Ninja Tools and the Operation
When Coulson heard that the Vibranium was ready and could be traded at any time, his smile seemed to become even more genuine.
"Thank you Temari. We will come back in a week to complete the transaction."
Temari nodded, without saying anything more.
At this moment, Coulson placed another Suitcase he had brought with him on the table and opened it.
The box was opened, and inside was none other than a Kunai made of Adamantium.
"Temari, this is Kunai made of Adamantium. It is said to be incredibly effective in the hands of a ninja, comparable to Chakra Metal."
"Besides Vibranium, I wonder if Temari and the Sunagakure behind her need this type of Adamantium."
Upon hearing Coulson's words, Temari took out Kunai from the box, held it in her hand, slipped her index finger onto the ring at the end of the Kunai, and twirled it in her hand.
She then grasped the Kunai and poured Chakra into it, and the Kunai in her hand transformed into a Chakra short sword. Because Temari's Chakra is wind-attribute, the wind-attribute cutting ability on the Chakra short sword was clearly revealed, and it looked extremely powerful.
Temari did not wield the Chakra short sword in her hand to unleash the power of the Ninja Tools. Instead, she stopped Chakra output, and as the Chakra disappeared, the Kunai's figure reappeared.
Temari stopped playing with the Kunai and put it back in the box.
Temari looked at Coulson and asked softly, "Do you sell the formula for this metal?"
However, Temari knew that this metal was not like the extraterrestrial ore that Vibranium. Adamantium and Secondary Adamantium were products developed by the United States military and alloys prepared using specific methods.
Upon hearing Temari's words, Coulson didn't ask what price she would offer, but instead shook his head and said, "Ms. Temari, we only sell metals; we have no intention of selling the formula."
Upon hearing Coulson's words, Temari shook her head regretfully and said, "That's a real shame. It seems we can't reach an agreement in this direction."
"Mr. Coulson, you should prepare the strange items you mentioned earlier. Perhaps their existence will be more attractive to us."
Hearing Temari say this, Coulson felt a little disappointed. Something that was so attractive to Rogue Ninja seemed to be of little interest to Temari of the Sunagakure. She seemed to prefer Energy Block and Vibranium.
"In that case, I'll go back and apply to the bureau to try and bring something that Ms. Temari would be interested in."
"As for this Kunai, consider it a gift for my visit."
Hearing Coulson say that, Temari didn't refuse. "In that case, I'll accept it."
What Coulson didn't know was that Hydra had already made a deal with the Sand Ninja, whether it was Adamantium or Secondary Adamantium.
With a channel secured, Temari naturally stopped caring about Coulson's Adamantium and became more interested in the rarer Vibranium.
Coulson thought for a moment, then said, "Ms. Temari, I wonder if you could investigate and verify some information about Yakushi Kabuto? The more detailed the better."
Upon hearing Coulson's words, Temari thought for a moment but did not refuse. Instead, she said, "This requires our ninjas to enter the Land of Fire to conduct investigations. The reward for this mission is quite substantial."
"The amount of Energy Stone needed is not small, after all, the other party is not Rogue Ninja from the Land of Wind."
Upon hearing Temari's words, Coulson immediately thought of Charlotte Agency. With Konoha in the Land of Fire behind them, wouldn't it be much more convenient and faster to investigate Yakushi Kabuto's information?
After thinking it through, Coulson still asked, "How much reward do you need for the mission?"
Temari held up two fingers and said, "200 Energy Block. This is just the initial price. If we encounter any ninja battles during the investigation, the price will increase."
Coulson was taken aback; he hadn't expected the cost of investigating in the Ninja World to be so high.
"I'll apply to the bureau for that."
Temari nodded. She had given this price a lot of thought. Investigating ninjas in the Ninja World, even for Rogue Ninja, is at least a B-rank mission. How could it be cheap?
After obtaining the information he wanted, Coulson did not linger. He took the two Puppet dolls and left, heading towards S.H.I.E.L.D.. to report the information he had gathered to his Director.
With Coulson gone, it was already night, Temari closed the Sunagakure Puppet Shop for the night.

Jotunheim.
At this moment, Thor was resting in the Jotun Royal Court, while Charlotte was refining Chakra. Almost a day had passed since the end of the battle.
Just as Charlotte was cultivating, she sensed a surge of Chakra energy approaching; it was Madara Uchiha returning.
Charlotte stopped her training, and as soon as she opened her eyes, she saw Madara Uchiha standing in front of her.
"Not bad, you haven't neglected your cultivation."
After giving a word of praise, Madara Uchiha casually tossed a small package over.
Charlotte took the package that Madara Uchiha threw to her, somewhat puzzled, and asked, "What's inside?"
Madara Uchiha his arms, seemingly unconcerned, and said, "I see you're collecting this on the battlefield; it must be of some use to you."
"I went out and killed a group of Summoned Beast, and only found this item among a limited number of them, so I brought it back to you."
Charlotte asked with some surprise, "Summoned Beast?"
"Yes, those are the guys we fought today, aren't they Summoned Beast?"
"Isn't this their secret psychic sanctuary?"
"I looked around, but there wasn't a single human being here."
Upon hearing Madara Uchiha's words, Charlotte finally realized that Jotunheim indeed had no humans; it was inhabited by creatures such as Frost Giant and Mountain Giant, as well as other creatures with ice and earth attributes.
However, in Madara Uchiha's eyes, all these non-human beings were categorized Summoned Beast.
Charlotte didn't explain the difference between the two to Madara Uchiha, which was taken as an admission. She opened the package in front of her, which contained ten Heart of the Earth.
However, Madara Uchiha somehow found ten commander-level Mountain Giant and killed them all.
Looking at what she had in her hand, Charlotte said gratefully, "Thank you, Madara!"
Madara Uchiha didn't seem to care about Charlotte's thanks, and simply nodded in response.
Madara Uchiha then realized that his time there was running out and he would soon return to his own world, so he gave Charlotte some pointers on how to use the Mangekyō Sharingan.
Madara Uchiha was somewhat disappointed that Charlotte had not yet developed her own Susanoo.
Only Susanoo is the true power of the Uchiha, a power that the Charlotte believe to be far greater than Amaterasu and Tsukuyomi, which Uchiha possesses through her eyes.
With Madara Uchiha's guidance, Charlotte became more proficient in using the Sharingan and Mangekyō Sharingan, and also gained some additional techniques for using the Sharingan.
As the 24-hour period came to an end, Madara Uchiha transformed into starlight and vanished into the sky.
Charlotte greatly admired Madara Uchiha, the head of the Uchiha Clan. This 24-hour Ninja Card experience allowed him to feel Madara Uchiha's charisma up close.
At the same time, Charlotte made a decision in her heart: she would definitely bring the other person into her world if she had the chance, as this was a powerful being.
With Madara Uchiha gone, Charlotte continued her training. Before the arrival of the Asgard army, she and Thor could only train and spar here.

S.H.I.E.L.D.. - Triskelion.
After completing the final combat power test, Yakushi Kabuto returned to his room.
Back in his room, Yakushi Kabuto didn't seem to care much about his experience at S.H.I.E.L.D.. that day. He had expected to be interrogated or coerced, but it seemed that they had no intention of using such methods.
Looking at the three boxes in the living room, Yakushi Kabuto didn't continue examining them. Instead, Yakushi Kabuto carefully checked his room and discovered a number of surveillance devices.
Yakushi Kabuto casually disassembled all the surveillance equipment, put it in a bag, and threw it outside. After doing all this, Yakushi Kabuto returned to his bedroom and lay down to rest.
As for the contents of the three boxes, Yakushi Kabuto had no intention of studying them at the moment and simply left them in the room.
The lights were still on in Nick Fury's office. He wasn't resting; instead, he was reviewing Yakushi Kabuto's report. The computer screen showed the entire process of Yakushi Kabuto dismantling the camera and leaving it outside the door.
"It seems such subtle tactics couldn't escape the ninjas' detection. Their counter-surveillance and counter-eavesdropping awareness is quite strong."
Looking at the report in his hand, which contained a comprehensive analysis of Yakushi Kabuto and an evaluation of him, Nick Fury was astonished. This was merely a Rogue Ninja without even a ninja ranking, yet he possessed such terrifying strength.
Those ninjas from other great ninja villages will be terrifying beings.
Nick Fury glanced at the Chakra Detection Center, which indicated a D-rank Chakra energy fluctuation.
Nick Fury didn't know if the other party was hiding their strength well, or if they really only had this much power.
This level of energy fluctuation is far superior to even the Genin who have just graduated from the ninja village in Charlotte's group.
Just as Nick Fury was reviewing the documents, Coulson returned and knocked on Nick Fury's office door.
Nick Fury pressed a button on the table, the door opened automatically, and Coulson walked in.
Upon seeing that it was Coulson, Nick Fury asked, "How is it?"
Coulson stood before Nick Fury and replied, "There is indeed a group of Rogue Ninja in the Ninja World."
"I've learned from Temari at the Sunagakure Puppet Shop that they do indeed live in the Ninja World, on a different planet from Earth."
"The other party didn't hide anything from us about this question, but they were somewhat surprised that we knew the answer so quickly."
"As for Yakushi Kabuto's identity, the other party didn't know either. Temari and the others didn't pay any attention to a Rogue Ninja."
"However, Temari said that if they were willing to pay a generous reward, they would be willing to send someone to the Land of Fire to gather information about this Rogue Ninja, and the results wouldn't take too long."
"However, I think it would be better to Charlotte Agency handle this matter. After all, they have the backing of Konoha in the Land of Fire, so it would be easier for them to investigate Rogue Ninja in their own country."
"As for Adamantium, they still aren't very interested, unless they're selling the alloy's formula. On the contrary, they have a deep interest in our 084 Object."
"The transaction for the Physical Enhancement Serum is also without problem; the other party indicated that it can proceed at any time."
Nick Fury nodded upon hearing Coulson's answer.
"It seems that Yakushi Kabuto wasn't lying to us; all the information he provided is true. The Ninja World, the Five Great Nations, and the Rogue Ninja are all real."
"Do the ninja from these villages have any opinions on the strength of these Rogue Ninja?"
After thinking for a moment, Coulson said, "Based on my observation at the time, Temari had a lot of disdain for Rogue Ninja."
"According to her account, the difference in strength between Rogue Ninja was enormous, practically worlds apart."
"Unless they are extremely famous, most of them probably can't even beat the students at their Ninja Academy."
Upon hearing Coulson's reply, Nick Fury tossed the report in his hand to him.
"Take a look at the Chakra fluctuation detection above."
Coulson saw the large "D" above and said with a hint of helplessness, "It seems the Rogue Ninja we recruited is one of the 'lower-tier' types they were referring to."
"Director, given this situation, do we still need to use the Energy Block to investigate his detailed information?"
Nick Fury thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice, "Investigate. Even if he's weak, we need to investigate his detailed information in the Ninja World."
"If he is an utterly wicked person in the Ninja World, then we can take appropriate measures."
Coulson nodded. Since his Director needed to investigate, he would issue a commission, instructing Konoha, which was behind Charlotte Agency, to conduct a thorough investigation and also let them know that they knew that the Ninja World they lived in was on another planet.
"Coulson, now that Yakushi Kabuto has joined S.H.I.E.L.D.., would you consider taking on the role of the supervisor?"
"Hill recommended you to be his supervisor, what do you think?"
Upon hearing Hill recommend him as Yakushi Kabuto's supervisor, Coulson shook his head and said, "Director, as you know, I haven't been mentoring any new recruits since the Akira incident."
Nick Fury wasn't surprised by Coulson's refusal, and then said, "Think about it, or you can recommend someone suitable."
"Yes, Director, I will recommend a suitable person."
