With a flick of Peter's wrist, Killian was lifted up and thrown away, falling heavily into the sea.
With the fall of Killian, the remaining Extremis Soldier were quickly subdued using the gene suppression handcuffs developed by Reed. The Mandarin and Killian were the first batch to be put on the transport plane of S.H.I.E.L.D..
"Good job, Spider." Susan came over and wiped the sweat from his forehead.
Johnny came close to Qin and winked. "Hi, red-haired beauty, we meet again."
Qin raised her eyebrows. "Johnny, I remember you seem to have a girlfriend, right? Is it appropriate to tease other girls like this?"
Johnny laughed awkwardly, "Ahem, I believe she will understand..."
Peter patted Johnny on the shoulder and added the attack with a smile, "Johnny, by the way, I would like to remind you that Qin and Liz are best friends."
Johnny's smile froze instantly.
"Are you dating Liz?!" Qin's eyes widened, "That damn girl didn't even tell me! Johnny Stone, if you dare to break her heart, I promise to screw you up!"
Johnny swallowed. "Yes..."
With a clear sound, Kurt reappeared in front of everyone with President Ellis.
"That's amazing," the President exclaimed, "Can you teleport anywhere?"
"Of course! As long as I know the place!" Kurt replied happily, completely unaware of what his words meant in the eyes of politicians.
Peter took a step forward and stood in front of Kurt: "Mr. President, are you considering conducting illegal human research on a United States citizen?"
President Ellis laughed dryly, "How could it be possible? Of course not."
"That's good." Peter pointed to the uniform Mutants team on the side, "Sir, these are X-Men. They are a group of young people who are learning to control their abilities. In the future, they will become an important force in protecting this country."
The president nodded. "Today... thank you very much."
Evan suddenly suggested. "Isn't this worth celebrating? Let's take a photo!"
Peter took out his mobile phone. "Come on, everyone, come closer!"
Fantastic Four stood on the left of the president, X-Men stood on the right, and Peter stood on the edge holding up their mobile phones. Everyone looked at the camera, and even the president smiled.
"Shouting slogan: Extremis Virus is really rubbish!" Peter shouted.
"Extremis Virus is really rubbish!" everyone said in unison.

Peter conveniently posted this group photo online with the text: [Spider-Man is back with a new superhero team! #X-Men #Fantastic Four #USA!]
Within a few minutes, Twitter was paralyzed.
[Oh my god! Spider-Man is really back!]
[Holy shit! Why are these superhero girls so hot?!]
[Who is X-Men? Why are they all covering their faces?]
After cleaning the battlefield, everyone left. Fantastic Four returned on S.H.I.E.L.D.'s plane, and X-Men left on Blackbird. Before leaving, Qin said that he would contact Peter in a few days to discuss his return to his position as a hero.
Peter counted the losses and found that only six of the fifteen suits he brought were intact. He bid farewell to S.H.I.E.L.D. and boarded the speed car with the remaining suits.
The location of Tony has reached Seattle. Peter dialed the communication, first reported the news that the president was safe, and then asked about the situation of Pepper and Riri.
"They were all rescued." Tony's voice was exhausted, "They kidnapped them just to lure me away from the Mandarin. I'm afraid until a few days ago, they thought you were dead and didn't even count you."
"Were they not injured?"
"Pepper was just frightened. Riri... Her mother just died and it was hard for her to accept it."
Peter was silent for a while, promised to attend Maya's funeral in a few days, and sent the remaining uniforms back to Tony's home, before dragging his exhausted body back to rest.
Three days later, Chicago in the suburbs.
Maya Hansen was buried in the town where she was born. The funeral was very simple, with only about twenty people in attendance.
Tony and Pepper helped organize the entire funeral. Peter was wearing a black suit and stood quietly at the back of the crowd.
In front of the tombstone, twelve-year-old Riri Williams was wearing a black dress and holding a white flower in her hand. She gently placed the flower on her mother's coffin, her eyes terrifyingly empty.
This kind of severe pain and despair of losing a loved one should never appear on the face of a twelve-year-old child.
Everyone left one after another, but Riri still stood in front of the tombstone in a daze.
Peter slowly walked forward and stood beside her. "Riri, you and I are actually very similar."
Riri turned his head and said in a dry voice, "Who are you?"
Peter took off his sunglasses and showed a gentle smile, "Can't you tell by the sound?"
Riri was stunned for a moment, a flash of shock flashed in his big eyes. "You... you are much younger than I thought."
"Everyone said that." Peter turned to look at the inscription 'Mother, Scientist, Beloved' on the tombstone.
"How do we resemble each other?" Riri said softly.
"When I was four years old, my mother also passed away." Peter said softly.
"That's different."
"I know," Peter nodded slightly, "But she was involved in danger because she mastered a certain secret formula... just like Captain America. Those villains hunted down my parents and took away my father, thinking that my mother was worthless. But they didn't know that the person who really cracked the formula was my mother."
"Then my mother died, and my father was held like a slave for fifteen years. He escaped only recently... I face him now, and I don't even know how to get along with him."
Riri listened quietly.
"Your mother sacrificed her life to protect you. This is cruel, but this is a heavy love. Riri, sadness is allowed, keep this pain in your heart, but don't let it devour you, don't let it determine your life. If a person is forever addicted to pain, no matter how kind a person is, he will become twisted."
"Live well and live a life that makes your mother proud... By the way, give your clumsy father a chance." Peter grinned, "He might surprise you."
