Chapter 165 Toby, who was hailed as a saint, met his match...
However, Odin has now left with the army of the gods, and New York is no longer under the control of the gods' army, but has returned to the jurisdiction of the United States.
But only the top brass in the United States knew that all of this was just a facade...
Yesterday's battle not only showed them how powerful Asgard was, easily annihilating the invading alien army, but also casually blowing up their mothership in outer space.
They understood even more clearly that the Asgardians' help in eliminating the invading Chitauri was not out of goodwill towards humanity, but purely for the sake of saving face for one person.
And that person's identity was no secret among the upper echelons of the United States; it was...
The leader of the Spider Family, the world's number one superhero organization; hailed as the most powerful superhero in the world; and the head of Parker Industries, one of the world's top corporations...
Toby Parker, the "Spider"!
That's right, Toby's identity has actually been exposed to some extent.
It's no secret, at least among the upper echelons of humanity...
From the moment he founded Parker Industries, from the moment he openly saved Gwen at school, from the moment his striking height and build closely resembled that of the Spider-Man...
Anyone with a keen eye can easily conclude that Toby is a venomous spider after conducting an investigation.
Especially considering that Toby killed so many cabinet members in New York yesterday in this universe, the top brass of the United States almost thought that the Spider had completely lost control, so they sent troops stationed outside New York to take advantage of the situation and kill this potential threat.
But unexpectedly, before the army even entered the city, the army, along with the military base where it was dispatched, was blown up by Asgard's Rainbow Bridge.
So when Toby returned from another universe, he discovered that the American government not only didn't give him any trouble for eating chocolate, but was even praising the Spider Family's contributions in the Battle of New York!
Especially Toby himself, the "spider," was practically hailed as a saint in the newspapers!
The 'Spider-Man' is Jesus incarnate, a superhero surpassing Captain America, a beacon of humanity, and possesses a heart of gold—these accolades are bestowed upon Toby one after another!
When Toby came back and saw the news, he was completely stunned.
However, he quickly figured out what those politicians were up to.
It's simply because they value his hard power and the forces behind him. Since they can't kill or control him, they've started to elevate him to the highest level.
The higher one is praised and the more positive accolades one receives, the more constraints one faces, and the less daring one becomes to act recklessly as before.
They wanted to elevate Toby to a moral high ground and use morality to "kidnap" him!
Of course, this is just the thinking of those foolish politicians who are just ordinary people...
As a superhuman among superhumans, will Toby be subject to greater constraints the higher he is praised?
Of course not. He'll only expand his territory as his power grows. The higher his reputation, the more he can control!
Therefore, the petty schemes of those foolish politicians are doomed to fail. Unlike Homelander, he will not be bound by his own reputation.
However, this is actually not bad. At least we don't have to hire public relations to maintain the image of the Spider family ourselves. The official team will help beautify it.
For example, during the Battle of New York, all the newspapers only mentioned the huge contributions made by the Spider Family, but the news that Gwen accidentally killed a black man and Toby "accidentally" killed almost an entire criminal gang of black men in Green District was not reported at all.
It's as if the tens of thousands of Black men who died never existed in this global economic center...
This is naturally thanks to the FBI for silencing the families of the "victims" and the witnesses.
In the Marvel universe where superpowers abound, the FBI may not be very effective against superpowered individuals, but it is still extremely intimidating to ordinary people.
Toby returned earlier than he had expected, and since the Spider Family's reputation was officially "maintained," he didn't need to deal with it.
In addition, he wanted to cultivate the autonomy of the spider family, so although he returned, he didn't immediately announce his return, but instead went to the other side of the world...
Eastern Europe.......
In a slum in Sokovia, a young, attractive couple mingles with a crowd of protesters, holding signs and protesting their government's incompetence, which has led to their homelessness and the destruction of their family.
The pair of men and women who stood out in the crowd were none other than the Maximov siblings, Pietro and Wanda, before they gained their powers.
But what the two siblings didn't notice was that on a building above them, there was also a handsome man and a beautiful woman standing.
And the woman's appearance is strikingly similar to Wanda below!
And she is naturally Wanda from another universe, a powerful Scarlet Witch who has awakened the power of chaos and has awakened it to the point that she can tear Thanos apart with her bare hands!
Wanda looked down at her "brother," and the ashes in her eyes, which had been filled with the death of all her family, began to rekindle, replaced by a tear full of hope: "Brother..."
The man beside Wanda wasn't her brother Pietro from another universe, because the Pietro from that universe had already gone to cosplay as a lotus root, which was covered in holes!
The person who came was Toby, who had accompanied Wanda.
As a "local," Toby naturally had no reason to let Wanda from another universe run around freely on his own Earth.
After all, this Wanda is a game-changer for almost all superpowered people and humans on Earth, except for herself!
If he doesn't keep an eye on things, and someone angers this woman, there could be big trouble.
and.......
It's time for him to bring Wanda back to this universe!
Coincidentally, he also found a teacher from another universe who understands Wanda extremely well, enabling her to awaken early and become stronger as soon as possible...
The reason Toby was so eager to recruit Wanda from this universe and make her stronger was naturally because when he first obtained the six gems, he entered that strange illusion and saw the Heirs race shown to him by the tricolor spider.
Although Toby is self-reliant, he is not arrogant, and he would never prepare to deal with the entire Heir family alone.
So, his purpose in returning this time is to begin gathering some of the truly powerful superhumans in the Marvel Universe!
And his first target was the Scarlet Witch of his universe!
After Wanda, he will go and summon another magical genius, our medical savior, Dr. Strange!
After Strange, the third one is...
"You mean, you're all here to apply to become members of the Spider Family?"
"That's right!" x2
"But... putting aside whether the Spider Family actually hires from the public, aren't you in the wrong place? This isn't the Spider Family headquarters, it's... the headquarters of Parker Industries!"
Felicia, Natasha's assistant, couldn't help but twitch as she looked at the two "perverts" in front of her, one in red and one in blue, dressed in tight-fitting clothes and wearing hoods. Her hand was already subtly moving towards the red alarm button under the table.
The moment she pressed the button, Valkyrie, the security chief of Parker Industries, would rush over and throw those two perverts dressed as Spider-Man and Captain America out!
Upon hearing Felicia's words, Captain America and Deadpool stared at each other, pointing their fingers at each other's noses in unison, and said, "Damn it, it's all because of you, you damn imposter, that you ruined my good time!"
Deadpool, listening to the other person's greeting, which was exactly the same as his own:
