Chapter 435: Fanatical Tony
🕑 Added 2025-11-08 06:59:52 +0000 UTCFury's mouth twitched. Head of Hydra SHIELD Division?
And "head"? That name sounded mocking no matter how he heard it. To be honest, Fury had long noticed that there were problems within SHIELD, and they were not just ordinary problems. But now, hearing Noah say this, he realized that the problem was far more terrifying than he had imagined!
However, Fury was still very cautious. He trusted Noah and was willing to believe Noah, but he truly dared not be careless when it came to SHIELD. After much thought, Fury decided to ask, for example, how some of SHIELD's futures were exposed.
"You're asking about that? It's simple. Because you prepared something called Project Insight and accidentally killed my future junior disciple, so..." Noah shrugged, completely uncaring about using Strange to deflect some blame.
"Project Insight, so you can indeed see the future, and this project truly has problems," Fury mused for a moment, seemingly accepting Noah's statement.
"It's more than just a problem. SHIELD has long been infiltrated like a sieve. You thought this project was a secret, but more people know about it than you imagine."
Fury listened to Noah's words and nodded in silence.
Indeed, at first, Fury thought that SHIELD was just different factions vying for power, and he could only act as a mediator among them. But now, it seemed that this was not just different factions competing; this was simply a table set by Hydra!
"You just said, up to the former director of SHIELD?"
Suddenly, Fury remembered a detail. Even the director who promoted him was Hydra? This made Fury feel like he didn't know who to trust anymore.
"Yes, there aren't many people you can trust in SHIELD, actually." Noah stroked his chin, recalling carefully.
"Hmm, for example, Natasha Romanoff can be trusted, and Phil Coulson, Maria Hill, Clint Barton, Sharon Carter are all trustworthy."
"Only these people?"
"Pretty much. In the future, they can help you. As for those I didn't mention, it means I haven't seen them in the future; they might have been absorbed, or they simply couldn't help." This was a cruel reality, because a low job rank indeed means you can't do anything. Fury understood this very well, so he could only sigh in sorrow and had no other thoughts.
"Wait, what about the STRIKE team?"
"Oh? Crossbones? No, Rumlow? He's a loyal Hydra fanatic. You don't need to consider the entire STRIKE team."
Alright, another piece of bad news. Fury felt as if his mental fortitude had become even stronger; hearing this news, he surprisingly didn't show much surprise and quickly accepted the reality. One could only say that the situation was already so bad, what else could he do?
Fortunately, there was some good news. From beginning to end, Noah only mentioned SHIELD's situation, not the Avengers'. This naturally indicated that there were no individuals in the Avengers who had sided with Hydra.
Although the Avengers Initiative was under SHIELD, most of them simply didn't listen...
"Alright, I'll go back and check it out properly," Fury sighed and then stood up. "Damn it, I never expected to hear such terrifying news."
"You're leaving?" Noah looked at the standing Fury and stroked his chin. "Alright, I was going to give you some advice, but if that's the case..."
"I found I haven't finished my tea yet, no hurry. And I only stood up to relieve my nerves and relax my mind.
Go on." Tony looked at Fury with immense disdain. He knew what kind of person this guy usually was. But now, his demeanor was completely different from usual.
However, Tony himself was curious about what advice Noah planned to give Fury. Was he going to watch the door of the Ministry of Magic? Or... address the alien incident?
Tony was indeed very smart. The moment Noah opened
his mouth, he understood: "If you had known this information before, you might have had to pretend not to know and wait for death, but now you have a new way out."
"A new way out?" Fury frowned, but his eyes quickly lit up. "You mean... these aliens?"
"Exactly," Noah nodded directly. "Go back and find your highest leader. Remember, not some World Security Council, but your very top echelon. Tell them that you will spearhead and lead a new security organization.
This organization can cooperate with the magical world to prevent and guard Earth's safety together."
"Cooperating with the magical world... a new security organization..." Fury's breathing quickened. This was a huge piece of cake!
"Uh-huh. And you can fully utilize the shortage of manpower to transfer some people you trust, including the Avengers. You can even let them become independent or place them under your new organization. By the way, have Coulson stay in SHIELD to relay information to you, and when the time is ripe..."
Noah didn't elaborate on "when the time is ripe."
Everyone present was smart and didn't need such detailed explanations! With just these few words, Fury was completely tempted. It must be said that this was indeed an excellent opportunity!
Since the Battle of New York, the magical world had been exposed. Fury was well aware of how much the ordinary world longed for, revered, and feared the magical world.
Now, being able to cooperate with this terrifying world, even if just to gather intelligence, those high-ranking officials probably wouldn't miss out. As for the magical world? They were even easier to deal with. Just like forming the World Security Council, they would naturally need to form a specialized department to face and handle these matters, wouldn't they?
Due to some of Noah's actions, those high-ranking officials in the magical world always said so, and the Ministry of Magic also controlled many high-ranking personnel. They could then volunteer themselves...
"Whether they take the positions themselves or send their trusted subordinates, everything will be under control."
A simple conversation, just a few sentences, almost definitively established a brand new pattern for this world. Although it might seem despicable because Noah and the magical interests he represented completely dominated, Tony didn't care, and Fury didn't care at all.
Because they both knew that sorcerers were inherently a powerful group. Noah using the magical world as a bargaining chip was truly a great gesture towards Fury, and Fury could also guess Noah's reasons for doing so.
Besides dealing with these aliens, another reason was to deal with those who held malicious intent towards sorcerers. Although such an action made Fury feel like a traitor, after much thought, he realized his mission was to protect Earth, and sorcerers were also humans, so it didn't seem like such a big deal after all.
With this matter resolved, Fury also intended to leave.
However, just as Fury stood up again, Noah suddenly took out a hard drive and threw it to Tony. This action immediately made Fury raise an eyebrow. He seemed to remember Noah saying that he had once gone to a parallel universe, and that place was the Star Wars world?
Without a sound, Fury sat down again. Regardless of whether the tea in front of him was cold or completely gone, he picked it up, took a sip, and looked comfortable. Tony and Noah didn't pay attention to his actions. Tony, even more curious, looked at it for a long time.
"This is... your spoils?" Tony reacted quickly enough, immediately realizing something, and his hand immediately transformed into armor mode. "Jarvis, read the information on this hard drive."
"Yes, sir." Jarvis quickly gave Tony an answer. The next moment, a USB-like device appeared on Tony's armored arm and was directly inserted into the hard drive. At this point, time seemed to slow down. A light screen appeared in front of Tony, with various data scrolling wildly. Noah casually picked up his teacup and took a sip. The data on this hard drive was real; Noah had specifically had BD1, Thor, and Loki check it.
But soon, Noah frowned because he found the tea in his cup had already gone cold. This made Noah realize that they had indeed been chatting for a long time. This couldn't help but make Noah look strangely at Fury.
Wasn't this guy looking quite pleased just now?
"Scan complete, sir," Jarvis's voice rang out just as Noah looked strange.
"Oh? What are the results?" Tony immediately perked up, asking excitedly.
"Sir, this data completely surpasses current technological standards. If mastered and perfectly applied, perhaps in the future, we can control the entire galaxy."
"..."
"However, I have a question, sir, because the technology inside is very similar to a movie in my database called Star Wars."
"..."
Good, now Noah didn't need to explain anything further, because Jarvis had already explained everything. Noah watched with interest as Tony and Fury looked very uncomfortable. Their expressions were truly priceless. Star Wars holds too important a place for Americans, and Noah suddenly going to that world, one can imagine the impact it had on them.
After a long while, Tony slowly recovered from the shock, and then he looked at Noah with fanaticism. "Hey! Quickly tell me, what did you bring back? Did you get the Death Star?" Tony's eyes gleamed as if he had seen some peerless beauty.
"It's all there. I think asking Jarvis is more useful than asking me; I don't know any of this stuff," Noah shrugged.
"And I don't think you can build the Death Star if you
brought it back."
"Damn it, you're probably right. But did you... did you rob the Empire?"
"Kind of. Anakin gave me all this data."
"Anakin? Damn it! Darth Vader? You actually met him?
What era did you go to? Did you meet Master Yoda?"
"I met them all. Unfortunately, in the era I went to, Luke was still a little kid playing in the mud."
