Marvel's I am MT
Chapter 23 Apollo Team
"They won't bother you anymore." Barton came to him and said, "But Victor, you have to hand over that symbiote. Although that thing is useful, its weaknesses are also obvious. You saw it when I packed it away. It can also corrode people’s will, and we still have to rely on ourselves.”
"Yes, sir." Victor wiped his tears.
"Go wash yourself off, you smell like shit." Patton pointed to the bathroom.
Victor entered the bathroom and Patton picked up the phone and called Howard.
"Howard, are you interested in studying that alien symbiote?"
"Of course, you have to help me transfer it to them later."
"Ha, I also think you can give them a break."
"Okay, it's such a happy decision."
A phone call pulled Howard in, and Barton let out a sigh of relief. He doesn't like to owe favors again and again, but since he has decided to do it, sometimes it has to be like this.
Patton then had a long conversation with Sabertooth Tiger.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, the fate of the tiger and wolf brothers is really tragic. From boyhood to adulthood, it is a complete cycle of running away, killing and running away again, always wandering. It is said to be a tiger and wolf, but in fact it is basically a lost dog.
They all want to change this situation, but they are constantly persecuted or exploited by careerists. As far as Barton knows, this situation will continue for a long time.
Patton left Sabretooth with him for the time being. He knew it was too early to form gangs, but he still felt compassion. If he could return to the army, he planned to recruit Sabre-tooth Tiger again, as well as Wolverine who didn't know where to go.
But not yet, as he hasn't wiped his own ass yet. But it won't be long before the United States will enter a state of total war, and then there will be an opportunity.
Comfortable days always pass quickly, so fast that Barton occasionally forgets what he is waiting for. At first, Barton occasionally watched Steve's ugly behavior on TV, but later he simply didn't care at all. It's so much fun to go fishing on the sea or play games with girls. It's better to get drunk than to watch clowns.
Until one day, he received a call from Phillips.
"General, how did you know I was here? Did Howard tell you? This guy has such a big mouth." Patton made a joke with the old general.
"You've never been out of my sight, but I doubt you can still fight. Report back to me right away, right now!"
"Why is it so urgent? My vacation hasn't come yet."
"The damn hotel doesn't even have a TV? The Japanese are attacking us!"
Pearl Harbor? Barton put down the phone and shouted: "Victor, what day is today?"
"It's December 12th, sir." Sabertooth Tiger agreed lazily. He finally remembered the date.
When Patton turned on the TV, he saw an overwhelming display of speeches and war mobilization, with the president's declaration of war repeatedly broadcast.
"Grind your claws, you'll need them soon."
The military in this world has a very strange system. They are consistent when dealing with the outside world. But internally, they also have fierce competition. Competing for merit, funding, projects, and the right to speak.
So Barton is not alone. He has received close attention since he emerged. With him as the center, a large number of people began to gather, and every brilliant victory he achieved became the capital of these people. Phillips is a representative figure, but there are others who did not have direct contact with Patton.
Patton was put on a long vacation. Although there was pressure from external factors, there was also pressure from within. His experiences during this period also hit the interest groups behind him. However, when the war came, they all realized that this was a rare opportunity.
When he returned to the base, Barton met his long-lost old friends. Surprisingly, General Shield was also here. The old general's physical condition took a turn for the worse, and he was actually already in a state of semi-retirement.
"General, why are you here?"
"Someone invited me here. They were afraid that you would still be angry." Sheard deliberately whispered to Barton, but his voice could be heard by everyone.
Barton smiled: "Of course I'm angry, but for your sake, I won't do it again!"
"Never again!" Shields agreed loudly, but it caused a fit of coughing.
Phillips is Patton's boss, and Shields is the wing on which he flies. The two actions of Apollo and Cold Arrow were actually decided by Sheard. It was this unconditional trust that gave Patton the space to shine and allowed his military rank to soar like a rocket.
But because of the incident with the saber-toothed tiger, Shields suffered a big blow, and the old man's body became weak. It is certain that he will retire from the position of Minister of Advanced Science, but the candidate for his successor has not yet been determined. Letting him appease Barton is the best way to make the best use of people.
"Three requirements."
"First, I want Howard to be fully responsible for my logistics."
"Second, I want Miss Carter to be solely responsible for my intelligence collection."
"Third, I want the autonomy to recruit players. These players may not be very clean. All relevant departments must give me the green light."
Patton spoke eloquently and confidently at the hearing. His first two were quite satisfactory, but the third one clearly stepped heavily on the red line.
"Major, are you referring to people like Victor? He is a felon who has caused a lot of damage!" an advisory group official questioned.
"Sir, don't use this kind of official talk among us. If you want to use me as an experiment, my reaction will be more violent than his! If resisting oppression becomes a crime, then what should we fight for!"
Of course, no one would tell the truth about the power of the world, and no one was willing to go against Barton at this time. Everyone here was an insider and a smart person, and they had understood Barton's strength.
"Gentlemen, we have to note that Victor has been very obedient under Clint's supervision in the past few months. I think his uncontrolled judgment was wrong, but his previous methods were wrong." The atmosphere was a little tense, Phillips Make things right immediately.
The leaders looked at each other and then nodded one after another.
"We can pass your request, but what guarantee can you give us, Major?" said a senior advisor.
"I will bring you victory! Just like my last name." Patton stood up, straightened his tie, saluted them with a military salute, and then left the venue.
Barton led eight members, including Sabretooth and the repaired Skyfire, to form Team Apollo. In the nearly six months since then, as many as 58 combat missions have been completed.
They can be found all over the world in Australian deserts, Nordic ice sheets, and Southeast Asian islands. This series of devastating blows made Patton truly a nightmare for several Axis powers.
