Reborn with Steve Stand

Chapter 69:

Indeed, it has been proven that the search program created by Dr. Banner is highly effective. Soon, everyone learned about the whereabouts of the Tesseract, which, just like in the original, was located at Stark Tower in New York.

The problem is that the Helicarrier's travel speed is too slow, but there's nothing that can be done about it. After all, it has just suffered an attack, and the engine's power is several notches lower than before. It's already impressive that it can still fly.

The impatient Avengers team, after discussing, immediately boarded the small fighter jets and flew towards New York in advance. Of course, there was someone even more anxious among them.

That would be none other than the owner of Stark Tower, Tony Stark. He didn't even want to ride in a small fighter jet. Instead, he directly put on his Iron Man suit and flew towards New York.

But Nebula is different from someone like Loki. At this point in time, she is the kind of person who can do anything for the mission.

After Tony Stark flew back to the tower, he intended to prevent the opening of the wormhole in advance. He was in conversation with Dr. Savidge when Nebula, without saying a word, directly attacked from behind with a knife. Thankfully, Tony Stark had eaten a golden apple, which greatly improved his physical abilities, allowing him to narrowly dodge this deadly attack.

While Iron Man was confronting Nebula, a blue beam suddenly shot up into the sky. The deep blue energy slowly diffused in mid-air, followed by a rapidly expanding enormous void reflecting the cosmic space. Countless armored Chitauri soldiers poured out of their aircraft and madly spread outwards. They didn't even engage in direct combat with Tony Stark. Instead, they immediately began expanding in New York, indiscriminately attacking everything in front of them.

"A futile resistance," said Nebula, standing at the top of the tower, observing Iron Man's actions. Soon, a spacecraft docked beside her, and she mounted it effortlessly. "Since that's the case, I'll kill you first..."

After saying that, she charged straight at Tony. Of course, Tony noticed Nebula, and he fired a repulsor blast with his hand. However, Nebula had the Mind Stone in her possession, and she directly shot an energy beam back, deflecting Stark's repulsor blast. With a loud boom, he was thrown into the air, flipping over.

"Kill him," Nebula pointed her staff at Tony. Chitauri soldiers immediately focused their fire on him, shooting energy projectiles relentlessly.

However, at that moment, thunderclouds appeared in the sky, and lightning struck one of the Chitauri soldiers, jumping from one to another. In an instant, more than a dozen aircraft exploded into fireworks in mid-air.

Thor flew out from the clouds, grabbing Tony, who was losing balance in mid-air.

"I thought the Hulk sent you back to Asgard!" Tony said, relieved to see Thor, as he took care of two Chitauri aircraft with a wave of his hand.

"No one told me that the big green guy was on our side," Thor said, still with a few bruises on his face. He seemed displeased. "I thought he was with Gamora."

"Blame Nick for that," Tony Stark said, adjusting his balance and immediately jetting out two long tail flames from his feet, rushing towards the Chitauri alien fleet.

Thor followed suit, summoning thunder to deal with a large number of aircraft.

However, in the next second, a huge shadow suddenly appeared in the teleportation gate in mid-air, followed by a massive creature resembling a whale flying out from it.

Thor immediately swung his hammer upon seeing this, but a spacecraft suddenly charged at him. Nebula jumped high from the spacecraft, holding her mind scepter, and stabbed directly at Thor's chest.

"Watch out for that scepter!"

Tony quickly shouted, fortunately Thor didn't act recklessly this time. He quickly blocked with Mjolnir and then kicked Nebula away.

However, in that momentary delay, two more of those giant floating creatures emerged from the teleportation gate. These three monsters flew in different directions, and their metallic decks opened layer by layer, with countless Chitauri soldiers jumping down, recklessly attacking ordinary civilians on the streets.

"Damn it!"

Tony, seeing the situation, became anxious and quickly rushed down to deal with these soldiers.

But before he could reach the scene, a hail of bullets rained down, directly shredding a large number of Chitauri soldiers.

Soon, the sound of engines roared, and Stark looked up to see a fighter jet flying from a distance. It was evident that the other members of the Avengers had also arrived.

However, before he could breathe a sigh of relief, a beam of blue light suddenly hit the left wing of the jet. Nebula, piloting a spacecraft, flew in an arc in mid-air, holding her mind scepter and coldly observing everything happening below.

"You damn alien bald woman!"

Upon witnessing this scene, Tony immediately cursed, and he was about to catch up with her to engage in combat.

However, someone angrier than him quickly appeared.

"Hulk is the boss!!!"

Accompanied by a deafening roar, the top of the jet was torn open violently, and the Green Giant leaped out, grabbing the spacecraft driven by Nebula.

"Look at you, in that disgusting color."

Upon seeing Hulk's green skin, Nebula instantly thought of her sister Gamora. She smirked and raised her mind scepter, saying, "Since that's the case, you'll also follow her example and serve me..."

But before Nebula could utter the final "force" in her sentence, Hulk suddenly roared in anger. Then, he swung his arm in a wide arc and delivered a powerful punch to Nebula.

"You! You're too ugly!!!"

Although Nebula had been modified by Thanos into a half-mechanical being, it was clear that she couldn't withstand the full force of Hulk's blow, especially with the dual damage to her mind and body.

So when Hulk landed that powerful punch, not only did Nebula get hit, but her spacecraft also exploded along with her. With a loud bang, a ball of fire appeared in the sky, and Nebula, twisted and smoking, fell from mid-air.

However, despite Nebula being knocked away, the Chitauri soldiers did not give up.

Hulk looked up and saw the Leviathan warship not far away. He excitedly roared and immediately rushed over, smashing it into the ground with three punches and two kicks.

The other members of the Avengers also quickly regrouped.

"This scale..."

Captain America furrowed his brows, looking up at the Chitauri army wreaking havoc in the sky.

This could no longer be considered a small-scale battle; it was a full-blown war. He didn't know if their side could resist this alien army, but for now, they had to take it step by step.

"Captain, give the order."

Natasha also realized the seriousness of the situation and reminded him.

"Alright, I got it."

Captain America looked at the teleportation gate in the sky and immediately began assigning tasks: "In any case, before the gate can be closed, we must do everything we can to delay them... Barton, I need you to observe their movements from a high point. Tony, you're in charge of controlling the defense line here. If any of them run more than three blocks away, either eliminate them or find a way to drive them back with firepower."

"Thor, your combat power is strong. I need you to go near the teleportation gate and use your hammer, lightning, or whatever else to impede the invasion of these aliens."

"As for me and Natasha, we'll stay on the ground and find a way to attract those aliens without aircraft, ensuring they don't attack civilians." Captain America said this, then turned his head.

"Where did Fang Mo go?!"
