Chapter 789: Security Agreement A New Choice for Revenge
The second time I talked to the captain about working together, and this time, Tony's identity has changed dramatically. Pen %Fun %Pavilion www.biquge.info If you say that before he was just a teammate. If a special patriot comes to talk about cooperation, then now, he is talking about it as president. And this rightfully made the captain feel the pressure.
There are still a few superheroes who can ignore secular authority, and the captain is obviously not in the ranks of this minority. So, when Tony laid out the carriage and talked to him about the alliance again, he had to think carefully about what kind of answer he should give him.
He didn't want to get too a relationship with Tony, either as a friend or as a hard-line president. So he could only say to Tony very tactfully.
"Tony, I think we all have this desire to cooperate, but seriously, we still can't accept your previous thoughts."
"Can't accept that idea? Which idea? Knocking on the surface of the desk, Tony pouted and said to the captain impatiently. Until then, you think I can't control all of this and make the Avengers lose their so-called correctness. So now, now that I'm president, I can make the Avengers an organization that directly belongs to me. Even so, don't you want to accept it? β
"Tony, even you make mistakes. You have to admit it. Frowning, the captain still expressed his opposition. It's good to keep the Avengers independent, we can really fight crime, and we can even spy on the government in one way or another, so that it doesn't have to be replaced by someone else in that way. It's a good thing for both sides, and if you think far enough, you should be able to see that. β
"Yes, I admit, you always have your reasons. But Captain, have you ever thought about it? How much trouble will this society cause to give you so-called freedom? β
"I don't think anyone has a better say than I am. Germany. New York and all those small cities, every time the Avengers are dispatched, I have to fill the bill for Shanghai. Do you know how much money I've spent on you? Let me tell you, four billion dollars is only compensation for the damage after the battle, economic compensation. As for casualties, even with more money, do you think there is any useful comfort to families who have lost loved ones and friends? β
"It's an expensive game, and right now, I can't play it with you. I don't want to use money to solve the problems you have committed. So, as President, I have to give you my final notice. β
With that, Tony pulled out a document from under his desk and threw it in front of the captain.
"Cooperate, accept those conditions that came before me. Alternatively, you can opt out. But at the price, you must join the alliance against Hydra, and you must sign a special security agreement with the United States. β
"Security protocols, what security protocols?"
Without having time to read the content of the agreement in his hand, the captain directly held down the document and asked Tony directly. Looking at his performance, Tony slowly lit a cigar before explaining.
"The so-called security protocol is actually an adaptation of the superhero registration bill left over from the previous government. The conditions are not as harsh as they used to be, but there is one thing that you must follow. If you choose not to cooperate, then you must accept the terms of the agreement. According to the agreement, the Avengers' actions must be reported in advance. The timing of the dispatch, the purpose of the dispatch, and even whether the dispatch is permitted need to be approved by the government department. If you act without the consent of the government, then everything you have done will be considered a crime. Can you understand if I explain it this way? β
"Tony, you can't do that!"
After listening to the general idea, the captain immediately shouted at Tony. Obviously, he was completely unacceptable to the content of this agreement. In the face of Tony's tough attitude, he can only hope that he will fight with his own reasoning to change his mind.
"Have you forgotten? The superhero registration bill was originally a conspiracy of Hydra. If you continue this kind of thing, isn't it equivalent to letting the Hydra's plot succeed? β
"Conspiracy? That's how you see it? Hearing the captain's rebuttal, Tony's eyes, shrouded in a cloud of smoke, immediately revealed a bit of disdain. Should I call you naΓ―ve, or are you stupid? Steve, this kind of argument you justify just opposing for the sake of opposing makes me laugh. β
"Why do you think Hydra would want to come up with such a plan? That's right, they want to get the real information of the superheroes in order to threaten and control them. But other than that, they're more for stability. When the country is under their control, they must think about how to keep it in a stable and manageable state. And the registration bill is the most effective way for them to agree. β
"You can be hostile to the Hydra guys, but you can't underestimate them, there is a reason why they can cause such a big wave in the world, and even almost turn the world upside down. In terms of brains and strength, they are not bad at all. Therefore, this plan cannot be explained by a single conspiracy. β
"What the hell do you mean, Tony."
The captain, who felt that things were becoming more and more beyond his imagination, began to breed inexplicable irritability in his heart, and this suddenly made his tone worse. And Tony just explained with a smile.
"Just like those who commit crimes, so-called superheroes are actually saboteurs, and even if they don't mean to destroy, they will inevitably cause such facts in the process of carrying out so-called righteous acts. Their great power is itself a destabilizing factor, like a bomb. Therefore, controlling them and monitoring them is the most stable way to maintain law and order in this country. β
"So you're going to use this method to control us and put us under your noses for so-called surveillance?"
"Isn't that a matter of course? Now, I am the president of this country, and in order to maintain the stability of this country, shouldn't it be normal for me to make such a choice? β
"It's not normal at all!" Slamming the table and standing up, the captain's emotions finally and inevitably rioted. "What made you think this dangerous. Have you forgotten that you are also a superhero? Don't you know how your former teammates will react to these superheroes? You are provoking them and adding fuel to the fire of the situation in this country! β
"Hehe, ridiculous." Looking at the surprisingly angry captain, Tony's tone was unexpectedly calm. "You think this idea is dangerous? But you know what, when I sat in this position, I realized that the so-called superheroes are just as dangerous. You can ask how many of us, like us, have hands that are not stained with the blood of innocents. β
"If it had been before, I could have thought that I had ignored these innocent people who had been victimized because of me for the sake of justice, but now, as the president of this country, as the defender of all peoples, I can never ignore such things anymore. For the sake of America, superheroes must be monitored. I repeat, and if you don't want to be managed, then you have to accept the agreement. It's something that won't change anything. β
Tony's answer made the captain realize his powerlessness, not because of Tony's attitude. It's because he already has some thoughts that understand him at this moment. He knew why Tony had made such a decision, and he knew that Tony had done nothing wrong in this matter. His position forced him to make such a decision, after all, he is the president and the protector of hundreds of millions of people in this country.
So, after being silent for a long time, he finally nodded and said.
"I understand, I'll discuss this matter with everyone."
"And what is your reply?"
"I will accept your agreement, but I cannot guarantee that everyone else will accept it. You should know that I can't force them. β
"Very well, you just have to accept it. As for the others, I'll find other ways to solve this problem. β
Tony's answer made the captain feel like he was breathless, but he quickly suppressed the uncomfortable feeling, then stood up and said to Tony.
"If you don't have anything else to do, then I'll quit first."
"Wait, Captain. I have one more thing to discuss with you. β
Stopping the captain's movements, Tony put down the cigar in his hand and said to him.
"Now Bruce is working for me, and so is Spider. So, I'm worried about the manpower at your disposal, after all, there are already quite a few opponents in Cerberus, and you can't rule out that they will have more. So, you need to find a way to bring some new people on board. β
"I know, I'll figure it out."
"No, Captain. I mean, if you don't have a good candidate, I can introduce you to a few. β
It seems that he intends to re-establish a good relationship with the captain in this way, and Tony seems to be very enthusiastic about this matter. But the captain has his own ideas about this.
"No, I don't think I need to bother you. I should have the right person on my hands! (To be continued.) )
