"Don't worry, no one here is controlled by the nanobots, and the nanobots don't seem to be able to control anyone here either," Vision said gently.

“We should be careful,” Hawkeye said to Tony. “You know how difficult it is to defend against nanobots.”

“I think you should also know that I’m not a beginner in the field of nanotechnology. My equipment is made up of nanobots. Do you think those nanobots can get close to me?” Tony said with great arrogance.

However, he also possesses an inflated sense of self-confidence. In the field of nanotechnology, through Athena's instruction and his own absorption and refinement, he can be said to be no less than, and even surpass, any person on this earth.

Of course, the most important thing is that he's just a little unhappy with the Avengers right now. In the end, he should be the real Avengers member, but because of the departure of most of them and their reunion in Wakanda, Tony's Avengers has become an empty shell. The people in Wakanda are the real Avengers.

In his view, although he was indeed a bit too hasty in the Avengers' civil war, which led to the entire Avengers' civil war under the military's guidance, it was actually Captain America who ultimately caused the real rift. He wanted to protect his old friends and then ignored these new friends and comrades.

"Alright, stop arguing. Tony, don't forget our mission." Finally, Mr. Strange couldn't stand it anymore and said, "It's just an inspection."

“But that’s an insult to me. Now the whole world knows that because of my technology, the United States is the only place in the world where there are absolutely no nanobots,” Tony said calmly.

"Then examine me. I'm always traveling between the US, the UK, and Hong Kong. Maybe I'm infected with nanobots," Doctor Strange shrugged.

In the end, Tony didn't say anything. Hawkeye also knew that Vision couldn't be controlled by nanobots. After all, Vision was similar to Athena, and nanobots getting close to him might actually be controlled by Vision. So after checking on Doctor Strange, Hawkeye went with them to Zatanna, explained a little, and then left together.

The final meeting venue was the council chamber in the palace of the Kingdom of Wakanda, where representatives from several superpowers, King T'Challa of Wakanda, and Logan, representing the mutants, sat together.

T'Challa briefly shared some information about the nanobots and advised these countries to avoid using weapons of mass destruction on the battlefield, as some people were being controlled and some countries were forced into war.

Of course, such seemingly naive remarks drew considerable dissatisfaction from representatives of some countries. After all, they hadn't done anything wrong, yet the enemy had declared war on them. They felt they had to fight the enemy until they were subdued. If it weren't for their fear of nanobots, who would have attended this kind of meeting?

"What exactly are you trying to say?" the Chinese representative said. "This war wasn't started by us, but now that it has begun, we won't stop fighting unless we win!"

“I know that now that the war has begun, it would be wishful thinking to ask you to stop fighting. So what I want is not for you to stop fighting, but for you not to use weapons of mass destruction,” T’Challa said calmly. “As for the enemy, we have the help of the Institute of Mutants and our Avengers superheroes. We will take action to destroy all of the enemy’s weapons of mass destruction.”

"There's one more thing I want to remind everyone here," Constantine said calmly, who was also present at the meeting. "The nanobots that triggered this war are not products of Earth at all."

The Russian representative frowned upon hearing this and asked, "Are you saying it's technology from outer space?"

“That’s right, and it was something Red Skull himself brought from another planet, so you can’t just look at the present situation. You need to think about what I just said and what it really means.” Constantine nodded and said.

“They want us to fight amongst ourselves, and then invade when Earth’s overall strength has declined,” Wakanda added.

“Earth’s overall strength has declined.” Tony said calmly, sitting in his seat. “Just when various countries suddenly acquired alien technology and began fighting against superhumans around the world, we had already fallen into a trap. Clearly, Red Skull’s return is the second act.”

"Alright, regarding the issue of weapons of mass destruction, we will analyze the situation you described carefully when we get back." The Chinese representative nodded slightly and said, "Now, tell us your plan?"

“Yes, we can’t truly stop the war unless we resolve the issue of the nanobots,” the Russian representative added. “I don’t want to think the war is over just as I’m about to be attacked again.”

"Our scientists here are already researching nanobots and have made great breakthroughs. Soon we will be able to identify those who are being controlled via satellite," T'Challa said with a smile. "Moreover, we have received help from Superman. He has Miss Athena dealing with Dr. Zola, so we won't be blind like we are now."

Chapter 445 Countdown to the Final Battle

The week following the World Conference was a very busy time for the Avengers. They rushed between three battlefields, constantly destroying the enemy's lethal weapons. Of course, they also encountered resistance from various superpowered individuals. Moreover, because they also had to prevent themselves from being controlled by nanobots, they had to sneak in and shoot each time!

Today, two things happened that greatly excited T'Challa and his team. First, thanks to the joint research of Wakanda's chief scientist and Tony Stark, they had finally completed the large-scale nanobot reconnaissance system and its hardware. Once this hardware was installed on the satellite, all the nanobots would be exposed.

The other is that The Flash, Barry Allen, and his support team came to this world from the infinite universe. Because of the existence of the interdimensional communicator, The Flash took everyone directly to Constantine's residence in Wakanda.

When they arrived, Constantine had just gone back to rest. Upon seeing the familiar wormhole, Constantine immediately realized that the Flash had arrived. Sure enough, several strangers who looked somewhat familiar walked out of the wormhole.

“Hey, Barry, you’re finally here.” Constantine sighed and said, “You have no idea how chaotic things are here.”

"Looks like we made it in time." The Flash smiled and said, "I've brought you teams from various worlds."

“Everyone, thank you for coming here to help. But I’m a little embarrassed to say that we can’t go ahead with the introductions. Let’s go over and talk to the others first,” Constantine said.

The group that came with the Flash had no objections, after all, they were there to help, and they didn't want to be introduced twice, so they followed Constantine to the council chamber of the Wakanda palace.

"Hey, Constantine, you're here! We were just about to call you." T'Challa said, then looked at the people behind Constantine and asked with some confusion, "Who are they?"

"Huh? Barry Allen?" Tony asked after seeing the Flash. "You've come to this world too?"

"Tony, are you alright? Where are Adam and Athena? And where's Little Ganata?" The Flash greeted Tony, looked around and, noticing Adam wasn't there, asked with some confusion.

Although he had heard from Batman that Superman seemed to have some conflict with the local government, Barry Allen decided that Adam's personality wouldn't allow him to stand idly by, but to his surprise, he didn't actually see those people this time.

"He's building a spaceship, preparing to leave Earth." Tony didn't hide anything and said directly, "He was hit hard when he came back this time, and his fiancée was taken away by her family. He's going to pick her up."

"Spaceship? Does this planet have aliens too?" Supergirl asked curiously after hearing about spaceships. "Oh, let me introduce myself. I'm Karadanfoss, or you can call me Supergirl."

"Your uniform is the same as Superman's," Falcon said with some surprise after seeing the Supergirl behind Barry. "So, she's a female version of Superman from another world?"

"Huh? There are Supermen in this world too?" Supergirl didn't care about Falcon's words at all. She was quite interested in the Supermen of this world and asked with a smile.

At this moment, Barry Allen said calmly, "He is Superman's cousin in another world, not a female version of Superman. Okay, let me introduce the people behind me. They are all from different worlds."

Then, Barry Allen introduced the superheroes he brought this time, including Supergirl, Jay Garrick, Kid Flash, Jessie Quick, Green Arrow, Stormfire, Vixen, Iron Commander, and Atom. This was the superhero team that The Flash had gathered from another world.

"It's a pleasure to meet you all, and thank you for coming to help our world." Tony smiled most sincerely at these selfless people who wanted to help him.

"So, what's the situation now?" Oliver Queen, the Green Arrow, asked, frowning.

Because Barry Allen was absent, and the captain of the Legends of Tomorrow team also stayed in the original world for some reason, the new team that came to help in this world seemed to be under the control of Oliver Quinn. Of course, this was also because, apart from Jay Garrick and Jessie Quick, everyone was very familiar with each other and knew that Oliver Quinn had leadership skills.

"There was an evil entity, the purest form of evil from the Nazi Germany during World War II, Red Skull, who suddenly appeared on Earth for some unknown reason. He then used nanobots to control some people and instigate World War III," T'Challa briefly explained.

"Nanobugs? Has it been confirmed as alien technology?" Green Arrow glanced at Supergirl and asked.

“That’s right, it is indeed alien technology, but we have now developed a device to deal with nanobots. The problem now is to install them on the satellite.” Tony looked around at the people and said, “Fortunately, you two who can fly have come. With the help of me, Roddy, and Friday, we should be able to install these devices on the satellite soon.”

Atom Rep Palmer raised his hand like a schoolchild and said, "Well, actually I can also move around in outer space, and I'm very fast too."

“Speaking of which, your abilities are quite similar to Ant-Man’s, except Ant-Man can’t fly,” Falcon said with a smile, looking at Repal.

"I can't fly because this suit doesn't have the ability to fly, but I can control ants or bees to fly," Ant-Man said innocently.

Oliver Quinn asked Tony, "So, the problem now is transportation?"

"Well, with the help of the three of you, it should be faster," Tony said with a smile.

Actually, he was also very interested in Repalmer, after all, the Atom suit that Repalmer was wearing was designed and made by Repalmer himself, which was very similar to him, well, except that their personalities were completely different.

"Since it's going to be installed on satellites, have you determined the exact locations of these satellites? After all, installation shouldn't be a problem, but actually operating it should be quite complicated," Dr. Stein, another Fusionist of Firestorm, asked Tony.

"You can rest assured about that. Any satellite will do. With Athena's help, we can completely control those satellites," Tony said confidently.

"Who is this Athena you're talking about?" As a scientist and scholar, Dr. Stein was always full of curiosity about new things.

"I'll introduce her to you when she arrives, Doctor," Tony said with a smile. "Although she's not the easiest to get along with, she has a very kind heart."

Just then, a beam of light suddenly flashed from the computer next to them, and Athena had arrived and just happened to hear Tony's words.

"Hey, do you really enjoy talking behind people's backs, Tony?" Athena said calmly.

People from another world watched Athena's sudden appearance with great vigilance, but the Flash greeted her happily.

“Hey, Athena, you’re here too? I knew Adam wasn’t that kind of person,” Barry Allen said with a smile.

“Barry, I didn’t expect you guys to be called here this time. And are these the superheroes who came to help this world?” Athena smiled and said, “Nice to meet you all. I am Athena.”

Oliver Quinn and the others greeted Athena, though they were also quite curious about her identity. After all, Athena had just appeared out of the computer, and if they hadn't heard her name before, they would have thought she was Sadako, even though they didn't know who Sadako was.

“Now that Athena is here, we can begin our plan.” Tony clapped his hands to draw everyone’s attention to him and said confidently, “We have me, Rhodes, and ten Iron Man suits specially modified for this operation to install the satellite device. Friday can control them. Green Arrow and his team also have three people who can fly into outer space. As for the mutants, the only one I know of who can survive in outer space is Phoenix.”

Athena replied, "Sixteen people? I think that's more than enough. You guys hurry up and make those devices, and then use Dr. Pym's shrinking technology so that each person can carry many. Plus, if we can use the teleportation room in the watchtower to teleport to outer space, we should be able to finish it very quickly."

Chapter 446 Countdown to the Final Battle Part 2

After formulating the battle plan, everyone started chatting casually. After all, it would take some time to complete the production, and Green Arrow and the others also needed to understand everyone here and their powers, otherwise they would not be able to coordinate well in the subsequent battle.

Because the Supergirls, Green Arrow's team, the Flash's team, and the Legends of Tomorrow's team had all teamed up to fight an alien called the Dominator, Green Arrow was very familiar with everyone's strength and abilities. So when he saw that the others were all acting like they would make the plans and he would just do the work, he shrugged and went over to talk to T'Challa. After all, apart from Tony, everyone else here seemed to be following his orders.

Tony was discussing the scientific basis and some settings of the nanobot detection device with Atom Rep Palmer and Professor Stain. Then Dr. Stain offered to help build the device. It has to be said that after gaining the identity and superhero abilities of Firestorm, Dr. Stain's brain has also evolved, his learning ability has been enhanced, and as a physicist, he can easily understand how to build the detector after listening to it just once.

"I have a question." Supergirl noticed that these people were very happy to hear about the detectors, seemingly without thinking about what would happen next, and asked, "The detectors only allow us to identify people controlled by nanobots, so how are we supposed to deal with these people?"

“Then we’ll need the help of these three speedsters.” Constantine looked at Wally and the others and said, “These nanobots are all controlled by Red Skull, and we’ve already tried, but we have no idea how he controls them. We can’t isolate them at all. In order to prevent Red Skull from killing those who are being controlled in a desperate situation, we can only have the speedsters remove the nanobots from those people’s bodies at extremely high speed and in a very short time. This is the only way.”

"Is this the only method we can use?" the Supergirl asked curiously. "Aren't nanobots also electromechanical? Why not use other methods?"

"The main reason is that these nanobots are a bit strange. They self-destruct immediately as soon as their performance stops," Constantine said calmly. "The self-destruction of nanobots is not a big deal, but if a Nie nanobot is inside someone's brain, it will damage that person's brain once it self-destructs. In severe cases, it will lead to death, and in mild cases, it will turn them into idiots."

"Oh, I see." Supergirl said with a sudden realization, "If only we could pause time in that area, we wouldn't have to worry about the nanobots self-destructing."

“That’s why we need speedsters. When they’re moving at top speed, the world seems to stand still to them,” Constantine said. “But it requires a very high level of skill; there can’t be the slightest mistake.”

Because they were discussing the Speedster, Wally and the others were listening nearby and thus overheard Constantine's words. Actually, if it were Jay Garrick, it wouldn't be a problem, since he's a veteran Flash. But as for Wally and Jessie Quick, that's another story.

“Looks like we need to get in touch,” Wally said, looking at Jessie Express.

“I can’t walk through walls yet,” Jessie Quick frowned and said, “What about you?”

“Barry did teach me some techniques, and I succeeded a few times. Maybe we can have Jay train us,” Wally said, looking at Jay Garrick.

“Sure, I will train you on how to use your powers.” Jay Garrick said with a smile, “It’s good that you discussed this issue, otherwise it would be terrible if we found out they weren’t ready when the battle actually started.”

Constantine was taken aback, and said somewhat speechlessly, "I thought you had all learned how to use your powers."

“Sorry, we’ve only had this power for less than a year, especially me, it’s only been a few months.” Wally shrugged and said, “But don’t worry, we learn it quickly.”

“I can guarantee that,” Jay Garrick said with a smile.

“So what kind of help do you need?” Constantine asked.

“A track big enough will do, and I’ll train them myself,” Jay Garrick said.

“There shouldn’t be any problem with this. T’Challa is the king of this country.” Constantine pointed to T’Challa, who was talking to Oliver Quinn, and said calmly.

Everything was proceeding rapidly. The superheroes from the two worlds began to get to know each other and even had a friendly sparring session that night. After all, they couldn't go to war together without knowing each other's strengths.

A week passed just like that. The Flash had long since returned, as he had other things to do in another universe and couldn't stay here any longer. Wally, Jessie Quick, and Quicksilver, who had just been introduced to the Speed ​​Force—yes, that guy was officially recognized by the Speed ​​Force as a speedster—were getting faster and faster under the training of the old Flash, Jai Garrick. They were also learning more and more skills, such as vibrating through walls, creating shadow clones, lightning attacks, creating storms, and so on. Of course, due to the needs of the war later on, Jai Garrick forced them to master vibrating through walls, to the point that they could pull out whatever they wanted by passing through a person's body. Well, luckily they all said they weren't bad guys, otherwise, it seems like no one would notice if they took kidneys or livers out of other people's bodies to sell.

Okay, enough chit-chat. After a week of getting to know each other, the superheroes from different worlds reached an agreement on a common goal and became good friends. Meanwhile, the nanobot detector was finally completed and carried by the main personnel of this mission through Dr. Pym's shrinking technology, ready to set off.

“Alright, now that everything is ready, let’s set off. I’ll interfere with the satellite surveillance in a bit, so you can carry out this mission without anyone noticing,” Athena said, looking at the eight people beside her.

"Okay, let's go then." Tony had already put on his armor, slammed his visor shut, and said calmly.

“Yes, we are ready,” Jefferson and Dr. Stein, who had transformed into a firestorm, added.

The others nodded in agreement. Of course, the Iron Man suit behind Tony was controlled by Friday, so it stood there quietly, after all, it was just an empty shell.

“Alright, let’s go!” Athena said, then suddenly remembered something and said to T’Challa and the others, “You guys go ahead and harass Hydra as planned. I’ve already sent you the address and everything.”

Subsequently, Iron Man, Supergirl, Phoenix, Iron Patriot, 10 Iron Man suits, Firestorm, Atom, Vision, and Athena, who were carrying out this mission, were enveloped in a beam of light and disappeared.

The next moment, these people appeared in the teleportation room of the watchtower. Because they had a mission to do, they did not enter the watchtower, but left the watchtower through a hatch in the teleportation room and came into space.
