MARVEL: THE ONE ABOVE ALL TIER LIST

Chapter 14: Investigations



[With the temporary silence of the Marvel List, the dark forces hiding in the shadows began to stir.]

The appearance of the list not only brought opportunities—it opened wide doors for manipulation and covert maneuvering.

Some shadowy organizations, especially those accustomed to operating behind the scenes, started constructing infrastructures centered around the list—such as using private chat rooms for secret meetings and shady schemes.

Inside Hydra's private group chat…

[Pierce]: "Have you heard of an organization called Kamar-Taj? According to our reports, it's likely a hidden group operating right here on Earth."

[Whitehall]: "Pierce, cut the nonsense. Even if we find them—so what? They're probably one of the top four organizations that'll be revealed tomorrow."

[Pierce]: "Think about it... If we can assassinate their leader, or take over the organization itself, then the top-tier rewards could be ours! Just imagine what the fifth-ranked group received—what about the fourth?!"

Baron Strucker said nothing. He watched Pierce growing increasingly delusional, believing he could control everything just because he secretly held influence over S.H.I.E.L.D.

Then, with a cunning tone, he added:"Does S.H.I.E.L.D have any intel on them? We could nudge them into acting for us—no need to expose ourselves."

Just then, Whitehall jumped in with a new angle:

"There's also a group called the Celestial Dome. Even more mysterious than Kamar-Taj. And that man—Isaac Leclerc—seems to know quite a bit. If we can capture him..."

The trio grew more excited with every theory, and soon, Hydra began crafting a plan to deal with these two unknown forces believed to be on Earth.

At S.H.I.E.L.D.'s conference room…

Nick Fury was receiving a report from Maria Hill.

Hill: "According to our sources, Kamar-Taj isn't an organization—it's a location. Supposedly hidden near the foothills of the Himalayas. But based on our investigations, there's nothing unusual there."

Fury: "What about the group called the Celestial Dome?"

Hill: "We've got no real data. They might be in another dimension, or a hidden place like Wakanda."

Fury sighed, rubbing his temples."This is giving me a headache…"

Then, suddenly:"And Hydra?"

Hill closed the file, her face grim."No leads. Worse yet, we suspect someone inside the agency might be covering for them. Otherwise, how could they vanish so completely?"

Fury fell silent, stunned by how tangled things had become. Not only were there external threats, but their internal funding had just been frozen. The Secretary-General had refused to release this year's budget after the Hydra scandal.

"I'll need to talk to Pierce…" he muttered darkly.

In the Multiverse Chatroom…

Things were heating up between Tony Stark, the Human Torch, and Thor.

[Human Torch]: "@Thor, are you seriously a god from Norse mythology? And why is Loki your brother, not your uncle?"

[Tony Stark]: "I told you all before… the guy's just an alien. What you call mythology was just space travelers showing up thousands of years ago. The ancients thought they were gods. If I went back in time, they'd probably worship me too—maybe as the God of Technology!"

[Thor]: "Tony Stark… Do you have a personal vendetta against me? You've been running your mouth since this chat started. You want me to descend from the heavens and crush you with Mjolnir?"

[Tony Stark]: "Oh, I'm shaking! Please, show me your divine internet wrath! Hit me through the Wi-Fi, oh mighty god!"

Thor: "Wait and see! If I don't end you today, I'm no son of Odin!"

In Asgard…

Thor shouted at his brother:"Loki! Don't stop me! I'm going to teach that mortal a lesson!"

Loki smirked inwardly, thoroughly enjoying the drama. He pretended to hold Thor back, then said mockingly:

"But... today's your coronation. What about the ceremony?"

Thor snorted:"Wait here. I'll smash him and be back before it starts!"

And he stormed off toward the Bifrost Bridge, determined to give Tony Stark a divine beating.

On the Bifrost Bridge – Asgard

The gatekeeper, Heimdall, stood silently as always, his cosmic eyes glowing with lightning, watching every corner of the universe. But he could not ignore the thunderous footsteps of Thor approaching him in anger.

"Heimdall, open the gate. Destination: Earth!"

Heimdall didn't answer immediately. He stared at Thor for a long moment, as if seeing beyond the words.

"Do you truly wish to go, Son of Odin… over an argument in a chatroom?"

Thor shouted, "It's not an argument! It's an insult! That insolent mortal has crossed every line of respect!"

Heimdall sighed in silence, then opened the gate.

"Be warned, Thor… not every battle of the gods is worth fighting."

But Thor had already stepped through, racing with the thunder of his fury toward Earth.
