Between life and death lies both great terror and great opportunity.
Only by approaching the brink of death can one truly grasp the essence of life!
As she plummeted from a height of ten thousand meters, Mystique entered an extraordinary state of being. It was as if she had gained an exquisitely detailed understanding, and every cell in her body erupted with an intense will to survive.
If one were to examine Mystique's cells under a microscope, they would find that the cells in contact with the Red Devil's hands and those wrapped around her neck were rapidly mimicking the Red Devil's cells. This transformation then spread throughout her entire body.
As a result, Mystique's skin instantly turned the same crimson hue as the Red Devil's.
At that moment, Mystique finally transcended her previous limit of merely imitating appearances. She had achieved the ability to simulate another's genes, thereby gaining the Red Devil's powers and becoming a Third-Tier Mutant.
"Incredible!"
The Red Devil froze in astonishment. Just then, a dazzling golden light erupted from below.
It was the light of Artoria's Excalibur, activated in a sacred oath.
A powerful gust of wind roared upward. Looking down, one could see a golden beam cleaving through the air and waves, kicking up massive plumes of smoke and mist—a truly spectacular sight!
This terrifying power even instilled fear in the Red Devil.
But now was not the time to worry about other matters. As the three figures plummeted closer to the ground, if they didn't teleport immediately, they would likely die from the fall in the next instant.
Having lived for millennia, the Red Devil was just as afraid of death. He immediately teleported above a US Navy warship.
The Red Devil's teleportation could be seen as opening a spatial wormhole to instantly traverse between two points.
To counteract the impact of the fall, he chose a reverse teleportation. It was as if he suddenly reversed direction mid-fall. When the three materialized, their momentum shifted, transforming their downward trajectory into an upward ascent under the force of their previous descent. This created a momentary sensation of weightlessness.
Then, under the pull of gravity, they landed on the ship, narrowly avoiding death.
Though they survived the fall from several meters high, the impact was still painful.
The Red Devil and Beast rose first, with Mystique, now in her red form, following slightly later.
Standing on the deck, they felt the ship lurch and sway violently. A rogue wave nearly swept Mystique overboard.
This tempest was all due to Artoria's Oath Light Cannon, and Han Shaoqing and Namor's battle in the ocean.
The sea churned violently, threatening to capsize even the warships. The soldiers on deck, unable to stand, clung desperately to any available object, paying no attention to the three mutants who had suddenly appeared.
"You have demon genes too. We're kindred spirits. Come with me."
Red Devil reached for Mystique, activating Mental Control to bewilder her. But Mystique instantly teleported a dozen meters away.
"Dream on. I have nothing in common with a executioner like you."
"You copied my ability! An incredible feat! I will have you..."
Red Devil grew more excited and was about to say more when the enraged Beast roared and lunged, pinning him to the ground.
"Don't even think about her. I'll kill you."
The Beast's hands clamped around Red Devil's neck, squeezing with all his might. Red Devil had many tricks, but his strength was no match for the Beast's. His eyes rolled back in his head, and he immediately teleported away, taking the Beast, who still had his hands clamped around him, along with him.
"Hank."
As the two disappeared, Mystique immediately teleported to the island's beach and peered around.
She saw Red Devil and Beast wrestling on the sand. Finally, Red Devil wrapped his tail around Beast's neck, pinning him to the ground while drawing a knife, preparing to strike a fatal blow.
Raven glanced up at the coconut tree above Red Devil's head. With a flash of movement, she grabbed a coconut and plummeted down, smashing it hard against the demon's skull.
Thud!
The dazed Red Devil collapsed motionless onto the sand.
His tail went limp. Beast coughed a few times and turned to Mystique. "Thanks."
Meanwhile...
Under threat of the Ravager's laser beams, White Queen halted and raised her hands in surrender.
Black Tom had already been subdued. Among the X-Men, only Sean had been knocked unconscious.
Darwin and Sabretooth's battle raged on, their bodies locked in a brutal struggle, each landing blows and claws against the other.
Sabretooth's claws felt like mere tickles to Darwin, scratching only the surface of his skin without breaking it. The display was ferocious, but the damage was negligible.
Darwin's fists could tear through the Sabretooth's hide. After just a few blows, the beast's fangs were knocked loose.
Bleeding profusely, the Sabretooth collapsed to the ground.
Believing the fight was over, Darwin didn't finish it off and turned to help elsewhere.
The moment he stepped away, the feigning Sabretooth sprang up, lunging onto Darwin's back. The beast's middle fingers, now like daggers, dug into Darwin's eye sockets, blinding him. It then tried to gnaw through the sockets and crush Darwin's skull.
"Aaaah!"
The searing pain ignited Darwin's ferocity. The armor on his back stiffened and extended outward, transforming into hundreds of steel-like spikes.
This mutation, mimicking the defensive posture of porcupines and hedgehogs, impaled the Sabretooth's body. The two figures were now inextricably linked in a gruesome tableau of blood and flesh.
An ordinary person would have been killed instantly.
But the Sabretooth possessed regenerative abilities even surpassing Wolverine's. Despite being riddled with spikes, it refused to die.
The two continued to mutually injure each other, Sabretooth digging his claws into Darwin's eye sockets.
The spikes on Darwin's back contracted violently, then erupted, turning Sabretooth's body into a riddled mess.
"Hahaha, you little brat! Let's see who dies first!"
Sabretooth, a veteran who had survived countless gunfights, possessed extraordinary resilience. Though his injuries were far more severe, his remarkable healing ability allowed him to dismiss them with ease.
Darwin's endurance clearly fell short. With his eyes pierced, the pain and terror drove him to instinctively grab Sabretooth's hands and wrench them outward.
The two struggled in agony, locked in a mutual struggle. While Darwin's strength was comparable to Sabretooth's, his blindness left him weakened, each movement sending searing pain through his body.
"Darwin, get down."
The voice of the angel Salvadore rang out. Darwin immediately dropped to the ground, pinning Sabretooth beneath him.
The angel didn't hesitate, opening his mouth and spewing a mixture of superheated, highly toxic compounds.
The corrosive substance landed on Sabretooth's body, instantly igniting and blistering his flesh.
"Release him!"
The Ravager roared, gathering laser beams in his hands.
Sabretooth sensed the danger. His primal instincts screamed that a direct hit would be disastrous.
