From start to finish, Ivan's footsteps towards Eric never ceased. Not even shock waves or beast attacks could inflict the slightest impact.

Faced with Ivan, an opponent beyond imagination, Eric could only persistently deploy metal barriers to marginally impede Ivan's advance. It was merely a delaying tactic.

As Ivan unleashed his full force, Charles, Mystique, and Moira, who had been concealed in the wreckage of the plane, could no longer remain passive. They emerged and joined the confrontation.

Moira, wielding a pistol, took the initiative. Despite encountering Ivan in the Hellfire Club during the spring breeze, where Ivan had disguised himself with nano-robots, Moira remained vigilant and did not leave Eric.

A series of relentless gunshots rang out, showcasing Moira's fundamental skills as a special agent—unhesitant and ruthless when required to take lives. Although bullets wouldn't harm Ivan, who was shielding himself with Shaw's body, Moira discerned Ivan's protective stance and targeted Shaw Shaw, invoking her special agent instincts to complete the mission.

This revelation angered Ivan, who had initially sought a peaceful resolution. However, Moira's ignorance compelled Ivan to reconsider, and he decided to impart a lesson.

Holding Shaw's body, Ivan extended his right hand into his sleeve, pointing at Shaw's body within. A mysterious occurrence unfolded as Shaw's body, seemingly drawn by an invisible force, vanished into Ivan's sleeve without altering in size. This magical feat resulted from pockets in Ivan's sleeves enchanted with a traceless extension spell, which once earned him the nickname "Man with a universe in his sleeves".

After stowing away the corpse, Ivan felt unburdened.

Observing Ivan's additional abilities, Eric was exasperated. How many powers did this opponent possess, making life nearly unbearable? The others, aside from the informed Red Devil, were equally astonished.

Moira, now armed with an iron magazine, continued her assault. Ivan effortlessly caught a bullet and, with a flick of his finger, redirected it at a swifter pace.

"Ah!" Moira crumpled to the ground, clutching her wounded shoulder. The casually deflected bullet from Ivan had found its mark.

"Moira!" Charles, who harbored deep feelings for the agent, erupted emotionally at seeing his beloved injured. He unleashed his telepathic abilities, delving into Ivan's mind.

Ivan, detecting Charles' intrusion, snorted coldly, concentrating his mental power into a cone and thrusting it in the opposite direction.

Boom! Charles felt a piercing pain in his brain, spewing out blood. This agony surpassed even the trauma from Shaw's previous encounter with a black hole.

"Mystique, help him"

Mystique Raven supported Charles and inquired with genuine concern.

After a moment, Charles regained some mental composure, realizing the magnitude of his losses—first Shaw, then Ivan.

While Charles' attack momentarily stalled Ivan, he resumed his relentless pursuit of Eric. The shockwaves and beasts, understanding Ivan's objective, collaborated with Eric's controlled metal to desperately impede him, but each attempt was effortlessly thwarted by Ivan.

In this chaotic sequence, Ivan reached Eric, seizing his neck and lifting him. "Do you truly believe you overcame him with your strength? He has groomed you as a successor, showing mercy at every turn. Otherwise..."

Mid-sentence, a piece of metal shot from Eric's hand, attempting to replicate the tactics used on Shaw. However, to Eric's dismay, the metal halted just five centimeters from Ivan's mouth, defying any attempts to push it forward.

"The same method can only be used once. Do you think I will still be tricked?" Ivan grabbed Eric and fell to the ground, then rubbed on the ground.

"Stop, Ivan Shaw, we haven't decided the winner yet. Come to me if you have the ability."

Just as Ivan was playing happily, Wonder Woman's voice came from a distance. When he turned to look, he saw Wonder Woman's graceful figure rushing towards him. Although she had been defeated by Ivan before, her injuries were not minor. However, the divine body quickly recovered, with only slightly messy hair as evidence of the recent battle.

When Wonder Woman saw Ivan suddenly leave, she guessed what was happening on other battlefields. She rushed over to the submarine due to the pain in her body. The distance was a bit far, taking some time. Meanwhile, her injuries were more than half healed.

Upon arriving at the scene, Wonder Woman saw Ivan grabbing someone's neck from a distance, thinking that Ivan was about to kill someone. In a way, this side attracted Ivan and saved her. With Wonder Woman's temperament, she wouldn't let the person who helped save her die, so she shouted in a hurry.

Ivan knocked Eric away with the last blow and turned to face Wonder Woman. He couldn't be careless with this formidable woman, a descendant of a god. Who knows what hidden abilities her godly parent left for her?

This time, Wonder Woman didn't use her shield and sword to attack. Instead, she directly used the Word Spirit's lock cover, swinging it hard to wrap it around Ivan.

Ivan grabbed the rope, and the two began to compete again. However, Wonder Woman already knew that she alone wasn't Ivan's match. So, after forming a competitive situation, she immediately shouted, "Everyone, shoot together and concentrate your strength to defeat him."

The Havok reacted the fastest, shooting a red light wave from the chest device at Ivan. Unlike the previous light wave, this one didn't stop after one strike; it was sustained, even if Ivan inhaled it into her body.

The Beast, originally good at melee combat without long-range attack abilities, had his way. Soundwave rushed over, opened his mouth, and emitted a scream with concentrated power capable of tearing space.

Eric, who finally recovered, joined the fray. With a wave of his hand, the metal that had fallen on the ground dispersed. This time, he became a bit smarter.

Being besieged by so many people, Ivan felt the pressure and exerted her abilities to the limit, resisting the combined attack of everyone.

When Red Devil saw this situation, he initially wanted to help, but Ivan secretly transmitted his voice, explaining that Red Devil should not interfere. Ivan wanted to solve the enemy himself.

Red Devil had no choice but to give up, seizing the opportunity to come to the torrent pressed under the iron sheet, rescued him, and then teleported to the Angel's side. The three of them converged.

"Drink"

Ivan felt that he had absorbed enough strength. He grabbed the rope with both palms and pulled hard. Wonder Woman's body was thrown up by him, colliding with Eric, and the two rolled into a ball.

Without Eric's control, the metal covering Ivan fell to the ground. He grabbed three pieces of metal and threw them out with a skillful hand, hitting the Havok, Soundwave, and the Beast. The three vomited blood and fell to the ground.

At this point, except for Mystique Raven, everyone on the X-Men side was seriously injured. Mystique wanted to help, but she couldn't do much in combat with her abilities.

Looking at the figure resembling both an angel and a demon, walking step by step, a sense of despair rose in the hearts of the soldiers. Even the courage to continue fighting disappeared. Only Wonder Woman still did not give up, standing up and rushing towards Ivan again.

Ivan grew impatient with Wonder Woman. He stretched out his hand and snorted softly, "Hundred times gravity"

Suddenly, Wonder Woman felt as if a mountain had been pressed against her body, and she was pressed to the ground, unable to stand up again.

Now, Ivan could be said to have won a significant victory. All the enemies had been defeated, and the anger in his heart had almost been vented. He was ready to end this farce. However, at this moment, another change occurred.

Eric suddenly sensed something, his face showing a hint of joy. He turned his head to look at the sea, and Ivan also noticed Eric's expression, following his gaze. What caught his eye was a dense swarm of missiles flying over.

It turned out that the fleets of the United States and the Soviet Union had been observing the war on the seashore. After reporting the situation to their respective governments, both governments, after discussions, believed that the mutants posed a threat to the world's security. They decided to take advantage of this situation to wipe them all out and simultaneously launched missiles.

The X-Men were fighting on the world stage to protect global safety, while humans were attacking from behind. If it were the usual Eric, he would undoubtedly be furious and seek revenge on humans. But now, he was very excited because this gave him a chance, a chance to defeat Ivan.

Eric stretched out his right hand and spread his five fingers, and the flying missiles stopped in the air. Slowly, they changed direction and shot toward Ivan.

"Boom, boom, boom"

When the first missile arrived, Ivan stretched out his hand to block it, and it exploded with a bang, completely engulfing Ivan. But it wasn't over yet.
