At this moment, a portion of the Symbiote Venom within Eddie 'Eddie body materialized and resembled a head.
Eddie stared at the monster that had sprouted from his body and couldn't help but ask, "Just who are you?"
Venom didn't answer Eddie's question. Instead, he glanced at the four members of Team 8 who were on guard, and then said, "My name is Venom."
"We arrived here via Drake's spaceship."
"Due to special circumstances, Eddie and I became a compatible match, and I resided inside his body."
Hinata Hyuga looked at Venom and asked, "Won't your presence affect Mr. Eddie's life?"
Venom was silent for a few seconds, glanced at everyone, and then said, "No, but I need to replenish my nutrition and strength."
What is your purpose in coming here?
Eddie asked in surprise, "You guys?"
Venom replied, "Yes, we are."
"Blake's ship carried more than just me; there were three other Symbiote as well. Riot left the ship immediately after landing and was not taken back to the Laboratory by Drake's men."
After a few seconds of pause, Venom spoke, "You need to find Riot. If you don't find him, he might find Drake and then take Rocket."
"He'll bring back millions of Symbiote like me, and your planet will be destroyed."
Eddie exclaimed in surprise, "Millions?"
Tooth scoffed, "With your strength, even if you had millions, so what? Destroying the world is simply a pipe dream."
Venom glanced at Kiba Inuzuka and the puppy on his head, then said, "The stronger the host, the stronger we Symbiote will become."
Eddie looked at Venom and said angrily, "Are you trying to say that I hindered your strength?"
Venom glanced at the four ninjas around him and even the little dog perched on his teeth, then remained silent.
Although Venom didn't explicitly say so, the outcome was obvious.
Eddie complained, "Well, thank you so much for choosing me."
However, what Eddie didn't know was that Venom believed what suited him best was the best, and he felt comfortable being with Eddie, after all, their pasts were very similar.
Eddie wasn't successful on Earth either, and his Venom was a failure on the Klyntar.
As for the ninjas' powerful physiques, Venom felt a Dodo envious, but not much, since he hadn't seen the ninjas' true abilities.
Hinata Hyuga looked at Venom and asked, "How strong is Riot?"
"He's very strong. He's a powerful figure in our area, and he carries a large number of weapons."
Hinata Hyuga began asking Venom for information about the Riot.

On the other side.
In the Life Foundation's War Room, Drake watched a video recording showing Eddie being rescued while his men were beaten to the ground. He immediately shouted angrily:
"Who are these kids?"
"Who are these kids?"
Drake shouted twice in a row, then continued, "They dared to kidnap my target! I don't care who they are, I'll make them pay!"
"Security Minister, I don't care what the cost, find them immediately and bring Eddie back to me, dead or alive."
At this moment, a burly man in a security Uniform replied in a deep voice, "Yes, boss."
Just then, a researcher in a white lab coat rushed in and said to Drake, "Boss, Dora is dead, and the Symbiote died along with her."
Upon hearing the words of the people in front of him, Drake paused for a few seconds, then roared, "How exactly are you guarding us?"
He immediately ran towards the Laboratory where Dora was being held. When he arrived, Dora was already lying on the ground, lifeless, and the Symbiote inside her had crawled out, but it had also died.
Seeing the last Symbiote in his hand die filled Drake with rage, but he knew this was not the time to lose his temper.
He immediately picked up the walkie-talkie and said, "Security, Eddie must be captured alive. He can't die until a suitable host is found."
"Yes, boss."
Meanwhile, the Riot had already reached San Francisco, and the Life Foundation was on its way.
······
At that very moment.
Anne drove up to the Schuler Apartment, but the building was already completely cordoned off by the police.
Anne ran out of the car and went outside the police line to ask a policeman:
"Excuse me, officer, what's wrong?"
"I have to go in; my friend lives there."
The police officer turned to Anne and said, "All the residents have been evacuated. It's not safe for you to stay here."
"Don't stay outside, go home."
"The city is littered with corpses tonight."
Anne's mouth dropped open in shock. "A corpse?"
"Oh my god, Eddie, where are you?"
Anne then returned to her car, took out her phone, and called Eddie.
At this point, Venom had finished communicating with the members of the Ninja Squad and had returned to his body, while Team 8 was formulating their next battle plan.
Hearing the phone ring, Eddie took it out of his pocket and glanced at it.
Venom's voice echoed in his mind, "Who is Anne? Your heart is racing."
Who she is has nothing to do with you.
"Eddie, everything you do involves me. There are no secrets between us."
"Then you must know how powerful my boss, the God of Ninjas, is, right?"
Venom, who possessed Eddie's memories, remained silent for a few seconds before speaking, "Yes, he is powerful."
The phone rang again, and Eddie answered it after a moment's thought.
"Eddie, great, you finally answered the phone."
"Where are you? I need to see you."
Eddie glanced at the view around the rooftop. He didn't know where he was, so he spoke up.
"No, no, it's not convenient for you to come right now."
Anne, sitting in the car, said, "Eddie, tell me where you are, I'll come pick you up."
"A major incident happened in the city today; many people died. It's very unsafe outside, and you also have parasites in your body now. I need to take you to the hospital to get checked out."
Eddie glanced at the Ninja Squad still formulating their battle plan, then spoke to Anne on the phone:
"Anne, I don't know where I am right now, but my boss sent people to protect me."
"My safety is not a problem for the time being, so you don't need to worry about me."
The person on the other end of the phone asked in surprise, "Your boss?"
"Charlotte Doyle, the God of Ninjas, is now my boss, and the new company I'm working for is his enterprise."
"He sent people to protect me. This time I have evidence, and I'm going to expose Carl Drake's hypocrisy completely."
