Kree Cruiser
In outer space, the Black Super, who arrived outside the atmosphere first, spent his time basking in the unfiltered Yellow Sun sunlight and waiting for Carol Danvers to pilot the Quinjet into space.
Because following an airplane in broad daylight while dressed in black is practically like a warning. "There's a fly here, watch out!"
Although human flight is not detected by ordinary radar, it can still be seen. Therefore, those Black Super take to the skies early and wait, rather than foolishly revealing their whereabouts.
In fact, it wasn't just Black Super waiting in space; the Kree pursuers had already arrived. They were stationary in satellite orbit, not yet taking any action.
To Black Super's surprise, the Kree only sent one spaceship, the size of which was unclear—whether it was considered medium or small among Kree warships, or even its classification.
Its shape is a boomerang-like curve, rather than the ideal shape for space travel as deduced by Earth's physicists, namely a spindle or a circle.
The Kree warships were designed this way because they wanted to arrange the largest number of engines horizontally to achieve greater thrust. In addition, they also had a high-tech artificial gravity device, so they did not need to rely on roller-like motion to simulate gravity.
Because they didn't know how the Kree ship's external surveillance or sensing devices were configured, the Black Super didn't dare get too close and attract the other party's attention.
Using high-orbit satellites as cover, Black Super simply observed the Kree ship as closely as possible.
The Kryptonian ' X-Ray Vision is still working, which is good news. The Black Super can detect approximately one hundred to one hundred and fifty humanoid beings moving about inside the ship.
Considering the manpower required to operate the ships and the necessary support personnel, it is roughly estimated that they can deploy one-half to one-third of their forces to carry out boarding operations.
In other words, Nick Fury and his crew will likely face more than fifty Kree soldiers, far more than in the movies. This doesn't even include Yon-Rogg's elite squad.
Perhaps because it didn't know the location of its target on Earth, the Kree warship didn't make any major moves. It only dispatched a single-person landing craft to the surface.
Shortly after the Kree landing craft landed, Carol Danvers ' Quinjet, like a high-thrust Rocket, escaped Earth's gravity and hovered somewhere.
Using the satellite as cover, the Black Super approached the vicinity of the Quinjet. Looking in the direction their aircraft was facing, a lurking spaceship shed its camouflage and appeared in outer space.
Based on the movie footage, this should be Mar- Will's laboratory, a Kree Cruiser.
Her shape doesn't resemble the boomerang-shaped warships piloted by the Kree pursuers; she's more like a long, cargo ship designed for large capacity. While not perfectly boxy, she's much larger.
The Quinjet entered the cruiser through an open opening shielded by a force field, while another Kree warship in the distance also made a move at the same time.
The Kree warships did not approach rashly, but instead released small attack aircraft and a larger subsidiary ship to assemble in space.
Judging from its appearance and purpose, that small ship was likely a troop transport ship, such as an assault landing ship.
However, they did not head directly towards the Kree Cruiser, but instead waited for the people on the surface to return and rendezvous.
Taking advantage of this lull, Black Super avoided the boarding gate and the bow section, which clearly had windows for viewing the outside, and approached the cruiser left behind by the Kree scientist from the hull side.
Fortunately, Kryptonian flight doesn't have any special sound or light effects, unlike Captain Marvel, who seems to want everyone to know she's there. The Black Super quietly pressed against the ship's hull, her fingers resting on the surface.
Using the principle of sonar echo, Black Super obtained the complete design of the U.S. military USS Missouri, Iowa class battleship.
In the vacuum of outer space, although there is no air as a medium for sound transmission, the vibration of solids still has a similar effect.
With the help of Kryptonian X-ray X-Ray Vision, and being familiar with this technique, Black Super quickly mapped out the complete structure of the Kree Cruiser in his mind. However, this was still a long way from deciphering the ship's design.
Unlike the USS Missouri, which shares a direct lineage with Earth's technology, this ship was built on a completely different technology tree. Black Super only knew the structure of most of the devices, but not their function, let alone the materials involved.
However, the function of some compartments can still be inferred from their contents.
The living quarters and cargo holds are the most obvious, not to mention the engine rooms and other facilities related to the ship's propulsion. The most numerous are the greenhouses with lighting, which grow a large number of plants that have never been seen on Earth before.
As for the Skrulls sheltered by Mar- Will on this cruiser, there were fewer than expected, only about a dozen. They might even be fewer than the number General Ross brought to Earth.
This situation is understandable. Without external supplies, the ship must be self-sufficient, and the duration of this process is unknown. Therefore, it is impossible for the ship to support a large population.
Now that Carol Danvers and the others are inside the ship, they have not only retrieved the Tesseract, but General Ross has also met with the Skrulls who are sheltering on board.
Upon seeing that thing, Black Super suddenly understood Nick Fury's possible reason for following up on this matter.
According to the timeline of Avengers: Endgame, Iron Man and Captain America returned to a U.S. military base in the 1970s, retrieved the Tesseract stored there, and obtained the Space Stone. This means that the Tesseract has always been in the hands of the U.S. military, not S.H.I.E.L.D..
Then in 1989, six years ago, Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. suffered an accident. Chief scientist Dr. Wendy Lawson died, and test pilot Lieutenant Carol Danvers went missing.
Although Nick Fury has said that the Air Force was covering up a billion-dollar loss, the real, unspoken, enormous loss was the Tesseract, which was seized from Hydra during World War II.
So Nick Fury probably already knew about this and planned to double-cross the Skrulls after they obtained the energy core of the Faster-than-Light Engine. And getting the item from the U.S. military to S.H.I.E.L.D.. is definitely a credit he earned.
Before the goods are in hand, there's no need to hastily eliminate potential allies, so he remains silent about his purpose.
He truly lives up to his nickname "Black Nick Fury." You might even find his heart and lungs as black as his skin.
The Space Stone has too many causal relationships; it's a hot potato that everyone's eyeing. Even if they managed to get their hands on it, it would be pointless without a good way to use it. So it's not a target for Black Super's group.
What he was actually looking for was the data storage device on this research laboratory ship. Kree technology was what Black Super was truly interested in.
People say Tony Stark isn't as smart as Rocket Raccoon because their starting points are too different. One started from an advanced cosmic civilization, while the other started from a surface-based civilization.
Although Black Super has been confirmed to be Kryptonian, he is an exiled orphan with no Krypton technology. He probably shouldn't expect to find a Fortress of Solitude waiting for him in the Arctic.
So, isn't a Kree scientist's knowledge base appealing?
What If...? this database contained more information about extraterrestrial civilizations, even if it was just general stuff like something from an elementary school history textbook, Black Super would still want to find out if there was any information about Krypton.
This isn't about wanting to go back and see what Krypton is really like in this universe. Rather, it's about wanting to know what weaknesses and flaws Krypton, as a loser in the power struggle, has revealed.
Moreover, the information obtained earlier was told orally by the Skrulls. Black Super also wanted to know if the Kree would have a different version of the story.
