Battle Escalation

Yes, it was nervousness.

Without Shadow Spider-Man's calming influence, he was still just 15 years old. Even though he constantly recalled the feeling of merging with Shadow Spider-Man and tried to pretend he was calm and mature, in reality, he was still his immature self.

Occasionally, some immaturity would still show.

Especially once he entered combat.

Of course, it was definitely an improvement over his original self.

After all, how could he say it, he had already gotten blood on his hands.

Back then, he had shot and killed Vulture, who was trying to harm Aunt May. Although Shadow Spider-Man's consciousness was in control, Peter had also personally experienced that feeling.

Afterward, his subsequent encounters with Kraven the Hunter and Green Goblin were also basically led by him.

With these experiences, although he still felt some nervousness, he was much better than he used to be.

If it were his old self, he probably would have let Ant-Man, who had suddenly enlarged, snatch the shield back from him outside just now!

And now, perhaps he could even hold his own against Falcon and Winter Soldier, even fighting two at once.

Just then, Winter Soldier ran back.

Earlier, while Peter was fighting Falcon, Winter Soldier had taken the shield Peter used to hit him with and thrown it through the nearby window to Captain America, who was fighting Black Panther below.

With the shield, Captain America could finally contend with Black Panther.

But unfortunately, it was only a contention.

Black Panther's Vibranium armor was no small matter.

Wakanda's use of Vibranium was truly masterful.

Based on Vibranium's properties, they had developed Vibranium A and Vibranium B.

Vibranium A was the original Vibranium that could absorb energy, while Vibranium B was a variant that could break the molecular bonds of many metals, including Vibranium A.

It was just one metal, but they had managed to create the paradox of "the most indestructible shield" and "the sharpest spear."

Black Panther's Vibranium suit used Vibranium B on its claws.

As a result, after just a few swipes, Captain America's Vibranium Shield had several scratch marks on it.

The seemingly indestructible Vibranium Shield actually had scratch marks!

This greatly surprised Captain America.

But now was not the time for surprise. He could only endure the pain of his wife—no, his shield—being scratched by a wild man, and continue fighting Black Panther.

Meanwhile.

In the terminal.

Winter Soldier wanted to rescue Falcon, but Peter kicked both him and Falcon down.

Then, with a series of web fluid, both of them were tightly bound to the ground by webs, unable to move.

"I'd love to keep playing with you, but I have other tasks, so..."

Duang!

Peter slightly dodged to the side, quickly spraying a web from his hand, hitting a small drone and sticking it to the ceiling.

He looked up at the drone's design and said to Falcon, "Sir, this is your kid, right? Quite a mischievous one."

"Got anything else, buddy?" Winter Soldier asked.

Falcon shook his head in confusion, "Are all young people this capable now?"

Peter shrugged, "Bye-bye."

He turned and jumped out the window, rejoining the battle in the plaza outside.

At this point, the situation here had also escalated.

Captain America was being surrounded by Black Panther and War Machine. Just as he was about to be overwhelmed, Ant-Man made a brilliant move.

He handed Captain America a miniature car the size of a keychain and then picked up an enlarging dart, saying, "Throw it at this thing."

Captain America nodded somewhat blankly, not knowing what he was going to do.

Ant-Man didn't explain further and simply threw it.

Seeing this, Captain America instinctively threw the miniature car as well.

Splat!

The miniature car hit the enlarging dart, arriving first.

An astonishing sight appeared.

The miniature car instantly grew to normal vehicle size and smashed down towards War Machine!

War Machine, Black Panther, Black Widow, and Peter, who had just exited the terminal, were all stunned by this scene.

The next moment, they finally reacted.

Black Panther pulled Black Widow, who was not far away, to the ground, using his Vibranium suit to shield her from the blast damage.

Peter wanted to save them, but the distance was too great. He could only accelerate towards them as fast as possible.

War Machine was a true man, so he faced the car head-on.

Then, with a boom, he was crushed beneath the vehicle.

The immense kinetic energy pushed him and his armor forward several meters before stopping.

War Machine, covered in dust and grime, crawled out from under the burning car: "I'm angry now!"

Iron Man arrived at the opportune moment, landing on the ground and pulling Black Widow and Black Panther up from the ground one after another.

Black Widow asked, "Was this part of the plan too?"

Iron Man shook his head, "No, this has exceeded expectations. I intended to be a bit more polite with them."

"We're not actually going to fight them, are we?" Peter landed to the side, asking curiously.

Iron Man's tone was somewhat grim; he was clearly not in a particularly good mood.

Hearing Peter's words, he turned his head to look at him: "Or are we just playing house?"

"They're heading towards the plane," War Machine said.

"It's fine, someone has been waiting for a long time," Iron Man remained as steady as a mountain, not showing the slightest panic. "Now, let's go too."

So, Iron Man took Black Widow, while Black Panther and Peter hung on either side of War Machine.

The five quickly crossed the plaza and arrived on the other side.

It was then that Peter saw the "sixth person" Iron Man had mentioned.

His skin was entirely red, he wore simple gray-green clothes, and a cape draped behind him.

Most importantly, he was flying in the air!

"He can fly?" Peter couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"His name is Vision, and he's a very powerful character," War Machine said.

"How powerful?"

"Extremely, extremely powerful. And he's red-skinned, so maybe he likes to eat kids like you."

Peter: You really think I'm a three-year-old? What do I do if I want to defect?

As they spoke, the two teams on both sides reassembled.

This time, everyone was present!

Iron Man's side consisted of: Iron Man, Vision, War Machine, Black Widow, Black Panther, and Peter.

Captain America's side consisted of: Captain America, Wanda, Falcon, Hawkeye, Winter Soldier, and Ant-Man.

It had to be said, the lineups on both sides were quite interesting.

There were the close buddies Iron Man and Captain America, the married couple Vision and Wanda, and even the chatty duo of Peter and Ant-Man.

Looking at it this way, it was like stacking all sorts of buffs!

You could only say that the leaders on both sides knew how to play the game.

They could even assemble this group.

Yes, with great chemistry.

However, at this moment, the atmosphere on the field was not as harmonious as imagined.

With the full roster of both sides present, the expressions on both sides instantly became serious.

After Iron Man and Captain America assessed each other's combat power, they realized neither could "persuade" the other in a short amount of time!

The battle was about to erupt again!

And this time, it would be even more intense!
