Iceman observed Juggernaut hot on Max's trail and quickly readied himself to intervene. However, before he could make a move, a gunshot rang out, and a searing pain shot through his arm.
Realizing the danger, he hastily encased his entire body in ice, creating a formidable shield just in time for bullets to rain down. Iceman's frozen fortress provided cover not only for himself but also for others, who rushed in to assist.
The Sentry Secret Service's agenda was clear – prevent Iceman from aiding Max. Frustrated, Iceman reluctantly turned away and headed towards John.
.....
The ground quivered under the thunderous steps of Juggernaut.
As Juggernaut closed in, Max tossed aside his gun and retracted the sais. Unsure of Juggernaut's uniform material but aware of its durability, Max opted for a strategic approach. After all, facing a human tank required cunning.
As Juggernaut approached, Max executed a swift maneuver, dodging the impending collision. A friendly pat on Juggernaut's back, and the massive figure soared into the air. The force propelled him a few steps forward before he regained stability and charged again.
Max grinned as Juggernaut closed in and snapped his fingers, whispering, "Revolving door!"
Juggernaut's vision spun, and he stumbled, his movements becoming unsteady, as if intoxicated. Step by step, he slowed down until he knelt before Max, swaying like a ship in rough waters.
The onlookers were stunned. The plan was to witness a clash between Juggernaut and Max, Mutant against Mutant. However, to their surprise, Juggernaut kneeled almost immediately. What had transpired?
From a distance, the spectators couldn't discern Juggernaut's expression, but they witnessed him kneeling before Max.
Max lifted his foot, connecting with Juggernaut's shoulders. The impact sent Juggernaut sprawling onto the ground, bewildering everyone present. Juggernaut, who was supposed to be the unstoppable force, now lay defeated.
Juggernaut's eyes glazed over, whirling in a disoriented manner, a clear sign that he had succumbed to unconsciousness. The Sentry Secret Service, once reliant on Juggernaut's formidable might, now found him effortlessly neutralized by Max. The ease with which Max handled the challenge left them dumbfounded.
Watching Juggernaut, Max extended his hand, attempting to lift the seemingly colossal figure. "It's so heavy!" he exclaimed, struggling with the weight.
Addressing the distant Sentry secret service, Max shouted, "Hey, you guys, who's coming to help me lift this thing?"
The Sentry personnel exchanged perplexed glances.
"Fire!" commanded Jestner, his expression darkening.
In an instant, a barrage of gunfire targeted Max. Undeterred, Max raised his hands, and the space in front of him transformed, creating an arch that shielded him from the incoming bullets. The projectiles hit the arch, causing explosions that painted the scene with chaos.
From the Sentry Special Service's perspective, explosions erupted everywhere, but a diagonal glance revealed a serene spot next to Max, untouched by the chaos.
As the arch disappeared, silence descended.
"Jestner," Max called out suddenly. "You're wasting taxpayers' money. This kind of attack is useless against me. I suggest sending a few people to help me carry away this trophy."
"Don't even think about it!" Jestner emerged from the command room.
Max chuckled, "Your weakness is so blatant. It makes me want to exploit it. I know you've cleared the area, but is it really effective? I can leave, and you can't stop me."
Indignant, Jestner's face turned pale.
"I've completed my mission of rescuing those people. What's next? I might come after you, attack the Sentry Secret Service base, or free all the Mutants you've captured. Oh, and I might just find a quiet place to practice my abilities!"
Fury flashed across Jeistner's face.
"Why bother considering it a trophy? Just send a few people to help, and this matter will be resolved," Max suggested casually.
Unwilling to yield, Jeistner hesitated. The thought of succumbing to Max's demands fueled his anger. He couldn't let Mutants be bullied, especially not by Max.
Just as Jeistner prepared to reject Max's proposition, someone nearby intervened.
"Hold on! Let him take Juggernaut away."
