Ever since he was imprisoned by S.H.I.E.L.D.,
Nick Fury's emotions had grown more and more volatile.
He had filed appeal after appeal—
Yet every one of them vanished like stones sinking into the sea, without a single reply.
Deep down, he knew the truth.
Someone did not want him released.
Was it Alexander Pierce?
Or was it Renjie?
Being toyed with like a pawn would make anyone furious—
Even if he was once the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D..
But soon…
He would leave this place.
With the backing of that so-called "powerful outside ally,"
he would return as a king.
While Fury was still drowning in this beautiful fantasy—
An unexpected visitor appeared before him.
This man was the shadow behind everything that had ruined him.
The one he hated most.
Renjie.
Renjie gazed at the imprisoned Nick Fury, a puzzled expression on his face.
If not for the oppressive, pitch-dark atmosphere surrounding them—
He might have thought he was strolling through a zoo.
"Long time no see, Mr. Fury."
Renjie greeted him, struggling to suppress a smile.
Fury's single eye widened as he stared at Renjie,
his expression as if he had seen a ghost.
The emblem on Renjie's chest—
Was almost identical to the symbol burned into his memory.
That was a mark only Captain Marvel possessed.
The colors were different,
but the style was nearly the same—
Like a pair of matching outfits worn by two superheroes in love.
"Damn it… where did you get that suit?"
Fury demanded in shock.
And then
He realized something.
Renjie lifted his hand, gently touching the starlight emblem on his chest.
A complex smile appeared on his face.
"Come to think of it… I should be thanking you."
"No… I should say, we should."
His smile overflowed with the glow of love.
He and Carol had already confirmed their relationship.
This was only the beginning of their passionate romance.
"You… what did you just say…?"
Fury froze.
He understood.
The Captain Marvel he had pinned all his hopes on—
Was now together with the man he despised the most.
It was absurd.
Completely unbelievable.
Nick Fury felt as if his mind had gone blank,
his spirit drifting into a daze.
Thud.
He collapsed onto the floor.
Dark red blood slid from his nostrils.
Years of pent-up rage had driven his blood pressure higher and higher.
This man might truly be angered to death.
"Thank you, Fury."
"Carol is a wonderful woman. I will cherish her."
Renjie spoke with genuine gratitude.
Even the guards could feel the sincerity in his tone.
But to Fury—
These words were a poisoned blade driven straight through his heart.
Fury clutched his left chest, his face twisted in agony.
Angina.
His lips turned pale, his limbs went weak,
cold sweat pouring from his forehead.
Renjie's cruelty far exceeded anything he had imagined.
"Fury's not going to make it—go get a doctor!"
"I know first aid! Let me in!"
Renjie ordered the guards to open the cell.
Terrified, they obeyed at once.
Renjie stepped inside, wearing a concerned expression,
and cradled Fury in his arms.
Then
He unfolded a blue energy barrier,
cutting off all external perception.
Leaning close to Fury's ear,
Renjie whispered in a low, chilling voice:
"Let me tell you one more piece of good news…"
"I've already fused with the Tesseract."
"I now possess power far beyond even Carol…"
"Spend your old age here in peace."
"The next time we meet, I'll bring my son to see you."
"Maybe he'll be Carol's… or maybe mine with someone else."
"For example—your most trusted subordinate."
A trace of sick, twisted delight glimmered in Renjie's smile.
Compared to the fleeting pleasure of killing an enemy—
Endless torment brought him far greater satisfaction.
"Renjie… you…"
"You…"
Fury was so enraged he could no longer form words.
The last hope he had clung to—
Had become Renjie's woman.
He was utterly defeated.
Completely played in the palm of this man's hand.
A mouthful of foul, dark blood burst from his lips.
Nick Fury collapsed to the floor, slipping into deep unconsciousness.
Just before he blacked out—
A flash of regret crossed his eyes.
Everything that had happened was of his own making.
He could have chosen a gentler path.
He could have tried to guide Renjie…
Even mold him into a righteous superhero.
But it was his relentless pressure—
That unleashed Renjie's true nature.
Nick Fury had fallen.
Renjie watched as Fury was taken away.
The smile on his lips never faded.
Within S.H.I.E.L.D.'s medical team—
He already had an inside man.
The unconscious Fury would be injected with [Medical Nanobots].
From this moment on—
The rest of Director Fury's life
would be under Renjie's control.
One day, he would tame this "black chimpanzee"
and make him serve.
After all—
Turning a former enemy into a loyal servant…
Was far more satisfying than simply destroying them.
