2071 Changes In the Individual and the World

After everything was over, Tony looked at Luke, who was standing with his arms crossed. “Let him go. Wake him up too.”

Luke waved his hand, and the rope dart that was wrapped around Steve flew back to his hand.

At the same time, he took out a syringe with the other hand and injected Bucky with an antidote.

Freed, Steve immediately went to check on Bucky.

Tony snorted and wanted to grumble, but gave up. Forget it, it was too humiliating to argue with someone who had been under someone else’s control!

Luke walked over to him unhurriedly. “Go back and get some rest. I’ll give you a little gift.”

Tony asked, “What gift?”

Luke said, “Wait until you calm down a little. Also, you have to make proper arrangements for the Avengers.”

Tony’s face fell. “Is that supposed to be comforting?”

Luke patted his shoulder and said, “Not everybody wants to stand in the spotlight to be monitored and studied. If you like, I have a few actors you can take.”

Tony was unhappy. “I’m not an actor.”

Luke chuckled. “They all have superpowers.”

Tony was suspicious. “Why don’t you want them?”

Luke said, “Because they really want to be superheroes, and I don’t need celebrities here.”

Tony thought for a moment. “Are you making fun of me?”

Luke said, “No, you’re a natural star, the kind who doesn’t need acting lessons.”

Tony was conflicted. Are you… mocking me or praising me?

…

When the four of them came out of the base, they saw T’Challa get out of his Wakandan fighter plane to greet them.

The prince even solemnly thanked Luke.

Luke turned his head and looked at Zemo, who wasn’t injured at all. “You didn’t do anything?”

T’Challa shook his head. “I’ll hand him over to the International Court of Justice.”

Zemo had blown up a United Nations venue, and more than ten people had died. That was what he deserved.

Luke nodded slightly. “His life can be spared, but it’s best to cripple him first.”

T’Challa: This proposal… is indeed very like Batman.

After saying that, the atmosphere turned a little awkward, before both sides said goodbye and left.

Of course, Tony kept up his arrogant facade and said that he would leave on his own.

However, his right leg thruster had been damaged during his fight with Steve, and it was impossible for him to fly long distances.

Luke sighed inwardly. What a pretentious old man!

He had clearly given up on pursuing the matter with Bucky and had personally saved him, but Tony just didn’t want to be in the same space as him.

Luke could only tell Steve to take Bucky away in the Quinjet. Then, he threw out a Trail Ship from his inventory and had the tycoon get in.

After the ship took off, Tony fell silent in the passenger seat.

Luke didn’t disturb him.

Tony didn’t need comfort now. He just needed a quiet space to digest everything that had happened today.

It was also one less worry for Luke.

Tony didn’t really let Bucky die, and his relationship with Steve was a little awkward at most, and wasn’t impossible to fix.

Tony had undoubtedly suffered in this matter.

After finding out the truth behind his parents’ deaths, he still had to control the urge to get revenge, which undoubtedly was very hard for the tycoon.

Thankfully, Luke was confident in the little gift he had prepared.

Besides, there had been a problem with Howard’s death back then.

It was Pierce who had gotten Hydra to divert the attention of the agents who had been protecting the Stark couple for a few minutes, creating an opportunity for Bucky to assassinate them.

Given the sensitive nature of Howard Stark’s identity, the scene of his and his wife’s deaths would definitely be investigated repeatedly.

It was Pierce’s men who arrived first and cleaned up the scene, before finally classifying the assassination as a car accident.

Hydra had specially recorded the video as possible dirt.

Otherwise, given the tech available in the 1990s and the angle on that remote road, how could there have been a surveillance camera on site to capture the entire assassination?

Unfortunately, most of the people who had helped Pierce in this operation were already dead. However, a small number of accomplices who weren’t part of Hydra still held positions in the government.

Tony would probably be happy to spend some time and effort to ruin these people’s reputations and get them carted off to prison.

With this, Luke could be considered to have treated both Tony and Steve fairly.

It wouldn’t do him any good to get involved in this matter; conversely, it would be very easy for Steve and Tony to become estranged.

This was the least costly way to solve Tony and Steve’s problem.

The only person who needed a bit of luck was Bucky.

But he wasn’t Luke’s friend.

Luke had already chosen the least dangerous path for Bucky, and Tony had personally forgiven him.

With Tony’s forgiveness, the Avengers who supported Steve would accept Bucky, and the Avengers who supported Tony wouldn’t cause trouble for Bucky.

Even if Bucky were to make the choice himself, he would be willing to take this small risk for Steve! Luke mulled over this before throwing the matter to the back of his mind.

There was plenty that would need to be followed up on, but most of it was the Avengers’ problem.

He just needed to use the favor from Wakanda to get them to remove the Stone from Vision.

Hm, he had to pay attention to the witch’s mental state in the meantime.

…

There was a lot of noise in the news after that.

The Avengers didn’t sign the Sokovia Accords, because they disbanded.

Except for Tony and Rhodes, everybody else, including Natasha, disappeared without a trace. Even the special agencies in America couldn’t find them.

However, the Sokovia Accords were still signed by more than 100 countries to indicate that they had reached an agreement on the management of superhumans.

This meant that a special protocol was put in place for the various ‘superheroes’ and ‘supervillains’ who had become active worldwide over the years.

According to the Sokovia Accords, once a person was discovered to have superpowers, they would be investigated by various government agencies.

Criminals would be directly apprehended, while those without criminal records or weren’t under suspicion were monitored and couldn’t go anywhere without informing the government of their movements.

On the surface, this agreement didn’t seem harsh, but in fact, it meant that the governments of various countries were now placing restrictions on the superhumans’ use of their powers.

Under the Sokovia Accords, individuals who were revealed to have superpowers had to cooperate with the government.

If they didn’t cooperate, the government would have reasonable suspicion to believe that there was something wrong with them.

Governments had done the same thing in the past, but such arrests had tended to be classified and absolutely couldn’t be discussed in public.

Now, the surveillance and arrest of suspects was confirmed by law in various countries, who could request the international panel to mobilize the special ops of other countries at any time to apprehend suspects.

The suppression and control of superhumans skyrocketed.

Take Mexico, for example. Superhumans, whether they were locals or fugitives from the United States, could be directly apprehended by US special ops.

In the past, it was illegal drug dealers in Mexico who received this treatment. Now, superhumans finally received the same treatment, hence fulfilling a long-cherished wish of various governments.
