Marvel: I became an ancestor by sacrificing offerings.

The moment he finished speaking, the entire room erupted in uproar!

No, it's not just about the scene.

Through the television signal, Peter's outrageous statement was like a bullet piercing the screen and striking the heart of everyone watching television across America.

In an instant, public opinion across the country exploded.

"Is he insane? He actually thinks he can get money out of our pockets to build defenses that allow those scum to survive?"

In a luxury penthouse apartment in Manhattan, New York, a financial tycoon who had just made a fortune through short selling was so enraged that he smashed his wine glass against the huge floor-to-ceiling window.

"Is this guy an idiot? I'd rather spend tens of millions of dollars to build a fully alloy safe house than spend money to help those poor bastards survive!"

In an ordinary family home in Queens, the head of the household slammed the remote control on the coffee table, causing the family photo frame on the low table to tilt.

"Fuck! Does that son of a bitch really know what he's talking about? We work ourselves to the bone every day, and the money we earn is barely enough to support our families."

So he wants to raise taxes with just one sentence? On what grounds?! Did he ever save me? He's the god of Brooklyn! What does this have to do with my Queens?!

His wife hesitated to speak; she had once been saved by the Ghost Spider, and therefore had a strong affinity for superheroes.

However... tax increases are indeed a deadly noose for families like theirs that are on the verge of collapse.

Similar situations have occurred in countless families.

The public was full of complaints about the proposed tax increase, while capitalists were even more eager for this masked monster that wanted to make them rich to die.

Social media was completely ignited, and the entire online world was flooded with the following terms:

"#The adjudicator should get out of New York#"

"#SayNoToTaxes#"

"#Superheroes? Money-making tools!"

The highly provocative headlines, coupled with screenshots of Peter's "Pay or die" statement on television, were frantically stirring up the public's sensitive nerves.

The "happy education" approach in the United States has inevitably led to a lack of critical thinking skills among the lower classes, making them even less capable of planning ahead.

All they know is that they might die if aliens come, but if the government raises taxes to build a defense organization, they'll definitely die next month!

So these guys, who can believe that drinking disinfectant can cure diseases with just a word from the president, can easily change their minds because of the overwhelming comments on the internet.

Within just over ten minutes, the government petition platform was overwhelmed and crashed.

Immediately afterwards, angry crowds spontaneously took to the streets and began to form large marches, chanting in unison to boycott the tax increases and to boycott the decision-makers!

Apart from Brooklyn, which remained relatively calm, the rest of the United States was almost completely engulfed by this wave of noise.

……

The White House, the Oval Office.

Looking at the overwhelming negative comments on the screen, and at the angry crowds spontaneously taking to the streets to protest on television programs.

Four-star general Mike was grinning so hard his mouth almost reached his ears. He slapped his thigh and nearly fell over from leaning back so much:

"Does that idiot really think he can do whatever he wants just because he has some power?"

"He's really put himself in the line of fire this time," a Defense Ministry official chimed in, a smug smile playing on his lips. "Just some politically clueless brat who actually thinks everyone will obey him?"

After a brief moment of excitement, everyone turned their attention to the president.

The meaning couldn't be clearer: it's time to introduce a "Registration Act"!

……

The White House, which has historically been incredibly slow to respond to overwhelming public opinion, has acted with unprecedented speed this time.

While angry crowds were loudly protesting in the streets against the tax increase and the decision-makers.

The giant screen in Times Square lit up, and the president's face appeared before the public as he began to recite his prepared remarks:

The overall content of the speech was very simple.

The government will fund the defense facilities, and will not impose mandatory taxes.

However, the prerequisite is that superheroes must pass a registration act to become registered heroes who are subject to 24-hour government oversight and are responsible for disclosing all information to the public.

This speech was like pouring a ladle of ice water into a pot of boiling oil.

The angry public instantly found an outlet, feeling that they had finally found a perfect solution to "solve the problem" without paying any money or bearing any cost.

"Yes! That's how it should be!"

"I support the registration bill! Why should those superpowered individuals be allowed to do whatever they want while wearing masks?"

"You want us to believe your 'crisis'? Fine, take off your mask first! Let us see who you really are!"

"If they don't register, I won't pay a single extra penny in taxes! Anyway, if the sky falls, these tall guys will hold it up!"

Driven by fear of tax increases and an irrepressible voyeuristic desire to uncover the true identities of superheroes, nearly 90 percent of the public unequivocally expressed their support for the Superhero Registration Act.

A massive storm, ignited by Peter himself and fueled by high-ranking government officials, has taken shape.

As the one who instigated this storm, Peter looked at the protesters outside the floor-to-ceiling windows without a trace of worry. Instead, he leisurely sipped his iced cola.

He even had a relaxed smile on his face.

It wasn't a bitter smile, nor a cold laugh.

Instead, it's a confident smile that says, "I anticipated your prediction."

Watching the experts on TV eloquently analyze how beneficial the "Registration Act" was to the public, Peter even wanted to present them with a banner that read, "Best Assist, Who Else But You?"

……

While Peter was leisurely sipping his iced cola, marveling at how "obedient and useful" these guys were, Tony and Captain America couldn't sit still any longer.

"Damn it, Peter, you're right, those politicians actually went to this extent!"

Captain America's expression was extremely complex.

He never imagined that after dedicating almost everything to this country, he would end up like this.

They work themselves to the bone to protect the people, only to have to endure the people trampling on their privacy at will?

In contrast, Captain America is disappointed with the government leadership.

Having long seen through the true colors of those politicians, Tony was simply curious about Peter's next move.

"Dude, the powder keg you've lit this time won't be extinguished so easily."

If things develop to a point where none of us can control them... what do you plan to do then?

Are we really supposed to split into two teams and fight like clowns in front of the camera?

"Of course it won't develop to that extent."

Peter's voice remained relaxed, his tone brimming with confidence that everything was under control:

"Remember the 'successor' I told you to prepare to resist from the very beginning? He will help us silence all dissenting voices!"
