Thanos Sees Through Everything, Darkseid Is Supremely Confident
"Your strength is much weaker than I imagined."
Dark Order, within the Royal Palace of the Base.
Darkseid, who met Thanos through the Anti-Life Equation energy that had been stored in Mera, the sea queen, carefully examined the overlord Loki had mentioned.
The final conclusion was as follows.
This is by no means Darkseid's deliberate denigration, but rather an extremely fair assessment.
In Loki's description, Thanos, as a Thanos, possessed terrifying strength and commanded a vast army under the Black Order, making him one of the undisputed overlords of the universe.
But upon seeing it now, Darkseid was somewhat disappointed.
He had initially thought that Thanos, who could cultivate someone like Beckett, would be an exciting opponent, but judging from their first encounter, Thanos had clearly disappointed him.
As he said, Thanos's power was much weaker than he had imagined.
"Didn't your father tell you that underestimating your enemy will make you suffer?" A flash of surprise crossed Thanos's mind, but his expression remained calm.
"You are not qualified to mention my father."
As the most famously filial son in the DC Universe, Darkseid hates it when people mention that person in front of him.
"It seems you and your father had a past that you find difficult to talk about." Thanos smiled, his hands behind his back, a sight that was particularly jarring to Darkseid.
"However, I have no interest in your family affairs."
"Take your hands off this universe."
Thanos, who had dedicated his life to the cause of cosmic balance, gradually turned cold and issued an ultimatum to Darkseid.
"Of course, give me Beckett." Darkseid readily agreed, but set a condition that Thanos would never agree to.
"Just because Beckett killed one of your clones?" Thanos's impression of Darkseid was limited to the report Woz had previously submitted.
That's why, when he heard Darkseid's conditions, the first thing that came to his mind was the battle described in the report.
The battle that allowed Beckett to break through the limits of Super Saiyan 3, the battle against Darkseid's clone.
What do you think?
Darkseid neither confirmed nor denied it. He simply stood with his hands behind his back, striking the same pose as Thanos, staring intently at him.
The oppressive aura emanating from Thanos's power gradually permeated every corner of the royal palace. Thanos narrowed his eyes and summoned his Great Blade.
"I've said it before, hand Beckett over to me and your universe will be safe and sound."
"This is the second time I've said this to you now."
"I won't say the same thing a third time."
Darkseid, who didn't seem to care much about Thanos's actions, also gave his own response.
"I usually say this to others."
Thanos calmly swung his sword forward, the sharp blade aimed directly at Mera's head!
Buzz!
The violent energy instantly disrupted the calm above the Dark Order. Whether it was the Black Order who had their own matters to attend to or Beckett had just returned to the side hall to face Hela, everyone in the Dark Order turned their gazes toward the direction of the Royal Palace!
"Father?!"
Beckett frowned, no longer caring about the rule that one could not fly freely in the Dark Order, and his figure appeared in the center of the royal palace in an instant.
Mera, unconscious, lay in a pool of blood with her eyes closed. Thanos, standing below the steps, had several gashes on his cheeks, and the Great Blade in his hand was broken in two!
The Black Order and Hela, who had rushed to the scene, were speechless at the sight they had never witnessed before...
"What... what happened... Father?"
"It's nothing, she's not dead yet."
"It's nothing but a paper tiger with limited energy."
Thanos waved his hand, indicating to Beckett that he didn't need to worry about it.
Through an energy clash spanning two universes, he had already seen through the fact that Darkseid's current physical form could not break through the limitations of the universe to descend.
Meanwhile, in the DC Universe, on Apokolips.
Darkseid, seated on his throne, suddenly opened his eyes, a playful smile immediately appearing on his lips, "Interesting."
With just one strike, he found the crux of his problem.
That guy named Thanos lived up to Loki's description.
Although their strength is somewhat weak, their insight and decisiveness in taking action are unmatched by ordinary aliens.
In the past, he might have really been killed by Thanos.
Unfortunately, after The Flash, Barry Allen, rebooted the universe, it wasn't just Earth that benefited.
Darkseid's smile faded, and he rose from his throne, his figure gradually moving towards the secret prison on Apokolips.
Although he deeply resented Beckett's actions in forcing Barry Allen to reboot the universe, which destroyed years of hard work and preparation in an instant, he had to admit that Barry Allen's reboot also benefited him.
The most obvious point is that he has finally collected all the Anti-Life Equations that have been troubling him for so long. He even used the Anti-Life Equations to control the annoying Barry Allen and others on Earth, all to prevent Beckett from resorting to desperate measures and forcing the Flash, Barry Allen, to reload his save file again.
Darkseid felt it was better to keep the Speed Force, an ability that allowed him to reload and start over if he couldn't handle it, in his own hands.
That guy probably didn't notice.
After Darkseid left, Loki had escaped surveillance by using his skillful ability to create clones honed in Asgard, glanced in the direction Darkseid had gone and fell into deep thought.
For Loki, collaborating with Darkseid was like walking on a knife's edge.
Although this cooperation was only considered a one-sided one by Loki.
Darkseid's true form cannot descend easily, otherwise it could easily cause the collapse of the Multiverse.
This was something Loki confirmed after observing in the shadows for a long time.
This is why he dares to make unwanted physical advances in private these days.
Even with Darkseid on Apokolips now, Loki reckons he's just an avatar, not the real Darkseid.
They used someone else to do their dirty work, and then forced Darkseid to leave.
This is the purpose of Loki's "cooperation" with the Lord of Apokolips.
With a frown, Loki's figure slowly disappeared from the spot.
He needs to get ready.
Marvel Universe, Earth, New York.
This city of ice crystals, which has attracted much attention from people all over the world, welcomed an uninvited guest from the sky today.
"I'm still too late..."
Thor had escaped Sakaar before Sakaar explosion, looked at the ice sculptures that had not yet melted and sighed.
"Beckett ..."
Clenching his fists, Thor's habitual thinking led Thor to blame Beckett for his hasty departure from Sakaar for the New York incident.
"Thor?"
In his anger, Thor suddenly saw a gust of wind pass by.
Then, Tony Stark in his spirit form appeared before Thor: "Where were you?!"
Oh my god, blind dates are terrifying...
