"I thought you were a genius, don't you know what happened to your suit?" Tony asked, still mocking his counterpart.
616-Tony was still thinking that John did some sorcery to help Tony but then it struck him. He had experimented on it long before. That metal was found in Savage Land but in very low quantities.
"This is Anti-Metal?" 616-Tony asked.
"Congratulations. You are not as dumb as I thought you were." Tony said.
"Enough playing around. Fury, call the Illuminati. We need to talk to them." Wayne said stopping Tony. 616-Tony was devastated because he had worked on Anti-Metal before but he could never make it stable.
But his counterpart was able to stabilize it and even make it in a suit for himself. He was utterly defeated both in power and intelligence. He thought he could parade his pride but he was shown reality again.
Fury meanwhile called all the high level Avengers to come to Stark Tower since Wayne here called them. And even called the mutants who were in Genosha (Krakoa, I am not sure what that island is called now. At first it was Genosha but in recent comics it's called Krakoa, it's a living island. And yes in the recent Marvel Comics kaijus came into being)
"Fury, get me into a conference call with the World Council. I need to talk to them before everybody arrives." John said
"Uhh.. Are you sure you want to talk to them?" Fury asked skeptically as he felt fear that John would just kill them to bring world order.
"Why? You fear that I will kill them? I am not Hitler, Fury." John said. Fury sighed as he connected to a conference video call with the World Council.
And after a minute, the call went through and all the council members appeared in a holographic form.
"Fury why haven't you received our.... Ehh." One council member was ready to reprimand Fury but stopped in her words as she saw John. Wayne took the lead in confronting the Council man as John was too lazy to even talk with politicians.
"The recent broadcast was enough for you to know who we are and since Fury is upto speed about us, I will presume you know about John. But I will still introduce myself. We are John's friends from another universe and I am the current Secretary of SHIELD. Bruce Wayne."
"Hello... welcome to our universe..." said another council member. They all had fears in their eyes. What John showed to them was 100% legitimate and they feared John and his friends. The videos that they had received made them understand that these new people that John had brought were on a whole new level.
"I will make this short as we have other meetings to attend to. Dump your politics and your greed. This planet has suffered enough. Tell all the leaders of the countries of the world to stop fueling hatred and bully everyone you see fit." Wayne said in a serious tone.
"I am sorry, we don't understand what you are talking about." said another council member.
"You guys already know what Wayne is talking about. Make it right. Stop with your filthy politics. We have threatened the general public, what makes you think we will not threaten you. Keep your leaders in check, or we will be forced to take the matters into our own hands and as John had mentioned before. You won't like how we handle things." Clark chimed in when the conference was going on.
This was little out of character for both Wayne and Clark but John directed them to say those words. He didn't want to be at the forefront of every matter so he asked his summons to take the lead in the matter.
"Are you threatening us?" the woman council member said.
"Threat? No this is a fact that we are stating, don't think that just because you sit in a very high political position gives you immunity. Moral codes are fine, but don't test it's boundaries. Back off from the affairs of Avengers." Wayne said as he switched off the call.
"Seems like our boy scout is quite angry." Tony said he listened to the conversation from the side.
"I have seen what Doom has done in the name of expansion. These people just know how to bark but can never bite. Doom was given too free of a reign to do what he likes. Fury, how did you all let this happen?" Clark asked.
"SHIELD tried to stop him and even the council threatened with nuclear war, but all he did was threaten the lives of the top leaders in the name of assassination and all backed off." Fury replied as he saw the unconscious Doom lying on the floor.
"Everything will change from today. I will make sure of it." John replied at the end. He really wanted the main Earth to get their bearings in line and work for a common goal.
And that was to save humanity. Both from outsiders and insiders.

The native Avengers, the mutants, Black Panther and many others showed up for this as Fury had called. And since they all got the powers back, they knew who was behind this and they didn't want to anger him more, like they did last time.
Since Stark Tower was once the headquarters of the Avengers, the hall where they all met was big enough to handle everyone.
Many famous Avenger came for this like Spider-Man, Ms. Marvel, Steve Rogers, Hawkeye, and mutants such as Logan, Emma, Scott, Wanda, Professor X (There is a mini series of how he came back alive after the House of M, you can read it if you want) and even Namor showed up.
John and his team were already present and sitting in their respective seats when they arrived. Honestly, the 616-Avengers were a little bit afraid of them. And that was only for one person.
That was John Jameson.
The power he showed last time and even the simple move he did in the live broadcast was enough to invoke the deepest fears. Wanda didn't have perfect control of herself when she changed reality, but While John had perfect control over everything and that made him more dangerous.
For the first time, the Avengers got to see their counterparts from another universe. It happened for the first time for both of them. There was an awkward silence in the hall when all had arrived and were seated.
"It had been some time since I saw some of you." John said with a smile.
"It's been some time." T'Challa replied.
"How did it feel to be on the same level as a normal human being? Didn't feel so great now. Did it?" John said. All hung their heads in shame. Except for mutants, most of them felt guilty for whatever happened.
Only by living among the common men, they were reminded of their roots and essence of why they had become superheroes in the first place. Villains would always be there, but their heart for doing the right thing was what they had lost along the way.
"You have brought back our powers. Are there any conditions?" Ms Marvel asked.
"No conditions. You are free to do whatever you want. Do politics. Be selfish. I don't care. You are grown ups. Not babies who need a babysitter. I called you all just to have a normal meeting between doppelgangers. My universe has never seen mutants and many of you aren't actually present in our universe."
"This is more like an exhibition for us. And you are the show pieces for me." John joked. He really didn't call the Avengers for any particular reason but to see some fun to be played out by two versions of Avengers in a parallel universe.
"We would be glad to introduce ourselves to our new friends." Professor X replied without paying much heed to the subtle insult he gave to them.
"Last time I came you weren't present. I am glad you didn't hold it against Wanda for changing the reality." John said.
"It's not her fault that she lost her sanity. I too was responsible for what had happened. I am just glad that you gave us a helping hand." Charles said.
The environment got out of the awkward situation after Charles started the conversation, and thus the Avengers who were meeting their other versions for the first time started talking with each other. Not all of them were like Tony who were on each other's throats.
Their talks were more peaceful while they exchanged ideas.
Namor got to see his counterpart Aquaman and was surprised to see that his other version was way more powerful and intelligent than him. 616- Pietro was faster than Pietro but when he raced against Flash, he was left in dust.
"What is this? Why do you give away lightning when you run?" 616-Pietro asked.
"It's because he has access to the Speed Force." Peitro replied to him instead of Flash.
"Speed Force? What is that?" 616-Pietro was confused when he heard this new term. Then Pietro proceeded to explain. After the fall of the mutants, 616-Pietro were the few of them who had retained their powers, and originally he was supposed to be held responsible for the downfall of them.
But due to the loss of Avengers and how Wanda lost sanity nobody pointed their finger at him. Thus he was accepted again in the mutant group where they were allowed to live at Genosha. (After House of M, Pietro went a little crazy and even started experiments using Terrigen crystals to bring back the mutants that they had lost.)
"Your world doesn't have my counterpart?" Doctor Strange asked in a very meek tone. Many people still blamed him for the situation they were in as John had a particular hatred for him.
"We do. And he is more powerful than the current you. But since he is more powerful he has more responsibilities. So Thor and Strange didn't come with us. There should always be a Sorcerer Supreme on our Earth." 616-Strange nodded his head to the reply of John and was relieved that John didn't show any hostility in his voice while speaking to him.
