Avengers 1 Underway

Helicarrier.

A group of people were discussing Loki's custody.

"Loki must be taken back by me to stand trial." Thor gulped down a large mug of ice-cold beer. After downing it with several loud gulps—

Bang!

"Another one."

Coulson, ever the nice guy and currently acting as a waiter, smiled as he took the mug and refilled it.

Captain shook his head and explained, "Thor, I hope you understand that your brother committed crimes on Earth. He should be tried by our human judicial system."

"Trial?" Thor seemed sensitive to that word.

"Your dear brother has at least twenty lives on his hands." Natasha spoke at the right moment, leaving Thor, who had been somewhat resentful at the mention of a trial, stunned.

"Uh." Thor gave an awkward smile. "Loki isn't my biological brother." He tried to ease the awkwardness.

"By the way, where are your Director and Dr. Banner?" Tony Stark, who had secretly obtained S.H.I.E.L.D.'s classified information, asked expressionlessly.

"With Loki," Coulson replied.

"Oh, thanks. Get me a Coke." Tony walked over to the table across from Coulson.

"No problem, but I heard Coke has a new name lately." Seemingly trying to ease the atmosphere, Coulson watched everyone turn toward him with curious expressions and smiled slightly. "It's called Bin Zhou Water."

Jarvis's voice immediately came through Tony Stark's portable earpiece. "Sir, Bin Zhou is—"

"HAHAHAHA!"

Everyone stared at Tony, who had suddenly burst into laughter, unsure why he found it so funny.

But after Coulson's interruption, the atmosphere had undoubtedly become much friendlier, and the awkwardness between strangers instantly vanished.

Just then, Coulson seemed to receive an order through his earpiece. He said to everyone present, "Sorry, the Director needs me."

Loki sat cross-legged in his prison cell, his eyes carrying a trace of mockery and arrogance.

Bruce Banner walked up to the cell and stared at the restrained Loki. He could sense the evil aura surrounding him.

Loki sneered and said, "Hey, big guy. We meet again."

Bruce Banner answered grimly, "Loki, do you know what you're doing? Do you know that what you've done will start a devastating war?"

Loki shrugged indifferently, a cold smile curling across his lips. "War is inevitable, Bruce. I'm merely guiding its course. This world needs a true king, and I am that king."

Bruce Banner frowned slightly. He knew it might be impossible to reason with Loki, but he still tried to persuade him. "Loki, you're lost in your desire for power and revenge. You're not a true king. You're a madman driven by twisted ambition."

Upon hearing Bruce's words, Loki's sneer deepened. "A madman? Perhaps. But at least I'm not some insignificant little human like you. You're still that weak, powerless scientist, incapable of understanding my greatness." After saying that, Loki gave a sly smile.

Seeing that cunning expression, Bruce Banner instinctively took a step back.

"Of course, of course, if I mean your other form." Loki spread his arms in an exaggerated gesture. "If it's the green giant, then you would be unstoppable. Together, we would own this world."

Loki shook his head and said firmly, "The universe. We would be invincible in this universe."

Anger and sorrow flickered in Bruce Banner's eyes. "Loki, you don't understand. True greatness isn't achieved through rule and destruction, but through peace, unity, and justice. What you're doing will only bring you more loneliness and pain."

Loki laughed coldly, mockery flashing in his eyes. "Bruce, that's amusing, but as far as I'm concerned, power is everything. You so-called superheroes are nothing but a group of foolish ants, unworthy of being compared to me."

Bruce Banner took a deep breath and said calmly, "Loki, no matter how arrogant you are, you'll fail in the end. Because we will defeat evil. We'll stop your plan and save Earth."

A cruel smile formed on Loki's lips. "We'll see, Bruce. Let time prove who the true ruler of this world is."

As Bruce Banner turned to leave, he suddenly heard Loki's teasing voice behind him.

"Tell me, is it possible that the cage holding me was actually meant for you?"

Bruce Banner froze at those words, then left with a heavy heart.

When Bruce Banner returned, he found that everyone except Coulson was there.

Only, the atmosphere was tense.

"Ha, Dr. Banner is back. Then let Dr. Banner judge who's right." Tony Stark proceeded to dump all of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s classified information on Banner.

Especially when he heard about the cell aboard the Helicarrier, Banner's heart sank.

"Tony, we're a team. We shouldn't be fighting among ourselves." Captain ignored Nick Fury's livid expression in the distance and tried to reason with him patiently.

"Ha? You really are an old fossil, Captain. You can't keep up with the times." Tony Stark said confidently, "I've already told you all. This team needs my technology and resources. Without me, you're nothing."

Captain was angered by Tony's words as well. He sneered disdainfully. "Technology and resources can't replace justice and humanity, Tony. You always think you're more important than you are."

Bruce Banner tried to calm the argument. "Everyone, calm down. We have to unite if we're going to fight Loki and his evil plan."

However, the tense situation made the atmosphere even more strained. Every Avenger had their own thoughts and stance.

"We have to unite if we're going to fight Loki and his evil plan?" Tony Stark sneered. "I've suddenly realized that playing house with you people really is a waste of time."

"I think I'll take my brother back after all. Your team's atmosphere is terrible. I don't like it." Thor looked mockingly at everyone present.

Then he said something that sounded especially harsh to S.H.I.E.L.D.

"You're nowhere near as good as Nathan Hawke's team."

Thor suddenly realized something and stood up. "That's right, I can go find Nathan Hawke." He then looked at Tony Stark beside him. "Hey, do you know how to find Nathan Hawke?"

"Thor. Nathan Hawke isn't a good person." Natasha's face darkened.

Thor ignored her, picked up his hammer, and prepared to leave.

Suddenly—

Rumble...

The Helicarrier began to shake.

"Director. It's Hawkeye. He's leading a group of agents and fighter jets in an attack on us." Maria Hill, in the command room, immediately informed everyone present.

Nick Fury said to everyone, "Guys. Let's kick these bastards' asses first."

Everyone sprang into action.

The situation aboard the Helicarrier rapidly deteriorated. The controlled Hawkeye led a group of controlled agents in a fierce assault against the Avengers. Their attack swept in like a storm, putting everyone in a difficult position.

Bruce Banner sensed something was wrong. His body began to tremble, and he instantly lost control of himself. His eyes turned wild and vicious, his body gradually swelled, and he finally transformed into the enormous, powerful Hulk.

"No! Don't do this! Control yourself!" Bruce Banner screamed desperately inside, but he couldn't stop the Hulk's rampage.

The Hulk began wreaking havoc, destroying the ship's facilities and equipment while ignoring the people around him.

"The big green pig seems a little too excited." Tony Stark teased as he put on the Iron Armor and prepared to fight the Hulk.

The two faced each other in the Helicarrier's corridor. Iron Man launched an attack, using the armor's powerful weapon systems to strike the Hulk. However, the Hulk's strength and fury made him exceptionally powerful, and Tony Stark found it difficult to fully control him.

"Banner, listen to me! You have to try to control yourself!" Tony Stark shouted, trying to awaken Bruce Banner's consciousness.

But the Hulk continued his rampage uncontrollably. He targeted Iron Man and launched a fierce attack. Tony Stark had no choice but to give it everything he had, dodging the Hulk's attacks while trying to find his weakness.

Meanwhile, Loki, freed by Hawkeye, encountered Coulson. He stared coldly at Coulson, preparing to cast his magic. Loki's eyes were filled with evil and indifference. Without hesitation, he attacked and killed Coulson.

"Coulson!" Anger and sorrow flashed in Natasha's eyes as she decided to avenge him.

Natasha swiftly closed in on Loki. Using her weapons and fighting skills, she engaged him in an intense duel. Loki nimbly evaded all of Natasha's attacks.

Then, having grown tired of it, Loki took the Mind Scepter Hawkeye handed him and gave it a wave. With an evil grin, he said, "Goodbye." The two vanished before Natasha.

Thor fought fiercely against the enemy fighter jets outside the Helicarrier. He swung Mjolnir, unleashing deafening thunder as he shot down the enemy aircraft.

"Power of Thor!" Thor roared. His power echoed with the lightning dancing across the sky, forming a powerful energy field.

Nick Fury and Maria Hill worked closely together against the controlled agents. Maria Hill moved with agility, swiftly defeating enemies with her weapons and combat skills. Nick Fury calmly directed the battle, using his tactics and strategies to lead the team against the enemy assault.

The entire Helicarrier was filled with fire and explosions. The battle had reached its most intense stage.

Meanwhile.

Stark Tower.

"Hey, miss in the white robe with blue skin, what exactly are you doing in Stark Tower?" Andrew and Electro asked as they looked at the Stark security personnel lying all around them.
