In the water, Kevin's control over the flow became much greater.
At this moment, the water transformed into a torrential downpour, falling on everyone, making it even easier for Kevin to use the rainwater to deal with enemies.
Here, every drop of rain that fell, every drop of water that remained on a person, became Kevin's weapon.
Especially those robots.
Their outer waterproofing might be good, but their internal waterproofing measures shouldn't be very effective.
With just a wave of Kevin's hand, raindrops inverted and invaded the bodies of those Ultron robots, destroying their circuits from within.
In no more than two seconds, the Ultron robots corroded by Kevin's rainwater sparked and collapsed to the ground.
"Kevin! Why didn't you use this ability earlier?"
Star-Lord, who had been fighting robots with the Avengers for a long time, saw that he had painstakingly killed a large number of robots, yet Kevin had killed more with a single move. His mindset instantly exploded, and he questioned Kevin in the sky.
"No time… and why are you angry?"
Kevin replied casually, confused by Star-Lord's anger.
Rocket answered his question:
"Hahaha, because we were competing to see who killed more robots! And before you killed those guys, his score was almost going to surpass mine!"
"Not almost! It already surpassed!"
"No, no, no, you using the Celestial's power doesn't count."
"That's my own power, why wouldn't it count?!"
"It doesn't count because it doesn't count. The right to explain is with Rocket."
Star-Lord and Rocket entered their usual bickering session.
Iron Man Tony descended from the sky, opened his mask, and looked over:
"That little raccoon over there, and… whatever you're called, can you two please not argue while fighting?"
"Don't! Call me! Raccoon!!"
"Hey, I'm not called 'whatever you're called,' are you Earth's Guardians of the Galaxy that rude?"
Tony's interruption made Star-Lord and Rocket unite their arguments against him.
Seeing that they were about to start arguing, Kevin used a portal to descend from the sky and arrived beside everyone.
"Alright, Rocket, Peter, now is not the time to argue… Iron Man, are your methods for dealing with Ultron ready?"
Kevin inquired about the methods the Avengers had prepared.
If he remembered correctly, before he left the Avengers World, he had told Tony and them to prepare methods to deal with Ultron.
Now that they dared to fight Ultron, that method should have been completed, right?
Tony did not answer Kevin's question.
He looked up at Ultron in the sky, remaining silent for a long time.
It wasn't until Captain America walked to his side and called out to him that he reacted.
"Tony."
"Alright, alright, I know, now is not the time to hesitate…"
Tony seemed to still have some hope for Ultron; he seemed not to have given up his dream of protecting Earth.
But by now, even the most dream-prone person's dream should have awakened.
Ultron was not the Earth protector Tony wanted. He had already brought too much trouble to everyone. If he didn't harden his heart and destroy him now...
Then if Ultron left and gathered the Infinity Stones to destroy the entire universe, Tony would have to bear full responsibility.
And by then, even responsibility would be meaningless.
After all, no one would exist.
After a psychological struggle, Tony took out a specially made arrow and handed it to Kevin:
"If you can find a way to approach him and control him, then as long as you insert this arrow into his body, he probably won't move anymore."
Kevin took the arrow and examined it.
This was a metal arrow slightly thicker than a normal arrow.
There was a golden groove in the middle of the arrow, with golden energy gathered in the center of the groove.
Among these golden energies, Kevin saw data streams flashing through.
"Is this… a virus?"
After checking, Kevin asked Tony.
Tony shook his head:
"This is Jarvis… an artificial intelligence I created. Of course, this is just a backup. Jarvis will help you contend for Ultron's core control and eliminate him."
"Then are you sure he won't become a second Ultron?"
Kevin asked again.
He remembered that in the first season of what if, Ultron was also eliminated by the Multiverse Guardian team in a similar way.
However, the data that originally eliminated Ultron was not Jarvis, but Dr. Zola, the Hydra scientist who became an artificial intelligence.
After Zola gained control of Infinity Ultron's body, he did not bring peace to the world. Instead, he wanted to use Ultron's body to achieve his own ambitions.
If it weren't for Black Panther also wanting to contend for the Infinity Stones, and the two fought again, eventually being sealed in a small universe by Dark Strange, then after Infinity Ultron, everyone would probably have to face Infinity Zola.
Kevin now had similar concerns.
Although Jarvis was the original form of Vision, if Jarvis gained control of Ultron's body, the possibility of Ultron transforming into Vision would be greater.
But this was what if, and who knew if the new Vision, with its core AI changed from Ultron to Jarvis, would still be the Vision from the main universe?
Kevin didn't want to go through a lot of trouble only to end up replacing one old Boss with a new Boss.
"Don't worry." Tony answered Kevin's doubt: "This backup of Jarvis, after gaining control, has only one instruction, and that is self-destruct."
"Very good."
With Tony saying that, Kevin finally felt relieved.
He put away the arrow Tony handed him and looked up at Ultron in the sky.
Since Kevin, the Avengers, and the Guardians of the Galaxy had converged, Ultron had been held in check by Carol.
The two once again began a simple, unadorned exchange of punches.
However, even though Ultron was fighting Carol, Kevin had a bad feeling, perhaps due to the 'Deep Sea Heart'.
To prevent his ominous premonition from coming true, Kevin took the arrow and prepared to fly up to support Carol.
But at this moment, Ultron, who was above, suddenly spoke:
"Honestly, I'm getting tired of this game of fighting you all."
"Oh? Then I wonder who was being tossed around like a ball by us just now."
Carol scoffed.
Ultron ignored her and looked down at the Avengers and the Guardians of the Galaxy.
"Since you all want to fight so much, then you can fight among yourselves."
Carol hadn't yet understood what Ultron meant.
But Kevin saw the mind stone light up in the center of Ultron's forehead.
The moment he noticed the mind stone light up, Kevin knew something was terribly wrong.
He didn't have time to speak or warn; he immediately created portals beneath the feet of the closest individuals, sending them to the other side of this planet.
Star-Lord, Rocket, Captain America, and Iron Man, along with Hulk Banner, who Kevin incidentally took care of, five people fell into the portals Kevin created and disappeared from the battlefield.
And it was the very next moment after Kevin teleported these few away that Ultron's Mind Light enveloped the entire battlefield.
A yellow glow appeared in the eyes of everyone except Kevin, Carol, and Scarlet Witch Wanda.
...It's over."
Kevin, who only managed to teleport away those closest to him, knew something was terribly wrong when he saw a yellow glow flash even in Thor's eyes.
Although he had suspected something was amiss just now and, in a moment of quick thinking, teleported away the Hulk, who was easiest to control, he had forgotten about Thor.
Even though Thor was an Asgardian god, he had almost no resistance to mental abilities.
Even a not-so-powerful telepath like Scarlet Witch could create illusions for Thor, let alone the mind stone.
"How are they…"
Carol also noticed something was wrong, because she observed that everyone except Kevin and Wanda looked at her with murderous intent.
Especially Thor; he was already swinging his Mjolnir, targeting Carol, who had the strongest combat power here.
Seeing the situation rapidly deteriorate, Kevin directly interrupted Carol's question and spoke very quickly:
"They're controlled by the mind stone! Damn it, Thor is yours to deal with, everyone else…"
Kevin paused here and looked at Wanda:
"Your name is Wanda… right? Can you handle them?"
"I… I can only try my best, after all, Pietro…"
Wanda, who was still only a teenager at this point, hesitated as she replied to Kevin.
Quicksilver Pietro, the fastest man in the Marvel World, was also affected by the Mind Light.
Unlike Scarlet Witch, whose powers appear to be superpowers but are actually Chaos Magic, Quicksilver Pietro in the cinematic universe's setting should be the purest form of superpower.
It was a mutant ability activated by the power of the mind stone.
Therefore, he could not resist the erosion of the Mind Light and became a puppet under the control of the mind stone.
The remaining members of the Avengers, including Quicksilver, as well as the Guardians of the Galaxy members not teleported away by Kevin—Groot, Gamora, Drax, and Yondu—had now become enemies Kevin and his allies needed to face.
Kevin had to deal with Ultron, and Carol had to handle Thor.
Everyone else could only be left to the Scarlet Witch.
Kevin chose to trust her.
And now, he could only trust her.
"It's alright." Kevin smiled at her, "Just hold them off for a bit, I'll be done very soon."
After speaking, water jets erupted from Kevin's feet, propelling him straight into the sky.
During this time, the controlled Avengers and Guardians of the Galaxy members all tried to stop Kevin.
But Thor was entangled by Carol, and the remaining individuals were all blocked on the ground by Wanda.
Whether it was Yondu's Yaka Arrow, Hawkeye's arrows, or Groot the tree-man's branches extending towards Kevin, all were blocked by Wanda's abilities.
No matter what, Scarlet Witch was one of the most absurd beings in the Marvel Universe. Even though Wanda was still young, she could temporarily suppress these Superheroes.
With the battlefield below left to Carol and Wanda, Kevin finally arrived in front of Ultron, flying at the same height, looking at each other.
"You are very confident. Do you think you can defeat me alone?"
When Kevin flew in front of Ultron, Ultron asked.
Kevin's lips curved slightly upward, and he chuckled softly:
"Perhaps, I really can defeat you?"
After speaking, he swiped his hands, and glass-like mirror surfaces refracted and rose around them.
In this final one-on-one showdown with Ultron, Kevin chose to transfer the battlefield to the Mirror Dimension.
