As Natasha left, Nick Fury stood by the window, gazing at the sky outside the Helicarrier, lost in thought.
Based on the information provided by Natasha and the previously collected intelligence, Nick Fury discovered that the information about Charlotte Doyle needed to be updated. His level of danger and importance had now been elevated to the same level as that of Thor, the First Prince Asgard.
Charlotte Doyle is known to have two titles: Prime Merlinian and God of Ninjas, which represent two different powers.
Prime Merlinian: According to Tony's intelligence, Merlin is the ruler of the Magic World. He single-handedly created the Magic World and became the ruler of all Mage.
Nick Fury wasn't sure whether Merlin had found such a world, or whether it was a Magic World created by a legendary God, but either way, it represented a terrifying existence.
Merlin, a legendary figure, has his own legends in what is now United Kingdom, formerly Great Britain, including the legends of King Arthur, the Knights of the Round Table, and the wizard Merlin.
Although Thor's appearance showed him that the stories in myths and legends are not necessarily entirely accurate, they do have their prototypes.
It is almost certain that Merlin and the Mage were Earthlings, and one of Earth's native powers. Charlotte Doyle became the successor of this legendary being, becoming the first Prime Merlinian and taking over all of Merlin's legacy, including the Magic World and its Mage.
This reminded Nick Fury of the magic circle incident that had occurred in Taurus Square, which might have been closely related to Charlotte Doyle.
What bothers Nick Fury even more is that the Magic World once experienced a war of alien invasion. According to Tony, that battle was even more terrifying than the Battle of New York, with stronger, more numerous, and longer-lasting enemies, but it was also stopped by Charlotte Doyle.
Furthermore, that battle was a war launched by the Demon of Hell, using the Magic World as a springboard to invade Earth.
From Tony's information, Nick Fury learned that the mere fact that Prime Merlinian made Charlotte Doyle more powerful than the entire S.H.I.E.L.D.. combined.
Furthermore, Charlotte's ability to transport people between the two worlds made Nick Fury realize even more how powerful she was and how easily she could escape.
This is only one of his identities; his other identity is the God of Ninjas.
Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D.. initially thought this title was just a casual nickname, like Iron Man Blazing Hero, but now Nick Fury doesn't think so.
He speculated that this title, like that of Prime Merlinian, represented Charlotte Doyle's identity in the Ninja World. Perhaps Charlotte Doyle was not a descendant of a high-ranking official from the Land of Fire who was left on Earth, but rather the son of a god in the Ninja World or a successor of some god.
Otherwise, powerful ninjas, even the Hokage of Konoha and the Kage of other villages, wouldn't have ignored this title. After all, Charlotte's title is God of Ninjas, and all the ninjas of Konoha are under her command.
As for why the other ninja villages did not obey, Nick Fury speculated that Charlotte Doyle's identity was only fully recognized by Konoha of the Land of Fire for the time being, and other countries and ninja villages had not yet fully accepted it.
As for why those missing-nin didn't listen to the God of Ninjas, it's because once missing-nin, who would obey Charlotte's orders? Just like a traitor wouldn't obey the president's orders.
The ninjas currently appearing on Earth are displaying terrifying strength, easily overwhelming S.H.I.E.L.D..
The terrifying behemoth, the Energy Blast that fired was even more terrifying than Tactical Nuke, and Charlotte Doyle's ability to take the nuclear bomb away, all made everyone aware of the enemy's terrifying power.
It can be said that this war against aliens made S.H.I.E.L.D.. and even the entire Security Council aware that Charlotte Doyle had the ability to withstand nuclear attacks, and this was just the tip of the iceberg in the Ninja World.
Combining the power of these two forces, it's not hard to conclude that Charlotte Doyle is now just like Thor, an existence not to be trifled with.
Thor is still just a prince, a prince, the future heir, while Charlotte Doyle is already the one in control of the power.
As for whether Asgard or the Ninja World or the Magic World is stronger, Nick Fury doesn't care; both are burdens that S.H.I.E.L.D.. cannot bear.
However, Nick Fury speculated that Asgard was more powerful, given its renowned reputation throughout the universe and control of the Nine Realms, while Charlotte Doyle currently controlled at most two.
However, one thing is certain: Charlotte Doyle is an Earthling, Thor is an alien god, and Prime Merlinian has the mission of protecting Earth.
At this point, Charlotte Doyle had become someone Nick Fury needed to befriend at all costs and was someone he couldn't afford to mess with. As for the conflict between the two, he decided to put it aside for the time being.
If the other party wants to rule the Earth or becomes a supervillain threatening the entire planet, he will not hesitate to call on his off-site help, Captain Marvel.
As for Charlotte Doyle's current strength and influence, Nick Fury believes she is still inferior to Captain Marvel, after all, Captain Marvel is far more formidable.
Then, remembering the loss of the Tesseract, Nick Fury decided to exchange all the remaining Type I Energy Block at Charlotte Agency for resources. As for the Type-2 Energy Block produced, they would be used to continue developing weapons and enhance the strength of S.H.I.E.L.D..
Just then, Hill walked over and said, "Director, the Security Council meeting has begun."
Nick Fury nodded, then asked, "Has Phil Coulson been delivered to Tahiti?"
Hill looked at Nick Fury and said, "It's already been sent."
"Director, are you sure you want to launch the Tahiti Project against Coulson?"
Nick Fury looked at Hill and said, "We can't lose Coulson, can we?"
After speaking, Nick Fury walked to the conference room to attend a briefing session convened by the Security Council.
······
With Nick Fury's arrival, the Security Council meeting officially began.
At this point, a member of parliament spoke up and asked, "Where have the Avengers gone? What's their plan now?"
Nick Fury replied, "I'm not tracking their whereabouts for the time being. As for the others, in my opinion, they are entitled to leave."
At this point, a female senator asked, "But Natasha, Barton, Chen Haoran, and Brock Rumlow are all S.H.I.E.L.D.. agents. Don't you know their whereabouts?"
Nick Fury crossed his arms and then said, "They need a vacation too, don't they?"
"After all, they went through a major battle to defend the Earth."
Nick Fury knew exactly what these congressmen were up to, but he couldn't tell them even while they were on the Helicarrier, otherwise they would definitely transfer them away.
The senator asked again, "Where is the Tesseract?"
Nick Fury paused for a moment before speaking, "The Tesseract no longer belongs to us. It will leave us and receive the protection it deserves."
At this point, a male congressman spoke up, "Nick Fury, you have no right to make this decision."
Nick Fury shook his head and said, "It wasn't my decision. The Avengers didn't get the Tesseract back this time; it's not in our hands."
The senator asked, "You just let someone else take the Tesseract like that?"
"And there's also Loki, the war criminal who should be punished for his crimes."
Nick Fury looked at the people on the screen, then said, "I think Loki will receive the punishment he deserves."
"After all, this situation should be considered an application of the Extradition Treaty. Of course, the Council can also try to contact Asgard and ask them to send their Second Prince back."
Upon hearing Nick Fury deliberately bring up the identity of the Second Prince of Asgard, the Council members did not dwell on it, but instead asked, "What about the Tesseract?"
"He went to another place, which was also a god..."
Upon hearing that it was God again, the Council members were speechless.
At this point, the female senator spoke up again, "I don't think you realize the consequences of what you're doing. Just letting the Avengers return to society like this, they're all dangerous people."
Indeed, their fame not only spread throughout the world, but also resounded across the globe.
The male councilor nodded and said, "Isn't this exactly what we wanted?"
"One declaration, one guarantee."
However, the female councilor spoke up again, "The Avengers have finished talking, but what about those ninja forces that appeared here? They're not even Avengers. Are we just going to let them go like this?"
"And we won this battle, but what did we gain?"
To the senators, the Avengers were a team belonging to S.H.I.E.L.D.., and although they didn't seem to follow orders much, they were still valuable assets. But what about the other group? They were proving to be much stronger than the Avengers, and there were even more of them than the Avengers.
Moreover, war is merely a continuation of interests; since they are the victors, what about their interests?
For many members of the Security Council, self-interest is the more important thing.
Seeing the congressman's gaze shift from the Avengers to Charlotte Doyle, Nick Fury spoke:
"Compared to the Avengers, the ninja group has its own original organization, and they are much more powerful."
"But they are more willing to abide by some basic rules, and S.H.I.E.L.D.. and the ninjas have a history of cooperation."
The female councilwoman asked, "Did they leave too?"
Nick Fury replied, "No, they didn't hide their tracks; they returned to their original homes after the war."
"Can we win them over?"
"For example, by having them join S.H.I.E.L.D.., or by forming a team like the Avengers?"
Nick Fury shook his head. "It's difficult. I've been trying for years, but it's all failed. They prefer a collaborative relationship."
"As for the gains, we acquired a large amount of alien technology in this war."
"Believe me, this is a tremendous fortune."
"Their individual Energy Weapon, individual Chitauri Chariot, energy bombs, and so on all contain advanced technology. Absorbing and digesting this technology will greatly improve our capabilities."
"And all of these items were recovered by S.H.I.E.L.D.."
Upon hearing about the alien technology, the congressman nodded. If they were to absorb and transform those technologies, they wouldn't lose out.
The first male senator to speak said, "Nick Fury, I'm giving you a task: use every Var to win them over."
A thought flashed through Nick Fury's mind, and he said, "Congressman, I need financial support."
"Okay, we will approve a special fund for you. If you need anything else, you can apply through Pierce on the Council."
"Yes, Congressman!"
The meeting then ended and the video feed was turned off; Nick Fury walked out of the conference room.
At that moment Hill walked over with a tablet and said, "Sir, would you like to take a look at this?"
Nick Fury opened his tablet, and the video playing on it was none other than Eddie, transformed into Venom, killing Chitauri Soldier and rescuing people around the Charlotte Base.
Seeing yet another Superhuman appear, Nick Fury asked, "Who is this?"
Hill shook his head. "We don't have any information on him yet, but he was spotted not far from the Charlotte Base."
"But one thing is certain: this guy is neither Werewolf nor a ninja."
Nick Fury nodded, then said, "Create a file and gather intelligence on him."
"Also, investigate those who displayed extraordinary abilities during this alien war, to see if any of them slipped through the net."
"Yes, sir!"
"But the Avengers have all gone their separate ways, what will happen next?"
"Some people have even gone to very far places. What should we do in this situation?"
Nick Fury glanced at Hill and said, "They'll be back."
Are you really sure?
"Yes."
"Why?"
"Because I need them back."
Upon hearing the Director's reply, Hill remained silent for two seconds before turning and leaving without saying anything.
He didn't know how to curse Nick Fury, that pretentious guy, in his heart.
·······
On the other side.
It was afternoon, and on the lawn of the base, Charlotte Doyle, Thor Odinson, and Loki Odinson stood in the middle, with Loki wearing shackles made by Yamato, and Jane Foster, Tsunade, Ginny, and others surrounding him.
Thor glanced at Jane, waved, and said, "Wait for me!"
Jane Foster looked at Thor with reluctance, then nodded and said, "I'll wait for you..."
Charlotte Doyle glanced at the group, then said, "Let's go."
Then a blue Chakra energy appeared on the ground, instantly outlining the pattern of Merlin Array. After a flash of light, the three disappeared before everyone's eyes.
As Charlotte and her two companions left, everyone dispersed, leaving only Minato Namikaze behind, staring at the Merlin Array on the ground as if deep in thought.
