This world is truly absurd.
Nick Fury invited Uehara Naraku to join the Avengers Squad with a clear intention—he wanted to mix in a bit of S.H.I.E.L.D. inside the Avengers Squad.
Uehara Naraku was also straightforward.
Since Nick Fury wanted him to be a grain of sand, he certainly couldn't betray his superior's goodwill. He had to work harder, aiming to turn the Avengers Squad into a sticky mess.
"Now go track down Coulson and Special Agent Hill!"
Nick Fury put away Uehara Naraku's acceptance form for joining the Avengers Squad, added his subordinate's name to the Avengers list, and waved him away.
"Yes, Sir."
Uehara Naraku nodded seriously.
But when Uehara left the S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, he still felt a bit lost inside.
Starting today, he was going on vacation. Nick Fury gave him such a task to track down Coulson. Wasn't it really a prolonged holiday?
This kind of task...
Wasn't it just letting him, the perpetrator, go catch the hostage?
For Uehara Naraku, it truly was a long vacation starting.
"First..."
Uehara Naraku flipped open the world map on his phone, showing a bit of conflict on his face: "...Which place to tour first?"
According to the task given by Nick Fury, Uehara Naraku formulated a reasonable travel route, with the first stop going to the Arctic Ocean and the second stop directly to Germany...
Because the Arctic Ocean was where they salvaged Steve Rogers, while Germany was the place where Hydra once occupied, and Steve Rogers also fought there...
The world underwent a subtle change.
If it weren't for Uehara Naraku occasionally sending messages about Coulson and Special Agent Hill, Nick Fury really didn't know if that guy was on a global tour or actually tracking down Coulson...
Within half a year.
Steve Rogers attacked Hydra's base with his shield.
Uehara Naraku was tracking down Coulson and Hill.
Bruce Banner entered the battlefield, breaking several Hydra bases relying on the strength of Hulk, severely damaging Hydra's force at one point.
Uehara Naraku was still tracking down Coulson and Hill.
Tony Stark occasionally entered the battlefield, destroying many Hydra's terrorist affiliates with his advanced Iron Man suit.
Uehara Naraku was still tracking down Coulson and Hill.
If it weren't for Nick Fury getting occasional messages from Uehara Naraku, he'd suspect if Uehara Naraku was on vacation...
Of course, Nick Fury also suspected if Coulson and Hill, these two rogue agents, were falling in love, and maybe they even secretly got married?
Otherwise, why always appear at those tourist spots, really not a honeymoon tour?
However, Uehara Naraku wasn't entirely without achievements.
Once, the most recent time!
Uehara Naraku even reported he caught Coulson!
But just after Uehara Naraku reported to Nick Fury, Hill quickly rescued Coulson, which truly was a near miss...
Facing these two Advanced Agents, Uehara Naraku, who only excelled at fighting, truly wasn't their match...
However, Nick Fury didn't have time to focus on Uehara Naraku anymore.
Because Nick Fury had more important matters to deal with, he restored S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research on the Tesseract, attempting to utilize it to create weapons that could protect Earth.
Since the New Mexico State incident happened, Nick Fury learned about news from the legendary divine land of Asgard and understood the origins of Nordic mythology...
Thor, the God of Thunder.
This actual deity has descended.
It also meant Earth could no longer remain indifferent to potential alien invasions. Nick Fury was determined to activate the Tesseract plan.
For confidentiality purposes, Nick Fury didn't spill the beans about the Tesseract. Only Clint Barton and the agents stationed at the military base where the Tesseract was located knew about this.
Since ninety percent of the agents within S.H.I.E.L.D. were Hydra's spies, Uehara Naraku naturally knew about this too, and he was always waiting for this opportunity...
This opportunity wasn't far off.
Due to the urgency of possible alien invaders appearing, Nick Fury urged his summoned physicists to research how to activate the Tesseract's energy, leading to a spatial energy explosion point...
This behavior naturally drew the attention of certain cosmic beings, such as the one who once came to Earth—Evil God Loki. As a Mage raised by a Witch, Loki's natural sensitivity to energy easily allowed him to detect the spatial energy explosion point.
Loki once came to Earth.
Half a year ago, Loki descended from Asgard, flaunting before his brother Thor in New Mexico State, only to realize it was all Odin's manipulation...
During the struggle for the throne with his brother Thor, Loki became the stepping stone for their father Odin to hone Thor...
Loki's painstaking plotting was deemed child's play, infuriated into falling off the Rainbow Bridge, since then completely vanished...
However...
He definitely will return!
As a Prince...
Even as an adopted Prince!
Loki's heart was filled with an obsession for the throne!
In the universe beyond.
Among the bleak broken stars.
A young man stretched out his fingers, causing slight spatial ripples. His lips slightly curved with unconcealed joy for capturing these spatial energy explosion points.
It was Evil God Loki.
Recently, for reclaiming his throne, Loki connected with the battling race Chitauri in the universe. These Chitauri were actually not that powerful, but behind them stood a Cosmic Dominator... Thanos!
Anyway...
This group of Chitauri could at least serve as tools.
Except this group of Chitauri also regarded Loki as a tool.
"The Lord always wants the Tesseract..."
Chitauri's leader hovered beside Loki, speaking with a grave tone: "Now your opportunity has arrived. You mentioned earlier, the Tesseract is on a small planet, and this information has been verified by the Lord—the Tesseract has awakened..."
The recent frequent eruptions of spatial energy.
Standing behind the Chitauri, Thanos finally confirmed Loki's words were true. The Tesseract, which he most desired, had started awakening, and he wanted to acquire this spatial Divine Artifact!
"So..."
Loki's lips curled in a smile, slowly continued: "Finally agreed to cooperate with me? I want to become the king of Earth..."
Since he couldn't ascend to Asgard's throne yet, becoming the king of Midgard (Earth) could somewhat comfort Loki. Both Asgard and Midgard are among the Nine Realms of the World Tree...
"That planet is yours."
Chitauri's leader looked at Loki, a ghostly hollow face emitting a hoarse voice: "If you can bring back the Tesseract..."
"Don't worry."
Loki confidently nodded, slowly clenching his fingers like a true king, with his smile growing deeper.
"The power of a god is irresistible to those powerless mortals."
"The wisdom of a god is beyond imagining for those ignorant mortals."
"..."
Chitauri's leader was too lazy to respond.
Really, just about right...
"Alright, this is the Lord's gift to you."
Chitauri's leader handed a peculiar staff to Loki, speaking with a somber tone: "Better make sure everything goes as you said... If you fail, the whole universe won't have a place for you!"
