- Global Reincarnation: Only I Know the Plot
- GROIKTP Chapter 563
Seeing Chen Ye and his group, Thanos furrowed his brow.
After the unpleasant encounter with the Saiyans, Thanos had become instinctively cautious around any group of strangers.
Yes, strangers!
In the Reincarnation Tower dungeons, Chen Ye and Murong Chuxue had encountered Thanos before. However, in this dungeon, Thanos had no recollection of Chen Ye and the others.
“Father… should we leave?” Nebula, standing behind Thanos, asked in a low voice.
Thanos gave Chen Ye and his group a deep, calculating look before glancing at his two daughters. After a moment of thought, he slowly spoke.
“No! We will do nothing.”
He could tell that Chen Ye’s group was cautious—far less impulsive than the group he had encountered earlier, who had attacked without hesitation.
Caution meant that the other side wasn’t acting recklessly.
In Thanos’ eyes, there was a chance they might withdraw voluntarily.
Moreover, Thanos was no ordinary being—he was a galactic warlord, the ruler of an army. Fleeing without a fight wasn’t something a king like him would do…
So, Thanos decided to stand his ground, leaving the next move to the other side.
…
“Shura, what should we do now?”
Although Murong Chuxue whispered her question, her gaze remained fixed on Thanos.
In the third phase of the *Avengers* dungeon, she had fought against Thanos and knew how formidable the “Purple Grape” could be.
Now, encountering him here, Murong Chuxue didn’t dare lower her guard.
Seeing how serious she was, a Reincarnator behind her couldn’t help but ask, “Commander, is this purple monster really that powerful?”
Murong Chuxue nodded. “He is the main boss of the third phase of the *Avengers* dungeon. His strength is immense, and according to the Reincarnation Space’s evaluation, he’s at least S-rank!”
The military Reincarnator immediately fell silent upon hearing that.
Murong Chuxue then suggested, “Shura, it doesn’t seem like Thanos intends to fight. How about we leave first?”
Her suggestion was the safest course of action.
Having experienced Thanos’ might firsthand, Murong Chuxue preferred to avoid a confrontation.
But Chen Ye suddenly said, “Chuxue, did you notice the battle scars on Thanos? His armor is damaged in places… and most of his subordinates are missing, aren’t they?”
Murong Chuxue took a closer look at Thanos. She noticed that while he still appeared imposing, there was an underlying sense of weakness about him.
Before Murong Chuxue could ask further, Chen Ye continued, “He’s injured!”
“And not lightly!”
“The most important thing is, he doesn’t have the Infinity Stones!”
There was a meaningful tone in Chen Ye’s voice. “Without the Infinity Stones, Thanos isn’t so terrifying…”
Chen Ye had the right to say this!
Even with his abilities currently sealed, his base attributes were more than enough to take on a Thanos without the Infinity Stones.
Hearing this, a glint of understanding flashed in Murong Chuxue’s eyes.
“Shura, are you suggesting…”
“This is an opportunity! A chance to kill Thanos!”
Chen Ye spoke slowly. “This is a battleground similar to *PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds*! Although the system doesn’t explicitly require us to kill, we can’t rely solely on hiding to survive until the end… I doubt the system would make things that simple!”
Murong Chuxue only took a moment to process this before she exhaled deeply. “Shura, I trust your judgment!”
The other Reincarnators also quickly voiced their support:
“We trust you, Shura!”
“Shura-sama, we’ll follow your lead.”
“We’ll carry out your orders!”
It was clear that everyone had immense faith in Shura, who had repeatedly created miracles.
With the support of his teammates, Chen Ye’s resolve solidified.
“Chuxue, you and I will handle Thanos! The other two are yours—don’t let them escape.”
Chen Ye spoke in a low voice, issuing his orders. “We’ll slowly move closer. Wait for my signal, then we strike… and finish this quickly!”
“Understood!”
Everyone responded in hushed tones.
With the plan set, Chen Ye took the lead and started moving toward Thanos.
The rest followed closely behind.
…
Chen Ye and his group’s movements immediately caught Thanos’ attention.
Watching them approach, Thanos’ frown deepened.
“Father?”
Gamora stepped closer to Thanos, her face tense. “They don’t seem to have good intentions. Should we… leave?”
Thanos sighed.
In this godforsaken place, where could they run to?
Even if they avoided this group, they would likely encounter another soon.
Instead of running endlessly, it would be better to carve out a bloody path.
Besides, as a ruler of the universe, Thanos wasn’t inclined to flee…
“Gamora, Nebula, my children, you should go. I’ll buy you some time.”
“Father?” Nebula seemed surprised.
It was hard for her to believe that the cold and ruthless Thanos would say something like that.
Thanos ignored Nebula, his gaze distant as though he were lost in thought.
Nebula hesitated, unsure whether to stay or leave.
She feared this might be a test of her loyalty.
In Nebula’s mind, there was a chance that if she took a step to leave, Thanos might strike her down for her disloyalty.
With this fear in mind, Nebula immediately pledged her loyalty. “Father, I will always be loyal to you!”
Gamora sighed and followed suit, trying to reassure him. “Maybe they’re just coming over to ask for information…”
As she spoke, Chen Ye and his group closed in, forming a loose encirclement around Thanos, Gamora, and Nebula.
It was clear now.
They weren’t coming in peace!!
Thanos glanced at Chen Ye, Murong Chuxue, and the others, his weathered face breaking into a faint smile.
“Are you here for my head? Are you ready to pay with blood?”
Chen Ye’s face remained calm. Without further words, he shouted, “Attack!!”
At his command, Chen Ye rushed toward Thanos.
Murong Chuxue followed closely behind.
The others quickly moved to surround Gamora and Nebula.
*Whoosh!*
The sound of wind being sliced filled the air.
It was Chen Ye’s fist, aimed straight at Thanos’ chest.
Instead of dodging, Thanos threw a punch of his own, aiming for Chen Ye’s face.
Both strikes landed simultaneously!
*Bang!*
Chen Ye and Thanos each staggered back a few steps.
Both had taken a hit from the other.
On the surface, it seemed like an even match.
But in reality, Chen Ye had the advantage because Thanos was already weakened.
In his prime, Thanos could overpower the Hulk in raw strength!
Glaring at Chen Ye, Thanos was visibly furious!
He hadn’t expected this seemingly “small” human to possess such incredible strength, comparable to the previous battle maniac he had faced.
What angered Thanos even more was how unlucky he seemed to be.
Ever since arriving on this island, every group he encountered was full of monsters!
