An all-powerful god should be able to kill everyone instantaneously and painlessly. If he can't then he isn't all-powerful. If he just decided it would be fun to drown them instead then he's not a benevolent god.
Oh I get it then... it's like Homer said...
"Well, Ak, it's because God is powerful, but also insecure, like Barbara Streisand before James Brolin." 😆

1. He has his reasons, god made plans for everything, he put a large amount of water vapour(But it wasn't a cloud, even science has proven this correct) around the earth in the beginning and it let people live longer because less rays were getting through from the sun, he probably planned to get rid of this layer of vapour to shorten human kinds life-span because he thought it was slightly too long, not forgetting that just making them dissappear wouldn't have gone with his plan.
2. Does it matter how he killed them? All the people on earth in those days(except Noah) deserved such punishment as drowning, they were very bad people. Just like when the tsunami hit, some christians were saved after being forced on to a hill by another religion because they wasn't aloud to have christmas in the town, all the people in the town was hit by the tsunami but the Christians were safe on the hill.
