I Have a Good Impression on Marvel

Chapter 520 Now, you will become the leader!

The purpose of this internal meeting of the World Security Council was originally to make a fuss about the Hydra, to see if he could take the opportunity to leverage Fury’s position in S.H.I.E.L.D.

But when Fury offered to resign himself, they didn't know what to do.

The unexpected development caused several members of the committee to look at each other.

In an instant, the conference hall fell into an inexplicable silence.

Leon, who was sitting beside Fury, also stared at Fury closely, trying to see something from that dark face.

But who is Fury?

That's the old coin known as the "King of Spies"!

Leon could only see a trace of calmness on Fury's expressionless black face.

Thinking of the conversation in the waiting room just now, Leon couldn't help frowning, as if he understood something.

Although I don't know what trick Fury is playing, such a result is what the council is happy to see.

After all, Fury's influence is too great, and the council is not willing to tear his face directly with him.

Being able to get together and disperse is naturally the most ideal result...

Ultimately, it was Secretary of State Thaddeus E. Ross, who presided over the meeting, who broke the silence.

"Director Fury, are you sure you want to do this?"

"I'm pretty sure."

After a pause, Fury continued: "But, I have a request!"

Hearing this, everyone present, including Leon, couldn't help but be moved, and they all cheered up.

Next, may be Fury's real purpose...

Under the gaze of everyone, Fury's expression remained unchanged, and he said solemnly:

"As for the successor of the new director, I hope to nominate someone."

Hearing this, Ross couldn't help but raise his brows, spread his hands, and then said:

"As the outgoing former director,

Of course you have that power. Your recommendation will also be seriously considered by the Council. Come on, who are you going to recommend? "

In Ross's words, it can be heard that they directly accepted Fury's resignation without any hesitation or retention at all.

Fury was not too surprised by this, just glanced at Leon beside him and gave him a meaningful look before continuing:

"I recommend Leon Coulson, the head of the New York branch, as the new director of SHIELD!"

As soon as the voice fell, the eyes of everyone in the conference hall suddenly turned to Leon!

At this moment, everyone present understood why Fury brought Leon to attend this internal meeting together.

Several directors who couldn't hold their breath immediately began to whisper and discuss in a low voice.

The identity of Lyon was very clear to everyone present.

Judging from the qualifications and work performance of S.H.I.E.L.D. alone, Lyon, the youngest branch minister in history, is a perfect candidate for director!

Although he joined S.H.I.E.L.D. for less than seven years, his qualifications are not old. However, Lyon's resume is brilliant.

As an Avenger, he naturally gained the favor of many agents of S.H.I.E.L.D. and ordinary people.

Not to mention his enormous influence in the military, politics, and business...

The position of Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. is the key person who decides after weighing multiple forces and playing games. Generally, several candidates will be screened first, and then the most suitable one will be selected.

If Leon enters the shortlist, Ross even dares to conclude that, 100%, Leon will undoubtedly become the next Director of SHIELD!

"Is this your purpose..."

Ross, who was surprised in his heart, looked at Fury, then glanced at Leon, who was sitting on the seat with an indifferent face, and then said aloud:

"With regard to the candidate for this successor, the Council will fully consider your proposal, as well as other candidates. Next, we will enter the next agenda of the meeting..."

The purpose of the internal meeting was originally to evaluate Fury and ask for guilt.

However, since Fury offered to resign, the agenda for the next meeting became meaningless.

Councillors from all over the world have no intention of continuing the meeting and making noises. They also have to quickly report to the government behind them.

Fury's unexpected step will definitely trigger a series of chain reactions, such as the vacuum of power, and the placement of personnel into S.H.I.E.L.D., etc. If you want to profit from it, you must start preparing now.

In the end, this internal meeting only lasted for half an hour, and it ended hastily...

Walking out of the conference hall, Fury and Lyon did not leave the Capitol immediately, but passed through and came to the center of the Capitol - the Rotunda.

Today is not an open day for visitors, so in the huge hall, there are only two people, Fury and Lyon.

On the circular wall, there are 8 large oil paintings that record 8 major events in American history.

At this time, Fury was standing in front of the huge oil painting of "George Washington Resigning", his expression was very focused, as if there was something in the oil painting that deeply attracted him.

This scene made Leon couldn't help but imagine.

The oil painting records the story of George Washington, the first president of the United States, who offered to resign after being re-elected for two terms when he could have been re-elected.

It was also Washington's actions that set a precedent for a subsequent presidential term of no more than two terms.

This beautiful talk is still talked about by people to this day.

In a sense, Fury's resignation this time is very similar to the situation in Washington at the time.

Originally, even if the council was dissatisfied with him again, under the great achievement of eliminating Hydra, as long as Fury stood firm, his position as director would still be unshakable.

However, he chose to resign voluntarily and recommended Lyon to the council as the new director.

As for why this is done, the considerations behind this may only be known by Fury himself...

"why me?"

Standing not far behind Fury, Leon finally couldn't help himself and asked this question.

"You know what? When I was recommended by Pierce as the next director more than ten years ago, I asked the same question as you..."

While speaking, Fury turned around slowly, looked at Leon's young face seriously, and said solemnly:

"You know I only trust a handful of people that I can count on one hand."

"The principle on which S.H.I.E.L.D. was established is very pure. There is only one word: protection. Sometimes it is to protect one person, and sometimes it is to protect the entire planet. I see unshakable faith in you."

"S.H.I.E.L.D. has countless departments, and people like you are the core."

"And now..."

"You will be the leader!"

"As for what to do next, it's up to you..."

"Chief!"

Looking at Fury's large hand and the faint smile blooming at the corner of his mouth, Leon couldn't help but stunned, and then obliged to stretch out his right hand and hold it tightly together.

"I will!"
