"It's him again!" Even from a distance, Tony immediately recognized the familiar figure from the footage. It was that mysterious guy again, causing more trouble. It was giving him a headache. It seemed like this "mysterious person" was involved in almost everything that had happened recently.
"Can't he just settle down for a bit?" Tony looked utterly helpless. This wasn't a fight they could get involved in, but they couldn't just ignore it, which was a huge problem.
"Who's his opponent?" Wanda leaned forward, squinting to get a better look at the other person on the screen. Cassius was so powerful, yet someone was fighting him as an equal? The commotion they had caused made her secretly worried.
"I don't know him, but he looks familiar." Steve frowned at the screen, a look of reminiscence in his eyes. He felt like he had seen this person somewhere before, but he couldn't remember where. The only thing he could be sure of was that this person had a very strong background.
"Friday, scan his identity!" Tony immediately ordered Friday to scan the person's identity. If he could fight the mysterious person, he was definitely powerful. No matter what the underlying reasons were, he had to find out who this person was.
[Boss, I've scanned the subject. According to all available records, the mysterious person's opponent is likely Asgard's All-Father, Odin!] Friday quickly replied.
When Friday said that, everyone present was shocked. Nobody had expected the mysterious person's opponent to be the All-Father. The Avengers all knew the stories of Norse mythology, and that made them even more aware of Odin's power.
Odin was the most powerful being among all the gods. Thor had told them more than once that Odin was his father. He even admitted that he could never defeat him. This was a testament to how powerful Odin was.
But now, Odin was the mysterious person's enemy.
"Why are they fighting?" Steve brought up the most important question.
While the mysterious person was powerful, he had never actively tried to harm humans or use his power to fight others without reason. Every time he appeared, there was a reason. From all their observations, this person seemed to be on humanity's side.
But now, this mysterious person was in a conflict with Odin. No matter how you looked at it, something wasn't right! And even if they wanted to intervene, they didn't know which side to take.
"I think it's probably related to Hela!" Tony noticed a figure on the screen. Pointing at the figure, he offered his analysis. "It's likely that Thor brought Odin here to deal with Hela!"
Everyone immediately understood. They knew Hela was under the mysterious person's command. To take Hela away, they would need his permission. But given the mysterious person's arrogant nature, he probably wouldn't agree, which led to a fight.
"This mysterious person is too crazy. He just started fighting Odin without a word!" Rhodey sighed, his emotions a mess. Logically, they should be on the mysterious person's side. If it weren't for him, the team would have fallen apart back then. But Thor was their teammate. On top of that, they didn't even know how to get involved in this kind of fight. It would be a problem just getting close!
'I hope Cassius is okay.' Wanda looked at the fierce battle in the distance, secretly praying in her heart. Although she knew Cassius was strong, his opponent was the All-Father, Odin. His power must be immense, and he had countless years of experience! Even from a distance, Wanda could clearly feel the terrifying energy coming from him. After all, he was a god.
"What are your thoughts on the fight between the mysterious person and All-Father Odin?" Natasha noticed the look of worry on Wanda's face and changed the subject. They all wanted to know what the current situation was.
"Even though the mysterious person is strong, he chose the wrong opponent. His opponent is All-Father Odin, after all!" Steve didn't think the mysterious person would win. While he was much, much stronger than them, Thor had brought the most powerful being in all of Asgard. He couldn't possibly defeat All-Father Odin, the being who had united the Nine Realms.
"I agree. How could a human ever be a match for a god?" Rhodey nodded in thought. While the mysterious person's power was already incredibly strong, it was still within the realm of humanity.
Wanda heard her teammates' conversation and became even more worried. But even so, all she could do was worry, because even with her Chaos Magic, it would be difficult for her to intervene in a battle of this scale. She would struggle just to withstand the aftershocks!
Bang!
At this moment, the dust and smoke that covered the sky dispersed. A golden light shone, and an endless glow broke through the clouds. A boundless heat wave surged, and the ground continued to tremble slightly.
"That's not right! Odin is losing!" Rhodey's eyes almost popped out of his head when he saw Odin get slammed into the ground. He was completely dumbfounded! Was this still a human? That was All-Father Odin! Slamming All-Father Odin into the ground was completely beyond his expectations.
In the vast dust and fog, the disheveled figure of All-Father Odin strode out, his eyes suppressing an unspeakable rage. He had never imagined that a Midgardian could obtain such terrifying power. His use of the Phoenix Force was far beyond what he had imagined. He was one of the few who could use the Phoenix Force so effectively among all the hosts in the entire universe.
"Young man, I'll admit you are very strong." All-Father Odin's single eye glowed with an increasingly brilliant golden light. Even though he had just been slammed into the dirt, he didn't show any sign of discouragement.
While he had just used his full power, he still had a few tricks up his sleeve. He just didn't want to use that method because it always had some side effects. But if it was to deal with this young man, he would use it without hesitation!
"You're not so bad, old man." Cassius's lips curled into a smile. He slowly floated down to the ground. He put his hands back in his pockets, his eyes fixed on Odin. His words were still full of playfulness, as if the last battle was just a small warmup. He even let out a yawn. His every move was a provocation to Odin.
However, he had to admit that Odin was much easier to fight. Even if he released a little more power, he wouldn't have to worry about accidentally killing Odin. This was a rare, top-tier punching bag. If it had been anyone else, they would have been turned to dust!
"Heh, I hope you'll still be standing to speak to me after this." Fire danced in Odin's eyes. Every word Cassius spoke successfully got on his nerves. He took a deep breath, clenched Gungnir, and his expression suddenly turned serious. He muttered a spell to his spear:
"For the Nine Realms, for Asgard, may the gods, the ancestors, and the All-Fathers grant me supreme power. Let this old man, who stumbles in the twilight of his life, offer himself up once more."
As he chanted, threads of golden light, containing endless power, wrapped around Odin's body.
"What are you chanting at a spear, you old geezer?" Cassius's eyes were full of playfulness. Not only did he not go to interrupt Odin's spell, but he also quietly watched what he would do. He found it hilarious that this spell took so long to cast. But he didn't mind. He wanted to see what would happen next. As long as it didn't disappoint him!
Boom!
A terrifying aura, like that of a primordial beast, suddenly erupted. A massive shockwave surged outward. In the midst of the gale, a wave of unstoppable imperial might swept through.
It was clear that Odin's body had changed. His relatively short stature grew slightly taller, and his white hair seemed to have reverted to its prime, turning a golden yellow. His eyes became incredibly sharp. If the previous Odin had a hint of old age, this Odin was like a newly forged sword. His sharp aura, like a blade, slashed out in all directions!
"This aura..." In the distance, Hela's face turned pale. She felt this terrifying aura. Even her legs began to tremble uncontrollably.
"My father's divine might!" She could clearly feel how terrifying and powerful this energy was. She had never felt this kind of power before. If she had to compare it, it would be to the time, many years ago, when Odin fought the Celestials.
Thor's eyes lit up. He raised his right hand and roared, "Long live Asgard! Asgard will be victorious!"
He had thought his father was no match for Cassius, but he hadn't expected his father to be serious at this moment. The terrifying power was something he had never seen before. From a distance, Odin looked like a bottomless abyss. He couldn't even tell how powerful this force was; it was like a boundless ocean.
The terrifying power continued to spread in all directions. From this, he knew for sure that they would win this time! After all, this was his father being serious. Even the Celestials were no match for his father, let alone a Midgardian!
"Long live Asgard! Asgard will be victorious!"
"..."
The golden-armored warriors behind them also raised their weapons, shouting along with Thor.
"Is this... a true god..." In the Quinjet, Tony felt like he couldn't breathe. This was a terrifying power, a power that made him feel completely helpless, unable to fight back in the slightest.
All-Father Odin now looked like a god standing between heaven and earth.
"I can't believe this is Odin's true power." Steve looked at this seemingly invincible being. In his heart, he felt like an ant. He had never felt that he was weaker than anyone, but at this moment, that feeling surged clearly into his mind. This was a power that no human could ever resist.
'I hope Cassius... will be okay!' The scarlet glow around Wanda's body unconsciously flared up. She wanted to help Cassius. But she knew that if she intervened, she wouldn't be helping him. She would just be a burden!
"Good. You finally look a little more respectable!" The lazy look in Cassius's eyes was replaced with a hint of battle intent. He had been wanting to use his full power for a while now. He had encountered Dormammu, but fighting someone who could revive infinitely was no fun. But this Odin seemed much more interesting to fight.
He wanted to truly experience Odin's full power! After all, Odin had gone all out, so he couldn't just stand there looking apathetic.
The next second, a dark red light surrounded his body. Underneath his clothes, the runes flashed with a faint glow. If he weren't worried about being too outrageous, he would have experimented with the Ancient Doomsday. Also, to deal with Odin, he didn't need to actively seek death. He wasn't bored enough to get killed a few times for no reason.
Boom!
"For the glory of Asgard!" Odin's roar echoed in the sky. He charged directly at Cassius, swinging the divine spear in his hand. With the swing, a powerful force was unleashed.
Countless golden lights surged toward Cassius, covering the sky. The terrifying fluctuations instantly destroyed everything in their path. Countless rocks were shattered. The black clouds in the sky dispersed, turning into rain. Under the dark red light, it was as if it was raining blood.
Boom!
Cassius was completely enveloped in the dark red Phoenix Force. His body moved. An explosion instantly erupted where he stood. The speed of Cassius's movement even created a vacuum where no rain could fall.
The next second, with a huge boom, Cassius and Odin collided. The two figures, one dark red and one golden, shot into the sky. They each occupied half of the sky.
"It's over. Odin will win this time!" Hela gritted her teeth. She had actually known about this ability of Odin's. It allowed him to return to his prime for a period of time. However, it required a period of time to cast the spell. But Cassius had no intention of interrupting him. The Odin who had cast this spell would be incredibly terrifying, no longer the old man in the twilight of his life.
"My father will definitely be able to kill that Cassius!" Thor clenched his fists in excitement. Golden and dark red lights intertwined in the sky. It was as if countless beams of light were constantly colliding and separating.
In the Quinjet, the members of the Avengers all had complex expressions. They didn't want either side to win, as neither outcome would be good.
The next second, the two figures almost disappeared at the same time. The speed of the light beams colliding became faster and faster. The dark red energy and golden energy constantly collided! The air continuously vibrated, and they could even see the high-temperature fluctuations created by the collisions.
Odin continued to inject the Odinforce into Gungnir. He spun his hands, and the spear instantly unleashed endless power, creating a fierce gale in the air. The visible shockwave surged into the sky.
In the blink of an eye, the divine spear stabbed at Cassius. Cassius faced the heavy blow, his eyes filled with battle intent, and he directly blocked it with his fist.
Bang!
The moment his body blocked the attack, a humming sound rang out. It actually made Odin's arms go numb!
"How is this possible?! This is a divine artifact!" Odin's expression changed dramatically, but then he became incredibly furious and swung the spear repeatedly.
Once!
Twice!
Three times!
Each strike was stronger than the last, unleashing an even fiercer power. But Cassius blocked all of them with his bare hands!
"It seems the gods can't help you." Cassius's lips curled into a smile. He looked at Odin's Gungnir with a playful expression. "Is this Gungnir? It's nothing special!"
Seeing Cassius's nonchalant attitude, Odin's body trembled with rage. He injected all of his power into Gungnir. An aura of endless destruction emanated from the spear. The terrifying aura alone caused the black clouds in the sky to completely disperse.
Odin injected all of his power into Gungnir and swung it down with a powerful strike. A golden torrent, released from the divine spear, surged forward, and a vast golden light enveloped everything!
