The Arrival of Naruto in the Marvel Universe

After arranging for Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura, Charles headed to the Summoning Realm and held meetings at the other three bases: Sound Ninja, Mist Ninja, and Sand Ninja. He also strengthened Kimimaro by merging cards.

The merged Kimimaro's strength reached the initial Kage level, making him extremely powerful.

At the same time, Charles manifested Kin Tsuchi and gave it to the Sound Ninja Village as a form of compensation, returning their number to five ninjas.

…

Meanwhile-

In the palace of Asgard, Heimdall reported, "King Odin, I have seen Prince Loki on Earth."

Hearing Heimdall's words, Odin was taken aback. He had always thought that his adopted son Loki was dead.

"Are you sure?"

Heimdall nodded and said, "Yes, I'm sure. He has taken the Tesseract from Earth and is attacking a certain faction. It doesn't look good."

After a few seconds of contemplation, Odin said, "Keep an eye on Loki and see what he is planning."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

"Also, summon Thor."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

Soon, Thor arrived at the hall, wielding Mjölnir, and asked, "Father, is there another rebellion?"

Seeing Thor, who was always ready to quash a rebellion, Odin frowned slightly and said, "I have found Loki's whereabouts."

Thor was momentarily stunned, then excitedly exclaimed, "Loki is alive! That's wonderful news!"

"Father, where is Loki? I'll go bring him back."

"He is on Earth."

"Earth? With Charles Doyle?"

"Yes, Thor, I am tasking you with bringing Loki and the Tesseract back to Asgard."

"The Tesseract?"

Odin then explained to Thor what Loki was doing on Earth and his possession of the Tesseract. He instructed Thor to bring both Loki and the Tesseract back to Asgard.

With this mission, Thor felt a mix of joy and anticipation. He was relieved his brother was alive and looked forward to his trip to Earth.

…

Meanwhile-

On a Quinjet, Steve Rogers was reviewing Bruce Banner's file and curiously asked, "Did Dr. Banner try to replicate the serum in my blood?"

Coulson, holding onto a handle in the plane, said, "Many have tried."

"You were the first super-soldier. Banner thought gamma radiation might unlock Dr. Erskine's original formula."

Steve Rogers, watching a video on the computer, remarked, "Didn't turn out so well, did it?"

"No, but when he's normal, he's like Stephen Hawking."

Steve Rogers looked at Coulson in surprise, who smiled and added, "He's incredibly brilliant."

"And I must say, it's an honor to officially meet you."

"I've seen you before, though you were frozen at the time. I even visited you during your long sleep."

Steve Rogers looked at Coulson, not saying much, then stood up to gaze out at the scenery outside the plane.

Coulson, slightly excited, continued, "Honestly, having you join us is a great honor."

"I hope I can live up to it."

Coulson was more confident than Steve Rogers. "You definitely can, no doubt about it."

"We made some modifications to your uniform. I even had some design input."

Steve Rogers was surprised. "My uniform?"

"Aren't the stars and stripes a bit outdated?"

Coulson replied, "Considering the current situation and the impending battle, people might need a bit of the old spirit."

Steve Rogers fell silent for a moment but didn't say anything.

…

Elsewhere-

In a secret underground base, many personnel under Loki's control were preparing for his invasion of Earth. They were constructing a device to use the Tesseract and transporting materials.

Loki, holding his scepter, was meditating to communicate with the leader of the Chitauri army, informing them of Earth's growing defensive forces.

As the Mind Stone on the scepter glowed, Loki's consciousness was transported to a desolate planet.

The Chitauri leader, seeing Loki's image, said, "Loki, the Chitauri are growing impatient."

Loki responded, "Have them hold their ground. I've discovered some formidable individuals on Earth."

Using magic, Loki projected scenes of various battles, showing Earth's defenders: the Hulk's fights, the fiery attacks of Blaze, the battles of Sound Ninja Kimimaro and Akatsuki member Hidan, and the clashes of Deidara and Kirigakure's Mei Terumi, as well as fights involving ninjas from the Charles Agency.

"These are Earth's defensive forces. Do you still think the people of Earth are mere insects you can crush at will?"

The Chitauri leader watched the scenes in silence for a few seconds before saying, "It seems I underestimated them, but they are no match for the Chitauri beasts."

Loki, staring intently, said, "Is your army really as invincible as you claim? If your carelessness leads to failure, things won't go well for you in his eyes."

The Chitauri leader was silent again, then said, "I will dispatch our finest warriors and the beast legion."

"Ensure the portal is large enough, and I will send the mothership as well. With Earth's technology, they cannot penetrate our defenses."

Loki, unimpressed, replied, "I hope so."

The Chitauri leader suggested, "You can also return with the Tesseract to the Dark Order, then lead the army to Earth."

"Although this will be slower, the Earth will still be yours."

But Loki refused. "The Tesseract is with me. Until the portal is open and your army is under my command, Earth's conquest is not assured."

The Chitauri leader, angry, warned, "Asgardian, start the war. Fail, and no matter where you hide, we will find you. Do you think you know pain? You don't"

The communication ended, and Loki's consciousness returned to Earth, with his surroundings returning to normal.

…

Elsewhere-

Phil Coulson and Steve Rogers, arrived at an aircraft carrier in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.

As the plane landed and the two exited the cabin, Natasha Romanoff approached them. Upon seeing her, Coulson introduced her, saying:

"Agent Romanoff, this is Captain Rogers."

"Hello."

"Hello."

After exchanging greetings, Natasha informed Coulson, "The others needs you. They've started facial recognition tracking."

Coulson nodded, saying to Rogers, "See you later."

Natasha then led Rogers into the ship, commenting as they walked:

"Finding you in the ice caused quite a stir."

"I thought Coulson was going to faint from excitement."

"Did he ask you to sign his Captain America trading cards?"

Rogers, puzzled, asked, "Trading cards?"

"Vintage set. He's very proud of them."

At that moment, Steve Rogers noticed Bruce Banner stepping off a small plane nearby and immediately greeted him:

"Dr. Banner."

Banner extended his hand and shook Rogers's, replying, "Hello."

"I heard you were coming."

Rogers looked at Banner and said, "I heard you can locate the Tesseract."

Banner glanced around and then replied, "You didn't hear the other stuff?"

Rogers responded, "Only what matters to me."

Banner, taking another look at Rogers, nodded and then gestured towards the aircraft carrier and its equipment, saying, "You must find all this quite strange."

Rogers looked around and replied, "Actually, it's kind of familiar."

Natasha, observing their conversation, urged, "Gentlemen, you should head inside."

"It will soon be hard to breathe out here."

No sooner had she spoken than the ship's PA system announced, "Deck crew, clear the deck."

Rogers, noticing the changing environment, asked, "Is this a submarine?"

Banner, walking alongside, joked, "Really?"

"They want me in a pressurized metal container under water?"

As they reached the edge of the deck, they saw massive turbines rising from either side of the carrier, generating strong winds.

Banner remarked, "It looks worse than that."

The aircraft carrier then began to lift off the water. Steve Rogers, witnessing the scene, realized the magnitude of the transformation. Bruce Banner followed Natasha into the interior of the flying aircraft carrier.

Inside, a large number of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were busily adjusting various controls and data.

Standing at the center, Nick Fury ordered, "Let's get invisible. Engage reflective panels."

Soon, the flying aircraft carrier disappeared from plain sight. Fury turned to address Banner and Rogers, "Gentlemen."

Steve Rogers, visibly impressed, walked up to Nick Fury, pulled out a ten-dollar bill from his pocket, and handed it over.

Clearly, the aircraft carrier's capabilities had exceeded his expectations, and he was conceding a bet made the previous day.

Steve Rogers began to tour the aircraft carrier, while Nick Fury approached Bruce Banner, extending his hand, "It's good to have you here, Doctor."

Banner shook his hand, replying, "Thank you for the polite invitation."

"How long will I be staying?"

Fury responded directly, "As soon as we secure the Tesseract, you're free to go."

Banner nodded, then asked, "How's the progress?"

Nick Fury gestured towards Phil Coulson, who promptly explained, "We've scanned every camera worldwide that can be wirelessly accessed. Phones, laptops, anything connected to a satellite serves as our eyes."

Natasha, observing a computer scanning for Barton's image, commented, "At this rate, it will take too long. Have you considered other methods?"

Banner interjected, "You need to narrow the search area."

Then, turning to Nick Fury, he asked, "How many spectrometers can you get your hands on?"

Fury, crossing his arms, replied, "How many do you need?"

"Contact every lab you can find. Have them place spectrometers on their rooftops, calibrated to search for gamma radiation."

"I'll create a clustering algorithm to simulate a tracking pattern. This should help eliminate some areas and speed up the search."

"Can you find me a workspace?"

Fury, impressed with Banner's immediate contribution, nodded appreciatively. "Agent Romanoff, can you take Dr. Banner to his lab?"

Natasha stepped forward, addressing Banner, "Follow me. We've got everything you need, Doctor."

While S.H.I.E.L.D. was busy with their search, Loki was also preparing, with Barton planning a diversion to acquire the iridium they needed.

…

Coulson approached Steve Rogers, looking like a fan hoping for an autograph on his collectible cards. "If it's too much trouble, I understand."

Rogers glanced at Coulson and replied, "Not at all, it's no trouble."

Signing autographs was something he was very accustomed to from his days of promoting war bonds.

"This set is a limited edition. It took me years to complete it, and it's still in great condition. Though the edges are a bit yellowed, but..."

At that moment, Sitwell, who was in charge of tracking the alien, suddenly turned around and called out to Coulson, "There's a match. Facial features 67% match."

"Wait, cross-referencing shows a 79% match."

Coulson quickly walked over and asked, "Where?"

Sitwell quickly pulled up the surveillance camera footage and said, "Stuttgart, Germany, 28 Königstrasse."

"He's not trying to hide."

Nick Fury then turned to Steve and said, "Captain, it's your turn."

Steve Rogers nodded at Nick Fury, then went to the armory to put on his uniform. He and Natasha then boarded a Quinjet, heading towards the target location.

…

Meanwhile-

On the other side-

Loki entered the banquet hall, killing the scientist who had the iridium element. Using an instrument, he extracted the scientist's eye, working with Barton to obtain the iridium.

Amidst the chaos, Loki was unfazed, even excited. He dispelled the illusion of his earthly clothes, revealing his Asgardian prince attire, and blocked the guests' escape.

"Kneel before me."

Using his scepter, Loki created multiple projections of himself, surrounding the guests. He struck the ground with his scepter and demanded, "Kneel!"

Terrified, the guests trembled and knelt down.

"That's right."

"Isn't this simpler?"

"Isn't this your true nature?"

"You crave subjugation, and I, Loki of Asgard, am here to rule you and lead you."

As Loki was monologuing and about to kill a dissenter with a blast from his scepter, Captain America suddenly descended from above, using his shield to deflect the blast, knocking Loki to the ground.

Steve Rogers declared, "The last time I was in Germany, I met someone who thought they were above everyone else. We didn't get along."

Loki got up, looking a bit disheveled but unhurt.

"Captain America, you're outdated."

Steve Rogers replied, "The one who's outdated isn't me."

At this moment, the Quinjet hovered nearby, a machine gun emerging from its belly and aiming at Loki.

Natasha shouted, "Drop the weapon and surrender immediately."

Loki immediately attacked the jet, but Natasha skillfully dodged the incoming magical projectiles.

Seeing Loki's resistance, Steve Rogers attacked with his shield.

However, even with his enhanced strength, he was no match for Loki. His attacks were weakened by Loki's armor, and he was knocked down by Loki's scepter.

At this time, Loki's power was just slightly less than when he wielded Gungnir.

Natasha, unable to pinpoint the real Loki among his duplicates, hesitated to attack.

Just then, Tony Stark hacked into the Quinjet's system and said, "Natasha, miss me?"

Hearing Tony's voice, Natasha smiled, knowing reinforcements had arrived.

Tony, in his Iron Man suit, descended from the sky, firing two repulsor beams that blasted Loki away from Captain America. He landed with a classic superhero pose, revealing his full arsenal aimed at Loki.

"Make a move, Bambi."

Loki, however, offered no resistance, allowing himself to be captured.

Soon, Tony and the others were escorting Loki back to the Helicarrier in the Quinjet.

On the jet, Steve, looking at the silent Loki, said to Tony, "I have a bad feeling about this."

Tony, sarcastic as ever, replied, "Why? Because the rock star surrendered so easily?"

Steve responded, "I don't think it was easy at all. This guy is very powerful."

Tony continued his snark, "Well, you're still pretty lively for an old man."

"What kind of workout do you do, Pilates?"

"What?"

"It's like like aerobics."

"You've probably missed a lot, being a pop-sicle for so long."

Steve explained, "No, I was given another serum after I woke up, significantly enhancing my abilities, but this guy still overpowered me."

Hearing about the serum, Tony scrutinized Steve, then said, "That's a waste; it doesn't show much improvement. Fury must have a big budget to get that stuff for a retired guy."

Steve, not expecting Tony's sharp tongue, was momentarily at a loss for words.

After a pause, he said, "Fury didn't tell me he approached you too."

Tony nodded, "Yeah, there are a lot of things Fury hasn't told you."

Suddenly, there was lightning and thunder outside. Natasha exclaimed, "Where's the lightning coming from?"

Steve, noticing Loki's odd expression, asked, "What, are you afraid of a little lightning?"

Loki looked at Steve and replied, "I'm not fond of what follows."

The jet shook as Thor landed on it.

Seeing this, Tony quickly put on his helmet, and Steve grabbed his shield.

As Tony opened the hatch, Steve shouted, "What are you doing?"

Seeing hatch opened, Thor jumped in.

Tony was about to attack but was immediately knocked down by Thor's hammer. Thor grabbed Loki and, ignoring everyone else, flew out of the jet with him.
