He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 14 Entering the Base

……

"Transformation Technique!"

After quickly cleaning up the traces, Li Chuan formed a hand seal and with a "bang," he transformed back into the pot-bellied Hades.

"Sometimes these support ninjutsu are more useful than offensive ninjutsu."

Driving his red Hades sedan, he couldn't help but sigh to himself.

Although the Transformation Technique is just an E-rank ninjutsu that all beginners can use, it is exceptionally useful in the Marvel world where no one can identify chakra.

Without the transformation technique, he wouldn't have been able to so easily kidnap Hades to the outskirts for interrogation without leaving a trace.

It's important to understand that whether he did it himself or his subordinates, there are cameras everywhere in the city, so it's inevitable that traces will be left behind.

Once everything is over, if someone with ulterior motives investigates, they could very well trace these clues back to his group and to him.

The key point is that even with the chakra boost and some offensive ninjutsu, it would be virtually impossible for him to break into the Hydra base alone and rescue Dr. Smith.

Not to mention killing Baron Strucker and destroying the entire Hydra base.

At this time, Hydra had not yet obtained the Mind Stone, nor had it developed any high-tech energy protection measures through research on the Mind Stone and the Chitauri's ships.

But even ordinary spears and cannons are far more powerful than D-rank ninjutsu like fireballs he unleashes.

Therefore, a direct confrontation would be absolutely impossible. Only by infiltrating and leveraging his superior individual strength could he have a chance to complete the three missions and escape unscathed.

Without mastering the Transformation Technique, infiltrating a Hydra base protected by various surveillance devices would be an incredibly difficult task.

As things stand, his transformation technique isn't quite perfect yet, due to time constraints.

If you practice well, you can not only transform into other people's appearances, but also into other creatures, and even into inanimate objects such as a large rock, a vase, a weapon, and so on.

Of course, this doesn't mean that everything can be changed; there are corresponding limitations and precautions.

Firstly, no matter what form you take, if you can't hide your chakra well, other ninjas will be able to see through you at a glance, especially sensory ninjas.

This is much better in Marvel, because there are no ninjas there.

Secondly, you can't say that becoming something means you'll definitely become something else. Just like if you become a detonator, it's impossible for it to actually explode; it's just that the appearance is the same.

Third, if attacked, it becomes difficult to maintain chakra stability, making it easy to revert to its original form. Therefore, it cannot be said that turning into a sword means it can actually be used to fight with someone's real sword, or that turning into a shield means it can actually block bullets.

However, if one masters the Transformation Technique to its fullest extent, one can also develop many other, even more powerful, ninjutsu based on it.

Like Konan of Akatsuki, who transforms her body into countless pieces of paper to evade physical attacks with her "Shikigami Dance," and Jiraiya's "Frog Transformation Technique," which he used to interrogate enemies and forcibly turn them into frogs.

Many advanced ninjutsu techniques are actually developed from basic ninjutsu techniques.

This knowledge related to transformation techniques was all taught to him by Jiraiya at the Temple of Fire.

"Mr. Hades, what brings you here? Didn't you just deliver supplies last week?"

At the first line of defense outside the base, a group of soldiers stopped Li Chuan's car. The captain in charge was obviously very familiar with Hades' car and went up to knock on the car window.

Li Chuan took a deep breath; he didn't recognize the squad leader in front of him.

Although he extracted a lot of information from Hades, Hades, as a former Hydra member, knew most of the people in the base, so it was impossible for him to match them all to descriptions of their appearance.

Therefore, if there is too much communication along the way, it is easy to reveal a flaw before meeting Baron Strucker.

So he pushed open the car door forcefully, then fell to the ground, his face filled with anxiety and fear as he said to the squad leader:

"Quickly...take me to see the Baron! The Baron is in danger! There's a traitor in the base! He is...he is..."

Before he could finish speaking, he closed his eyes and fainted, using his martial arts ability to control his body to slow his heart rate and breathing as much as possible.

The squad leader was clearly also frightened by Li Chuan's performance.

"Mr. Haders! Mr. Haders!"

He bent down to check Li Chuan's breathing, then listened to his heartbeat, and hurriedly shouted an order to his men:

"Quickly, take Mr. Hades back to base for treatment."

Hades only said one sentence before he fainted, but if the information revealed in that sentence was true, it would be terrifying. He dared not delay and immediately reported the situation to his superiors.

Feeling himself being transported towards the base, Li Chuan, who was pretending to be unconscious, secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

According to the intelligence provided by Hades, there are six checkpoints outside the Hydra base.

Even if he disguised himself as Hades to see Baron Strucker, he would inevitably be questioned along the way because he was not entering at the normal time.

By doing this, he can legally bypass all checkpoints and reach his target as quickly as possible.

Who would be wary of an old Hydra agent who was unarmed, dying, and carrying vital intelligence?

The only thing was that his acting was a little over-the-top, after all, he wasn't a professional actor, but fortunately, he had physical coordination, so the other party didn't notice anything.

After speeding along in a patrol jeep, Li Chuan passed through five checkpoints and stopped directly at the base entrance, where he was carried inside on a stretcher by several base medical personnel in white coats.

Inside the base's medical room, Li Chuan was carried to a hospital bed. The scientists who had originally conducted human experiments on Hydra were now acting as temporary doctors, conducting a preliminary examination on Li Chuan.

"Dr. Lister, how is Haders?"

Shortly afterward, Baron Strucker, dressed in a leather jacket and wearing a monocle, arrived at the medical room with two of his men.

Dr. Lister, the person in charge of all experimental projects at the base and also the base's second-in-command, shook his head:

"It's strange. His body doesn't seem to be injured, but his heartbeat and breathing are very weak. He may have been attacked by some kind of special weapon or ability."

Next, I'm going to try using an electric shock device to see if I can help him regain a heartbeat!

"We must save him."

Baron Strucker gave the order with a serious expression.

Normally, Hades' death wouldn't have made him any more important than anyone else; there would have been plenty of people who could have taken his place.

But the situation is different now. We absolutely cannot let Hades die without understanding what he said before he fell into a coma.

Who attacked Hades? What danger did Hades mention? And what's the story behind the traitor in the base?
