Ebony Maw hesitated for a mont before speaking, "Not long ago, there was news that seven Celestials had descended upon Earth..."
Hearing this, Thanos' doubts were imdiately put to rest. His eyes lit up with interest as he asked, "Were these Celestials after ssiah?"
"Is ssiah dead?"
As he spoke, a look of anticipation appeared on his face.
Every Celestial was a true god, possessing power far beyond that of re mortals!
Facing seven of these beings, ssiah was undoubtedly dood!
Just as this thought ford in his mind, Ebony Maw shook his head and said, "My lord, the Celestials did not find ssiah, so they directly confronted White Cloak."
Upon hearing this, Thanos' expression changed, and he asked gravely, "White Cloak is dead? Were the Infinity Stones taken by the Celestials?"
That would be truly bad news...
As Thanos frowned, Ebony Maw uttered sothing that left him utterly shocked.
"My lord, no, White Cloak is not dead. Instead, three of the Celestials were killed by him."
As Ebony Maw recounted how White Cloak had deconstructed everything within thousands of kiloters and erased both a black hole and three Celestials, even Thanos couldn't help but be stunned.
This was real?
White Cloak was already difficult to deal with, and now he had beco even stronger?
For the first ti, Thanos began to question everything. He even suspected that Ebony Maw was lying to him.
A re Earthling had killed three Celestials...
No matter how he thought about it, it seed impossible.
His expression grew solemn.
eting Eternity... must be accelerated!
Thinking back to when Stormbreaker and the Infinity Gauntlet were taken from him, Thanos felt a surge of unwillingness.
This setback had made his eting with Eternity significantly more complicated.
If not for his alternative plans...
While Thanos was lost in thought, news of Earth's events began to spread across the universe.
...
The Wastelands
Hearing the news from Earth, the Collector, Tivan, was left utterly dumbfounded.
ssiah was already comparable to a Celestial—fine. But now, White Cloak had appeared, and he was even more terrifying, directly killing three Celestials?
Most shocking of all, Tivan actually knew this White Cloak!
Recalling the mont when White Cloak had descended upon the Wastelands and seized the Power Stone, Tivan found it unbelievable that White Cloak possessed such strength!
The more he thought about it, the more he doubted reality itself. Maybe he hadn't slept well and was still dreaming—how else could such absurd news be possible?
...
Another Galaxy
Star-Lord and his team had also heard the news.
"That's gotta be fake, right?"
"The news from Earth is getting more and more ridiculous," Star-Lord said, his mouth hanging open.
At this mont, Rocket was busy operating a high-tech console, analyzing the source of the information to determine its authenticity.
A short while later, he stopped and hesitated before saying, "Quill... this news doesn't seem fake..."
Hearing this, Star-Lord's eyes widened in disbelief.
This absurd story... was real?!
First, ssiah. Now, White Cloak?
At the sa ti, various factions across the universe were abuzz with discussion.
"How could a backwater planet like Earth produce such powerful beings?"
Many were left questioning reality itself. So were in shock, while others couldn't help but feel an urge to visit Earth to see the truth with their own eyes.

Earth's Orbit
[Ability: Avatar of Light (460/500) Level 2]
"Almost there... I'm about to level up again."
Floating in space, Syd's eyes glead with anticipation.
As he patiently awaited the upgrade of his Avatar of Light ability, an event was unfolding in a dimly lit alley in New York City.
A rectangular, pale-yellow portal suddenly materialized.
Then, twelve people stepped out of the glowing gateway.
They were clad in black uniforms, their heads covered by black helts. Among them were both Black and white individuals. The mont they stepped through the portal, they cautiously scanned their surroundings.
The leader, a tall, middle-aged Black woman, spoke in a wary tone, "So this is the place where the tiline deviation occurred?"
The other eleven mbers imdiately started whispering among themselves.
"What happened here? Why is there an anomaly?"
"What caused it?"
"Is there a ti criminal involved?"
Had the tiline not been disturbed, creating nurous branching tilines, they might never have traced the anomaly back to this location!
Even now, they hadn't been able to determine who was responsible for the temporal disturbance.
With no other options, the Ti Variance Authority (TVA) had to send them to investigate.
Typically, resolving tiline anomalies required only a four-person squad. However, due to the strangeness of this case, the TVA had dispatched all twelve of them.
According to the legends within the TVA...
Long ago, a great multiversal war erupted. Countless tilines clashed, vying for dominance, and the conflict nearly led to total destruction.
It was at this mont that three omniscient and omnipotent Ti Keepers erged!
They rged all tilines into a single Sacred Tiline, restoring peace.
The Ti Keepers safeguarded existence itself, ensuring the proper flow of ti according to the Sacred Tiline.
But occasionally, anomalies would arise—people who deviated from the Sacred Tiline. Even the smallest changes, such as being late for work or purchasing an extra item, could create unpredictable consequences.
These individuals were variants, ti criminals.
No matter the cause, deviating from the Sacred Tiline was a cri, leading to the birth of branching tilines. If not corrected, such disruptions could spiral into chaos, potentially igniting another multiversal war.
To prevent this, the Ti Keepers created the Ti Variance Authority. Whenever the TVA detected an anomaly, they would dispatch enforcers to intervene and restore order.
Their main objective today was to locate and either capture or eliminate the ti criminal responsible, restoring the tiline to its proper course.
The leader of the team pulled out a device, intending to scan the internet for any unusual events.
And the mont she did—
"Oh my god, what is this?!"
Her eyes widened in shock, and she gasped aloud.
"What is it?"
The other agents turned toward her in confusion.
"You all need to see this," she said, still in disbelief.
The other eleven mbers quickly pulled out their own devices and started searching for news.
One by one, their faces mirrored her astonishnt.
The headlines flashing before their eyes focused on two nas—
ssiah?
White Cloak?
"Who the hell are these two?"
