Chapter 366: Infinite Energy Fishing Technique
"Tony, some things aren't as simple as you think. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info" to Tony's angry sarcasm, Nick. Fury's eyes widened as he had left. Try to make your expression look as solemn as possible.
But Tony didn't buy his account.
"It's not easy, I don't really know if there's anything that's not easy for me. One-eyed dragon, don't think that you can do whatever you want if you have the slightest relationship with my father, if you move a finger of Pepe, I will definitely let you know what it feels like to regret it! ”
This kind of arrogance, and the attitude of not taking himself in the slightest, makes Nick. Fury was very uncomfortable, but he thought about his purpose and Stark's special status. He could only endure Tony's attitude.
Of course, tolerating does not mean conniving, and the dignified director of S.H.I.E.L.D. is not allowed to be threatened at will.
"I never knew what regret was like, Tony! And believe me, you don't have the power to make me regret it. ”
He paused, then continued.
"Rest assured, we have not done anything offensive to Miss Potts, and our protection has been done in secret, and it is impossible for her to find out. As for whether she needs our protection or not, let's wait until you read this information. ”
Nick. Fury said and put the pre-prepared information in front of Tony.
"This is a report from Morocco that the guy who attacked you was rescued, and when he was rescued, the entire prison inmates, prison guards, and escort policemen were slaughtered. Even the prison itself was washed by artillery fire. Do you think that if I don't send someone to protect the important people around you, you can be sure that you can protect them? ”
There is something realistic about this question, and even Tony's pride does not guarantee that he can be 100% protected. And most importantly, he had no idea of taking risks with Pepe at all. Even if it was just a small possibility, he didn't want Pepe to be hurt in any way because of his negligence.
So when Nick. When Fury said this, the fire in his heart immediately went out. And at this time, it means that he can speak well.
"Well, you guys have a point. But Miss Northman, there is nothing negotiable about your dismissal. ”
Natasha shrugged dryly at this question. showed a completely indifferent opinion. She lurked beside Pepe at the behest of Director Fury, and also at his orders to reveal her identity. So, whether she goes or stays next, she doesn't have to worry about herself, because Nick. Fury will arrange everything for her.
"Tony, I didn't ask Natasha to help me find you so you knew who she was and fire her. I have more important things that I need your help with. ”
Intercepting Tony's words, Nick directly explained his intentions. And it also means that he keeps Natasha behind him.
"I knew that people like you didn't come to me to catch up with me. Say it, what's the matter! ”
Perhaps considering the invisible threat posed by the guy who had always wanted his own life, Tony didn't force it in this matter. So he acquiesced to Nick. Fury's behavior continued along with his topic.
"Before I explain my intentions, I would like to ask a question. Howard, what your father left you. Did you find it? ”
"You mean that?"
Tapping on his chest, a large triangular pendant like a necklace shines through his shirt, radiating a sci-fi-inspired blue light. And look at this thing, Nick. Fury's pupils immediately shrank sharply.
What Howard studied, he naturally knew exactly what he had lived for so long. The plan for unlimited energy was no secret among their group at all. Because they watched Howard salvage the Cosmic Cube from the sea, and then developed it for decades.
In this long process of research and development, they are not only developers, but also participants. It's just a pity that everything is in Howard's hands. Even after his death, these things did not fall on them, but were reborn by his son.
If it weren't for Tony's identity being so special, Nick. Fury will use all means to get the power of infinite energy from his hands no matter what. But now, he could only suppress the greed in his heart and said to Tony seriously.
"Good, Tony. You are worthy of Howard's son, and I believe that your father's spirit in heaven will be proud of you. ”
"Everybody will talk about these useless things. I guess you'd better be honest and tell me what you mean. You know, I'm busy. Glancing at his watch, Tony pouted. I only gave myself an hour of rest, and now I have twenty minutes left. So whatever you want to say, do it as soon as possible! ”
Nick, who has been with Howard for a long time. Fury knew it wasn't a joke, so he straightened his mind and said.
"Okay, Tony. Since you want to be direct, I'll be direct. I would like to invite you to join one of our special teams. ”
"I'm sorry, but I don't like working for other people. And even if I join you, will you be able to pay my salary? ”
"You have to pay the salary yourself, because I'm just a matchmaker. Once this special team has been formed, it is entirely up to you to take care of and manage it. We've got a little bit of information for you at most! ”
"Oh. I'm still a little interested, but if you don't have any hands on it, then what are you forming this team for? ”
"We're here for the next crisis, Tony. Stark. There are too many dangers hidden in this world, and countless guys hiding in the shadows are waiting to show their heads and stir up the wind and rain. The peace of this world was built with great difficulty by us, including your father. So we can't allow these evil guys to exist. And if we want to maintain the current peace, it is impossible to rely on our strength alone. So, Tony. We need your strength! ”
Nick. Fury's words gave Tony a little touch. And what touched him the most was this feeling of being needed. In his words, Tony is simply indispensable, you must be there. And for this tone, it has always been narcissistic detachment to express enjoyment.
"Okay, okay. Since you have invited you so sincerely, it is not impossible for me to accept it. But I have a word first, if the people in this team are not obedient, don't blame me for not giving you face. ”
Almost squinting at the words, Tony's expression was very intoxicated. Accustomed to sitting as the boss of the company, he has never experienced what it feels like to be the head of a group of people with special abilities. As soon as he thought of this kind of thing, he immediately came to his senses.
But Nick. Fury's reply clearly indicated that he was really overthinking this time.
"Tony, it's not up to us to be the boss or not. It's up to you to do it, and honestly, I don't think you have what it takes. ”
"Are you kidding me?" Tony never questioned himself, and he didn't like others to question him. So as soon as these words came out, he immediately blew his beard and glared at him to express his dissatisfaction.
"Agent Coulson, you should know. A few weeks ago he discovered the sleeping Captain America from a glacier in the Arctic. Rogers. As your father's former comrade-in-arms, a hero who ended World War II. He was also one of the people we invited. And when it comes to leadership, I think he's better suited than you. ”
"Hell, you don't count. And, what role do the antiques of the last century play now? ”
"Who knows, maybe it's a big effect?" Nick. Fury behaves innocently, innocently leaving Tony speechless. But since there was nothing to say, he was more straightforward.
"Then please forgive me for missing me, I won't play with you anymore!"
Grabbed the sandwich on the table and stuffed it all into his mouth. Tony just stood up and walked out the door.
Watching him leave, Nick. Fury didn't stop him, but half-twisted, put one of his arms on the back of the chair, and said to him with interest.
"Tony, are you really leaving? This kind of opportunity is rare! ”
"There will always be, won't it?"
"I think you can think about it a little more, and I don't know when the next time you want to get an invitation. Moreover, if you don't take advantage of the current time to get in, it is estimated that you will not even be able to get the identity of a patriarch. ”
"Don't bother you, Mr. One-Eyed Dragon. I don't think this little team of yours can muster the people you want. So, goodbye! He shook his hand and made a classical farewell etiquette. Tony's intentions are almost certain.
No one can stop him, and no one wants to stop him. He just pushed the door open and walked out easily.
And until he completely disappeared from sight, Nick. Fury didn't say a word more. However, his expression was not at all the chagrin after being rejected, but was full of a kind of confidence that he was sure to win.
This pretended to be sophisticated made Natasha on the side roll her eyes, and she asked puzzled.
"Sir, you're so aggressive about him. Won't it go wrong? ”
"You don't understand, Natasha. Tony, like his father, can't solve problems with people like them by asking alone. What is easy to get will not make them agree, and rejection from beginning to end will only disgust them, so the best way is to hang him like this, and he will take the bait himself. ”
"Well, you're sir. You have your say! Ordered a cup of coffee like a normal customer, Natasha asked. So what's next that I need help with? If anything, it's better to say it now. I don't want to risk being found out. ”
Although I would love to say that your identity has been exposed, it is useless to pretend. But at the thought of who doesn't have two quirks, Director Fury suppressed his own complaint.
"You go ahead with your work in the underdog. I've already found someone else to recruit the rest of the people. (To be continued.) )
