Chapter 806: Akatsuki's Intern, Only I Can Bully Her!
Chapter 806: Akatsuki's Intern, Only I Can Bully Her!
Usually.
There can only be one planet rotating in an orbit.
However, a strange scene appeared in a region of space in the universe. In the orbit of a planet, there were two planets, and these two planets could attract and collide with each other at any time.
One of them was the desolate and barren, Titan, and the other was the prosperous and flourishing New Planet. They seemed to be forcibly balanced by brute force.
And on the desolate Titan, there appeared a tall Heavenly Throne, towering into the clouds, even in space, it was very eye-catching!
When Thanos's spaceship arrived here, he saw this interstellar spectacle. He almost thought he had come to the wrong place. His home planet Titan didn't have any neighboring planets nearby, nor any huge thrones...
However, the star map doesn't lie.
Was this done by the Akatsuki Organization?
Just as Thanos on the spaceship couldn't help but be somewhat shocked by the Akatsuki Organization's bold move, he suddenly noticed that the planet near Titan seemed familiar...
This planet...Seemed like one he had been to before...
A bit like the one he had set his sights on...
Seems like the one he would retire to in the future...
Thanos looked at the image and couldn't help but feel amazed at how similar the two planets were. Even the plants on them were identical to the unique plants of Titan...
Wait a minute...
Thanos's mood suddenly sank.
The Akatsuki Organization couldn't have brought over a nameless planet for no reason, right?
Just at this moment, a strong gravitational force suddenly pulled the spaceship down, causing most of the people on board to tremble and fall to the ground involuntarily!
"No need to be nervous."
A leisurely voice echoed on the spaceship, gently soothing everyone's panic like a gentle spring, "Just guiding you to land, I don't want this desolate planet to stir up a sandstorm..."
Under the influence of this gravity, the spaceship slowly stopped tens of meters above the ground, and the people in the spaceship gradually calmed down.
The spaceship's teleportation channel was activated.
Thanos picked up his double-edged sword and landed on the ground of Titan first, followed closely by Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive followed closely behind, holding Captain Marvel, Carol Danvers.
They saw their enemies waiting for them.
On the Heavenly Throne in Titan, Uehara Naraku sat with a black robe embroidered with red clouds draped over him, his hand supporting his cheek, a gentle smile hanging around his mouth at an inappropriate time.
And beside the throne.
Seven uneven figures stood guard around.
It was indeed the senior members of the Akatsuki Organization such as Uchiha Madara and Dormammu. Gamora was bound with her hands behind her back, standing beside them silently.
Uehara Naraku's gaze fell on Thanos, and the smile on his lips became even softer, "Welcome home, Lord Thanos."
"..."
Thanos's brows furrowed slightly. He looked up at his desolate and barren home planet, then slowly turned his head to look at Uehara Naraku while saying in a deep voice, "Do you want to use my home planet as my burial place?"
"You could say that..."
Uehara Naraku spread his hand, chuckling as he explained, "Whether it's being buried in one's home planet or achieving hegemony in one's home planet, it should be considered a blessing in life, right?"
A faint light flickered in Uehara Naraku's palm, and the five Infinity Stones floated up and down in his hand. He said softly, "Look, with the Power Stone you just obtained, all the Infinity Stones in the universe are here..."
Uehara Naraku looked up at Thanos with a serious expression and continued with a smile, "As long as you defeat me, you can have everything you want..."
"..."
Thanos clenched the hilt of his sword tightly.
Even he hadn't expected that Uehara Naraku and the Akatsuki Organization would actually get hold of five Infinity Stones. This also meant that the battle starting on Titan would determine the fate of the entire universe!
As long as he could win...
The ideal balance he had fought for his whole life could be achieved!
Of course...
If he failed...
"I'm curious, what do you want to do?"
Thanos planted his double-edged sword into the ground, reached out to touch his Infinity Gauntlet, and stared at Uehara Naraku, "If you get all the Infinity Stones, what do you want to do with this universe?"
"There's no need to worry about that."
Uehara Naraku slowly put away all the stones, saying indifferently, "For me, what I want to do can still be achieved even without them... The Infinity Stones are just a collection that I enjoy. They hold significant value in terms of collectibles."
Obviously.
The two of them couldn't see eye to eye at all.
Originally, Thanos thought that Uehara Naraku might also be a guy with ideals, but he didn't expect this guy to treat the Infinity Stones, which he had pursued all his life, as mere collectibles...
Who did this guy think he was?
Why does he resemble that useless Collector from Knowhere so much?
"Well, let's exchange hostages first!"
Uehara Naraku suddenly opened his hand and pulled Gamora to his side. He looked at Thanos and said, "Although you haven't given me the Power Stone yet, bringing it to Titan has already completed the task, so I'll give your daughter back to you!"
In the next moment, a repulsive force suddenly pushed out!
Gamora's body involuntarily flew backward!
Thanos quickly reached out his wrist, caught Gamora around her waist, and placed her on the ground. He reached out and slowly stroked Gamora's hair, his eyes not hiding his tenderness and guilt.
"Are you okay... my child..."
"Let go of me!"
Gamora roared at Thanos with gritted teeth!
This daughter, sacrificed on Vormir by Thanos, evidently hadn't forgotten her resentment toward him. However, more than hatred, there was fear in Gamora's heart!
Because while others in the universe might not know what Thanos was thinking, she, as his daughter, knew very well. If Thanos were to win, half of the universe would be annihilated!
Although Gamora thought the probability of Thanos winning was not high...
Thanos paid no attention to Gamora's outburst, pushing her to the side of Corvus Glaive, "Stay with them and leave. This is not a battle you can participate in..."
"What are you going to do!"
Gamora suppressed her voice, gritted her teeth, and said, "Although you are a bastard, you are still my father after all. Let me tell you, you can't be a match for that guy named Uehara Naraku. You will die here!"
She was here...
Witnessed Uehara Naraku's creation out of thin air!
Furthermore, she witnessed Uehara Naraku's suppression of Thanos on Vormir. The disparity between these two men was evident to her. Otherwise, Uehara Naraku wouldn't have allowed Thanos to take her away...
Just as a hint of relief flashed across Thanos's face and he wanted to say something, Uehara Naraku interrupted him, "Hey, can your father-daughter conversation wait a bit longer?"
Uehara Naraku's gaze shifted to the somewhat embarrassed Captain Marvel and he shouted loudly, "Before that, can you return the intern of our organization?"
"Hehe... of course."
Proxima Midnight sneered, reached out, and pushed Captain Marvel forward a few times, then suddenly pulled out her long spear and stabbed it into Captain Marvel's leg!
She even felt it wasn't enough to relieve her hatred!
The spear in her hand pierced several holes one after another!
"Ahhhh..."
Captain Marvel's painful scream echoed on the planet. Because her injuries were too severe, she could only crawl on the ground struggling to avoid the enemy's abuse!
If it were anyone else, perhaps they would feel angry about this miserable situation, but the others present didn't care because they had seen even more tragic battlefields. Only Gamora was a little uncomfortable, and she spoke up to stop Proxima Midnight's actions.
"Don't do this, they haven't harmed me..."
"Humph..."
Proxima Midnight snorted coldly and looked at Captain Marvel bleeding profusely on the ground. She then sneered and retracted her long spear, looking at Gamora she said, "You are too soft-hearted. You don't know the horror of this woman!"
"Tsk, you're so petty..."
Uehara Naraku sighed.
Uehara Naraku's fingertips suddenly lifted, slowly pointing toward Proxima Midnight, "Although I dislike Carol, she is my subordinate now... It seems I should let the people of this world know that Akatsuki's interns are not to be bullied by anyone!"
In the next moment...
A golden light suddenly shot out!
Thanos swung his double-edged sword to intercept this golden light and said in a deep voice, "Uehara Naraku, I apologize for what my subordinates did..."
"No need for that, I'm not a petty person..."
Uehara Naraku slowly shook his head, retracting his attack with a smile. But before his voice fell, his body suddenly disappeared from the throne and appeared beside Proxima Midnight!
Uehara Naraku's palm tightly grasped Proxima Midnight's neck, smiling as he said, "If apologies could solve everything, what would we, the ones who maintain the order of the universe, need to do?"
Crack!
Before Thanos could react, Uehara Naraku's palm twisted slightly, instantly breaking Midnight's neck!
"You bastard..."
Corvus Glaive swung his glaive at Uehara Naraku. Proxima Midnight was his wife, yet she was killed by Uehara Naraku so brazenly!
"Stop!"
Thanos shouted loudly to Corvus Glaive, his voice cold, "Let Lord Uehara Naraku take back his subordinates. We were in the wrong first..."
"Then thank you very much..."
Uehara Naraku pulled Captain Marvel to her feet with one hand, and a green light appeared on his palm before falling onto Captain Marvel.
As the green light fell, the wounds on Carol Danvers's body slowly healed, and she looked at Uehara Naraku with a complex expression.
"Thank you."
Carol Danvers's mood was quite complicated.
This bastard Uehara Naraku wasn't entirely useless. At least he knew to rescue Akatsuki's companions instead of letting Thanos's men kill her...
Even though this guy knew they had grievances between them.
"Now it's too early to say thank you."
Uehara Naraku nodded his head, motioning for her to stand up, "Intern Carol Danvers, you are the only person in the Akatsuki organization who has failed..."
"Thanos has a terrifying gem in his hand..."
"That's not a reason."
Uehara Naraku interrupted Carol Danvers, saying softly, "Now step aside, and let's settle our accounts after this war..."
"Yes..."
Carol Danvers' body was filled with energy. She clenched her fists tightly beside her legs, and finally slowly lowered her head and retreated to the side.
"Now let's talk about our business!"
Thanos picked up his sword and walked toward Uehara Naraku step by step, "The members of the Akatsuki Organization attacked and killed my subordinates, and you, sir, used me to obtain the Soul Stone. Shouldn't you give me an explanation now..."
"That's a bit too much..."
Uehara Naraku shook his head and explained with a smile, "Lord Thanos dispatched his subordinates, the Chitauri, to collude with Loki to invade Earth. Shouldn't we settle this account first..."
"Are you from Earth?"
Thanos paused his steps for a moment, then continued to walk toward Uehara Naraku without hesitation, "It seems that both of us want to settle accounts with each other, and also want to get the stones in each other's hands..."
"More or less..."
A black reiatsu ball floated out of Uehara Naraku's palm. The ball expanded and contracted instantly, turning into a katana. He grasped the sword in his hand and walked toward Thanos step by step...
"Then there's no need to say more!"
Thanos waved the sword in his hand, slashing toward Uehara Naraku!
