    5 Chapter 724: Chapter 653: Compound No.


    5 “Really, it’s true!


    You, you are my son!”


    Homelander was very excited, looking at Ryan, not caring at all about his attitude toward himself.


    At this moment, Tao Yu was also dressed in a white robe, slowly floating down from the opening above, watching the scene before him quietly, and also glanced at Billy Butcher.@@@@


    This man, who could sacrifice everything for revenge against the entire world, must also be a Chosen One.


    Billy Butcher had always believed that Homelander had assaulted his wife and fathered an illegitimate child, so he spent his life seeking revenge on Homelander, forming the Black Cloak Patrol specifically targeting superheroes, with the nickname ‘Butcher’.


    ...


    Looking at the three Hellhound corpses beside him, Tao Yu could also understand that this guy had gained some enhancement through killing.


    But compared to the temporary Compound V he used to gain his superpowers, it was still far too little.


    Although temporary Compound V greatly shortened Billy Butcher’s life span, it was less dangerous for adults than the real Compound V.


    And he was also lucky that temporary Compound V brought him a set of abilities very similar to Homelander’s.


    This was actually quite ironic; maybe it was what he longed for in his daydreams...


    As for Billy Butcher, Tao Yu had no ill feelings toward him, but certainly no good ones either.


    This was a man who would stop at nothing to achieve his goals.


    And indeed, there were still many uncertainties left behind.


    Only his wife was still alive, and Homelander only cared about his child, so it seemed that there could be a kind of comical balance formed between them...


    At this time, Billy Butcher was not noticing Tao Yu at all, just staring blankly at Homelander ‘reuniting with his family’ over there, feeling like he had completely become an outsider.


    “Don’t worry, I will definitely protect you, let’s go.”


    Homelander didn’t have much affection for Rebecca, but since she was the mother of his child, to ensure the child had a mother’s love, he was definitely going to take her too.


    And after going through all the hardship and witnessing the cruelty of the demons, Rebecca looked at Homelander and managed to squeeze out a faint smile.


    Emotionally, she valued Billy Butcher more, but she also had Ryan, her child; she could only accept the situation, trying to not look at Billy Butcher’s expression as much as possible.


    Which gave Tao Yu a good chance to mind his own business and enjoy the drama.


    “Alright, it’s about time, let’s go.


    We’ve been away from the fleet for a while now, we need to be careful those demons don’t pull any tricks.”


    Tao Yu did not interfere with this family drama.


    “Oh, okay, let’s go.”


    Homelander really found his child, and although it was his first time being a father, he seemed very excited.


    “Mm.”


    Seeing that Homelander had begun to mobilize his drive, Tao Yu felt very satisfied.


    This is how persuasion should be used, the right way indeed...


    Swoosh swoosh~


    Two figures tore through the sky, speeding towards their destination.


    The Mach cones they created formed parachute-like shockwaves, before they landed one after another on the aircraft carrier’s deck.


    “Ease up a bit, if I hadn’t released the Barrier, they couldn’t have withstood that speed.”


    After landing, Tao Yu casually tossed the unconscious Billy Butcher to the side and then said to Homelander,


    “Ha ha, got a bit too excited, thanks.”


    Homelander, a bit disheveled, placed Rebecca and Ryan on the deck, squatting down to look at his child, growing fonder by the second.


    I’m a father now!


    “Listen well, you are the son of Homelander, and you too will inevitably become a Superhero who saves the world.”


    Homelander had always been great at public relationsa?€”though Ryan initially felt some hostility towards him for the sake of protecting his mother, he was not repelled by Homelander.


    Tao Yu then turned to the approaching Ohno-ki and asked,


    “Tsuchikage, how is the fleet faring now?”


    “Not bad, the transition has been successfully completed, and with video evidence, no one dares to speak out for them now.”


    Ohno-ki tapped his aching back, looking somewhat tired.


    With Homelander’s firm takedown of those congressional representatives and the undeniable evidence of their collusion with the demons, with Ohno-ki’s smooth skills, they naturally managed a smooth transition.


    After all, Homelander’s prestige was immense in this area, corroborated by tangible video evidence.


    Since the junior administrators were still in place, the entire fleet had more or less returned to normal operation.


    Superheroes like Starlight and Maeve, in cooperation with some of the Ninjas from the Village Hidden by Stones, temporarily took over control of each warship.


    Everything was in perfect order.


    “So, about Compound V from Vought Corporation, I wonder if any leads have been found.”


    Tao Yu was somewhat interested in Compound V.


    Perhaps it wasn’t of much help to him, with its randomness being too strong, but it definitely amounted to a sizable income.


    If it could be reverse-engineered and mass-produced, the long-term profits wouldn’t be inferior to those of the Scripture Depository.


    And if this could be acquired, it would almost be a boon for his own exclusive benefit.


    At most, he would ask the little rich woman to help manage the aftermath and share a bit of the profitsa?€|
