To overturn something means to override it. Therefore the correct answer to this is:

“Veto override”

By intimidating using a veto, the President can convince the legislators to modify the content of the bill to be more favorable to the President. Hence in order to overturn this, the Congress can override a veto with two-thirds vote in both the House and the Senate.
