Strictly speaking, a heroic team like the Fantastic Four has no real leader.

After all, everyone's status is the same, no one's status is higher than others.

But as long as it is a team, there will inevitably be problems of voice and leadership.

Mr. Fantastic Reed may not have the idea of ​​being a leader, but in the Fantastic Four, his leadership is higher than Jonathan.

It's actually quite normal for this to happen.

Because Jonathan is indeed a little too unreliable.

Before awakening his superpowers, Jonathan was not a quiet guy.

Not to mention Mister Fantastic Reed and the Stone Man, even his own sister Susan, the invisible girl, was a headache for him.

In a team of four, three felt that he was unreliable.

Then his position in the team can be imagined.

Although Jonathan is a bit bohemian, he is not stupid.

Like those reporters, he also immediately heard the meaning of Russell's words.

This……

Jonathan did not expect that Russell would give him no face at all.

If it wasn't for the cameraman in front of them still frantically taking pictures of them, Jonathan's face would have long been unable to hang a smile on his face.

Although these reporters did not know what kind of relationship Russell and Jonathan had, but Russell's answer made them keenly aware of the smell of their relationship.

After answering the reporter's question, Russell ignored Jonathan, who was a little embarrassed, and shot his tentacles toward the building next to him.

Then, under the watchful eyes of Jonathan and the reporters, he left the scene with his tentacles.

Looking at Russell's disappearing back, Jonathan felt like a clown now.

After Russell left, he had no idea of ​​continuing to deal with these reporters. Flames erupted from his body, turned into a burning man, rose into the sky, and quickly disappeared.

These little episodes between Russell and Jonathan made headlines the next day without any suspense.

After all, it's the first time these two superheroes old and new meet.

Russell didn't take this little episode to heart at all.

Two more days passed.

The first Zaku mass-produced armor was finally born.

No. 3 and Peter did not disappoint Russell and managed to keep the cost within $20 million.

After testing the shrunken Zaku armor himself, Russell called the Republican senator.

The product has come out, it's time to meet and chat with these military bosses.

Somewhere in the suburbs of New York.

Under the introduction of the senator, Russell successfully met the three US military leaders who were at least major generals.

Among the three military bosses, Russell was pleasantly surprised to discover that he actually knew one of them.

General Ross!

Looking at General Ross wearing the uniform of the U.S. Air Force Lieutenant General, several names quickly flashed in Russell's mind.

Bruce Banner, Betty Ross, Emile Bronski...

I don't know if Bruce Banner in this world has mutated or not. After returning, I have to find an opportunity to investigate.

Although many names and thoughts flashed through his mind, Russell's expression did not change, as if he didn't know who General Ross was at all, he shook hands with them.

After a polite greeting, Russell didn't waste everyone's time, and handed the Zaku armor information that had been prepared to General Ross and the three.

General Ross is interested in super soldiers though.

But he was interested in super soldiers like Captain America, not high-tech individual combat armors like Zaku armor.

But even so, he still carefully browsed the Zaku armor information handed over by Russell.

Although General Ross is not very interested, the other two generals have a lot of interest in the Zaku armor.

"The price of your armor is a bit too high, isn't it?"

One of the Army major generals named Jack spoke to Russell.

"General Jack, expensive or cheap depends on what weapon you are comparing with."

"The Jericho missiles are just as expensive, but the military still loves them, don't they?"

The price of 120 million does seem a bit expensive, but Russell is not worried about this problem at all.

In the absence of similar competing products, unless the military can develop its own battle armor.

Otherwise, even if the price of Zaku's armor is a little high, the military can only choose to purchase it from him.

"The power of the Jericho missile has been proven in actual combat, but your armor, currently only has data on paper."

General Jack continued.

"General, what you said is a bit wrong. There is no actual combat proof, just because the battle armor has just started production."

"General, if you are interested, I can provide battle armor at any time for actual combat testing."

Russell replied humbly.

Although he was full of confidence in the Zaku armor, General Jack was still a little unconvinced until he saw the results of the actual combat test.

On paper and theoretical data, he sees too much.

When some military enterprises tried to obtain orders from the military, they also said that they could produce star destroyers.

Although there was no immediate decision, General Jack and others still gave Russell a chance to prove the armor.

They are going to conduct actual combat tests on the Zaku armor at the military's test site.

For their arrangement, Russell did not refuse.

The order of the military is not so easy to get!

Don't let them see the actual effect, no matter how powerful he said about the Zaku armor, it is impossible to get the order from the military.

After agreeing on the time for the actual combat test, Russell left the study and planned to return to the laboratory.

However, as soon as he came to the hall, General Ross, who had not spoken much, suddenly appeared in front of him.

"General, do you have something to do with me?"

"Go to the tasting room and chat."

Although this is the senator's manor, as General Ross, there is no problem in borrowing the senator's tasting room.

in the tasting room.

Russell and General Russell sat opposite each other.

"General, if you have something to say, why don't you just say it?"

"I don't have much interest in your Zaku armor, but I am very interested in you."

General Ross looked at Russell with a serious expression and said slowly.

"Uh...General, I don't like men!" Russell said with a frown.

After hearing his topic, General Ross almost spit out the red wine in his mouth.

"you……"

After putting down the wine glass in his hand, General Ross looked at Russell with a serious face and said again, "I don't like men either!"

General Ross retorted righteously.

"It's just me and you here, and I won't go around in circles with you anymore."

"I know your identity in the underground world very well."

"I have a plan here that requires special people like you to join."

Although General Ross did not say it explicitly, Russell could roughly guess what his so-called special plan was.

Don't you just want a team of super soldiers like Captain America, it's not hard to guess!

"General, you may have misunderstood a bit."

"I sell weapons to the military, but it doesn't mean I want to be a weapon of the military. These are two completely different things."
