American comics: Super Omega Mutant

Chapter 99 Presidential Pardon

When Coulson and Hawkeye saw Captain America humming a little tune of his own while sitting in a chair, they knew that the situation was heading for the worst.

When they found out that the person Roy wanted to put a bounty on was Bucky, they guessed that Captain America would definitely not sit idly by.

Bucky is Captain America’s most important friend, second only to his parents!
If it weren't for Buggy, the frail and sickly boy would have died in some unknown alley long ago.

They guessed that Captain America would be angry and out of control.

But they didn't expect that Captain America would turn evil in front of them.

Sighing helplessly, Hawkeye said to Coulson: "Call all senior agents to the New York branch."

"Before the new director takes office, we can only decide on future actions through internal discussions."

After hearing Hawkeye's words, Coulson frowned and said, "Agents Hill and Romanov were also notified?"

"Notify me!"

"No matter what, they are still senior agents of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Hawkeye said slowly.

He didn't particularly agree with Nick Fury's arrangement of Black Widow and Agent Hill to use a honey trap on Roy.

He knew that this was a well-considered decision by Nick Fury that would ease the relationship between SHIELD and Roy and buy SHIELD more time to prepare.

But he still felt that letting Black Widow and Agent Hill use the honey trap was not a good decision.

As it turned out, his concerns were justified.

"Okay, I'll have someone notify all the senior agents to come over."

After saying that, Coulson left the observation room.

When Coulson left, Hawkeye looked at Captain America on the surveillance screen without saying a word.

Pentagon.

In a high-level conference room filled with smoke, twenty or thirty senior US military generals sat in the conference room staring at each other.

Before Roy executed Nick Fury and Bucky, they received the news that Nick Fury had been captured.

Then not long after, they received a call for an emergency meeting.

Although Nick Fury is not a member of the military, he is now an important partner of the military.

When the President authorized the military and SHIELD to jointly implement the "Top Threat" plan, SHIELD and the military, which had originally had a not-so-good relationship, began to cooperate more closely than ever before.

In addition to close cooperation in personnel, equipment, technology, intelligence, etc., the military and SHIELD also secretly organized more than a dozen secret exercises.

As for the purpose of the drill, it was of course to confirm that the number one threat plan could successfully eliminate Roy.

Seeing that no one in the conference room was going to speak, an Air Force general said, "This is not the first time that Roy Chen has killed someone in public."

"If he dared to execute Nick Fury in Times Square tonight, he will dare to bring us and other senior government officials to Times Square and execute them tomorrow."

"If no one has an idea, let's vote."

"Those who agree to execute the top threat plan ahead of schedule may raise their hands now."

After saying this, the Air Force Admiral sitting at the front of the conference table was the first to raise his right hand.

The other generals in the conference room immediately exchanged glances, and some of them slowly raised their right hands.

Not even ten?
After seeing that less than ten generals agreed to implement the plan ahead of schedule, the Air Force General who initiated the proposal suddenly looked gloomy.

Just as he was about to say something, General Ross, who was sitting with other Army generals, suddenly said, "I think we can discuss this issue later."

"What's the reason?"

the Air Force General who proposed it immediately asked.

"After Nick Fury's death, no one in S.H.I.E.L.D. had enough authority to cooperate with us in carrying out the 'Top Threat' plan."

"Without the authorization of the Director of SHIELD, other people in SHIELD may not be willing to cooperate with us unconditionally."

"In addition, as far as I know, SHIELD also has a plan to deal with Roy Chen." "SHIELD's consistent style, I don't need to tell you all know it."

"They would be more inclined to deal with Roy Chen alone than to join forces."

"So my suggestion is to hold off for now and wait until the president completes the appointment of a new director of S.H.I.E.L.D."

General Ross said slowly.

If the plan to deal with Roy's number one threat does not require the cooperation of SHIELD, he will also agree to implement the number one threat plan in advance and completely eliminate Roy, the unstable factor.

But the problem is that SHIELD is a key part of the top threat plan.

Without the unconditional cooperation of SHIELD, it would be impossible to successfully implement the plan with the strength of the military alone.

By then, let alone completely eliminating Roy, it would be a question whether the Pentagon would become a historical term.

After listening to General Ross's explanation, the generals who had not raised their hands just now spoke up to express their opinions.

"I agree with Ross."

"Me too."

"me too."

In just a dozen seconds, more than half of the generals agreed with General Ross's suggestion.

After everyone expressed their opinions, the Air Force General who proposed to implement the plan ahead of schedule frowned slightly and said slowly: "I will report your opinions to the president. It's getting late, so I won't stop you from going back to rest."

After saying that, the Air Force General stood up and left the meeting room without looking back.

Washington DC.

An internal meeting is also being held in the Oval Office of the White House, where only a few people can attend.

This internal meeting did not last long.

The meeting ended after less than ten minutes of discussion.

After the meeting, the White House immediately held a press conference.

The press conference did not contain much content, it could even be said to be very brief, with only four points.

First, remove Nick Fury from his position as director of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Second, the appointment of the new director of SHIELD will be officially announced in three days.

Third, Nick Fury sent someone to deliver a time bomb to Roy's house as a private act, not an official mission of S.H.I.E.L.D.

Fourth, the president signed a pardon, and the authorities will not hold Roy legally responsible for the private execution of Nick Fury and Bucky in Times Square.

Manhattan Sky Building.

Roy sat on the sofa in the living room and watched the press conference held by the White House.

When he heard the spokesperson say that the president had signed the pardon, he smiled disdainfully.

On paper, the president pardoned him for the murder in Times Square.

But in reality, the purpose of this pardon is not to pardon his crimes, but to serve as a fig leaf for the White House.

At a press conference half a year ago, he publicly announced that he did not recognize any American laws and did not accept the rule and jurisdiction of the U.S. government.

Also, this isn't the first time he's killed someone in Times Square.

Half a year ago, he shot a redneck's head with a shock beam in front of everyone, and left the heads of John Garrett and Grant Ward at the scene.

That time, the White House chose to take the cold shoulder and did not comment on his killing of Rednecks, John Garrett and others.

Although the White House did not continue to choose the cold treatment this time, it still chose to give in.

The only difference is that this time the White House used the presidential pardon as a fig leaf to save some face for itself.
