Watching his self-crafted Super Skrull Legion, K'lrt couldn't help feeling a bit proud.
However, there were a few significant figures who were notably absent.
Leaders from the Justice League, like Batman, along with Batman three "old teammates" — Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and Green Arrow.
It wasn't that K'lrt didn't want to replicate these four individuals he simply couldn't.
To create a Super Skrull, one must obtain the genetic sample of the individual to be copied and construct a replication module.
Only after implanting the genetic module into the body of a Skrull soldier would they transform into the imitated individual and acquire their abilities, often even surpassing the original in strength.
Over the years, K'lrt had managed to obtain genetic samples from most of the superpowered individuals that had appeared on Earth, enabling him to create the formidable group of Super Skrulls now before him...
To his surprise, despite all his efforts, he had been unable to obtain genetic samples from Batman, Wonder Woman, Cyborg, and Green Arrow in the past two years — four individuals who had been particularly elusive.
K'lrt suspected that these individuals had anticipated such a possibility and had been extremely cautious in their appearances.
Additionally, these four were adept at vanishing without a trace, making it impossible to pinpoint their locations...
Now, with the Skrulls facing collective panic, K'lrt finally decided to stop waiting for these four to surface.
He resolved to lead the nearly complete Super Skrull Legion to forcefully suppress humanity.
Even without replicating these four most prominent superheroes, the combined force of the many Super Skrulls present was undeniably formidable.
There was no entity or power on Earth that could hinder their movements at this moment.
Even nuclear weapons did not scare K'lrt.
"Listen up, warriors, our target is New York," K'lrt announced loudly.
"It is in New York that we will proclaim the existence of the Skrulls to the world and show humanity that the Skrulls possess a force they cannot resist.
Even if the Justice League assembles, even if all the world armies unite, they cannot defeat us now."
"After today, the Skrulls will no longer lurk in the shadows but will stand proudly in the sunlight, commanding the gaze of humanity."
"After today, we will be the rulers of Earth!"
His words were passionate and seemed almost magical, inspiring the Super Skrulls before him.
The Skrulls had been silent on Earth for far too long.
Over a decade, nearly twenty years, and the Skrulls had nearly forgotten that they were once a mighty race in the universe, not just the well-known refugee race of the present era.
As part of K'lrt plan, they had anticipated his ideas.
Finally, the plan was moving into its final phase.
Although it seemed to be happening sooner than expected, it was enough to excite them.
After today, Earth would become their new home.
The Skrulls would rise again, relying on the power of these Super Skrulls to make their way back into the cosmos.
And the indigenous people of Earth, the humans...
Their fate was clear: they would become servants under the rule of the Skrulls.
"Understood."
Everyone shouted loudly, their expressions fervent.
"Let go."
"Take action."
"After today, we will be heroes of the Skrulls, just like the superheroes of the human world."
"The difference is, we are the superheroes of the Skrulls!"
After K'lrt spoke, he led the way out of the base, entering the spaceship parked on the landing pad.
One by one, the Super Skrulls followed him onto the massive spacecraft.
Soon, the spaceship took off from a desolate, dimly-lit planet, heading toward a glowing blue Earth.
If someone else were there, they would immediately realize something significant.
The Super Skrull base was located deep on the moon.
They were not on Earth at all.
No wonder Anton and his team had scoured the Earth without finding any clues about the Super Skrulls.
K'lrt had set up the base on the moon.
In New York, within the Men in Black underground base, alarms were sounding.
"There is a spaceship appearing in Earth orbit, estimated to enter Earth in 4 minutes."
"Calculating the trajectory of the spaceship, their most likely landing site is within the United States..."
Expressions of horror appeared among the personnel.
"Their target is New York!"
"Emergency report!"
"Emergency report!"
The Men in Black agents in the intelligence department sprang into action.
Despite the urgency, these mentally tough agents did not retreat but held their positions and continuously reported to their superiors.
In just a few seconds, Anton received an urgent report from the Men in Black organization.
After quickly understanding the situation, there were still just over 2 minutes until the spaceship would enter Earth atmosphere.
"The Skrulls?" Anton looked up into the sky, reflecting on the intelligence briefing he had just received.
"They weren't on Earth..."
He suddenly realized why they had been unable to find any information on Super Skrull K'lrt no matter how hard they searched.
The enemy had never been on Earth.
It was a mistake!
He immediately recalled a past encounter in Washington where K'lrt, in the guise of Captain Marvel Carol Danvers, had fled beyond Earth...
Originally, Anton thought that K'lrt was just using the cosmic advantage to facilitate his escape.
Now, it seemed K'lrt might have had other plans.
"They will be here in less than two minutes... There not enough time to launch missiles."
Anton mind raced.
"No measures are as good as a direct confrontation."
Unperturbed, he smirked and instructed, "Let them come. No need for any action, let them come to New York."
"What?"
This directive baffled the Men in Black agents handling the intelligence.
"Do as I say, no need for you to act."
Anton spoke calmly: "We are prepared, and the Justice League has been waiting for a long time."
"Understood!"
The agents finally grasped Anton intention.
Bring it on!
I'm not afraid!
Meanwhile, news of the spaceship approaching Earth quickly reached the ears of leaders around the world.
Within minutes, nations around the globe mobilized, and military forces began to assemble.
The head of the World Security Council also immediately sought out Anton.
However, Anton didn't respond right away.
He was in conversation with John Kler.
In fact, after receiving specific intelligence about the spaceship, the most anxious entity wasn't the World Security Council, but the U.S. government.
Everyone could track the trajectory of the spaceship.
Its destination?
The most famous city within U.S. borders.
For some reason, it was also the city most frequently targeted by alien invasions—none other than New York.
