet has already become a part of something bigger. Destiny cannot be altered. But I can offer you protection." He said, hearing a lowly gasp from the tribal leader as he continues, "I'm not asking you to help me fight Salem. I am MORE than glad to obliterate her myself. She's just a nuisance. A weak and minor obstacle in the new age I am trying to forge for the strong and powerful. I've deemed your tribe worthy of strength. They could be the most powerful in the world without anyone to stop them. And I can tell. You ENJOYED that power sample I gave you. For a mere moment, you didn't feel like a coward. Power is the only way to overcome fear. Without it, you are nothing. I am your only hope of survival. Join the Goblin Nation and I promise to reserve you your rightful position in the new world. Are you strong enough to accept my offer?"
Goblin is truly a master of manipulation. Knowing the perfect words to convince anyone that he is right. His words seem to have struck themselves into her heart. Her mask hides it, but Goblin can tell, she is visibly debating with herself about her next action. Vernal looks at her boss with concern, wondering about her next decision.
"If I join you, you'll protect my people from Salem?" Raven finally says something after a moment of heavy thinking within her own mind.
"You know Salem, so I assume she knows about you for a mysterious reason. But she doesn't know the Goblin Nation exist, or its spreading influence." Goblin smirked.
"Then I supposed you have yourself a deal." Raven responds, accepting his offer for the Branwen Tribe to join the Goblin Nation.
"Excellent! And here I was thinking about murdering each of you if you didn't comply since you knew too much, but I'm so glad we avoided that nasty alternative. It would've been a madhouse!" Goblin lets out a maniacal cackle that can be heard for miles, making Raven wonder if she's gonna regret her decision.

KFX Here: So different from the original, Goblin recruits the Branwen Tribe to the Goblin Nation. Now he has forces in Vale and Mistral, and his army will continue to grow in the shadows with the rest of the world completely unaware. Now we return to Spider-Man's side of the story as he encounters a new mysterious villain.
Blood Spider: Well it's not. I plainly said the X-Aura was directly inspired by the X-Factor from Marvel vs. Capcom 3 with little ideas of my own. There's no "X" on his chest and his Semblance won't be revealed for a while, but it's nothing anime like whatever you're talking about.
Guest (chapter 15): What are you talking about? You act like I haven't uploaded anything in weeks.
Billy: Same thing to you. Why are you acting like I've been ignoring this story forever when the recent upload was a few days ago? I'm not promising you anything. Besides, I have a life outside of fanfiction. This is a hobby. I'm not obliged to do anything for you.
Jufesocar: I have no interest in My Hero Academia.
Next time: The silent, armored mercenary!
