A Bizarre Adventure Starting with One-Punch Man

As Johnson watched Gamora vanish into thin air amidst the orange glow of energy, he understood that the planet's magic circle had taken effect, acknowledging the genuine emotions between the two sacrificial parties.

Although it went through him as a middleman.

Looking further down, the corpse of the fallen Eternal Titan had vanished, and a clear, deep pool had replaced the hard ground at the bottom of the abyss, where a tempting body with green skin was slowly emerging from the water.

With a wave of his hand, Gamora's body detached from the water that symbolized the Sea of ​​Souls and slowly floated into the air.

During this process, her eyelids trembled, and she regained consciousness in a daze.

Before she could figure out what was happening, she felt someone pry open her fingers and take something from her palm.

"This is……"

Gamora gazed at the orange gem floating in Johnson's hand, as if she were seeing an ancient treasure passed down through the universe, and her mind was instantly captivated by it.

"This is the Soul Gem."

As Johnson spoke, a handsome young man in a purple suit stepped out of his body and raised his hand under the Red Skull's ghost-like gaze.

Rice tahini beans!

The Stand ability was activated, and the beautiful and translucent "Soul Gem" shone with an orange energy glow. In the end, it turned from real to illusory and was sealed into a bright golden fantasy card.

SSR, "Soul Gem", Get☆Daze!

[Fantasy Cards: Soul Gem]

Card Type: Item Card

Rarity: SSR

[Description: One of the six "Infinity Stones" in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU), obtained by Gamora through the sacrifice of her Titan father by the mysterious figure.]

【Effect 1: Soul Energy】

The Soul Gem can control an infinite amount of soul energy, creating a powerful, explosive energy shockwave.

【Effect 2: Soul Space】

The Soul Gem connects to a miniature universe, capable of setting rules according to the user's will and rewriting the boundary between reality and illusion.

【Effect 3: Soul Control】

The Soul Gem holds supreme authority over the soul, allowing it to steal, manipulate, and modify it, and even control the undead to serve the user.

【Effect 4: Soul Creation】

The Soul Gem can create souls out of thin air.

As expected of a Marvel cosmic artifact bearing the name "Infinity," ordinary people who only master the first effect, "Soul Energy," are basically invincible!

Johnson immersed his consciousness into the "Soul Gem" and examined it. A miniature universe that he could modify at will did exist, but there were no other superfluous entities.

Excellent, as expected of an MCU product, it's so worry-free.

As a native artifact of this timeline, the Soul Stone can still exert its original power in the MCU world, but once it leaves, it will turn into an ordinary colored stone.

Therefore, if Johnson wants to take away the infinite power of the "Infinity Stones," simply making them into cards won't work; he needs to find another way.

But that's a story for another time.

Right now, this "Soul Gem" still needs to be used to solve the snap problem in the main timeline, and Johnson will not embezzle it.

Gamora's mental cultivation was insufficient to see the Stand. Only after seeing the Soul Stone disappear into Johnson's hands did she regain her usual composure.

"You've gotten what you wanted, can you let me go now?"

"Ok?"

Johnson was taken aback, only then noticing that Gamora's body was still bound by the Adamantine Chains, her curves still prominent, and even the power of the Soul Stone had not released her from its control.

"Sorry, I forgot."

Gamora: "..."

With a snap of his fingers, Johnson released the "Diamond Lockdown," and Gamora's body immediately relaxed, landing with a gasp.

A large hand covered Gamora's shoulder, and her body tensed instinctively. Before she could retaliate, she heard the tall man beside her say, "How about this, I won't take yours for nothing. This is what you deserve."

"Potential Guidance Technique," activated!

Gamora was shocked to discover that her body had suddenly gained dozens of times more strength and energy than before. This allowed her to unleash the full potential of the superb assassination skills she had learned under Thanos's tutelage, as if she could truly...

Assassinate a god!

Johnson raised his finger to search for signs of life in the universe and quickly found an alien civilization that had already entered the interstellar age.

Sa——

Having teleported here with Gamora, whose power had greatly increased, Johnson glanced at the towering, technologically advanced city and said, "Thanos's forces have now been destroyed. With your current strength, you can do whatever you want."

Gamora opened her mouth, only to hear Johnson's last words before disappearing.

"Just treat it as a way to relax."

Chapter 367 The Ancient One Arrives Though Late

call--

Gamora raised an eyebrow slightly, seemingly touched.

She lifted her foot and strode towards the city before her.

……

Earth, New York.

After settling Gamora in, Johnson used an Adrenaline teleportation to return to Earth.

Not long after I arrived, I saw the entire 2012 Avengers on the top floor of Stark Tower, along with the God of Mischief lying on a stretcher, shivering.

Having taken two full-power Hulk-level attacks in a row, even the Frost Giant royal's physique was struggling to withstand it, let alone cause any trouble.

Thor 2012, preoccupied with his sister Loki, was in a hurry to take him back to Asgard for treatment. He even abandoned the Tesseract, which had been lost from his father's vault, and instead summoned his driver Heimdall to lower the Rainbow Bridge and teleport them away.

Soon after, the two artifacts, the "Mind Scepter" and the "Cosmic Cube," were taken away by S.H.I.E.L.D., who came to hand them over.

At this moment, Tony and Captain America from the main timeline, who had been patiently waiting, finally began to act.

"Hey buddy, didn't you just say we were going to take a shower together?" In the corridor, Tony Stark, disguised as a field agent, raised an eyebrow at the gay man who was eyeing his body. Even through his tactical goggles, he made the Hydra field agent dizzy with desire. "Why not now? Let's go now, what do you think?"

"Really?" The guy's eyes lit up, but he still glanced at the box he was carrying with practiced ease. "But this is an important item that Chief Pierce personally instructed us to escort. How about we deliver it first and then... ugh!!"

After rounding a corner, Tony decisively removed his disguise, donned the MK85 armor in a second, and then…

The strongman locked the man up and strangled that bastard until he passed out.

"Bushett! This is the most disgusting mission I've ever carried out, bar none!" Tony cursed as he picked up the briefcase containing the "Cosmic Cube," complaining angrily into his headset. "Captain, you heard that, it's not that I wanted to swear, he disgusted me first!"

"Oh, right, you mentioned that before we came!"

team leader:"……"

He smirked, ignoring Tony's incessant chatter, and pressed the down button on the elevator.

The elevator descending from the top floor stopped at the captain's floor. The doors opened, revealing a group of well-trained S.H.I.E.L.D... no, Hydra agents. Except for Crossbones Rumlow, who had the best mental fortitude, the rest couldn't help but freeze.

“Hey, Captain,” Rumlow greeted the captain as he squeezed into the elevator, “Weren’t you going to direct the rescue?”

“Yes, Rumlow,” the captain nodded calmly, “we were going to go, but the plans have changed.”

After the two finished speaking, the atmosphere in the elevator became even more tense.

The captain glanced at the group of Hydra agents who were secretly reaching for their weapons at their waists, and then began his performance.

The CEO's private office on the top floor of Stark Tower.

Johnson sipped Tony's treasured wine, munched on his own sunflower seeds, and watched the live broadcast in the elevator through "HeartNet".

Crossbones (touching his weapon): ...Sorry, Captain, I can't give you the scepter! (touching his weapon!)

Bald Sitwell agent (with a forced smile): I need to make a call and confirm with the director…

“No problem, trust me.” The captain calmly called to the bald agent, gesturing for him to come closer, “Hail Hydra!”

(?_?)?)

The Hydra members: "..."

(─?─||)

In the end, thanks to Oscar's acting skills, the captain successfully obtained the "Scepter of the Mind" for free, and ran away with the custom-made case.

"The scenes of the underworld are truly captivating, they're just so funny! They're hilarious!" On the top floor of the building, Johnson laughed so hard he slapped his thigh repeatedly. "Don't you think so? The greatest Sorcerer Supreme of all time?"

The Ancient One, who had appeared behind Johnson without anyone noticing: "..."

As the saying goes, "a sedan chair is carried by people," and seeing that Qiao Sen was so sensible and didn't seem like the kind of dimensional demon god who liked to fight at the slightest disagreement, her originally serious expression softened considerably.

“A strong person with neither past nor future should not be here.”

"Yes, I'm just a passing-by war god from the Qiao family. I'll leave as soon as I'm done and promise not to stay for even a second longer."
