"I've met monsters on other planets... but I never expected to meet an even more insane one when I returned to Earth!"
Blasted backward by the sheer force of the Asura Chakra Cannon, Carol hovered in the vacuum of space, eyes narrowing with growing curiosity toward Su Xiuyu.
"Are you even human anymore?"
"Maybe my body's not," Su Xiuyu answered calmly, his chakra cloak rippling like a flame. "But my soul? Still human. Someday, I might even ignite the divine fire... and ascend as a true Ninja God."
He didn't bother hiding his identity. An Ōtsutsuki didn't need to lie—not to others, and certainly not to himself. The bloodline had carried him this far, a blessing and a curse alike.
"You... want to rule the world?" Carol's brows lifted. That wasn't something she'd expected from him.
Su Xiuyu chuckled. "Rule the world? Why would I waste my time on that? What's so tempting about this ordinary world that I'd want to own it?"
He floated downward slightly, arms crossed as his aura pulsed around him. "I'm chasing the evolution of life itself—not power, not titles. Even if I did conquer a world, I'd leave the managing to someone else. I have no interest in babysitting mortals."
"So... we keep fighting, then?"
"Of course. I haven't even broken a sweat!"
With a grin, Carol surged forward, energy blazing from her fists. Their battle reignited with overwhelming intensity, each blow shaking the moon beneath them. The sheer scale of their power surpassed natural limits, splitting the lunar surface and sending quakes through its core.
Far beneath their battlefield, nestled within a hidden palace on the far side of the moon, the ground trembled violently.
"What's happening out there?" Medusa, Queen of the Inhumans, stood at the edge of her city's protective dome, eyes narrowed as tremors cracked the outer structures.
"Your Majesty," a royal guard reported, rushing into view, "two unidentified powerhouses are battling above the surface!"
The palace monitors flickered to life, revealing the epic clash of Su Xiuyu and Carol. Shock spread among the Inhumans.
For the uninitiated, the Inhumans were once ordinary humans—until, millions of years ago, the Kree visited Earth. Amidst their war with the Skrulls, the Kree began experimenting on human DNA, resulting in an entirely new evolutionary path.
Now, the Inhumans lived in exile on the moon, their city Attilan kept invisible and hidden behind an advanced energy shield. With Earth's current technology, humans couldn't survive long in lunar conditions—so contact had been rare, even nonexistent for centuries.
Until today.
Today, Su Xiuyu and Carol tore open that boundary with sheer power alone. Both were surviving in the vacuum of space without suits, purely through strength and control—something even the strongest Earth-bound metahumans could only dream of.
And now their brawl threatened Attilan itself.
Cracks spread across the moon's surface, inching dangerously close to the city's foundation.
"Black Bolt," Medusa turned to the silent king beside her, "we're in trouble. Their battle's breaching Attilan's outer limits. The city isn't built to take this kind of stress."
Black Bolt stared up through the transparent dome, silent as ever, but clearly alarmed. Even Attilan—pride of Inhuman technology—was beginning to falter.
As predicted, the inevitable happened. One of Carol's focused energy blasts barely missed Su Xiuyu and slammed into an invisible wall—the city's protective shield.
A heartbeat later, the entire barrier shattered like glass.
Attilan, once cloaked in secrecy, now stood exposed under the stars.
"...Carol, I think you broke something."
"Su Xiuyu, don't try to pin this on me!" she yelled, charging back in. "Now let's finish this!"
"I'm serious. You really broke something!" Su Xiuyu replied with a half-laugh.
Inside Attilan, sirens screamed as red lights flickered across the city.
"I'll go!" Black Bolt signed swiftly. He couldn't speak—the power of his voice alone could level a mountain—but his eyes were resolute. If these two beings weren't stopped, Attilan would be rubble.
He turned to his companion. "Tetanus, teleport me to the battlefield."
(Tetanus, of course, was no ordinary pet—a massive dog with teleportation abilities, larger than a lion and just as fierce.)
In a burst of spatial light, Black Bolt and Tetanus appeared near the duel. Su Xiuyu and Carol paused only briefly, staring at the man-dog duo.
"...Su Xiuyu, this isn't one of your sidekicks, is it?" Carol asked, raising an eyebrow.
Su Xiuyu looked equally confused. "...Nope. Never seen them before."
Black Bolt began gesturing frantically, trying to communicate through signs. Unfortunately, neither combatant was fluent in sign language.
"...Is he dancing?" Su Xiuyu asked, tilting his head.
Carol shrugged. "Beats me."
They ignored him and resumed fighting.
"Shinra Tensei!" Su Xiuyu roared, sending a powerful gravitational shockwave that swept Black Bolt aside like a paper doll.
"Weird Arm Rocket!" he added for flair, launching a barrage of micro-missiles at Carol. The attack was more playful than serious—Su Xiuyu was testing out old techniques, using Carol as a sparring partner.
To his growing annoyance, Black Bolt—now recovering—refused to be ignored. His pride wouldn't allow it. He was a king. A ruler. And yet these two treated him like a background character.
He opened his mouth.
A single breath escaped—a supersonic wave of destruction. The very surface of the moon peeled away, soil and rock pulverized in an instant as the attack carved toward Su Xiuyu like a silent scythe of death.
But space lacked air.
Black Bolt's sound-based power was more than mere acoustics—it was a force projection—but even then, the attack did nothing to Su Xiuyu's chakra-enhanced body.
"Shinra Tensei!" Su Xiuyu barked again, and the attack was nullified with ease.
This man who could repel attacks like divine judgment had zero patience left for whatever Black Bolt was trying to do.
And he didn't like strangers making gestures at him in the middle of a fight.
"Universal Pull!" Su Xiuyu extended a hand, gravitational forces distorting space as he attempted to drag Black Bolt straight into his grasp.
But at the last second, Tetanus teleported him away, vanishing in a shimmer of light.
Black Bolt appeared far behind enemy lines, drenched in sweat.
That had been close—too close. Su Xiuyu's gravitational pull felt like a planet collapsing inward. If not for Tetanus, he'd be dead.
He'd never faced power like this before.
Where did these two monsters come from?
--------------------
"Susanoo!"
"Earth Control Technique!"
Su Xiuyu activated his complete Susanoo, its golden form towering above like a divine warrior. Without pause, he layered it with moonstone armor using his Earth Control Technique. The fusion of chakra and lunar rock exuded an overwhelming aura—unstoppable, unshakable.
"You're not holding back at all, are you?" Carol crossed her arms, unimpressed. "Seriously, you're coming at me with a thousand-meter-tall golden giant wielding a big, thick, hard energy blade?"
"Carol..." Su Xiuyu raised an eyebrow, amusement flickering in his eyes. "Are you... driving right now?"
She smirked but didn't deny it.
"Don't hold back, Su Xiuyu. I said I wanted a fight—so give me a fight. No going easy on me, or I'll keep bothering you all day."
"I get it." He sighed, then gripped the hilt of the massive chakra greatsword.
With a single swing, the blade ripped through the surface of the moon—cracking it open like fragile porcelain.
Carol, sensing danger at the last second, flashed away, barely avoiding the destructive arc. Dust and debris exploded into space.
"…Trouble," Su Xiuyu muttered. He had only used sixty percent of his strength, yet the damage was catastrophic. Fissures snaked across the moon's crust, and the entire satellite began to tremble.
A thunderous voice echoed from a distant cliffside.
"WHAT DID YOU DO!?" Black Bolt roared.
The shockwaves from his shout tore through the vacuum, and Su Xiuyu actually heard him—proof of the immense power behind the scream.
Back on Earth, panic erupted.
Tony Stark bolted upright from his chair. "Jarvis?"
"Yes, sir," the AI replied. "Satellite readings confirm lunar instability. Based on our projections, the moon will disintegrate within three minutes."
"Tell me this wasn't just from one hit."
"It could also be the cumulative effect of sustained high-level combat," Jarvis offered, diplomatic.
"Great," Tony muttered, rubbing his temples. "Now even Nick Fury's gonna have a stroke."
"We're talking darker nights, disrupted tides, possible tsunamis… And if fragments hit the atmosphere? Meteor showers. Worst-case scenario—global catastrophe."
Tony exhaled. "Su Xiuyu better fix this."
---
Meanwhile, on the moon, Su Xiuyu stared at the slowly crumbling terrain around him.
"…Maybe I overdid it."
"Maybe!?" Carol shouted, scanning the trembling ground beneath her boots. "You cracked the moon!"
"Well, you did push me to use more power."
"I dared you to fight me, not wreck a celestial body!"
More cracks spread. Attilan—the Inhumans' hidden city—sounded the emergency sirens. Their protective shield was faltering. Even their advanced technology couldn't evacuate everyone in time.
"We don't have long," Carol muttered, serious now. "Even if I call the Kree fleet, they won't make it in time. Got any ideas?"
Su Xiuyu nodded. "I have one. Back away."
Carol gave him space, watching with wary respect.
He descended rapidly into the moon's core, using the Earth Control Technique to pierce through the layers of rock. But with every movement, the moon's structural collapse accelerated.
Three minutes just turned into two.
Finally, Su Xiuyu stopped and gathered his chakra. He formed a complex array of hand seals.
"Earth-Shattering Star."
A sealing jutsu of extraordinary magnitude activated. The moon's shattered layers began pulling inward, condensing—reshaping into a smoother, stronger sphere.
It was his first time pushing this technique to such a scale, and it worked. Stabilization slowly returned.
But a new problem emerged.
The artificial gravity created by the jutsu began attracting nearby asteroids and debris. The moon's "repaired" form risked becoming a magnet for more destruction.
"Oops… too strong," Su Xiuyu muttered. Fortunately, the area around the moon was relatively clear. The debris would miss—for now.
Attilan's alarms ceased. The crisis was over.
Lives had been lost, but the worst was averted.
Su Xiuyu reappeared near Carol, dusting off his robes.
"Well, that was intense," he said.
Carol grinned. "Done venting?"
"Nope."
She grabbed his collar, pulled him in—and kissed him.
His eyes widened for a moment, but he didn't resist. Warm lips pressed against his. As the two parted slightly, Su Xiuyu blinked—and vanished into space.
Far below, on Earth, Nick and Tony stared at the screen.
"Did they just—" Tony started.
"Satellite lost resolution," Jarvis reported.
Tony frowned. "Figures."
---
In a star-speckled virtual space…
Su Xiuyu and Carol hovered, wrapped in each other's arms.
"Where are we?" she whispered.
"My own pocket dimension. Created with space magic. No one can enter without my will."
Carol's grin returned. "So… no one will disturb us?"
He hesitated. "Carol… you know I already have two wives."
"Do you mind having one more?"
"...You wouldn't care even if I did."
"Nope!" she laughed.
Their bodies came together again, more intimately this time. The distance between them vanished—light years, kilometers, centimeters… zero.
Negative distance.
Emptiness served as their bed; the stars, their only audience.
Another battle—no less intense than their first—played out in silence.
Later, the two floated side by side in the void, still naked, still holding one another.
"I…" Carol began.
"I…" Su Xiuyu echoed.
"You go first," he offered gently.
Carol bit her lip. "Don't feel burdened. I did this because I wanted to. No regrets."
He sighed with a smile. "How can a woman say that so casually after something like this?"
She laughed, cheeks flushed. "Hey, I risked it all, alright? Rejection would've been so embarrassing. I figured, if I'm gonna shoot my shot… I better go all in."
A beat.
"…It was my first time in outer space too. Might as well make it memorable."
Su Xiuyu stared at her for a moment, then chuckled.
Carol Danvers—bold, unfiltered, fearless.
He couldn't hate her even if he tried.
"So…" she leaned into him again, voice softer now. "What are you going to do next?"
