On S.H.I.E.L.D.'s exclusive Helicarrier, Kurohane stood with his arms crossed, glaring unhappily at a somewhat awkward Nick Fury. Dr. Bruce Banner and Natasha Romanoff sat on nearby stairs, watching the commotion, and Captain America Steve Rogers, with his muscular physique, was also there.
Banner had been brought back from India by Natasha, after the incident on Broadway Street last time. Banner had been hiding in the slums of India, helping the poor there treat diseases. But in reality, his whereabouts had always been under S.H.I.E.L.D.'s surveillance, they had simply chosen not to disturb him.
Now the Cosmic Cube had been stolen by Loki, who also used the energy of the Mind Stone to take over Clint Barton and Dr. Erik Selvig. The Avengers initiative, which was initially not very mature, was forced to be implemented immediately. Steve also rushed into action, he had been dug out of the Arctic glacier. Thanks to the strong vitality provided by the Super Soldier Serum, even after being frozen for 70 years, he still retained his life force. It felt like a long dream, after waking up, he found the world completely different from 70 years ago. Then he was tricked into S.H.I.E.L.D. by Nick Fury and mysteriously boarded this Helicarrier. Then he discovered that the world had truly changed, even aircraft carriers could fly in the sky!
As soon as he boarded the ship, he saw Kurohane looking like he was about to eat someone. Steve even thought he was superior to Nick Fury! Only after Kurohane greeted him very warmly and introduced himself did he remember who Kurohane was. His fan, Agent Coulson, had told him that there was now an agent in S.H.I.E.L.D. who was even more righteous than him. They would definitely become good friends! Now it seemed Coulson truly hadn't lied!
The distance between Kurohane and Nick Fury grew closer and closer, eventually their foreheads were almost touching. Generally, when two people were this close, they would either fight or kiss!
"So when you were researching the Cosmic Cube, you accidentally opened a portal and summoned Loki," Kurohane pressed, his voice sharp. "And the result was that a lot of you couldn't beat him alone, and he even took the Cosmic Cube?"
"Pretty much," Nick Fury replied, his expression flat.
"Loki also has a mysterious scepter that can control others, it directly controlled Clint and Dr. what's-his-name?"
"Dr. Erik."
"Alright, who is directly responsible for this matter?"
"I am."
"Then I can act." Kurohane immediately unzipped his suit, pulled his weapon from under his armpit with his right hand, and pressed it against Nick Fury's head. Then he took out handcuffs with his left hand and directly cuffed Nick Fury!
"Nick Fury, I'm arresting you in the name of a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent. You have the right to remain silent," Kurohane stated firmly, his voice echoing with conviction. "But anything you say will be used as evidence in court!"
Banner was surprised, Steve was bewildered, while Natasha just resigned herself. The two newcomers were seeing a tough guy like Kurohane for the first time, someone who dared to point a gun at his superior! Especially a World War II veteran like Steve, in the military, if a subordinate dared to point a gun at his leader, they would be shot dead by others on the spot, that was rebellion!
But if you really thought about it carefully, Kurohane was not wrong at all in this matter. This guy was really too righteous! Steve had personally witnessed the terrifying power of the Cosmic Cube, Red Skull could use it to make powerful weapons 70 years ago. Such a dangerous item should forever remain at the bottom of the Arctic Ocean, let alone be brought out for further research! So Steve was actually quite secretly pleased, that dark-skinned guy deserved a lesson!
But Natasha was already used to it, she knew this day would come for Nick Fury. Moreover, Natasha felt that Kurohane had restrained himself this time, perhaps because he was studying magic, and his aggression wasn't as severe. Because this wasn't the first time Kurohane had pointed his gun at Nick Fury, previously, he would act on minor issues. Now Nick Fury had caused such a big disaster, she even thought Kurohane would directly shoot and kill Nick Fury!
In fact, it wasn't just the three of them who were surprised, there were also a large number of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents around them! Because Kurohane had acted directly in the Helicarrier's control room! But when they saw that it was Kurohane, the famous fool in S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra, everyone quietly turned their faces away, pretending not to see anything!
The people from S.H.I.E.L.D. thought, they couldn't possibly provoke Kurohane, this jinx, he dares to arrest the Director, so what are they? The people from Hydra thought, this current method of infiltration is really different from ours. No wonder he can get along with the Director, let's try to get Kurohane to give a secret lecture someday!
Nick Fury had a headache looking at the silver handcuffs on his hands, but he also sighed inwardly that Kurohane seemed to have become much gentler. According to his own thoughts, Kurohane should have shoved the gun barrel into his mouth.
"Researching the unknown always has its price, that's why I brought Dr. Banner," Nick Fury explained, his voice calm despite being handcuffed. "He is the person in the world who understands gamma rays the most, and the Cosmic Cube is a powerful source of gamma rays. As long as he is willing to help, we can definitely find..."
Boom——!
A bullet grazed Nick's scalp and whistled past, hitting the wall and sending a shower of sparks! Everyone simultaneously entered combat readiness and almost all agents drew their weapons. Then, upon receiving a fierce glare from Kurohane, they obediently put their weapons away, pretending nothing had happened!
Banner stood up from the stairs, then noticed Natasha pulling his sleeve. She said a few quiet words to him, then he obediently sat back down. The words spoken were, "It's fine, Kurohane knows what he's doing."
However, Steve felt something was wrong, he walked to Kurohane's side and said hesitantly, "Kurohane, aren't you going too far? Let's talk it out, don't shoot!"
But Kurohane didn't even look at Steve, only staring at Nick Fury with a cold gaze. "One by one, you made a mistake, so you have to take responsibility. If you need to be suspended, then be suspended, if you need to go to court-martial, then go to court-martial. Even if the Cosmic Cube is eventually found, your crimes still exist. As for how the judge decides, I don't care, but right now you don't have the qualifications to stand here and give orders, understood?"
Steve was awestruck, Totally awesome! If S.H.I.E.L.D. was full of people like Kurohane, why worry that the United States wouldn't be great again!
Nick Fury wanted to refute Kurohane's point of view, but seeing the smoking gun barrel, he wisely chose to remain silent, then was escorted by Kurohane and thrown into a cell.
"Kurohane, it's fine that you locked the Director in a cell, but now no one is in charge," Coulson scratched his head, looking a little agitated, and for some reason had a bad feeling.
"Listen to whoever has the highest agent rank. Who has the highest agent rank here?" Kurohane asked.
"I do." Coulson answered, without thinking.
"From now on, you're the commander. If anything goes wrong, you're to blame!"
Coulson was shocked, "Huh?"
