Chapter 252: Captain America becomes DC's Superman!

Crack!

Mid-battle, Thor extended his hammer, summoning a massive bolt of lightning that struck Carol Danvers.

Thor thought that this bolt of lightning would be a game-changer, but to his surprise, Carol Danvers just stood there, unfazed. She didn't flinch or dodge, allowing the lightning to strike her without a scratch.

Thor was taken aback. More intense lightning surged around his hammer, but Carol Danvers remained nonchalant, even folding her arms leisurely.

"Wow, what's up with this woman? Why isn't the lightning affecting her?" Thor was astonished.

Boom!

Carol Danvers leaped high into the air and delivered a powerful punch that flipped Thor's hammer and created a large crater on the ground.

Then, with one hand, she grabbed a handful of Thor's flowing blonde hair and tossed him into the sky!

Carol Danvers followed suit, flying upwards to continue their battle in mid-air.

This time, both of them soared into the clouds, engaging in a fight above the ground. People on the ground witnessed thick bolts of lightning flashing within the clouds, a truly awe-inspiring sight.

Boom!

After battling in the sky for a while, Carol Danvers fell to the ground, lying there.

"Do you know what you need?" Thor placed his hammer on Carol Danvers.

"A strong drink and a two-week vacation in Hawaii," Carol Danvers attempted to get up, but the weight of the hammer pinned her down, making it impossible.

"You need a timeout," Thor said. "My mother used timeouts to punish me, but I never used them. Maybe they'll work on you, since you're the party pooper."

"Carol isn't a match for Thor?" Watching this, Nick Fury sounded surprised.

"Fury, why do you sound so shocked?" Thor replied, "Can't I defeat Captain Marvel? Is my strength really inferior to hers?"

"Thor, I've always believed that your strength is indeed inferior to Carol's," Nick Fury didn't sugarcoat it and directly stated that Thor was weaker.

"But you've seen it, I won," Thor argued.

"This battle alone doesn't prove anything," Steve Rogers chimed in. "Battles are fleeting and unpredictable. Sometimes even a single wrong breath can lead to defeat. One win or loss doesn't determine who's stronger."

"Thor, you've seen it, your lightning is useless against her," Loki ruthlessly dismantled Thor's argument.

"You make it sound like lightning is the only trick up my sleeve," Thor replied.

"But isn't lightning your most powerful move?" Loki retorted. "If you can't even overcome her immunity to lightning, how can you claim to be stronger?"

"Is being able to withstand lightning the only criterion for being stronger than me? Then insulators would be stronger than me," Thor said. "But what's up with Carol? She seems immune to lightning."

"Fury said you're the best, that one punch from you can withstand ten nuclear bombs." In the video, Maria Hill spoke to Carol Danvers, "Your cat can even swallow an entire battalion."

"If I go all out, I'd leave a massive crater on Earth. Taking down KK Frenzy Man isn't worth such a risk," Carol Danvers explained her failure.

"What about South Dakota?" Daisy Lewis suggested, "Or North Dakota?"

At that moment, Jane Foster received a call from Thor. "Jane, when can I see you again? You're the kindest and most beautiful woman from Midgard I've met."

"How many Earth women have you met?" Jane Foster asked.

"Two," Thor said, "But the other one threw a bridge at me, and boy, it hurt more than just my face."

"Thor, please be honest with me." Jane Foster chuckled at Thor's words and then asked, "Did you really destroy that planet at the last party on Alpha Centauri?"

"No, I didn't!" Thor denied, "That wasn't even a planet, at most, it was a meteor. And it was already burning up; we just gave it a little nudge."

"So, no one got hurt?" Jane Foster asked.

"Of course not, not even the little goat, Gary, who safely made it home," Thor said.

"I think I understand why Earth wants to use nuclear bombs against Thor. It's because he throws parties that destroy the Earth," Stephen Strange commented upon seeing this.

"What kind of joke is this? How could a party destroy the Earth?" Thor exclaimed.

"Didn't you hear what was said in the video just now? Your party on Alpha Centauri did destroy that planet," Stephen Strange said.

"I also said that the planet was already burning up," Thor replied.

"No, Thor, that's just your explanation, probably an attempt to defend yourself in front of a girl, not necessarily trustworthy," Tony Stark shook his head. "In the video, you showed no regard for Earth at all. With so many people on the streets, you swung your hammer around without hesitation and toppled the Stonehenge. I believe that subjectively, you didn't intend to destroy Earth, but your actions could very well lead to that consequence."

"And it's not just you coming to Earth; it's a whole bunch of aliens," Steve Rogers added. "Your destructive ability might be limited alone, but 'strength in numbers' applies here. With those aliens, it's possible to destroy Earth."

"Thor, I really can't understand why you've become such an egomaniac," Natasha Romanoff said. "The current you might be a bit narcissistic sometimes, but you're not as recklessly self-indulgent as before, not caring about the harm you cause others just for your own enjoyment. That version of you is truly a jerk."

"I think it might have something to do with Loki," Bruce Banner said.

"Big guy, you're trying to pin this on me?" Loki disavowed the blame, "In the video, Thor and I aren't brothers. I wasn't adopted by Odin, and you've seen it; I look like a Frost Giant."

"It's probably because Odin didn't adopt you that he only had one son, and that spoiled him," Bruce Banner said.

"I've been spoiled?" Thor shook his head, "This is too absurd."

"I actually think Bruce has a point; your behavior is that of a complete playboy, a wealthy young man," Steve Rogers said.

"That's a good idea." In the video, Maria Hill made a decision, "The Mojave Desert can withstand that level of attack."

"Lead him to Siberia and blow him up directly," Carol Danvers suggested.

"Are you guys serious?" Jane Foster quickly intervened, "We're not going to blow him up."

"We're talking about the fate of an entire planet." Maria Hill said.

"He's a bit clueless, that's for sure, and he's not the most likable version." Jane Foster said, "This plan is too radical; I won't let it happen."

"Thank you for your professional guidance, Dr. Foster, but we no longer need your assistance." Maria Hill directly threw Jane Foster and Daisy Lewis onto the street.

Meanwhile, Carol Danvers led Thor into a snowy expanse.

"Prepare the nuclear warhead." Maria Hill gave the order.

"What?" Phil Coulson was surprised, "I thought she was the warhead."

"To prevent her from getting distracted by a cat." Maria Hill started the countdown, "Countdown: five, four, three, two..."

"What about Captain Marvel?" Phil Coulson asked.

"She'll be fine." Maria Hill said, "One."

Then, her finger pressed the launch button.

In the snowy field, Carol Danvers and Thor were about to engage in battle.

"Thor, Prince of Asgard." Just as the situation was about to reach a climax, a figure of light and shadow suddenly appeared, "Odin's only son, what are you doing?"

"Mother!" Thor exclaimed.

This woman of light and shadow was Frigga, the Queen of Asgard.

"Mother?" Carol Danvers, Phil Coulson, Maria Hill, and the others were all surprised by Frigga's identity.

"What are you doing?" Thor asked, "You must have used a lot of dark magic to track my whereabouts."

"Someone came to see me; she's very worried about you," Frigga said.

"What?" Thor realized, "Did Jane betray me?"

"She said you're in Midgard," Frigga said.

"She got it wrong; I'm obviously studying in my study," Thor started to lie, but unfortunately, at that moment, a bear wandered over, let out a roar.

"Don't lie to your mother." Frigga said.

"You mean Earth, right? Sorry, I misunderstood," Thor continued to fabricate, "The locals call this place Earth, yes, that's right, I'm sorry. My apologies for the confusion. I and my study group are here for cultural exchange."

"Cultural exchange?"

"You know how we are, warriors craving knowledge."

"Really? Then I must see it with my own eyes." Frigga said, "I'll cut my trip short."

"You're coming here?" Thor was taken aback.

"My dear son, I hope that when I arrive, I'll see your full study plan." Frigga clapped her hands, and in a rainbow bridge of light, she disappeared.

"A rare opportunity, Hill." In the background, Crossbones reminded Maria Hill to launch the nuclear warhead.

"Stand down, we're done." Maria Hill said.

"We'll never have a chance to launch the nuclear warhead," Crossbones said regretfully.

The screen darkened, and the video ended there.

"It really was a close call. If Queen Frigga of Asgard had arrived a moment later, Thor would have been hit by a nuclear warhead," Tony Stark said. "I have to say, I'm quite disappointed."

"Disappointed?" Thor immediately responded, "If that nuclear warhead had actually been launched, I would be dead! Even though my body is far sturdier than an Earthling's, I still wouldn't withstand a nuclear blast."

"But Captain Marvel could." Steve Rogers said, "Hill isn't the least bit concerned that the warhead would harm Carol."

"To be able to withstand a nuclear warhead, this woman is extraordinary." Loki, who wasn't easily impressed, also acknowledged Captain Marvel's power.

"What about Fury?" Scott Lang asked, "From start to finish, Maria Hill was giving orders; where was Fury?"

"Perhaps in this parallel universe, let's call it Universe 11," Tony Stark said, "Maybe here, Nick Fury isn't the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Maria Hill is?"

"No, I think it's more likely that something happened to Fury, preventing him from fulfilling his role as director, so Maria Hill had to step in temporarily," Bruce Banner said.

"Why do you say that?" Thor asked.

"There isn't really substantial evidence, just that Carol mentioned at the beginning of her fight with you, 'This one's for Fury'," Bruce Banner told Thor. "Why would she be fighting you on Fury's behalf? Because you hurt Fury."

"Carol is an old friend of Fury's, but afterwards, all interactions with Carol were handled by Maria Hill. Fury never appeared throughout, which also speaks to this," Steve Rogers said, "If it was merely because Fury isn't the director, then he should be the one to receive Carol. But he didn't; Fury got hurt and couldn't show himself. That would make more sense."

[Question Ten Begins. Please be prepared.]

[Who did Captain America Steve Rogers choose as his successor?]

[A) Spider-Man Peter Parker]

[B) Hawkeye Clint Barton]

[C) Falcon Sam Wilson]

[D) Winter Soldier Bucky Barnes]

[Correct answer grants the ability to emit shockwaves from both eyes. Wrong answer deducts one year from lifespan.]

"Wow, emitting shockwaves from both eyes?" Tony Stark got excited at the sight of this reward, "Captain can already fly; if he gains this ability, wouldn't he become Superman from the comics?"

"Indeed, he might as well change his name to Clark," Stephen Strange said.

"I don't deserve it; the Superman in the comics is way more powerful than me," Steve Rogers said, "If he were around, villains like Thanos and Hela wouldn't be a challenge for him."

"Captain is already choosing a successor?" Natasha Romanoff looked at Steve Rogers and said, "Look at this Captain before us, in his prime and giving off the feeling that he could fight forever. And he's actually considering a successor?"

"In his prime?" Steve Rogers smiled, "Natasha, standing before you is a hundred-year-old man."

"Hundred years old is your age; your body is in its prime," Phil Coulson said.

"I've actually been wanting to ask, soldier, will you ever age?" Loki asked.

"Of course I will." Steve Rogers said, "Although I'm a super soldier, the serum just makes my body stronger; it doesn't grant me immortality. My aging might be slower than a normal person's, but in a few decades, I'll also have gray hair and wrinkles. A strong gust of wind might even knock me over."
