Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.
Chapter 121 seems to have been resolved, but in reality, they've run out of options.
In the silence, Tony instinctively turned to look at Rhodes.
Rhodes remained silent, subconsciously shifting his gaze elsewhere.
He knew that the military's secret plot was unethical, but there's a saying: "Your position determines your perspective."
He's a Black man who has served his country for twenty years, enduring countless scornful looks and gossip to finally reach his current position. He simply can't risk his future for the rest of his life for the sake of brotherhood.
Noticing Rhodes's unnatural expression, Tony couldn't help but give a self-deprecating smile.
In the original story, he was poisoned by palladium and thought he didn't have much time left, so he had almost no choice when facing the military's oppression.
He had no choice but to reluctantly hand over the war machine that he had originally intended to give to Rhodes.
But now, the situation is completely different.
Tony has not yet shown any signs of palladium poisoning, and Ivan Vanko has not yet appeared before the military.
Therefore, after Peter exposed the military's conspiracy on the spot, Tony now feels that everyone in the military is a big liar.
"Dude, you're right, there really isn't much to miss here anymore."
Tony said this and prepared to turn and leave.
Seeing that Tony was really determined to leave, General Ross immediately became anxious and frantically winked at Rhodes beside him.
Rhodes felt extremely helpless, but he had no choice but to bite the bullet and step forward to act as a peacemaker.
But he had only taken one step forward when Tony raised his palm cannon and aimed it at him:
"Rhodes, don't push me to make things even worse."
Damn, what kind of nonsense is this?!
Even Rhodes was stunned.
Just as Rhodes was thinking, "I'm tired, let's destroy it," a high-tech fighter jet quietly landed in the sky.
The hatch opened.
A black man wearing an eye patch walked down with a young man in a tight-fitting bodysuit and a curvy, muscular butt.
It was Nick Fury, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D., and Steve Rogers, the "Captain America".
"Peter, calm down."
Perhaps because it had been too long since he had been in contact with Peter, Black Egg instinctively wanted to show off as soon as he stepped out of the fighter jet.
But before he could even put on an act, Peter's casual words drifted over:
"Look at this, yet another one who doesn't think about solving the problem when something goes wrong, but jumps out to claim credit after it's over."
As soon as Peter finished speaking, Black Lu Dan's black face immediately turned even darker.
Damn it, you really don't give me any face at all, do you?
Captain America, looking quite embarrassed, quickly stepped forward to try and speak up for the black man:
"Peter, you've misunderstood us. We came from Washington as soon as we received the news."
"The very first moment?" Peter scoffed, pointing out the flaw in the argument without holding back.
"Captain, do you remember? I specifically arranged for S.H.I.E.L.D. agents to protect my family. Do you think they wouldn't report something immediately if something happened here in New York?"
In addition, the F-22 you are in has a maximum speed of Mach 2.
Even considering that takeoff and landing issues prevent the flight from maintaining maximum speed throughout, it only takes twenty minutes to fly from Washington to New York.
"And this battle has been going on for at least an hour since I arrived... Are you sure you call that 'immediate support'?"
Captain America was rendered speechless by Peter's words... He could only stammer that he really hadn't lied.
"Captain, I believe in you," Peter first softened his tone, affirming Captain America's character, but then changed the subject, speaking with a pointed implication:
"You didn't study much and joined the army at a young age, so it's normal that you couldn't see through these problems at first."
"But what some people are really up to is hard to say."
"Captain, there's something I'm not sure if I should say."
Peter kept saying whether he should speak or not, but he didn't give anyone else a chance to speak at all:
"The country of Alicca today is completely different from the one you remember from sixty or seventy years ago."
At this point, Peter's gaze swept across the faces of Rod, Ross, and Black Egg in turn, before he let out another cold laugh:
"How can this country be governed well if these instigators are allowed to hold high positions?"
Peter's words were a classic example of striking at someone's spirit; the moment he finished speaking, everyone present changed their expressions.
General Ross and Black Egg both gritted their teeth at Peter.
If they weren't truly helpless against Peter, they would have loved to shoot him right now.
Captain America looked at Peter, then at the black man beside him, a conflicted expression on his face.
Because an inner voice told him that Peter's words... were not wrong.
Despite the various gazes from those around him, Peter remained calm and composed.
The awakening of Armament Haki made him understand many things in an instant.
He used to hold the Chinese people's unique mindset of "valuing harmony," and always thought of using gentler means to gradually develop things to the state he wanted to see.
But after awakening Armament Haki, or rather, realizing what he truly cared about, his thoughts completely changed.
Since he already possesses the power to easily crush everyone present, why bother with these hypocritical politicians' tactics of feigning weakness and engaging in a game of human nature?
We should learn from Brother Crow—"Difficult? Damn it, if it's difficult, then don't do it!" (Flips table)
Let these sons of bitches figure out who the real boss is first, then we can consider all that other messy stuff.
Seeing that no one dared to cause trouble again, they realized that no one else would dare to cause any more trouble.
Peter then turned to Gwen and Felicia and said:
"Let's go home and call Uncle Ben and Aunt May... Tony, we might need to borrow your private jet sometime, you shouldn't mind, right?"
Tony, who had already decided to stand by Peter's side, responded with a smile without hesitation:
"Of course, I have quite a few private jets in my hangar, you can pick any you like."
Peter smiled and nodded to Tony, then looked at Captain America and asked:
"Captain, we're giving you a chance. Will you come with us?"
"Huh?" The captain was taken aback, not expecting that he was involved in this.
His momentary lapse in concentration became the final straw that broke the camel's back.
Black Egg had finally gotten the captain as a valuable asset, so how could they just watch him leave?
Therefore, Hei Ludan was the first to break down. He finally abandoned his pride and, despite being extremely aggrieved, had to speak in an extremely humble tone:
"...Your Excellency, can we talk this out? We were indeed in the wrong today."
"But why has it come to the point where you need to leave Alika? You know, where else in this world can you really make your mark besides Alika?"
"You can discuss with us any kind of compensation you want. As long as you don't take your friends away from Alika, I promise we will try our best to meet your requirements."
