Rumble-
Walls came crashing down near Mount Fuji, where several bases belonging to Cherry Blossom Country housed large stores of rare metals.
Ebony Maw had used the Space Stone to travel to Cherry Blossom Country with Loki.
Although he could wield the Space Stone in simple ways, he could not easily use it to open a large portal for an extended period.
At this point, Thanos would not set foot on Blue Star lightly.
Nor would he send his elite forces to Blue Star.
In the end, the attack would surely be carried out by expendable auxiliary troops.
The Chitauri, for instance, or mass-produced biological monsters.
It was only a probe to begin with.
Ebony Maw also carried a single-use transporter that Thanos had commissioned especially for him.
He could escape at any moment.
So Ebony Maw decided to follow Loki's suggestion and have Doctor Holger build a spatial gateway that could remain open long enough.
Boundless flames poured down along with combustible material.
For a moment, everyone living around the laboratory looked terrified. Their hearts felt as though a great hand had clenched them tight, their breathing grew labored, and they seemed on the verge of sudden death.
Naturally, Ebony Maw had launched this attack with his telekinesis.
Once it hit the ground, this little island would probably be razed flat!
"This... this..."
Loki's expression remained unchanged, but inwardly, he was panicking.
Who knew this dried-up old husk was so powerful!
If he saw through my bluff, wouldn't I be finished?
Just as the humans on the ground fell into despair, a figure quietly approached, revealing an expressionless face studded with black rods.
"Is that...? That's the king of the Land of Akatsuki!"
"It's God! God!"
"Pain is here! Does that mean we're saved?"
"..."
A flicker of hope
