Tony casually replied, "Just over the past few days-Coulson's reports, Selvig's notes, articles on extraction theory..."

He then added in disbelief, "Am I the only one doing homework?"

As they continued discussing how Loki might use the Tesseract, Barton and his mind- controlled team were already in action.

High above, in a secluded corner of the helicarrier, Syd, who had been quietly observing the scenery, suddenly narrowed his eyes and looked into the distance.

"It's starting..."

A black jet was rapidly approaching from afar.

The helicarrier's radar had already picked up the incoming jet.

A female operator was trying to establish communication.

"Transport 66B, please input your confirmation code. We have your information, but there's no record of your flight. What are you carrying..."

Inside the jet, Hawkeye Barton smirked slightly and replied, "Weapons and ammunition..."

As he spoke, the team inside the jet prepared their gear, loading their weapons, while Barton picked up a specially crafted bow.

As the crew on the helicarrier conversed-sometimes even argued-Barton positioned himself at the open rear door of the jet, nocked an arrow, and slowly drew his bow.

With a whoosh, the arrow, equipped with a small explosive, embedded itself in the helicarrier's outer hull.

Boom! A massive fireball erupted, accompanied by a thunderous explosion.

In an instant, the helicarrier suffered significant damage, with parts of it breaking off and the entire structure shaking violently.

Tony and the others were stunned but quickly reacted.

Steve grabbed his shield, while Tony sprinted toward his armor...

As they armed themselves, chaos erupted within the helicarrier, with personnel running in all directions.

"Alert! Alert! All hands, attention!"

The warning echoed throughout the helicarrier.

"Engine 3 is out of control..."

Meanwhile, Barton and his team had landed on the helicarrier's deck.

"We can't let them repair the engines!" Barton reminded them.

"Yes, sir."

Simultaneously, due to the sudden turn of events, Dr. Banner, overwhelmed with stress, collapsed to the ground, struggling to suppress something within.

"We'll be okay!"

"Banner, you have to hold on!"

Black Widow, standing by his side, urgently tried to calm him.

Unfortunately, despite her efforts, Dr. Banner lost control and began transforming into the Hulk.

His body swelled, his skin turned green, and his muscles bulged, tearing through his clothes. In no time, with a roar of anger, Banner lost complete control, and the Hulk took over his body.

The Hulk's eyes immediately locked onto the nearest person-Black Widow.

Natasha's heart skipped a beat, knowing things had taken a dire turn. She tried to flee, but after just a few steps, she heard the heavy sounds of pursuit behind her.

Clearly, the Hulk was hot on her trail.

Boom! Boom! Boom! He barreled through everything in his path, smashing through equipment left and right.

Inside the helicarrier's specialized glass cell.

Thanks to his keen hearing, Loki sensed the chaos unfolding and couldn't help but smirk.

Roar! The Hulk's roar echoed.

In a shadowy corner.

Watching the Hulk's rampage, Syd's thoughts wandered.

He knew the Hulk well enough.

Whenever Banner's emotions ran high, he would lose control and transform into the Hulk.

And in Hulk form, his body was governed by a simple, primal consciousness-Hulk.

The Hulk not only possessed an incredibly tough body, almost indestructible, but also had extraordinary regenerative abilities.

Most importantly, the angrier he got, the stronger he became.

And as everyone knew, the Hulk's power came from a gamma radiation experiment.

Syd rubbed his chin, feeling a bit uncertain. He vaguely remembered that the Hulk's power source wasn't just gamma radiation but was also linked to a powerful entity.

Shaking his head, Syd decided not to dwell too much on the Hulk. His attention returned to the unfolding chaos, ready to enjoy the show.

At that moment, Thor arrived nearby, coming face to face with the Hulk.

With curiosity in his eyes, Syd watched as the Hulk swung his fist at Thor.

Boom! Thor raised his hand to block, struggling to withstand the Hulk's blow.

The sight surprised Syd.

It showed that the difference in strength between the two wasn't as significant as one might

think.

But this was in Hulk's base state.

"I wonder if, when my divine body reaches level five, I'll be able to physically match the

Hulk?"

Watching Thor struggle, Syd felt unsure.

"Maybe, with the aid of Mjolnir?"

He recalled how Mjolnir had previously empowered him, making his body incredibly strong.

And Mjolnir was always just a call away; as long as it was on Earth, he could summon it at any

time.

It would take only a moment for Mjolnir to fly into his hand.

"Banner, stop!"

"I'm not your enemy!"

Thor tried to reason with the Hulk, but the Hulk ignored him, sending Thor flying with a

powerful punch.

It seemed like the Hulk's beastly instincts were highly attuned, as he suddenly turned and looked in the direction where Syd was hiding.

The next second, the Hulk charged toward him, smashing through everything in his path.

Syd blinked in surprise.

He had just been wondering if he could take on the Hulk, and now the Hulk was charging at

him?

He had no interest in engaging with the brute.

But the Hulk didn't care about what Syd wanted; he saw Syd standing there and found him to

be a nuisance.

Roar! With a roar, the Hulk swung a massive fist at Syd.

Syd shook his head, not willing to indulge the Hulk, and casually raised his hand, which began

to glow red.

The next second, the raging Hulk froze, his entire body lifting off the ground.

Boom! In a blink, the Hulk was flung away, crashing into the ground some distance away,

looking rather disheveled.

At that moment, Thor, who had been lying on the ground, recovered and quickly got to his feet. He grabbed Mjolnir, ready to teach Banner a lesson, but then he saw the scene before

him.

Thor was shocked.

When did Banner get knocked down? With such a strong body, who could have done that? Instinctively, Thor turned his gaze forward, but there was nothing there-no one in sight.

Thor was puzzled.

"Roar!"

By then, the Hulk had gotten back up.

He was furious and felt humiliated.

His simple mind couldn't understand how he had been thrown like that.

He looked around but couldn't find the one who had tossed him; all he saw was Thor, and the

Hulk redirected his anger toward him.

Seeing this, Thor raised Mjolnir and charged.

With a loud bang, the Hulk, unaware of Mjolnir's power, was sent flying with a single hit.

As the two clashed. Standing at a distance, Syd watched the battle while pondering something important.

"Speaking of which, the Battle of New York is about to start. I wonder if the Time Variance

Authority will show up?"

Syd's expression grew serious.
