Charles continued to read the content on the scrolls, especially regarding the trade of jutsu with Kabuto.
Charles chuckled, "Kabuto really lives up to his reputation, always coming up with clever ideas. He thought of a way to cheat S.H.I.E.L.D. so quickly."
D-rank jutsu? Kabuto didn't lack jutsu, as Charles had many jutsu stored in his scroll of secret techniques that all ninjas could use.
There were plenty of jutsu there, so he could easily pick one for Kabuto. But just to go through the motions and deceive S.H.I.E.L.D. into giving him 200 energy blocks, Kabuto decided to choose this way.
On one hand, it would allow Kabuto to slowly reveal his own jutsu, and on the other hand, as time passed, he could also propose to purchase higher-level jutsu.
By then, the price could continue to increase, up to 500 energy blocks for a C-rank jutsu, 1000 blocks for a B-rank, or even higher.
As Charles continued to read further, he came across Coulson's visit and his proposal to trade with 084 items.
Seeing this, Charles began to recall all the 084 items he remembered from his memories. From the energy guns developed by Hydra's Red Skull, to a gamma ray emitter, and even the Obelisk and Terrigen Crystals of the Inhumans, many items were classified as 084.
There were many more things that had not been revealed in movies and TV shows.
Although he didn't know all of them, Charles knew that S.H.I.E.L.D. had a large number of 084 items.
Most of the special items that appeared globally were collected by S.H.I.E.L.D. and marked as 084 for containment. Some were even directly shot into the sun for destruction.
Seeing Coulson propose to trade 084 items and hoping that Charles Agency would provide something in return, Charles began to think about what items he had that could be used for trade.
This line of thought led him to discover quite a few things.
Delicious ramen, wax baths, physique-enhancing serums, slots for medical ninjutsu assistance, Felix Felicis potion, Euphoria Elixir, Soothing Elixir, Veritaserum potion, Polyjuice Potion, Aging Potion, Skele-Gro potion, and many other magical potions.
Seeing the numerous items he could offer, Charles could easily exchange some of them for a considerable number of 084 items.
However, the only thing to confirm was whether those 084 items were truly valuable for trading. Charles knew that many 084 items might look peculiar but were actually not as valuable to him as a single energy block.
Moreover, Charles understood that once the trade was initiated, he would have to go back. Because other ninjas, besides himself, couldn't be sure if the 084 items provided by S.H.I.E.L.D. were truly useful for them.
After reading all the reports on the scrolls, Charles opened the remaining three scrolls, which were all sealing scrolls containing energy blocks, totaling 249 blocks.
Looking at the energy blocks piled in front of him, Charles chose to recharge all of them directly.
Ding! Recharge successful, obtained 44,820 gold coins.
At this point, Charles's gold coin count reached 67,536 coins, while the pile of energy blocks in front of Charles was completely absorbed by him and disappeared without a trace.
The ninja dogs witnessing this scene showed no surprise. Then, Charles took out a blank scroll and began to write on it.
He informed Kakashi that if S.H.I.E.L.D. wanted to trade, they needed to present the actual items. Only after Charles Agency determines their value would they proceed with the trade.
After establishing this principle for the trade, he instructed Kakashi to contact him a day before the trade date using his summoning beast.
After writing down these instructions on the scroll, Charles tied it to one of the ninja dogs and said, "Take this scroll to Kakashi. After he reads its contents, he'll know what to do."
After instructing the ninja dogs, Charles pondered how to arrange things with Thor.
He couldn't just leave Thor in Heimdall's care and ignore him. That would be unfair.
He needed to return to Earth for completing the trade with S.H.I.E.L.D. and then return to Jotunheim to wait for Asgard's reinforcements with Thor.
After some thought, Charles came up with a plan: he would allow a ninja to enter the summoning world. He would then use summoning jutsu to bring them, along with the summoning beast, to Jotunheim.
After that, he would return to Earth to handle his affairs.
Once everything was settled, he would re-enter the summoning world and have the summoning beast bring him back to Jotunheim.
Then, the process would repeat, with the ninja returning to Earth using the same method.
After considering it, Charles believed his plan would work without any issues.
With his plan confirmed, Charles realized he could recruit several ninjas and fully manifest them while he returns to Earth.
Looking at the items available for recharging in his storage space, ten Earth Hearts and the 50 new reactors provided by Tony, Charles retrieved them all.
Ding! Found rechargeable items. Would you like to recharge them?
Yes!
Ding! Recharge successful, obtained 45,000 gold coins!
The Earth Hearts were recharged for 20,000 gold coins, while the 50 new element reactors were valued at 25,000 gold coins.
After completing these tasks, Charles unsealed another layer of the Matryoshka doll and gained an additional 2,000 gold coins. With that, his gold coin count reached 114,536.
This amount of gold coins was enough to open three more battle slots.
Charles clicked on the + sign beside the battle slots, and the system prompted him.
Ding! Would you like to spend 36,000 gold coins to open a battle slot?
Yes!
With 36,000 gold coins deducted, Charles gained an additional battle slot.
Looking at the remaining gold coins, Charles opened two more slots, each costing 38,000 and 40,000 gold coins.
After these actions, Charles's gold coins were reduced to just 536!
With everything done, Charles exited the system space and released the Reverse Summoning Jutsu, returning to Jotunheim.
As he returned, he noticed Thor looking at him.
"Charles, where did you just go? You suddenly disappeared."
"You didn't return to Earth and leave me alone in Jotunheim to wait for the army, did you?"
Hearing Thor's complaint, Charles chuckled, "I didn't go back to Earth. I just handled some things."
"I haven't left any magic materials to mark the formation in Jotunheim, so if I leave, I really won't be able to come back."
