The first day Schiller returned to Marvel New York, Peter came to the clinic with his head down, his arm still hanging with a collapse band. Schiller looked him up and down and said, "Your trip to the West doesn't seem to be progressing well."

Peter sighed and sat down across from Schiller, put the bag on his lap, and accidentally touched his injured arm. He let out a shout of "ah" and then sighed again. "Putting aside everything else, I may not really be suitable for a superhero," he said.

"What's wrong? Did you meet a difficult opponent?"

"The opponent is actually not difficult to deal with at all, but..."

In Peter's description, Schiller heard about his and Captain America's ludicrous trip to the West. Steve is a veteran, experienced and, as Captain America, he was assigned to a team in the past made up of elite warriors. He has been through a thousand refinements and is skilled at a variety of combat techniques. However, the new recruit, Peter, is essentially a blank slate. For fighting, he uses rogue boxing and for defense he utilizes his physical strength. He lacks tactical literacy.

In order to exercise the little spider, Steve deliberately didn't let S.H.I.E.L.D. arrange the trip and set off with Peter himself.

Their first problem on the road trip was that Peter couldn't fill his appetite. Peter is still in the growth period of his spider mutation and needs to eat a lot of food every day. Even though Steve has money, it's difficult to guarantee that every meal will have the right place to eat. Most of the time, they just buy some fast food to bring in their backpack, taking two bites when they're hungry.

But Peter ate quite a lot. They brought enough food for two meals in their backpacks, but Peter ate it all. So, the two of them had to change their itinerary and take a bus to the nearest town after the first one.

The prices in the town weren't high, but Peter still ate thousands of dollars' worth of food. The town didn't accept credit cards, and Steve's cash was quickly spent. So, their road trip had come to an end before it even started.

Steve had to call Coulson to send him money, and it was finally S.H.I.E.L.D. that drove them both to their destination and solved the problem of Peter's meals. Since the last time Schiller took Spider-Man and Pikachu to loot the food of S.H.I.E.L.D., they have urgently developed new compressed dry food with nutrient solution. This food can provide a large amount of energy beyond what is required by ordinary people. This avoids the embarrassing situation of all the restaurants along the way being emptied by Peter.

Steve started scouting for Ninja tracks after arriving at the location. Peter learned a lot in the process, but he still messed up most things.

He has superhuman strength and resilience, but he is also talkative and hyperactive. At first, Peter didn't know anything, so he obediently followed Steve's lead and watched how he gathered information. But then, as Peter learned a bit, his boneheaded chatter and the hyperactivity gene kicked in again.

Peter learned a basic skill, so he felt he could do better. When Steve wanted to close in towards the wall, Peter jumped over the wall. When Steve wanted to get close to a security officer and knock him out, Peter climbed straight through the roof and jumped in front of the security officer. He said hello to him before punching him in the face.

In short, the two guys with completely different combat styles screwed up all the reconnaissance operations because they had no tacit understanding while working together.

The good thing is, the ninja group seems to be confident that no one will come to the wild west, so their trail is easy to follow. It didn't take long for Steve and Peter to locate their small stronghold.

What happened next was even more breathless.

Originally, they only had to deal with a few low-level Ninjas. Steve had correctly guessed that this trip was just a warm-up, and that the Ninjas, though agile, would quickly disappear and not be able to fight.

However, the problem arose when one of the Ninjas disappeared. Steve swung his shield and the ninja vanished, only for Peter's face to appear in its place.

The hard shield made a loud "bang!" as it hit Peter's arm, breaking it on the spot. This was the first time in his life that Captain America had fired at friendly forces, and the effect was quite impressive.

"Steve told me it would be better to deal with these enemies from behind, so I swung over the beams to sneak up on them from behind," Peter said. "But who knew he would switch to a frontal attack again? I never knew he was so powerful. I flew straight backwards and was slapped against the wall."

"Those ninjas were knocked down by him in three or five blows, but I was also slapped down by him in one go," he continued, a tad pitifully.

Schiller couldn't hold back his laughter. Peter glared at him resentfully and said, "Laugh, laugh. I've been stuck with Coulson, Natasha, and Matt for days."

Schiller struggled to compose himself and reassured Peter, "Don't be sad. You should feel honored. The last time someone was swung by the captain's shield and sent flying was the head of Hydra."

"I know I talk a lot, but I can't help myself. I get excited when I do. Child..."

"Perhaps you've heard the saying that 'sometimes words speak louder than fists'? Schiller said.

After a while, Steve did not come, but Natasha did. The female agent said with a headache, "Stark walked to talk things over with Director Nick and bumped into Steve, who came back. The two men fought over it."

"Then what did you come to me for? I can't pull them apart," Schiller replied.

Natasha covered her forehead and said, "The director has found someone to pull them apart, but now the problem is that Steve always mentions Stark's father. Stark, dead or alive, does not believe that Steve is his father's old comrade, Captain America."

"Or maybe he believes it and just doesn't want to admit it," Schiller said.

Natasha continued, "Anyway, as S.H.I.E.L.D.'s senior psychological advisor, you have to step in now to mediate... Listen, the situation is this: Iron Man and Captain America are quarreling. Director Nick wanted to participate in the mediation, but the two of them combined to scold him."

"Coulson also wanted to walk up and persuade them to stop fighting, but all three people separately thought Coulson favored the other person. Nick felt that Coulson should help him persuade the two to resolve their conflict, Stark has long known that Coulson is a big fan of Captain America and felt that he would definitely pull the strings, and Captain America felt that Coulson is a righteous man and should not be misunderstood by the other two parties..."

"Simply put, each of the three parties does not trust the other, but the scene really can't find a more credible fourth party."

"Apparently, Nick wants them both to join the S.H.I.E.L.D. organization's team, which is why the current situation has arisen, right?" Schiller said.

Natasha was a bit surprised by Schiller's acumen, but she still said, "I think it's a favorable scenario for anyone. After all, if two people do things their own way, there will be a lot of problems, like this time with Steve and Peter..."

"But apparently, the lack of success in Steve and Peter's operation is Peter's problem, not Captain America's," Schiller said.

Peter's resentment deepened and he said, "Hey, doctor, nice comforting words!"

Schiller said, "Speaking of persuasion, I do have a better person."

With that, he lifted the Pikachu sitting next to him by the neck and threw it into Natasha's arms.

Natasha grabbed Pikachu's two short hands and brought them to the front of her face and said, "I know you have a talking yellow hair rat, but what use is it? It can't even beat Nick, the weakest of the three."

A few hours later, when it was dark, there was a loud "bang bang" door knocking outside Schiller's clinic.

As soon as he opened the door, Steve, Stark, Coulson, and Natasha were all present. Pikachu was hugged by Iron Man in his armor and Stark tightly covered its mouth with his hands.

Schiller opened the door and let a few people in. He said, "You'd better not be photographed by reporters about what you're doing now, Stark, or the animal protection organization will drive you crazy."

"No animal protection organization will protect a mouse like this!" Stark said. As he spoke, he roughly picked up Pikachu's tail and threw it at Schiller.

Coulson seemed to be ten years older, and Natasha leaned against the door frame and said, "Doctor, you really provided us with a very effective solution!" She gritted her teeth at the words "very effective".

Schiller handed the phone to Pikachu to let it charge. Steve sat down and said, "God, I don't even know what just happened..."

"I thought Peter was the noisiest person in the world, but I didn't expect..." As he spoke, he showed a painful expression. It was obvious that the recent rounds of abuse had almost made the good-tempered Steve collapse.

"He is indeed the noisiest person in the world, because Pikachu is a mouse," Coulson said. "It used swear words that I have never heard in my life and cursed everyone present. Nick couldn't even find a chance to interject, speaking with a Canadian accent from top to bottom of S.H.I.E.L.D. Everything from Nick Fury's blindfold to the drinking glass on the desk."

"He babbled on and on for at least six hours, without repeating a word. The walls of S.H.I.E.L.D. are almost engraved with its voice...I don't even know how he can hold so many words in such a small body!" Coulson said with a trembling tone.

"We had to feed him to gag him, but he ate a month's worth of donuts in the office and emptied all the drinks in the juicer. It took all of us to stop him. You have to fight yourself!"

"He also blew up four mobile phones and an Iron Man mech," Natasha added. "This also includes Nick's high-level security mobile phone, so now he has to go to the maintenance department himself to restore the inside data."

"The idea of persuasion is good though, isn't it? Didn't you feel the joy of unity when you were teaming up to catch it?" Schiller gloated.

Stark, who suffered the most, gritted his teeth and said, "Yeah, I never imagined that I would be able to chat with this old man about how to cook rats for half an hour!"

"I think you now know what I often say..."

"Yeah..." Steve spoke first, and then Stark looked at him. Sparks flew in the eyes of the two, but they still said in unison: "Words are more powerful than fists!"
