"And you, my dear brother," he put his arm around Tony's shoulders.

"You're responsible for the most important part: spending money and turning these crazy ideas of mine into reality. Antimatter weapons, warp engines, Dyson spheres. In short, whatever's cooler, whatever's expensive, whatever's built. Our motto is, if we don't have the technology, we make up for it with firepower!"

Tony...

He found himself in a state of doubt and unable to refute.

This bastard always managed to pass the task on to you in a way that made you want to kill him, but at the same time, you felt like what he said made sense. Steve and Peggy couldn't help laughing as they listened to the brothers' bickering.

They felt as if they had not joined a secret organization to save the world, but had accidentally entered a family workshop?

"Ahem." Steve cleared his throat, feeling the need to get the subject back on track.

"Henry, your plan is bold and far-sighted. I agree in principle."

He glanced at Peggy beside him, who also smiled and nodded at him.

"But power, especially absolute power, is a double-edged sword." Steve's expression turned serious.

"How can we ensure that after we have the power to crush everything, we ourselves will not become the kind of people we once hated the most?" This is the issue that concerns him most.

He spent his life fighting the abuse of power.

From the Red Skull, to Hydra within S.H.I.E.L.D., and even future governments.

He feared they would ultimately sacrifice their freedom for so-called peace and security.

"It's very simple." Henry seemed to have expected him to ask this.

He walked up to Steve, dropped his frivolity, and spoke confidently.

"Mr. Rogers, what kind of system do you think can effectively supervise power?"

Steve frowned. He had been thinking about this question all his life a nd still hadn't found a perfect answer.

"Is it democracy? Is it the law? Or is it morality?" Henry sneered and shook his head.

"No, these things are as fragile as a piece of paper in the face of power."

"The only thing that can truly check power is a greater power."

"And we will always be the strongest."

Henry's tone was confident, conceited, and even sounded arrogant, but the three of them were stunned.

"We don't need to be supervised. We are the ones who make the rules. We will make mistakes and take detours, but we will always be the ones standing at the top, clearing all obstacles for this planet. So, the way to ensure we don't lose control is to make sure we are always stronger than any potential threat. That's my answer." Steve was stunned.

He looked at the young man in front of him, and in his eyes was ambition and confidence that he had never seen before.

This goes against the philosophy he has upheld throughout his life.

However, he had to admit that in this coming era, this kind of Stark-style tyranny might be the most effective solution.

"Okay."

After a long time, Steve nodded slowly, accepting this reason.

"I promise."

He stretched out his hand.

Henry smiled and reached out his hand to shake it tightly.

Tony pouted and muttered.

"Why are you being so sentimental? If someone didn't know, they'd think you were filming a movie..."

Although he said this, his eyes were slightly red.

He picked up the bottle and filled the empty glasses in front of himself, Henry, and Steve.

"Okay, okay." He raised his glass and said reluctantly.

"Since you two are crazy, then as your brother, I have no choice but to go crazy too."

"What was it for? Oh, right."

"For Captain Earth!"

Peggy looked at the three of them lovingly and shook her head helplessly.

She knew that a new era had arrived.

However, just as Tony's glass was about to clink with Henry's.

"Buzz!"

A portal composed of golden sparks suddenly

It opened out of thin air in the cabin behind them.

Everyone looked over, and everyone frowned except Henry.

Tony's hand shook, and half of the red wine spilled.

"Fuck! What the hell?!"

He was startled, and the armor on his wrist instantly covered half of his arm and aimed at the portal.

Steve and Peggy also immediately became alert, and the former subconsciously protected Peggy behind him.

Although he knew that this was the portal to Kamar-Taj, no one knew him at this time.

Under the gaze of everyone, a bald woman wearing a yellow monk's robe and with a calm face slowly walked out of the portal.

Her eyes calmly swept over everyone in the cabin, and finally, they fixed on Henry.

The smile on Henry's face froze slightly.

He looked at the woman in front of him with only one thought in his mind.

Wait, it seems like something has gone wrong.

He was so busy fooling Captain America that he forgot about the biggest cheater on Earth.

"Mr. Henry."

Master Ancient One clasped her hands together and nodded slightly.

Her voice was ethereal and ethereal, as if echoing directly into everyone's mind.

"I thought you were just a special variable. But now it seems different."

Her gaze lingered on the elderly Steve for a second, then returned to Henry's face.

"Hello, nice to meet you. I'm Ancient One."
