Chapter 119 - Chapter : 74.2

[Black Widow quickly chased down the captain, who was fighting fiercely with Ultron. She stretched out her arm and hurled the shield back toward the captain. Just as she was about to continue the pursuit, Ultron suddenly slammed forward with a brutal move, crashing directly into Black Widow's advance line.]

[Black Widow braked to the absolute limit. The rear wheel of the motorcycle lifted almost vertically from the ground, and the front wheel locked hard against the pavement. The bike stopped with rock-solid stability.]

[With a sharp turn of direction, Black Widow rushed down from the stairs and shot straight onto the main road. "Make way, make way, make way, borrow the lane!"]

[Beep-! Black Widow returned to the road in an instant. However, the two robots inside the carriage caused immense trouble for her breakout attempt.]

["Barton, can you interfere with those two guards?" she asked urgently.]

[Barton steered the aircraft and pulled it into a tight turn. "Sure."]

[After the captain was blasted off the roof by Ultron, he immediately jumped back onto the rooftop and re-engaged in fierce close-quarters combat. At that moment, Barton lined up the aircraft and aimed directly at Ultron. The machine guns erupted with deafening roars.]

[Ultron immediately dispatched two guards to intercept Barton. The robots latched onto the top of the aircraft, attempting to rip it apart and flip it over completely.]

[Barton sharply pulled the control stick, pitching upward at a steep angle. The aircraft spun into a rapid high-altitude rotation and violently flung the two robots away. But only robots could fly, like leeches clinging to bone, they surged back toward Barton again.]

"Black Widow, this is a loudspeaker!"

"I'm laughing myself to death!"

"Black Widow's driving skills are insane, absolutely god-tier!"

"The Black Widow with her own broadcast system!"

"Too bad the captain can't fly!"

"Black Widow's beeping is so cute!"

[Rogers slammed Ultron away with a powerful shield strike, and Ultron crashed through a massive pillar. The next second, Ultron counterattacked suddenly, blasting Rogers clear off the rooftop. He fell straight into the high-speed synchronizing subway on the side.]

[At the same moment, the two robots chasing the plane abruptly reversed direction and flew back. Barton suddenly shouted, "They're heading for you! Use whatever moves you've got!"]

[Inside the subway, Captain Rogers and Ultron were still locked in brutal hand-to-hand combat. Captain Rogers reacted with extreme speed and precision.]

[Bang! Rogers was blasted hard into his seat.]

[Black Widow accelerated rapidly on her motorcycle, closing in on the subway. At the same time, she spoke into the channel, "I'm going in. Captain, can you keep him busy?"]

[Rogers gasped for breath and snapped back, "Then what do you think I've been doing?"]

[Black Widow gunned the throttle and launched her motorcycle straight into the subway compartment.]

[The two robots slammed fully into the carriage, and all their energy blasted downward at once. The entire subway car was driven violently off the ground and shot upward into the sky at terrifying speed.]

[On the regeneration cradle, Black Widow quickly adjusted the settings and forcefully disabled all user-overload permissions.]

[Inside the aircraft, Barton spotted the flying carriage, "The package is airborne. Can I finally fire now?"]

[Black Widow hurriedly shouted, "No! I'm still inside the car!"]

[Barton hesitated. "You still want to, "]

[Black Widow responded instantly, "Prepare to receive! I'm sending you the goods!"]

[Barton immediately understood what Black Widow meant.]

"You may not believe this, but I just saw a truck flying through the sky!"

"Girl courier notification: Your delivery has arrived, please go downstairs to sign for it!"

"Hey! A container is actually flying!"

"Good grief, this whole group really is from the demolition department!"

[Meanwhile, Ultron and Rogers continued their frenzied clash inside the subway. Rogers was gradually pushed into a disadvantage.]

[Suddenly, a violent gust of wind tore through the space, and Ultron was blasted backward in an instant. It was Pietro's speed, then Wanda appeared. Her hands glowed as she manipulated matter itself to block Ultron's advance.]

[Ultron stared at them and said, "Please don't do this."]

[Wanda snapped back in rage, "Do we have any other choice?"]

[Ultron suddenly unleashed a massive shockwave from his palms, and the entire glass wall exploded outward. Ultron shot through the shattered side window and vanished.]

[Rogers sprinted toward the cockpit. The driver was already dead, and the entire subway had entered a state of total unmanned control. "He's gone, heading straight for your position!"]

[Ahead, the subway was about to collide head-on with everything in its path.]

[At the same time, Barton positioned the aircraft directly beneath the falling container, and the rear hatch opened wide. Black Widow cut through the cables binding the regeneration cradle and it slid violently down the slope. The entire regeneration cradle was pulled directly into the aircraft's cabin.]

[But just as Black Widow was about to leap inside, Ultron reached out and seized Black Widow's leg without warning. He dragged her violently backward.]

[Barton shouted in panic, "Natasha! Captain, do you see her!?"]

[Rogers struggled desperately to slow the subway. He shouted hoarsely into the channel, "If you've got the goods, get it to Stark, now!"]

[Barton searched frantically through the storm of debris. "Can you see Natasha!?"]

[Rogers' voice roared through the channel again. "Go! Go now!"]

[Barton slammed his fist against the steering console in fury. The aircraft accelerated and tore away through the sky.]

[Inside the subway, Rogers turned to Pietro and shouted, "There are still pedestrians ahead!"]

[Pietro nodded and vanished in a blur as he charged forward. Then he turned toward Wanda and yelled, "Can you stop the train?"]

[Wanda's hands flared with violent red energy. Outside, Pietro moved at impossible speed, snatching every civilian from the road in a split second. The subway smashed through a house and burst out the other side.]

[Wanda released a massive surge of power. Starting from the subway's chassis, she forcibly countered the momentum of the runaway train. Total force suppression. At last, the subway screeched to a grinding halt in the middle of the street.]

"Damn, that's just unbeatable!"

"The siblings' abilities are completely terrifying!"

"They forcibly stopped a runaway subway. This is insane!"

"Is Pietro teleporting?"

"No, he's just ridiculously fast!"

"Passenger: This train ride was way too exciting!"

"Wanda looks so beautiful when she uses her power."

"Absolutely stunning."

"But what about Black Widow!?"

"Black Widow was taken away by Ultron; he's definitely going to use her to blackmail Tony and the others!"

[Rogers jumped out of the car and looked directly at Wanda and Pietro, "I want to take you all in."]

[Wanda looked at Rogers and asked urgently, "Where's the cradle? Did you secure the cradle?"]

["Stark will handle it," Rogers replied.]

[Wanda immediately shook her head. "No, he won't."]

[Rogers said firmly, "You don't understand the situation. Stark is not a lunatic."]

[Wanda frowned deeply. "He's going to mess up everything."]

[Rogers turned his head and called into the channel, but there was no response.]

[Wanda said coldly, "Ultron doesn't understand the difference between saving the world and destroying it. Don't you know who he learned from?"]

[Rogers remained silent.]

The audience witnessed this scene. Instantly, dissatisfied voices erupted.

"What's going on with Wanda? Does she have a personal grudge against Tony?"

"This is stirring up conflict!"

"Yeah, Tony is obviously protecting the world!"

"People really forget everything! When Tony carried a nuclear bomb into space!"

"No one remembers that?!"

"Damn it! Nobody is allowed to badmouth our Tony!"

"He is our hero!"

"Wanda thinks she understands everything, but she never thought about how many things she did that helped the tyrants?"

[The screen suddenly switched, and it cut straight to Tony's laboratory. The regenerative cradle was placed prominently in the hall.]

[Tony walked in from outside, and Dr. Banner asked anxiously, "Still no news from Natasha?"]

[Tony shook his head. "No. But she's still alive—otherwise Ultron would have already said so."]

[Busy working on the regenerative cradle, Dr. Banner said helplessly, "The seal is too tight. We need to access the program and open it from the inside."]

[Tony paused, turned to Barton, and said, "By the way, is it possible that Natasha left any information outside the Internet? Like a note, or some kind of message?"]

[Barton replied, "I'll find a way to check. Okay."]

[With that, Barton headed toward the basement.]

[Dr. Banner touched the regenerative cradle. "I can deal with the tissue degeneration. If we can destroy the operating system that Dr. Cho implanted."]

[Tony rubbed his head and suddenly said, "Wait, about that..."]

[Before he could finish, he looked at Dr. Banner with his hands in his pockets. Dr. Banner instantly understood and quickly waved his hands. "No, no, no."]

[Tony walked closer. "You have to trust me."]

[Dr. Banner hesitated. "I'm afraid I can't."]

[Tony persuaded him, "Our ally—the one who protected the nuclear launch codes?"]

["I found him." As he spoke, Tony threw the operational panel onto the projection screen. Instantly, Jarvis' program interface appeared.]

[Jarvis said calmly, "Hello, Dr. Banner."]

[Tony explained, "Ultron didn't erase Jarvis because he was angry; he attacked Jarvis because he feared Jarvis' abilities, so Jarvis went underground. Scattered and erased memory, but not the core program."]

[Tony looked firmly at Dr. Banner. "Jarvis didn't even know where he was until I helped him recover."]

[Dr. Banner adjusted his glasses and said uncertainly, "So… you want me… to help you implant Jarvis' program?"]

[Tony shook his head. "No. Of course not."]

[Then he pointed at Dr. Banner. "I'm going to help you implant Jarvis."]

[Dr. Banner was instantly speechless.]

[Tony laughed. "You understand organics better than anyone."]

[Dr. Banner stroked his chin. "Do you really believe Jarvis' operating matrix can surpass Ultron?"]

[Tony answered without hesitation, "Jarvis has already surpassed him internally. This is our chance to generate Ultron's flesh body. But without the murderous flaw—without that twisted personality Ultron thinks is success. There is no other choice."]

[Jarvis' voice echoed again. "I believe it's worth trying."]

[Dr. Banner felt like he was spiraling into madness. He shouted irritably, "I—I'm stuck in a vicious cycle! It's an endless loop, and that's the root of all problems!"]

[Tony rushed over and comforted him. "I know. I know exactly what people will say. And they already have."]

[Tony stared straight at Dr. Banner and said firmly, "We are mad scientists. We're monsters, man. This is what we have to be. Success or failure!"]

[Tony patted Dr. Banner on the shoulder. "This isn't a vicious cycle. This is the end."]

The live room erupted again.

"Jarvis is back?!"

"That's incredible! I thought Jarvis was dead!"

"To evade at the critical moment by himself—that's real intelligence!"

"But… Tony wants to implant Jarvis into Ultron's body?!"

"As expected—geniuses are all insane!"

"If Jarvis already surpassed Ultron logically, doesn't that mean he's stronger now?"

"This is crazy! I thought Tony would destroy Ultron's body!"

"I seriously doubt whether Wanda was wrong."

"Mad scientist—Tony is frighteningly accurate about himself!"

Inside the Administration, the Director asked gravely, "Is it possible that Jarvis has already been successfully transplanted into Ultron's body?"

The scientists fell silent.

After a long time, someone spoke. "The transplantation itself is technically possible but the consequences after success are unimaginable. What if this operation truly perfects Ultron?"

Hawking said worriedly, "Although I don't understand everything here—"

"The risks are obviously enormous." Feng Xiaotian sneered. "Tony clearly knows that if Ultron truly wanted to, the world would already be gone. Yet he still wants to implant Jarvis. Isn't that madness? That idea itself is extremely dangerous."

No one responded.

At the High Council.

"Creating a god?" It wasn't just one Councilor who spoke those words.

Sith trembled slightly, eyes filled with shock. "Creating a god—this entire process is exactly the same as deification! If Tony truly transplanted Jarvis into Ultron's body, as everyone said, Ultron would become invincible."

Hyeon narrowed his eyes. He looked around slowly and said, "Then should we create a god as well?"

Everyone was stunned. Then one by one, they lowered their heads in deep contemplation.

Gladwin spoke slowly, "I believe it is feasible."

Several other Councilors nodded in agreement.

"Seconded!"

"Seconded!"

Kennedy said, "It will be tentatively named the God-Creation Plan. The first target will naturally be the original person. If there are other suitable individuals, they will be listed as reserve candidates."

Once the plan was finalized, multiple Councilors immediately took responsibility for its execution.

Gladwin said gravely, "Ultron's new body has already been taken away, but that won't stop his intent to destroy the world. It may even intensify it."

Meanwhile, across the entire Terra Federation, news spread rapidly. The idea that Tony wanted to implant Jarvis into Ultron's body ignited endless debate. Many people believed that all the disasters of this era were not created by Ultron; they were created by Tony himself. Yet many others firmly believed: Tony was right. It was Tony who ultimately protected that era.

The footage shifted again.

[Tony and Dr. Banner worked together. The Jarvis implantation process progressed smoothly and steadily; the gene collection process reached 97%.]

[At that very moment, a violent whirlwind suddenly erupted within the laboratory. The upload and power supply unit connected to the regenerative cradle was ripped out by Pietro. The entire upload process came to an abrupt halt.]

[At the same time, Wanda, Rogers, and the others rushed into the laboratory at full speed.]
