Chapter 949 The moral bottom line of wanting to change the world is still too high
"But what I didn't expect was that Ancient One actually predicted my arrival."
"It seems that you are not as powerful as I thought."
Thanos was not surprised that there was no one here, he had thought of this before coming.
After all, the Supreme Mage Ancient One is still alive.
If it were the original him, he would never choose to come to the earth at this point in time; but now, he no longer needs to be afraid of a mere supreme mage.
Even if this Supreme Mage is the Ancient One.
He was just thinking about whether Ancient One's time gem could predict his arrival because of the system he carried after traveling through time as Thanos; after all, according to the stories he saw before traveling through time, as a time traveler and possessing a system, he
It is an anomaly that cannot be observed by the Time Stone.
Now it seems that the identity of the time traveler and the power of the system are not as powerful as he imagined.
"Ding, the system reminds the host that the power of the time gem cannot predict the host's future."
It seemed that he heard Thanos' words. The system hidden in his body spoke in his ears with a mechanical and cold voice.
"Under the protection of the system, there is no power related to time, fate, cause and effect, etc. that can affect the host."
"Well..."
Thanos nodded, his eyes not wavering at all, but his inner evaluation of the system was even higher.
Being able to say such words with such certainty, even if it is bragging, the power possessed by this system is definitely beyond this world.
But, if it’s not because of the time gem, then what’s the reason for their disappearance?
Thanos thought for a while and then shook his head. He already had some guesses in his mind, but without the Time Stone, he couldn't be sure that his guesses were true.
What's more, whether he observed it or not, it didn't have much impact on him.
He will take away the Infinity Stones that exist on Earth. No one, not the Ancient One or the Avengers, can stop him.
He clenched his fist slightly and looked at the power gem emitting a faint purple light on the Infinity Gauntlet on his left hand, as well as the unimaginable power contained in his body, with a slight smile on his lips.
Of course, he is not so confident because he possesses the Power Stone, one of the Infinity Stones. The Power Stone alone is not enough to allow him to face the Ancient One who is the Sorcerer Supreme and possesses the Time Stone.
Even if he is used as a power bank by Ancient One, Dormammu may not be able to defeat him.
What he relies on is the power from a work in his previous life that he got from the system.
【Saita·Limiter (Broken)】
In the world called "One Punch Man", each creature has limits that cannot be eliminated no matter how much effort is put in due to differences between species and individuals.
The purpose of this limit is to allow various creatures to grow without losing their survival awareness and rationality. This growth limit is called a limiter.
Even the S-class heroes in that world are born with talents that are unimaginable to ordinary people and even weirdos, and can easily reach the point where ordinary people cannot pursue them. They also have such a limiter.
It's just that compared to ordinary people, their limiters are larger, and the limits they can allow are higher.
Due to various external factors, such as desire, environment, or body transformation, human beings have become weirdos that are different from humans. Their limiters will also be expanded, or in other words, they will be targeted at those who have changed their species.
A new limiter has been set.
In that world, only one person truly broke the limiter and successfully lifted the shackles the world had placed on them.
His name is Saitama.
This is where the broken limiter obtained by Thanos comes from.
However, what makes him regretful is that he did not obtain this power in a human body, but in the body of Thanos' Titan.
Saitama's power to break his own limiter was not enough to break the shackles of Thanos' Titan body; even with the help of the system, he only broke half of it.
But even if it is half, he now has a self that is not inferior to the one who originally planned to collect six infinity stones in the future.
But this power is only reflected in his physique and strength.
Of course, this is a pity and also a blessing.
Because only half of the shackles were broken, Thanos's emotions were not half as diluted as Saitama's, and his wisdom may have been reduced, but that was just because his soul was not that of Thanos, but an ordinary person in his previous life.
After just one year's travel, he still couldn't see things from Thanos' perspective, nor did he inherit Thanos' wisdom; it was not because of the limiter.
As for hair... Thanos has no such thing.
With such power, there is actually no need for him to come to Earth again. After all, he is not the Thanos of the past, and he has no pursuit of randomly destroying half of all life in the universe for the sake of the reproduction of the universe.
The power of the Infinity Stones is a temptation for him, but it is not something he must obtain.
He has a system and does not need to be too interested in anything, because one day he will get what he wants.
He doesn't need to do anything, he just needs to let time pass by as usual. After ten years, he believes that there will no longer be any existence above him in this world.
If so, why did he come?
Come to this earth when the ancient master is still alive?
Participate in the plot? Infinity stones? Or reintegrate into human society?
No matter which one it is, it seems that there is no need for him to come to Earth at this point in time.
He can wait until the death of the Ancient One, wait until Hela and Surtur retreat, wait until the dark elves are over... wait until the earth no longer poses any threat to him, then come here and harvest everything just like himself in the original future.
.
By that time, having broken the limiter, he must already possess power far beyond what he has now, enough to face any threat.
"The Marvel Universe does not tolerate limiter breakers."
"He is repairing my broken chains."
"And the power of the Infinity Stones can inhibit the Marvel Universe from repairing the shackles, and even help me break the remaining shackles."
Thanos looked at the power gem emitting purple light in his hand, and the original scene appeared in his mind.
After the limiter was broken in half at the beginning, his strength was improving at a speed visible to the naked eye every day. The next day he could easily defeat him the day before.
That is an astonishing improvement that cannot be described in words. It is a nihilistic fantasy that any powerful person in the universe dreams of but cannot realize.
He seemed to be standing on a flat and wide road without any obstacles. He didn't even need to take the initiative to walk, there would be a force pushing him forward.
