Chapter 929: The Gathering of Giants (5,000-Word Chapter, Please Vote)
In the end, at Steve's suggestion, except for Dr. Bruce Banner who refused to take action, the other members of the Avengers all agreed.
Two Quinjets took off from the Avengers base and headed straight for Coulson's playground base.
One of the fighter planes was full of members of the Avengers, and the other fighter plane was headed by Peggy Carter, including Robert Gonzalez, Weaver, Agent Calderon, and Agent Sidney. , Hartley and other agents.
Robert Gonzalez asked:
"Chief Carter, if we go there with such a big fanfare, will Coulson be captured without mercy?"
"It's better to let my two agents in their base, as agents, directly raid their base."
Peggy Carter shook her head and said:
"It's not necessary."
"This time, we need to meet and communicate openly."
"Believe me, Coulson can't afford any trouble."
On another fighter plane.
Tony Stark spoke:
"Steve, is it too much of a fanfare?"
"For a group of us to go to meet him, Coulson, isn't it too honorable for him?"
"Shouldn't it be a phone call to call him directly?"
Sol on the side said indifferently:
"Colson is a good man and a friend of ours."
"It would be good to meet him together and find out what he is up to."
"I don't want to hear any bad news."
Natasha and Hawkeye Barton looked at each other and smiled:
"It just so happens that I haven't seen Coulson for a long time, so it's just a good time to give him a surprise."
"Do you think this guy dares to attack us?"
Tony said disdainfully:
"Give him ten courages. If he dares to take action, I will dismantle his base."
······
Soon the Quinjet arrived over the playground base.
At this time, the base's radar room also detected two Quinjet fighters in the sky, but the models of the fighters were not entered into the base's system.
In Colson's office, Mei walked in and reported:
"Colson, there are two Quinjets coming above the base, and these two are not from our base."
Hearing this, Coulson stood up and walked towards the radar room.
After entering the radar room, Coulson asked:
"What's the situation now?"
At this time, an agent stood up and reported:
"Sir, we are in contact with them."
At this moment, Natasha answered the communication request from the base.
"I'm Natasha from the Avengers, requesting to land at this moment!"
At this time, Stark's voice also sounded:
"Colson, open the hangar quickly, we need to land."
"Otherwise I would just fly down from above."
Coulson was stunned for a moment when he heard Tony Stark's voice, but before he could speak, he heard the captain's voice.
"Colson, this is Steve Rogers."
"We have something we need to talk to you about."
Colson saw this and said:
"Welcome everyone!"
After Colson said something, he immediately ordered:
"Open the hangar and let them land."
After the instructions were completed, Colson walked out, and Mei beside him asked:
"Why are Steve and the others here?"
Colson shrugged his shoulders and then said:
"I don't know either."
"I don't even know who told them I was alive."
Soon the grass on the ground opened to reveal the hangar hidden underground.
Two Quinjets landed, and then everyone got off the plane.
The door to the playground base opened, and Coulson took Mei to greet him. Everyone who saw them came out was surprised. Why was Robert Gonzalez, whom he was looking for before, also here, as well as Agent Weaver from SHIELD Academy? Waiting for some senior agents.
Wait, why does this lady look so familiar?
Then he looked at Steve Rogers, and he was shocked and thought to himself, could it be that one?
At this time, although Colson was shocked in his heart, he still stepped forward to welcome him:
"Welcome everyone."
Steve said:
"Colson, we have something to talk about, take us to the conference room."
Colson nodded and then said:
"Everyone, come with me."
Everyone followed Coulson in. Along the way, the agents in the base were excited to see the members of the Avengers.
Thor patted Colson on the shoulder and said with a smile:
"Man, that's good news you're alive."
Colson smiled and quickly led everyone into the conference room.
At this time, everyone in the Avengers found a seat to work on, and Steve Rogers also sat down.
However, Steve's agents, headed by Peggy Carter, did not sit down together.
Peggy Carter I spoke:
"Agent Coulson, I am Peggy Carter, one of the founders of S.H.I.E.L.D."
"I think you must have recognized me."
At this time, outside the conference room, Simmons, Fitz, Plitt and other agents all ran over, and everyone was very curious about the Avengers.
For Plitt, what he cares more about is Steve Rogers. His grandfather was once a member of the Howling Commandos, and the captain was his idol since he was a child. He could grow up listening to the captain's stories.
Colson nodded and then said:
"You are one of the founders of SHIELD and we have all studied your history."
Mei on the side was also surprised. She didn't expect that this person had regained his youth, and it seemed that he had come out of retirement again.
Peggy Carter nodded, and then said:
"Now that you know who I am, the next communication will be much simpler."
"Robert Gonzalez told me you were looking for him all over the world."
"Can you tell me the reason?"
"And the so-called Theta Protocol?"
Looking at Peggy Carter's question, Colson thought for a moment and then said:
"I can't tell you what Theta Protocol is. This is something only the director can know."
"But I can tell you why I went to Robert Gonzalez."
At this time, Robert Gonzalez took a step forward and said in a strong voice:
"Colson, you are no longer the excellent agent I knew before. You were transformed by Fury with alien blood. You act radically and want to continue to act according to Nick Fury's outdated ideas, so you Not qualified to be the director of S.H.I.E.L.D.”
Colson smiled:
"Then who do you think can become the director, is it you?"
Robert Gonzalez shook his head and said:
"It wasn't me. We decided to return to the leadership of Agent Peggy Carter and elect her to be the director of S.H.I.E.L.D."
Hearing the other party's words, Coulson glanced at Peggy Carter.
As one of the founders of SHIELD, would he be able to lead SHIELD better if he stood up?
After Coulson was silent for a moment, he said:
"If it's Agent Carter, I don't have any problem with it."
"But my appointment, after all, was personally appointed by Nick Fury. It is not a good decision to abdicate like this."
"The world has changed so much in recent years that I am no longer sure. It is a good principle to hand it over like this."
Robert Gonzalez was about to say something at this time, but Peggy Carter interrupted:
"We can talk about the position of director later."
"But you can first explain why the world is looking for Robert Gonzalez."
"This should be the second time you mobilize manpower and material resources to find him."
Colson said at this time:
"Yes, this is the second time."
"After SHIELD fell, I used a lot of resources and agents to find him, but I didn't expect that we would meet like this."
"As for the willingness to find him this time, it is because of Charlotte Doyle."
After hearing this name, the Avengers who didn't care about it at first became interested, and Tony Stark even asked:
"How does this matter have anything to do with Charlotte?"
Under the eyes of everyone, Colson explained:
"Some time ago, Charlotte Doyle contacted me and asked if Robert Gonzalez was with me."
"Because Robert Gonzalez wasn't here, I told Charlotte, and she hung up the phone when she found out you weren't here."
"Although Charlotte didn't ask anything, she told me you were still alive."
"And I suspect that Charlotte may be very interested in the things you hide in the cargo bay of the mothership."
Robert Gonzalez asked doubtfully:
"How did you know?"
Coulson casually took out the cube toolbox he was carrying, and then said:
"This is the toolbox that Nick Fury left for me to rebuild S.H.I.E.L.D., and it contains your information."
At this time, Thor said:
"Charlotte is indeed very interested in some items. Of course, if that item is not particularly important to you, I suggest exchanging it with him. I don't think he will be stingy."
Tony also nodded and said:
"Saul's suggestion is a good approach. At least Charlotte is a fair deal."
Robert Gonzalez said:
"This is our thing."
Colson said:
"No one decides who owns that item, they're just a suggestion."
"But I believe that if Charlotte Doyle really comes for that item, you will not refuse his offer in the end."
"Of course, if you have a better way to use that item, you can keep it."
Robert Gonzalez looked at Peggy Carter. They all knew that item, but they had not yet found out what it was.
At this time, Colson continued to speak:
"There are people who are unhappy with my position, but here's what I want to say."
"Our goal is to destroy Hydra for our common goal."
"Baron Strucker and Lister have been conducting experiments on extraordinary beings."
"They set up a base in the North Pole, and I had an insider who told us the location."
Peggy Carter said:
"We don't trust you."
Colson said:
"Then believe in the mission, we all have one thing in common, which is to stop Hydra."
"Isn't it?"
Peggy Carter nodded. She came out again this time, firstly to help Steve Rogers, and secondly to completely eliminate Hydra.
Colson continued:
"They are conducting human experiments and we can stop them and save lives."
"And I don't think they only have this one base."
"I have sent a team to go there in a Quinjet and obtain the intelligence inside."
"I believe that soon, the information we get from there will allow us to give Hydra a big one and completely destroy them."
Hearing that Coulson had sent people there, no one said much. As for what information could be obtained there, it would depend on what kind of answer Coulson gave in the end.
"I have a new proposal."
"We work together!"
"Peggy Carter is the chief and I'm the deputy chief."
"If everyone is not at ease about some of my secrets, then Peggy Carter, as my boss and my supervisor, can understand whether my behavior is dangerous."
"I have a secret underground base, and you have an aircraft carrier as a sea base."
"We merge, it's going to be a cool thing."
At the same time, Coulson looked at Steve Rogers. He knew that Peggy Carter's lover was Steve, and Steve could leverage the entire Avengers.
As for the position of director, Coulson is not a power-hungry person, and the previous director, Nick Furyco, is still alive and well.
Upon hearing Coulson's suggestion, the SHIELD agents present were stunned. Peggy Carter thought for a moment and then stretched out her palm and said:
"Welcome, Deputy Director Agent Coulson."
Seeing Peggy Carter agree, the five senior SHIELD agents behind her didn't have any objections.
At this time, Colson held Peggy Carter's hand and said with a smile:
"Perhaps, we can think about how to deal with the thing in the mothership's cargo warehouse next."
Peggy Carter looked at the toolbox in Colson's hand, and then asked:
"Can you let me see what's in there?"
Coulson did not refuse and directly unlocked the fingerprint and placed it on the table.
"Okay, I've unlocked it."
"You can use it to completely understand everything about S.H.I.E.L.D. right now."
"By the way, when Nick Fury comes back, this thing will most likely be returned to him."
Peggy Carter knew that Nick Fury was still alive and said indifferently:
"He wants it, and you just have to pay him back when the time comes. I just need to use it to understand the current situation of SHIELD."
However, the five senior SHIELD agents behind Peggy Carter were stunned for a moment, and Robert Gonzalez even asked in surprise:
"Nick Fury is still alive?"
Steve nodded:
"Yes, it was him and Natasha who foiled Sitwell's conspiracy at the Trident Building."
Natasha said at this time:
"No, there is also Serena under Charlotte Doyle. Without her help, I might not have been able to stop Hit Hall at that time."
Steve nodded and said:
"Yes, his help is important."
Colson said at this time:
"Charlotte once asked me to inform him as soon as possible if I find out about Robert Gonzalez."
"Everyone, what should we do now?"
Looking at Colson's gaze, Peggy Carter thought for a moment, and then asked:
"Can anything be researched on that item in a short time?"
Robert Gonzalez shook his head and said:
"Sir, we haven't gotten any useful information yet."
"Perhaps we can understand it through research in the future, but it will be difficult to get anything in a short period of time."
Peggy Carter glanced at the people in the conference room. There were agents of SHIELD and even the Avengers. This was a good time to talk to Charlotte Doyle.
Peggy Carter said:
"Colson, contact him."
"By the way, what exactly does he have in mind?"
Hearing this, Coulson smiled, then took out his cell phone and called Charlotte Doyle directly.
"Mr. Charlotte, Robert Gonzalez is currently with me. I wonder what you want to see him for?"
At this time, on the other side, Charlotte looked at the people around Colson through holographic communication and said in surprise:
"Colson, there are quite a lot of people here."
"In this way, tell me the coordinates and let's talk face to face."
Coulson looked at Peggy Carter aside, and with the other's nod of agreement, Coulson told Charlotte the coordinates of the base's location.
The next second, a space-time wormhole suddenly appeared in the conference room, and Charlotte walked in from the other side.
"Everyone is here."
"Hahaha, Sol, why don't you go and accompany Jane?"
Sol smiled and said:
"Jian is now running around the world, conducting her scientific research experiments, and even I can't disturb him."
Charlotte smiled, then stepped forward to give Tony a hug, and then said with a smile:
"Can you tell me what happened? Why are so many of you gathered here?"
Tony smiled and then said:
"We're here to help Steve's lover, Peggy Carter."
Charlotte looked at Peggy Carter on the side. Sure enough, she regained her youth through the physical enhancer. She still looked very beautiful. No wonder Steve couldn't forget Peggy.
"Hello, Agent Carter, I have heard about your love story with Steve."
"Your perseverance over the years is very touching."
Peggy Carter also smiled and said:
"Thank you very much for the physical enhancer you developed, which gave me the opportunity to renew my relationship with Steve."
At this time, Coulson said:
"Mr. Charlotte, this is Robert Gonzalez you asked about before."
Charlotte looked at the man introduced by Coulson. The agent had gray hair and was leaning on a cane. He looked quite old.
Robert Gonzalez looked at Charlotte Doyle and asked:
"I don't know what Mr. Charlotte wants to talk to me about through Coulson?"
