java求几个hashmap中key的并集,输出value

现有几个hashmap,可能有相同的key,但是value不同,求key的并集,
并输出在不同hashmap中的不同value,若不存在则为-1

比如hashmap1{(我,1),(你,2),(他,3),(它,4)}
hashmap2{(猴,1)(狗,3)(你,4)(他,5)}
hashmap3{(猴,10)(牛,2)(狗,5)(猪,4),(它,8)}
hashmap4{(我,5),(牛,6)}
输出为
key hashmap1 hashmap2 hashmap3 hashmap4
我 1 -1 -1 5
你 2 4 -1 -1
他 3 5 -1 -1
它 4 -1 8 -1
猴 -1 1 10 -1
狗 -1 3 5 -1
牛 -1 -1 2 6
猪 -1 -1 4 -1

思路是挨个挨个Map遍历,将结果放入一个汇总的map,希望有更漂亮的方案

key:key2 value:[value2, value2, value2]
key:key1 value:[value1, value1, value1]
key:key7 value:[-1, -1, value7]

用谷歌 Guava 中的Multimap 。
