Ultron didn't even glance at his followers, nor did he pay them any attention. Anyway, they'd probably be able to get up on their own once the short circuit ended.
The others standing behind Peter watched the punch with considerable astonishment. Luke Cage even leaned closer to Iron Fist and asked, "He's only been learning boxing from you for a few weeks, and he's already this good?"
"—He didn't learn boxing from me."
Iron Fist explained half of it, then Peter shouted, "Does everyone remember the plan? The goal is a perfect ghost-grab! Now, move out!"
The Defenders dispersed in a flurry. The so-called "ghost grab" was simply showing their faces in front of Ultron to avoid being captured. The Avengers had analyzed what Ultron would do, and their conclusion was very clear: Ultron would attempt to forcibly modify other heroes, so even if it was just to annoy Ultron, they had to ensure they wouldn't be captured.
Moreover, they have other tasks to complete.
Everyone quickly left, leaving Peter alone to confront Ultron. Ultron, of course, understood their plan: "I saw it all. You've installed a lot of equipment in the city to forcibly sever parts of the network if S.W.O.R.D., Thor, and Magneto are ineffective. That includes New York City. I know exactly where those devices are, Spider-Man."
"If you know I have a friend who can't be observed, how do you know those things are still in the same place, Ultron?"
Ultron remained silent, simply floating up and spreading its wings. Immediately, car sirens blared wildly throughout New York City. Every large screen displayed the actions of these rebels.
I may not know where these devices originally were, but I'm sure you do, don't you?
As Ultron spoke, he watched as almost all the vehicles in New York City started moving simultaneously and then crashed into Spider-Man. Peter's spider-sense went off incessantly, creating a chaotic scene as all the vehicles in New York City rushed towards him.
But does that matter to Spider-Man?
"Have you forgotten that the ground has never been my battlefield? I'm Spider-Man."
Peter leaped onto the Times Square screen and shouted at Ultron. Ultron simply looked up at Peter, and the next second, Peter saw a car rushing towards him, with no one in the driver's seat. He jumped up, stuck the car to his web, and then slammed it down on Ultron.
Ultron easily tore the car in two with its wings made of steel feathers.
Your witty remarks mean nothing to me, Spider-Man. For example, artificial intelligence doesn't have the concept of "forgetting," even though you seem to remember. On the contrary, I can tell you a witty remark.
As Ultron continued speaking, he caused all the surrounding screens to display the same image: a Boeing plane was speeding towards New York, its destination Times Square, where only Spider-Man was looking around.
Congratulations! Your time travel was successful. Welcome back to September 11th.
"What?!"
[Yes, this is thanks to humans installing Wi-Fi on airplanes. Similarly, now every car is connected to the internet, isn't that convenient?]
Ultron looked at Peter, who, disregarding everything else, used his webs to stick the two buildings together and then charged towards the Boeing plane that was supposed to mimic 911. As for Ultron, he calmly created a Bible using nanobots and began preaching to his followers.
But Nick Fury, who was observing the entire situation from the New York underground, was frantic. He used the most primitive methods to receive all the information, but all he got was completely bad news, not good news.
"Sir, a massive air disaster has occurred in Tokyo. Dozens of passenger planes have crashed in Tokyo, and the S.H.I.E.L.D. team in Tokyo and the superheroes stationed there have lost contact."
Nick Fury waved his hand dismissively: "Investigate again! Report back!"
"Sir, Ultron has raided Genosha and seized the master mold resources from Magneto. He is now mass-producing Ultron robots—it is speculated that their structure is exactly the same as that of the mechanical Avengers."
"Say that again?" Nick Fury laughed in exasperation. "You mean, an Omega-level mutant who controls electromagnetism can't beat an artificial intelligence made of electrical signals and metal? What's Magneto good for?"
"We don't know the situation yet, sir," the agent said nervously. But soon, another agent rushed over and reported the situation: "Sir, there's been a distortion of optical phenomena in Kenosha. According to our informant, although hearing, smell, taste, and touch are all perfectly normal, all the visual information is distorted."
Fury slapped his forehead; that was Mysterio's initial helmet technology, the light particle projector. Because of its significant limitations, Mysterio had long since replaced it with a second-generation helmet that used a neural transmission device and a hallucination system within the Danger Chamber to generate realistic illusions.
The biggest drawback of the second-generation helmet is that it interferes with the human brain's perception, directly generating hallucinations in the human brain.
Magneto is immune to this, so they always believed that Magneto could not possibly be affected.
As a result, Ultron was reverted to a different version.
"and then?"
"The current report is that Magneto's children and other mutants from Genosha are fighting against Ultron. Also, it seems that due to the special nature of the X-gene, there have been problems during the forced modification."
Nick Fury couldn't help but chuckle. The so-called spreading of the gospel was actually more like a crusade. Ultron treated all humans equally. Those who were willing to accept Ultron's gospel would voluntarily accept the transformation, while those who were unwilling would be passively captured and transformed.
Some people genuinely believed in Ultron's theories, while others were terminally ill and believed that Ultron's transformations could bring them a new life.
There are also some people who are mentally ill and believe that the US government has deceived everyone and that a huge conspiracy is controlling everything behind the scenes. This may be true, but they choose to believe that Ultron can bring them the truth and transform them.
But for the vast majority of people, those who are unwilling to become Ultron voluntarily, and those whom Ultron is unwilling to film, the outcome will likely not be good.
"So—we'd better hope that the Avengers actually have some way to deal with Ultron."
