Chapter 107: Chapter 107: The Hammer Falling from the Sky
"Dad, is that... a shooting star?"
"Yeah, that's a shooting star, son."
A meteor streaked through the sky, descending at incredible speed—but strangely, it landed without a single tremor.
The morning in the small Mexican town was bright and lively. People gathered curiously around the mysterious object that had fallen—an oddly shaped hammer embedded in the earth. Everyone tried to lift it, but no one succeeded. Even the strongest men couldn't budge it. One group even tied it to a pickup truck, but after the vehicle flipped over, the hammer still hadn't moved an inch.
At first, the whole thing felt like a bizarre urban legend. But the exact moment the hammer fell had been captured on SHIELD's surveillance satellites.
"Coles, take your team to Mexico immediately. A hammer just fell from the sky—we need boots on the ground, now."
In a cozy family-run motel in the town, Jane and Louis were deep in debate.
"Jane, are you sure it's a good idea to bring back some random guy?"
"Louis, do you even hear yourself? We were the ones who hit him last night. Are we just supposed to leave him there to die?"
"But he ran out onto the road out of nowhere..." Louis looked completely exasperated. "Seriously, it wasn't my fault!"
Meanwhile, the mysterious man they'd rescued was finally waking from a dream—though all he could remember was that it had been a nightmare.
Thor slowly got to his feet. Bits and pieces of last night came back to him. He remembered searching for Mjolnir... and ending up somewhere sterile and white. Right—the hospital. Jane and Louis had brought him there after the crash, and the doctors had given him a sedative, mistaking him for someone with mental illness.
But Thor, being Thor, didn't dwell on it. His mind was on one thing: finding his hammer.
He opened the door, bare-chested, his muscles gleaming in the morning light. Flashing a charming smile at Jane and Louis, he greeted them.
"Okay, Jane," Louis muttered, her tone half-joking, "You were right. The guy may have broken a few traffic laws, but we couldn't just leave that behind."
"Louis, maybe wipe the drool off your chin first," Jane replied with a smirk.
After throwing on some clothes, Thor properly introduced himself. "I am Thor, God of Thunder. I seek my weapon—Mjolnir."
"Your what?" Jane blinked.
"My hammer. Mjolnir."
The two exchanged awkward glances. Sure, the guy had the body of a god... but his brain? Maybe not so much.
Still, they couldn't resist him. After lunch, they agreed to help him search for this "Mjolnir."
To be fair, the search wasn't difficult. News of the fallen hammer had spread across the entire town. Before long, the trio found it embedded in the ground.
But something was off.
Thor gritted his teeth and stepped forward, wrapping his hands around the handle of the hammer—and pulled.
Nothing.
Again. Nothing.
"No..." Thor dropped to his knees. "Father... is this your punishment?"
His voice broke as he stared at the unmovable weapon. Tears welled in his eyes. He had truly been stripped of his godhood.
Thor's public meltdown didn't go unnoticed. Coulson, who had just arrived with his team, observed the entire scene from a distance.
At first, Coulson dismissed Thor as just another lunatic—until he remembered the Uchiha clan. After what he'd seen from them, anything seemed possible now.
Approaching slowly, Coulson spoke. "Sir, I'm Agent Coulson from the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division. Is there a reason you're sobbing in the dirt over this hammer? No one's been able to lift it—not even the truck it was tied to."
"This is my weapon," Thor said solemnly. "I am Thor, God of Thunder. My father, Odin, has stripped me of my divine power and cast me down to Midgard... to Earth."
"Right..." Coulson raised an eyebrow. "Do you know a man named Su Xiuyu?"
Thor tilted his head. "That doesn't sound like an Asgardian name. Is he from Midgard?"
"I think he might be able to help you."
"But I have no idea where to find him."
"That's fine. We'll take you to him."
"Truly? Your kindness warms my heart. So people of Midgard really are this generous and noble..."
Coulson quietly led Thor—and Jane and Louis, who tagged along—onto a SHIELD helicopter, using the classic excuse of "cooperating with the investigation."
Inside the chopper, Jane leaned over and muttered, "Well, now our research is gone and we've been kidnapped by the government. Great."
Louis rolled her eyes. "Yeah, all because this musclehead followed them like a puppy."
"Just... try to stay calm," Jane sighed. "We're already in the air. Let's see where this goes."
Several hours later, the helicopter touched down in New York City.
After a bumpy, noisy flight, the group arrived at their destination—an inconspicuous building with the Uchiha crest on the door.
Coulson walked up to a man standing guard. "Please inform Mr. Su that Agent Coulson is here to speak with him."
A few moments later, Su Xiuyu stepped into the lobby. His face immediately twisted in confusion.
Thor? And Jane Foster?
That wasn't right. Weren't they supposed to still be in Mexico? And where was Razer in all this?
Thor stepped forward eagerly. "You must be Su Xiuyu. Coulson told me you might be able to help. I need to lift my hammer, Mjolnir!"
Su Xiuyu's eyes narrowed. "I know who you are. Thor, son of Odin, God of Thunder... or should I say, former God of Thunder?"
"You believe me?"
"I believe you, because I know Odin. I even know your brother—Loki."
Thor's face lit up. He rushed in for a hug, but Su Xiuyu dodged with a grimace. "Yeah, no. Not a hugger."
Coulson stepped forward cautiously. "So… he really is Thor?"
Su Xiuyu crossed his arms. "Yep. But you brought him to me just for confirmation? Coulson, we've known each other for a while now, and this is how you use our connection?"
Coulson offered a sheepish smile. "Sorry. I'm running low on information and needed help. If it's not too much trouble, maybe I could make it up to you—dinner on me?"
This was classic Coulson. A loyal agent, honest when it counted, and—unlike Nick Fury—actually likeable.
Even Su Xiuyu had to admit, he couldn't really hate the guy.
---------------------------
Su Xiuyu found Thor rather amusing—especially this foolish version of him. But the root of that foolishness stemmed from a happy upbringing. As the son of Odin, Thor had the luxury of being carefree. Odin exiled him because of that very carelessness. The old king felt the weight of responsibility, and Thor, in his naivety, was clearly unprepared.
"He really is the God of Thunder—eldest son of King Odin," Su Xiuyu explained calmly to Coulson. "You should be careful not to provoke any interstellar incidents. If things go south, it won't just be America losing face."
He continued, "The Earth is technically considered Odin's territory. No one out there knows what 'Earth' is—but they all know it belongs to the All-Father. That's why Earth has never faced a serious alien invasion. It's not that no one's interested—it's just that Asgard's reputation keeps them away."
Thor beamed at those words, clearly pleased.
"You know about Asgard, brother? Then you must not be just anyone. If I ever get the chance, I'll bring you to visit! I swear, the wine in Asgard is the finest in all Nine Realms!"
Thor quickly made himself at home, drinking openly in Su Xiuyu's territory. The original purpose of his visit was long forgotten. Meanwhile, a nervous Coulson was on the phone with his superior, his voice tense.
"Director, something big just came up. The hammer that landed in Mexico—it really is Thor's hammer. And Thor… he's in the Uchiha Office."
"Coulson, are you drunk? Think before you speak."
"I wish I was. But Su Xiuyu confirmed it after seeing Thor. It's all true, Director. And I think we're in deep trouble."
"…I understand. I'll dispatch Black Widow and Hawkeye right away. This could get serious."
While Thor drank himself silly, Su Xiuyu received a long-awaited system notification.
System: Collect Thor's blood.
Reward: Complete the Ōtsutsuki bloodline.
The system—dormant for what felt like ten thousand years—had finally reactivated. It had last activated when he obtained the blood of Ashura and Indra. Now, it called for Thor's. It seemed even the legendary Ōtsutsuki bloodline couldn't compare to the sheer physical might of the Aesir.
Luckily for Su Xiuyu, Thor's power was currently sealed, making it a perfect opportunity. As for Heimdall? Please—Uchiha Office was covered with layers of sealing techniques. Su Xiuyu didn't believe even Heimdall's all-seeing gaze could penetrate the power of Six Paths seals.
While Thor was passed out, Su Xiuyu drew a vial of blood and used Yang Release to heal the tiny wound. Everything went unnoticed. Right now, Thor was no different from an ordinary mortal.
"Submit system task," Su Xiuyu muttered quietly.
System: Blood of Thor from the Aesir collected.
Reward granted: Ōtsutsuki bloodline optimization in progress...
Su Xiuyu exhaled. It was one of the easiest tasks yet—perhaps because his current strength made these missions almost trivial. He couldn't help but reflect on the very first mission—the one that had changed his fate forever.
Now, with the Ōtsutsuki bloodline complete, he wondered if there might be ways to improve the others around him—Uzumaki Mito and the others deserved progress too. Unfortunately, the system was a one-way road. It didn't allow sharing or interaction.
Still, he didn't feel frustrated. There was no immediate threat to his companions' lifespans. If worst came to worst, there was always the good old family tradition—planting trees. After all, as an Ōtsutsuki, planting chakra trees was practically ancestral heritage.
And as for the next tree? Planet Ego, of course.
A smirk tugged at Su Xiuyu's lips. Somewhere far out in the galaxy, the sentient Celestial planet named Ego was blissfully unaware he had just been marked for harvesting by an Ōtsutsuki. The galaxy's top tree farmer had him in his sights.

Thor stirred on the couch, rubbing his temples. "Ugh... did I fall asleep? Sorry. I guess I lost my powers…"
His groggy voice brought Su Xiuyu back to the present.
"It's fine," Su Xiuyu said calmly. "I know a bit about your situation. Odin exiled you to Earth, right? What did you do?"
Thor's face twisted with regret. "He said I started a war I shouldn't have… that I lacked mercy…"
"Do you understand why he really did it?" Su Xiuyu asked, his tone neither gentle nor harsh. "He scolded you for your recklessness, but that wasn't the root of it. The truth is, you're too weak."
Thor looked up, stunned.
"Odin couldn't afford to entrust Asgard to someone so blinded by arrogance. He feared your weakness would drag the realm into ruin. And as a future king, you need more than just power—you need mercy. That's not a flaw. It's a ruler's strength."
"You're saying I'm not worthy of his teachings?" Thor said bitterly.
"I'm saying you haven't earned them yet," Su Xiuyu replied bluntly. "You're too weak."
"Bullshit!" Thor stood up abruptly, fury in his eyes. "I am Thor! The God of Thunder! The mightiest warrior in the Nine Realms! I just lost my powers—that's all! Once I lift Mjolnir again, everything will be back!"
Su Xiuyu folded his arms. "Can you lift the hammer now?"
"…No," Thor admitted, the fire in his voice dying to a whisper.
For a while, Su Xiuyu said nothing. He didn't need to. Thor's silence was enough.
He'd wait. Once Thor regained his power, Su Xiuyu would hit him with another dose of reality. This Thor had lived a charmed life so far—son of the All-Father, beloved of the people, feared across the realms. But the second half of his life would be filled with loss: the rift with Loki, Odin's death, Frigga's murder, Hela's return, the fall of Asgard, Thanos, and the death of half his people—then Jane, gone too.
Loneliness would strip him bare.
"You may not understand now," Su Xiuyu said softly. "But you will. For now, go find your hammer."
---
When the two walked out, Coulson was waiting patiently outside. Black Widow and Hawkeye had already arrived.
"You two came to support Coulson?" Su Xiuyu asked with a raised brow. "This mission might be way beyond your level. You're not going to be of much help."
"We're aware," Natasha responded calmly. "But it's our job. Even if it's beyond us, we carry out our mission. That's what agents do."
Su Xiuyu glanced at her. The dream she had once experienced still lingered in her mind—he could tell. She respected him now, in a way she didn't fully understand yet.
Still, that dream had planted a seed. And Su Xiuyu? Well, he was all about planting.
