Man in Marvel: The Manifestation of the Gods

Angry citizens demanded that the US government explain its funding of terrorists and its illegal human experiments.

And publish the budget expenditures of various government departments, prohibit political donations, guard against staff meddling in politics, strictly enforce antitrust laws, etc.

It’s no exaggeration!

This emerging country, which was established just over two hundred years ago, is on the brink of disintegration.

Several southern states, including Texas, began clamoring to secede from the United States.

They said they wanted to build a clean, honest, friendly, peaceful and independent Catholic country!

"Rather than watching a bunch of damn politicians treat the people of each state as fools and allow those vampires to continue to suck blood from ordinary people." - The current governor of Texas angrily pointed out.

Stark becomes the flag of freedom

Stark, who is constantly targeted by the government and threatened by the chaebol, is a hero who dares to say "no" to darkness.

The level of recognition is much greater than simply saving New York or taking out a few terrorist lairs.

His support rate among the masses firmly ranks first, even surpassing that of US captain Steve.

The United States worships superheroes, especially lone heroes.

In addition, Killian went on a killing spree, killing more than half of the 160 congressmen participating in the hearing.

The political situation in the United States has fallen into unprecedented chaos.

This is exactly the opportunity Rody has been waiting for!

A week ago, Second World completed various relevant reviews and will enter the world stage in the form of a chat software.

A large number of companies that had previously targeted the Stark Group were acquired by the Kingpin Group.

For various reasons, such as the chairman being killed or negative news breaking out.

With the combination of Roddy's carrot and stick approach, some were swallowed up, some were suppressed, and some were conquered.

From a certain perspective, Roddy has accomplished an unprecedented feat. He controls the economy of the United States. All he needs to do is snap his fingers and the world will face an economic crisis.

Stark New Energy Building

The traces left by Dr. Lizard's previous battle have been repaired, and this is no longer the gathering place for the Avengers.

Instead, it became the base of the "Black King" organization centered around Rody. After being renovated, the top-floor office was decorated in a cool black tone.

Standing at the floor-to-ceiling window, you can see a huge crowd of people below.

Today is Stark's first public speech, and many New Yorkers came to attend.

They are eager to see a real hero to lead the United States, rather than those disappointing politicians.

"Hey, Stark... I don't think you need to be so nervous. It's just a speech."

Stark, who was standing in front of the floor-length mirror, adjusted his tie to ensure he looked his best when facing his voters.

Roddy, with a mask on his face, sat lazily on the comfortable leather sofa and waved.

In his hand was a glass of wine, shaking slightly.

I felt very amused in my heart. I didn't expect that such a shameless guy like Stark would also get nervous sometimes.

"Shh, shut up, okay? I'm not nervous at all, no!"

Stark still argued stubbornly, and looked at Rody who was sitting there, feeling mixed emotions.

After the attack on Capitol Hill, at the first meeting of Black King members held the next day, Stark learned that the people who attacked Stark Group were all members of Black King.

Even about Killian's plan, Rhodey did not hide it from Stark, but told him directly.

Just as Roddy guessed, Stark could not accept being treated like a puppet and having his and others' fate manipulated at will.

But now Stark has no way out. Either he follows Rody to the end of the road, or he is turned into a puppet by Rody's magic.

Anyway, he had been tricked by Roddy more than once, and in the end the two of them chose to make peace.

No matter what Stark thinks, Roddy only cares whether the plan is implemented.

"Sometimes I really wonder who you are, where you come from, and what you know."

Giving up adjusting his tie, Stark was only nervous for a moment, then he calmed down and walked to the bar to pour himself a glass of whiskey.

"Secrets make men attractive." Roddy just shrugged and smiled.

"Ding-dong-"

The elevator sounded.

With the crisp sound of high heels hitting the floor, Roddy knew it was Pepper Potts without looking back.

She was wearing a light red business suit, her light golden hair tied up high in a noble lady's hairstyle. She walked across the sofa to Stark, and frowned when she saw that he was still in the mood to drink.

"Tony, you should go downstairs and get ready. There are 160,000 people coming to listen to your speech today... and the TV station will broadcast it nationwide."

"I know, I know...but look, don't worry, I can handle these things babe."

Seeing that she couldn't win over Stark, Pepper kissed the old man, then turned around and gave Rhodey a cold look.

"Hey, Miss Potts is beautiful again."

Rody raised his glass, took a sip of wine and smiled.

Women are all stingy. Pepper Potts still can't accept the fact that she was infected with the desperate virus.

She has always wanted to persuade Tony Stark to distance himself from the mysterious Sentinel. She doesn't understand what happened between the two.

Stark also had his own difficulties. He couldn't tell Pepper that your man had no way to deal with this guy and could only be led by the nose.

...

Eleven o'clock in the morning.

Several fireworks shot out from the roof of the Stark New Energy Building.

Four huge campaign posters fell from all sides, including pictures of Tony Stark in various poses, including one wearing the Mark armor.

It has to be said that these posters, on the one hand, hide the shortcoming of Tony Stark's short stature, while on the other hand, they show his confident aura.

As the poster fell.

This caused the people who were still waiting below to cheer, the deafening sound reaching the sky.

"Oh—Tony!"

"Iron Man!"

"I love you..."

At the podium that had already been set up at the entrance of the building, as the crowd quickly calmed down, the large screens on the left and right focused their cameras on the door that separated darkness and light.

It symbolizes a hero walking from darkness into light!

“Bang—bang—bang!”

The sound of leather shoes hitting the ground echoed, and the hearts of the citizens were gripped.

They waited and waited until a familiar man with a mustache walked out of the building entrance with a smile and came to the podium that had been prepared long ago.

Tony Stark thought there were a lot of people, but he didn't expect that the surrounding area was filled with people, and he could hardly see the end. He couldn't help but take a deep breath.

He pointed into the microphone and smiled.

"Hey Manhattan....New York! Good morning."

Chapter 158 Ancient One Arrives

“Is this my line?”

In the room on the top floor of Stark Tower, a live speech downstairs was being broadcast on the huge TV in front of the sofa.

When Roddy heard Stark say "Hello New York" into the microphone, he couldn't help but smile.

Is it possible to plagiarize his ideas?

But considering that today was Stark's good day, he was magnanimous and didn't bother with him.

The deafening cheers from below could be heard even from a building a hundred meters high.

Needless to say.

Stark's first contact with these people who come here to see him will definitely be a great success.

After going through all kinds of things during this period, Stark is no longer the stubborn playboy who was as hard and smelly as a stone in the toilet.

At least he controlled his temper and knew what the voters wanted.

They want a safe and peaceful world, a president who will not put personal interests above the country for selfish desires, and a leader who dares to say no to power.

Pepper Potts did not stay upstairs, but chose to stay at the podium downstairs to accompany Tony to witness this historic moment.

...

The speech began and everything fell silent.

"To be honest, I don't think I'm a good superhero, nor am I a family man like my father."

Stark on the screen appears to be very sincere, having washed away all the glitz and become calm.

There was a good-natured laugh from the audience.

Roddy previously directed Jessica to expose the "Devil's Island" that American politicians often visited.

Many bigwigs are on the list. What kind of ugly faces are hidden behind their seemingly righteous appearance?

These Devil's Islands hold hundreds of poor girls ranging in age from thirteen or fourteen to over twenty years old.

So it is said that there is no one who is not crazy... Roddy used the exposure of Alcatraz to successfully bring down a huge business empire family that controlled the entertainment and news circles.

"I don't think I'm a good leader either. Please, I'm not ready to lead a country forward."

Stark's expression became serious. Most American people are not so modest. They are used to speaking their mind, especially in large gatherings like today.

Tony Stark, you say right from the start that you are not capable and not suitable. What do other people think?

Fortunately, Stark glanced down and found that there was not too much chaos, so he was satisfied and continued.
