Mr. Shazo, You Wouldn't Want...

Director Fury also has his own sources of confidence, such as the Skrulls and Captain Marvel.

However, he couldn't be sure whether the Skrulls and Captain Marvel would be wary of Shazo's identity. Even if they weren't, they could only retaliate afterward, but they couldn't prevent his own death.

Nick Fury didn't want to die, so he remained polite and courteous throughout, trying to subtly indicate that he would conduct surveillance in a restrained manner.

Shazo frowned and asked, "Surveillance—do you mean you want to watch me like Monkey?"

Nick Fury quickly forced a smile and tried to explain, "No, the surveillance won't penetrate your life; at most, it will only reach the walls of your villa."

"It's not about believing Mr. Shazo, but about proving his Shazo."

"Mr. Shazo, you wouldn't want others to frame you for crimes without being able to find evidence to prove your innocence, would you?"

Nick Fury's explanation had the opposite effect; Shazo seemed to have been provoked and suddenly changed his expression.

He sneered, "Proof of my innocence—hmph, Nick Fury, do you think I need it?"

"Non- Nick Fury? MotherFu----"

Nick Fury's anger nearly overwhelmed his reason, almost turning him into "Fuck You" hero.

Veins bulged on his forehead, his eyes were bloodshot, and he used all his strength to suppress his anger.

Then he forced a smile again, "Hehe, hehe, no need, actually no need."

"But I know that Mr. Shazo actually wants to live a peaceful life, so you have to do something to put your friends at ease, don't you think?"

Shazo thought for a moment and nodded, "You're right, that's indeed the point."

"Go ahead and spy if you want; there's no need to rigidly confine us outside the walls."

"But you need to remember to keep your distance. If your men are capable enough to monitor my bedroom without me noticing, then you're truly impressive."

"But if you go too far and I find out, I'll make trouble for you."

"Nick Fury, the trouble I'm causing you is completely different from how other people cause you trouble. You definitely don't want to experience it a second time."

Shazo gave Fury a deep look, Setsuna making this conspiracy theorist experience several lives, such as running naked in the street or revealing a level 10 secret.

The most terrifying thing is that he harassed five members of the World Security Council, regardless of gender.

In an instant, Nick Fury's back was soaked with sweat.

He ignored his new nickname and repeatedly assured that he would not cross the line.

When Shazo offered to have the Punisher as his butler in exchange for being monitored, Nick Fury sold Frank without hesitation.

There was no need for Shazo to do anything himself; Director Fury took matters into his own hands, using his status as an old friend and comrade-in-arms to lure and Punisher, tie him up, and deliver him to Shazo's villa.

Nick Fury wasn't worried about Frank's awkward personality; he believed Shazo would handle it, and he was even relieved for his old comrade Frank.

For Frank, gaining Shazo's favor and protection was a good thing.

First, Frank's life was guaranteed; he would not be attacked by gangsters again, like last time, and would not have almost died in the street.

Secondly, Nick Fury had great confidence in Shazo's abilities. He believed that Shazo could correct Frank's twisted Mind Stone, free him from the torment of hatred, and restore him to a normal life.

At least, let's stop living that miserable life of constant killing, devoid of any happiness.

Just one day later, Frank put on a neat tailcoat, tidied his hair, eyebrows, and beard, and began to take on the role of Shazo's butler.

But Frank's main responsibility was to make full use of his connections to contact various Powerful Agencies within United States for Xia Shazo.

Frank did an excellent job, helping Shazo expand his network while also greatly strengthening his own connections and status.

The only problem is that when he can't sleep at night, he needs to receive the "Iron Fist" training and hypnotic therapy from Master Shazo.

The psychological distortion caused by hatred is not so easy to correct.

Stark Industries has finally reached an agreement with the established energy giant to launch the Arc Reactor.

It wasn't the kind of miniature reactor embedded in his chest, but a small reactor with a diameter of 6 meters, capable of supplying the electricity consumption of an entire Skyscraper, and also safer and cleaner.

The advent of nuclear fusion has solved the major problem of outdated infrastructure at the United States.

The power grid, supposedly a century-old institution, is riddled with problems. Whether it's wind, rain, or even Little Bird strike, it can cause widespread power outages.

Today, a stable and reliable power supply can be obtained simply by installing an Arc Reactor on the roof or in the basement, consuming only a few hundred grams of palladium and 110 kilograms of deuterium fuel per year.

The cost of fuel and consumables was less than one million dollars, and the savings came entirely from the reduced grid maintenance fees.

Stark Industries ' stock price soared, and even continuous rights issues and share issuances could not suppress its explosive upward momentum.

This situation exceeded Shazo's expectations, because it meant that Stark Industries had received joint support from the energy, infrastructure, and military industries, and the pool of profits it could extract had increased several hundred times.

Shazo's earnings did not double from 4.2 billion, but doubled again and again, a super doubling, breaking through the 30 billion mark in one fell swoop.

Even the IRS is now baffled.

The IRS New York State Director personally visited Shazo's Long Island villa to discuss tax issues and how to use charitable funds for tax avoidance.

Despite the IRS's ruthless tax collection practices, they do prioritize tasks effectively.

The IRS shows absolutely no mercy to mob bosses like Capone. They'll find even the smallest charge, drive an armored vehicle into his home, and arrest him.

The IRS will negotiate politely with the Coca-Cola Company, but ultimately it will inevitably take a large slice of the pie.

However, they never target giants like Thor, Lockheed Martin, General Dynamics, Boeing, and Northrop Grumman. Even when discussing tax rates, they would never make things difficult for these Bigwigs.

Shazo is not a military tycoon, nor does he control any military forces, but he is terrifying in himself.

Not all of the private soldiers who witnessed Kingpin's death died before the building collapsed.

Many talented and extraordinary individuals successfully escaped using various methods.

They belong to all sorts of strange organizations, including conglomerates, the military, Hydra, and S.H.I.E.L.D.., and the bigwigs from all sides saw the video of the scene.

The Bigwigs discovered that although Shazo arrived extremely quickly, they could still find Silk, but when he left, he was absolutely invisible, seemingly due to some kind of spatial ability.

During the subsequent rescue operation, S.H.I.E.L.D.. obtained Kingpin's body and confirmed that the cause Kingpin death was asphyxiation, which resulted in comminuted fractures of all his bones.

What's frightening is that Kingpin fracture was literally a fracture.

It wasn't like a bone breaking into seventeen or eighteen pieces in medical terms; it was completely pulverized into bone powder, like it had been Shattering by an electric grinder.

Furthermore, military investigations confirmed that there were no explosive remnants at the site of the building's collapse.

Such a large building, militarized and comparable to a military fortress, was destroyed by an unknown force.

With super speed, super strength, suspected spatial teleportation ability, and an uncertain destructive power, Shazo possesses four abilities in one person, making him a formidable opponent for all sides.

The key is Shazo's combination of abilities, which seems capable of breaking through any defense system and directly threatening the life of the big boss himself.

The danger level of Shazo far exceeds that of bombers, Tank, and aircraft carriers, and it is even more deadly than nuclear bombs.

At this moment, everyone realized that Shazo had excellent investment acumen, and while he adhered to public order and good morals, he did not rigidly follow the law, perfectly embodying the characteristics of the top elite society.

Ah, that's good. If everyone accepts Shazo joining the top circle and makes him one of their own, then it won't be so dangerous.

Now that you've joined the group, you'll receive corresponding benefits.

Lolita Island and such are personal hobbies; no one would proactively offer Shazo services, but paying taxes is a different story.

We're part of the elite society, living off the taxes of the poor; why should we pay our own taxes?

Of course, the necessary procedures still need to be followed, and the necessary cover-ups are also essential.

For example, the Rockefeller Family's land stretches for hundreds of kilometers, with mountains, forests, oil, and mineral deposits, but the value of the land is shockingly low. The annual property taxes they pay are less than those for a villa in New York.

Regardless, all citizens have to pay taxes.

After collecting the money, the Bigwigs naturally want to get their own money back, and then they can also take a cut from the taxes paid by ordinary people.

As Xia Zuo listened to the IRS's account and explanation, Shazo clicked his tongue in amazement.

"Let the Bullets Fly" is a true classic. The so-called nouveau riche and tycoons are not fundamentally different.

Shazo thought this to himself, but on the surface, he chatted and laughed with the guests and gladly accepted their arrangements, saving 16 billion in taxes.

Now that his position has changed, and he lacks any sense of responsibility towards the United States, why shouldn't he enjoy the benefits that are rightfully his?

The next day, Shazo returned to the police station after his leave, but his superior bowed respectfully to him.

It turned out that Shazo's superior's superior's superior suddenly remembered all the merits Shazo had made in the past, and after recalculating, promoted Shazo's police rank by two levels.

Therefore, Shazo is now Senior Chief Inspector wearing Eagle Insignia, while his superior is only Deputy Senior Chief Inspector, so naturally he has to bow to him in return.

According to regulations, Shazo could no longer participate in street patrols, so he was temporarily assigned to the ESU unit as an honorary unit commander.

This is a position that is particularly suitable for Shazo. It is not only prestigious, but also leisurely, and he does not have to bear any responsibility at all.

When the mood strikes, you can even join the most intense battles at any time.

Perfect!

Just as Shazo was enjoying the pinnacle of his life, an unprecedented change suddenly occurred in New York.

Thanks to Skye's warning from school and the reckless filming by journalists, Shazo witnessed a fierce robot battle at home.

With just one glance, Shazo knew what was going on.

Of the two robots, one large and one small, the smaller, more slender one is designed to perfectly conform to the Human Body's contours; it's clearly Exoskeleton Armor rather than a humanoid robot.

With its flamboyant gold and red color scheme, even someone as young as Shazo would know that it's Tony Stark's Mark I.

The larger Mecha, with its heavy armor and robust weapons, completely lacked the feel of an exoskeleton, exuding instead the solid and sturdy nature of the Astartes.

This was the battle that made Iron Man famous!

Shazo watched TV intently.

The journalists were incredibly persistent, urging the helicopter pilot to get closer, until they were almost face-to-face.

The cameraman set up the largest magnifying lens and captured a very clear image.

Although the footage was somewhat shaky and the reporter's narration was heavily interfered with by the propellers, no audience member complained.

Such an exciting battle, to be able to see it so clearly, it's absolutely worth it.

Suddenly Shazo clicked his tongue and muttered, "That's strange. Obadiah Tony seems to have a better chance of winning than Tony Stark. After all, he's more like Astartes."

Shazo's soliloquy was heard by Skye, hundreds of kilometers away, through a chat application on her mobile phone.

The girl asked in surprise, "Boss, you mean the one hiding inside the gold and red Mecha is Tony Stark?"

Shazo replied, "Of course it's Tony Stark. Who else would use such a flashy color combination as red and gold?"

Skye was speechless; she also felt that this explanation was impeccable.

Tony Stark absolutely loves gold and bright red.

His sports cars, motorcycles, and race cars all feature this color scheme, and even half of his private jets and yachts share this color scheme.

Skye thought for a moment, then asked, "Uh, boss, who is Obadiah Stane?"

Shazo replied, "Obadiah Stein is a friend of Tony's father, Howard. He co-founded Stark Industries with Howard Stark and was the elder who took care of Tony as he grew up. He is also the CEO of Stark Industries."

The girl couldn't understand. "So Obadiah is Tony's elder, and he takes good care of him, so why did they fight?"

Shazo Zuo chuckled and said, "On the surface, it's a clash of their business philosophies, but I think it's actually Tony Stark's capriciousness that put too much mental pressure on Obadiah. As a result, the old man felt it was unfair, and then he went crazy."

Shazo's nonsense made the girl giggle, but she also understood that behind this Mecha battle was actually an ethical dispute within the Stark Family.

She asked excitedly, "And what is Astartes?"

Shazo replied, "Astartes is the name of a future Space Marine in a certain world, a powerful Mecha known as invincible across planets."

Suddenly, Skye exclaimed, "Wow! It's amazing!"

Suddenly, a missile was launched from the massive Iron Monger, which Iron Man kicked away and sent it hurtling towards the camera helicopter.

Fortunately, the pilot was incredibly skilled and narrowly avoided the missile.

The missile that grazed past the screen startled countless viewers in front of their televisions, causing them to scream in terror.

I have no idea how terrified the reporters and photographers who faced such danger were.
