Chapter 136 Chapter 188 Chapter 189 Fury: Carl's enemies are my friends
Wait a moment.

Suddenly, Ichiro Serizawa seemed to have thought of something and turned his head to look at Maria Hill, who was sitting not far away and attending the meeting on behalf of Nick Fury.

It was not difficult to tell from the calm expression on her face that she did not seem surprised by General Ross's remarks just now.

No wonder Nick Fury didn't attend in person this time. Could it be that this grandson already knew in advance that Godzilla had left Sokovia?

Nimabi, you bastard, you are deliberately trying to trick me and embarrass me in front of representatives from all over the world, right?

I was really out of my mind at that time, thinking of cooperating with S.H.I.E.L.D. to coerce Karl Mara!
At this time, Serizawa had no idea that his poor performance at the UN General Assembly had directly led to a significant decline in his prestige within the Imperial Organization.

Therefore, many people felt that he was unfit to continue leading the Monarch Organization, which gave Emma Russell the opportunity to take over.

And just as Serizawa Ichiro was secretly groaning in his heart.

Stek Pantecost, the head of the PPDC organization, breathed a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, he did not rush to stand up and express his opinion just now, otherwise he would probably be treated like a monkey and played with like the [Imperial Organization].

only……

The following situation was not optimistic for him either.

that's it.

This meeting with ulterior motives ended in an extremely absurd way.

But the undercurrents in private never stopped.

…………

……

[S.H.I.E.L.D. Headquarters].

"Fuck you... Ross, that bastard, turned out to be planning this."

Nick Fury was furious after receiving Maria Hill's report.

Because he had roughly guessed the content of the cooperation between General Ross and Carl.

Needless to say, this is definitely related to King Kong's paid service to countries around the world to eliminate Titan monster invasions.

General Ross's little plan was heard in Washington.

It is no wonder that the Ministry of Defense would stab other organizations in the back at such an important hearing and openly support Karl Mara and Sokovia.

The thought that soon Carl would gain both fame and fortune by helping other countries eliminate the Titan invasion made him happy.

Nick Fury was so jealous that he was unrecognizable. That feeling was even more painful than the death of his family.

At the same time, Carl's collusion with the Ministry of National Defense also made him feel an extremely serious sense of crisis.

Because in future confrontations with Carl, he can no longer use the banner of S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Security Council to wantonly "bully the weak"... Well, okay, although he has never succeeded before.

However, Nick Fury is powerless to do anything about it right now.

Due to the previous series of failures, S.H.I.E.L.D. has been severely restricted in terms of financial allocations and jurisdiction over certain special events.

Directly from the original "Special One" which was the only one in the market.

It has fallen into the tragic situation where it is now forced to compete with many organizations such as the [Imperial Organization] and [PPDC].

This made Nick Fury feel unprecedented humiliation and frustration.

Therefore, the focus of his next work had to shift from how to curb Carl's rise to how to ensure that the "wealth and power" of S.H.I.E.L.D. would not continue to be weakened by other organizations, which was a trivial matter.

This is also the reason why he received the news that Godzilla had left Sokovia before the hearing began, but did not inform Ichiro Serizawa.

Killing rabbits while robbing grass... Even if they fail to punish Carl as they wish, and ruin the reputation of the Monarch Organization, it will still be a great achievement for S.H.I.E.L.D.

At this time, a staff member came over and reported: "Director, Agent Romanoff just sent a message that he has found Eddie Brock's whereabouts."

"He was using a set of abandoned email accounts to log into several portals, including the official website of the Daily Bugle, via satellite signals.

He used the nickname "The Strongest Avenger" to post a large number of speeches online opposing Sokovia and the privatization of Titan monsters.

Ok?
interesting!
Nick Fury's eyes suddenly lit up, and his gloomy expression eased a lot.

Finally, he heard some good news that made him happy.

"Can you pinpoint his current IP address?"

"Not yet. He's very alert and never stays online for too long... But if he makes a mistake even once, we'll be able to pinpoint his whereabouts immediately!"

"Very good." Nick Fury nodded with satisfaction.

If Eddie Brock really is harboring an alien symbiote, then Nick Fury wouldn't mind recruiting this "thief" into S.H.I.E.L.D.

For nothing else.

Just because this guy dared to criticize Karl Mara, Nick Fury respected him as a man.

So no matter what evil things Eddie Brock did in the past, as long as he is Karl Mara's enemy, then we are friends!!

……

[10880 Port Malibu].

"Hi, Rod, long time no see."

Pepper Potts opened her arms and gave a warm hug to Colonel James Rhodes who came to visit unexpectedly.

Not only is he one of Tony Stark's few good friends, he also maintains a good personal relationship with her.

“Is this place going to be renovated again?”

James Rhodes glanced at the workers busying around in the villa and said jokingly with a smile:
"I guess Tony must have given you a lot of headaches with the specific details!"

"You've wronged him this time."

Pepper Potts put on a hostess's attitude and explained with a sweet smile, "Tony asked me to move in with him, so I have to make some proper renovations to this place."

"Of course... downstairs is still his private space. If you want to find him, just go there."

"Wow, congratulations to you two! It won't be long before I can enjoy your wedding candy, right?"

James Rhodes jokingly said this, then walked down the stairs to the workshop on the second basement floor. "Wow, Tony, isn't this the Titan monster Camazotz that 'blew up your equipment' earlier?"

James Rhodes pointed to the monster fighting a new type of Mark armor in the virtual battlefield before him and said jokingly:
"Let me guess, you've been staying indoors all this time just to develop a new set of armor that can deal with Titan monsters, right? But... isn't the size a bit too big this time!"

"Rod, your imagination is still as lacking as ever."

Tony Stark ignored his friend's teasing, but reached out and grabbed the holographic image of the new Mark armor close to him, then expanded his palm to magnify it several times.

Then he explained it with a little pride:

"The enemies we will face next are far more than just those Titan monsters. There are also Kaijumon from other worlds..."

"During the time you were on duty in the Middle East, I attended the first Hunter Summit held by the PPDC.
And I got a lot of inspiration there. I realized that Iron Man alone cannot defeat all enemies.

So, in order to better deal with various giant monsters, I decided to help the [PPDC Organization] build a multifunctional hunter mecha...

No, if you give me enough time, I can even help them build a giant steel army!"

James Rhodes looked at him suspiciously, "Tony, are you really going to help them build the Gundam?"

"why not?"

Tony Stark smiled mysteriously. "Using other people's money to test the loopholes and feasibility of my design, is there anything more cost-effective than this?"

Even though he is a billionaire, when faced with an investment project based on "hundreds of billions", he would never dare to try it with his own money.

Because if there is even a slight mistake, it is very likely that there will be no recovery.

Therefore, the safest approach at the moment is naturally to take the opportunity to try out the [PPDC] project.

After all the design plans have been polished and matured, consider whether you need to tailor a "Gundam" for yourself.

Otherwise, with the hundreds of thousands of dollars in hiring fees offered by [PPDC], could they possibly hire Tony Stark?
When James Rhodes heard this, a funny expression of "As expected of you" suddenly appeared on his face.

But then he told the real purpose of his visit.

"Tony, do you still remember the Ten Rings Gang?"

"They have reappeared, and in recent times, they have committed five atrocities in succession... I was previously sent to the Middle East with orders to search for their whereabouts."

"[Ten Rings Gang]?"

Tony Stark immediately stopped what he was doing, turned around, pointed at the flickering light of the Ark Reactor at his chest, and said:
"How could I possibly forget them... Those damn guys treated me so warmly for a long time, and thanks to them, I became Iron Man!"

Seeing this, James Rhodes eagerly asked, "Then you never bothered them again after that?"

"Of course."

Tony Stark shrugged, as if he had guessed the real purpose of his friend's visit, and then told him all the information he knew.

"But after we eliminated a group of KB members, the clues were cut off. Even Jarvis couldn't find any information related to them...

Rhode, if you want to find their whereabouts, then I can only tell you that this mysterious organization seems to be operating independently at the grassroots level."

"And the leaders of these grassroots organizations also have single-line connections with other organizations."

“No one knows where their startup capital comes from or who is giving them orders!”

At the end, he asked in confusion:
"But regarding this aspect of intelligence, shouldn't you, the military, know more and more clearly than a civilian like me?"

"Uh... usually that's the case."

James Rhodes showed an embarrassed look on his face, scratched his nose and explained:

"But this group of guys are somewhat of an exception. Although their combat capabilities aren't very good, their intelligence is incredibly accurate."

"Many times, it's as if they knew in advance when we would appear, so I've been disappointed the last few times."

"But...I'm sure you haven't been watching the news lately, Tony?"

Tony Stark nodded noncommittally upon hearing this. "I've been busy designing new armor lately. Has something else happened?"

"Yes."

James Rod said in a slightly serious tone, "Just a few days ago, the Ten Rings Gang hijacked the White House and the communication signals of the entire East Coast region through hacking technology.

Then their leader, Mandarin, burned Brigadier General Jellett to death in front of the president.”

"What?!"

Tony Stark obviously did not expect that the Ten Rings would dare to make such a bold move.

He then quickly instructed Jarvis to look up the video playback of that day.

When he saw Trevor's right hand transform into a huge crab-claw-like mouth full of fangs, and then directly burn Brigadier General Jerryt into a pool of boiling blood and flesh, his stomach suddenly churned and he almost vomited out all his breakfast this morning.

It's so fucking disgusting.

"Transformation, fire-breathing... Could it be that the old juggler injected himself with Compound Five?"

Tony Stark immediately thought of the Vought Group, which was known as the "cancer of the industry" among the top wealthy circles.

"We can't rule out this possibility. The White House has already ordered a secret investigation into the Vought Group."

James Rhodes asked seriously, "However, the Ten Rings Gang was able to easily hijack the White House's communications signal this time. I guess they must have mastered an extremely high level of technology to do this, right?"

"Perhaps there is a mole around the president."

Tony Stark is not a fool. He will never get involved in things that could get him into trouble at any time.

He immediately spread his hands, pretending to be helpless, and said:
"Although Jarvis can do that, it's still difficult to avoid being discovered...so I really can't help you with this matter."

At this moment, Jarvis's voice suddenly rang out, "Sir, Stek Pantecost, the head of the [PPDC organization], has requested an impromptu video conference with you."

"accept."

Tony Stark signaled James Rhodes with his eyes to "step aside", and then several figures formed by holographic images appeared in front of the two of them.

Among them are Dr. Reed Richards, Tony's technical research and development consultant, and Dr. Spa Sheffield, who first proposed the "Hunter Plan."

"Okay, now that everyone is here, I'll get straight to the point."

Stek Pantecost didn't waste any words and immediately recounted his observations and experiences at the Security Council hearing today in a concise and concise manner...
