Black-robed Superman from a certain American comic book

Billy Butcher frowned and spoke to Hughie in a deep voice.

"F*ck!"

Hughie looked at the mess on the floor and helplessly pressed his head down.

A few minutes later, Hughie tidied up the house and drove away with Billy Butcher in the Deep Sea.

Meanwhile, the Baltimore mayor, who had used information about Compound V to blackmail Strideley, forcing Strideley to agree to a deal for $230 million instead of the originally planned $300 million offer, was currently flying in a private jet with his family through a cloudy sky.

After a bumpy ride, the mayor's son, who was looking at the autographed poster of Homelander with delight, suddenly looked out the window.

Outside the window, a man draped in the flag of the Free Nation was seen flying through the air.

"Dad, look! It's Patriot! Are you friends with him?!"

"The mayor's son," a seven- or eight-year-old boy shouted excitedly.

"Huh? What's he doing outside?"

The battle-hardened mayor sensed something was amiss and immediately hugged his son tightly.

"Zizzizi..."

Just as the mayor was wondering, Homelander's eyes lit up with a red light.

"wtf?"

The mayor, seeing the gleam in Homelander's eyes, hugged his son tightly and then lay down on the airplane floor.

The next second, two red lights flashed across the sky, cutting the flying plane in two.

Homelander stood in mid-air with his arms crossed over his chest. The next second, without even glancing at the plane he had destroyed, he flew towards the Vought Building.

A few minutes later...

A white figure, carrying two figures, one large and one small, flew out of the sea and only put them down on the nearest land.

"Hu! Hu! Hu!"

Baltimore Mayor Steve, who had worked hard for half his life and had lost all his hair, was panting heavily.

"F*ck! This is murder! Your Vought Corporation is committing murder!"

The mayor of Baltimore pointed at the white figure that had rescued him and roared.

"Listen to me! I'm the one who saved you and your shitty kid from that damn sea. Without me, you'd be dead already."

Upon hearing this, the white figure grabbed Steve by the neck and lifted him high into the air.

"Are you fucking calm now?"

The white figure roared at Steve.

"Mmm! Mmm! Mmm!"

Steve felt like he was about to run out of breath and kept nodding.

"very good."

The white figure watched Steve's reaction with satisfaction and placed him in front of it.

“Listen! Remember everything you saw today. Don’t tell anyone when you get back. Continue your cooperation with the Vought family as usual. Remember, don’t alert them. However, you can secretly post all the negative news about Homelander online. As for today’s events, wait for my signal. Then we’ll take revenge and completely destroy Homelander, who ruined you. Remember, your only enemies are Homelander and the Vought executives behind him. Understand?!”

The white figure pointed a finger at Steve's neck and roared.

"I...I understand."

Steve nodded repeatedly. Now that he had calmed down, he felt a wave of fear and his mind was filled with thoughts of revenge. Although he might not be able to destroy the Vought family, Homelander, who had almost killed him, had to pay the price. As for the newly promoted top Vought family member who had saved him, as long as they shared common interests and enemies, they were not 'good friends' who couldn't cooperate. In the adult world, the word "friend" was really cheap. Whether someone was a friend or not depended solely on whether they could bring enough benefits.

"very good……"

The white-clad figure nodded slightly, then turned around, seemingly about to leave.

"and many more……"

However, just as Steve was about to breathe a sigh of relief, the white figure suddenly turned around and came to Steve's child.

"What, what are you going to do?"

Steve shielded his child behind him, watching the white figure with suspicion.

"F*ck! Why are you still holding that idiot's poster?"

The white-clad figure cursed and snatched the autographed Homelander poster from Steve's child, tearing it to shreds in front of the child.

“Remember, when you are helpless, the one who saves you is not the Homelander with the ridiculous cape on his back, but me, the Free Man. Go home and frame this for me. Kneel down and worship it from time to time. It works better than worshipping God.”

The white-clad figure, grumbling, pulled out his poster from his waterproof bag, signed his name, and handed it to Steve's child.

"boom!"

This time, the white figure finally flew into the sky with a roar and did not return.

"Dad, can I frame this?"

After the white figure flew away, Little Steve, holding the poster and with stars in his eyes, excitedly looked at Big Steve and asked him a question.

For a seven or eight-year-old child, he was not afraid at all, but rather extremely excited. It seemed that being attacked by the Homelanders and then rescued by the Free Men was the most worthy topic of conversation he could boast about at school.

"sh*t!"

Steve looked at himself, now a drowning dog, and was furious. He didn't consider himself a good person, and now that the drowning dog was on the shore, some people were going to be in trouble.

At least judging from the fact that the Free Men immediately rescued them right after the Homelander attacked them, the Vought family is not a monolithic entity. As long as the enemy is not invincible, he is confident that he has the ability to completely crush them.

As Mayor Barr, Steve wasn't someone to be trifled with...

The next morning, news reports covered the attack on Steve's family and how Steve and his children were rescued.

"WTF?!"

Homelander's face turned ashen upon seeing the morning's news. He was filled with panic and resolved to eliminate Steve, this potential threat, completely.

"Homelanders!"

Just as Homelander turned pale and was about to cause trouble for Steve, Stride walked into the Seven's meeting room and stopped him.

“I know I messed up the Streeddy thing, but don’t worry, I’ll clean it up quickly.”

Homelander looked at Streiddy with a grim expression, and he kept making assurances.

"What are you saying?! You did a great job!"

Streeddy raised an eyebrow as he listened to Homelander's words.

"Ok?"

Homelander looked puzzled; he didn't understand what Streeddy meant.

“Steve just called me. He said he’s very grateful for your help yesterday, so he not only plans to sign the Nubian prince, but also plans to make you their city’s image ambassador for 500 million. You don’t need to do anything, just lend them your best photos and you can earn 500 million! 500 million a year! F*ck, I’ve never seen such expensive photos in my life.”

Strayty walked up to Homelander, kissed him on the left and then on the right, talking as she did so. Before Homelander could reply, she turned around and walked excitedly forward. When she reached the entrance of the Seven's lobby, she stopped, turned around, and looked back at Homelander one last time.

"Well done! You really did a great job this time! Homelander, I am proud of you!"

Strayty looked at Homelander and kept praising him. The gloom she felt from being threatened by Steve with Compound V and losing 70 million dollars was swept away by the unexpected 500 million dollars. Now she was just excited. After praising Homelander several times, she turned around excitedly and left with a happy gait.

"wtf!?"

In the end, the energetic Stride left Homelander bewildered alone in the Seven's meeting room.

"..."

Jupiter, silently brewing coffee in the conference room, lowered his head, smiling without saying a word. He was somewhat impatient to see the moment when everything would turn around, and to see the furious face of Homelander.

On the other side, a dark basement.

"Help me?! Someone help me?! Free Man? Homelander? Where are you? I'm so scared, this place is full of demons! Devils! And the despicable, terrifying, cruel islanders who killed dolphins! I'm so scared, I, I, I f*ck their whole family!"

Shen Hai, who was originally supposed to be on his way to rescue the dolphins on Huo Island, was locked in the basement, his mouth agape and cursing angrily. He felt like he had been forgotten by the world. He was having a really tough time. Now it wasn't just about rescuing the dolphins; the people who were supposed to be rescuing the dolphins were in dire need of being rescued.

"Can we just lock him up here?"

"Of course!"

"This guy is only really awesome at the aquarium; otherwise, he's not even as good as an average person."

"To be honest, I've never understood why he joined the Seven. Wouldn't it have been better for him to be an animal trainer at a zoo or aquarium?"

Outside the cage, three rough-looking men gazed at the deep sea and chatted idly.

So what do we plan to do with him?

Hughie looked at Billy Butcher beside him and French, who had just been tricked by Billy Butcher, and asked.

"That depends on whether he intends to cooperate with us or not."

"As long as he agrees to become our mole within the Seven Heroes, we can release him immediately. Really, if you can't stand it, you can go over and persuade him. You can walk up to the cage and say, 'Hey, Deep Sea, as long as you swear to work for us, we won't detonate the bomb we put in your **.'"

Billy Butcher looked at the struggling Deep Sea and smiled slightly. They did a great job today, actually capturing one of the Seven Superheroes.

Moreover, if nothing unexpected happens, they will soon have an inside man who can move freely within the Vought Corporation and possesses immense power. At that time, he will definitely be able to investigate the Vought family thoroughly, as well as his wife's affairs...

That seemingly virtuous but actually despicable beast in human clothing, that Chinese, will pay the price! A terrible price!

"Ok?"

Jupiter, having brewed the coffee, stared at the cup and paused slightly in surprise.

"Have I forgotten someone?"

Jupiter raised an eyebrow and fell into deep thought. A few seconds later, Jupiter slowly stretched and thought, "Oh well, things I don't remember are usually not important."

Chapter 41 Everyone should speak frankly.

noon……

A piece of news made Locomotive frown: Shockwave, the guy who had always wanted to get rid of him, had challenged him with the company's tacit approval, and was once again competing with him for the title of the world's fastest man.

"F*ck!"

Locomotive was furious because he knew that if Shockwave beat him and became the fastest man in the world, the company's next step would be to transfer all of his resources to Shockwave. Then Shockwave would naturally take his place as a member of the Seven Heroes, because the Seven Heroes never needed a second best; they only needed the best one. Anyone who wasn't the fastest would be eliminated.

"Perhaps only compound V can help me now."

After much deliberation, the locomotive realized that to keep his position, he couldn't think of any other way but to continue using Compound V, even though Compound V would put his body in a state of frenzy, making it difficult for him to control himself, and even with the precedent of smashing Hughie's girlfriend in a car crash...

In the following period, the entire Vought International was busy with the battle between the locomotive and the shockwave, as well as the promotion of Jupiter as the new superhero Freeman...
