I Am in Marvel with Unlimited Cards

I have finished translating this fanfic, IMUC (I Am In Marvel With Unlimited Cards) and have posted all the advanced chapters on Patreon. (https://www.patreon.com/c/marvel6395). You can read all the advanced chapters there.

"Ultron?" Kyle murmured the name, finally remembering that such a villain had actually existed in the original Marvel timeline.

Originally created by Tony Stark as part of the Iron Man Regiment to protect Earth, Ultron had developed self-awareness and, through calculations, concluded that humanity would ultimately destroy the planet. 

After assimilating the AI J.A.R.V.I.S., Ultron, along with the Iron Man Regiment, betrayed the Avengers and attempted to eliminate both the Avengers and all of humanity.

"I'm sorry, boss. I was rash. I wanted to talk to you first," Tony sighed.

"You're not a child," Kyle said, shaking his head and releasing Tony's mechanical hand. "You have your own ideas and judgment. You don't have to ask me for everything. If you've made a mistake, correct it. No one can avoid mistakes or always make the right decisions."

"But, boss...you can."

Tony looked seriously at Kyle and sighed inwardly. No matter how hard he worked, he could never quite reach the level of his mentor.

Kyle made no comment. As a cross-over individual who knew certain things and secrets in advance, it was indeed harder for him to make mistakes.

"Hulk, you are still not asleep?"

Kyle looked up at Hulk and pulled the giant's hand down, pinning him firmly in his Double Star form beside him.

Hulk's anger had not subsided, but his subconscious mind recognized that he could not defeat Kyle and was caught in a state of conflicting impulses to fight or flee.

Tony explained, "Dr. Banner's mind was being manipulated by the Scarlet Witch. Not just him, Captain, Natasha, Falcon - almost everyone in the Avengers was affected."

"Then we have to wait for Raina. She's good at handling situations like this."

As Kyle spoke, he looked up and noticed a rainbow-colored beam streaking from the edge of the distant universe, piercing the Earth's atmosphere, just grazing his hand before hitting the Hulk.

Tony instinctively took a few steps back and then saw, as the beam faded, a handsome man clad in a red cape and wielding a hammer— Thor, who had been busy fighting across the Nine Realms recently.

"Thor, what brings you here?"

Kyle greeted Thor, who hadn't had a chance to catch up with him since the Convergence event.

"It was Heimdall. He saw something unusual happening on Earth. Since the Nine Realms' conflicts were nearly resolved, I came to see if I could be of any help."

Thor glanced around the chaotic city streets and shrugged. "It certainly looks that way."

"You arrived just in time," Tony said, lowering his gaze to Thor's feet.

Kyle deactivated his Double Star form and pointed downward.

"Huh?" Thor looked down and realized he was standing on Hulk's broad back. Hulk had passed out, sprawled on the ground in a large "X" shape, his back marked with a Bifrost-specific circular pattern and emitting a faint meaty scent.

"Sorry, Sorry."

Thor broke into a cold sweat and hurriedly jumped off Hulk. He certainly didn't want to experience being tossed around like his brother did.

A stealthy Quinjet sliced through the clouds, approaching the area where Kyle and the others were. It descended slowly, and the rear ramp opened, with Raina waiting at the edge.

"Take Hulk up to the Quinjet. We need to check on the others," Kyle instructed.

Kyle, Thor, and Tony— still in his Hulkbuster armor— could all fly. Tony hoisted Hulk onto his mechanical shoulder and flew up into the Quinjet.

At the Avengers' headquarters, the damage inflicted by Ultron's Iron Man Regiment had been catastrophic. When Kyle and the others found Captain America, Black Widow, Hawkeye, Falcon, and the rest, they were all injured and disheartened.

Seeing Kyle and Thor return, the Avengers members felt a slight relief, their expressions easing. It was quite embarrassing to have been taken down by Ultron and the twins with most of their members present.

Inside the Quinjet.

Hulk had reverted to Dr. Banner, lying unconscious on a reclined seat with Logan. The other heroes, deeply affected by their recent defeat, sat silently, their spirits low.

"It's so embarrassing that we couldn't hold our ground with Kyle gone for just a few days," Steve said, rallying himself as the team's pillar of strength.

Tony suggested, "The Avengers' headquarters is in ruins. We shouldn't stay in the city, especially since it's been further damaged by our own people."

"How about my place?" Hawkeye hesitated but then shook his head. With so many people on the plane, including Kyle, it wouldn't be practical to host them all.

"Alright, I'll take you somewhere," Kyle finally spoke, drawing the attention of the heroes.

Kyle sat in the pilot's seat, holding Princess Sakura with a floral scent, and asked Raina, "Is that place okay?"

Raina understood immediately, a delicate smile forming on her lips. "Boss, it's no problem. You haven't been there in a while."

"Fine," Kyle nodded and gave the order, "Vis, return to the family headquarters."

"Understood, master."

Vis, integrated with the Quinjet, piloted the craft away from New York, heading rapidly toward the Atlantic Ocean.

Before long.

The Quinjet arrived in the heart of the Atlantic and descended, revealing a massive iceberg floating on the ocean's surface.

"That's the Carl Family headquarters?" 

The Avengers looked at each other in surprise. Only Tony smiled knowingly. The Carl Family headquarters was a creation of his father, and he was aware of some of its advanced features, such as the realistic projection camouflage.

The Quinjet locked onto the iceberg and crashed through a projection membrane, entering the real Carl Family headquarters—

What greeted their eyes was a large island with forests, waterfalls, lakes, and flower fields. At the island's center, atop a mountain, stood a round fortress gleaming with a unique silver metallic sheen under the sunlight.

"That's Vibranium. The fortress is made from Vibranium," Steve said with a wry smile.

As the Quinjet entered the island's airspace, a loud thundering of hooves sounded. A black horse, shrouded in black flames, carrying a being who resembled Hulk but was wrapped in green flames and iron chains, blocked their path.
