Chapter 303: Debate
S. H. I. E. L. D., the Trihorn Wing Building.
Coulson, Natasha, Barton, Steve, and Hill were all gathered in this office, and each of them had a solemn expression on their faces.
Everyone in this office was Nick Fury who was more at ease and trusted, and all of them were gathered here because of a great battle that had happened a few hours ago!
After reading the information that Coulson had sorted out, Nick Fury, who was already a late stage of suspicion, suddenly became even more sleepless.
Since the appearance of the [Espada], he found that everything was running in a direction that he could not control. Countless conspiracies were intertwined, like dark undercurrents flowing under a quagmire.
First, it was Jugram Haschwalth, who symbolized the annihilation of the soul, who claimed to be reviving the great [Wandenreiche]. He led a group which their abilities were all in an unknown state [Sternritter].
For thousands of years, this mysterious force quietly lurked in the modern world and was still carrying out some unknown conspiracy.
According to Steve Rogers' report, when he was in charge of the battlefield of the Hydra Headquarters seventy years ago, he had seen Jugram Haschwalth appear with his own eyes, and the latter used some unknown means to attract a large number of [hollow] to the modern world.
As for the details of this raid mission, due to some special reason, the inspector at that time thought it was an illusion caused by a long-term battle, so it was not recorded into the file. So that if Rogers had not personally mentioned it, no one would know about it until now.
As for the source of that special power...
Steve said bluntly that he did not know either. It was just that when he was fighting with hollow, he suddenly awakened this power under high emotional stimulation.
Secondly, what made Nick Fury feel uneasy was that the power that appeared during this battle with death god and Arrancar had already caused far more destructive power than when they first met!
If not for Soul Society's' Space Freeze 'technique, the entire Manhattan would have been reduced to a battlefield. By then, the casualties of the civilians, as well as the damage to the buildings, would be no less than a modern war!
And through this battle, some things revealed made all the elites present feel fear and uneasiness deep in their hearts.
Whether it was the Arrancar that appeared in human form, the Quincy who had been dormant for thousands of years, or the gradually recovering Soul Society.
The three forces clamped each other, maintaining a delicate balance, and the human being was caught in the middle of them, like a leaf in the ocean.
There was a huge crisis of being capsized by the waves at any time!
Then the problem in front of humanity now was how they should protect themselves and not be destroyed by the powerful forces of the three sides!
"Tell me your thoughts."
Nick Fury rubbed the corners of his eyes. His brows revealed a deep exhaustion. He had not slept for an entire day. During this time, he had to be distracted to deal with the questions from above. It could be said that he was exhausted.
Coulson, who had participated in the entire battle and witnessed the battle, looked at the solemn and uneasy expressions of the people around him and spoke first,
"I think the most important task at the moment is to monitor and search. All the information related to the Quincy is missing, and at the same time, establish a closer cooperation relationship with Soul Society."
Other than Steve, after hearing Coulson's suggestion, the others all showed a hint of surprise. Barton and Natasha frowned, as if they did not agree with his point of view.
Dada... Dada...
Nick Fury leaned back in his chair and tapped his fingertips on the table. He said calmly, "What's the reason? Coulson, I need to know the reason for your actions."
"The reason is actually very simple, Director." Coulson cleared his throat and said seriously, "No matter how wary, and careful we are of death god, in essence, they are the defenders of the 'Order' and will not cause a large-scale destructive blow to the current human society."
"I do not agree with your point of view, Coulson." Barton heard this and got up to argue: "You are too naive. Even if death god is the Protector of Order, how can you be sure that the Order they maintain must be the same as the Order we want?"
"Barton's worry is correct." Natasha echoed from the side, "You have seen the destructive power that death god can cause. Even if there is a one in ten thousand chance, we can't hand over the right to decide the fate of mankind to Soul Society!"
"Natasha is very reasonable." Barton then added: "Besides, what does the hatred between death god and the Quincy have to do with us humans? If we rush to the side, we can only attract trouble for ourselves."
Although Coulson had a good temper, after being ridiculed by the two people with guns and sticks, he was also angry and retorted: "With the current strength of human beings, between Soul Society and the Wandenreich, we are nothing."
"Coulson, don't forget your position. You are a human, not death god. We want the highest priority of human interests!" Barton said angrily.
"Human? Hehe..."
It was fine not to mention this matter, but when Coulson was mentioned, he was full of anger. He asked, "Then may I ask if you are thinking about this from the perspective of a human, or from the perspective of the US?"
"Is there a difference?"
"No?"
"That's enough!"
Nick Fury slapped the table and interrupted the two men. "I didn't ask you to come here to quarrel, nor to discuss whose butt is unstable!"
"Hmph."
Barton and Coulson stopped arguing and sat down silently.
"Captain Rogers, what do you think?" Nick Fury turned to Steve and asked, "How do you think the current S. H. I. E. L. D. should face these three forces?"
"I agree with Coulson."
Steve Rogers muttered to himself for a moment before his gaze swept across everyone's faces. "The reason is just like what Coulson said. No matter how dangerous Soul Society is, at least from the surface, they are still dedicated to maintaining order."
"On the other hand, we can already judge that Quincy and Hollow are the threat. Just from their appearance several times, their threat level is far higher than Soul Society's."
"You mean, leaning towards the Soul Realm and opposing the Quincy?" Nick Fury frowned slightly, as if he was not satisfied with this answer.
"Yes."
Steve Rogers said lightly, "Of course, this is just my personal suggestion. The final decision lies in you."
"I'll think about it again..."
Nick Fury closed his eyes and waved his hand. "All of you may leave. Coulson will continue to follow up on Lod."
The few of them left the office one after another.
"Death God, Hollow, Quincy..."
Nick Fury slowly got up. He looked out the window and muttered to himself, "What exactly happened in this world? Why did so many unknown powers suddenly appear?"
"Could it be..."
"As [He] predicted, the final battle is about to begin?"
