Someone Always Thinks They're Right, and Someone Always Fails to Understand

With the full support of Vought, Jupiter's approval rating continues to rise!

"it's mostly used for children. For adults, there are significant issues. Firstly, we can't guarantee that adults will definitely gain superpowers from Compound V. Secondly, we don't currently know what kind of side effects adults who gain superpowers through Compound V will experience. If we want to use it for adults, we need to improve our product, but the funds required to improve Compound V are not a small sum, and success is not guaranteed."

Starlight said softly, facing Jupiter.

"No need for improvement. If someone uses our Compound V and doesn't gain superpowers, we'll just blame that old man God!"

Jupiter said softly, with his hands behind his back.

"Good idea."

Starlight was stunned for a moment, then nodded slightly. Blaming God when something goes wrong, F*ck, that's a really good idea!

"Well, any other problems?!"

Jupiter continued to ask, his expression incredibly calm. This wasn't the DC world, after all, so there wasn't a truly omniscient, omnipotent, invincible God. Even if there were, he believed that the Almighty, upon seeing his actions aimed at racial evolution, wouldn't blame him...

"There's also the issue with The Seven. Homelander is dead. The Deep is in Po Island saving dolphins and won't be back anytime soon. As for A-Train, as you instructed, we publicly revealed his actions. The judge sentenced him for manslaughter, gave him five years in prison, and sent him to Blackgate. Currently, only Queen Maeve and Starlight are holding the fort for The Seven. It's really not enough..."

Starlight opened the file in her hand and read. 6̲9̲s̲h̲u̲x̲.̲c̲o̲m̲

"What about Black Noir!?"

Jupiter was taken aback. Homelander was dead, The Deep was saving dolphins, and A-Train was in jail. Besides these three, shouldn't there be Queen Maeve, Starlight, and Black Noir?

"Black Noir he..."

Starlight frowned, her expression somewhat helpless.

"Black Noir went to the supermarket this morning to buy milk and accidentally bought a can of almond milk..."

"He's currently in the ICU, but the good news is that he's temporarily out of danger..."

Starlight finally told Jupiter.

"F*ck..."

Jupiter was speechless. This Black Noir was truly an idiot.

"So, to fill the vacancies in The Seven, the company has recruited two brand-new superheroes: Storm and Shockwave. They will be replacing Homelander and A-Train."

Starlight flipped through the file in her hand and said.

"Alright, have them come to The Seven's hall to see me."

Jupiter nodded slightly upon hearing this. He was still a little interested in the new superheroes the company had sent. Storm, or rather, Liberty. F*ck, someone with the same name as him, and a bitchy one at that. Most importantly, this bastard had Compound V that could be adapted for adults. Jupiter hoped that Storm wouldn't be ungrateful, otherwise...

"Okay."

Starlight nodded slightly, not thinking much of it.

"Knock knock knock..."

Half an hour later, the door to the superhero conference room of The Seven was knocked on.

"Come in..."

Jupiter said without turning his head, his hands behind his back.

"Hey, Liberty..."

As Jupiter's voice fell, the door to the superhero conference room of The Seven was pushed open forcefully.

Storm and Shockwave, who often competed with A-Train for the title of the fastest man in the world, simultaneously walked through the doors of The Seven's conference room.

"Welcome, Storm and Shockwave."

Jupiter only turned around after hearing them enter, revealing a bright smile as he faced Storm and Shockwave.

"Bro, I saw the live broadcast of your fight with Homelander. You're too powerful. I dare say you're the most powerful ability user in this world, hands down!"

Shockwave immediately started flattering Jupiter.

"Heh, I guess. It's not that I'm too strong, it's that Homelander was too weak."

Jupiter chuckled. He was telling the truth. He himself wasn't that powerful, and Homelander, whom he had killed, was simply weaker.

"Uh..."

However, Jupiter's truthful words didn't register the same way with Shockwave. Homelander was already despair-inducingly invincible, yet in Jupiter's mouth, he was described as too weak?! Then what did that make them, who couldn't defeat Homelander?

"He was indeed too weak, both mentally and in terms of strength, compared to you~"

Storm lightly licked her lips and walked towards Jupiter with a feline gait, her hands restlessly stroking Jupiter's firm chest muscles.

"Shockwave, can you leave for a moment?"

Storm turned to look at Shockwave, her eyes seemingly hinting at something.

"I just..."

"Okay! Of course, no problem."

Shockwave was speechless. He had just entered and was being asked to leave?! Damn office politics, go eat shit!

"..."

Jupiter watched everything before him in silence until Shockwave left the conference room.

"Now let's talk, just the two of us, in that kind of negotiation style~"

Storm gently caressed Jupiter's chest, revealing a somewhat ambiguous smile.

"How do you want to talk to me?"

Jupiter looked at Storm with incredibly cold eyes and asked.

"I know you need Compound V that can be used by adults. I have all of that. If you want it, you must meet some conditions for me~"

Storm showed a charming smile and said softly.

"Meet some conditions for me?!"

Upon hearing this, Jupiter smiled, and at the same time, taut veins appeared on his forehead.

"There's no such thing as a free lunch in this world~"

"Of course, I only need you to share a tiny, insignificant bit of your power with me, and you can have everything I have, including this body of mine~"

Storm didn't realize at that moment what she had provoked. She looked at Jupiter's smug expression, as if she were saying...

See! The most powerful person in the world can still be tamed by her.

"What if I don't want to share anything with you?"

Jupiter tried his best to maintain a peaceful mood.

"Then you'll get nothing~"

"Neither my people nor the perfect Compound V, you'll get none of it~"

"I think you're a smart person, and you'll make the right choice."

Storm was full of confidence, believing that both her personal charm and the fact that she held the perfect Compound V for adults were things Jupiter couldn't refuse.

"Can I interpret that as a threat?"

Jupiter said with a smile.

"You can interpret it that way, but I prefer to call my request a condition for cooperation. This is a necessary condition for us to achieve a win-win situation..."

Storm smiled slightly and said softly.

"Very well."

Jupiter nodded gently. He raised his hand and slashed at Storm. The next second, a watermelon flew into the air.

In mid-air, Storm looked at her headless body, her eyes revealing the same confusion as an immortal, "Am I dead?!"

She didn't understand. Perhaps those who were immortal and possessed powerful regenerative abilities would never imagine that they too could die! They always naively believed they had conquered death, but in reality, death was just too busy and had temporarily forgotten them. When death remembered them, they would die as they should...

"Why do some people never understand that I don't like being threatened?!"

"As for you wanting to talk about cooperation? Who gave you the courage to be so arrogant, thinking you have the ability to negotiate with me? Take a good look at yourself, are you worthy?"

Jupiter held a tissue, gently wiping the blood from his gloves. Jupiter felt helpless as to why there were always idiots in this world who wanted to threaten those they absolutely shouldn't, not knowing that the price of provoking a wild beast was often their own life?!
