Chapter 362: The result
As John said that he swirled his hand. And immediately after that an invisible wave flowed outward. This wave spread to the whole of earth and then the entire universe. Like the mutants, the avengers were de-powered now. The people who had powers have now lost their powers. And the superheroes who had special sets of skills lost that particular skill. For example, Clint Barton (he came back to life again after Wanda said 'no more mutants' and this time it was permanent and his existence wasn't dependent on Wanda).
As the wave travelled every member of the Avengers felt it. Eternity, Infinity, the Living Tribunal, Cthon... etc. all felt this change that John just brought in the Earth-616 universe.
"What the hell is this? Is this some kind of joke?" Tony said as he didn't feel much. But when he tried directing his armor from his nano particles it didn't come out. John, who was in Alien X form, returned back to normal.
"I just depowered all of the Avengers. Including the ones who are in the universe right now. Since the mutants suffered this fate, why will the Avengers be left behind? Let you be in the same playing field as them." John said.
Peter Parker, Ms. Marvel, Black Panther all had felt it. They weren't sure what just happened but they could feel that they lost the powers. Peter fell on his knees. He had been with his powers for such a long time that he had forgotten what it was like to be normal. Reed lost his powers too and even his high intellect. Strange lost his magic, She-Hulk was back to normal. Steve Rogers was now back to the skinny guy he was before World War 2.
Everyone has lost what they were best at.
"This is impossible. What is this? What are you?" Strange said as he couldn't believe it.
"I just did what Wanda did to the mutants. She is a Nexus being, I doubt you even know what that term means. If she had done anything out of her limits she would have been taken away. But you all decided to play God. So here I am playing the actual God. Avengers will no longer be of service for this planet, this galaxy and this universe." John said.
"Why are you doing this?" Reed asked. They didn't even care anymore what John's powers were. After Wanda's powers nobody wasn't sure how far a human being could reach in terms of power levels.
"Why am I doing this? Because it's fun Reed. It's fun. I want to show you all how desperate the mutants are feeling right now. Let you feel how it is to be on the same level as mutants. Oh yes. I didn't de-power the villains. So now good luck with that." John said.
"You can't do this. The Supreme beings won't let you. You have tilted the balance." Strange said as he still couldn't believe he lost his magic too. He had memories of magic but he couldn't conjure magic. It was as if he lost access to all of magic powers.
After Strange said that all around them weapons started emerging from orange concentric gates.
"You don't get to talk balance with me, Strange. Definitely not you. I know more about balance than you can imagine. I am the Lord of Order. I come from a generation of beings who have advocated fighting Chaos. So don't come with your ignorance."
"But it isn't right. People like Doom, Thanos and others will come and cause havoc." Reed protested. That was all they could do now. Protest. They know that in fighting sense they have lost the power to confront John,
Since he said that he belonged to the Avengers, there must be a moral line for him. Reed wanted to exploit that.
"Innocents. Our universe is threatened by a being who is bigger than Galactus and your so called Supreme Beings have left us to die. The whole universe. They never cared about the innocents of our universe. Why would I care about the innocents of your universe? For all I care none of you are innocent. Just because a different kind of race lives with you, you all have chosen to discriminate. Now let me see how the people will handle the ugly ones. Aren't they so powerful while confronting mutants? Now let me see the power." John spoke at a stretch here. He didn't pull any punches while saying all of this.
"What? Your universe is threatened? By what? We can help you if you want. And after you have such immense power is there any power that can overpower you?" She-Hulk asked.
"I don't need your help when Strange here advocated the destruction of all. But that's a later story. For now I am off. Good luck with defending." John said as he wore his helmet and then vanished.
