Chapter 297 The World Belongs to Tiangong Society
Of course there was no way Bant would let Tony go out with him.
After all, King Sakaar is himself, and Bant is not going to make this matter public.
Besides, the Earth has been fine for a long time, and Tony doesn't need to do anything. Let him continue to serve his sentence on Sakaar.
Ultron almost destroyed the world, and it's not something he could just let go of in just a few days on Sakaar.
Let’s fight in the Sakaar Arena for a few years first.
on the earth.
Pepper quietly sorted out all of Tony's property, intending to use all his wealth to compensate for the losses caused by Ultron as Tony promised.
To this end, she sold all of Tony's mansion and luxury cars, and even sold his original armor at a low price.
But Stark Group did not disappear.
The Stark Group is a listed company, and Tony does not hold the majority of the shares. The most Pepper can do is sell Tony's shares.
However, at this point, Stark Group's stock price has fallen very low, and it will remain in a half-dead state for at least a long time to come.
So she sold and bought more with her own money, which she prepared for Tony in case he was really kicked out of the company.
However, although her salary is very high, she can only buy a little bit, which can be said to be not worth mentioning.
Bant has no interest in Stark Corporation's shares, but Harry Osborn is willing to pay for them.
Harry is now very sensitive to business. After realizing that he is not cut out for scientific research, he gave up. Anyway, his two buddies are smart people, so it doesn't matter if he is a little stupid.
The Stark Group's stock price has fallen because of Tony's incident, but the basic foundation is still there. Just the fees from the patents originally registered by Tony Stark will continue to make money in the future.
Now is the lowest price again, it is a good opportunity to buy.
As for Norman Osborn, he no longer cares about the wealth on paper.
that power!
This is exactly what he desires now.
Originally, he was the director of the . Bureau and had a great say in the world, but he was still under the pressure of the Security Council.
But now, because of what Bant said to Tony, many people have been considering what kind of relationship should be maintained between the Earth and the Celestial Association.
Isolation and exclusion as before obviously won’t work, the other party has made it very clear.
It is impossible that you usually act condescending and have bad intentions towards Tiangong, and in the end expect the other party to make selfless contributions.
Why?
This time, we helped to deal with Ultron out of consideration for the Earth branch security officer, Bant Parker. If the Earth cannot show a suitable attitude towards Tiangong, the other party can also refuse to cooperate.
The universe is so big that it does not lack an Earth as its jurisdiction.
Tiangong does not care about the earth, but the earth needs Tiangong’s protection. This is the most helpless thing.
It would be fine if everyone was not aware of the threats in the universe before.
However, the people on Earth who have faced the Ultron crisis, experienced the Hydra infiltration and the Battle of New York have long understood that they cannot cope with the crises from the universe relying on existing technology and local superheroes.
They need the protection of Tiangong!
"Needless to say, Norman, we must establish a good relationship with the Tiangong..."
During the Security Council meeting, several major Security Council members nodded, reaching a rare consensus.
At this stage, the earth does need the protection of the Tiangong Society. Even if the Tiangong Society branch is a bit like the US military stationed in Japan, there is nothing we can do.
"Norman, I remember that you had a very good relationship with Bant Parker, the security officer of the former Tiangong Branch? Can you maneuver between them and gain greater autonomy for the Earth?" one of them asked.
Now, no one dares to infiltrate the Tiangong Society. In their opinion, being able to obtain a certain degree of autonomy and rights is already an ideal result.
"Xiaoban is indeed my junior and has a certain say in the Tiangong Association. There is no need to worry about this. What's more, the Tiangong Association is not a colonial organization." The corners of Norman's mouth were harder to suppress than AK.
He had already discussed this with Bant and reached a consensus.
Should we give autonomy to every country on earth?
Of course!
To be honest, neither Bant nor Norman has the energy to deal with the mess between countries.
At that time, you can be peaceful and friendly with each other, or fight to the point of bloodshed, it doesn't matter what happens. The only difference is that in any extraordinary field, it is under the jurisdiction of the Tiangong Association, and everything else is up to you.
In this way, Tiangong can ignore the opinions of all countries when carrying out any mission on Earth, and no one has the right to interfere.
Norman will be promoted from the original director of the Hammer Bureau to the security officer of the Earth branch of the Tiangong Bureau, and will no longer have to obey the Security Council's nagging.
The members of the Tiangong Association will be selected from all over the world, as well as some personnel dispatched from the headquarters.
To be honest, this is much more reassuring.
If there are some of our own people among them, it doesn't sound like it is ruled by others.
Bant is not in the mood to rule the earth. He just plans to let the Tiangong Bureau replace the original functions of the . Bureau. The only difference is the issue of status.
The status of Tiangong Association is higher.
Norman never tires of fighting for power with politicians, but Bant no longer wants to get involved, which is why he gave the position of security officer of the Earth branch to Norman.
There is enough going on at the Sakaar headquarters.
Norman is now sitting in the Tiangong Society's space station, planning and deploying his next work.
“First of all, branches should be established in different continents and even countries.”
he thought.
Although today unions can control the world from space, if an emergency occurs or some strange and extraordinary phenomena occur, it may take longer to arrive if they are dispatched from the space station.
It would be better to establish branches in various places. In this way, different areas will be under the jurisdiction of different people, and his work will be easier.
"I remember that Xiaoban seemed to want to hollow out Mount Rushmore as a base. Why not put one of the bases in Mount Rushmore?" Norman thought.
"And then there are the members..."
Ordinary plumbers also need to have some talents like the agents of the . This is not difficult. Norman doesn't even need to look for them. The Security Council countries will send their talents over.
The more Earthlings there are within the Tiangong Association, the more autonomous the Earth will be.
And they also want to secretly insert some spies into the Tiangong Association.
That doesn't matter.
Anyway, the levels of those people won’t be too high, and they won’t be able to access many secrets. Besides... this world is ultimately based on force. So what even if the entire Tiangong branch is infiltrated by spies?
Don't they still have to work honestly?
It would be better to say that they are spies, because only spies will give 120% of their efforts to complete the task. How can real people who work not slack off? Didn’t you see that the real boss of Tiangong doesn’t want to take care of these trivial matters?
"In order to keep secrets, the spies will definitely not reveal their secrets to each other. Just let them suspect each other," thought Norman.
He didn't care who those spies worked for secretly. Once they arrived at the Tiangong Society, they had to work for the Tiangong Society.
"And then there's the superhero team."
He rubbed his chin in thought.
This is not difficult. The original Avengers were disbanded, and now they are just brought back for use. Anyway, the captain and the others don’t care whether they are called the Avengers or something else.
Thinking of this, he immediately took out his mobile phone and sent a group text message to Steve and other superheroes, asking them if they would like to come to Tiangong to work.
Bant is quite interested in reorganizing the superhero team.
He simply returned to Earth and prepared for this matter with Norman.
A few days later, at the door of Primus, a black van braked suddenly and stopped. Then, Steve opened the door and got out with the Winter Soldier and Falcon. In the driver's seat, Natasha rolled down the window and winked at Bant from a distance.
"Long time no see, Ben... No, should I call you Brother Ben now, otherwise it would be too disrespectful?" Steve made a joke as soon as he saw Bant. It was obvious that he was also a loyal viewer of Stark's live broadcast.
"If you don't mind, you can call me Madara-sama."
Bant rolled his eyes. At this time, Natasha had already parked the car and got out.
"Why isn't Agent Barton here?"
"He is preparing to retire and is enjoying the pastoral life." Natasha recently dyed her hair white, but Bant felt that it was not as beautiful as her original hair color.
Sure enough, things like white hair are more attractive in the two-dimensional world, but they are much worse in the three-dimensional world.
Regarding Hawkeye's plan to retire, Bant just nodded and didn't feel too sorry.
The other party is just an ordinary person, and it is indeed difficult for him to survive in the future when superheroes are everywhere. Besides, he has a wife and children, so there is really no harm in retiring early.
"I remember his wife was a former SHIELD agent? I'll give him a bigger pension when the time comes. Why don't you retire?"
"I can't rest." Natasha smiled.
She is no longer in . The SHIELD doesn't care whether you are a Russian or not. They have already filled up her pension.
But Natasha has not thought about retirement.
She is alone anyway, and if she really retires, she doesn’t know what she can do.
Bant took them into the company.
"Just us?" Steve asked.
"No, there are still Peter and the others." Bant shook his head. "There are not many people now."
They walked into the company. There was a conference room in the Primus Building, so it was not impossible to use it to gather these heroes. After all, they might not really join the Tiangong Association yet.
Steve and a few others followed Bant into the company and took the elevator all the way to the underground. As soon as they entered the door, they saw Peter reaching out to greet him.
"Hi, Captain." He was still wearing his Spider-suit.
"Hey, Spider-Man," Steve walked over and patted him on the shoulder, asking with concern, "Haven't you found Venom yet?"
"No..." Peter shook his head, his face full of sadness and worry.
Venom disappeared during the fight against Ultron.
Once Ultron used a sonic attack on Peter, forcing Venom to leave Peter's body, and since then, Venom seemed to have disappeared.
"It's been so long and he hasn't shown up," he said sadly.
Although Peter found Venom a bit annoying when he first met him, so much time has passed that he has long accepted Venom.
"Don't worry, he will be fine."
Captain America consoled him before turning his attention to some of the other people in the conference room.
Among them, Daredevil and Green Goblin were people he knew but he was not familiar with. Black Panther T'Challa was also here and greeted the two of them. In addition, Bant's girlfriend Felicia also had a seat.
I didn’t see the brother and sister who were with Ultron at the time, and I don’t know if they were dealt with because they betrayed the Tiangong Association.
Thinking of this, Steve decided to ask Bant to plead for them later.
He felt that the two children were only led astray by their hatred for Stark, and that they were not bad people by nature.
Then there was another person, whom he didn't know.
"This is William Baker, you can call him Sandman." Bant gave a brief introduction.
Steve immediately remembered that the villain who caused Peter and Venom to go berserk was Sandman, but he didn't expect Bant to let him join the Plumbers.
As for the Sandman, Bant certainly knew his experience.
This person was not particularly good, but not particularly bad either, so he was given a special opportunity to join the Tiangong Association and promised to help him cure his daughter's illness.
"Hello, Captain." William Baker was not good at speaking, so he fell silent after saying hello.
"That's all for now."
Bant said.
To be honest, the strength of this team is obviously a bit weak, and the strongest person among them is actually the original villain, Sandman.
But there was nothing they could do, Thor hadn't awakened yet, and Vision was gone, so after Tony was sent away, Wanda and Quicksilver decided to wander around the universe to avoid the limelight.
When everyone was present, Bant asked them to sit down and said:
"Let me make it clear first. Unlike when you were in the Avengers, joining the Tian Gong Association means you won't have much autonomy. All of your actions from now on will need to be approved by the Tian Gong Association. You can't act rashly without a mission."
Bant doesn't intend to cause trouble for himself. The Avengers are very independent, but Bant doesn't need that. He just needs these people to obey his orders.
"I'm fine." William Baker said this, and then sat down with a bitter look on his face. He tried hard to maintain his human appearance, but there were grains of sand falling out of his skin.
Steve frowned slightly, as if thinking.
In this way, superheroes become weapons in the hands of Tiangong. Is this a good thing?
He thought a lot, especially about SHIELD being infiltrated by Hydra.
But soon, he shook his head in self-mockery, thinking that his worries were unnecessary.
The world has already belonged to Tiangong, so why worry?
So he nodded: "I agree."
