Marvel: Starting with the forced creation of villainous characters
Chapter 42: The Sonic Shock Device.
Obadiah didn't understand, and even somewhat couldn't comprehend, the thought process of the mastermind behind it all.
He originally thought the other party wanted to extort money from him, but it turned out that the other party was after his entire fortune. He originally thought the other party would take it by force, but the mastermind behind the scenes made such an unexpected offer.
Most importantly, he actually felt that the conditions weren't entirely unacceptable.
He originally came here in a very aggressive manner with his people, intending to negotiate, since the other party was asking for 10% of the shares, which was too much.
But he never expected that the other party would want his assets in this way.
The most ingenious part of the other party's conditions is that everything will only take effect after he dies.
But what he lacks now is time. Once he takes care of Tony Stark, the leverage he left in the other party's hands will be useless.
Once he's dealt with Tony Stark, he'll have plenty of ways to deal with the mastermind behind it all.
After only a moment's hesitation, Obadiah had already made up his mind.
The reason he asked that question was simply to test the other party's attitude.
With her arms crossed, Jessica Jones said indifferently, "Just do as I say."
Obadiah signed his name on the documents without hesitation, then added, "I will have both documents certified by a law firm, and I may even announce the contents of the documents in public."
The terms offered by the other party were too good to pass up. Obadiah was afraid that Mark would change his mind, and he even felt uneasy. So now he was more eager than Mark to make this happen.
Obadiah gave a fake smile and said, "Well, one last thing, it's not safe for a girl like you to stay here alone. Why don't you come back with us?"
Jessica Jones raised an eyebrow; she had a pretty good idea of what the other person was up to.
"No need, I can go back and report myself later," Jessica Jones declined.
"That's not up to you." Obadiah nodded to the bodyguards beside him, signaling them to forcibly take Jessica Jones away.
He did this partly to test the other party, and partly to see if he had misunderstood anything. What if there was no mastermind behind this, and it was all done by this little girl?
As for whether the other party will turn against us?
The deal is now done, and the other party won't turn against you over such a small matter. Besides, if they really get angry, they can just return the person.
Upon receiving the order, the bodyguards surrounded Jessica Jones. Faced with their encirclement, Jessica Jones casually stretched her neck, as if she was starting to loosen up her muscles.
"Use your guns, or you won't have any chance," Jessica Jones kindly advised.
"superior!"
The security captain gave a low shout and then pounced on Jessica Jones like a tiger, while the others rushed forward, trying to force Jessica Jones to the ground.
"Bang!"
The first security captain to rush forward was sent flying backward at an even greater speed, crashing into the crowd and even dragging several of his colleagues along with him.
Jessica Jones, who deliberately held back her strength, was able to take down a bodyguard with almost every move. In less than a minute, all eight bodyguards brought by Obadiah were lying on the ground.
Obadiah's face darkened as he looked at the bodyguards screaming in agony on the ground.
"A bunch of useless trash!" Obadiah cursed inwardly, put on his headset, and pressed the sonic stun gun in his hand.
Just as Jessica Jones was about to teach Obadiah a lesson, she suddenly stumbled and looked at the sonic stun gun in Obadiah's hand with some discomfort.
Despite her discomfort, Jessica Jones walked up to Obadiah.
"It's a pretty interesting thing. It works extremely well on ordinary people, and it's also effective in a wide area." After Jessica Jones finished commenting, she pried open the other person's fingers and snatched the sonic stun gun from their hand.
After grabbing the sonic stun gun, Jessica Jones urged, "Give me the earpiece."
Obadiah felt like his fingers were about to be crushed, and realizing that he really couldn't handle the little girl, he obediently took off the headset.
Obadiah added cooperatively, "The charger is in my car."
Jessica Jones nodded, then curiously examined the sonic stun gun in her hand.
Growing increasingly satisfied with the toy, Jessica Jones asked, "This is a very interesting toy, can I have it?"
Obadiah nodded quickly, then went back to the car and gave the charger to Jessica Jones as well.
"Consider this an apology. I forgive you for your earlier probing." Jessica Jones patted Obadiah on the shoulder, then turned and entered the Brooklyn Naval Shipyard.
"President Obadiah, you'd better head back soon. Tony Stark is about to return to New York, and you need to pick him up at the airport yourself. Oh, and my boss asked me to tell you that your good nephew has a big surprise for you!" Jessica Jones warned without turning her head.
Upon hearing this, Obadiah's expression changed, and he hurriedly urged the bodyguard lying dead on the ground to get up.
He knew the person behind it all was definitely inside the shipyard, but since they had already warned him, he didn't dare to recklessly test them.
After all, they had already given him a chance.
"Damn superhumans!" Obadiah cursed under his breath, then turned and got into the car.
Mark's lips curled slightly as he watched Obadiah's convoy drive away through his binoculars.
Everything is proceeding according to plan.
He specifically had Skye investigate Obadiah, and only after confirming that Obadiah had no descendants in this world did he choose this method of blackmail.
Obadiah nominally adopted Emma, which means that Emma already has inheritance rights, in addition to the notarized will.
All that's needed is for Obadiah to die, and Emma can then rightfully inherit Obadiah's estate—or, in America, it should be called a charitable foundation and trust.
Skye, still worried, asked, "Mark, are you sure Obadiah will die within two months?"
"Everyone dies eventually, but some people need a little help," Mark said meaningfully.
If the plot goes astray and Obadiah lives too long, he will secretly intervene to give the other party a shortcut.
"Let's go, we should head back too," Mark urged.
Jessica Jones, who was waiting for the two of them next to the RV, went to greet them after seeing Mark and the others get off.
"Everything is just as you predicted. Those guys really did make their move. Oh, and this is for you." Jessica Jones handed Mark the sonic stun gun.
Jessica Jones explained, "You're quite the troublemaker, so having this for self-defense gives us peace of mind."
Mark took the sonic stun gun handed to him and examined it curiously.
He was quite interested in this small gadget; a sonic stun gun was definitely a good tool for ambushing people, and most importantly, it was quite suitable for him.
"But there's something I don't understand. Why not just let Obadiah adopt you?" Jessica Jones asked, puzzled.
"I have my own plans, you'll find out later," Mark could only say evasively. After all, he couldn't very well say that his current persona as the mastermind behind everything was unsuitable for stepping into the limelight, could he?
