"When capitalists fall, Homelander gets fed."
"Hahahaha! This is the correct way to harvest!"
Homelander laughed triumphantly.
...
Chernobyl, New Skrullos Base.
Gravik stood before the combat command console, watching the screens playing before him.
The screens were divided into dozens of feeds, all real-time reports from major human news networks regarding the U.S.-Eastern Ancient Kingdom conflict in the Pacific, as well as the forceful implementation of the "Ellis New Deal" within the United States.
On screen, the fleets of the two nations were at daggers drawn on the high seas, with the smoke of artillery fire filling the air above the ocean.
Within the United States, federal Agents or Vought Agents kicked down the doors of mansions one after another, pinning those wealthy individuals to the ground.
Watching all this, Gravik mocked them unceremoniously.
"Look at them." Gravik let out a sneer.
"Humans are such a pathetic species. They are selfish, greedy, and short-sighted. For the sake of a tiny bit of profit, they can ignite the flames of war."
"We don't even need to use force to intervene; they will walk toward destruction all on their own."
Pagon hurried to Gravik's side, a fawning smile on his face.
"The General's wisdom is like the stars in the Universe, guiding us." Pagon complimented loudly, "The foolish humans only deserve to wag their tails and beg before you."
He lowered his voice and continued, "General, the most powerful regimes on Earth have completely torn off their masks, and all their energy is being spent on confronting each other."
"This is the opportunity given to us by the Supreme God; we can proceed with the next step of our plan."
Gravik looked at his deputy with great interest.
"Tell me, Pagon."
Pagon straightened his back and pulled up a project proposal titled "Global Unification."
"General, we must face reality. We Skrulls have suffered heavy losses during our long exile. Now, only these million-plus compatriots remain..."
"Even though we possess the powerful personal combat strength of the Super Skrulls, if we want to recreate Skrull glory and re-establish a great interstellar civilization, relying solely on our million-plus compatriots to develop the seeds of civilization will be a long and unpredictable process."
"But you have found a shortcut, haven't you?" Gravik seemed to have guessed his thoughts.
"Yes, General. We can utilize the power of humans, use their resources, their industrial Base, their labor force! Let humans become the fuel for our civilization's revival and the cornerstone for expanding into the star-sea!"
"Hahahaha! Good! Very good!" Gravik reached out and heavily patted Pagon on the shoulder, not stingy with his praise. "Go prepare, Pagon. Make Skrull great again!"
...
Manhattan, United Nations Headquarters building.
Underneath the massive dome, the spacious assembly hall was filled with representatives from countries around the World.
Inside the simultaneous interpretation headsets, various heated arguments could be heard incessantly.
On both sides of the conference table, the representatives of the two superpowers, the Eastern Ancient Kingdom and the U.S., were glaring at each other.
"We demand that you immediately withdraw all armed forces, publicly apologize for this incident, and deal with the personnel involved!" The representative of the XYZ Country said righteously.
"It was your radar fire control system that locked onto our patrol aircraft first! We were acting entirely in self-defense!" The U.S. representative did not back down, roaring in counterattack, "If you do not immediately withdraw from these waters, we will take all necessary military countermeasures!"
"If you want to fight, we will accompany you to the end! Our people will never fear any threat of hegemonism!"
Both sides were at daggers drawn, neither willing to yield. The smell of gunpowder was intense to the extreme.
Other national representatives sat in their respective seats, watching this game of chess between the great powers with cold eyes.
Just as the situation was getting out of hand.
The French representative sitting in the front row suddenly stood up.
He paid no attention to the two great powers still arguing, but instead walked to the front stage and pressed the microphone for speaking.
"Enough! Fellow representatives, please be quiet!"
Surprisingly, as soon as he spoke, the representatives of the Eastern Ancient Kingdom and the U.S. actually stopped arguing and coldly sat back down in their seats.
"Look at yourselves." The French representative scanned the whole room, his tone heavy with grief.
"For some meaningless petty profits, you fight until your heads are broken and blood flows, while the real threat is watching us from the depths of the Universe!"
"The Battle of New York, the Dark Elves, the extraterrestrial Gods! Facts have proven time and time again how small and fragile humans are in the Universe!"
"And what are we doing now? Internal strife! Endless internal strife!"
The French representative took out a thick document and slammed it heavily onto the tabletop.
"On behalf of the French Republic, I officially submit an emergency proposal to the United Nations General Assembly."
"In order to cope with the increasingly frequent and deadly extraterrestrial threats, humanity must stop all internal disputes. We propose concentrating all of humanity's resources and power, abolishing the existing national political systems, and breaking down national barriers."
"Establish a unified government, the Human Federation!"
As soon as these words were spoken, the representatives of both the Eastern XYZ Country and the U.S. were stunned.
A unified government? Breaking down national barriers? This is simply a fantasy!
But after a brief silence, the British representative was the first to express: "Great Britain agrees to this proposal. For the future of humanity, we are willing to integrate into the new political system and abandon our independent sovereignty."
Immediately after, the German representative stood up: "The Federal Republic of Germany seconds this. Only through unity can humanity survive."
The Japanese representative stood up abruptly and bowed deeply: "The State of Japan fully supports this! We are willing to hand over all our industrial production capacity to be unified and allocated by the Federation!"
Italy, Spain, Australia... one representative after another stood up, successively expressing their support for this crazy proposal.
These countries, which usually haggled over every ounce for their own national interests, were now displaying unprecedented selflessness, even eagerly wanting to hand over control of their own countries.
The U.S. representative and the representative of the XYZ Country exchanged a glance.
Both saw the hidden vigilance in each other's eyes.
They knew exactly what was going on. What "for the future of humanity"? These guys sitting across from them, full of high-sounding morals, were all green alien monsters underneath their skins!
Although the previously established strategy by both nations' high commands was to "remain still and stall for time," without directly exposing the Skrulls' disguise.
But now, these monsters actually wanted to legally form a global unified government through the United Nations, directly swallowing all of humanity's resources legally. This move, no matter how you look at it, was absolutely absurd.
