Chapter 887: Tongue blossoming lotus, win-win cooperation
It was inevitable that Natasha was shocked to hear that the guy who had just fought with her was Steve Rogers who had defected to Hydra. However, she still calmly asked him coldly.
"You are so brave, Captain Rogers. You know that the whole world is now wanting you, but you still dare to appear here. Why? Are you not afraid of being caught by me and sent to Tony?"
"You don't have this ability, Natasha!" He smiled, and Steve took the mask from his head and then gave Natasha a bright smile. "And, I think there should be some common topics between us. I don't have anything to do to you. Besides, you can't be too loyal to this country, right?"
"I don't have much affection for this country, but I won't betray you. Steve, you're not as smart as you think."
Natasha snorted coldly, and her hand holding the gun was not intended to be put down at all. This also showed her attitude, and she completely treated Steve as an enemy.
But since he dared to appear in front of her, Steve naturally thought of all possible situations. This hostile situation is no exception. So he just smiled and let go of the trigger in his hand first, then put down the gun, raised his hand, and showed a completely harmless expression to Natasha.
"Don't be so nervous, I just want to have a good chat with you. Let go of our current identities and not mention our current identities, don't you even give me the chance to talk to me?"
"What do you want to talk about? I don't think there is anything to talk about with a traitor."
Hearing this, Natasha asked, walked up and kicked Steve's pistol. This made her completely control the situation. So she became unceremonious when she asked.
However, Steve didn't care about the tone of her speech. Even though this tone was a bit hurtful, he still had a hypocritical smile on his face.
"Is it always good to listen to it? I think you are not sure now. Who will win or lose in the end of this fight? If you put all your chips on Tony and the others, then if they become the loser in the future, then will your entire bet bet be thrown into the water?"
"Shut up, Steve. Don't take what I think of as you."
After a cold shout, Natasha interrupted Steve's speech directly. But he did not stop his movements because of Natasha's drinking. On the contrary, he spoke more fluently and smoothly.
"Don't be too self-deception, Natasha. You are not much different from me. Everyone knows this. No matter how good you perform, you are never from this country, and people here cannot give you 100% trust. For such a group of people who are always wary of you, is it necessary for you to sit on their boat until you die?"
Natasha was inevitably silent after saying this.
Because what Steve said is not wrong. Although Natasha looks glorious on the surface, she has always retained a pretty good position, both in the Skyhammer Game and the Avengers. But if you look closely, you will find that she is not as beautiful as she looks on the surface.
Even when Tony's straw troupe was first started, he never entrusted Natasha with the real important matters. Not to mention that the Skyhammer Bureau and the Steel Avengers were established one after another. Even Osborne, a capitalist, could come from behind. Natasha is still a Level 8 agent and can already explain some problems.
Osborn didn't like her because she was a Soviet. The Russians, one of the three leaders of the Skyhammer Bureau, also didn't like her because she had been in the United States for so long. She was like a ghost wandering outside everyone, seemingly intimate, but in fact she was close. Just as Steve said, she was not trusted at all.
As if she was feeling a little sad, the expression on Natasha's face became dim. She was silent for a long time, and Steve didn't speak. The two of them confronted each other until Natasha opened her mouth first.
"You're so sure, can you win?"
Hearing this, Steve immediately showed an unconcealed smile on his face. In his opinion, this was a sign that had already moved Natasha. Although it was not certain that Natasha would surrender to them, at least it was enough to show that her heart had been pried by herself.
The iron should be hit while it is hot, and Steve also understood this principle, so he immediately spread his hands and said to Natasha seriously.
"You have to know, Natasha. The progress of this world has always been in the hands of a few people. Whether it is Alexander's expedition or Hitler's sweeping Europe, the facts have proved that human beings can move towards a more brilliant future only under the leadership of a few absolute elites. And now, please look around you."
"Except Tony and the leaders of those two major powers, who can be called the elite of human beings. They are just a group of pigs, and they can't even solve their own problems. Can you expect them to solve problems in a country or even the whole world? These people have never been dragged down, and they are the most powerful ones. With them, it is almost impossible for humans to make progress. This can be seen from the development of human beings since World War II."
"Since World War II, what has Europe, which was once the center of the world, turned into? Apart from Germany, which was restricted to death and France, which was still somewhat fundamental, which other countries can still reach their peak. Look at the United States, the former superpower. When competing with the Soviet Union, they could still push human civilization forward for a few steps. But once they lose their competitors, they are completely in a standstill. The most important aerospace technology in the world has been stagnant for decades, and what about the former leaders of this country? Apart from holding Thanksgiving turkeys all day long and giving them two fancy names to win the favor of a group of idiots, have they done anything meaningful? Nothing is there. These idiots who rely on empty talk that are packed have no ability to lead the country. The whole world is like this. In such a prospect, do you think they have any hope of victory?"
Waving his arms, Steve said to Natasha with an excited look on his face. Judging from his actions, he really has a little point of giving advice and slander. However, Natasha is not very interested in these. In fact, most women are not very interested in this kind of topics such as human progress and national politics.
But she could hear what Steve meant, that is, there are too many idiots on the human side, and it is impossible for them to beat the elite Hydras.
This sounds a bit ridiculous. You know, although there are many idiots on humans, behind them are more than 5 billion humans in the world. Even from the level of one in a million, there are tens of thousands of geniuses among humans. No matter how powerful the Hydra is and how elite the personnel are, can they still compete with the entire human race?
But Steve said it was true, and his performance as if he was sure to win, made people feel like he wanted to believe him. Judging from Hydra's current performance, they did not seem to have any obvious decline.
The power of an organization to fight against all human beings has not yet been revealed, which is enough to prove his statement. So Natasha did not refute him much, but showed some thought after listening to his words.
"What do you want me?"
She asked, as if she was trying to compromise. But the guns held high in her hand were enough to show that she had not made up her mind yet. Steve also saw this, so he immediately said his thoughts to Natasha.
"I know you are not determined now, so I will not force you to show your attitude now. That is unrealistic, and with your intelligence, you will not accept this obvious, potentially threatened approach. So my idea is that we will cooperate with a limited extent!"
"Limited cooperation?" This vague statement obviously made Natasha a little confused. She muttered for a moment, and then immediately asked back. "What does this mean?"
"I know what kind of threat humans are now under. The Star-Swallower from the depths of the universe is also fatal to us. So in the current situation, we will not do anything to you. On the contrary, we may also give you some cooperation."
“What to cooperate with?”
"Our common enemy, Natasha." Grinned, Steve said frankly. "I saw you being chased by that guy in Europe. Believe me, that has nothing to do with us. That's what Mephisto himself means, and this guy is not just a threat to you, but to us too. So, we can cooperate and deal with this guy's problem!"
"If I remember correctly, Mephisto should be your ally. Is that how you treat your ally?"
Natasha did not agree with Steve's suggestion immediately. On the contrary, she also sarcastically. Steve naturally would not have much emotion for this kind of irony that was not painful, he just explained with a smile.
