Whoosh…
Blood gushed wildly, reaching nearly to the ceiling.
Heisenberg took two steps back, frowning.
"A bit messy!"
He said, then exhaled a breath of white mist.
In an instant, Fisk's massive body and the still-gushing blood froze into a gruesome, blood-soaked ice sculpture.
As the cold spread through the room, Barbara shivered instinctively, finally seeming to realize what had happened.
"Damn, why did you do this?"
"Let me give you some advice: if you want to live happier, ask fewer 'whys.' As for why I did this…"
Heisenberg turned, patting Bullseye's shoulder once more.
"Tell this woman the 'why' she's asking for, buddy!"
"Yes!"
Bullseye nodded immediately, then, slightly trembling, crawled to Barbara's feet and stood three steps away.
Bullseye's face still showed hesitation, but it was completely overshadowed by his fear and obedience toward Heisenberg.
Bullseye whispered,
"Fisk ordered me, his sharpest blade, to harm the BOSS. This was all Fisk's doing.
He wanted to kill the BOSS, and the BOSS killed him. That's your 'why'!"
"Hahaha!"
Heisenberg laughed. Bullseye was indeed the excellent subordinate he'd chosen.
He'd already called Heisenberg "BOSS" so quickly!
As for Bullseye switching sides so fast—did that mean he was prone to betrayal and unworthy of cultivation?
Of course not.
Even after being subdued by Heisenberg, Bullseye had still tried to stab him one last time.
That final strike had shouted out all the loyalty in Bullseye's heart.
When he was forced to his knees, didn't Bullseye understand Heisenberg's strength?
Even facing such a terrifying enemy, even knowing the assassination might fail,
Bullseye still acted. Didn't he know he might die?
So, is such a man not loyal enough?
And after Fisk's death, Bullseye immediately called Heisenberg "BOSS."
Was that betrayal?
Of course not. It was simply maturity.
Moreover, in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, aside from a certain reclusive bald woman, who else could harm Heisenberg?
Compared to the so-called superheroes in comic books, Heisenberg preferred villains like Bullseye—subordinates and executors.
Looking at all superhero movies, you'll notice a unique trait:
Every superhero team is the most internally conflicted, with the most chaotic themes, the vaguest goals, and the worst execution!
Those so-called superheroes, full of individuality, obsessed with freedom and hope, yet indecisive in action.
Without plot armor, they don't deserve to win!
In contrast, there are the supervillains.
Bullseye, under Fisk, was somewhat inferior—after all, he was just a thug, hardly worthy of respect.
But look at other villains.
Take Crossbones from HYDRA!
Loyal to HYDRA, obedient to orders, never questioning leadership, and never complaining about dangerous missions.
In contrast, Captain America, as a soldier, constantly flaunts his connection to Nick Fury.
Black Widow slacks off unless paid well—give her the money, and she'll take down General Drax.
Hawkeye is perpetually controlled, constantly turning against his team, and moonlights as a deliveryman for Quicksilver.
And these are SHIELD's own agents.
Not to mention Iron Man and Hulk, who struggle to control themselves.
True, they're heroes and intelligent.
But the smarter they are, the more self-centered, and the more trouble they cause.
The terrifying Ultron was their creation, wasn't it?
In this Marvel Universe, Heisenberg had his own plans.
He knew he wasn't suited to be a lone superhero.
He might have enough compassion to help lonely elderly and children.
But that was the extent of his kindness.
He wasn't noble enough to be a Superman with boundless love.
So, he defined himself in the Marvel Universe as an outsider player.
Everyone has a hero in their heart, but his role might be seen as a supervillain.
Heisenberg was clearer than anyone about his nature.
Deep down, he had the cunning and weakness of an ordinary person.
Years of business had honed his shrewdness and greed.
He'd sold seals, offered small loans, operated excavators, delivered sand, and distributed beer—you know how it is.
From the son of an ordinary worker to a small boss earning two million a year in a county town.
He…
His abilities were just that.
Schemes, strategies…
He couldn't do it!
Managing dozens of employees was already a struggle.
But for him, building an organization to serve him was essential.
He had superhuman strength, hearing that could pick up every sound in the city, and vision that could see through walls kilometers away.
But could he do all that every day?
So, he needed a group to handle what he couldn't.
Not every problem could be solved with his fists!
As for building such an organization…
He couldn't do it himself. If he managed it, he could use force and intimidation to prevent betrayal.
But would those subordinates be his assets or burdens?
Could they build a global intelligence network for him?
Could they solve his personal problems and maintain his public image?
Could they bribe officials and make him untouchable in governments worldwide?
If he did it alone, he'd be better off working solo than leading a group!
So, Heisenberg decided in an instant to recruit enough talent.
Even Superman needed the Justice League to face greater dangers.
Could he harvest Origin Substance from the entire Marvel Universe alone?
