Chapter 55 - Purgatory

Kingpin was exhausted, lying on the ground as a prisoner.

"Batman, you think this is over?"

Seeing that Batman didn't intend to kill him, Kingpin laughed heartily, not even worried that Anton would change his mind, and even threatened, "I swear, I will become the nightmare of your second half of life. The prison can't hold me..."

"Ordinary prisons can't hold you, but I've prepared an extraordinary one for you."

Before he could finish, Anton sneered, his voice low, "You won't be locked up in a prison. I have applied to a powerful Relevant Department for an isolated island in the Pacific Ocean... I call it Purgatory. That island is uninhabited, without any trace of civilization, and you will live there forever."

"Impossible!"

Kingpin roared, "No one can judge me! You are not qualified to judge me!"

"I indeed am not, but the Relevant Department can."

Batman's voice was calm.

"Relevant Department?"

Kingpin frowned, unable to calm his heart as he thought about what Batman had just said.

"To be exact, the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division."

A man with thinning hair appeared.

This guy had led a group of agents to the scene long ago, and only came out to steal the spotlight after the battle ended.

Beside Coulson was Matt, in his Daredevil guise.

Although Matt hadn't appeared in time to support Anton, he had actually contributed a great deal, and his efforts could be said to be immense.

It was he who led Coulson, arriving at Kingpin's most secret warehouses and residences shortly before the fight between Anton and Kingpin began, unearthing the secret weapons Kingpin had hidden and truly discovering the criminal evidence that could sentence Kingpin to a severe penalty.

Compared to the murder of his father during his youth, this was a serious crime that could utterly destroy him.

Of course, the previous actions were not meaningless. On the one hand, they enraged Kingpin, and on the other hand, they further defined Kingpin's crimes, adding more charges and making it impossible for him to turn around.

"Hello, I'm Phil Coulson."

Coulson smiled at Kingpin, who was exhausted, bound hand and foot, and unable to move.

He said seriously, "We found a large number of illegal weapons in Hell's Kitchen, including Stark Industries' latest missile system, Jericho... This violates national security laws, Kingpin, you are under arrest!"

Jericho missiles, a new type of missile developed by Tony Stark, combined with an advanced missile system, had the power to instantly destroy a city.

The starting price was 500 million dollars.

The least noteworthy thing was probably the purchase of a Jericho missile system. It came with a complimentary, high-end wine cabinet worth millions of dollars, filled with expensive spirits like tequila, whiskey, and red wine.

Also worth mentioning was that Tony had been in Afghanistan to promote this very missile system when he was attacked and disappeared.

Coincidentally, Coulson had brought the missiles to the scene, catching them red-handed.

Click!

Anton stepped forward, opened the wine cabinet next to the missile, switched from the rabbit armor to the basic model, and exposed his handsome jawline. He poured himself a glass of whiskey, then raised his glass to Kingpin, drinking it in one gulp. He struck a pose of victory, clearly celebrating.

"Kingpin, I wish you a pleasant afterlife in Purgatory."

He paused, then added, "Don't worry, there will be more joining you in Purgatory soon… Believe me, that day won't be long in coming. You won't be lonely."

After saying this, he ignored Kingpin's desperate, furious roar and turned to Eddie, Matt, and Spider-Man, a vague sense of emotion washing over him.

Venom, Daredevil, Spider-Man, Batman, plus the extra High Table Assassins and the Continental Hotel, as well as SHIELD…

This kind of lineup, even if Kingpin died, he'd have to be satisfied.

"Batman, according to your reminder, we've pinpointed the CEO of Stark Industries, Obadiah Stane."

Coulson regained his composure and said to the man who had transformed into Batman, "However, although the evidence is complete at the moment, Obadiah Stane is not without a way out. He can push someone else to take the blame at any time. Also, I have another question, and I hope you can answer truthfully."

"About Tony Stark?" Batman asked.

"That's right."

Coulson wasn't surprised that Anton had guessed what he was going to ask, and said, "Regarding this matter, as Tony's friend, do you know the details?"

Coulson clearly felt that Anton, who had tracked from Kingpin to Obadiah Stane, might have different information.

After all, Anton had a relationship with Tony Stark.

He didn't avoid the others when he said this.

Spider-Man and Daredevil were slightly taken aback. They hadn't expected Batman to know Tony Stark.

For a moment, they both considered Batman's real-world background.

A fictional character created by Anton Jameson, who later appeared in the real world.

Anton Jameson and Tony Stark were drinking buddies.

Anton Jameson even claimed that part of the idea for Batman came from Tony Stark.

Was this confirmation?

Of course, the Batman and Coulson in front of them didn't have time for their thoughts.

"Although we don't have enough evidence to prove that Obadiah is the mastermind, I can give you a definite answer."

Anton didn't hide anything and spoke frankly: "I don't think what happened to Tony was an accident, but a premeditated murder. The mastermind is most likely Obadiah Stane, and you need to take immediate action against him."

This wasn't a secret worth keeping.

Back in the original story, SHIELD had already taken action against Obadiah Stane.

Obviously, they didn't trust Obadiah very much in the first place.

But whether it was because Obadiah was hiding things too well, or because SHIELD really couldn't find concrete evidence, they preferred to search the deserts of Afghanistan for months, without finding a single clue on US soil.

If it weren't for Tony's father, Howard, being one of the founders of SHIELD... even if Tony had invented and created amazing things, he would have been abandoned long ago.

Strictly speaking, Tony Stark was SHIELD's legitimate golden boy.

Furthermore, before the birth of Iron Man, no one thought Tony Stark would break out of his cocoon and transform into a superhero. Therefore, Tony's value, at this point, wasn't as great as imagined, and he was only getting SHIELD's attention because of the protagonist effect.

"Understood, thank you for your support."

Coulson shook hands with Batman, instructing the agents behind him to carry away the Jericho missile. Simultaneously, Kingpin was injected with a large dose of sedatives and taken away.

However, he left the wine crates that came with the missile behind, making his intentions clear.

The rooftop was now only occupied by Batman, Venom, Spider-Man, and Daredevil.

"Let's split the booze, it's time to savor the taste of victory!"

Anton smiled at the others.

"How about we take a picture first?"

Eddie, within Venom, perked up.

Then, Venom reached into his chest and took out the camera hanging around Eddie's neck. Mimicking Eddie's excited tone in his mind, he imitated, "Tonight's a big story! I want to get three times the bonus this month. We're allies, right? You won't let me down, will you?"

"What?"

"Ugh!"

Spider-Man and Daredevil looked at each other.

Nearby, Anton, disguised as Batman, was deeply moved. Eddie was such a good employee, always thinking about getting money from the boss.
