When Jarvis said, 'The enemy aircraft has launched missiles,' Luca didn't bother waiting for Tony to open the cabin door for him.
The short-range air-to-air missiles equipped on these fighter jets usually only take a few seconds from launch to impact, and even medium-range missiles only extend this time to a few tens of seconds.
There was no time to delay now.
"Erha! Break open the cabin door! Go intercept the missiles!"
At Luca's command, the Erha Mecha had already drawn its lightsaber from its back, swinging it twice to shatter the cabin door, then, along with Five Haro, directly leaped out of the cabin.
As the two mechas 'broke' out, the air pressure inside the plane's cabin instantly became unbalanced.
The howling airflow immediately rushed out, and the messy decorations inside the cabin instantly flew towards the broken door with the violent airflow.
Several oxygen masks popped out from the cabin ceiling, and the entire cabin was in disarray.
Even the plane itself immediately began to shake violently due to this airflow.
Tony, who was half a beat slow in reacting, was directly hit in the face by the laptop in front of him and was immediately carried uncontrollably by the airflow, falling towards the hole in the cabin.
Fortunately, Luca, who was prepared next to him, was quick-witted and grabbed Tony just as he was about to be flung out.
However, at this moment, Happy, who had come out of another cabin to check the situation after hearing the alarm, was also instantly sucked away by the airflow.
"Happy!"
Seeing his bodyguard about to be flung out of the plane, Tony immediately cried out in alarm, his eyes wide with fury.
But the next moment.
"Bang~"
Another loud explosion.
An inconspicuous universal capsule exploded into a cloud of White smoke at the cabin's broken opening.
Immediately after, a huge inflatable life raft appeared out of nowhere, instantly sucked in by the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cabin, firmly pressing against the broken cabin door.
And Happy, who had been flung over, landed squarely in the center of the life raft.
Seeing this, Tony's heart, which had been in his throat, finally managed to settle back down.
However, by this time, the cabin was already a mess.
Although everyone was temporarily safe from being sucked out of the cabin, the entire plane was still shaking violently.
Tony quickly scrambled to his feet and said to Luca in a hurried tone.
"This won't work, the plane won't last long before it disintegrates!"
No sooner had he spoken than a piercing 'creak' came from the broken hole that had just been plugged by the life raft.
Not only was the life raft starting to twist, but even the cabin itself began to crack and deform under the continuous pressure.
Happy, who had just managed to stand steady, was so frightened that he immediately scrambled away from the broken hole, clutching a nearby chair and not daring to move.
At this moment, Green Bull also rushed out of the cabin, but before he could speak.
Two loud roars came from outside the plane in quick succession.
Clearly, the two Haro Mechas that had just rushed out had intercepted the missiles fired by the enemy aircraft.
However, precisely because of these two extremely close-range explosion impacts, the entire plane once again began to shake violently and uncontrollably.
Immediately after.
"Crack~ Crack~"
At the earlier cabin door breach, the fuselage metal began to rapidly deform and twist.
Then, the life raft, which had barely plugged the hole in the cabin door, was instantly torn apart and sucked out.
Fortunately, everyone had held on tight by this time, and although there was another chaotic moment, no one was at risk of being pulled out of the plane again.
However, in this situation, the plane could disintegrate and crash at any second.
With things having come to this, Luca made a decision.
His eyes narrowed, and he turned to look at Stark.
"Tony, don't move!"
"Kid, what are you doing?!"
Before he could finish speaking, Tony saw Luca directly release his right hand, which was gripping the seat, allowing the airflow to carry him towards the broken hole.
In reality, at this point, due to the previous outflow of air and a slight decrease in the plane's altitude, the pressure difference between the inside and outside of the cabin was far less than at first, and even the people inside the cabin, because they were not wearing oxygen masks, were already subtly beginning to show symptoms of hypoxia.
But even so, with Luca's action of letting his body drift with the flow, he was instantly flung out of the cabin in Tony's horrified gaze.
"Luca!!!"
The next moment.
A light blue glow filled everyone's vision inside the cabin, and everything seemed to be frozen at this moment.
In the sky outside the plane's cabin.
Luca deliberately letting go and allowing the airflow to suck him out of the cabin was certainly not because he was tired of living, or wanted to escape alone or anything like that.
The moment his figure was sucked out of the cabin, Luca had already pulled out his [Dehydration Gun] from his embrace and directly shot a beam of energy that hit the plane, which was at risk of disintegrating at any moment.
As the [Dehydration Gun]'s blue energy enveloped the entire plane, including everyone inside, the entire private jet vanished in mid-air, transforming into a thumb-sized blue cube.
With such a large object as the plane instantly disappearing, the surrounding airflow immediately rushed inward due to the creation of a vacuum area.
Even Luca, who had just come out of it, was pulled by this airflow towards the original location of the plane.
However, this was exactly what he wanted.
Luca brought his arms together, forming a streamlined shape, and continued to dive towards the blue cube that the plane had become.
The surging airflow and strong winds in the high altitude made a flapping sound around Luca.
"Whew~ Thank goodness, I didn't lose everyone on this plane!"
Finally, after grabbing the slowly descending energy cube before the wind direction changed again, Luca let out a long sigh of relief, adjusted his posture, and pressed the 'Anti-gravity Mode' on his [Tuxedo].
"Om~"
A faint, almost imperceptible ripple flowed through his entire body, and then Luca stood steadily thousands of meters in the sky.
Hmm, anti-gravity devices are just that scientific!
Raising his palm to look at the blue energy cube in his hand, Luca gently flicked it with his finger, a look of relief appearing on his face.
"Tony~ Tony! I saved your life again~"
Just as Luca was speaking.
Two more large Fireballs exploded in the distance on the horizon.
That was Erha and Five Haro having completely destroyed the two fighter jets that came to ambush them.
Seeing this, Luca directly tapped the control device on his head and softly commanded.
"Erha, come pick me up."
As the two mechas came and held Luca, carrying him down to the ground, Luca and Tony were temporarily out of danger.
However, this HYDRA uprising naturally didn't target only the two of them.
Compared to 'only' two fighter jets being dispatched to launch missiles here.
The situation in New York was even more critical.
