Marvel: Rise of the Undead Monarch

In just a few moments, Johnny, using his speed, launched thousands of attacks.

Initially, Shaw's mutant ability allowed him to absorb much of the impact of Johnny's attacks, minimizing damage. However, as Johnny's onslaught intensified, even Shaw's mutant ability became overwhelmed and he suffered significant damage.

When Johnny ceased his assault, Shaw's body plummeted from the air, utterly transformed and battered beyond recognition.

Moreover, chaotic energy emitted from his body in tumultuous fluctuations. The accumulation of various energies had exceeded Shaw's limits.

Paralyzed on the ground, Shaw's eyes betrayed disbelief.

Even now, he couldn't comprehend how he ended up lying there, bruised and battered.

As Johnny's violent aura gradually subsided, he approached Shaw with a smile on his face.

Though Johnny's pace wasn't swift, each step made Shaw's body tremble with an inexplicable sense of impending doom.

Seeing the indifference in Johnny's eyes, Shaw realized he had no chance of survival, regardless of whether he begged for mercy.

With this realization, madness flickered in Shaw's eyes.

When pushed to their limits, people tend to resort to terrible measures. Pushing Johnny off balance was Shaw's current thought.

Terrible energy fluctuations suddenly surged from Shaw's body.

Completely relinquishing control, Shaw urged the chaotic energy within him to collide and escalate.

"No! Shaw is going to detonate the energy within his body!" Charles, on the fighter plane, was the first to realize Shaw's intent. His expression turned grave.

"Hank! Get out of this area quickly! Shaw's body is going to explode, and it will be no less powerful than a nuclear bomb!"

Charles shouted to Hank, who was piloting the fighter plane, his expression urgent.

Hearing Charles' warning, everyone's expressions changed drastically. The X-Men's fighter jet accelerated suddenly, pushing to its limit as it soared toward the distant sky.

Simultaneously, Charles used his abilities to communicate with the top brass of the US and Soviet warships, informing them of the impending emergency.

Despite being in the sea, the American and Soviet fleets sensed the terrible fluctuations in Shaw's body. The violent energy emanations caused widespread panic. Heeding Charles' warning, both fleets hastily accelerated toward the distant sea, not daring to face Shaw's imminent self-destruction.

As the X-Men's fighter planes and the US and Soviet warships made their hasty retreat, Johnny frowned. He hadn't anticipated Shaw's willingness to take everyone down with him.

"Hahaha... They can't run away, and you can't run away!" Shaw's energy grew increasingly violent, causing him unimaginable pain. His eyes, now crazed, locked onto Johnny as he slowly rose from the ground.

In his madness, Shaw didn't notice the trace of cold disdain in Johnny's eyes.

"Let's die together!" Shaw's body bulged ominously, on the verge of exploding. His eyes protruded, his pain and madness intertwining to create a terrifying visage.

The sound of a sharp weapon piercing flesh suddenly cut through the air.

Shaw's body, like a deflated rubber ball, shrank rapidly. His bulging torso and limbs contracted, and his eyes filled with fright and despair.

From Shaw's chest protruded the Spectre's sharp, long nails, piercing straight through and shattering his vitality.

"Shaw, you think too highly of yourself," Johnny's calm voice echoed in Shaw's fading consciousness.

Shaw's world plunged into a black abyss. His final moments were filled with doubt and unwillingness.

As Shaw was about to self-destruct, Johnny controlled the Spectre to strike a fatal blow, preventing any chance of Shaw's self-destruction.

"Spectre, don't waste it," Johnny remarked, smiling slightly as he observed the rapidly dissipating energy from Shaw's body.

As for the nuclear radiation escaping from Shaw's body, Johnny simply ignored it.

With the physique of a Titan, Johnny could easily withstand space's extreme conditions and deadly radiation, let alone nuclear radiation. Shaw's energy-rich body was a feast for the undead Spectre. Following Johnny's order, the Spectre devoured Shaw's energy without hesitation.

[Ding! Devour mutant, you can obtain the ability: energy absorption and transformation lv4. Convert devouring points, you will receive: 400 points!]

The system prompt echoed in Johnny's mind.

"400 devouring points... but I think I'll choose to acquire the ability," Johnny mused, feeling a tinge of regret but ultimately deciding to take Shaw's power.

Upon making his choice, a flood of information about the new ability filled Johnny's mind, bringing a smile to his face. Shaw's mutant power, even at level 4, had shown terrifying potential. In Shaw's hands, it was nearly invincible and had almost caused a catastrophe. With enough devouring points, Johnny knew he could transform this ability into an unparalleled magical skill.

"Why hasn't it exploded yet?"

As Johnny absorbed his new power, confusion spread among Charles and others in the US and Soviet fleets and fighter planes. Given the intense fluctuations on the beach earlier, Shaw should have detonated like a nuclear bomb, unleashing widespread destruction.

"No! I can't sense Shaw's presence! Shaw... is dead!" Charles exclaimed, his mental abilities picking up on the absence of Shaw's life force.

Although Shaw's helmet blocked deep mental intrusion, Charles could still sense life signs. Before Johnny acted, Shaw's life force had been palpable, but now, it was completely gone.

"What?!"

Charles' revelation shocked everyone on the fighter plane. They all trusted Charles' abilities, but his announcement seemed impossible. Shaw, who had been so powerful and poised to unleash devastation, was suddenly dead?

As everyone processed this, a single thought crystallized in their minds: Johnny. His god-like presence was the only explanation.

"Shaw is dead. The crisis is over. We can go back," Charles confirmed after another scan.

Meanwhile, the navies of the United States and the Soviet Union, using their telescopes, observed the beach's situation. Cheers erupted from the warships of both nations, celebrating the resolution of the crisis.
