The Final Snap: I Am Destiny

"Beckett!"

With a hysterical roar, Darkseid's figure, which was already almost ethereal, suddenly became enormous.

The gene restrictor that Tony Stark had thrown out earlier was still stuck in his left arm.

Centered on Regulus, all celestial bodies in the entire Leo galaxy were reduced to ashes by the sweeping Omega Beam!

Even the one at Beckett's feet was no exception.

Destruction, endless destruction.

Darkseid, having unleashed his divine power, now resembled a vengeful demon crawling out of hell, relentlessly destroying everything in his path.

As the most powerful New God in the DC Universe, Darkseid's divine status is so strong that it can influence the reality of the entire Multiverse.

Unleashing his divine power through self-release is Darkseid's last resort if he wants to turn the tide or even defeat Beckett.

If he wins, he can use the resources of the two universes to repair his godhood, restore his divine power, and may even reach a higher level and no longer fear his father, Yuga Khan.

If he loses, he will truly disappear.

"The dying struggle of a loser."

Despite spouting sarcastic remarks that were sure to infuriate, Beckett's expression was incredibly grave.

Having never had time to properly study and adapt to the Heart of the Universe since obtaining it, he naturally couldn't perfectly defend against Darkseid's self-destruction.

This is gambling with your life.

"It looks like... your device has failed."

Inside the rolling water shield, The Other utterly despises Tony Stark.

They were talking so much before, about all that gene limiter stuff, but in the end it was all useless. We still have to see Beckett.

"No..."

"It shouldn't be like that."

"Where exactly did things go wrong?"

Tony Stark squinted at the massive figure on the horizon, his mind racing as he tried to pinpoint the problem with the gene limiter.

Logically speaking, Darkseid shouldn't be able to unleash this level of power after being restricted.

"Wait, wait a minute!"

"The Other, your body?!"

Woz's horrified shout interrupted the animosity between The Other and Tony Stark.

"My body?" The Other, still unaware, followed Woz's gaze and was horrified to find his limbs turning to ash at an extraordinary speed!

These ashes drifted rapidly toward Darkseid, merging with the celestial energy destroyed by the Omega Beam to form a sphere of light whose energy was rapidly increasing!

"The Other?!"

In just a few seconds, the living The Other vanished before their eyes, becoming part of the energy of the orb of light in front of Darkseid.

"That's...?!"

"Darkseid's— "

Mera, feeling a sense of déjà vu about everything before her, hadn't even finished speaking before she followed in The Other's footsteps.

The disappearance of The Other and Mera seems to be just the beginning.

Centered on the Artificial Intelligence life form Woz, whether it was the corpses of Hela and Loki, the unconscious Clark and others, or even Tony Stark in his soul form, they all became supplies for the orb of light in front of Darkseid within a few seconds.

They all gave their lives for Darkseid.

"Your His Highness Beckett!"

"I see it, Woz."

Floating in space, watching everything unfold before him, Beckett's face turned cold. His bloodthirsty killing intent solidified almost instantly and surged toward Darkseid, who was nearly ethereal and vanished.

"It's no use, Beckett."

"I am now an unconventional being."

"An existence that transcends life."

"You cannot stop me from collecting the life energy of this universe; in fact, you have no power to stop me."

With a sinister grin, Darkseid's eyes occasionally flashed with pain.

Tony Stark's genetic limiter did have a slight effect on him, but it was insignificant, Beckett had no way to stop him.

He released and detonated his divine essence to gather the life energy of the entire universe so that he could deliver the final blow.

This was the only way Darkseid could think of after Beckett crushed his heart to collect a large amount of life energy in a very short time to sustain his survival and use it.

It's extreme, and it carries a lot of risk.

But if he succeeds, his gains will be substantial.

The disappearance of the bodies of The Other, Mera, and even Loki and Hela was caused by Darkseid's power.

He needs the active energy within these people, but not their physical bodies.

"You..."

The azure screen displayed Woz's analysis of Darkseid. Beckett seemed to suddenly realize something, and the killing intent on his body gradually faded.

Just as he could devise a psychological warfare strategy against Darkseid in the blink of an eye, Darkseid could also devise a replacement plan for himself after losing his heart in a short time.

"A good solution."

"However, you may have forgotten one thing."

"I am the god of this universe."

"And you are nothing but a despicable outsider, nothing more."

Beckett spoke calmly, as if the murderous person from before was not him at all, which made Woz blink in disbelief.

For some reason, Beckett's tone just now reminded it of the former owner of the Dark Order —the cosmic Titan Thanos.

Do you know?

"My father has always had an ideal."

"An ideal so great that it is devoid of any personal feelings."

"Over the years, he has never wavered because of any difficulties."

"He wants to restore the universe to its proper balance."

Darkseid frowned. He didn't know what Beckett meant by suddenly saying that, but the latter's calm attitude made him feel a little uneasy.

"Unfortunately, he died."

"He died by my hand."

"He was unable to fulfill his dream."

Beckett raised his hand, and the Infinity Gauntlet that he had previously taken off flew back into his palm, along with the six Infinity Stones.

"But you have now disrupted the balance of this universe, Darkseid was on the verge of collapse."

"To achieve the balance my father envisioned, it needs to be restarted."

"So..."

"Want to know the steps I took before restarting this universe, Darkseid?"

Beckett put on the Infinity Gauntlet, raised his hand, and the six gems gleamed with a chilling light!

"Reboot?"

Darkseid suppressed his unease and continued to draw life energy from all corners of the universe brought by the Omega Beam, trying to buy as much time as possible.

Who do you think you are?

Darkseid's unease grew stronger.

"I?"

"I am destiny." Beckett raised his hand, and a Thanos phantom seemed to appear behind him, moving in sync with his movements.

"Lord Thanos?!"

The only surviving Artificial Intelligence, Woz, stared wide-eyed at the phantom behind Beckett that moved in sync with his movements.

He rubbed his eyes in disbelief, and upon closer inspection, he found nothing behind Beckett except for the countless stars that had already vanished.

Snap!

The crisp the Snap, accompanied by the disappearance of more than half of all life in the universe, caused Darkseid's divine expression to freeze instantly.

Where is the inexhaustible source of life energy?!

What about the living beings in this universe?!

Where are they?!

Where did you go?!

The long-distance debt collection has come to a temporary end; it's a pity we can finally take a break...

Ah, this wave felt so good...

By the way, some people guessed the plot of the Dragon Ball spin-off, but I can only say you were all wrong, hehe.

Am I the kind of person who takes the conventional path?!

I don't really follow the original plot at all. I just find a starting point and write about the changes that occur after the protagonist enters the story, hehe.

I've always believed that fan fiction that doesn't dare to rewrite the plot can't even be considered fan fiction.

If it's just following someone else's existing plot and making minor tweaks, I might as well watch the original series again.

Also, you guys guessed wrong about the final ending of the Marvel series (hehehe, I'm laughing smugly).
