Black American Comics: Start with a Snap

Chapter 97 False Peace

Rhodes' arrival interrupted Hayward's actions, and also calmed Su Ze, who was about to take action.

Seeing the real boss coming, Su Ze's mouth curled up, and his body, which was stretched straight in the chair, slowly relaxed a lot.

"The president's order?" Hayward frowned and looked at Rhodes. He knew the identity of the man in front of him and knew that he was much higher than him in terms of position. "I have already applied for a transfer order. I will be responsible for this matter."

"You are only the head of S.W.O.R.D., and Kaia is an agent of the new Avengers base. He even went to outer space with us last week to carry out a mission. Based on your status, you have no right to detain him, let alone the qualifications to interrogate him."

Rhodes had a blank expression on his face, staring at Hayward in front of him.

"Are you going to cover up for him?" Hayward gritted his teeth.

"I'm just following orders. From the moment he stepped on the spacecraft, Kya has been a member of the Avengers. This is acknowledged by Steve Rogers himself. According to the Sokovia Accords, any problems with the Avengers will be resolved by the United Nations."

Rhodes took out a document from somewhere and handed it to Hayward in front of him.

"This is the document sent by the United Nations ten minutes ago. From now on, I will be responsible for Kaia and the others. If you have any opinions, you can report them to your superiors."

As he spoke, Rhodes smiled again.

"Oh, by the way, I forgot to remind you that according to my position, I am now your superior, so you can pack up and leave."

"you!"

Hayward pointed at Rhodes, his fingers trembling slightly with excitement.

At this moment, countless thoughts appeared in Hayward's mind, but when he thought of the identity of the person in front of him, he suppressed these thoughts.

Rod showed no fear of the angry Hayward. He just looked at him calmly, as if he was looking at a clown.

The atmosphere in the room was silent for a while, and Hayward finally chose to take a step back. Perhaps the title of War Machine was not threatening enough to him, but being a general with real power was completely different.

Turning around and glaring at Su Ze, Hayward quickly picked up the folder on the table, turned around and walked out of the interrogation room quickly.

"You're lucky."

After leaving this sentence, Hayward slammed the door shut with a loud bang.

At this moment, the room fell into silence again.

Su Ze and Rod looked at each other, and neither of them took the initiative to break the silence.

After a while, Rod took the first step. He pulled out the chair in front of Hayward, sat down slowly, and looked at Su Ze calmly.

"You shouldn't be here, Kaia."

"Of course I shouldn't be here. This is for criminals, and I'm not a criminal, and neither are Matt and Jessica. You know that very well." Su Ze replied calmly.

"It's not about me, Kaia." Rhodes crossed his legs and said calmly, "You guys went too far in Hell's Kitchen, and now the president is very angry."

"Stop talking nonsense. The president has no idea what happened. Or you could say that you have already sidelined the people around the president, right?" Su Ze interrupted Rhodes and looked at the man opposite him meaningfully.

After he finished speaking, Rhodes was not at all surprised by Su Ze's reaction.

Although they had not met much, Rhodes knew how smart the young man in front of him was.

"I knew Kalina couldn't fool you experienced agents."

Rhodes chuckled and shook his head, speaking slowly.

"Claire discovered it, and now you've discovered it too. The parliament is still too anxious about the progress. I mentioned before that we shouldn't rush to replace the memory before it's completely copied. Now it's revealed."

Listening quietly to Rhodes' words, Su Ze's face darkened a little.

"At first I was curious. We had changed our route temporarily, so how could you still track us? Now it seems that we took the route to find Adjutant Claire and walked into your trap."

"You reacted quickly." Rhodes crossed his arms and looked at Su Ze approvingly. "That Claire is indeed a trouble, but fortunately, she called me to contact the president."

After a pause, Rhodes continued.

"Also, the attack you and Rocket Raccoon just launched in Hell's Kitchen was also carried out by us, but we wanted to attack Claire at the time, but she was very smart and chose to act covertly. Our people mistook your car for Claire's, but after discovering the target was wrong, we immediately stopped the operation."

"Should I thank you for not killing me?" Su Ze narrowed his eyes slightly.

"Don't be so hostile. In a sense, we are comrades, right? After all, we went together to kill Thanos and avenge the disappearance of half of the people in the universe." Rhodes smiled.

"You green-skinned aliens are not qualified to be my comrades."

"Then the Avengers are qualified?" Rhodes did not react to the offense in Suze's words. "Who do you think is qualified to be your teammate, Rocket?"

"You don't deserve to mention Rocket's name. You are just a group of homeless alien refugees, and the most notorious guys in the universe." Su Ze said. "It seems that you already know something about our tribe." Rhode blinked. He was not surprised by this. With Rocket Raccoon as an alien, their identity could not be hidden for too long.

Su Ze also sneered and looked up and down at Rhodes in front of him.

"Then why don't you talk to me with your original face?"

Hearing this, Rhodes did not answer. After being silent for a while, he slowly closed his eyes.

As the surface of skin and clothes slowly folded, soon, as if by Loki's magic, Rhodes in front of him turned into a woman with green skin and sharp teeth.

Although he was mentally prepared, Su Ze was still a little surprised after seeing the other party's appearance.

He didn't expect that the Skrull who pretended to be Rhodes was actually a woman.

"Are you satisfied?"

The Skrull woman smiled.

"I almost forgot how long it has been since I showed my true self in front of others. You don't know how much pain this makes me suffer."

"I really can't understand the 'pain' of a woman dressed as a man."

Su Ze raised his eyebrows. He had not forgotten how ambiguous the relationship between Rhodes and Carol Danvers was in Avengers 4.

At that time, I didn't know that Rhodes was a Skrull in disguise, and I thought they were going to fall in love like in the comics. Now it seems that this was all a scheme of the Skrulls.

"So your plan is to use this face to seduce Carol Danvers?"

"Haha. Should I say you are smart or that you can predict the future?" The Skrull woman couldn't help laughing when she heard this. "You guessed right. The Council did have this idea when they first asked me to infiltrate the Avengers."

At this, the Skrull woman tilted her head.

"After all, I am a woman. I know what women like, so as long as I am given enough time, I am sure I can win Carol Danvers. It's just that plans can't keep up with changes."

The explosion seemed to be the fuse of all this. If Fisk hadn't accidentally destroyed the Skrulls' plan, these guys would never have launched an invasion war so quickly.

But what Suze wanted to know more was what kind of power these Skrulls possessed.

Supporting her chin with her hand, the Skrull woman looked at Su Ze opposite her with interest.

"You know, you're the one I want to get to know more than Carol Danvers."

"Oh?" Su Ze raised his eyebrows.

"You are different from others, Kaia. I can see that you are different from other superheroes in the Avengers. You are like a primitive man who accidentally broke into the future." The Skrull woman smiled slightly.

"We've only met a few times, are you so sure you know everything about me?" Su Ze said calmly.

"Although we don't have much communication, many people are watching you. Although those are reports submitted to me by others, if possible, I would rather get to know you in person." As she said that, the Skrull woman stretched out her hand and touched the back of Suze's hand.

Feeling the touch of the back of his hand, Su Ze shook his head. "Are you going to use the honey trap you used on Carol Danvers on me? Are you looking down on me a little too much?"

"In the past few decades on Earth, we have deeply understood that you humans, whether you are in high positions or celebrities admired by thousands of people, are actually animals full of wildness in your hearts."

Su Ze raised his head and saw that the Skrull opposite him had turned into Natasha at some point. She showed an alluring smile and rubbed her fingers gently on the back of Su Ze's hand.

"Don't you like it?"

In the blink of an eye, Natasha turned into Wanda again, and then switched between the bodies of Hill, Kalina, and Carol Danvers.

"Whatever you want, I can satisfy you, or do you prefer the private detective next door?"

Before she could finish, Su Ze pulled his hand back.

Looking at the naked Jessica Jones in front of him, Su Ze's expression did not change at all.

"I advise you to save your energy. You can use this method on Hayward. Maybe he would be more willing to betray the Earth for this."

"You misunderstood. I didn't want you to betray the Earth." Jessica Jones smiled. "We just want a home. This should be a win-win result for both you and us."

"I'm sorry, but I can't see any win-win situation from the developments over the past few days. I only see you brutally killing countless innocent people in order to invade the Earth."

"For the ultimate peace, those people are just necessary sacrifices."

Jessica Jones opened her hands and spoke softly.

"Wouldn't it be nice to welcome the real future? Let humans and Skrulls live together on Earth. This is a good thing for both of us."
