The era of American comics begins

Chapter 385 Choosing a Faction
"Is there anything you want to say, Tony?" Rogers asked, looking sideways at Tony.

It wasn't until the captain called his name that Tony Stark finally sat up straight on the sofa.He had two dark circles under his eyes, and his mental state was far from being sober since he entered the door. It looked like he hadn't closed his eyes for many days.

"There's nothing you don't know." Tony said lightly.

Yeah, what is there to say?He didn't come here today as an Avenger, he came here as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. with Secretary of State Ross.His silence itself was the answer and didn't need much explanation at all.

Of course Rogers understood this, before asking aloud.He looked directly into Tony's eyes, met his gaze for a long time, and said slowly: "So, when you decided to accept the position of Director of S.H.I.E.L.D., you already knew, right?"

Tony was silent for a moment.

"There was only one proposal at the time, and the bill hadn't been finalized. But the vote had passed, and the majority of the regime recognized the validity of the bill. So... yes." Tony said calmly, "I know."

Sam sat up straight. "Wait a minute. You don't mean to say that you support their bullshit theory?"

"I think you've asked this question several times, Sam." Clint sat on the chair with his hands on the back of the chair, "Stark has fully entered the role now, and I guess he will start fighting with us next." It's bureaucratic."

"Yes, I do support registration. But in advance, I never thought it was such a nonsense idea." Tony stood up and said irritably, "By the way, I took it on the premise of knowing the bill. S.H.I.E.L.D., I don't think there's anything wrong with that."

"I agree with Tony's point of view." Colonel Rhodes commented, "In fact, there is nothing wrong with accepting the registration, even if it is a wise choice for our current position."

As an air force colonel in the army, James Rhodes naturally has a natural sense of trust in the country and the government, and as a soldier himself, he doesn't have much resistance to the registration of superheroes. In fact, he himself and Tony are on good terms, so it is only natural to make such a choice.

Sam frowned: "Are you serious?"

"Of course it's serious. Secretary Ross has a Congressional Medal of Honor and 117 countries are about to sign it. Come on that's 117 countries, Sam! Don't act like I don't care"

"Then you know what will happen after you accept the registration? You and I will be like criminals under surveillance, being tracked every day and every moment of the day"

Vision, who sat quietly by the side, thought for a long time, and suddenly interrupted: "In fact, there are some actual data and simple calculations that can draw simple conclusions."

Everyone fell silent, turned their heads and decided to listen carefully to the opinion of this super intelligence.

"Eight years ago, Mr. Stark announced that he was Iron Man. Since then, the number of superpowers who have jumped into the public eye and announced their identities has soared rapidly." Vision said, "At the same time, there is a possibility of destroying the world. The number of sexual incidents is also rising proportionally."

"You mean to say it's our fault?" Rogers asked.

"I'm just saying that there is a part of causality." Vision continued calmly, "Our abilities will bring challenges, challenges will stimulate conflicts, and conflicts can often breed disasters."

That's all he said, but he didn't need to say any more to make his position clear enough.It's pretty clear that Vision is also on Tony's side, and he supports the registration bill.From a rational and logical analysis, perhaps compromise is indeed a wise choice for this team.

"I'll support it too." Spider-Man interrupted abruptly.

Even though he was just a middle school student, he roughly understood the significance of accepting registration.Peter also went through a fierce ideological struggle, weighing the pros and cons of accepting registration and insisting on resisting.But in the end he chose to stand on the side of support. He hasn't figured out the detailed reasons yet, but it may be because Mr. Stark also chose to support.

Besides, no one cared about his opinion anyway.

But unexpectedly, Tony walked up behind him specifically, and patted him on the shoulder: "Thank you, kid."

Steve Rogers looked at him, frowning.

If other comrades-in-arms may not know enough about Tony Stark, Rogers does.

When he first came into contact with him, he thought that Tony would be the kind of person he couldn't get used to, proud and arrogant, who didn't know what humility was, a playboy who was selfish and self-aware.

But as they get to know each other better, battle after battle, he begins to understand that Tony is much more than he appears to be.Beneath his superficial exterior lies a heart stronger and warmer than anyone else's.Tony Stark is indeed an extremely arrogant person, so arrogant that he wants to carry the weight of the entire world on his shoulders.He has spared no effort in his quest for greater strength and forging the strongest armor in the world, and he has given more than anyone could have imagined.

If Tony felt that the Superhero Registration Act was necessary, he had good reasons for it.As for whether he favored the passage of the bill for personal reasons?Rogers didn't doubt it for a second.

But even so, principles are principles, and he will not retreat when it comes to his position.

"Sorry, Tony, I can't accept it," he said. "The Superhero Registration Act is a shackle for us, for the Avengers, and for anyone who wants to use superpowers for good."

"Please, Captain, this time we are not facing the World Security Council, Hydra or S.H.I.E.L.D. Are you sure we are going to confront the United Nations?" Colonel Rhodes persuaded.

"But managers of the United Nations also have motivations, and motivations change from person to person," said the captain.

"Wait a minute, let's assume that if this bill is passed," Natasha reminded, "that is, all unregistered superpowers must be wanted? Then assuming we all accept the registration, the Avengers will be dispatched to deal with Those who don't accept registration, right?"

"Only in theory, yes." Tony said.

"Then what about the black knight?" Natasha crossed her arms, "My intuition tells me that he won't be the type of superpower who accepts registration honestly. So what are we going to do then? Go and arrest him too ?”

Although so far they still don't know who the black knight is, and they don't understand the motives of his every shot.But after many contacts between the two sides—especially after the other party made several rescue attempts, most of the Avengers have already regarded this unidentified guy as a comrade-in-arms who fought together.

Even if they received clear instructions, they didn't want to be enemies with each other.

"These details will be discussed after the registration bill." Tony frowned. "Now we will first discuss whether to sign it."

The Avengers have expressed their positions one after another. Half of them support Iron Man and half support Captain America. The debate is steadily becoming more and more intense.

Until Jarvis interrupted a discussion that would probably go on for another day without any results.

"Sorry to interrupt, sir," he said, "but there's word from S.H.I.E.L.D. that there's an emergency over New York Harbor. It might be a situation that calls for the Avengers."
