Chapter 116 - Avengers Assemble

Inside the highest-level conference room of S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters, Nick Fury was holding a meeting with the five World Security Council representatives.

"Nick Fury, you're playing with fire! That big green monster is not someone you can control. He'll only bring disaster," Malik complained, clearly displeased with the action report Fury had submitted.

Nick Fury stared straight at the camera, unwavering.

"Sir, have you ever fought a war? Right now, Loki has declared war on us. We must retrieve the Tesseract as soon as possible, even if it means taking some risks."

The other representatives understood the gravity of the situation. After a moment of thought, one of them asked:

"What about Asgard? Will they come as well?"

"No. Thor, as the heir to Asgard's throne, maintains a friendly stance toward Earth. This whole thing looks more like a second prince staging a coup, failing, and now trying to switch kingdoms," Fury explained vividly.

Finally, Malik set down his pen and asked solemnly:

"Can you take responsibility for the actions of the Avengers, Nick Fury?"

"Of course."

Agent Coulson was temporarily overseeing a mess of S.H.I.E.L.D. operations. After handling several matters, he dialed Natasha.

"Natasha, stop playing around. Things are more urgent here. We need you back—now."

At that moment, Natasha was holding her phone in one hand—and the target's throat in the other.

"What? I haven't even started yet. How bad is it?"

"Natasha… Barton's been mind-controlled."

Coulson knew exactly how deep Natasha and Clint's friendship ran.

"Give me a minute."

She ended the call, dropped both the phone and the target, then pressed the handle on her Red Room compression-trigger device.

Crunch!Rip!

Two henchmen were instantly crushed into meat paste by the Widow's Scissor Hold. The gore splattered across the old man's terrified face.

Natasha patted his frozen cheek.

"Talk, and go to prison… or I turn you into paste. Your choice."

After cleaning up the situation, she picked her phone back up.

"What exactly is the mission?"

"Director Fury wants you to bring in the big guy. The green one."

"…Oh, for God's sake."

In rural India, Dr. Bruce Banner, working as a barefoot doctor, watched a little girl sneak out his window and muttered:

"I really should have charged first."

Dressed in traditional Indian clothing, Natasha emerged behind him.

"Dr. Banner, did you choose India so you could learn yoga?"

Ever since becoming the Hulk, Banner feared no one but himself—feared accidentally hurting others.

"Who are you? And what do you want from me?" Banner's tone was calm.

Natasha showed him a photo of the Tesseract on her phone.

"I'm Agent Natasha Romanoff of S.H.I.E.L.D. Director Fury wants your help finding this."

"What is that thing?" Banner studied the picture.

"The Tesseract—an object with immense supernatural energy. But it's been stolen. Our only clue is the faint gamma radiation it emits. You're the expert."

Natasha sat down casually.

Banner lowered the phone, looked her straight in the eyes."And if I don't want to help?"

"I'm confident I can persuade you," Natasha raised her chin proudly.

"And what if the 'other guy' doesn't want to go?" Banner slammed his hand on the table.

Natasha tensed instantly, instinctively grabbing the Widow wrist device hidden beneath the table.

Banner raised both hands, indicating he was only teasing."Hey, hey—easy! Just a joke. That device?"

Natasha exhaled and slowly lowered it.

"Rented. And I can assure you S.H.I.E.L.D. has no intention of harming either you or the Hulk."

"…Maybe."

Bruce looked at the Tesseract photo again—then agreed.

That's just how good-hearted he was.

"Sir, Agent Coulson requests a call," JARVIS said inside the suit.

Tony walked into the newly built Stark Tower as he replied:

"What did Zed's A.I., Citrine, say? Oh right—let me decide if it should be forwarded to Mr. Zed. JARVIS, you can do that too."

"Sir, I doubt that tactic will work."

And JARVIS was right.

Coulson hacked directly into Stark Tower and rode the private elevator up to Tony and Pepper.

Tony sighed bitterly.

"Seriously? You're hacking my company now?"

"Mr. Stark, the situation is urgent." Coulson handed him a tablet.

Tony didn't want to take it—he had planned a quiet evening with Pepper. But Pepper, sensible as always, accepted it first and handed it to Tony with a sharp glare.

Tony rolled his eyes and started reading.

"I think I'll move to Washington tomorrow—no, tonight," Pepper muttered as she saw footage of the Hulk in battle.

Tony held up the 3D projection of the Tesseract, suddenly falling silent—lost in memory.

While Natasha and Coulson were busy, Fury personally approached Steve Rogers.

Steve punched a sandbag repeatedly and asked without looking back:

"It's late. What do you want? A mission?"

"Yes. We need Captain America to stand up and save the world again." Fury gave him the mission file.

Steve stopped the moment he saw the Tesseract on the first page.He lifted his head.

"Sir… I slept for seventy years. When I woke up, the whole world had changed. Even New York isn't the New York I knew. Yet somehow you people haven't changed at all."

Fury knew exactly what Steve meant, but he had his own views.

"I know what you're thinking. But we can't refuse to act out of fear, right?"

Steve nodded. He understood at least that much.

"What do I need to prepare?"

"You need to catch up. The world changes fast."

"I've seen plenty of weird things."

"I bet ten bucks you're wrong."

Captain America, Bruce Banner, and Natasha Romanoff all arrived at the S.H.I.E.L.D. Helicarrier on the Quinjet—everyone except the late Tony Stark.

But they weren't the only ones who showed up.

A S.H.I.E.L.D. agent with a camera appeared out of nowhere.

"An agent with a camera? Interesting."
