NOVEL WEB Chapter 81: Chapter 81
In short, the Battle of New York seemed to be over, but the chaos it ignited was only just beginning. S.H.I.E.L.D. and HYDRA alike had no idea what Kurohane's intentions were, and they couldn't reach him at all! This situation left both organizations, typically so in control of information, completely in the dark regarding the mysterious "Angel's" intentions and whereabouts.
However, one person knew Kurohane's whereabouts, and that was the conscientious photographer, Tony Stark. Tony, seemingly fearless, began to extensively publish S.H.I.E.L.D.'s research content on the Cosmic Cube. After all, it was all failed experimental data, so publishing it wouldn't cause any problems. Furthermore, the Cosmic Cube had been taken by Kurohane, who had vanished along with Loki.
More importantly, who had time to care about Kurohane? There were alien corpses and weapons everywhere. These were tangible benefits people could see. Capitalizing on the chaos, it was better to grab more for oneself!
At that moment, the happiest person was Alexander Pierce, the head of HYDRA. In his opinion, Kurohane's loyalty was absolutely beyond doubt, even if he had become an Angel. Otherwise, HYDRA's existence would have been exposed long ago. If not for him stirring up such a commotion, how could things be this chaotic now? Their HYDRA wouldn't have such a good opportunity to fish in troubled waters and do dirty work along the way. They had managed to rake in a huge profit. As for the Cosmic Cube and the scepter in Loki's hand, they would eventually return to the HYDRA organization. The rest was Kurohane's disappearance. Ah, he disappeared for so long last time and was fine, so he must be fine now. Wasn't he allowed to find a place to rest after being tired from battle?
Things became difficult for Nick Fury. After Kurohane left the Helicarrier, Agent Hill and Agent Coulson removed his handcuffs, and he personally witnessed the nuclear bomb launch. He was the one who contacted Tony, his initial intention being for Tony to dismantle the nuclear bomb. But Kurohane had directly displayed abilities he didn't even know existed, granting him a divine miracle.
The main reason was that he didn't know someone on the World Security Council would be so brainless. Dropping a nuclear bomb on New York, coupled with Tony's widespread publicity, everyone knew what S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Council had done. Afterward, someone had to take responsibility. After a moment's thought, Nick Fury decided to blame Coulson, that was the duty of his subordinates. Because when the nuclear bomb was launched, he was still being detained by Kurohane! From this point alone, Nick Fury had to thank Kurohane!
He could just push Coulson out to fake his death and arrange a new identity for him. A minor plastic surgery, no, just a hair transplant, guaranteed no one would recognize him! Then, handing over the idiotic member of the World Security Council who ordered the nuclear bomb launch would quickly appease public anger. Afterward, he could casually reveal some gossip that everyone cared about, such as the story of the Angel of Justice and the Black Widow, the midnight meeting between the Angel of Justice and Iron Man, the mutual appreciation between the Angel of Justice and Captain America, and so on. In short, he had to squeeze out all of Kurohane's news value. By then, the general public would focus on Kurohane's private life, and no one would care whether someone doing research attracted Aliens, or whether their government dropped a nuclear bomb on their heads!
Nick Fury also understood at this point that Kurohane had been an Angel from the very beginning. No wonder he was so stubborn and uncompromising. He thought he was full of a sense of justice. It turned out he was an Angel who descended and regained his powers from the wizards of this world. This connection made sense, and Kurohane's identity was beyond doubt. May God bless the United States!
Besides, Kurohane wasn't the only abnormal being in this world. There were piles of alien corpses on the streets. Standing in front of him was a World War II veteran, and also the Prince of Asgard. Apart from the two key agents he found himself, even Dr. Banner desperately needed an explanation. Nick Fury felt his brain wasn't powerful enough, and his hair was falling out very quickly. Then, he changed his mind, realizing he had no hair, so it didn't matter.
When Kurohane woke up feeling dizzy, he found his spiritual energy had fully recovered. He hadn't expected to be able to sleep soundly all night because yesterday's events were too big. At this moment, people all over the world must be looking for him, and there was no reason they wouldn't have ransacked his apartment. To make it easier for these people to find him, Kurohane had even deliberately returned to his apartment to sleep.
Yet strangely, no one had come to his apartment looking for him. Did these people think Angels didn't need to sleep? There were many missed calls on his phone, from Nick Fury and Alexander, and from poor Coulson. There was a call from Natasha, but none from Tony. It seemed Teacher Tony was very busy last night. As for whether he was busy in bed or at the company, that wasn't something Kurohane could care about.
There was a message on his phone from Future Tony, saying that the Pym Particles were almost ready. Kurohane should come to San Francisco as soon as he was done, they wanted to return quickly.
When Kurohane arrived in San Francisco, the four Future Avengers were having breakfast. Hank Pym, along with his wife and daughter, were smiling happily and also served Kurohane a portion of breakfast. The matter was complicated to explain, but also quite simple.
In short, the four Future Avengers' attempt to steal Pym Particles failed, and Hank Pym, still agile in his old age, caught them. However, Captain America's face had a +50 buff already attached. After some explanation, Future Steve immediately brought Scott and Tony and honestly told Hank Pym about their return from the future. They stated that they only needed Pym Particles for now, which weren't free but a trade.
The content of the trade was to help Dr. Pym bring his wife back from the Quantum Realm. With Scott, an experienced hand, present, plus Future Tony's technical support, they successfully brought his wife, the first-generation Wasp, back from the Quantum Realm in one night. An overjoyed Dr. Pym called his daughter and informed her that he had saved her mother. Then he was scolded by his daughter, the second-generation Wasp, Hope, until she heard her mother's voice. Only then did she speed and run red lights all the way home. In short, the family was reunited and the world experienced a great reconciliation. Hank Pym said they could have as many Pym Particles as they needed, enough for everyone! Even if he handed them over to Tony Stark, his rival's son, it didn't matter. After all, even the fiercest competitor was not as good as his wife!
Kurohane listened to their story while eating, then elegantly wiped his mouth and looked at Hope, saying seriously, "Miss, you just said you ran red lights and sped all the way back, right? You have one day to turn yourself in at the police station. Pay the fine if necessary, go to jail if necessary."
Everyone: (shocked, eyes wide).
