Chapter 611: Discussion
H. I. E. L. D., Sky Space Carrier.
It had been twenty-four hours since Tony was taken away by Soul Society. The members of the Avengers scattered all over the world had also received Fury's emergency summons.
This was their agreement with Fury.
Normally, S. H. I. E. L. D. would not disturb the avenger. He would even take the initiative to help them hide their whereabouts or deal with some troublesome matters. He would give the Avenger members a certain degree of freedom.
However, the price corresponding to this was that once the Avenger members received an emergency call, no matter where they were or what they were doing, they had to unconditionally respond.
Bruce Banner, Hawkeye Barton, Black Widow Romanov, Steve Rogers, Spiderman Peter Parker, and the Punisher Frank Castle, the six people above were all sent to this space carrier by S. H. I. E. L. D.'s private plane.
The place used to receive the Avenger members was a secret conference room that was specially built. There were strong sound-proof materials on all four sides, and their resistance to attacks was also quite excellent.
The conference room was about a hundred square meters. A huge round table was placed in the middle, and nine seats that fit the curves of the human body were surrounded in turn. Behind them were the marks of the respective Avenger.
As the six people gradually sat down, the others looked at Peter strangely.
Among them, only Peter looked a little miserable. His whole body was wrapped in bandages, only his nose, eyes, and mouth were exposed. He was like a mummy that had just crawled out of the grave.
At this moment, Peter was sitting in a chair, looking around uneasily, as if he was looking for someone.
There was also Thunder God Thor. Although he was also one of the members of the avenger, it was a pity that he was in Asgard, and the Earth signal could not be transmitted, so he did not come to this gathering.
After everyone had gathered, Fury pushed open the door and walked in, sitting in the chair at a leisurely pace.
Fury crossed his hands in front of him and leaned back slightly on the back of the chair. His gaze swept past everyone's faces one by one, and then he slowly said, "This time, we have a very important matter. We need everyone to discuss whether it is worth it to vote."
They were not surprised that there was a very important thing to do.
However, it was a little surprising that everyone had to participate and discuss whether this matter was worth it.
Due to the incident with the space gemstone last time, Steve frowned and thought that it was Fury who wanted to court death again, so his tone was a little rushed and directly interrupted him, "Have you not learned your lesson from last time? Do you want to repeat the tragedy in New York?"
"No, it's different this time."
Fury shook his head and said, "I understand how you feel, Captain Rogers," he said, "but this matter has nothing to do with me. I hope you can patiently listen to me. Is that okay?"
Steve realized that he had made a wrong judgment. Perhaps things were not as he had thought. He gave Fury an apologetic look. "Sorry, I was too anxious. Please continue."
Fury was not angry. He maintained his calm tone and said slowly, "This is what happened. Yesterday, Tony Stark was arrested as a criminal by a captain of death god. He was taken to Soul Society and was ready to be convicted."
"Was he taken to Soul Society by a captain?"
"Eh. What is Soul Society?"
"What crime did he commit?"
When the people present heard this, they all had different reactions.
Natasha and Barton were informed of the news in advance, so they were very calm. On the other hand, Frank, Steve, and Peter were not so calm after hearing the news.
As for Dr. Banner's question, it was temporarily ignored by everyone.
"Wait, Iry, we are in a bit of a mess."
Steve raised his hand to signal everyone to stop talking. After clearing up their thoughts, he asked, "Can you tell us what crime that guy has committed to make Soul Society send a captain to personally come to the modern world to arrest him?"
As the leader of the team recognized by the Avengers, the words of Stever Rogers carried a lot of weight. The rest of them forced down their doubts and focused their eyes on the black brine egg, waiting for his answer.
In the battle in New York, everyone had personally witnessed the strength of the captain.
It was definitely an exaggeration to say that it could destroy the world, but it was not an exaggeration to say that it could destroy the city and destroy the country. They did not think that with Tony's little skill, he could make a captain level death god personally come to the modern world to arrest him, unless he had caused a terrible disaster.
"Frank, you should know the reason why we arrested him, right?" Fury propped up his chin with both hands and changed the topic to death god and Frank, who were the only ones who had been acknowledged by Soul Society.
"As for the reason, I have more or less guessed it."
Seeing that everyone was looking at him doubtfully, Frank did not have any intention of avoiding or hiding it. He nodded slightly and said, "In Soul Society, there is a law that prohibits mortals from obtaining and using death god's power through special means. The violators will be severely punished."
"Although I don't know the specific situation, the way Tony Stark gets death god's power is not very 'orthodox'."
"But according to normal circumstances, a criminal of his level should be dealt with by the chief officer death god first. In the end, there is no other way, so we should send the captain death god to interfere."
After Frank gave a brief introduction, everyone basically understood.
Peter shrank his neck and muttered in a low voice, "Why does it sound like Mr. Stark is a stowaway? He should have been under the control of the immigration bureau, but unfortunately, he met someone from the FBI?"
It had to be said that although this analogy was a bit flawed, it was not bad at all.
Natasha pursed her sexy red lips and smiled. "Peter is right. This is roughly what happened."
"That's right, he has at least made me understand what you are talking about." The usually simple and honest Dr. Banner could not help but laugh.
The serious atmosphere in the conference room was slightly diluted. Fere waited for everyone to calm down again. He gently knocked on the steel grinding conference table and said in a low voice, "You already know the general situation. Let us get to the point."
"The above news about Tony Stark being arrested was all provided by Lod Karl."
"It must not be difficult for everyone to guess that he deliberately leaked this information to us. On the surface, he wanted to use us to rescue Tony Stark, but we are not sure if there is a deeper purpose."
"So, let's vote."
There was a touch of mystery in the depths of Fury's eyes, which swept through everyone's faces one by one and said in a deep voice, "As a member of the Avengers, you have the right to choose whether you want to save Tony Stark, one of the other members of the league."
"I want to go!"
The moment his voice fell, Peter raised his hand, and his eyes under the bandage were unusually determined. "Mr. Stark saved me twice. No matter what he was caught for, I have to save him. This is the principle that I taught me!"
Fury looked at the others and added silently, "Let me make it clear in advance. Even if you choose not to save them, no one will blame you. After all, this is his own fault and he has to face such a powerful enemy. I will not force everyone."
Natasha and Barton raised their hands. They belonged to S. H. I. E. L. D. and would naturally participate in this mission.
The only people left were Frank, Steve, and Bernard.
"You say you won't force me, but every word is hinting that you are really something, Fory." Frank looked at the black soy egg speechlessly and raised his hand. "I don't have the habit of abandoning my comrades, and I am the only death god. I have to go from any angle."
Steve crossed his arms and leaned against the chair. "Like him, I will not abandon any comrades. Whether he is a playboy or Iron Man, we have fought side by side in New York, so I will definitely save him."
Now, there was only one person left.
Everyone's eyes were focused on Banner, waiting for the Hulk's answer.
"I agree to save Tony."
Banner rubbed his nose nervously and said awkwardly, "But can you tell me where Soul Society is first?"
