What If: Jack's telepathy didn't work

"Before we begin, is there anything that you have to say to me?" Thor asked Jack while playing around with the hammer in his hands

Jack shook his head in response.

"I won't apologize because I do not regret the steps I am taking to achieve my goals. I will not lie to insult both of our honors. I will not come up with any excuses for my actions. I will simply go all out to protect my people, as I am sure you will do for yours as well."

Thor was stunned when he heard Jack's response but smiled in the end.

'These are indeed the words that he would say.'

"Very well. Then let this epic battle begin!" Thor cheered as he continued to gather thunderclouds above their heads

Jack tried to reach into Thor's mind with his telepathy to shut him down but it wasn't working. As much as he tried to force himself into Thor's mind, he just couldn't find a gap.

Thor felt what Jack was trying to do and smiled. He then pointed up at the sky. Jack looked up before he saw a flash of blue lightning falling down from the sky.

"Seriously?!?!"

The lightning struck where Jack was standing but he phased right through it. The ground beneath his feet was scorched and turned into molten rock.

Jack looked below him and lowered the temperature all around him before making himself tangible once again and landing.

"Fine! Now I gotta put you down the hard way!"

Jack began summoning clouds of his own. The sky was split into two sections. On Thor's half of the sky, there were blackish-blue clouds blocking out the sun. On Jack's half were blackish-purple clouds.

"Let's see who's the better god of thunder."

Jack and Thor summoned thousands of bolts of lightning from their clouds to attack the other. The pair were equal in strength when it came to lightning. While Jack had the most powerful cosmic lightning that could be formed, Thor's lightning was empowered by his divine energy.

The storm got so bad that Krakoa lifted itself off the ground and retreated into the distance along with the two champions' allies. Many of the allied armies had been killed due to how fast the pair's attacks were.

And while Krakoa and the armies could retreat, Eden could not.

The city that Jack had been working so hard to build ended up being half-destroyed from loose bolts of lightning. The pair only exchanged attacks like this for a minute but had already destroyed over 10 miles of land.

Seeing that lightning was not working, both decided to change their strategy at the same time. Jack shifted into his Armored Titan mode and charged forward while Thor also charged ahead.

The pair punched at one another and caused a massive shockwave with Thor coming out on top. Jack was blown back and sent flying into the city.

"Rawr!!!"

Jack raised his hand high and punched toward the ground. Everyone thought he was throwing a tantrum due to losing the clash. But before Jack's fist touched the ground, Thor appeared beneath it.

Caught off guard, Thor was smashed into the ground. Jack quickly raised his arm as his other fist came down. Jack performed a classic ground and pound on his much smaller opponent.

"Enough!"

Thor was finally able to find an opening after taking over 10 hits. He enchanted his hammer with lightning and swung it at the next fist that was heading towards him.

Being overpowered once more, Jack was sent flying into a different part of Eden. This time, he was able to land on his feet but destroyed several blocks.

"Haha! Round 3 it is!" Thor cheered before flying towards Jack

Jack smiled as best he could in his titan form before hardening his skin. Blue crystals covered Jack's entire body before he started charging towards Thor.

The duo clashed once more but Jack was not sent flying. His enhanced armor was able to absorb the force of the blow well enough for him to clash with Thor.

'What?'

Jack used to opportunity while Thor was caught off guard to summon a bolt of lightning from above. Unable to block in time, Thor was sent into the ground again.

Jack backed off to shift into his Beast Titan before stretching out his hand. Jack started winding up and began the throwing motion before teleporting Thor into his hands and sending the god flying.

Using his ESP to keep track of him, Jack transformed back into his Hardened Armored Titan form before teleporting above Thor and giving him a dropkick that sent him deep into the ground.

Using telekinesis to keep himself in the air, Jack then sent a wave of raw, telekinetic force into the ground. Thor's body suffered even more damage from the second attack but Jack was not done.

He then summoned several different cosmic elements and fired them don't he hole he had sent Thor down. Although several bolts of lightning were originally shot back at him, they stopped when Jack continued his full-auto assault of elements.

Looking down, Jack scanned for Thor's brainwaves but felt how weak they were. He tried to enter the god's mind again but still couldn't.

'So gods an entirely different animal I gotta learn. Guess I need to go visit a weaker pantheon and test out how their minds work.'

Jack teleported Thor into his hands once again. Jack started to feel some electric tingling within his palm, so he began crushing Thor. Once he stopped feeling himself be electrocuted, Jack loosened his grip.

Thor's entire body was covered in injuries and Jack could see the bones in several places. But Jack knew better than to underestimate Thor's vitality. The god could survive having 90 percent of his neck being cut through it.

Unleashing a torrent of coldness, Jack froze Thor solid before dropping him back into the hole. But before Thor hit the bottom where a small cosmic storm was occurring, he was teleported back to where Gaea had first teleported them along with Jack.

Jack was also teleported back while forcibly being transformed back into his base form. Jack turned his attention to Gaea but she did not pay him any attention.

'So I've caught up to Thor, will soon catch up to Odin, still not at Gaea's level, and the end goal is beating a Celestial without dying. I still have a lot of work to do.'

"The third round shall go to Jack Frost and Jotunheim shall be under his rule for the next 100 years! This I decree!"
