Chapter 57 - Chapter 57: Awakening of the Fourth Power

The battlefield had surpassed the limits of Earth.

What began as a war… had now become something far greater.

The sky itself was fractured.

Energy storms raged above New York, twisting clouds into unnatural spirals. Buildings stood half-destroyed, streets shattered, and the ground trembled under the weight of power far beyond human comprehension.

At the center of it all stood two figures.

One—the conqueror of worlds.

Thanos.

The other—

A being who should not exist.

Fredy.

Between them, the air distorted constantly, unable to stabilize under the pressure of their presence.

For a moment—

Neither moved.

Because both understood something important.

The next exchange…

Would decide everything.

The Weight of Evolution

Fredy stood still.

But inside him—

Everything was changing.

The system interface burned brighter than ever before.

Critical Evolution Triggered

Fourth Template Slot: UNLOCKING

Energy Stabilization Required…

Three forces clashed within his body.

Shadow.

Space.

Chakra.

They had coexisted until now—but this time was different.

This time…

They were reacting.

Resisting.

Colliding.

Fredy clenched his fist.

Pain shot through his entire body.

Not physical pain—

But something deeper.

As if his very existence was being rewritten.

Far away, watching through battle sensors, Tony Stark spoke in a low voice:

"…He's overloading."

Spider-Man stood beside him, unusually serious.

"Is that… bad?"

Tony didn't answer immediately.

Because the readings made no sense.

Energy levels beyond measurable limits.

Biological structure fluctuating.

Spatial distortions forming around Fredy's body.

Finally, Tony spoke:

"If he loses control…"

He didn't finish the sentence.

He didn't need to.

The Titan Advances

Thanos took a step forward.

The ground cracked beneath his feet.

"You hesitate," he said calmly.

Fredy lifted his head slightly.

"I'm evolving."

Thanos nodded.

"I can see that."

Another step.

"You are becoming something new."

Another.

"But evolution without control…"

He raised his hand.

"…leads to destruction."

Then—

He attacked.

Faster than before.

Stronger than before.

A punch that carried enough force to level entire cities.

Fredy reacted instantly.

Infinity activated.

The attack slowed—

But didn't fully stop.

It pushed closer than ever before.

Fredy crossed his arms and blocked.

BOOOOOOM.

The impact shattered the street beneath him, sending shockwaves across several blocks.

Fredy slid back.

But didn't fall.

He looked up.

Blood at the corner of his mouth.

And smiled.

"Good."

Collapse and Control

The system pulsed violently.

Energy Instability Detected

Fourth Template Selection Required

A spinning wheel appeared in Fredy's vision.

Different figures flashed rapidly.

Warriors.

Gods.

Monsters.

Kings.

Each one radiated overwhelming power.

Fredy's breathing slowed.

He ignored the battlefield.

Ignored Thanos.

Ignored everything.

Because this moment—

Was critical.

If he chose wrong…

The system could collapse.

Or worse—

Consume him entirely.

The wheel spun faster.

Faster.

Then—

It began to slow.

One figure became clearer.

Then clearer.

Until finally—

It stopped.

Fourth Template Acquired

Template #4:

Son Goku

Silence.

For a single moment—

The entire battlefield went still.

Then—

Everything exploded.

Power Beyond Limits

A golden aura erupted from Fredy's body.

Wild.

Uncontrolled.

Violent.

Wind blasted outward in all directions.

Debris lifted into the air.

Even Thanos took a step back.

"…Saiyan power," the Titan murmured.

Fredy's body trembled.

Ki surged through him.

Raw energy—pure, overwhelming, explosive.

Completely different from chakra.

Completely different from shadows.

Completely different from Infinity.

This power didn't control.

It didn't calculate.

It didn't protect.

It simply…

Dominated.

Fredy screamed.

Not in pain.

But in release.

Energy surged higher.

Stronger.

Brighter.

His hair flickered slightly under the pressure of transformation.

The system stabilized.

All Templates Synchronizing

Power Integration: SUCCESS

Fredy opened his eyes.

Now—

There was something different.

Calmer.

Sharper.

More dangerous.

The Return of the Hunter

Fredy looked at Thanos.

But this time—

It wasn't curiosity.

It wasn't testing.

It was certainty.

"I understand now."

Thanos smiled.

"Then show me."

Fredy disappeared.

Not with Shadow Dash.

Not with teleportation.

But pure speed.

Ki-enhanced movement beyond visual perception.

He appeared directly in front of Thanos.

And punched.

BOOM.

The impact echoed like thunder.

Thanos was pushed back.

Not stopped.

Not slowed.

But forced backward.

For the first time since arriving on Earth—

The Mad Titan was driven back by sheer force.

Spider-Man stared from afar.

"…Okay."

"That's new."

Tony whispered:

"That's not new…"

"That's terrifying."

Clash of Titans

The battle escalated instantly.

Fredy moved faster.

Stronger.

More aggressive.

Each punch carried Ki.

Each movement carried precision.

Each attack combined three systems—

Now enhanced by a fourth.

Shadow clones attacked from multiple angles.

Infinity blocked incoming counterattacks.

Sage Mode predicted movements.

And now—

Goku's power amplified everything.

Fredy formed a new attack.

Energy gathered in his hands.

Not chakra.

Not shadow.

But Ki.

A glowing sphere formed.

"Let's try this…"

He thrust it forward.

"Kamehameha."

A massive beam of energy exploded toward Thanos.

The attack tore through the battlefield, leaving destruction in its path.

Thanos crossed his arms and blocked.

The ground beneath him shattered as he was pushed back again.

But this time—

He laughed.

A deep.

Satisfied laugh.

"Yes."

"This is what I wanted."

The Beginning of the End

The sky burned.

Energy storms raged.

Armies clashed below.

But above all—

Two figures stood at the peak of power.

Fredy.

Now wielding four templates.

And Thanos.

The conqueror of worlds.

The next phase of the battle had begun.

And this time—

It would not end easily.
