Facing an opponent who could read your thoughts at any moment, Steve Rogers could not help feeling a deep sense of powerlessness.
But once he realized that Leon's own strength had long surpassed the limits of their meager imagination, Steve Rogers, who had previously been worrying needlessly, instead felt relieved.
The gap was simply too vast. There was no need to stay vigilant at all.
If Leon wanted to attack them, they would not even have time to react. Pietro alone could rely on Super Speed far beyond anything they remembered to wipe them all out.
Although Steve Rogers had been injected with the Super Soldier Serum, he did not think his physique was stronger than Cull Obsidian under Thanos's command.
Or rather, aside from Thor, Hulk, and Carol, nearly everyone in the Avengers Alliance was fragile. They had no way to defend against or block a speed-type assassin like Pietro, who was impossible to guard against. At most, they could cosplay as speed bumps before collapsing to the ground and sighing:
Lord Pietro, we're terribly sorry we couldn't let you have your fill~
With that thought, Steve Rogers finally let it go completely.
Since he could neither figure Leon out nor defeat him, he could only lie flat and enjoy it with a clear conscience.
Just as Steve Rogers resolved to struggle on as a useless salted fish lying flat, God Wanda's purge of Thanos's fleet gradually reached its end.
Though she possessed countless large-scale methods for mowing down enemies, she seemed to have chosen the most primitive—and most terrifying—method of ending the battle simply to indulge in cruelty.
Once there were no living beings left around the battlefield apart from the Avengers and Leon's group of "Celestial Dragons," God Wanda happily exited her planet-sized Energy Giant Form.
