บท 488: Chapter 487: Grant Ward's Mission
Grant Ward had already received a notification from Hydra, instructing him to prepare to become a supervising agent for a ninja, essentially becoming a mentor for this new recruit.
Although Grant Ward was eager for the existence of ninjas, he had never had close contact with them in an official capacity because ninja matters were handled by Coulson and other agents.
However, he had heard many stories about them.
In fact, Grant Ward had briefly interacted with ninja from the Sand Village while using Hydra's identity and wearing an electrostatic disguise mask. However, he didn't have a deep understanding of this group.
But even from that brief encounter, he had obtained a body-enhancement serum, greatly strengthening his own abilities and making him aware of the true danger posed by this group.
To have the opportunity to have prolonged contact with ninjas now, Grant Ward couldn't help but marvel at Hydra's power.
Grant Ward soon arrived outside Nick Fury's office and knocked on the door.
As the door was knocked, Nick Fury pressed a button on his desk, and the door opened automatically.
Grant Ward entered and stood before Nick Fury, respectfully saying, "Grant Ward reporting to you, sir."
Nick Fury looked at the agent before him and then spoke, "Do you know why I called you here?"
Grant Ward's expression remained serious as he replied straightforwardly, "I don't know."
"The organization has a very serious mission for you, which is of great importance to S.H.I.E.L.D.," Nick Fury said, pausing for a moment and then looking at Grant Ward.
Meeting Nick Fury's gaze, Grant Ward's expression remained steadfast.
"Agent Coulson recommended you for this mission, but Agent Hill believes you're not suitable for it," Nick Fury continued.
At this point, Nick Fury paused again, looking at Grant Ward.
Seeing the serious expression on Grant Ward's face, Nick Fury smiled. "Don't you want to know more about the mission first?"
Grant Ward remained serious as he replied earnestly, "When the mission is assigned to me, I will naturally understand it."
"If it's not my mission, according to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s regulations, I don't need to know about it."
Hearing Grant Ward's response, Nick Fury nodded inwardly. What he needed was an agent who would strictly adhere to S.H.I.E.L.D.'s regulations.
He needed to instill in Kabuto a sense that S.H.I.E.L.D. agents were highly respected and followed the organization's rules.
"Very well. Despite objections, I've decided to entrust this mission to you. I hope you won't disappoint me," Nick Fury said, taking out a file from his desk—it was Kabuto's record, containing the latest information.
Grant Ward received a record from Nick Fury, which contained information about his target for this mission.
Opening the file, Grant Ward read the details: Kabuto, a wandering ninja, with the rank of Genin and a Chakra Detection Test grade of D.
Apart from that, there was a brief report on Kabuto's combat with Barton and the information revealed during the battle.
Given the scarcity of information on Kabuto, Nick Fury explained, "Kabuto is a new field agent we've recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. According to S.H.I.E.L.D. protocol, new field agents require supervision to guide them through their initial training period."
"You'll be responsible for helping him understand the rules and regulations of S.H.I.E.L.D. field agents, as well as what to pay attention to during missions."
"This task is now assigned to you."
True to what the organization had told him, Grant Ward responded firmly, "I'll ensure the mission's completion!"
Nick Fury nodded and continued, "Your task is not only to be his guide and help him understand the rules of S.H.I.E.L.D. field agents."
"In addition to that, you also have an eighth-level mission."
"You'll supervise all of Kabuto's actions and ascertain whether his decision to join S.H.I.E.L.D. was influenced by another organization."
"You need to confirm that he's not a spy sent by another organization."
Hearing Nick Fury's explanation of the additional task, Grant Ward didn't hesitate and replied, "I'll ensure the mission's completion!"
"Good, you can go about your business now. I'll arrange for you to meet Kabuto and explain your role when the time comes."
"Yes, sir!"
Grant Ward accepted the mission and left the office as instructed by Nick Fury.
…
Meanwhile, Phil Coulson, after obtaining 200 energy blocks from S.H.I.E.L.D. Warehouse No. 1, drove to the Charles Agency.
It was already evening, and the sunset cast a beautiful glow across the sky.
Parking his car at the entrance of the Charles Agency, Coulson carried two briefcases and entered the building.
As he entered, he headed straight to the reception desk.
Upon seeing Coulson, the receptionist, Selene, greeted him, "Welcome, Agent Coulson. What kind of mission are you here to entrust this time?"
As she spoke, Selene glanced at the boxes Coulson was carrying.
Coulson looked at Selene, the receptionist, knowing that S.H.I.E.L.D. had investigated her, but her identity remained a mystery.
But one thing was certain—she wasn't a ninja or one of the werewolves who had allied with Charles. S.H.I.E.L.D. was curious about her identity.
"I need to make a mission request. Could you please notify Charles Doyle?" Coulson asked.
Selene shook her head, "Agent Coulson, Lord Charles is not in the Agency right now. I can arrange for another ninja to handle your mission confirmation."
Coulson had no objections to another ninja handling the task.
"Thank you, then!" Coulson replied.
Selene turned to Michael beside her and said, "Michael, please take this gentleman to the meeting room for a moment!"
