I'm Threatening You

The United States government completely miscalculated this time. It originally intended to use a strong stance to accuse the Avengers of acting without legal permission, thereby forcing the Avengers to join the government system and become a weapon in the hands of those in power.

The government had discussed this issue in a previous meeting, considering various possible scenarios and the Avengers' lack of cooperation, but they hadn't expected Xia Yu and his group to be so resolute.

Xia Yu toned down his imposing manner a bit, gestured for Natasha to stand up as well, and then turned to face the reporters, speaking loudly.

"See that, gentlemen? We've saved the world twice in this period, and these foolish politicians are thinking of putting Hero in jail."

Xia Yu turned back to the Vice President and the others, saying, "We won't be arrogant and challenge the law, but if you make unwarranted accusations, we're more than willing to challenge you politicians. The Avengers belong to the whole world; our existence is to protect this world, to protect good people, not to any particular class or country."

"If you want to put any of us in jail, you can try. Bring on your army, tanks, Missiles, anything you want."

Xia Yu's words were rather fierce, and the excited reporters quickly pressed their shutters, already having prepared their headlines.

The Avengers triumph at the hearing; Dragon Knight threatens the United States government.

"You are threatening the entire United States government. I warn you, Mr. Xia, your Avengers cannot fight against the whole world."

The vice president said coldly.

In a flash, Xia Yu covered less than ten meters in the blink of an eye and arrived in front of the vice president and his entourage. With a wave of his hand, he threw several microphones on the table to the ground.

Everyone around stood up, wondering what Xia Yu was up to. The reporters became even more excited, snapping photos incessantly.

Xia Yu might have a bit of a chuunibyou (delusional) streak, but the hundreds of people he killed when he first arrived in this world weren't for nothing. At this moment, the killing intent emanating from him was as tangible as it was directed at the three people in front of him.

Neither the Secretary of State nor the Vice President of this administration were born into the military. Even the military representative was a high-achieving graduate who held a high position but had barely fired a gun, a stark contrast to General Ross, who had been through the crucible of war.

Xia Yu's murderous aura made the three of them tremble slightly. The fact that they could still maintain their posture was a testament to the aura they had cultivated over many years in high positions.

Xia Yu placed his hands on the table, looked down at the people in front of him, and said in a low voice to the three of them:

"I'm threatening you, so what? We have no interest in politics, nor do we want to serve any department, but if you dare to use any dirty tricks against any of us..."

Xia Yu slowly revealed a disdainful smile, "The Bifrost of Asgard shines directly over the White House. Anyone who gets involved in this conflict with us, I swear I'll tear their entire family to shreds. I'm not like the Captain, who's all about justice and principles. I'm more of an extreme person. If you lay a finger on me, I'll kill your whole family. Believe it or not?"

After speaking, Xia Yu gently patted the table in front of him, and just like Thanos snapping his the Snap, the circular conference table, which was several meters long, turned into ashes in the blink of an eye.

The entire room fell silent.

A deathly silence.

Even Tony and Natasha didn't expect Xia Yu to be so assertive today.

Keen-eyed reporters could see that most of the government officials attending the hearing had cold sweat on their foreheads.

Xia Yu turned around and spoke loudly to the reporters again.

"The Avengers will apply to the United Nations to establish a Hero organization. We will not have a large military force, nor will we participate in any political activities. We are simply here to protect ordinary people and protect the world."

After speaking, Xia Yu and his two companions walked outside confidently. The reporters, who had just realized what was happening, swarmed around them.

"Please make way, everyone. We will be holding a press conference in a few days, where we will answer all your questions. Please make way."

After leaving behind a single sentence, Xia Yu and the others fled in panic; there were simply too many people.

The government representatives and others were forced by Xia Yu to remain silent, watching helplessly as the three left.

The hearing had the opposite effect.

The United States president smashed a coffee cup in front of the television in the Oval Office.

This hearing was broadcast live to media outlets worldwide, and Xia Yu once again thoroughly trampled on the already dwindling face of the United States government.

The White House is probably in complete chaos, while the other parties are probably laughing all the way to the bank. Xia Yu's actions have directly eliminated a competitor for them in the next election.

The Hydra incident, or rather the Project Insight, has already severely damaged the image of the current governments of the member states of the World Security Council.

This hearing was a case of the United States government handing itself a chance to embarrass itself, only to be thoroughly humiliated by the Avengers.

While the image and reputation of the United States government have certainly plummeted, the Avengers and their allies have achieved legendary status.

People are more willing to trust the Avengers' protection than an incompetent government.

High prestige combined with overwhelming military power, as seen in the scene where Xia Yu had Thor summon the Bifrost to destroy the Helicarrier.

In the coming years, as long as the Avengers maintain a positive image, no government will dare to defy Avengers and take any drastic actions against them.

What Xia Yu said to the reporters.

They applied to the United Nations to have the Avengers recognized as an officially recognized Hero organization to protect the world.

Regarding this matter...

Governments around the world have not yet reacted.

A strong desire has already emerged among the people.

In a random street interview conducted by a television station, 86% of respondents supported Xia Yu's proposed Avengers plan.

No one can stop the Avengers' rise on Earth.

Xia Yu and his team didn't waste any time and immediately submitted the relevant application to the United Nations.

We're just waiting for the representatives from each country to meet and vote.

It's called a vote, but everyone knows it's actually a meeting of various countries to discuss how to limit the Avengers' power to the greatest extent possible. At this stage, it's impossible to stop it; we can only try to control their power as much as possible.

Xia Yu and his group didn't care about this at all; they figured there would be plenty of ways to deal with it later.

Therefore, compared to the tense meetings within the United Nations, the atmosphere at the Avengers' meeting was incredibly relaxed and pleasant.

The base was still under reconstruction, and the group couldn't stay grounded forever, so they temporarily moved to Stark Tower.

Now.

Betty Ross, Natasha Hill, and a few other women were chatting.

Xia Yu, Tony Sol, and the other two boasted to each other about how wonderful their women were.

Honest Banner was captured by Hawkeye to work as an assistant in the open kitchen.

Hawkeye, I don't know what he saw online, insists that he has mastered superb Huaxia culinary skills, and today he's going to open everyone's eyes to a whole new level.

He even boasted that he would show Xia Yu, Tony, and the other men what the charm and powerful skills of a married, mature man really are.

No one knows how well the food turned out, but Hawkeye wielded a cleaver with incredible skill, the blade flashing and flying, creating a series of afterimages.

He managed to create countless knife flourishes while slicing just a few radishes, and every now and then he would toss the radishes into the air for a fancy aerial slice.

Especially when the ladies looked at him, the speed of their cleavers increased, as if they were wielding the Nine Swords of Dugu Nine Swords.

There's a saying that goes, "If you don't court death, you won't die."

Hawkeye, preoccupied with showing off his knife skills, finally made a mistake, and the cleaver slipped from his hand.

Unfortunately, it ended up sticking into Banner's thigh, who was washing vegetables nearby.

The cheerful atmosphere in the room vanished instantly.

The air seemed to freeze.

Everyone stared blankly at the cleaver on Banner's thigh.

Then, watching as the leg with the cleaver stuck in it grew bigger and greener, the cleaver was slowly squeezed out, and the pants were slowly torn apart, turning into underwear.

"Oh no."

"Run!"

"Xia and Thor, hurry up!"

"Clint, where the hell did you learn to cook?"

"MasterChef of Huaxia"

"Get lost."

"Roar!~!" The Hulk's signature roar echoed through Stark Tower.
