Black Robe: How can Saiki Kusuo not be considered a superpowered individual?

Water Corporation.

"OK, I got it. Hey Tom, go and prepare the lights for the Starlight Welcome Party. Make sure it showcases the power of women in Starlight."

Ashley, who has gained considerable power from Madeline, is currently preparing a welcome party for the upcoming new members of the Seven.

The change of leadership within the Seven superheroes is significant for Vought.

Vought's business spans multiple sectors, with the superhero industry at its core in today's information age.

The Seven Superheroes is Vought International's most successful franchise.

Under Vought's meticulous packaging, these baby-like superhumans were transformed into one superhero after another.

The profits generated by each IP-related industry are staggering.

"I know, Assistant Ashley, I'm already working on it."

A staff member standing nearby said to Ashley with some annoyance.

If it were a typical welcome party, there would be no need for so many lights.

It was entirely Ashley's idea, given simultaneously by Madeline and Homelander, that led her to impulsively decide on a theme of "female empowerment."

"Did you invite Maeve? She should be free tomorrow."

After giving instructions to the staff, Ashley turned around and asked about Queen Maeve's schedule.

As is customary, whenever a new member joins the Superhero Seven, a few of the veteran members are invited to a welcome party to meet them.

"Madam, Queen Maeve says she's busy and tells you to ask the Deep Sea or the Locomotive."

Her assistant, head bowed, answered Ashley.

"NO! How could Maeve not have time? This is female power!"

Ashley frowned. The Seven, two female superheroes, exemplified female power.

What a perfect advertisement.

She imagined that if the welcome party for Starlight were organized according to her plan, Walter's traffic would definitely double!

"I'm sorry, ma'am, this is what Queen Maeve said. She also said... if you have any objections, you can go and discuss it with Homelander."

Her assistant added timidly.

"...Fine, I understand."

Ashley took a breath. Maeve was, after all, one of the most senior members of the Seven Superheroes, second only to Homelander.

Since we can't get her to come, then other members aren't out of the question.

"Locomotive, deep sea, invisible man, black... black is out of the question."

Ashley didn't include Homelander in the list of candidates, since the latter had already stated that he wouldn't be participating in Starlight's welcome party.

Xuanse is unable to speak, and if he were placed at this welcoming party filled with "female power," it would definitely be an awkward silence.

The locomotive has recently been embroiled in another controversy, and displaying it at a welcoming ceremony could easily cause unnecessary disturbances.

So, the Invisible Man and the Deep Sea are now just the two of them.

Ashley closed her eyes in pain. As Madeline's assistant, she had followed Madeline for so long and had come to understand the personalities of these superhumans.

They're all overgrown babies.

Maeve is suspected of having sexual orientation issues, Homelander is starved for love, Black is mute, and A-Train is suspected of being on drugs.

The Invisible Man is even more of a pervert; he likes to hide completely naked in toilets, regardless of whether it's a men's or women's toilet.

As for the Deep Sea... according to Ms. Madeline, it's just a useless creature that likes grass carp.

If she could, Ashley really wouldn't want to choose between the Deep Sea and the Invisible Man.

Choosing them will really impact the theme of "women's power".

"Miss?"

Seeing Ashley's pained expression, the assistant asked in confusion.

"I'm fine, nothing's wrong. Go and inform Deep Sea."

Ashley sighed and chose the Deep Sea over the Invisible Man.

"Okay, I'll go talk to Mr. Shenhai. He shouldn't have any unexpected events."

The assistant next to him nodded and took out his phone to communicate with Shenhai.

The Water Tower.

99floor.

A rest area in the deep sea.

"Come on! Timothy! You're the best! Good! Yes! That's it!"

The curtains were drawn tightly shut, and the only light in the spacious room was the colorful glow of the neon lights on the ceiling.

The smell of fish almost filled the entire room, and Shen Hai, wearing a green vest, lay on the bed.

His good friend, the octopus Timothy, and his girlfriend are currently putting on a symphony of the ocean for the deep sea.

Buzz——————

The phone that had been tossed onto the bedside table started vibrating.

"Shit, who's bothering me?"

Deep Sea's expression changed, its body went limp, and the two octopuses looked at Deep Sea in confusion.

"Oh, my darlings, I might have something to take care of, don't worry."

Shen Hai touched the two adorable octopuses, and without wiping his hands, he used his hands, still covered in octopus fluid, to answer the phone.

"Hey, this is the deep sea. How can I help you?"

The assistant had already prepared his words and addressed the deep sea:

"Deepsea, this is the PR department at Walter. Ms. Ashley is asking if you are available tomorrow. We would like to invite you to the welcome party for the newest members of the Seven Stars."

Shen Hai's expression froze for a moment. A welcome party for newcomers?

Participate by yourself?

OMG!

"Oh, dear lady, of course I'm available."

Deep Sea revealed a greasy smile and replied:

"I'd love to be a part of the welcome party for the newcomer, she's Starlight... OK, I'll be there as instructed."

After hanging up the phone, Shenhai unlocked his phone, opened Facebook, and searched for Xingguang's account.

"Wow, what a sweet girl."

His gaze fell on Starlight's sweet face, his eyes filled with desire.

"A welcome party? Those guys in the PR department only know those ordinary welcomes."

"Since you're a member of the Seven, let me, your senior, teach you what Walter is."

Deep Sea licked its lips.

"Oh! Timothy, it's a little itchy."

The icy sensation returned.

He looked at the Facebook profile of the person in his hand and started reading their posts.

"I've always aspired to be a superhero who fights evil and promotes good, like Homelander, Queen Maeve, and the Deep Sea. They are all my idols."

In the video, a blonde girl speaks sincerely in a sweet voice.

"Holi shit, my fans."

"WOW, this is so exciting!"

The fishy smell grew stronger, and the pheromones from Deep Sea spread throughout the room.

No one disturbed him. He, his two octopuses, and Starlight's homepage murmured to themselves under the neon lights.

"Shit, Deepsea is in heat again."

The invisible man, holding a button-like device, walked through the conference room and paused briefly at the entrance to the deep-sea lounge.

The strong fishy smell made him want to vomit.

"Fine, Hugh Campbell, okay, I'll find you."

The invisible man frowned and walked to the elevator.

He was going to ask the boy who had planted the listening device in the Seven's meeting room if he had any complaints about the superheroes.
