Maria Hill took off her clothes, leaving only her underwear, and then took out the bugs from various hidden corners of her body before putting them back on.

During the whole process, although he was still wearing underwear, his toned figure was still seen by Chris, which was a feast for his eyes.

"Is it worth it?" After Kasumi took away the bugging device that Maria had removed, and confirmed from the adjutant that there were no suspicious transmissions on the other party, Chris spoke.

"There's nothing worth it, it's just a duty!" Maria Hill cleaned herself up and said lightly.

"I know the real purpose of your coming here, in fact, you don't have to worry, they are all safe, although I don't deal with S.H.I.E.L.D., but it is not to the point of disregarding human life, when the time comes, I will naturally let them go." Chris nodded, then said half-leaning back on the couch.

"Thank you!" Hearing Chris's words, Maria was also relieved, although Chris and S.H.I.E.L.D. are hostile, and their personal lives can be said to be rotten, but in terms of personal reputation, they are recognized all over the world, and there has never been any bad deeds, so with Chris's words, then at least the lives of Sharon Carter and Barbara are guaranteed, and nothing else matters, as an agent, I still see it very openly in this regard...... Otherwise, they wouldn't be able to be agents, and for people like them, as long as they live, they are better than anything else" I just don't know when Mr. Osborne is talking about. ”

"Of course, it's no longer time for S.H.I.E.L.D. to be in charge of Nick Fury." Chris said an answer that surprised Maria Hill, because she originally thought that Chris would say that it was when S.H.I.E.L.D. was disbanded, after all, the current situation of S.H.I.E.L.D. can be said to be very dangerous, and if you are not careful, you will never recover.

But according to the meaning of Chris's words, it seems that he is sure that S.H.I.E.L.D. will be fine, and what is wrong is that the rights of Nick Fury, the director, will change? And outside of the words, it seems to be more aimed at Nick Fury, the director, rather than the entire S.H.I.E.L.D.?

If that's the case, does that mean that there is still a possibility of easing the relationship between Chris and S.H.I.E.L.D.? And the obstacle is just Nick Fury? If it is really necessary, is it possible to sacrifice Nick Fury to ease the relationship between the two sides, and even let S.H.I.E.L.D. have the support of the Osborne group?

…… This is not a joke, after all, the current Osborne Group is completely an oligarch that is not controlled by any party, not only has a variety of technologies that are ahead of the times, but also controls the livelihood of millions of people around the world, plus some vaguely revealed information suspected of being related to aliens and the power of the Osborne Group itself in the US Congress, so that no country or force dares to easily offend this behemoth.

Even if the US Government wants to target it, I am afraid that it will have to endure unbearable pain, and those people at the top level of the United States are not fools and will never do this.

Only an existence like S.H.I.E.L.D. would regard this uncontrolled force as a threat, but if the power of S.H.I.E.L.D. and Osborne's power can be combined...... Hill seems to think that it is possible to create a terrible being? Like that jumping Overwatch? Or have they not been able to catch any traces of the Black Claws until now?

If this goal can be achieved, then it doesn't seem to be an unacceptable thing to sacrifice a mere current director of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s director?

In fact, it is no wonder that Maria Hill thinks so, because unlike most of the high-ranking agents in S.H.I.E.L.D. who rely on Nick Fury or Alexander Pierce and others to promote, Maria Hill is able to occupy a place in S.H.I.E.L.D. support and power entirely because her rights come from a higher level of the Security Council......

That's right, in fact, in addition to being a Level 9 agent, Maria Hill is also a special agent sent by the Security Council to S.H.I.E.L.D., to help with the work of S.H.I.E.L.D., and also with the task of monitoring S.H.I.E.L.D....... This can be seen from the future Avengers incident, where she can bypass Nick Fury, the director, and report directly to the Security Council.

And both Nick Fury and Alexander Pierce are actually very clear about this, but Maria Hill has always been responsible for her work and basically does not cross the line, and Maria Hill also appreciates Nick Fury's style of acting, so the two sides have always gotten along relatively well.

But now under Nick Fury's control, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s situation is becoming more and more awkward and dangerous, and Maria Hill's position is actually not so stable.

Of course, this does not mean that Maria Hill's position is not firm, for example, in the future Avengers incident and Project Insight incident, Maria Hill is very firmly on the side of justice, and even sacrifices all her rights and interests for this.

It's just that in the current situation, between Osborne and Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D., there is no justice or injustice at all, and it is just a powerful relationship involved.

So between the interests of S.H.I.E.L.D., THE Security Council and Nick Fury's personal interests, it goes without saying which is more important, plus in the recent period, Nick Fury's actions have become more and more arbitrary, which has also made Maria Hill a little dissatisfied, so the balance in her heart has also begun to tilt more and more......

"It seems that Mr. Osborne has a deep prejudice against Director Fury? Was it because of the assassination in the first place? The events of that time have been settled, and they were not ordered by Director Fury, and I can guarantee that. But although the scales in her heart have tipped in her heart, Mariahiel will not immediately jump back...... What should be fought for is still to be fought for, but Chris's answer once again subverted her expectations.

"Prejudice? No, no, no, I don't have any preconceptions about him, and I even admire him! Chris replied with a pleasant sip of the coffee brought by Kasumi.

"Then why are you ......?"

Does Chris have a preconception about Nick Fury? Maybe a little, but not to the point where you live or die.

There are many disgraceful things about S.H.I.E.L.D.'s actions, but Chris's actions will only go as far as they can, but Chris's starting point is higher and he sees things from a far perspective.

The real contradiction between Chris and S.H.I.E.L.D. is that both sides have too strong desire to control, and it is impossible for anyone to succumb to anyone, not to mention that S.H.I.E.L.D. has long been corrupted by Hydra, which is why Chris has never wanted to be involved in S.H.I.E.L.D., but has constantly targeted each other.

Only by completely suppressing the strength of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Hydra of the whole body, can Chris be able to take advantage of the situation to reach into S.H.I.E.L.D., so as to control this powerful spy organization, anyway, even if Chris really secretly controls the power of the entire earth in the future, it is necessary to re-establish a similar organization, so why not use the existing system of Aegis directly? Clearly, the time has come.

As for the long-standing filthiness between him and S.H.I.E.L.D., it is not worth mentioning in the face of interests.

What do you mean by that? Children only talk about right and wrong, and adults only talk about the pros and cons.

And he can target Nick Fury, also because Nick Fury's prestige in S.H.I.E.L.D. is too high.

Chris wants to reach out against S.H.I.E.L.D., and Alexander and Nick Fury are stumbling blocks that must be removed.

It's very simple to deal with Alexander Pierce, as long as the other party is Hydra is revealed, the people who want him to die are definitely more than one army group, after all, under his control, over the years, Hydra agents, including the Winter Soldier, have not been less than assassinating various political enemies, plus Hydra itself has a bad reputation, he has no way to live at all.

But Nick Fury is different.

Don't look at Hydra's ability to infiltrate the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., I think Nick Fury's control over S.H.I.E.L.D. is weak, that's just because Nick Fury came to power too late, and Hydra's infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. started when S.H.I.E.L.D. was established.

Don't look at Nick Fury was pulled up by Alexander Pierce, but undoubtedly, this is also the most smelly move Alexander took, if it weren't for Nick Fury's coming to power, Hydra's control of S.H.I.E.L.D. would definitely be more thorough.

Well, you can't actually blame Alexander Pierce, after all, Nick Fury was just a good agent, not too politically skilled, and he was a black man...... Black people, although Western countries, including the United States, have been clamoring for equality and freedom, everyone knows what the situation is like in actual work and life.

But in this case, Nick Fury stared at the pressure stubbornly, relying on his ability and personal charm, he firmly held most of the power of S.H.I.E.L.D. firmly in his own hands, so that the Hydra forces led by Alexander Pierce, the old director, couldn't help but act cautiously.

Even the first thing they would do in the future was to eradicate Nick Fury, because without Nick Fury, their plan would never have succeeded...... And the results after the fact also proved it, as for Captain America...... Well, this unlucky kid is just a pawn in the game between the two sides, and without him, Nick Fury would have found someone else to do something similar, such as Tony Stark? Hulk? chose the American team, but he was the most suitable.

And Chris wants to take control of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Nick Fury is also a hurdle that can't be bypassed...... If the Hydra is eradicated in the light of light, with Nick Fury's methods, I am afraid that he will end up making clothes...... Let's see, whether it is the establishment of the Avengers in the future, the dissolution of S.H.I.E.L.D., or the new S.H.I.E.L.D. led by Phil Coulson in the future, has Nick Fury's influence on S.H.I.E.L.D. been weakened in the slightest?

This is the reason why Chris did everything possible to target S.H.I.E.L.D., targeted Nick Fury, raised Alice and Rumlow and others who were dissatisfied with Nick Fury and S.H.I.E.L.D., and tried every possible way to gain the support of Howard Stark and Peggy Carter, the two veterans of S.H.I.E.L.D., as well as Captain America's favor.

And now, there is another Maria Hill, the reason why he insists that the other party remove the bugging device is because he does not fall into any tricks, and the other is also to persuade Mariah Hill to change his position.

Of course, if you want to convince Maria Hill, you can't use the above reasons.

"I want to ask, what was the original purpose of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s existence?" Faced with Maria Hill's doubts, Chris asked.

"It is also the responsibility of the Security Council to deal with all kinds of special events that may threaten and to maintain international peace and security," Maria Hill replied without hesitation.

"So what do you think of what S.H.I.E.L.D. is doing right now?" Chris asked again.

“…… It's not too good. Maria Hill said with some embarrassment, in fact, if you really want to talk about it, in addition to the considerable contributions made by the founders back then, it has become more and more utilitarian over the years, which is an unavoidable fact for Maria Hill, and it is not something she can control, after all, she is just one person, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is full of complex conflicts of interest between various countries, and the power struggle is extremely complicated, and I have to admit that in this regard, Nick Fury's wrist, I don't know how much better than her, which is why she has always been extremely supportive of the other party's work, even if Nick Fury is becoming more and more assertive and controlling.

"If there is a chance now that S.H.I.E.L.D. can get better, but Nick Fury is the biggest obstacle, what would you do?" Chris asked.

"I don't understand what you mean," Maria Hill asked with a frown, finally hearing Chris's intention to interfere in the internal affairs of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Although she hopes that S.H.I.E.L.D. can reach a cooperation with Osben and get some support from the other party, it does not mean that she wants to see the other party meddle in the internal affairs of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"In the past, the main support of S.H.I.E.L.D. came from the United Nations Security Council, and you and I both know that according to the current international situation, whether the United Nations can continue to exist is a question, after all, the original permanent five, except for us, the United States, only the eastern powers can wrestle with the new five powers, as for the other three...... Hehe, it's a bit of a lift to say that it's hard to protect itself," Chris chuckled and said the biggest problem that S.H.I.E.L.D. is facing right now.

“…… Listen to the meaning of Mr. Osborne's words, do you have a solution? Mariahiel asked rhetorically, her face full of doubt.

"Look, this is the cooperation plan of the Osborne Group, with the largest consortium of companies in those countries, and Mr. President has signed it," Chris smiled and motioned for Kasumi to place a document in front of Maria Hill.

This thing is something he had prepared a long time ago, a big killing weapon against S.H.I.E.L.D.

And Maria Hill was even more surprised when she looked at the contents of this plan, because it not only represented the cooperation between the Osborne Group and those countries, but also the attitude of the US government...... In other words, although Akari is still the representative of the interests of the old world, in fact, it has already sold those allies in private?
