I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.

Chapter 558 Regardless of Reality or Fantasy

Chapter 558 Regardless of Reality or Fantasy
Thor was first taken to the past by Doom, and then to the present, where he fought alongside Doom against Kang. So what were Peter and his new Fantastic Four doing during this time?

We're waiting for information from Gwen's side.

Peter has discovered another way to counter Kang's manipulation of reality: foresight—a method also used by a large group of sorcerers, including Strange, to combat Kang's reality-altering abilities. If you can know in advance how Kang will transform the world, you won't be affected by the Cosmic Cube's power.

If Strange hadn't mentioned it to him, he really wouldn't have known that he could steal chickens like this.

"The ominous sign was instantly eliminated, and Doom and Zemo came on... Oh, Zemo was instantly eliminated."

Feeling as if he'd forgotten something, Peter and the rest of the new Fantastic Four watched the battle unfold, waiting for an opportunity to move on. Doom appeared to be the most likely to defeat Kang, and his partnership with Thor was indeed the most probable one to achieve a breakthrough.

Of course, that's not their only reason for slacking off. In fact, there's another reason Peter is slacking off here that Kang doesn't know: the more a Cosmic Cube is used, the faster it awakens. The Skrulls may have taken decades to awaken the Cosmic Cube in their hands.

However, Kang is now infinitely absorbing the power of the Cosmic Cube and spreading it to all known timelines, extensively modifying the past. This is essentially doing in an instant what others have done in decades. Peter doesn't even need to think about it to know that the Cosmic Cube, which is constantly modifying reality, is growing rapidly and becoming the Kovacs he knows.

No wonder Kovac doesn't seem very bright; this Cosmic Cube consciousness he created looks like a premature baby...

Peter, who hadn't been paying attention, suddenly saw Gwen swing in through the window. Only then did he remember what he had asked Gwen to do. Of course, he didn't really think Gwen could steal the Time Stone, since she couldn't fly.

So he was going to say a few words of comfort to Gwen, but to his surprise, Gwen handed him a glass cube first: "It fell from the sky. I saw that it wasn't broken, so I brought this thing back. Will it work?"

"I'm not entirely sure..."

Peter knew exactly what this thing was. Zemo had used it to fight against Kang for a while, but Zemo couldn't resist the power of the Time Stone and ended up as a skeleton.

This item would actually be best given to Doom or Strange to maximize its effectiveness, or perhaps...

"If we can fine-tune this, could we cover a certain range to awaken them, or prevent them from being interfered with by the energy of the Cosmic Cube?"

Peter held up the empty shell and asked Banner on the other side. Banner took the cube somewhat uncertainly and then performed a spectral analysis.

“It does emit some gamma rays, but not very strong. I'm analyzing it in conjunction with Reed's previous research data on the Cosmic Cube. Protecting one person like Zemo might not be a big problem, but if you need to use it on everyone, at least we can't do that.”

After a brief analysis, Banner concluded: "If you really intend to use the Cosmic Cube to create a team that won't be affected by Kang, you either have to distribute one to everyone, or you can guarantee that it will still function properly after being dismantled."

Peter sighed helplessly, then looked at Johnny Blazer, who nodded: "I'm ready."

“Okay, let’s go to Avengers Tower and assemble the team.” Peter and the others devised a high-risk plan to counter Kang’s reality manipulation. This plan stemmed from Ghost Rider’s characteristics. Although Johnny himself could be affected by the Cosmic Cube, he could avoid this influence once he became Ghost Rider. This was most likely because the Cosmic Cube couldn’t yet modify Hell.

However, if Johnny could distribute the Hellfire to everyone, then it could be guaranteed that no one who received the Hellfire would have their memories erased by the Cosmic Cube.

The only problem is Mephisto. Did Mephisto already know this and intend to use it to corrupt the heroes somewhere? Strange said he could help investigate, but the other party is Mephisto, and nobody knows if there are other issues involved.

Aside from Peter Parker himself.

Peter was quite certain of the plan, because if he remembered correctly, the vengeful spirit within Johnny was neither an angel nor Mephisto's devil, but a separate demon that Mephisto could not control. It was precisely because of this that Johnny was special; he was an unorthodox Ghost Rider, and an unorthodox vengeful spirit resided within him.

Besides, they didn't have any better options.

"And remember, whatever you do, don't burn Tony Stark."

"I promise."

Johnny, now enraged, and Banner, now the Hulk, followed Peter into the door Peter opened with the slingshot. Logan was already there. Strange and the Avengers explained Peter's plan, but Tony and the others hesitated after hearing it.

Meanwhile, the remaining X-Men, the new mutants, the Helllion team, and S.H.I.E.L.D.'s Thunderbolts all gathered at this location. Tony wasn't surprised by Fury's betrayal, but he still felt resistant to this plan, which currently left him with little choice.

“We still have time. Thor is back, we have so many men, and Doom is still fighting out there. Perhaps we can find a way…”

“There’s no other way, Stark,” Fury retorted to Tony. “If you’re not willing to make a deal with the devil, then Kang can wipe us out in an instant.”

“Actually, we might have a way, but we don’t have time.” Peter handed the cube to Tony, who frowned. Just as Spider-Man said, they might be able to do something with the cube, but only if someone bought them enough time.

But who is left now?
"Don't be afraid to sacrifice, soldiers."

An elderly man, still quite robust, walked into the portal, shield in hand. The nearly 90-year-old Captain America looked at Tony and gave the order: "If we are willing to give our lives for the cause of freedom and justice, then there is nothing to fear."

"Now, Tony, how long do the scientists need to work on this cube?"

 I felt out of sorts while writing.
