[News! I've Already Confronted the Five Kage, and the System Just Arrived! Event!!!]
<150 Power Stones/Chapter!>

Quickly, Eddie sold the news about the mutated tiger for a very high price.
As he had anticipated, anything related to the Messiah drew significant attention.
Even a mutated tiger was no exception. Upon hearing the news, many people started plotting to capture it.
While Eddie happily counted his money and various factions rejoiced at the appearance of the mutated tiger, Irina, who hadn't hosted a live broadcast in a long time, started one!
Under the spotlight, Irina, with her slender figure and wearing a light green long dress, looked stunning.
"Hello, everyone! It's been a long time."
Irina smiled, her red lips captivating.
Watching the broadcast, the audience and netizens felt confused.
Even the X-Men and the Brotherhood of Mutants were puzzled.
Since Irina had mentioned the authorities' plans to bring more firepower and troops, only for them to lose again, she hadn't hosted any live broadcasts for a long time.
Whether it was embarrassment or fear of backlash, she hadn't continued her show.
So why now? Under the spotlight, Irina showed a pitiful expression.
"I know you want to criticize me, but please hold off. This time, I bring you the latest news about the Messiah."
The latest news about the Messiah? The audience and netizens were intrigued, and the mutants watching became more alert.
The news about the Messiah made them pause their criticisms, ready to hear what Irina had to say.
Under the spotlight, Irina sighed, "According to reliable sources, the monstrous tiger roaming the city and killing people is related to the Messiah."
"It's rumored that this tiger's mutation and birth are connected to him..."
Hearing her words, countless viewers were stunned.
Lately, besides news about the Messiah and the White-Clad Freak, the murderous tiger had garnered the most attention online.
The tiger's presence had made many people afraid to leave their homes, fearing for their lives.
And now, this murderous tiger was connected to the Messiah? The audience was shocked.
Irina continued, "Rest assured, the authorities are already planning to capture it. It won't be long before this mutated tiger is dealt with."
"Moreover, I have more news for you today."
"According to reliable sources, the Messiah has appeared in a small city."
Her face filled with righteous indignation, Irina said, "This Messiah not only defies the government's attempts to capture him but is also recruiting disciples."
"He has gathered many mutants, seemingly to oppose the government. Among them, twelve apostles, or guardian knights, have committed numerous heinous acts."
Upon hearing this, both ordinary viewers and mutants like the X-Men were taken aback.
The Messiah was recruiting mutants to rebel against the government? And he had appointed twelve apostles? At the X-Mansion.
"This child..."
Professor X, sitting in his wheelchair, looked grave, sighing inwardly at the misguided path the Messiah was taking.
He pondered how to guide this powerful Omega mutant back onto the right path.
Beside him, the burly Colossus and Wolverine, Logan, looked incredulous.
Could Su really be doing such things? They found it hard to believe.
At the Brotherhood of Mutants.
Erik, listening to Irina's latest news, brightened up, smiling gradually.
"This child is on the right path..."
Not only did he think the Messiah was not wrong, but he also thought he was doing great.
He felt that the Messiah was becoming more like him. If they met, they might become close friends. Magneto thought to himself.
At Stark Tower.
Tony Stark, busy working on his armor, looked serious, feeling that human society might face significant turmoil because of the Messiah.
He wondered if there was any way to stop the Messiah...
Meanwhile, in the broadcast, Irina pointed to a large screen in the distance.
In the next second, the large screen filled most of the broadcast, with Irina becoming a small window.
As the footage began playing, Irina narrated, "This is a battle scene of one of the twelve apostles, the Crystal Man."
In front of countless viewers, a young black man was confronting seven or eight armed men.
The young man smirked, then extended his right hand towards them.
In the next instant, the armed men cried out as transparent, crystalline substances rapidly covered their bodies.
In mere moments, they were immobilized, transformed into crystal statues.
Through the transparent crystals, their terrified, desperate expressions were visible.
They looked like insects trapped in amber, frozen in time.
During this, some had realized the danger and fired their guns, but the bullets were encased in crystals mid-air and fell to the ground.
This only deepened their despair.
As the footage played, Irina, with a serious expression, said, "This is the power of the Messiah's disciple, one of the twelve apostles, the Crystal Man."
"Recently, he attacked this base alone, and everyone inside died. Not a single person survived!"
"This Crystal Man's actions are utterly vile, defying the law!"
Finally, Irina said gravely, "And this is just one of the Messiah's apostles. There are eleven more!"
Listening to her, countless people gasped.
This was terrifying! What kind of power, what kind of force was this? Especially with the Messiah involved! At this point, the footage of the Crystal Man changed to another scene.
In the new footage, a familiar-looking young man in black stood on a platform, giving a speech.
Below him, hundreds of fanatical followers listened.
This shocking scene made countless people gasp again.
Ordinary citizens were terrified, though a small number were dismissive.
"Does he really think he's a god?"
"Does he think no one can take him down?"
"Having some power makes him so arrogant?"
These were the voices of those in positions of power and those with strong abilities.
