Alright, the Skrulls can probably be temporarily ruled out.
Regardless of whether the Skrulls used to work for the Eternal, right now, the Skrulls' situation is indeed very awkward.
Their homeland was destroyed, and only hundreds of thousands of people from the entire Planet survived, secretly hiding on Earth like mice, cowering in the nuclear radiation zone.
Ever since Tony discovered this shocking truth, he had already developed corresponding drones to monitor these people non-stop, 24/7.
Fury also deployed corresponding satellites to monitor every move of those aliens.
It can be said that apart from those Skrulls currently operating in the open, helping Fury, the hundreds of thousands of Skrulls are completely a group of interstellar refugees.
They haven't done anything except barely survive.
The possibility of them working for the Eternal is really not high.
As for the Kree?
According to what Tony learned from Thor, this race is still a relatively powerful race in the Universe, still in a flourishing stage of civilization.
It's hard to judge.
But no matter what, the Kree are from another Planet.
Apart from the war with the Skrulls back then, the diary also didn't mention them invading Earth again.
Not even once.
So compared to the Kree, Tony is currently more concerned with the Eternal.
"Ikaris", "Sprite".
These two names immediately caught Tony's high attention.
This is the first time the diary has revealed the identities of two Eternal.
Ikaris is just a name; Tony can't analyze anything from it right now.
But just by his incredibly awesome way of committing suicide, it's clear.
Flying into the Sun!
This at least indicates two problems.
First, Ikaris can fly, and can easily fly directly from Earth to the Sun.
To be able to do such a thing, his flight speed goes without saying; more importantly, his physical quality is also shockingly powerful.
After all, such a high speed cannot be sustained without corresponding physical quality.
Second, it's the abnormal physical quality of Ikaris.
He even flew into the Sun to commit suicide, which at least means he can survive in the Sun for a period of time, right?
Otherwise, how could he fly in?
No need to look at anything else, just the ability to fly and the ability of his physical body to temporarily survive in the Sun are enough to make one's heart pound.
As for Sprite?
This is undoubtedly a super-powered individual who can control Water, right?
Tony can't judge how strong she is right now, but her strength should also be not weak, even stronger than most other Eternal.
The diary mentioned that the Eternal broke out in a civil war because of tiamut's birth!
Regarding this civil war, the diary only briefly described it with a few words, but Tony still summarized a lot from the existing intelligence.
After all, if Pym Particles could perfectly save Earth, Ikaris wouldn't have opposed it!
What does this mean?
In the future, or rather, in another Universe, other Eternal also tried to save Earth from tiamut.
Didn't it just say before that the Eternal can prevent tiamut's "breaking out of the shell"?
It's just that the other Eternal's prevention methods were not as perfect as using Pym Particles, and there was a high possibility of harming tiamut's life.
So Ikaris, this guy who was loyal to Arishem the Judge, jumped out and opposed the plans of the other Eternal.
Further escalating into a battle.
So, this so-called civil war should be Ikaris and Sprite fighting against all the other Eternal!
The strength of Ikaris and Sprite becomes even more apparent.
In addition, Tony also has a better understanding of the stance of these Eternal.
First, the Eternal helped Asgard fight the Frost Giant, and later, the other Eternal, excluding Ikaris and Sprite, prevented tiamut's "divine manifestation."
Tony feels that the Eternal can still be regarded as allies.
At the very least, he considers the Eternal, excluding Ikaris and Sprite, as allies.
It seems that after this round of spoilers, he can try to find the Eternal.
[Well, not all Eternal. Didn't Purple Sweet Potato not betray Arishem the Judge?]
[Speaking of which, who would have thought that Purple Sweet Potato was also an Eternal?]
[However, Purple Sweet Potato's specific origin feels very different from those tool-like Eternal like Ikaris.]
[After all, Purple Sweet Potato has been collecting Infinity Stones his entire life. Things like eliminating the Deviant and ensuring tiamut's creation seem to have nothing to do with him at all.]
[Not only irrelevant, Purple Sweet Potato greatly interfered with tiamut's creation!]
[But what's strange is that Arishem the Judge didn't take any measures against this, letting it be from beginning to end.]
What!
Purple Sweet Potato is actually an Eternal!
Tony's face showed uncontrollable surprise.
It must be said that this kind of thing really greatly exceeded Playboy's expectations.
All this time, Tony had only regarded Purple Sweet Potato as a relatively powerful alien, nothing more.
He had never thought that Purple Sweet Potato would have such an origin.
Especially since Tony had always had a good impression of the Eternal, and subconsciously believed that the Eternal could serve as his allies.
As a result, in the blink of an eye, the diary gave him a divine twist, severely hurting Tony's old back.
"Eliminate the Deviant?"
"Ensure tiamut's creation?"
And then, Tony's brow couldn't help but wrinkle slightly.
Undoubtedly, this was the mission of Ikaris's branch of Eternal, which was consistent with Tony's previous speculation.
Even the Celestials attach great importance to racial continuation; they have always been concerned about tiamut's gestation.
They even specifically created the Eternal for this purpose.
So this is the origin of the Eternal?
The diary was right, they really are proper tool-men.
However, what kind of race are the Deviant?
Why did the Celestials specifically create a race to eliminate them?
Tony clearly remembers that the Deviant were also a race created by the Celestials!
Could it be because the Deviant interfered with tiamut's creation?
Playboy fell into deep thought, immediately feeling a headache.
Undoubtedly, there must be some complex connection between the Deviant, the Celestials, and the Eternal; it should be a deep, unfathomable water.
But what exactly is going on is not something Tony can figure out in a short time.
Playboy's attention was soon drawn to another unexpected piece of information:
Purple Sweet Potato actually interfered with tiamut's creation?
Who is Purple Sweet Potato?
Undoubtedly, the big villain!
And a super villain who eliminated half of the life in the Universe!
What about tiamut's creation?
It represents the destruction of Earth!
So the diary is saying that Purple Sweet Potato, this super villain, actually interfered with tiamut destroying Earth?
Leaving aside other factors, if we analyze it solely from the result, Purple Sweet Potato actually did a good thing?
It must be said that this kind of thing was truly unexpected by Playboy.
[Actually, if Purple Sweet Potato was willing, not only interfering with tiamut's creation, I think completely solving this trouble would be no problem.]
[After all, by collecting all the Stones, Purple Sweet Potato possessed the most powerful force in the Universe, almost omnipotent!]
[It's just a pity that Purple Sweet Potato couldn't do this, but the Avengers could try.]
[Compared to Pym Particles, the Infinity Stones are obviously more reliable.]
[After all, Pym Particles actually carry a certain degree of risk.]
[I remember Galactus in TRN666, after being shrunk for a period of time, returned to normal!]
[The Celestials are also unpredictable.]
[You should know that some individuals among them are even stronger than Galactus.]
[No one knows what rank tiamut is at.]
Tony: "..."
Playboy suddenly felt a little speechless.
He had gained great confidence in Pym Particles because the diary had previously said that even Galactus had fallen for it.
He thought he had truly mastered the infallible way to deal with the Celestials.
The result?
Zhou Cheng only spoke half the truth!
He just knew it, why did Creator Gods feel so low?
Would they be shrunk by something developed by a scientist on Earth?
After all that, it was only temporary!
Of course, considering Galactus's identity,
Even if Pym Particles can only temporarily shrink him, it's actually incredible enough.
It's just that Tony never expected that the strength of some Celestials would be so suffocatingly powerful?
They are comparable to Creator Gods?
Even though Tony already knew from the diary's spoilers that the Celestials were a group of incredibly awesome super Gods, he never thought they could be so awesome!
And if that's the case, Tony's confidence in Pym Particles decreased even further.
As for the Infinity Stones...
Tony couldn't help but show a bitter smile.
This method certainly sounds much more reliable, but correspondingly, the difficulty has also increased by who knows how many times!
What are the Infinity Stones?
All this time, although the diary didn't describe the Infinity Stones much, through various clues, everyone already knew that they must be extremely precious treasures throughout the Universe.
This time, the diary even explicitly pointed out: collecting all the Stones grants the most powerful force in the entire Universe.
Almost omnipotent!
This level, this tier, is simply ridiculously high.
Even if he thought with his leg, Tony knew what collecting such things truly meant.
That's not even something the current Earth is qualified to touch.
Just think of Odin.
Why did a God King finally give up collecting the Infinity Stones?
No one knows the reason, after all, the diary didn't mention it.
But whatever the reason, for a God King to give up speaks volumes.
However, soon, Playboy cheered up again.
Yes, collecting the Infinity Stones will certainly be an extremely difficult task.
But what Tony is best at is solving problems!
As long as Tony is willing, there is nothing that cannot be accomplished, even collecting the Infinity Stones.
Didn't the diary also spoil it, that the future Avengers would start collecting the Infinity Stones?
If Purple Sweet Potato collected the Infinity Stones, his purpose was to Snap and erase half of the life in the Universe.
But the diary never mentioned the Avengers' purpose for collecting the Infinity Stones.
Everyone always guessed it was to stop Purple Sweet Potato.
However, undoubtedly, the Avengers' actions failed, as "full-Stones Purple Sweet Potato" had already made a dazzling appearance and even Snapped in the Infinity War.
Successfully erased half of the life in the Universe!
This is very likely why the Avengers chose to travel back in time to collect the Stones.
Because in reality, they couldn't defeat the full-Stones Purple Sweet Potato.
They could only choose such an extreme method.
That's why the Avengers got the Stones from the past, gained enough power to contend with Purple Sweet Potato, returned, and then the Endgame War broke out!
This was Playboy's previous guess.
But now, Tony wonders if, besides dealing with Purple Sweet Potato, the Avengers had another purpose: to solve the Celestials' trouble?
[Anyway, after the Endgame War, the Avengers successfully collected the Infinity Stones from the past, didn't they?]
[They even successfully Snapped, saving all the creatures that Purple Sweet Potato had erased.]
[Snapping once is a Snap, Snapping twice is also a Snap, isn't it?]
[It's just that Hulk will be unlucky, losing another arm.]
[What's more, Hulk's physical quality is so abnormal.]
[Although it's unknown whether it was natural healing or treatment, his arm, which was damaged by the Infinity Stones' energy, eventually healed.]
[But this is also unavoidable; Hulk Snapping at most just loses an arm, but others Snapping means losing their life. Look how miserably Tony died.]
The Avengers' mission to collect the Stones was indeed successful!
Tony was not surprised by this result; various clues in the diary had actually indicated this.
The only regret is that Black Widow died permanently in this operation, and even the Snap couldn't save her.
So besides Black Widow?
Were there any other Avengers who died in this operation?
The diary didn't mention it, and Playboy didn't know.
But there's one thing.
From the diary's tone, it's clear that the one who Snapped and saved half of the life in the Universe erased by Purple Sweet Potato was Hulk?
Tony was not surprised that the creatures erased by Purple Sweet Potato were saved, and he even guessed this outcome early on.
After all, if such a human tragedy, oh no, it should be said a Universe tragedy, really happened, the Avengers couldn't possibly ignore it.
But, Hulk?
The one who Snapped in the Endgame War was clearly Tony!
Plus, the diary had also mentioned before that Tony died to save the World!
