This Is What You Call Professionalism

A white whirlwind swept through.

As Ben released the terrifying chill emanating from his body, he grabbed Stark by the back of his collar and lifted him up like a chick.

His blue wings unfolded, revealing his moth-like appearance.

"Let's go, Captain!"

Although Peter had never seen the Big Chill before, he had already guessed that it was Ben.

So he immediately spun out a Silk, grabbed Captain America, and brought him onto the Quinjet.

Ben then flung Tony upwards, scattering fragments of his armor like LEGO bricks.

Everyone departed in the blinding white, cold wind.

In fact, if Ben wanted to, the cold air inside him could freeze the entire base in an instant.

However, this would not achieve his goal.

If it's just to eliminate S.H.I.E.L.D.., anyone could easily become Four Arms, or any powerful hero could do that.

On the plane, everyone seemed rather listless.

Tony, who had just escaped from his armor, was panting heavily. He leaned against the wall and collapsed to the ground. The confined space had left him in a very bad state, and he looked more like he was having an anxiety attack. His face was deathly pale, and he couldn't utter a single word.

What should we do now?

Peter broke the silence.

Holding his phone, he said angrily, "We're all wanted by the authorities, and they're even accusing us of being Hydra!"

At this moment, Hydra's bounty notices for them have been issued.

Everyone present, even Tony, was mistaken for Hydra.

There's no way.

Hill shook his head as he flew the plane, saying:

"Pierce has taken control of the Security Council, and now he has completely taken back S.H.I.E.L.D.. We are essentially going against the entire nation, or worse, we have enemies all over the world."

Both S.H.I.E.L.D.. and the military are under the control of the Security Council, so even if Tony wanted Rhodey's help, the chances were slim.

Although only he could control Rhodey's armor, the other party was likely under strict control at the moment, and didn't even have a chance to get close to the armor.

"And us..." She turned her head, her gaze sweeping over everyone.

"Including this alien, there are only eight people."

"That's rude. I told you, my name is Big Chill," Ben said, glaring at her, clearly displeased.

None of this matters, okay?

Tony finally caught his breath a little better. "The important thing is," he said, panting, "Could you turn off the air conditioning? I'm freezing."

I didn't turn on the air conditioner.

Hill said.

Then, everyone's attention turned to Ben, whose every word exuded coldness.

"Big moth, gather your scent."

Ben:...

Then, Tony sat down in a chair, rubbed his shoulders, and said, "I need to get a new suit of armor. Your Galactic Plumbers should have the materials, right?"

Having learned from Ben that he was wanted, Tony already guessed that both Stark Industries and his own home were probably already under siege.

Since we can't go back there, the only option is to go to the Galactic Plumbers to forge armor and reactivate Jarvis.

He was actually a little worried about Pepper, but fortunately, considering the inherent risks involved in this matter, he had made preparations in advance.

I just didn't expect my armor to be banned.

"I will definitely install a device to prevent electromagnetic pulses!"

"But it's strange," Natasha looked at Peter curiously and asked, "Why is the wanted poster only for Spider-Man, instead of directly revealing your identities?"

Within S.H.I.E.L.D.., very few people know Spider-Man's and the Hacker's identities; in fact, it could be said that only people in Nico's group know.

However, Spider-Man and the Hacker's files were recorded.

After Pierce took over S.H.I.E.L.D.. again, he obtained Level 10 clearance, so he should be able to view it.

"Because the Galactic Plumbers has blocked all documents related to Spider-Man."

"Ben said hoarsely."

He hasn't been doing nothing at S.H.I.E.L.D.. these days.

He blocked and deleted all information about Spider-Man's identity; even if Pierce had level ten access, it wouldn't make a difference.

"Why?"

Hill countered with a question.

She was puzzled.

On one hand, the fact that the Galactic Plumbers could do such a thing without S.H.I.E.L.D..'s knowledge terrified her; on the other hand, she wondered why the Galactic Plumbers would help Spider-Man hide his identity.

"This..." Peter hesitated, then stopped himself from speaking.

Tony picked up the conversation and said:

"That's easy, because Spider-Man is a member of the Galactic Plumbers."

He shrugged.

Since Ben was a member of the Galactic Plumbers, it's not surprising that Peter, as Ben's cousin, was also a Galactic Plumbers.

"I thought it was an alien organization," Coulson said.

"In fact, both Earthlings and extraterrestrials are cosmic beings."

"Then let's go to Primus. There's someone there you'd never expect."

At this moment, Captain America finally spoke.

"Are we just going to leave the Hacker in the S.H.I.E.L.D.. base like that? He's Spider-Man too, his abilities should be about the same as Peter's. Although he has many inventions, he'll still be in danger if they use the EMP Bomb again, right?"

He simply couldn't accept the act of abandoning his teammates.

This reminded him of the scene when Bucky fell off the train years ago.

Another comrade-in-arms has left me.

What if the Hacker is in danger?

"How do you know no one else went to rescue him, Captain?"

Ben countered with a question.

"You mean other members of the Galactic Plumbers went to rescue him?" Captain America breathed a sigh of relief.

You'll see when you get there.

Ben offered no explanation, but simply blurred his physical form and left the plane.

High in the sky, the illusory Ben rushed into the clouds. The next moment, green light flashed in the clouds, and then a red creature swooped down from the clouds.

"Jetray!"

The Jetray are Aerophibian from the Aeropela. They are entirely red, with yellow horns extending upwards from their noses to both sides. Below their arms are yellow wing membranes, and on both sides of their shoulders are black Flash symbols.

They were named the Jetray because they looked very much like a type of fish called a scorpion.

With the ability to fly at extremely high speeds, even exceeding the speed of light, Ben Tennyson used the Jetray to traverse countless light-years in a short period of time.

At the same time, his eyes and tail can emit lasers.

Leaving aside Alien X, among all of Ben's Alien Hero, the Jetray are the fastest, even surpassing XLR8.

However, the reaction speed of the Jetray is not as fast as that of the XLR8.

After transforming into Jetray, Ben can fly faster than Quinjet.

Finally, the plane landed outside New York City, and the group, disguised, quietly returned to the Primus Building, led by Peter.

When they arrived, they found that Ben was already waiting for them at the company's main entrance.

"How come he arrived before us?"

Steve was very surprised.

"I told you, we should worry about ourselves instead of him." Tony took off his glasses and walked past Steve.

The group quickly entered Primus.

Ben pressed the button leading to the underground floor.

Coulson was still a little confused. "Weren't we supposed to be going to the Galactic Plumbers? Why are we at the Primus Building?"

At that moment, the elevator doors opened, and Nick Fury and Harry stepped out together.

Fury said:

"Because the Primus Building is the Galactic Plumbers Headquarters."

"Fury!"

Everyone exclaimed in surprise.

Only Nick Fury looked at Ben with a meaningful gaze and said, "You've been hiding it well, Ben Parker. I never expected you to be the head of the Galactic Plumbers on Earth. I never expected Primus to be the Galactic Plumbers!"

"It's just temporarily serving as a conference building."

Ben did not intend to fully develop Primus into the Galactic Plumbers.

Ultimately, Primus is still a company, and it will inevitably attract more and more people and attention in the future. As an organization, the Galactic Plumbers needs a more secretive base.

He thinks Mount Rushmore is pretty good, and that he'll hollow it out and use it as a base someday.

Seeing that Nick Fury was still alive gave Hill and the others considerable hope.

This Egghead Fury was, after all, their superior, and had quite a few legendary experiences. Although he had now lost his position as director of S.H.I.E.L.D.., seeing that he was alright still put their minds at ease.

At least Coulson is much more relaxed now.

He looked around inside Primus, then said curiously:

"I thought I'd see lots of aliens here."

"Forget about those aliens, let's think about what we need to do now," Nick Fury said.

In his view, the current situation is extremely bad.

After rescuing him, Harry didn't take Nick Fury back to Osborn, but instead secretly went to Primus.

Everyone knows now that Harry is the Green Goblin.

Hydra will definitely target Osborn in order to kill Nick Fury.

On the surface, they are still S.H.I.E.L.D.., so they won't do anything to Norman until they find Fury. The same applies to Pepper.

The group sat around a round conference table, Nick Fury looking worried.

"Right now they're just issuing warrants for our arrest, but once the aircraft carrier is completed, no one will be able to stop Hydra."

"Our upgraded aircraft carrier has ironically benefited them?"

Peter's eyes widened in surprise.

Tony shook his head and said, "Don't worry, the Hacker and I actually tampered with the aircraft carrier a long time ago. We just need to replace the program, and everything will be fine."

When did this happen?

Nick Fury stood up angrily and questioned him.

His remaining eye darted back and forth between Ben and Tony, a look of shock and hurt on his face, as if betrayed, as he roared:

You don't believe me?!

"I believe this is the end result you've ended up in."

Tony crossed his arms and sneered.

"You launched a Project Insight, listed me as the number one threat, prepared electronic pulse weapons to deal with me, and were ready to kill me anytime, anywhere. How can I trust you?"

"It's not my fault."

Nick Fury shrugged. "Actually, Project Insight was designed by Pierce, and I was on the assassination list too."

Then, he stopped dwelling on the matter and instead asked:

"You modified the algorithm?"

"That's right." Tony nodded.

Ben nodded and said, "I had previously investigated and found that the algorithm for Project Insight originated from Dr. Zola of Hydra, and he found that base on his own, destroyed it, and then replaced it based on the underlying code."

"Once the carrier starts moving..." Tony continued, picking up Ben, "They'll find that they're the ones being targeted."

"Clever!"

Nick Fury nodded first, then he asked in return:

"What if they bypass the algorithm and attack us or threaten the world directly through manual operations?"

"This..."

This was something Tony hadn't considered.

After all, he never expected the aircraft carrier to fall into Hydra's hands.

In his view, he should wait until he has upgraded the aircraft carrier, then immediately launch it to carry out the Anti-Project Insight and wipe out Hydra in one fell swoop.

Who would have thought that Hydra would strike first, before the aircraft carrier is even fully repaired?

However, he quickly came up with a solution.

"Then let's seize the aircraft carrier!"

Tony Stark stood up.

"Just the few of us?"

Natasha felt as if she had heard the most absurd joke in the world.

That's an aircraft carrier, not Quinjet.

The aircraft carriers carry an unknown number of weapons, and may even be equipped with nuclear weapons. When three aircraft carriers are hovering over New York, they could completely destroy the city in the blink of an eye.

How could they possibly recapture an aircraft carrier with their negligible strength?

But at this moment, Ben stepped forward.

"I can manage on my own."

"I was in charge of upgrading the aircraft carrier's propulsion system, and I remember the other systems very well. I can take control back."

In reality, control of the aircraft carrier was actually in Ben's hands.

If he wanted to, those Hydra agents wouldn't even qualify to board an aircraft carrier.

However, he doesn't intend to talk about it.

Aircraft carriers are currently the most powerful weapon in Hydra's arsenal. Once Hydra loses them, it will be like losing its fangs, and its threat level will be greatly reduced.

That won't do.

How can a hero be complete without a powerful villain to uphold him?

Without the threat of an aircraft carrier looming over New York, how could Norman's heroic figure, standing up to fight evil, have been so imposing?

Not to mention Norman, even Ben's character became more three-dimensional in Nick Fury's eyes.

He clapped his hands and said to Natasha:

"Look at you, Agent Romanoff, that's what professionalism is all about. Don't just think there's no hope and give up; instead, look for more solutions!"

Natasha rolled her eyes and said:

"You're right. Next time you have any plans, I'll expose your dirty secrets first, and then come up with a solution before you start causing trouble."

Nick Fury:???

"Even you've betrayed us?"

"No, I just think S.H.I.E.L.D.. is doomed, and you'll be in jail eventually. Then you won't be my boss anymore."

Natasha said, "Do you think I'll fuck you?"
