Before Chen Haoran injected the physical enhancement serum, his ability to control fire and create flames was very weak.
The flames he produced were basically harmless and could only be used to light a cigarette, serving as a lighter. Thus, he could only incorporate it into his street magic performances.
Now, Chen Haoran looked at the flame spinning and rising a meter high in his hand, knowing that this was not even his full power.
Chen Haoran threw the flame from his right hand onto his left hand, then back from his left hand to his right hand. He then looked at a target set up on the side and flicked his hand to throw the flame at it.
"Boom!"
The flame in Chen Haoran's hand, like a missile, directly blasted onto the target, instantly burning it into black charcoal, which fell to the ground and turned into ashes.
Looking at his masterpiece, the excited expression on his face couldn't be concealed.
"Wow, this is amazing!"
"This is what my abilities should look like."
"S.H.I.E.L.D., you've made me who I am. I love you!"
Outside the laboratory, Ward looked at Kabuto and asked, "Compared to ninjas, how does this level of power measure up?"
Kabuto, now quite interested in Chen Haoran's transformation, didn't expect to find such abilities on Earth. It seemed somewhat similar to awakening a bloodline limit.
However, merely controlling fire and creating flames was only slightly interesting.
After some thought, Kabuto then said, "We're not sure yet what other enhancements he has. However, based on what he has shown so far, his strength is comparable to that of a genin ninja."
"But since he hasn't undergone systematic training, it's uncertain how much of his strength he can truly utilize."
Hearing Kabuto's analysis, Ward nodded inwardly, thinking, "Indeed, with the enhancement of the physical enhancement serum, Chen Haoran, who was originally a nobody, has skyrocketed in power."
At this moment, Coulson walked in, picked up the microphone on the table, and said, "Agent Chen Haoran, please undergo a physical examination to confirm that the physical enhancement serum hasn't caused any other harm to you."
"Afterward, you will be scheduled for a strength test."
Hearing Coulson's voice from inside the room, Chen Haoran stopped.
"Okay, Agent Coulson!"
Then the laboratory door was opened, and several medical personnel in white coats began to examine Chen Haoran.
Coulson then put down the microphone and looked at Kabuto, saying, "Kabuto, I'll need you to assess Chen's strength later."
"The testing ground has already been prepared for you. Come with me."
"Okay."
Saying this, Coulson walked to the front, and Ward and Barton followed. They were also interested in how the second person in the bureau, who had taken the physical enhancement serum, would perform.
Kabuto knew that Ward had brought him here to observe Chen Haoran's changes, indicating that there would be some tests.
As they walked toward the training ground ahead, Coulson approached Kabuto and said, "Defeating him shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Hearing Coulson's words, Kabuto smiled and said, "I'm not sure, but if he was just an ordinary person before without any kind of training, there shouldn't be any problem."
"After all, he has just gained his abilities, and it will take some time to adapt."
Coulson nodded, then continued, "Try to let him demonstrate his abilities as much as possible. After he has shown what he can do, it would be best to defeat him easily."
"I'll do my best."
Soon, Coulson led everyone to a spacious training ground. The area was larger than the one Kabuto had used to spar with Barton previously.
After arriving at the scene, Coulson said to Hawkeye on the side, "Barton, you'll be the referee later. If Chen behaves inappropriately, stop him immediately."
"Yes!"
"Ward, let's leave the field to them. We'll go."
Then Ward and Coulson went to Nick Fury's side, where there was a huge screen showing the scene of the test site.
Nick Fury saw Coulson and Ward come in and then spoke up, "Take a seat, let's see the performance of our new agent, Chen Haoran, together."
Without making Kabuto wait long, a special agent soon brought Chen Haoran to the testing site.
"Chen, this is S.H.I.E.L.D.'s ninja, Special Agent Kabuto. He'll be in charge of testing your abilities later."
Upon hearing the introduction, Chen Haoran glanced at Kabuto in the field and asked somewhat surprised, "Has he also injected the physical enhancement serum?"
The agent who was asked took a moment to think and then replied, "Probably."
Chen Haoran nodded thoughtfully and then walked to the center of the field. At this moment, Barton suddenly jumped down from the roof on one side and landed between the two.
Barton's sudden action startled Chen Haoran, and at the same time, he realized that there were many talented individuals in S.H.I.E.L.D.
"I'm Barton, and I'll be the referee for your sparring match."
"Are both of you ready?"
"Ready!"
"Then, let the match begin!"
With Barton's words, he swung the hook in his hand towards the railing on the side of the roof. As the hook retracted, Barton's figure followed along, appearing on the nearby rooftop to watch the match.
Seeing the referee disappear, Chen Haoran looked at Kabuto in front of him. Thinking that the latter had joined S.H.I.E.L.D. before him, Chen knew that Kabuto must have more combat experience than him. Therefore, he decided to take the initiative.
Immediately, flames rose in Chen Haoran's hand, forming fireballs that he threw at Kabuto.
Seeing the incoming fireballs, Kabuto smiled and swiftly dodged, moving aside to avoid them.
Chen Haoran's fireballs exploded violently where Kabuto had been standing, but due to his speed, they didn't harm him.
Kabuto then seized the opportunity to throw several shurikens.
The shurikens whizzed towards Chen Haoran even faster than his fireballs.
Seeing the incoming shurikens, Chen Haoran rolled to the side to dodge them. However, due to his enhanced strength from the physical enhancement serum, he rolled too far and ended up slipping and falling embarrassingly.
Seeing this comical scene, Kabuto didn't pursue further but stood still.
At this moment, Chen Haoran felt a bit embarrassed and looked back at the trail he left behind, wishing he could dig a hole and hide in it.
