"Director Fury. What you mentioned last time, now we can talk about it. ”

Nick Fury stood at the door of the room and looked at him blankly for a few moments.

This is fairly new to him. As the Chief of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the king of agents, in most cases, he is the only one who suddenly appears on someone else's couch and startles someone else, and rarely the other way around. This situation reminded him of the first time he dealt with Michael, and he remembered Michael's original armor at that time, and remembered that he always appeared in his director's office without knowing it, bringing first-hand information about Hydra.

The former director of Fury couldn't help but sigh secretly, it was really a vicissitudes of life, thinking that he was still the majestic director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and this black knight was still a lone knight alone. Now that the situation has reversed, he Nick Fury is no longer at his peak, and his resources and manpower are stretched, while the Black Knight has now become the most powerful person on Earth, with a personal combat power that rivals that of the gods, and a military force that can throw any army on the planet off the eight main roads.

Oh, and to add, the current situation is that Nick Fury is trying to convince Michael to accept more power, and the question is only whether the other side is interested in it.

Fury walked into the room, walked around to his seat and sat down, looking at Michael on the couch through his desk, and couldn't help but feel that the situation was more similar to when they first met. It's just that at that time Michael was always wearing armor, and now he is in a suit and leather shoes.

Fury slowly poured himself a glass of water and shook the glass at the guest: "Have a drink?" ”

"I'll be exempt." Michael waved his hand and said no.

Fury took a sip of water and asked, "Since you are already here, does that mean that our interstellar diplomacy problem has been solved?" ”

"Sort of." Michael said, "The Skrulls will soon be withdrawn from the earth, and they will never come again." ”

"Are you sure?"

"One hundred percent."

Fury nodded, with a look of affirmation, and his expression was like "The person I fancy is really right".

"Then let's get straight to the point," Fury put down his glass, looked at him for a moment, and asked, "You said you wanted to talk, so you should have a conclusion in your mind?" ”

"Before I do that, I want to ask a little bit, do you really have no other candidates, or do you just want me to sit in this position?" Michael asked rhetorically.

Nick Fury stared at him for a moment.

"The nature of the position of Director S.H.I.E.L.D. is unique and critical, and not everyone is up to the task—you should understand that best. If someone had been able to take my place, the council would have removed me from office long ago. It's because they couldn't find the right person that I stayed in this position for so long. Frey paused, adding, "And I do want you to sit in this position, because there is no one, perhaps even me, who is more suitable than you." ”

"I don't think so." Michael shook his head. He felt that Fury only made this judgment because he didn't know himself. After all, Nick Fury had just discovered the true identity of the Black Knight, and all he saw was what the Black Knight and the Heavenly Sword Bureau had done, but in fact, he didn't know much about himself.

"Phil Coulson is good." Michael said, "Isn't he the one who took over the Aegis mess you left behind, and I think his team is doing a good job." ”

"Except that they messed up almost every task that followed." Fury leaned back in his chair, "Coulson is a good agent and has some leadership skills. But he is better suited to command operations than to be in charge of the overall situation. Having Agent Coulson succeed him is nothing more than a stopgap measure, and if he leads it, sooner or later things will end in tragedy. ”

Michael was noncommittal. He just said it casually, and he really didn't think Agent Coulson was an ideal candidate. In the American drama "S.H.I.E.L.D.", after Fury's departure, Aegis deteriorated under Coulson's leadership, and the end of the story is also full of tragedy for most of the remaining followers of A.S.E.l.D.

In this sense, Nick Fury's prediction is surprisingly accurate.

"And what about Mary Hill? Your adjutant? She looks like a pretty capable woman. ”

"Hill is, and I admire her talent. But she's only fit to be an adjutant, the pressure to stand at the top is a bit too much for her, and her personality isn't fit to be that person. Also, as you can see, choosing Stark is even more of a disaster. "So when I was asked to recommend the best person for the next director, I did think it through." That's why I'm sitting here right now, and I'm sure you're saying, yes, no one else. ”

His words were so categorical that he almost said "S.H.I.E.L.D. has to be you".

Michael pondered for a long time, and then said slowly: "Well, if you insist on thinking so, then I can indeed agree to be in charge of the affairs of this new S.H.I.E.L.D. But as you may already know, I may be a little lacking in skills. I already have a global organization to take care of, and we're still trying to expand into space.

I also need a lot of personal time every day, after all, you know that I am not a strange person, I am just a mortal who uses knowledge to fight. And my armor doesn't upgrade itself, and magic also needs to be practiced consistently.

On top of that, I've been trying to enrich my personal life outside of the Black Knight lately, and that's what it takes to ...... A certain amount of energy. ”

Fury frowned: "So, you still want to resign from this position?" ”

"I'm just saying that I can't just become the head of S.H.I.E.L.D. and go to Japan in person, but since you've said that, I don't intend to completely ignore it." Michael crossed his fingers and said, "In the future, I will allocate the resources of the Heavenly Sword and a certain amount of energy to deal with the affairs of Aegis, but as I said before, I don't like to stand in the spotlight and be the hero of all eyes." I can't be that person – I know that better than anyone else.

But you're saying you're having some trouble with the selection of the director? Then I'll help you solve this problem. I'll take care of the director's business, you just need to keep this referral spot. ”

Fury raised an eyebrow and looked at him suspiciously.

For some reason, this recommendation always gave him an unreliable intuition......
