"Now the question is how will we handle Thanos?" John asked as that was the last situation that they needed to discuss. Thanos had done pretty awful things in his lifetime. He had killed innocents in his whole conquest and this was not something everyone could just look over. Even Loki who had only killed a few people was given punishments.
From the looks of it he had done quite a service for them by bringing the Totality but this was not enough. Not enough to satiate the deal souls that were now roaming in the Kingdom of Death.
"Should have given a death penalty but since he had done quite a service for us he will ve served a lifetime imprisonment. All in favor raise your hand." Clark said.
All of the people of John's universe raised their hands. Only a little over half of the number of people from John's universe was present as the rest were back on Earth but something told John that whatever decision was taken just now would be accepted by all the members.
This was the best trial that Thanos could face. If it was in the hands of the people of his universe he would have been hanged till death or be given the worst treatment possible for a prisoner. Of course the people would have to catch him first, which in itself was a huge matter altogether.
It was decided that Thanos would be transferred to the Ring soon after he was healthy enough to move. It was not that it wasn't required for Thanos to be good enough, it was just that they feared that there might be other beings trying to get out of the Crack in order to hunt down Thanos.
Thanos was hunted down for sure after what he had done, now the question was how far were his hunters going to go to apprehend him, so everyone wanted to wait. And even if they leave later, there would be tight security for it.
Clark, Hyperion, Ms. Marvel and many of the most powerful heroes would be always on the border for now. Even Deadpool had decided to stay here. His argument of staying was
" I wanted to hit the bucket for years now. Nobody loves me here so I better just die here while saving others. At least I will be remembered as a hero." He said this while impersonating Logan. It was fortunate that Logan wasn't here or else he would have been sliced by him.
But everybody could see that he was being serious about staying back. His life was immortal as he could never be accepted in the Kingdom of Death so it was better to have him as an extra measure.
John and everyone waited for the invasion of the hunters but it never came. As the days went by there was nothing that came out of the Wall. This was a relief for everyone. Thanos meanwhile was healthy enough to sit up straight so John had decided to get to his home with him.
The Harvester of theirs detached from the Harvester and left for his own universe including others who had arrived after the emergency. John could see everyone was agitated after what happened and this new potential weapon that they had in their hands.
Especially Tony. He seemed like he hadn't slept for a long time.
"Tony you alright?"
"I am great... I am better than ever.... Just this travelling is making me sick." Tony lied through his teeth and John could see it.
"How is the new suit coming along for the three of you?" John asked.
Yes, the three Tony's had decided to make three new armors for themselves. And the materials for this was provided by the 3 dead Celestials that the Avengers got their hands on during the Knull war.
They had been experimenting on that for the past few months and getting their minds together to make themselves an armor to battle their future war. And since it was powered by the body of Celestial, each of the armor must have all the Celestial powers that the body had once contained.
This project was taking too much time and energy for the trio but they had been working hard on this. This trip to the Wall made their conviction more firm that they needed to finish the project as fast as possible.
"John, you mentioned Sage Force. Is there a way that we can get access to it while keeping ourselves sane?" Tony finally pitched his idea that had been revolving around his mind for sometime from the moment he heard about it.
Tony had a feeling that if he didn't complete this armor before the war, there would be very less chance for him and his family to survive and this idea was on the minds of all the three Tonys.
