Ultron smiled, looking directly into Stark's eyes, and provocatively said:
"That's good you asked me."
Ultron said with an ironic smile on his face.
"Because I really wanted this time to explain my evil plan."
Ultron continued while making a hand gesture that began to glow in a blue hue.
Immediately after, Ultron fired a beam in the direction of the heroes. Peter, with his spider sense, easily managed to dodge it. However, Tony was not as lucky and was hit directly by the beam, which pulled him in Ultron's direction. Stark seized the situation to launch himself towards Ultron, and the two started fighting in the air.
At that moment, with a simple hand gesture, Ultron summoned a swarm of robots that appeared in droves, like a tide of metal invading the ship. Thor, the God of Thunder, raised his hammer Mjölnir, ready to face the approaching robots. He threw the hammer with force, hitting the robots and knocking them down shortly after.
The battle between Tony and Ultron in the air was getting increasingly difficult. The two fought fiercely, exchanging punches and firing energy blasts at each other. The environment was filling up with debris and sparks.
Returning to Steve, who raised his shield and threw it towards the robots. He blocked the robots' attacks and, at the same time, counterattacked with great skill.
While Thor and Steve fought against the horde of robots, the other heroes joined forces to face the threat. Natasha fought a robot on the upper deck, while Clint shot his arrows in the direction where the robots were emerging, simultaneously helping his teammates. They covered each other while neutralizing the robots with their combat skills and precise aim.
"Ah, this must be a joke."
Peter said with an indifferent expression behind his mask as he looked at the robots invading the ship.
As the battle unfolded intensely, a gray beam of light suddenly appeared out of nowhere and hit Thor, who was in the midst of destroying a robot.
In another part of the battlefield, Steve tried to advance against Wanda. However, with a quick and precise movement of her hands, she unleashed a burst of her magic. The force of the magic was so intense that it sent Steve flying.
At the bottom of the ship, where Klaue had fallen, he rose with a furious expression and impatient gestures as saltwater dripped from his clothing. He turned to one of his henchmen, a hulking figure covered in tattoos and scars, and growled:
Unauthorized duplication: this tale has been taken without consent. Report sightings.
"Come on, shoot them."
Klaue said, still struggling due to the pain of his arm being cut by Ultron.
"But who, boss?"
Said the tattooed and scarred henchman.
"EVERYONE."
Klaue shouted angrily.
After Klaue said those words with a furious grin on his face, his henchman quickly rose and went to the other thugs who were hiding behind crates and barrels. He signaled for them to prepare to attack while grabbing a machine gun hanging from his shoulder.
"THE BOSS SAID TO SHOOT EVERYBODY."
The tattooed henchman shouted at the other thugs.
The thugs nodded in response.
After the arrival of the criminals on the ship's deck, the environment turned chaotic. The heavily armed thugs began firing in all directions, turning the place into a war zone.
However, Natasha, with her cunning and skill, managed to dodge the shots. She moved with agility, disappearing and reappearing in the shadows, and with each reappearance, another thug fell unconscious.
Meanwhile, Clint wasted no time. With his remarkable archery skills, he shot his arrows with impressive speed. Each arrow was launched with deadly accuracy, finding its mark among Klaue's thugs. With each arrow fired, a thug fell, reducing the enemy's forces.
As for Steve and Wanda, Captain America tried to approach the sorceress but ended up being thrown away by her magic. To make matters worse for Steve, Pietro appeared to help his sister. He appeared so quickly that time seemed to stand still around him, and he took advantage of the opportunity to punch Steve in the face, knocking him to the ground.
Seeing this, Peter had an idea.
"Thor, the hammer."
Peter said, who was on the other side of the deck, drawing Thor's attention with a simple hand gesture.
Understanding what Peter meant, Thor acted quickly. He hurled the hammer Mjölnir in Pietro's direction, who, upon seeing the hammer passing slowly in front of him, had the incredible idea of trying to grab it. But when he grabbed it, he was also thrown away.
The battle between Stark and Ultron intensified to the point where they ended up outside the ship. On the other side of the deck, Steve and Peter had just destroyed all the remaining robots, and with Thor's help, Peter had managed to defeat Pietro.
"Stay put, speedy."
Peter said before launching a quick attack that made Pietro faint, temporarily removing him from the fight. He acted swiftly to prevent the brother from further interfering in the situation.
Ultron, realizing that his main plan wasn't going as smoothly as planned, turned to a destroyed robot near Wanda. With a sinister tone, he said:
"Wandinha, it's time to play some mind games."
After hearing those words from the robot possessed by Ultron, Wanda nodded and left the deck, heading outside the ship, where Bruce was waiting anxiously inside a ship, just waiting for the signal to turn green.
Ultron was determined to carry out his evil plan, even in the face of setbacks. While the battle on the ship's deck was reaching a momentary truce with Pietro and the defeated robots, Ultron focused on his next moves.
Wanda, following Ultron's orders, left the deck and headed outside the ship, where Bruce Banner was waiting in a ship. The scientist appeared visibly apprehensive.
Meanwhile, Stark and Ultron continued their battle in the air, exchanging blows and firing energy blasts at each other, creating an increasingly chaotic and destructive environment around the ship. Sparks flew, and debris fell into the sea.
