Chapter 812 Marvel Side Story (Part 4)
Five years have passed in the blink of an eye.
Over the years, more and more news has reached Earth, most of which is about Uehara Naraku leading the Akatsuki organization to seize planets on a large scale.
In order to resolve a crisis that could destroy the universe, the Avengers, who had been divided for many years, finally began to reconnect and communicate again, thanks to the efforts of Nick Fury, Thanos, Loki, and others.
In terms of both knowledge and power, Thanos was undoubtedly the mastermind behind their counterattack plan, because only Thanos had ever come so close to defeating Uehara Naraku…
Although he was actually beaten quite badly by Uehara Naraku...
"Carol Danvers has been relaying information to Akatsuki..."
Thanos stood before a virtual screen and said softly, "We received news last time that Uehara Naraku had devoured another massive galaxy, so..."
"Wait, let me interrupt for a moment."
Nick Fury made a pause gesture and continued, "Based on observations from Earth, there should be at least hundreds of billions of galaxies in the universe. Even if Uehara devoured one galaxy every day..."
Not every day.
Thanos's voice gradually deepened, and he snapped his fingers with his enormous hand: "In just one second, he devoured a galaxy, as easily as snapping his fingers, and he can appear anywhere in the universe at any time..."
"Okay, I'll ask again."
Nick Fury snapped his fingers and shouted, "Can someone do the math for me? Uehara Naraku can devour a galaxy in one second. Even if we consider galaxies with trillions of stars as one second... how long would it take him to devour the entire universe?"
"Sir, 3960."
Jarvis's mechanical voice echoed in the room.
The room was completely silent.
Steve Rogers and the others exchanged glances. Upon hearing the number, they instinctively breathed a sigh of relief, as they had assumed it would take an extremely long time.
"It seems we still have plenty of time to refine the plan..."
Steve Rogers' eyes showed a clearer relaxation.
"You guys really are..."
Thanos, Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Shuri, along with the other scientists, covered their foreheads in exasperation, looking as if they couldn't bear to look at them.
For the first time, they realized the importance of knowledge.
"call…"
Tony Stark took a deep breath, suppressing his anger, and forced a smile, saying, "Now, should I introduce you to Einstein? When a person's speed exceeds that of light, time is no longer..."
"Stark".
Thanos interrupted Tony Stark, glancing at Steve Rogers and the others, and said softly, "That kind of explanation is too troublesome. Let me handle it..."
Thanos placed his hand on the table and began his explanation: "The universe is vast, and the flow of time is different in every galaxy and even on every planet."
This also means that one second we are here, compared to Uehara Naraku, may have been a hundred or even ten thousand years in another corner of the universe…”
"etc…"
Spider-Man, Peter Parker, raised his hand and cautiously asked, "I'd like to ask, is the human lifespan really that long?"
"This isn't a matter of lifespan..."
Thanos remained calm and unperturbed by Peter Parker's question: "It's a matter of time. A hundred years, ten thousand years, are all just a second to Uehara Naraku..."
"But…"
Peter Parker hadn't figured out the theory yet.
Tony Stark looked even more exasperated. He rubbed his temples and said, "Jarvis, Friday, anyone will do, gag Parker..."
"Wait, Mr. Stark... Ughhhhhh!"
Peter Parker wanted to say something more, but his spider-nano suit suddenly activated, sealing his mouth shut!
"I'll find some time to have Jarvis tutor him."
Tony Stark looked at Thanos with a hint of apology in his eyes, his hands fidgeting haphazardly. "We've all watched Parker grow up. You know, he hasn't been out of college for long, and I donated a building to get him admitted to MIT as a graduate student..."
"I know very well."
Thanos's face remained calm.
That's outrageous.
Spider-Man has been following these neutral Avengers since high school, and Tony Stark, Bruce Banner, and Thanos happen to be some of the most knowledgeable members of the entire Avengers team. Even Doctor Strange, who has always had a very low profile, is a doctor...
result…
Peter Parker, the little spider, didn't learn anything from them; he only learned how to deal with terrorists faster and more covertly.
This is very embarrassing.
Obviously.
These highly educated and knowledgeable individuals aren't very good at raising children; perhaps they're better at spoiling kids, which has led them to raise Peter Parker in a completely different way.
"I think you should be more direct..."
Doctor Strange spoke softly in defense, explaining, "Let's just say it straight: the human body and soul have finite energy..."
"No, no, no, I think that's even harder to understand!"
Tony Stark quickly interrupted Dr. Strange, retorting loudly, "We're discussing science, not your wizarding theology. Don't corrupt our innocent little ones..."
"Stark, Peter Parker has grown up!"
Dr. Strange once again invoked his enduring pedagogical principle: "You can't always treat him like a child..."
"Mmmmmm!"
Peter Parker nodded his little head rapidly.
"Okay, he's grown up."
Tony Stark nodded helplessly, then changed the subject, continuing, "But what I'm trying to say is that he's still a student. He's going to MIT in a few days. What he needs is scientific knowledge, not your stuff..."
"stop!"
Finally, someone couldn't take it anymore.
Natasha Romanoff loudly interrupted the argument, saying helplessly, "Shouldn't we be discussing Uehara Naraku now, not how you raised a baby, okay? Can we get down to business now?"
"..."
Everyone present was stunned by Natasha.
Tony Stark choked for a moment, glanced at Dr. Strange, and reluctantly shut his mouth.
"You only need to know one thing..."
Dr. Strange stood up and said in a deep voice, "Even setting aside his powers, the Time Stone alone is enough to suggest he possesses an immortal lifespan..."
After saying that, Dr. Strange, fearing that Tony Stark would argue again, added, "Furthermore, this also means that time has no meaning to him. He can manipulate time with impunity, and sooner or later, he will be manipulating time and devouring the entire universe in a second..."
"..."
The room fell silent again.
Compared to Thanos and Tony Stark's theories, Dr. Strange's explanation is clearly more straightforward; at least they understand the dire situation they face.
In this somber moment, Loki smiled and said, "If that's the case... in order to save the universe from being swallowed up at any moment, shouldn't we start thinking of a solution immediately...?"
"That's right."
Thanos gave Loki a rare, honest look and said in a deep voice, "To defeat Uehara Naraku, we must collect all the Infinity Stones."
However, Uehara Naraku used scheming to seize all the Infinity Stones from the very beginning. With these gems in his hands, no one in the universe can defeat him.
"However, it's not entirely hopeless..."
Bruce Banner picked up the conversation, saying softly, "We've obtained the data from the Pym particle and quantum space theory, and the first experiment on time travel has been successful. It's time for us to begin preparing for action..."
