Nick Fury saw that Hidan was running out of the barrier. Witnessing the dissipation of the barrier, and now watching the approaching enemies leave arrogantly, Nick Fury felt a burning anger.
He immediately ordered, "Capture them!"
Agent Coulson hurriedly intervened, "Director, now is not the time to attack them."
"Our missiles won't leave them behind."
Hearing Coulson's words, Nick Fury also calmed down; attacking now would only increase casualties.
"Let them go."
"Prepare to retrieve the members of the Sound Village later."
With Nick Fury changing his command, Coulson also breathed a sigh of relief. As long as it wasn't an attack, it was ok. The current equipment of S.H.I.E.L.D. posed no threat to the individuals in front of them.
The five Sound Village ninjas remained on high alert, watching Hidan and Itachi. They assumed defensive postures.
"Let's go!"
"Swoosh, swoosh!"
Hidan and Itachi used Body Flicker Technique and left the scene. The exhibition match for today had concluded, and they needed to fulfill the new mission assigned by Lord Charles.
Seeing Hidan and Itachi leave, the Sound Village ninjas visibly relaxed.
They had heard some rumors about the individuals who had just appeared.
S-rank rogue ninja from Konoha – Uchiha Itachi, the one who wiped out the Uchiha clan, and the one Lord Orochimaru had always been obsessed with.
Now that the immediate threat had passed, Kimimaro, who had released his Stage Two state, adjusted his clothing was approached by Tayuya with concern.
"Lord Kimimaro, is your body okay?"
Kimimaro moved his body a bit, and the usually calm and composed figure showed a faint smile, "I've never been better."
Looking at the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents and the smoke-shrouded S.H.I.E.L.D. building, Kimimaro spoke, "The bounty mission is over. Let's go collect our reward."
…
Inside Charles's base-
After watching the entire performance, Charles smiled.
"The fish is taking the bait. Now let's see the performance of Kimimaro and the others."
…
Meanwhile, Pierce, in the Hydra base, marveled at the strength of the ninja. If Hydra had such power, global dominance would be effortlessly achieved.
Then Pierce gave orders, "Speed up the contact with Hidan. We must find them."
"As long as they have demands, and we have what they need, we can exchange it for their assistance."
"Yes, sir!"
Then Pierce inquired again, "How's Ward's body test going? Any side effects?"
"Sir, based on our observation during this period, there have been no changes. The body-enhancing serum shows no issues."
"And regarding the werewolf corpse sent in, we've started dissecting and researching it. Unfortunately, without a live specimen, we can't extract useful information."
Pierce pondered for a moment before saying, "Since it was found in the UK, send someone there. Develop a device from this werewolf's corpse to detect them. We'll find these guys and gather the information we need."
"Also, accelerate the collection of Vibranium. We can use it to get what we want from them."
"Yes, sir!"
...
S.H.I.E.L.D. Triskelion Tower-
On the ground floor of the building, the fire has been completely extinguished, and the evacuated civilian staff have returned.
Many agents are cleaning up the scene on the ground floor, but the only trouble is the completely destroyed bridge connecting the base to the outside, which requires time to rebuild.
In a meeting room, Coulson sat in front of the Sound Village ninjas.
"Thank you very much for your substantial assistance. Although it's regrettable we couldn't capture the rogue ninja Hidan."
Tayuya, in charge of negotiations, interrupted, "Since we've taken action, there's no way we can accept anything less than the full reward."
"Otherwise, even if we weren't able to leave Hidan behind, but there's no problem keeping all of you here."
After these words, Tayuya slammed the flute she held onto the table.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, the stainless steel table, while not splitting into pieces, had countless cracks on its surface.
In another room, Nick Fury observed every move in the meeting room through a one-way mirror. His expression was not pleasant; these ninjas were indeed too arrogant.
The development of the Tesseract had to be accelerated; S.H.I.E.L.D. could not lack countermeasures against these ninjas.
Coulson waved his hand, feeling the need to clarify, "Gentlemen, you've misunderstood. We had no intention of reneging on our deal."
At this moment, Jirobo suddenly stood up, walking to the glass wall of the meeting room.
Watching Jirobo's actions, Coulson looked a bit nervous as he gazed at the other side. Suddenly, Jirobo threw a punch at the glass wall.
"Boom!"
The bulletproof glass, while not shattered, was pierced by Jirobo's punch, and cracks covered the surface without breaking apart.
Jirobo then tore down the entire mirrored wall, revealing Nick Fury and several agents on the other side.
The sudden change startled Coulson, but Nick Fury immediately signaled his subordinates not to act recklessly and drawing any weapons.
After looking at Nick Fury and his team, Jirobo said, "If you wanted to see something, just come over here for an open and honest conversation. Hiding behind is a behavior of cowards."
After saying this, Jirobo didn't do anything else and returned to his original position.
This action evidently told Nick Fury that they knew everything about his little schemes.
Nick Fury remained calm, hiding his real expression from others.
"Since you generously invited us, we won't be polite."
After saying this, Nick Fury brought his subordinates and sat next to Coulson, but the communication was still left to his capable subordinate, Coulson.
Seeing Nick Fury and his team sit down, Tayuya smiled and said: "This is what communication should be like, hiding behind is too boring."
Coulson coughed and then said, "We've already prepared the reward for your mission. The base you need has been arranged on Staten Island, in Zone 1 of New York."
"Though there are fewer people there, the area of the base is larger, covering 15 acres, equivalent to the size of 25 basketball courts, and it had been fully furnished, ready for immediate occupancy."
"If you want to make any modifications to the base, it is also very convenient."
"As for the promised 250 energy cubes, they will be delivered shortly, and you can take them away when they arrive."
Hearing Coulson's response, Tayuya finally nodded in satisfaction.
