Under the terrifying repulsive force, not even a scrap of flesh remained of the ordinary people. A vast cloud of blood hung in front of the White House like a mist, giving off a sharp, metallic stench that lingered...
The supporters who had once stood with him screamed at the sight. Some even fainted from fear.
The White Devil stood in the air, ignoring the soldiers before him, and issued a declaration to the president inside the White House:
He, the White Devil, had arrived!
The soldiers before him stood ready, their gazes fixed on the White Devil, who hovered in the air like a god.
Though fully armed, they felt no sense of safety. Not one of them believed they could defeat the White Devil.
Whether it was the terrifying repulsive force that had just obliterated everything with a casual strike, or any one of his many previous, dazzling feats, it was clear that the White Devil was beyond their ability to fight!
Some of the soldiers were trembling, too. They had been to war and witnessed hell on earth, but nothing like this.
Amid the vast blood mist, the White Devil hovered in the air. The breeze carried the thick stench of blood, bearing the purest malice as it swept toward them, threatening to swallow them whole!
If this went on, even these well-trained soldiers might flee. They were human, too, and feared death—especially when faced with an enemy who was clearly invincible and a battle they could never win!
The president inside the White House had also realized that the White Devil had arrived. He immediately understood...
The White Devil was here!
He had to be seeking revenge for the military's attack on him some time ago!
Damn it! Damn it! What should he do?
The president didn't try to escape. According to intelligence, the White Devil could fly at speeds exceeding Mach 10, had long-range attack capabilities, and possessed an extensive range of perception!
The moment the White Devil appeared, he had already been locked on. If the president dared to run, all that awaited him was death!
Suddenly, the president thought of something and immediately said to his bewildered aide:
"Contact the X-Men and tell them to stop the White Devil. If he kills me, the Mutant Liberation Treaty will never be passed!"
Even without the president's warning, the X-Men would never let the White Devil do as he pleased.
But by the time they tried to stop him, it was already too late...
Black lightning erupted, blood spread across the area, and in an instant, the surroundings became a living hell!
Professor X watched the scene in the distance, and his heart sank...
The White Devil had killed hundreds of civilians. No matter how well they handled things afterward, it would be difficult to pass the Mutant Liberation Treaty now!
Watching the White Devil taunt the White House, the president, and the entire U.S. government and its officials, Professor X's expression turned grave. He spoke into the minds of the X-Men:
"We must not let the White Devil kill the president. Otherwise, the divide between mutants and humans will never be bridged, and we'll remain enemies forever!"
Hearing Professor X's words, the X-Men charged toward the White Devil!
Storm flew straight into the air and challenged him:
"Why are you doing this? Don't you understand that this will only worsen relations between mutants and humans?"
The White Devil ignored her...
Cyclops arrived soon after and challenged the White Devil as well:
"Why? You're a mutant too, so why are you trying to stop the Mutant Liberation Treaty from being passed?!"
The White Devil ignored him...
Mystique stepped out from the crowd, changing back to her original appearance. She glared up at the White Devil and shouted in hatred:
"You've destroyed decades of our efforts! You've ruined the future of countless mutants! You're beyond forgiveness!"
But the White Devil still didn't answer. His expression remained indifferent as he stared ahead, ignoring her fury and caring nothing for the future of mutants. He simply stood high above them in the sky!
Cyclops could no longer endure the White Devil's lofty attitude. He took off his glasses, and searing beams from another dimension poured endlessly out through his eyes!
At the same time, Storm unleashed her power. A gale swept through the area, the sky darkened, and violent lightning crashed down from above, attacking the White Devil!
Yet even as these attacks struck him, the White Devil didn't react at all. He simply let them hit him!
Seeing this, Cyclops looked excited. He hadn't expected the White Devil to be so arrogant as to ignore their attacks completely. Their slim chances of victory would now increase dramatically!
Against an opponent as nearly impossible to defeat as the White Devil, they finally had a decent chance of winning!
He immediately increased the output of his optic blast, trying to badly wound the White Devil in a single attack. Storm did the same.
But unlike them, Professor X, watching from a distance, didn't relax at the sight. His expression grew even graver!
He had remembered the White Devil's ability to grow without limit, and that his mutant power was almost exactly the same as that of their former terrifying enemy!
"Could it be...?"
The next moment, Cyclops's optic blast and the violent lightning struck the White Devil. To everyone's shock, he emerged without a scratch!
Whether it was the violent lightning or the searing optic blast, both visibly dimmed within several meters of the White Devil, then vanished into his body!
The White Devil had absorbed all that energy!
Professor X finally knew his suspicions were correct. The White Devil's Energy Absorption mutant power had also undergone a transformation. It had reached a level comparable to the Black King's—or even surpassed him!
Su Mu paid no attention to the attacks behind him. The energy from two charging stations might not amount to much, but it would be a waste not to use it.
He took a step forward. A violent repulsive force burst from his body and rapidly spread ahead, first through the lawn, then the fountain, the pavement, and the soil, until it reached the fully armed soldiers!
The next moment, amid a tremendous boom, dust and shredded grass mingled with the vast clouds of blood, then vanished in the gale stirred up by the terrifying repulsive force!
"No!"
At the sight, Cyclops lost control of his emotions. His mutant power surged several times over, but even his optic blast, now several times thicker, only replenished the White Devil's energy. It still couldn't harm him in the slightest!
The X-Men were as weak and helpless before the White Devil as ordinary people were before them!
This was a fundamental difference in power!
Just then, Su Mu sensed a powerful energy rising behind him. Destruction and vitality coexisted within it. It was clearly damaged, yet still majestic!
He felt the energy bypass Energy Absorption and directly break down his body!
The disintegration was far too slow to threaten him, but it still caught the White Devil's interest!
At last, he slowly turned to look at Phoenix, whose eyes were gradually turning crimson in the distance, and smiled brightly...
You think you can treat me like that?
