Ever since 2B awakened self-awareness and emotions, she had regarded Loren as the most important person in her life. And after learning about the special relationship between boyfriend and girlfriend, she had quietly come to see Loren as her man.

Of course, she usually called Loren Boss and had never actually referred to him as her man.

But not saying it aloud did not mean she did not think so. Thus, whenever she discovered another woman trying to get close to Loren, she instinctively felt resistance and hostility. According to her understanding, that was what humans called jealousy.

Meanwhile, 2B sent Natasha flying with a single kick.

Loren could not help sucking in a breath, letting out a startled sound. How much must that kick have hurt?

He almost did not dare look at Natasha's miserable state.

Loren had not expected the scene before him, and neither had Natasha.

She had not even seen who had arrived before being kicked away.

Fortunately, she had a habit of wearing body armor whenever she went out. Otherwise, that kick alone would have been enough to send her straight to hell.

"Damn it, who are you?"

Natasha crawled out of the rubble with her hair in disarray, looking utterly bedraggled.

But at that moment, she immediately pulled a pistol from her waist and unloaded on 2B.

Facing her attack, 2B swiftly swung the katana in her hand, effortlessly blocking every bullet.

"You still dare resist? You're courting death!"

Seeing Natasha still daring to fight back, 2B's expression turned icy. Gripping her katana, she thrust it toward Natasha.

Natasha's face changed. She rolled across the ground and narrowly evaded 2B's attack.

Not only that, she pulled a special device from her waist and threw it onto the ground.

The instant the device hit the floor, a terrifying magnetic force erupted.

It instantly latched onto the katana in 2B's hand, preventing her from using it to attack for the time being.

But what Natasha had not expected was that her magnetic device had not merely caught the katana.

She discovered that the magnetic device seemed to affect that woman as well.

She could clearly see the woman struggling with all her strength to break free from the magnetic restraint.

The sight left her completely stunned.

After all, magnetic devices only worked on iron. They had no effect whatsoever on flesh and blood.

Yet the scene before her had exceeded all expectations. The magnetic device was actually affecting a human body as well.

Wait, that was not right!

It was not that the magnetic device had suddenly started affecting flesh and blood. There was something strange about the woman's body!

"What is inside your body? Why is the magnetic device able to pull you in?"

Natasha stared at 2B in astonishment, her eyes filled with disbelief.

"None of your business!"

2B was furious. She had not expected this seemingly frail woman to possess so many tricks.

Seeing the magnetic device holding both her katana and body in place, she immediately controlled the Anti-Gravity Drone beside her to fire a laser at it. With a boom, the magnetic device exploded and became a pile of scrap metal.

Freed from the magnetic device's restraint, 2B was once again like a fish in water. The katana in her hand stabbed directly into Natasha's shoulder.

Although Natasha wore body armor, 2B's katana still pierced through it.

And 2B's strength was no joke. Her katana not only pierced Natasha's body armor, but also sent her flying backward like a kite with its string cut, slamming heavily into the steel wall behind her.

With a bang, Natasha crumpled to the ground, unable to get back up.

At the same time, a mouthful of bright red blood spilled from her lips. She looked utterly miserable.

After incapacitating Natasha with one strike, 2B did not stop there.

Instead, she quickly followed up, gripping her katana as she prepared to finish Natasha off for good.

But at that moment, Loren's calm voice rang out.

"Enough. Giving her a lesson is enough. She still has her uses."

Upon hearing Loren's order, the katana that was about to slash down on Natasha's neck abruptly stopped.

Then 2B sheathed the katana and tossed it behind her back.

"Consider yourself lucky. Don't let me see you getting close to Boss again, or I'll stab you to death."

After leaving behind that threat, 2B turned and came to Loren's side, reverting to her obedient and adorable appearance.

Seeing how quickly she changed moods, Loren clicked his tongue inwardly. So female robots could be moody after developing emotions too!

And judging from 2B's behavior, she was clearly using the excuse of killing an enemy to eliminate her romantic rival!

Then again, a romantic rival was still an enemy!

"Boss, what are you looking at?"

Seeing Loren's gaze lingering on Natasha, 2B suddenly spoke.

Her tone clearly carried a trace of resentment and displeasure. She was obviously on the verge of exploding.

"N-Nothing. I just think you fought well. Really well!"

Loren hurriedly withdrew his gaze and laughed awkwardly.

As he spoke, he leaped into the air, hovering above the ground before turning into a streak of light and speeding toward the horizon.

Watching Loren and 2B leave so brazenly, Natasha's eyes filled with bitterness.

Barton and she had come here to support Minister Pierce, yet they had not only failed to provide support.

Instead, Minister Pierce had died right before their eyes. Worse still, they themselves had been beaten so badly that they could not fight back at all.

This was simply an unbearable humiliation!

A minister of the World Security Council had been killed in his own office.

This was no longer mere arrogance. This was utter lawlessness!

"What happened to you two?"

At that moment, Coulson hurried over from outside.

When he saw Natasha and Barton in such a miserable state, shock appeared on his face.

"Where did you go just now? Didn't I send you a request for backup?"

"Why didn't you use the weapons on the Quinjet to support us?"

"What? You sent a message? I didn't receive anything! And the Quinjet's operating system suddenly blacked out. I've been dealing with the malfunction and had no idea what happened here. Are you two all right?"

"We're not dead yet, but Pierce is."

"What?!"

Only after hearing Natasha's words did Coulson notice the body lying nearby. It was Alexander Pierce.

"Who did this? Did you identify them?" Coulson asked Natasha with a grave expression.

Natasha shook her head. "There were two of them, a man and a woman. The man wore a bat-like armored suit, so I couldn't see what he looked like, but he was extremely powerful. He also seemed to be skilled in information warfare.

"The blackout affecting S.H.I.E.L.D., the Security Council, and even the Quinjet you mentioned was probably his doing.

"As for the woman, I saw her face, but I'd never seen her before. She should be a member of some newly emerged criminal group. We'll have to investigate after we get back to determine her identity."

"What? He blacked out the Quinjet's operating system?! Damn it, what kind of monster is this?"

"How would I know? This world is getting more and more chaotic. I'm afraid the sky is about to change!"

Natasha leaned weakly against the wall behind her and let out a long sigh, her expression extremely complicated.
