MXenes have attracted growing interest in electrochemical energy storage owing to their high electronic conductivity and editable surface chemistry. Besides, rendering MXenes with spectrum defense properties further broadens their versatile applications. However, the development of MXenes suffers from weak van der Waal interaction-driven self-restacking that leads to random alignment and inferior interface microenvironments. Herein, a nacre-inspired MXene film is tailored by dual-filling of 2-ureido-4[1H]-pyrimidinone (UPy)-modified polyvinyl alcohol (PVA-UPy) and carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The dual-nanofillers engineering endows the nanocomposite film with a highly ordered structure (a Herman's order value of 0.838), a high mechanical strength (139.5 MPa), and continuous conductive pathways of both the ab plane and c-axis. As a proof-of-concept, the tailored nanocomposite film achieves a considerable capacitance of 508.2 F cm
