Luca waited for the Inverted-A Squad to arrive so he could enlist them to help him take Kingpin’s Orange Industries shares. After meeting the team, he prepared to give them their mission instructions.

• Luca worried that taking Kingpin on alone would be beyond his abilities and that asking Tony Stark for help would cost him the shares.
• Shamira reported that Dun Shan’s squad had arrived in New York, and Luca told her to handle the people remaining in the warehouse.

• Luca allowed Wrench to inspect Baymax later and asked Dun Shan for the squad’s attention so he could give them their mission instructions.

Dun Shan’s Inverted-A Squad prepared to attack Kingpin’s residence in Hell’s Kitchen, using Luca’s advanced Recon Goggles to scan the guarded building. The squad took their positions and began coordinating their assault, with Dun Shan and Shamira set to lead the first strike alongside Longbow.

• Longbow eliminated the guards in the watchtowers, and Dun Shan led the squad through the fence to take out the outer patrols.
• Wrench spotted an armored Mercedes approaching the warehouse, so Dun Shan ordered explosives planted at the entrance and Longbow to cover the car.
• The Mercedes stopped after its driver saw the bodies, and Wrench warned that enemies inside were charging toward the entrance.
• Ryokugyu detonated the explosives, destroying the doors and killing the six enemies rushing out.
• Baymax halted the charging Mercedes, while Thresh fired his M249 at it and Luca activated Destruction Decomposer Mode.

Luca and Dun Shan’s team attacked Kingpin’s stronghold, using gunfire and Luca’s [Dominator] to break through the gangsters’ defenses. After discovering Kingpin was still barricaded on the third floor, Luca realized the defenders might be waiting for reinforcements and warned the team about a grenade.

• Luca warned Inverted-A Squad about two incoming grenades, then used Baymax’s hand to leap into the air and volley one grenade back through the third-floor window.
• The returned grenade detonated inside the building as the other grenade exploded outside; Inverted-A Squad took cover and avoided injury.
