Chapter 71: Suspicion of Black Sauce Egg! There is something wrong with Roddy! Three months later! [Subscribe]
Trident Headquarters.
Nick Fury's former office.
"How is it? How many people are left?"
Standing in front of the French window, Fury seemed to be making his last ~reminiscence.
After today's events spread, SHIELD will definitely be disbanded-.
There is no need for an agent organization whose secrets are completely disclosed.
Similarly;
After knowing everything about SHIELD, countries around the world will not allow such an organization that was once completely infiltrated by Hydra to continue to exist.
So this time is probably the last time he will stand in this position and look at the scenery.
In the future, there will be no chance!
"There are probably more than 300 agents left at the headquarters."
Behind him, Barton gently wiped his bow and sat aside, saying silently.
"More than 300, there are only more than 300 left!"
Hearing this number, Fury couldn't help but look bitter.
The Trident headquarters used to have more than 6,000 agents stationed all year round!
And now;
There are only more than 300 left!
Fury didn't know how many agents who still had justice in their hearts died in the battle just now, but even if there were 300 or 400, it means that there are only 600 or 700 SHIELD agents who are not Hydra!
Compared with the number of 6,000 agents, it is only one tenth!
In the dignified Trident headquarters, 90% of the agents are Hydra.
I have to say;
This is really an extremely ironic thing.
Even the Trident headquarters is like this, Fury can no longer imagine the situation of other branches.
God knows how many of the SHIELD's hundreds of thousands of agents are truly loyal to SHIELD?
3,000?
Or 5,000?
Anyway, there won't be as many as 10,000!
Originally, Fury still had some doubts about his decision.
But after hearing this number, the last bit of doubt in his heart disappeared.
SHIELD... let it vanish with today's battle!
From now on;
he is only the director of S.W.O.R.D., not the director of SHIELD!
...
The office door opened.
Natasha, who had just returned, walked in from outside.
Steve and Hill were also with him.
As for Sam and Luke Cage?
They have already left.
After all, the battle is over, and they should have a good rest.
But their performance today has been recorded by those present, and they will have a seat in the future Avengers!
Of course;
Hill also gave the two a performance fee before leaving.
Not much.
Only 500,000 US dollars.
For the once powerful SHIELD, this is not even a drop in the bucket.
But now...
The landlord has no surplus food!
Even this money was transferred out before the secrets of SHIELD were made public.
Otherwise, they would not be able to take out even this little money.
However, for SHIELD, 500,000 may be just a small amount of money, but for Sam and Luke Cage, who have never had more than 50,000 in savings, this is already a huge sum of money.
So both of them are quite satisfied.
Of course!
What Sam wants more is the opportunity to fight side by side with the captain.
He is a soldier and a warrior.
He needs a battlefield!
Otherwise, he can only go to the veterans' nursing home to continue lecturing.
That is not the "battlefield" he wants.
"Send the people back?"
Seeing Natasha come back, Fury also turned around and said.
Natasha nodded and looked at Barton who was sitting next to her, with a hint of inquiry in her eyes.
"We only have 300 agents left."
Barton said.
Natasha suddenly realized that it was no wonder that she found Fury's expression strange as soon as she came in. He seemed very angry, but a little lonely.
"Sit down and talk, we will leave here soon and will never come back again."
Fury sat down first, and then asked everyone to sit down.
He will no longer be the director of SHIELD, so these people will no longer be his subordinates.
Of course!
The friendship they once had is still there.
I believe that if he needs help in the future, they will not refuse him.
Everyone sat down.
"What do you think about that Spider-Woman?"
Fury asked.
"She is very powerful, but she is still a child."
Steve said first.
"She seems to have a new skill, which I didn't see her use last time."
Barton said.
He had seen Spider-Woman in the battle against the lizard monster before, and the opponent was far from the strength shown today.
If she had such strength at the time, there would be no need for that "Superman" to take action.
"She is a kind girl, but she has some little secrets of her own."
Natasha said at last.
As for Hill, she did not express any opinion at all.
The nature of her work is different from that of Natasha and others, and Hill also knows that Fury's question just now did not mean for her to answer.
So she just listened and did not speak.
"Fury, what do you want to say?"
At this time, Steve couldn't help asking.
He is the kind of person who likes to be straightforward. He really can't adapt to people like Fury who like to beat around the bush.
Perhaps this is why he worked at SHIELD before, but his relationship with Fury became worse and worse?
The two people are not the kind of people who can get along well!
Fury glanced at Steve and said, "Barton, don't you think the ability she used today is familiar?"
Hearing this;
Barton thought about it and nodded.
"It does look a bit like the ability of Superman back then."
He said.
"Superman? The one who appeared in Liberty City last time?"
Steve asked.
Barton explained to him, and then Steve understood why Barton said that the abilities of the two people are very similar.
"I suspect that this Superman is the mysterious man who appeared in the sun before. This person is very powerful! And very dangerous!" Fury said: "And before, I asked Natasha to investigate this person and find his whereabouts, but there has been no clues."
"Until today!"
As he said, Fury also looked at Natasha.
"Have you found anything?"
He asked.
Natasha nodded and said with a serious expression: "I suspect someone."
"Who?"
Everyone in the office looked over.
"Rhodey, a rich second-generation, playboy."
Natasha said a name.
"Have you checked it?"
Fury asked again.
Natasha nodded, "I have checked it, there is no problem, but he is the most suspicious."
"Tell me what you think."
Natasha nodded and continued:
"This person is Spider-Woman's boyfriend. The two officially confirmed their relationship last night. Liberty City held a music festival last night, and Spider-Woman also had a show. This Rhodey confessed to her at the music festival, and then the two went back to Rhodey's residence together that night."
"Before this, Spider-Woman had never shown any ability similar to today, and she was very excited today. It was obviously the first time she had acquired this new ability."
"So I suspect that her acquisition of this new ability is related to Rhodey!"
"It is very likely that Rhodey gave her such an ability."
Natasha finished quickly.
But these are just her guesses.
