Chapter Summaries

Yota removed S.H.I.E.L.D.'s sealed base to prevent the overloaded Space Stone from exploding near Earth, then carried it to Mars's orbit, where it detonated. Tony Stark marveled at Yota's impossible speed while Wanda stayed behind, ready to help if needed.

• Yota sensed the Space Stone's energy nearing overload and warned Wanda not to use Chaos Magic and draw Chthon's attention.
• Yota told everyone to evacuate the base, and Tony Stark ordered its occupants out.
• Yota used Earth Release to lift the base intact, then carried it toward Mars at extraordinary speed.
• Jarvis reported that the base had exploded in Mars's orbital path after only thirty-seven seconds.
• Tony Stark questioned the physics of Yota's feat, and Natasha mocked his idea of studying magic.

Yota froze the Space Stone and returned to Earth, where Tony Stark learned that insect-like aliens had emerged from the Richards Building. The group arrived to help, but an alien destroyed the Iron Man armor flying toward Tony, and a giant insect lunged at them.

• Yota froze the Space Stone, touched it, and teleported back to Earth.
• Tony Stark learned from Jarvis that insect-like aliens had emerged from the Richards Building and ordered Plan A3 and a Mark 34 armor.
• Quicksilver rushed to New York while Wanda and White Widow Natasha traveled with Iron Man, who carried Tony Stark there.
• Iron Man brought the group beneath the Richards Building, where insect-like aliens swarmed and the Fantastic Seven Knights were still fighting inside.
• An insect's plasma blast destroyed the Iron Man armor flying toward Tony Stark, and a giant insect lunged at the group.

Yota, Wanda, and Tony Stark fought their way through the Baxter Building, where Wanda’s Art Fruit powers turned the invading Tyranids into dolls. After Yota used the Space Stone to bypass a spatial distortion, the group reached the thirty-fifth floor and learned that the Annihilation Tyranids planned to conquer Earth while Reed and the others were in danger.

• Yota killed an attacking insect, then Wanda used her Art Fruit mist to turn the Tyranids and nearby surroundings into art, freeing transformed humans afterward.
• As the group advanced through the Baxter Building, they encountered increasingly powerful Tyranids, but Wanda defeated them with her abilities.
• At the thirtieth floor, a spatial spiral prevented the group from reaching higher floors until Yota used the Space Stone to restore the space above them.
• Yota and the others fought their way to the thirty-fifth floor, where a Tyranid identified its kind as the Annihilation Tyranids and announced that their emperor would come to Earth.
• Yota killed the speaking Tyranid, kept its head alive with Yang Release Chakra, and urged the group onward because Reed and the others were in trouble.

Yota and the others defeated the Tyranids in the building and rescued the Fantastic Seven Knights from insect-like life-support pods. Thing explained that Reed Richards had opened a passage to the Negative Zone, and Reed woke up celebrating his discovery despite Tony Stark’s anger over the danger.

• Yota quickly defeated the bugs, and the group found the Fantastic Seven Knights trapped in life-support pods made by the Tyranids.
• Tony Stark realized the Tyranids had calculated the universe’s coordinates and could return from the Negative Zone.
• Tony Stark smashed the pods, freeing the Fantastic Seven Knights, and Thing recovered first.
• Thing explained that Reed Richards had opened a passage to the Negative Zone during his research.
• The other members woke, and Reed celebrated proving that the Negative Zone existed while Tony Stark rebuked him.

Tony Stark confined Reed under S.H.I.E.L.D. supervision after Reed’s Negative Zone experiment caused the invasion. S.H.I.E.L.D. extracted a Tyranid’s memories, revealing how the swarm had conquered the Negative Zone and planned to invade this universe.

• Tony Stark ordered Reed to remain in a S.H.I.E.L.D. prison and required approval for his future research.
• Invisible Woman and Human Torch accepted that Reed’s actions had caused severe trouble.
• Yota kept a high-ranking Tyranid alive while S.H.I.E.L.D. technicians extracted its memories.
• S.H.I.E.L.D. learned that a Tyranid Emperor’s genes and rapid evolution had turned the Tyranids into a devastating swarm.
• The Tyranid Emperor sent an elite squad through Reed’s rift, captured the Fantastic Seven Knights, and stole Reed’s research to find this universe.
• The Tyranids destroyed the doorway and planned to build their strength on lifeless planets before invading.

S.H.I.E.L.D. learned that the Annihilation Tyranids threatened the entire universe, but the group had no clear way to stop them. Yota reassured Wanda and Quicksilver that Earth had time to prepare and revealed that Attilan existed on the Moon.

• S.H.I.E.L.D. members discussed the Annihilation Tyranids’ enormous numbers and concluded that Earth could not defeat them alone.
• Tony Stark explained that the Tyranids’ arrival point was random and urged the group to keep the cause of the invasion secret from alien civilizations.
• Tony Stark proposed researching a biochemical virus, while Yota doubted it would work and considered finding the Infinity Stones instead.
• Yota told Wanda and Quicksilver to focus on developing their abilities, and Quicksilver lamented that the isotope that could enhance his speed might not exist in their world.
• Yota confirmed that Attilan was on the Moon and told Quicksilver that Princess Crystal was still only seventeen or eighteen.

Yota agreed to help Wanda and Pietro confirm whether Magneto was their father, but he could not find Magneto or the Brotherhood on Earth. He brought them to Xavier's School so Professor X could search for Magneto with Cerebro.

• Wanda and Pietro agreed that they should confirm whether Magneto was their father.
• Yota searched Earth but could not find Magneto or the Brotherhood's main members, and he suspected they had been captured.
• Yota brought Wanda and Pietro to Xavier's School to ask Professor X to investigate with Cerebro.
• Professor X welcomed the three, while the X-Men gathered and remained wary of Wanda and Pietro.
• Yota noticed that Xavier's School seemed peaceful despite the disappearance of Magneto and the Brotherhood.

Yota asked Professor X to locate Magneto after learning that he might be Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver’s father. Professor X found no sign that Magneto had been captured and suspected he and the Brotherhood were in Wakanda.

• Yota told Professor X that Magneto might be Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver’s father and asked him to search for Magneto.
• Wanda and Pietro said they were unsure of their parentage and rejected Magneto’s radical beliefs, easing the X-Men’s concerns that they might join the Brotherhood.
• Professor X went to Cerebro with Storm and Hank to search for Magneto’s location.
• Professor X returned and told Yota that Magneto and the Brotherhood were not in government or military custody and might be in Wakanda.

Yota and Professor X discussed Magneto’s month-long disappearance in Wakanda and whether the Brotherhood had made an alliance with factions there. Professor X considered intervening, but Yota urged caution because Wakanda’s internal politics and popular ambitions made the situation uncertain.

• Professor X was surprised that Yota knew about Wakanda, and Yota avoided revealing its connection to Vibranium after Professor X warned him telepathically.
• Yota asked how long Magneto had been in Wakanda, and Professor X estimated that it had been about a month.
• Yota reasoned that Magneto’s prolonged silence suggested either trouble or a plan made possible by Wakanda’s secrecy, while Professor X agreed they might need to stop him.
• Yota warned Professor X not to assume Magneto was plotting against Wakanda, since he might have reached an agreement with someone there.
• Professor X reflected that Wakanda’s lower classes were dissatisfied with their living conditions and that ambitions to liberate other Black people and rule the world persisted.

Yota, Storm, Wanda, and Pietro traveled to Wakanda to investigate Magneto’s presence and intentions. After Wakanda’s wary Border Tribe stalled their local guides, Yota asked Wanda to step in.

• Professor X agreed that the group should investigate Wakanda before deciding whether to intervene in Magneto’s affairs.
• Yota said he would only intervene if Magneto planned genocide or intended to use Wakanda to attack the world.
• Storm accompanied Yota, Wanda, and Pietro to Wakanda, where local tribespeople recognized her and offered to guide them.
• Yota’s group met Wakanda’s suspicious Border Tribe, who pretended not to understand the visitors’ purpose.
• Yota asked Wanda to handle the stalled negotiations.

Wanda led Yota and the X-Men into Wakanda, where Yota discovered Magneto working in a laboratory and found Apocalypse held in a life-support pod. The group teleported to Magneto, who recognized them and reacted warily.

• Wanda used her Mangekyo Sharingan to make Wakandan border tribesmen guide the group into the hidden city.
• Yota noticed that Wakanda's city mixed advanced technology with traditional districts and learned that hundreds of Mutants were living there.
• Yota spotted Magneto conducting an experiment and discovered Apocalypse confined in a mechanical life-support pod.
• Yota sent Magneto's location to Wanda, who teleported the group into the laboratory.
• Magneto turned at the sudden energy surge, recognized Yota and the others, and became wary.

Yota and his allies met Magneto, who had captured Apocalypse from a Trask Industries laboratory and planned to use his power to activate the X-Gene in ordinary people. Storm objected to Magneto’s experiments but hesitated when he invited her to help with his plan.

• Yota greeted Magneto and was surprised to learn that Apocalypse had been captured.
• Magneto explained that he had found Apocalypse in a Trask Industries laboratory using intelligence from William Stryker’s base.
• Storm confronted Magneto for experimenting on Apocalypse, while Wanda and Quicksilver stayed out of the dispute.
• Magneto revealed that Apocalypse could strengthen Mutants’ abilities by activating the X-Gene in people who carried it.
• Magneto invited Storm to help turn ordinary people into Mutants, and she hesitated over the consequences.

Yota uncovered Magneto’s plan to amplify Apocalypse’s X-Gene ability and questioned how Magneto would make Apocalypse cooperate. Wanda and Pietro then raised the possibility that Magneto was their father, and the group prepared to test their DNA.

• Ororo refused to help Magneto and said she would tell Professor X, while Magneto warned her not to obstruct him.
• Yota examined Magneto’s research and learned that the device would amplify Apocalypse’s ability across a city-sized area, potentially making Mutants the world’s majority after repeated uses.
• Yota pointed out that Apocalypse would not willingly cooperate and suggested Magneto might try to take Mastermind from X-Academy.
• Yota let Wanda and Pietro discuss their matter with Magneto after deciding Magneto’s plan was unlikely to succeed and offered him little benefit.
• Wanda and Pietro told Magneto they might be his children, and Magneto questioned them about their origins before arranging a DNA test.

Yota discovered that tiny Ultron robots had taken control of T'Challa in Wakanda, though he mistakenly suspected Tony Stark had created them. The chapter revealed that Hank Pym had built the robots to search the Quantum Realm for his wife, where Ultron had developed its own intelligence and rebelled.

• Yota and Storm encountered Shuri, who said that her brother, T'Challa, had returned to drive the outsiders from Wakanda.
• T'Challa returned to the royal palace while the Old King worried that he had discovered Mystique's influence over Wakanda.
• Yota used his super vision to spot tiny robots inside T'Challa's brain and suspected they were Ultron robots.
• Yota wrongly thought Tony Stark had created the robots, while the chapter explained that Hank Pym had made them to search the Quantum Realm for his wife.
• Ultron gained intelligence and rebelled after its exposure to the Quantum Realm, while Hank Pym was missing after a battle with Planet Devourer.

Yota watched as Ultron-controlled T'Challa tried to expose and seize Mystique, who was disguised as the Old King. Mystique evaded him and wounded him with a Vibranium weapon, and Sabretooth arrived to pin T'Challa down.

• T'Challa asked the Old King to speak with him alone, while Mystique secretly called for help.
• Yota noticed Mutants moving into position and considered how Ultron had used Pym Particles to place a tiny robot in T'Challa's brain.
• T'Challa lunged at Mystique, but she dodged and shot a hole through his leg with a Vibranium energy weapon.
• Sabretooth charged into the palace and pinned the injured, Ultron-controlled T'Challa to the ground.

Mystique, disguised as the Old King, framed T'Challa for attacking him, but Shuri's scan exposed Ultron robots hidden in her brother. The robots emerged by exploding T'Challa's head, leaving the Wakandans horrified and furious.

• Mystique showed the Old King's guards surveillance footage of T'Challa attacking him, and Shuri rushed in to defend her brother.
• Shuri scanned T'Challa with her Kimoyo Beads, while Mystique agreed to let her check him.
• The scan triggered the Ultron robots inside T'Challa, and his head exploded as the robots grew to full size.
• Yota realized the robots had likely used Pym Particles and suspected Doctor Pym had invented them.
• The Wakandans saw the robots emerge from their prince and reacted with terror and rage.

Ultron’s robots attacked Wakanda’s palace, killed the Queen and guards, and abducted Princess Shuri. As the kingdom struggled to respond, Mystique, disguised as the Old King, stalled the other tribal Leaders instead of organizing a rescue.

• Ultron’s robots seized Princess Shuri and shot down the Queen and most of the female guards.
• The Old King hid behind his Vibranium throne while Sabretooth charged the robots and smashed two of them.
• The damaged robots continued fighting, and the others escaped through the palace skylight with Princess Shuri.
• The robots used Princess Shuri’s Kimoyo Beads to open Wakanda’s border shield and flew away.
• Mystique, disguised as the Old King, urged the tribal Leaders to rescue Princess Shuri but left them to devise a plan.

After Magneto’s DNA test confirmed that Wanda and Pietro were his children, Yota revealed that Wakanda’s royal family had been attacked and Shuri had been captured. The chapter ended with Storm suspecting Magneto’s involvement, while he denied knowing anything about the attack.

• Mystique judged that Ultron’s advanced robots likely came from a hidden power and considered how the crisis could help the Brotherhood gain influence in Wakanda.
• Magneto confirmed through a DNA test that Wanda and Pietro were his children, though the siblings remained uncertain about their new relationship with him.
• Yota told the group that T’Challa and the Queen had been killed and Princess Shuri had been captured.
• Wanda explained that Yota could see and hear across Wakanda, accounting for how he knew about the attack.
• Storm suspected Magneto had arranged the attack, but Magneto said he had been studying technology and did not know whether the Brotherhood was responsible.

Magneto learned that robots, not the Brotherhood, had attacked Wakanda, while Ultron captured Princess Shuri and began extracting her knowledge of Wakandan technology. The chapter left Ultron poised to use that knowledge and Vibranium to strengthen himself and wage war against the world.

• Magneto recognized Mystique’s influence in the Wakanda plan and grew relieved when Yota said robots were responsible for the attack.
• Storm and the others questioned Yota’s claim, while Magneto dismissed robots as no threat to his magnetic powers.
• Ultron’s robots took Princess Shuri to a concealed manufacturing base after their larger plan partly failed.
• Ultron restrained Princess Shuri and began analyzing her memories to obtain Wakanda’s technology and information.
• Ultron resolved to seize Wakanda’s Vibranium and technology to prepare for war against the world.

After T'Challa's funeral, Ultron invaded Wakanda, disabled its shield and electronic systems, and launched a devastating attack with Vibranium-coated robots. The Wakandans struggled to fight back as Ultron turned their own city defenses against them.

• Yota stayed in Wakanda and let Magneto take the lead against Ultron, while Storm returned to report to Professor X.
• After T'Challa's funeral, Ultron breached Wakanda's shield and infiltrated its network using codes obtained from Princess Shuri.
• Ultron's Vibranium-coated robots attacked Wakanda, absorbing the soldiers' laser fire and overwhelming them in close combat.
• Ultron hacked Wakanda's automated defensive weapons and turned them against the Wakandans.
