Faced with Alvin's resolute expression, Nick Fury gave a derisive smile and said, "What can you do?

Find Alexander Pierce and use your Battle Axe to make him confess?

Did I ever tell you that he's a Nobel Peace Prize nominee, and the chairman of the World Security Council?

Without evidence, forcing him to confess would only make you the common enemy of his entire class.

Maybe they can't do anything to you, but the outcome wouldn't be any different in substance from you attacking S.H.I.E.L.D. directly."

Nick Fury gave another derisive smile, then said gravely, "You can use your Battle Axe to get whatever you want, but you'd better be ready to face the consequences.

Maybe no one on Earth can beat you, but what do you think will happen when everyone sees you as an outsider?

They're afraid of you, but that doesn't mean they're completely powerless against you!

That kid, Peter Parker, and all those people in Hell's Kitchen—your friends and family—have put themselves in the public eye because of you. What do you think will happen to them when you're isolated?

Unless you choose to become a dictator, someone like Red Skull, and make the world tremble beneath your Battle Axe, who among your friends would still stand by you?

Alvin, it's your principles that have earned you everyone's respect!

How hard do you think it would be for those powerful people to smear you in this day and age?

It could be a television program, a post on Facebook, maybe...

Most people are ignorant. They don't know how to find the truth in what the media tells them. When the time comes, they'll burn you at the stake just as they did Galileo!

What can you do? Why take the risk?

You don't even care
