The Throne of Heroes

Chapter 44 Nick's Plan

"Sir, although I know I shouldn't ask too much, what's going on with them?" Natasha asked a little nervously, and she still can't figure out the scene that surpassed her previous attempts.

"What do you think is going on?" Nick didn't answer Natasha, but asked her instead.

"I... I don't know. Those present at the time were all veterans and former heroes, but... they seemed to obey that man's orders. I don't know that man, I'm afraid..." Nata Sarah hesitated.

"Are you afraid he's a threat?" Nick pressed.

"...Yes." After hesitating for a while, Natasha nodded.

"I thought so too, but it doesn't make sense." Nick smiled wryly.

"Why doesn't it make sense? We can take measures in advance, monitor, control..."

"Natasha, if Adam wants to do something, we have no ability to stop it." Coulson interrupted Natasha.

"How come..." Natasha and Barton were horrified. SHIELD was already the most powerful organization in the world in their hearts, with agents all over the world and technology at the forefront.

"Okay, you will learn about this later. The most important thing for us now is to investigate the inside. If what Ms. Carter and Mr. Howard said is true, then we may have to consider the way forward." Nick's face darkened Said.

Hearing this, the three were also silent. If Adam said these words, then Natasha and Barton would definitely not believe them, but they had to believe that these words came from the two founders of S.H.I.E.L.D. up.

"If it's true, sir, am I going to change my job again?" Natasha asked Nick with a slightly teasing tone. She was originally poached by Nick from other organizations.

"Hmm... It's not impossible." Nick thought for a while and replied. Originally, Nick brought Natasha and Button together today because they were familiar, and by the way, he tried to see if Adam liked these two.

In S.H.I.E.L.D., the combat power that Nick can see is no more than one hand, and Natasha and Patton are the best of them.

The gradual exposure of Steve and others was also due to the lack of combat power. The global scope is so wide, and there are always only a few of them, which is definitely not enough. He believes that Adam will continue to recruit people.

Nick wanted to take this opportunity to let Natasha and Barton join in, so as to deepen his relationship with Adam's family, and to find out about each other's details.

However... If something really cannot be done, it’s not that you can’t consider joining Adam’s organization directly with your confidantes. Compared with power, Nick is a person who is really worried about the safety of the earth. In his opinion, Adam’s organization is also in Strive for this, and at the same time not be dragged down by politicians, the nature of the organization is more pure.

"Sir!" The three of them were startled. Natasha was originally joking, but they didn't expect Nick to have such a plan.

"Let's check first, maybe the situation is not so serious." Nick said, also thinking about it in his heart.

……

The meeting of everyone on Adam's side was also over. After everyone left, something that caused Adam a headache happened.

"Why don't you let me participate? Am I not a member of the family?" Daisy complained to Adam angrily, with her hips akimbo.

"Daisy, are you ready?" Adam persuaded, rubbing his temples.

"I'm ready! I was able to travel alone the other day! I also solved two robberies by the way and helped the police take down a local gang! Mama Ushiwakamaru can testify!" Daisy vehemently retorted.

Adam looked at Ushiwakamaru with a depressed expression. Ushiwakamaru lowered his head in embarrassment and even took the initiative to admit his mistake.

Daisy pulled Ushiwakamaru away, rather Adam let Ushiwakamaru follow Daisy, mainly to protect Daisy's safety, but I didn't expect Daisy to be a crazy girl, just go out and play when you go out to play , Children should have their own ideas and space when they grow up, but what do you mean by taking the initiative to go to dangerous places?

And since Ushiwakamaru knew it, he didn't stop it, and he acted like an examiner, not intervening until the moment of danger.

"My lord, I misunderstood the meaning of my lord, and I would like to thank you..."

"Wait a minute! Ushiwakamaru, can you stop doing seppuku! Am I such an unreasonable person? Also, I don't want to do seppuku!" Adam snatched the knife from Ushiwakamaru's hand and threw it into the On the side, holding Ushi Wakamaru to comfort him.

Adam really can't laugh or cry, Ushiwakamaru is a heroic spirit, you really can't die if you really apologize?Just to return to the Throne of Heroes, you still cut the belly of the ghost?
Also, you are my woman, not a subordinate, may I watch you cut seppuku?Although I am fraternal, I am not a scumbag!Since when did I become that ruthless person in your heart?

"My lord..." When Ushiwakamaru was hugged tightly in Adam's arms, Makoto became weak and could not resist.

"Hi~ Dad! I'm talking business to you! I didn't come to see you and Ushiwakamaru's mother spreading dog food!" Daisy complained, her face bulging into a bun.

"Uh... sorry, Your Highness, I'm being rude." Ushiwakamaru struggled to break free from Adam's embrace, and stood aside with his head bowed in embarrassment, with steam coming from his head.

"Okay, Daisy, what we have to face is much more dangerous than robbers and gangsters, so don't mention this matter again." Adam directly refused.

"Hmph! Daddy hates you! I won't talk to you anymore! Momba, let's go play a game!"

"Uh... my lord..."

"Go, go..." Looking at Ba Yuqian's hopeful expression, Adam also agreed. Ba Yuqian looked like a gentle and virtuous girl, but Adam knew very well that Ba Yuqian was one of the big game nerds among the heroic spirits. one.

A flash of surprise flashed in Bayuqian's eyes, but she controlled it well, still maintaining a gentle smile and went upstairs with Daisy.

"My lord..." After the two went upstairs, Niu Wakamaru hesitated to speak.

"Hey, I know that Daisy is not an ordinary person, and there is great power hidden in her body, but Ushiwakamaru, do you really think it's appropriate to involve Daisy?" Adam asked Ushiwakamaru with a sigh.

"My lord, I didn't think too much about it, but Your Highness has the heart of a warrior. I think that even you can't stop a warrior from going to the battlefield." Ushiwakamaru said.

"Well, let's see it again." Adam agreed with Ushiwakamaru's words, and Daisy is indeed not an ordinary person. Her future is also full of twists and turns, and she has also achieved a legend.

But Adam still couldn't bear to part with him. He had different views on his son and daughter. His son was there for training. They would eventually leave his protection to support themselves. His daughter was the complete opposite. He was there for pain and he couldn't bear to let her get hurt at all. .

This is also when Steve had to join the army after setbacks, and Adam has always supported him and encouraged him.And Daisy did everything possible to keep her away from the dangerous cause.

Ushiwakamaru was silent, she understood that Adam was very conflicted, although she firmly believed that her point of view was correct, she did not speak to persuade him, she believed that Adam would make the best choice.

It has been like this for tens of thousands of years.

……

S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters in New York.

Nick's face was rather ugly, because what Paige and Howard said was confirmed.

In the entire S.H.I.E.L.D., there are less than a quarter of clean personnel who are truly loyal to S.H.I.E.L.D., and most of them are low-level personnel.

The others are all spies planted by other organizations, such as the FBI, CIA, etc.

This is nothing, it would be strange if an organization of the nature of S.H.I.E.L.D. had no spies.

What really makes Nick angry is that more than half of the people in S.H.I.E.L.D. are Hydra.

Yes, you read that right, Hydra, the terrible organization destroyed by Steve during World War II.

When Peggy mentioned "Snake and Shield", Nick thought of Hydra. After returning to S.H.I.E.L.D., he immediately started investigating.

I don’t know if I don’t check it. I was shocked when I checked it. Not only was Hydra not destroyed, but it grew several times stronger!Inside S.H.I.E.L.D., except for him as the director, all the middle and high-level department heads are Hydra people, and even his most trusted friend and comrade-in-arms, Alexander Pierce, also has major problems.

"Mommy Falke! This is the Hydra headquarters under the skin of S.H.I.E.L.D.!" Nick cursed in his heart.

"Sir, what do we do now?" Coulson asked.

"It's your birthday in two days, right?" Nick said to Coulson pointingly.

Coulson froze for a moment, but immediately understood what Nick meant.

"Yes, sir, I just wanted to ask you for a few days off." Coulson replied.

"Well... you are also an old man of S.H.I.E.L.D., and it's time to give you some benefits. In this way, call Agent Patton, Agent Romanov, Hill and the others to celebrate your birthday together." Nick Said.

"Sir, isn't it good? It's a busy time in the bureau..."

"I'm the director, I have the final say! That's the decision! No, it's not enough. S.H.I.E.L.D. has very few benefits and rare opportunities. I'll arrange a public trip for you to relax. Only by combining work and rest can you work better." Don't you?" Nick grinned, showing his big white teeth.

"Uh... then thank you, sir."

"Is there any place you want to go? As long as you are in China, you can choose."

"Hmm...how about Hawaii? Sir, it's peak tourist season."

"No, let's go to Los Angeles. There are also beaches there, and there are many beautiful women, aren't they? You can bring your family."

"Okay, thank you sir, I'll go get busy first." Coulson understood.

"Go."

After Coulson left, Nick tapped on the table, took out an encrypted phone, and sent a message to the other side.

"Coulson's birthday will be in a few days, we are going to celebrate him by building a new house next door to you? The more luxurious the building, the better! Issue an invoice from S.H.I.E.L.D.!"
