Chapter 682: Tit-for-Tat, Verbal Confrontation
Soon, with the concerted efforts of a number of official agencies, the temporary leader, who did not understand why he suddenly received support from a large number of official agency members, contacted the Avengers again and asked the Avengers to arrange the Avengers to protect him as soon as possible.
The temporary leader said that he was now in a temporary office and was worried that he would be killed by a supernatural person who suddenly appeared while working for the country. At that time, the entire America would fall into chaos again. I think the Avengers should not want to see such a thing happen, right?
To be honest, when more and more official agencies contacted him, the temporary leader had already guessed the ideas of these official agencies. They just wanted to take the opportunity to deal with the Avengers.
However, the temporary leader did not refuse this matter because these official agencies had saved S.H.I.E.L.D. before, and he wanted to cooperate with the Avengers more. Of course, he could not refuse, so the temporary leader chose to go with the flow.
After all, for the temporary leader, there are no eternal enemies or eternal friends. Even though he really wants to stand on the side of the Avengers, the Avengers, who have not given a response, are likely to look down on him.
Therefore, the temporary leader can only use the power of official agencies to put pressure on the Avengers. As long as he can achieve his goal in the end, protect his personal safety, and show his ability to control power, he will offend the Avengers. Anyway, the temporary leader has figured it out. Probably when he wanted the Avengers to be bodyguards, he had offended the Avengers...
And when the Avengers who had finally calmed down received the news from the temporary leader, they were upset again. They never thought that this temporary leader would be so clueless!
You must know that the previous leader never wanted to cause trouble for the Avengers. Even when the Avengers were collectively targeted by a group of official agencies, the leader just pretended not to know and had no intention of intervening between the two sides.
Later, when the Avengers officially became one of the official organizations, or got the official title, the leader had no intention of refusing.
Because the leader saw it clearly and thought clearly, he knew that whether it was the Avengers or the official organizations that joined hands, it was not something he could solve as a leader, nor was it something he could covet. Therefore, he just had to be a good leader, do what he should do, and ignore what he shouldn't do. He didn't need to think so much.
Facing such a leader, the Avengers didn't feel it before, but now that the temporary leader came to power, the Avengers felt how reliable the previous leader was...
"How is Tony? Have you developed a new mecha?" After a while, the Avengers vented their dissatisfaction and looked at the Martian Hunter on the side and asked.
It can be said that when Tony Stark was conducting mecha research, basically no one could get involved, even the Martian Manhunter. However, after all, the Martian Manhunter has special abilities. The Avengers thought that the Martian Manhunter might have seen the progress of Tony Stark's side?
"Don't look at me, why don't you just ask Jarvis? I won't peek at you at will!" The Martian Manhunter looked at the Avengers righteously and said, causing the Avengers to curl their lips, including Reed Richards and Bruce Banner who came out to watch the fun.
When they first entered the Avengers and knew the Martian Manhunter's abilities, Reed Richards and others must have been very uncomfortable, but with so much time passing, Reed Richards and others have gotten used to it like the Avengers.
It's not that the Martian Manhunter really has no previous record of peeping, but that although the Martian Manhunter may peek, his mouth is still very tight. As long as it involves the secrets of the parties involved, the Martian Manhunter basically won't tell.
"I really can't wait!" Just when the Avengers were thinking about whether to ask Jarvis to interrupt Tony Stark, Jarvis had already told Tony Stark the news. Tony Stark walked out with an unhappy face, sneering as he walked.
"Let's go?" Martian Manhunter nodded and asked Tony Stark.
"Hmm?" Pietro reacted the fastest. He looked at Tony Stark who was a little stunned and shouted at Martian Manhunter, "Martian Manhunter, you still say you didn't spy on Tony?!"
"Ahem!" Martian Manhunter, who realized that he accidentally let the cat out of the bag, couldn't help but cough twice in embarrassment, and then quickly closed his mouth, waiting for Tony Stark to speak in person.
"Since these official agencies want to compete with us, let's go together. My mecha is ready. While we show our strength, we can defeat them with my mecha, and they will have nothing to say..." Tony Stark glanced at Martian Manhunter and spoke.
"But I think they don't have any powerful means. Their purpose this time is not to confront us head-on, but more importantly to force us to send someone to be the temporary leader's bodyguard..."
"Don't take it lightly..." Martian Manhunter's eyes flashed slightly after hearing Tony Stark's words, and he reminded softly, "The official agency will definitely not use any good things, but if General Ross takes action, there will still be some trouble. , at least your mecha is hardly a match for General Ross.
"It's okay, don't we still have you here?" Tony Stark raised the corner of his mouth slightly, looked at Martian Manhunter and said with a smile, "Mechas and other things are just superficial skills. I also prepared an anti-Haos for General Ross. ...Anti-Titan mecha, but that mecha may not be a match for General Ross, so when my mecha fights with them, how about you quietly attack them behind the scenes with your own power?"
"Isn't this not good?" Martian Manhunter opened his mouth slightly, feeling eager to try, but also a little embarrassed.
"Okay, Steve, tell them to find an open place and we'll meet in half an hour. Don't wait if you're late!" Tony Stark directly helped Martian Manhunter make the decision, looked at Steve and said .
"Okay." Steve nodded and quickly made arrangements.
The official agencies that have received the news will naturally not give up. They have already passed this decision. Naturally, they will go all out to force the Avengers to become the leader's bodyguards, and then find ways to expose the Avengers to their own secrets. identity, in order to achieve the ultimate goal against the Avengers...
Therefore, soon, in a stadium, people from the official organization and the Avengers met here. Of course, along with them was the instigator of this incident, the temporary leader with an excited look on his face.
Even though he was barely an official high-level official before, this was the first time for the interim leader to see so many Avengers. Especially when he thought that these Avengers were all gathered because of him, a surge of emotion emerged in the interim leader's heart. A sense of accomplishment.
Unlike the interim leader, the members of the official organization were looking at the Avengers with vigilance. Although they breathed a sigh of relief after not seeing the figures of Saiyans and Superman, when they saw Revenge After so many members of the Alliance came over, they still remained fully vigilant.
These official organizations know that even without Robert and Clark, the Avengers' strength is definitely top-notch among official organizations. However, the official organizations are still confident that as long as they join forces, they can cope with the situation without Robert. With the Avengers assisted by Clark, there is still no problem!
"Tony..." When everyone arrived, the interim leader was about to say a few words to show his presence, but as soon as he opened his mouth, he was directly interrupted by Steve.
"The interim leader said before that he was worried about being attacked and killed by extraordinary people, and wanted the Avengers to protect him personally. After our Avengers heard about it, we quickly gave a reply..." Steve looked at the interim leader calmly. He spoke.
"It is impossible for the Avengers to be bodyguards. The Avengers' tasks are far more arduous than you think. We need to deal with extraordinary events that occur at any time. For the Avengers, in extraordinary events Protecting the people is far more important than protecting the leader! Therefore, America is made up of every citizen!”
If someone else had said this, then the interim leader would definitely have to fight back. Even people from other official organizations would refute this. How can the lives of some people be compared with the leader? Even if the leader is a puppet, it doesn't matter. The puppet is America's international face!
But it is a pity that the person who said these words was Steve, who has survived from the Second World War to the present. He is the perfect embodiment of the national image of the entire America propaganda structure, and the most suitable existence. When he said such things, they really couldn't refute him directly.
"Captain, of course we know the importance of the people, but if something happens to America's leader all the time, it will not be a good thing for the entire country. Captain, you should be very clear about many of the repeated national policies and orders... ..." At this moment, Nick Fury looked at Steve and said.
"Furthermore, since the Avengers don't have the ability to free their hands, let the organizations that have the ability to free their hands do it. We at SHIELD can also handle many extraordinary events. We can also send people as bodyguards to protect Mr. Leader. But when the time comes, will the Avengers’ law enforcement and handling of extraordinary events need to be discussed?”
Originally, SHIELD became an official agency and should be responsible for handling extraordinary events. However, extraordinary events are basically handled by the Avengers, not to mention that SHIELD cannot compete with the Avengers. It is said that this power has been granted to the Avengers, and SHIELD has no way to get involved, so now Nick Fury uses this as an entry point to force the Avengers to make a decision.
"It's just you? Nick Fury, have you forgotten, who saved the lives of you members of the official organization on Liberty Island before? Who was unable to fight back in the face of the massacre by those orcs? "Tony Stark sneered and looked at Nick Fury and said disdainfully.
"Didn't I say that since the emergence of extraordinary events, how many times have you, the official organizations, been involved in extraordinary events? Have you completely solved another extraordinary event? You are an expert in fighting for power, but you are all amateurs when it comes to fighting, right?"
"Whether you are an expert or not is not up to you, Tony Stark." Nick Fury shook his head slowly and said without giving in, "You Avengers are unwilling to protect the leader for the stability of the entire America. We SHIELD are willing to help you do it. Is it wrong for us SHIELD?"
"Who said we are not going to protect the leader? We just said that the Avengers are busy, but we also have other means to protect the leader, and they are definitely much more powerful than you small fish!" Tony Stark sneered and said, "After saying so much, let's see the truth with our hands! Let me see what kind of means you official agencies that have never dared to take action have hidden, and whether you dare to use them this time..."
"You are right. In order to ensure the safety of the leader, we naturally have to verify whether the powerful means you Avengers say are really that powerful!" Nick Fury laughed when he heard this, and said calmly.
"However, since the Avengers have agreed not to take action, don't regret it when the time comes. And why didn't I see the powerful methods of your Avengers?"
"Buzz!" As Nick Fury finished speaking, a set of mecha appeared in front of everyone, which made Nick Fury stunned for a moment.
"Hahaha! Tony Stark, is this the powerful method you mentioned? I remember that you said you would never share the technology of the mecha before, so why are you so confident to send the mecha out now?" But soon, Nick Fury laughed and said sarcastically to Tony Stark.
"To be honest, it's just that you Avengers are too selfish. If you had handed over the mecha to share with major official agencies, if you Avengers were willing to make your abilities public for everyone to study, so many extraordinary events would not have caused so many casualties..."
"Okay, I'll share this set of mecha with your SHIELD. Can you take out the space gem... oh, that is, the cosmic cube you mentioned, for us to study?" Facing Nick Fury's deliberate provocation and smearing of the Avengers, Tony Stark sneered and looked at Nick Fury and fought back.
"And the various extraordinary event experiments that SHIELD has studied before can also be shared. Didn't the previous head reveal a lot? I think SHIELD, with such a high level of awareness, should not be so selfish?" (End of this chapter)
