"Buddy, what's there to think about? Do you know about the benefits and perks of our X-Force?"

Deadpool picked up the dollars from the hood of the car, put his arm around Logan's shoulder, and generously stuffed a thick stack of them into his own pocket, leaving only one dollar for Logan.

"..."

Logan became increasingly determined; the pit was too big, and he had to think twice before acting, otherwise he would fall in and not be able to climb out.

Bang!

A gunshot startled Logan, who was stunned by the unexpected turn of events. Russell, codenamed "Angel," skillfully blew Captain Deadpool's head off.

They seized power?

Russell tore open Deadpool's pocket, took out a stack of US dollars, and stuffed them into Logan's pocket. "Take this to help with household expenses. How can a grown man hold his head high in front of his elders and daughters if he doesn't have some pocket money on him!"

"You... he... you... you killed the captain?"

Seeing Logan's incoherent speech, Russell calmly said, "Don't get excited. The captain is meant to be blown up. This is standard practice for our team. You used to do it too."

"?"

Logan was dumbfounded again. What did he mean by saying he used to do that too? How could he possibly do something so Silly Bird?

"Huh, what just happened? Everything went black..." Deadpool grabbed Logan's trouser leg and scrambled to his feet, complaining, "Russell, did you shoot me again?"

Logan suddenly realized. "He has the healing factor, and you two are both Mutants!"

"Barely!"

Russell smiled and said, "Logan, this is my final reward: to completely restore your healing factor and turn you back into the fearless Wolverine. Now, do you still want to think about it?"

"No, I'm willing to join the X-Force," Logan replied calmly. He needed the power to protect his last treasure.

It's done!

Russell and Deadpool high-fived, the third member joined the team, it was time to leave this mundane world.

Deadpool laughed like a pig. With the three of them gathered, his carefully prepared cool entrance look could finally be put to use. "Logan, say 'Captain' and let me hear it."

"..."

Logan stared blankly ahead, his gaze lingering on the scene, like a philosopher contemplating life.

At that moment, he couldn't hear anything.

"You damn bastard, how dare you ignore Deadpool! I'll make you..."

Deadpool was furious and decided to give the newcomer a hard time. The familiar figure suddenly went black, and then he knew nothing more.

Bang!

Russell blew on the muzzle of his gun. "Logan, now that you've joined the team, hurry up and take care of the aftermath. Time waits for no one; we should head to the next world."

What does "the next world" mean?

"We are not from this world. We are here specifically to invite you to join our team. We won't be staying for long," Russell explained.

Why didn't you say so sooner?

"Wait, didn't I just say that?"

"..."

Five minutes later, Logan stared blankly at the brand-new luxury car in front of him. Russell had bought a hammer from the supermarket, and after a series of bangs and clangs, the Chrysler E8, riddled with bullet holes, had become a stretched Cadillac Escalade, and it was even bulletproof!

Can anyone tell him why just a light tap with a hammer could change both the car logo and the license plate?

And what's the correct way to swing a hammer to turn black car paint white?

Logan was speechless, blaming everything on Russell's abilities. Only after being pushed into the driver's seat did he realize, "Wait a minute, if we're going to leave this world, then I won't join. I can't abandon Charles and Laura."

Russell looked at Deadpool upon hearing this, Wade shrugged. "No problem, just pack them up and take them to the next world, leave them to the X-Men there to take care of the Mutants kids, they're Olympic level."

"X-Men from other worlds, you... Captain, are you serious?"

Logan's eyes lit up with excitement. If what Deadpool said was true, then this terrible world could go to hell.

"Of course, we worked with the X-Men in the last world." Deadpool was both excited and disappointed. He was excited because Logan had finally called him Captain, but disappointed because he suspected Logan was using the opportunity to blackmail him and felt no sense of accomplishment.

A jerk is just being pretentious!

Russell gave Deadpool a disdainful look, then took out a digital camera and handed it to Logan: "If you don't believe me, I have some photos here, taken inside the spaceship. Jean, Ororo, and I are good friends; we've even danced together."

Logan curiously approached, his expression immediately changing drastically. "Who is this woman? Why isn't she wearing any clothes?"

"A mistake! A mistake!"

Russell hurriedly put away his digital camera, having just quickly clicked on the album of 18-year-old Black Widow from the "Eight Legged Freaks" world, and then opened the album labeled "Silly Bird X-Men" to show it off to Logan.

Seeing the silly photos of his acquaintances, Logan was filled with nostalgia and revealed a long-lost warm smile.

He quickly recalled the photos of 18-year-old Black Widow and was completely taken aback. His eyes widened as he looked at Russell: "Tell me, what else did you do besides take photos?"

"No, I just drew a turtle on the surface of the zither."

"What? That turtle wasn't drawn by Ororo?"

Russell: "..."

Why are you getting so excited about your Laser Eyes wife?!

In the back row, Deadpool was furious. He had also seen the photo of the young Black Widow: "Russell, you damn bastard! I treated you like a brother, and you actually seduced my wife!"

Russell was immediately displeased. "Wade, don't talk nonsense. She's a Canadian's wife, and an ex-wife at that. She has nothing to do with you."

"I'm connected! I'm that damn Canadian! Draw your gun, I challenge you to a duel!"

Bang!

Logan: "..."

As a newcomer, he was worried about the chaotic interpersonal relationships within the team, always feeling that they could disband at any time.

It took about fifteen minutes for the Cadillac Escalade to return to the hotel. It shouldn't have taken that long, but Deadpool's repeated demands for a duel delayed the return.

Looking at his younger self in the rearview mirror, Logan smiled with satisfaction, preparing to give Professor X a surprise.

They will leave this world filled with despair, reunite with their former companions, and no longer have to live in hiding. A wonderful life is about to begin; not only will Professor X's illness be cured, but Laura will also make many friends her own age and have the opportunity to receive an education.

He was cool for only three seconds!

Logan had just stepped out of the car when he screamed and fell to his knees. His brain was throbbing with pain as if it were being stabbed with needles. Everyone around him froze in place, and several car accidents even occurred on the road.

Professor X has had another episode!

The idea that the most Mind Stone gifted Mutants on Earth has developed brain atrophy and needs medication to slow down Alzheimer's disease sounds ironic, but if it actually happened, it would be a devastating disaster.

The X-Men disappeared because Professor X suffered a mental breakdown and lost control of his Mind Stone abilities, unknowingly killing his student.

Logan wouldn't allow the tragedy to repeat itself, so he scrambled through the hotel entrance and headed towards the elevator.

"Hey buddy, need any help?"

Deadpool sidled up to Logan, still unaware that Professor X had already kicked him out of the 'human' camp, even if it was the Alzheimer's version of Professor X.

Russell's forehead crackled with Electric Arc as he helped Logan into the elevator and pressed the button for the 12th floor. The three entered the room to find several heavily armed soldiers, also frozen in place by Professor X's powers.

Knowing the plot, Deadpool drew his twin swords and slit their throats one by one. After Logan injected himself with the drug, Professor X, who had gone berserk due to shock, regained his senses and managed to stop his Mind Stone abilities in time.

"Charles, are you alright?" Logan asked, panting.

Professor X stared blankly at the now younger Logan, and stammered, "It's bad, the condition has worsened, and it's affecting my vision."

The little girl lying on the floor, Laura with the ID X-23, rubbed her eyes and then opened her mouth into an "O" shape.

"No time to explain, get in the car!" The pursuers were nearby. Logan pushed the professor's wheelchair out of the room, and the group took the elevator downstairs, started the car, and drove away.

After some explanation, Professor X finally understood that his eyesight was fine, at least for now; the problem was with Logan.

"It's nice to see you again, Professor X."

Russell greeted Professor X politely, and the instant their eyes met, a flash of Electric Arc appeared in his hair as he activated a barrier protecting him from Mind Stone abilities.

Professor X gave a simple, honest smile, like a real senile old man, just as he was trying to find a breakthrough with Deadpool, when he saw Russell draw his gun, aim, and fire in one smooth motion.

Bang!

"Professor, I advise you not to do this. You're already senile and can't handle Wade's memories. I don't know what will happen to you after you see them, but I can assure you, Logan will go crazy!" Russell said with a chuckle, then stylishly put his Desert Eagle back into its holster.

He actually knew it; it was just adding insult to injury, adding a Silly Bird persona to the existing Alzheimer's disease.

Laura stared intently at Russell's armor, her eyes filled with curiosity and admiration. The comics were right; superheroes who could travel through time did exist.

Logan, who was driving, caught a glimpse of Laura in the rearview mirror, and his eyes instantly sharpened. He vowed to himself that he would rather die than let Laura be alone with Deadpool and Russell...

No, not even breathing the same air!
