Tony was an expert in this field. Although he hadn't fully familiarized himself with this world yet, he clearly understood the basic concept of the Sentinel robots—especially after his long conversation with Hank.

Hearing Roger and Tony mention the Sentinels, Hank couldn't help but listen intently. But Tony merely glanced at Hank and suddenly said:

"Hank, if you don't mind, why don't we call it a day?"

"Of course, are you heading back to rest?"

"It's getting late, isn't it?" Tony replied with a smile before leaving with Roger to his room.

This deliberate move to exclude Hank made Roger a bit curious. Once they reached Tony's room, Roger finally asked:

"Tony, is there something wrong with the Sentinels?"

It seemed to Roger that Tony had purposefully avoided Hank to discuss the Sentinels, leading him to suspect that there might be an issue.

Sitting in a chair in his room, Tony responded:

"There's nothing inherently wrong with the Sentinels. These robots, based on mutant genetics, are easy to deal with. Honestly, even without me, you could just waltz into their research facility and use the method you've employed before... Snap."

Tony clapped his hands together, mimicking Roger's use of the Power Stone, and continued, "And poof, problem solved. Sentinels dismantled. No need for me."

"..."

"But you didn't come to me just for that, did you? What do you really want to do with the Sentinels?" Tony cut straight to the point.

He was right. If Roger's only goal was to destroy the Sentinels, he could easily accomplish that alone using the Power Stone. The Sentinels wouldn't even pose a challenge.

But Roger had other plans. He saw potential in the Sentinels, which is why he sought Tony's expertise.

Roger sat down across from Tony, deliberated for a moment, and said:

"I wanted to ask: is it possible to reprogram these robots, to control them and use them... to protect these two universes?"

Destroying the Sentinels was simple. But dismantling them outright seemed wasteful, especially given their unique ability to integrate multiple powers.

After learning about the Soul Stone's importance to the two universes, Roger began to consider how to safeguard them once the Soul Stone was removed.

The Soul Stone, as Andrea's message made clear, was one of the six Infinity Stones essential to addressing the multiverse crisis. Roger had no choice but to take it.

Since the Soul Stone couldn't be left behind, the next best solution was finding an alternative way to protect these universes.

The Soul Stone was the foundation for the two universes' independence from the greater Marvel multiverse and served as their core protection. While Roger didn't fully understand how the Soul Stone worked, he wondered if its protective role could be replicated.

This is where the Sentinels came in. Leveraging Tony's expertise and the Sentinel technology, Roger envisioned a plan: to create an upgraded army of Sentinels led by Tony that could safeguard the two universes.

It was an ambitious but potentially feasible idea.

Tony, caught off guard by Roger's question, studied him for a moment before saying:
