Just as Black Super found the suspected storage device and was about to disassemble it for inspection, the ship's power suddenly became unstable, with some devices even tripping and shutting down. Even the mainframe in front of them was not spared.

However, Black Super noticed that one of the advantages of Kree Technology was that restarting the mainframe did not affect the operation of certain functions. At least the life support system and artificial gravity did not fail on the spot, preventing everyone from dying inside the ship.

However, some devices that require a large amount of energy to operate may be shut down as a result.

Looking towards Carol Danvers ' location, Captain Marvel as expected.

In her Binary Form, she's basically at the ceiling of superhero power in the Marvel Universe, as long as you don't compare her to the Celestials or those on the same level.

Now, all she needs to do is get used to this power and master it, and she can roam freely throughout the universe.

The real problem is that this tomboy's IQ is questionable; she's too trusting.

Whether in comics or movies, this is also true of Carol Danvers in Ms. Marvel. She relies entirely on brute force to overcome all conspiracies and schemes.

In short, this guy easily becomes the center of attention wherever he goes, which goes against the code of conduct for those Black Super. So it's best to stay away from him.

I don't want to jump into the X-Men's mess, so there's no reason for me to run off and become a cosmic police officer with Captain Marvel.

As for the absurd reason of insisting on going into space to uphold justice, it's because the film's writers are afraid that the Captain Marvel causing trouble on Earth will be killed by Captain Marvel before the corresponding superheroes can even appear, leaving the main hero with no chance to shine.

Furthermore, a crucial piece of information about Krypton obtained from the Skrulls is that the Krypton fleet is affected by the color of the local starlight in the galaxy, thus altering its temperament.

Even though he doesn't know if he'll lose his superpowers, Black Super will stay put on Earth and just be exposed to the Yellow Sun. Otherwise, if he wants to go to a galaxy to uphold justice, he'd have to check the color of the local stars first, which is too much trouble.

As for the person he absolutely had to protect on this trip, it was Nick Fury, whose heart was likely as black as his skin. After all, he had to help him resolve the trouble caused by the Skrulls, and as an insider within S.H.I.E.L.D.., he was the most suitable person.

However, now that he's holding the Flerken Goose, it's like he's holding the strongest talisman, and it seems like there's no problem at all.

Although the Flerken was unreliable, sometimes swallowing enemies whole without even seeing them, their trump card, combined with the stolen Kree weapons, was enough for them to escape...

It was only then that Black Super remembered that the reason he had entered the ship was because the Kree's small combat aircraft were guarding the outside.

Given the design of the Quinjet, could it possibly dogfight so many enemy aircraft in space? In the movie, only one aircraft, piloted by a member of the Kree Starforce, managed to catch up.

Therefore, this is very likely the obstacle that Nick Fury and his companions will face in their escape.

The number of Kree troops boarding the ship was actually a bit larger than expected. In fact, Black Super forgot that the Skrulls also had a considerable number of soldiers accompanying Nick Fury and the others.

Although their numbers are still fewer than the Kree, at least they won't be like in the movies, where only General Ross has to protect a group of civilian Skrulls, constantly being chased around.

Judging from the situation, although Nick Fury and his group are still the weaker party, Carol Danvers in her Binary form is likely to be tied down and unable to support the others until she goes on a killing spree.

The Kree, who had the numerical advantage, naturally went out in full force to suppress the rebellious prisoners and defeat the deserters from their ranks once again.

They hadn't considered the possibility of defeat, after all, one side was the defeated Skrulls, and the other was the invincible natives of planet C53. The only troublesome thing was the defector members of their own team.

This chaos also caught up with Black Super, who was hiding in the shadows. A three-man squad was approaching his location.

Should we avoid it, or confront it head-on?

Given the current chaotic situation, it seems foolish to waste time playing hide-and-seek instead of taking advantage of the chaos. Furthermore, they need to avoid Nick Fury's accidental death, as there's not much time left for their own purposes.

So Black Super decided to take a bold step. First, he concealed himself in a blind spot near the entrance, preparing to ambush the Kree squad.

Contrary to what's depicted in the movies, Kree soldiers had their own set of tactics for close combat after boarding the ship. They didn't recklessly rush into an open space or jump out from around a corner before they had a clear understanding of the situation.

The latter situation, in particular, is practically like putting themselves on the receiving end of a shot. Even if their combat suits offer limited bulletproof protection, they're not the kind of suits that can withstand enemy fire without causing any real damage.

However, they didn't even go so far as to throw grenades as a greeting before entering. In short, the three-man tactical squad immediately raised their guns and observed different directions upon entering to ensure there were no enemies.

However, such tactical maneuvers only work against regular enemies. Using Super Speed to get behind them, Black Super leaps over the wall and knocks down two of them with his fists before they even realize what's happening.

However, the force of that punch, if used against an Earthling of similar size, would be enough to knock them unconscious. But against the Kree, it felt somewhat insufficient.

The two men, though knocked to the ground, were still conscious and tried to get up, raise their guns, and continue fighting.

The Black Super kicked each of them, delivering a concussion. He then kicked away the third man's weapon and stepped on him.

Because the Black Super was completely covered from head to toe, and had no badges or markings, it was impossible to tell anything other than that he was definitely humanoid.

The Kree, being trampled on, roared in his native language. The Black Super couldn't understand a word.

He spared one survivor because he remembered that the Kree's wristband device had Universal Translator that could translate the languages of all intelligent life in the Milky Way Galaxy. Perhaps it could be put to use.

"Do you understand what I'm saying?" The voice in Black Super came from a speaker in his throat.

The Kree continued yelling and shouting. Impatient, the Black Super simply slapped him twice, one lightly and one softly, and the Kree quieted down.

Pointing to the other person's wristband, the Black Super said, "Translator."

Even if he couldn't understand Black Super's words for the moment, this living Kree knew what to do. He immediately activated the Universal Translator and said, "You're a native of C53? Do you think you can trample on the dignity of Kree warriors without any punishment?"

Black Super spotted another device that could only be described as cutting-edge technology. This Universal Translator didn't have a separate Mike and speaker to replace the original user's voice and hearing. Instead, it allowed the user to directly speak and understand the target intelligent species'... language?

Or is this some kind of brainwave analysis that allows organisms to understand each other's intentions at a higher level?
