This meant that Earth would secretly step forward to facilitate a comprehensive strategic alliance between Asgard and the Kree Empire, two cosmic superpowers, with Earth joining as a member afterward.
Although once it was done, Earth's position in the alliance would be dispensable, and the two great powers would likely look down on it. Still, Earth could borrow their prestige as a tiger's skin—in other words, cling to their thighs.
And these two thighs had been chosen well. Asgard was a monarchy, and the Kree Empire was also a centralized state. Such nations had one typical trait: they cared deeply about face. Never mind what Earth was like or whether they thought highly of it; it was, after all, an ally they had acknowledged. Whoever dared touch it would be slapping them in the face. See if I don't wipe out their whole family!
Asgard was one thing, but the Kree Empire was the sort to stir up trouble even when it had no justification. So long as a cosmic power had normal intelligence, it would inevitably wonder whether the Kree Empire had deliberately put out bait by taking such a weak primitive planet as an ally. Were they hoping someone would attack Earth so they could use the opportunity to start a war and annex their territory?
Therefore, from this point on, the nations of the universe would surely keep Earth at a respectful distance. And even if some nation powerful enough to challenge the two great powers and wage war against them emerged, it would probably go directly after the real targets instead of making trouble for Earth.
After all, Earth was neither a strategic stronghold nor a resource-rich planet. It was not even worth calling a scrap of meat. As long as they could overthrow the two
