Marvel: Unlimited Possession Chapter 650: The unstoppable bill
"Your current situation is not very optimistic, Captain."
In the cafe, a beautiful blond hair concealed her original hair color. Natasha, disguised, looked at Captain America Steve in front of her, and lowered her voice with the coffee in her hand.
"Tony has decided to join the "Superhero Registration Act". As one of the executors of the entire Registration Act, you should be very clear that once the Registration Act is implemented, it will not only be Tony who will hunt you down, but also There is the entire federal government..."
Although, the new Twitter-loving president signed the Superhero Registration Act as his first executive order as soon as he took office.
But, because of the backlash from superheroes and grotesques.
Especially the opposition and lobbying of iconic heroes like Iron Man Tony Stark has made the implementation of the entire registration bill not smooth.
Even within the new government, there has been talk of announcing a delay in the implementation of the Superhero Registration Act, in order to avoid a violent conflict between the newly appointed federal government and the superheroes.
It is said that the person in the White House was very unhappy because of this incident.
He even posted fourteen tweets in one day expressing his dissatisfaction with Tony Stark and Congress.
“…”
Hearing what Natasha revealed, Steve lowered the cap on his head to cover his eyes, and the beard on his mouth concealed most of his face.
"Perhaps, you should talk to Tony, Captain."
Looking at Steve in front of her, Natasha said while observing the expression on his face.
"Tony wouldn't say no if you wanted to."
Under the peaked cap, Steve's eyes that were hidden by the shadows changed slightly, but soon turned into a firm look. He looked up at Natasha in front of him, shaking his head. Said: "Bucky is my friend, not to mention my attitude towards the "Superhero Registration Act" has been determined from beginning to end. Once subject to the registration act, it means that superheroes submit to the system of the federal government and become a right The abuse of weapons, the justice that superheroes have always upheld will become the justice in the mouth of the federal government, but do you think the justice of the federal government is the real justice?"
As a veteran of World War II, Steve knows the face of government better than anyone.
There may be good people in the federal government, but there are also a bunch of self-serving politicians, and the power of superheroes cannot be used by such a group of guys.
“…”
Steve's remarks obviously touched Natasha's inner thoughts.
As a former S.H.I.E.L.D. super agent, in a sense, she is more aware and understandable than Steve about the darkness hidden under the bright exterior of the Alliance government.
"...I used to think he was a self-serving arms dealer, but I was wrong, Tony Stark, I admit he was a very attractive man, if I were a woman, maybe I would really love him..."
On the news screen of the coffee shop, the new president with flowing blond hair is raising his hands and giving his speech to the major media in front of him with his usual exaggerated tone.
Spreading his hands and getting a few laughs in a way he thought humorous, the new president nodded smugly, then stepped sideways to give his seat, "Now, let's welcome Tony Starr. Gram, a superhero who makes the right decisions."
As the new president's voice fell, there was a dense shutter sound before the press conference.
Natasha and Steve in the cafe were also attracted by the news content on the TV, or the familiar man who appeared on the screen.
"Congratulations, Tony Stark, you are on the right track like never before."
Reached out and shook hands with Tony, and the new president reached out and patted him on the shoulder, whispering.
"Thank you, President."
He replied to the president with flowing hair in front of him.
Standing at the press conference, Tony's eyes swept across the camera lens that was eager to try, and he was silent for a while, and then he said: "I think, the specific situation, you already know, from now on, I will Tony Stark, Iron Man will serve as part of the federal government's Superhero Registration Act to help move the entire bill through..."
Reporter: "Can you tell me what made you suddenly change your mind, Mr. Tony Stark?"
Tony: "I didn't change any of my thoughts, I just suddenly realized that superheroes have power far beyond ordinary people. Since ordinary people need to choose when holding a gun, then as a superhero, they have extraordinary powers At the same time, naturally we also need due restraints, otherwise what is the difference between us and those super criminals who do evil?"
Reporter: "However, as far as I know, Mr. Tony Stark, not many superheroes agree with you, and some superheroes believe that the existence of the Superhero Registration Act is for civil liberties. Direct violation, they have the right to hide their identity."
Tony: "The Superhero Registration Act exists to ensure the safety of the people. America is a society ruled by law, and the purpose of superheroes is to protect the people. Therefore, joining the Registration Act is also a kind of protection for the people, and even It is a protection defined by law, so why deny it.”
Reporter: "So what if it's a member of the Avengers who opposes the existence of the Superhero Registration Act, like Captain America?"
Tony: "The Superhero Registration Act is a law that has been determined to be enforced. I welcome any superhero to join the registration, but if the registration is refused, then I can only regret to tell him that you are no longer a superhero A hero is a criminal."
Reporter: "Even Captain America?"
Tony: "Even Captain America."
His eyes fell on the camera lens, and Tony answered decisively.
“…”
Facing the news screen, Tony's answer.
In the cafe, Steve fell into a long silence.
With Tony's public announcement of the Superhero Registration Act on television, he knew that a breakup with the Avengers was imperative.
However, Tony's actions on TV did not stop because of this. He looked at the media in front of him and raised his hand to announce: "In fact, it's not just me who participated in the "Superhero Registration Act." We welcome the professor from the Grotesques, Charles."
As Tony's voice fell, Rogan pushed the wheelchair and Charles appeared in front of the media's camera.
The appearance of Charles immediately triggered a huge reaction on the scene, and the shutters were endless for a while.
The entire United States witnessed this live broadcast.
Reporter: "Mr. Charles, are you really able to join the Superhero Registration Act on behalf of the grotesque?"
Facing the reporter's question, Charles in the wheelchair slightly curled the corners of his mouth and said in a gentle tone: "I can't represent all the grotesques, but as the leader of the grotesque team, I will join the "Superhero Registration Act" "Prove to the people that the grotesque is not what the people fear, in fact, the grotesque are also human, just a little different..."
On the news screen, media reporters continue to question Charles.
However, Natasha and Steve in the cafe apparently have no intention of continuing to listen.
As the entire news story aired, they could have a hunch that the push for the Superhero Registration Act was unstoppable.
"Captain, have you really made up your mind?"
Looking up at Steve again, Natasha's face was more serious than ever.
"Superheroes are not pawns. If they sign up, are these superheroes still superheroes?"
Steve didn't directly answer Natasha's question, but his answer made his position clear.
"Yes."
Drinking the remaining coffee in her hand, Natasha finally took a deep look at Captain America in front of her.
Rise and make a final reminder with a voice only the two of them can hear.
"Be careful, Captain, I hope we don't have another chance to see you next time."
Natasha knows very well that when the two meet again, the sword will face each other.
……
"I joined the Illuminati to keep meeting?"
The Illuminati, inside a conclave.
Dr. Hank Pym expresses his displeasure with Tony.
"The focus of this meeting is to discuss the "Superhero Registration Act". The implementation of the registration bill is imperative, and it is expected that once the bill is officially implemented, there will be a large number of opposition. I Need the power of the Illuminati to help me..."
"You want me to join the federal government?"
Hearing Tony's proposal, Dr. Hank Pym shook his head and declined without thinking.
"It's your superhero thing, and I've been a superhero for a long time."
"This is something within your America, and I don't want to do it."
Black Panther T'Challa also expressed his position: "I came to New York only to find Chang Emir to keep, not to help you fight against the so-called superheroes."
"The identity of the Fantastic Four has always been an open secret, so the implementation of the Superhero Registration Act has no impact on us, but I agree with you that superheroes do need regulatory power, Once the power of superheroes is out of control, the harm caused is far greater than that of ordinary people."
Nodding, Mr. Fantastic Reed stated his support for the Superhero Registration Act.
As a researcher, he is biased towards the government's opinion.
Dr. Hank Pym and Black Panther refused to participate in the "Superhero Registration Act" during the Illuminati, while Mister Fantastic joined as a supporter of the Registration Act. Tony's face was neither happy nor sad. He turned his attention to the last member, Stephen Strange.
"I've never considered myself a superhero, and the world is not as safe as I think. Karma Taj has more things to do."
Raising an eyebrow, Doctor Strange Stephen Strange also indirectly expressed his refusal.
The existence of Kama Taj is longer than the federal government of the United States. Stephen Strange is naturally unwilling to accept the supervision of the federal government. What's more, there is a difference between magic and superheroes. They The enemies they fight against are also essentially different from superheroes.
……
"It just got worse."
Iron Man Tony's agreement to be a member of the Registration Act has undoubtedly made a situation that was already detrimental to superheroes a little more serious.
Jessica Jones covered her face with a hood and came to the secret base where the Defenders were located, relieved but also filled with fire.
"These people are just crazy."
"They're not crazy, they're just brainwashed by the federal government."
Although he could not see the appearance of the crowd, but through his super senses, Matt had a more intuitive sense of the populism of the people, which was almost fanatical.
"So, we're still going to have this situation, and once the Superhero Registration Act comes into effect, we're not going to be facing the current situation anymore."
"So, how are you going to sign up as a 'legitimate' superhero?"
Luke Cage couldn't help but speak when he heard Jessica Jones' words.
"I don't believe what those hypocritical politicians say."
A street hero, Luke Cage has an instinctive distrust of the federal government.
Not to mention that his power ~IndoMTL.com~ comes from secret government experiments in prisons.
Not only Luke Cage, but Matt also disapproves of the Superhero Registration Act. They were born in Hell's Kitchen, and in this sinful place, they are more aware of the sins hidden by the government.
If the federal government is really as righteous as it claims, why would it condone the existence of places like Hell's Kitchen, and how did the former Jin and build his own underworld empire here?
"So, what about you, Captain."
As he spoke, Matt turned his head and said to the shadow at the secret base.
"The power of superheroes does not belong to the federal government, but to us."
Holding the shield in his hand, Steve clearly stated his position as an opposition party. After Tony stated on the TV news that he had joined the registration bill faction, Steve gathered forces against the registration bill faction, And successfully found the Defenders League.
Meanwhile, at his side, Bucky the Winter Soldier and Sam the Falcon appear alongside him.
