Captain America's situation was settled for now.
"Stark, what about you?"
Nick Fury turned his gaze to Tony Stark.
"We'll talk about other things later, but for now, share all the intelligence you have on the Ten Rings with me." Tony Stark said, as expected.
For Tony Stark, the Ten Rings were the most pressing threat, and everything else took a backseat.
"No problem."
Nick Fury nodded, agreeing without hesitation. He was happy to see Tony Stark take on the Ten Rings as well.
The Ten Rings hadn't previously warranted Nick Fury's full attention, but things were different now. In the future, the Ten Rings had individuals capable of physically battling Iron Man armor.
It was even possible such enhanced individuals already existed.
Nick Fury naturally couldn't remain indifferent.
"Thor, you can stay at S.H.I.E.L.D. for the time being. We at S.H.I.E.L.D. will provide for all your needs."
Nick Fury then addressed Thor.
Thor had nowhere else to go, so he didn't hesitate and nodded in agreement.
Moreover, the most important thing for Thor right now was to pick up his hammer as soon as possible and restore his divine power.
Since Thor couldn't pick up the hammer currently, it could only be kept at S.H.I.E.L.D. for the time being.
As for Black Widow and Coulson, Nick Fury didn't need to ask them. They were his most loyal subordinates; he could simply give them orders.
The only people he needed to communicate and collaborate with were Tony Stark, Thor, and Captain America – that was all.
After a simple agreement on the initial plan, everyone went their separate ways.
"Hill, compile all the information regarding the Ten Rings, as well as all the mission briefings related to our assignments, and send them to my office."
Nick Fury immediately used the internal phone to give Agent Hill an order.
Scratch, scratch, scratch!
The sound of a pen scratching across paper echoed continuously. Black Widow was drawing the portraits. Before long, she stopped, having finished several.
Among them were the man who had been in the meeting with Vision and the others, standing beside Scarlet Witch, Wanda, as well as the enhanced operative from the Ten Rings who had kidnapped the president. They were all there.
It was worth mentioning that Black Widow had copied these people using her Sharingan, guaranteeing 100% accuracy.
They could be used as photographs directly.
"Sir, it's done."
Black Widow placed the portraits in front of Nick Fury, and everyone present gathered around to examine them.
Tony Stark wasted no time, pulled out his phone, and snapped a few photos.
"Stark, if you find anything about these two, I want you to share the information with me immediately."
Nick Fury didn't object and said to Tony Stark seriously.
For Tony Stark, who had Jarvis, finding people based on portraits was indeed a huge advantage over S.H.I.E.L.D..
"Don't worry, Nick Fury, we are now in a friendly cooperative relationship." Tony Stark didn't refuse. "Sir, here's the information you requested."
A moment later, Agent Hill walked in and handed Nick Fury a USB drive. Without a doubt, it contained the information Tony Stark had requested about the Ten Rings.
Hill, seeing so many people in the office, was secretly curious. Was the Director planning some important operation?
Coulson and Black Widow were both present, and even Captain America was there.
But Hill, as a professional agent, was well-trained. No matter how curious she was, she didn't ask any unnecessary questions.
After handing the USB drive to Nick Fury, she left.
"Nick Fury, everyone, I'll take my leave!"
Tony Stark took the USB drive, greeted everyone present, and swaggered out.
At this moment, Black Widow began coordinating with Captain America, while Thor, like an inquisitive child, listened intently to their conversation.
However, this guy wasn't an outsider, and wasn't even from Earth. Black Widow and the others didn't avoid Thor, acting as if he wasn't even there, and continued their discussion as if nothing was happening.
"Captain, I can provide you with a Quinjet and a tactical team, which you will command."
Nick Fury saw that they had shared enough information and it was time to formulate a plan. He took the initiative to propose, "In addition, Romanoff will go with you."
Since there was no way to stop Captain America's "stubbornness", Nick Fury quickly made a decision to fully support Captain America's actions.
To completely eradicate that Hydra base!
"Nick Fury, this is my business, you don't need to do this." Captain America said sternly to Nick Fury.
"No, Captain, this is not just your business." Nick Fury said heavily, "Hydra is also an enemy of S.H.I.E.L.D., isn't it?"
Captain America helped Nick Fury secretly investigate Hydra, and Nick Fury helped Captain America find Bucky. The two had indeed reached such an agreement before.
Now that Bucky had been found, Nick Fury didn't necessarily need to be involved in the rescue.
However, Fury was right; taking down Hydra was, after all, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s responsibility. Captain America didn't say anything further.
After a moment's thought, he turned to Thor. "I'd like to borrow your hammer."
According to Black Widow's intel, the base's defenses were extremely tight. Even with S.H.I.E.L.D.'s support, it would be a tough fight.
To reduce casualties and increase the chances of success, Captain America planned to borrow Thor's hammer.
"Going to rescue your own partner – that's what a valiant warrior should do!" Thor didn't hesitate and immediately agreed. "Take the hammer and use it. If you need me, I can go with you!"
"Thank you, Thor, but this is my own business," Captain America shook his head, declining Thor's offer.
Thor knew that he had lost his divine power and couldn't help much even if he went, so he didn't press the matter.
"Good luck, man!" Thor clapped Captain America on the shoulder, speaking heavily to him.
Captain America nodded, and then continued to discuss the details of the operation with Black Widow.
About half an hour later, everything was finalized. Captain America, holding Mjolnir, and Black Widow left Nick Fury's office together.
