Johnny got smashed into the ground, but he quickly got up, pushing back against the Ice Hammer.
Ghost Rider not only possessed immense regeneration but also invulnerability.
The Ice Hammer was able to put him down, but it couldn't cause any damage.
He quickly grabbed the Frost Giant's wrist and slammed him to the ground. Only then other Frost Giants realize he had changed his size.
From the size of a normal human, he had become the size of a Frost Giant.
He grabbed another Frost Giant, summoning a large portion of his hellfire from his mouth, and burned the Frost Giant.
Clack! Clack!
Suddenly, two shadows appeared next to him and slammed him with two large swords from the back.
These swords managed to pierce through his invulnerability, but Johnny didn't care.
He released an intense wave of Hellfire, trying to burn these swords.
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Suddenly, several Dark Elves appeared from the sides and started shooting him with energy weapons.
Each strike was enough to push him back, and each strike was damaging his body.
Unable to bear these attacks, Johnny channeled a large amount of Hellfire around him, creating a large sphere of Hellfire.
He controlled one side of the sphere, turning it into a large arrow, and shot it towards those Dark Elves.
Boom!
Although those Dark Elves were powerful, they weren't as powerful as the Frost Giant. A single blast of his Hellfire, and most of them died immediately.
Inside the Hellfire sphere, Johnny had begun healing while thinking about his enemies.
'Frost Giants are weak against my Hellfire, but these Dark Elves won't give me a chance to attack the Frost Giants.'
'Besides me, only Hulk has the power to fight Frost Giant. That reminds me. Did Fury invite Hulk?'
Yes, Fury did invite Hulk, or rather Bruce Banner!
Unfortunately, Banner disagreed.
He never expected Banner to disagree. He knew Banner wasn't the type of guy to ignore a war like this.
In the original timeline, Bruce and Betty went their separate ways because Bruce couldn't control Hulk.
He managed to weaken Hulk, but he was immediately forced to use Hulk's power, helping Hulk regain his strength.
The same thing didn't happen here.
Bruce and Betty were close, and he didn't need to worry about Hulk coming out in an unexpected moment.
And, Betty paid the price for this. So, how could he even think of leaving her behind, just because of a war that didn't even concern him?
Unless this war pushes humanity to extinction, he wouldn't get involved.
He also invited Wolverine, but Wolverine didn't come alone.
Yeah!
X-Men also decided to join the battle.
Logan, Scott, Bobby, Ororo, Jean, Anna, Monti, Boris, and Illena decided to join the battle.
Charles didn't let other students fight. In fact, he only allowed Bobby and Anna to join because of their powers.
Bobby, being a potential Omega mutant, needed a battle to sharpen his strength.
Anna could now use her powers, not for destruction but for protection. He wanted Anna to accept her power.
Despite everything she went through, Anna still hadn't completely accepted her power.
It was only thanks to Illena that she chose to keep her powers.
As soon as X-Men joined the battle, the state of the battle shifted drastically.
Their powers began overwhelming those Dark Elves and Frost Giants, especially Jean and Ororo, who managed to overwhelm dozens at once.
At this moment, somewhere far from the battlefield, a young girl wearing a purple suit was broadcasting the entire war.
This time, she wasn't using her phone but rather an actual camera. There was also a cameraman alongside another individual on his side.
"Hello everyone, you know me. I am back with another battle, but this time we are broadcasting a live war between Earth and Aliens."
"Yes, just like many of you out there, I am also digesting the fact that aliens have invaded us."
"This is Mystical News, and we are currently broadcasting from New Mexico. Here, as you can see, X-Men have joined the battle."
"Wow! That is Phoenix, right? She is blasting through those Dark Elves with her Telekinesis."
"Wait, that's Storm! She is truly a Weather Goddess, controlling lightning to strike down dozens of Frost Giants."
"Captain America, Ghost Rider, Iron Man, Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., and even people from Asgard have joined the battle against these Dark Elves and Frost Giants."
"Now you might be questioning how I know all of this. So, let me introduce you to our previous Hero 'Naruto'."
As she said, the camera shifted towards Naruto, who was waving towards the camera with a big smile.
"So, Mr Naruto, why aren't you participating in this battle?"
"Because I made a bet." Naruto answered with a grin on his face.
"A bet? What kind of bet is it? Can you tell the public about your bet and who you bet against?"
Amelia excitedly asked.
"My friend Adam previously told me humans and mutants can't work together. I always wanted to prove him wrong."
"So, I decided to make a bet with him for this war. The question is whether humans and mutants can work together."
"If they can't, I also can't save humans. But if they can, my friend will let go of his hatred against all humanity."
"That's why I won't participate in this war."
Hearing his words, Amelia asked.
"Does your friend hate humans so much?"
"Of course, there will always be people who will hate others for no reason. We can't stop them from appearing, but we need to stop them from harming innocent people."
"That's why I want my friend to let go of his hatred against humans."
Naruto nodded his head and replied with a solemn expression.
Amelia asked.
"Then, how does this bet work? Like, they are already working together, aren't they?"
Naruto shook his head.
"They are not a team. From the human side, Ghost Rider, Iron Man, Captain America, and Shield Agents are doing their best."
"But only Ghost Rider has the power to fight these Frost Giants and Dark Elves. On the other hand, they are not even strategizing with mutants."
"In simple words, they are fighting the same battle but separately. This is not teamwork. But I believe they can do this."
"Me too! I also believe in the cooperation of mutants and humans. But Sir Naruto, even if you can't participate in war, can you at least protect two of us?"
She joked as she turned towards the battle.
"I am hoping Mr Naruto can protect me."
She said with a huge grin.
"Wow! Look, Captain America and Wolverine have started working together. It seems like Mr Naruto's gonna win this bet."
"Oh no, Captain America was sent flying by another Frost Giant. And now Wolverine is cooperating with Cyclops."
"Wow, Cyclops is heating Wolverine's metal claws, and Wolverine is using those metal claws to pierce the body of a Frost Giant."
"So, this is true teamwork. I hope they can figure out a way to work together; otherwise, Mr Naruto will not be able to help us in the future."
Saying so, she turned back and asked.
"Mr. Naruto, if they can't cooperate in this battle, will you never help humans in the future?"
Naruto shook his head and said.
"I never go back on my words. That's my way of life. If they can't cooperate, I will not help humans in the future."
"But…"
Amelia felt pitiful when she heard that. She wanted to change his mind, but thinking about the bet, she couldn't say a word.
"But don't worry, as long as one of them starts cooperating with mutants, there will be a lot of room to maneuver."
Naruto chuckled as he pointed his finger towards Ghost Rider and Anna.
It turned out Anna had absorbed the powers of Ghost Rider, making her physical as strong as Ghost Rider.
And, her touch didn't affect him at all.
"Wow! Are they sharing some kind of bond in the middle of a war? No, that's not a bond. That's the fire ability of Ghost Rider."
"This young mutant has the ability to copy others' powers. Mr Naruto, do you know anything about this young mutant?"
"Her name is Anna Marie. She is one of the very unfortunate mutants who received the power to kill others in a single touch."
"Because of this, she has been alone for a long time. But recently, thanks to my Lord, she is now fully able to control her powers."
"That's quite a pitiful power, but it's also ridiculous."
Amelia commented.
"Yeah! She can now absorb others' powers without killing them. But this is still not true teamwork."
"Mr Naruto, look! Cyclops is firing his laser at Captain America's shield, and Captain America is deflecting it back at the Frost Giants."
"Wow! This is a teamwork move, right?"
"Oh my god! The aliens are using spaceships."
Amelia screamed as the camera zoomed in on several spaceships that started appearing out of nowhere and started firing at humans.
"Captain!"
Scott shouted, but it was too late. One of the attack pods launched a laser beam from behind and struck Captain America on the back.
Scott fired his laser beam at the attack pod before it could even move away.
Boom!
