Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 532 Initiating the Investigation
Smith Doyle was also taken aback by Jia Ying's words. He hadn't expected her to ask him to uphold justice, which was a little different from what he had thought.

Smith Doyle then recalled Jia Ying's information: during World War II, Hydra leader Reinhardt obtained the mysterious obelisk, but he had never figured out how to open it, so he kept capturing people to test it.

Under Reinhardt's test, anyone who touched the obelisk would turn into shattered rocks and die instantly.

However, one day, Reinhardt's men captured Jia Ying in the village for testing. When Jia Ying's body came into contact with the obelisk, it did not turn into a reef but instead activated the obelisk, causing it to emit a golden light accompanied by the flow of runes.

Reinhard was overjoyed to see this, thinking he had finally found a way to unlock the obelisk.

However, before Reinhardt could even begin his research, Red Skull was defeated and attacked by Peggy Carter, resulting in his capture on the spot. The obelisk was also confiscated by the Strategic Science Corps, the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D., and became a 084 item. The obelisk was S.H.I.E.L.D.'s first 084 item, and all mysteries thereafter share the same designation: 084.

As for Jia Ying, who was arrested, she was rescued and released by Peggy Carter.

After that, Jia Ying lived a normal life until 1989, when Hydra agents discovered her.

They realized that Jia Ying was an experiment by Daniel Whitehall during World War II, but she hadn't aged at all despite the passage of time.

Shocked by this discovery, Hydra managed to rescue Reinhardt, who was still serving his sentence. After his release, Reinhardt adopted the alias Daniel Whitehall and successfully joined S.H.I.E.L.D., becoming a leader in the department.

After becoming the head of a S.H.I.E.L.D. branch, he arranged for Hydra agents within S.H.I.E.L.D. to capture Jia Ying.

Seeing his former test subject unchanged over the years, Daniel Whitehall gazed at his aged body and a wicked thought arose in his mind.

After some research, Daniel Whitehall dismembered Jia Ying and transplanted her organs onto himself to regain his youth.

As for Jia Ying, whose internal organs had been removed, she was disposed of by Daniel Whitehall's orders.

Ultimately, Jia Ying's husband, Mr. Hyde (Calvin Zabo), found her body in a stinking ditch in Austria.

As a doctor, Hyde stitched up Jia Ying's body with needle and thread. In order to revive Jia Ying, the lives of an entire village were drained.

This act of terror alerted S.H.I.E.L.D., and a team of S.H.I.E.L.D. agents took Jia Ying's daughter, Daisy, away in hopes of keeping her away from her parents' horrific actions.

In order to get back their daughter, Jia Ying and Mr. Hyde relentlessly pursue members of S.H.I.E.L.D.

The surviving S.H.I.E.L.D. agents sent the child to an orphanage and named her Skye, who will become the future Quake.

After enduring the torment of Whitehall and the pain of losing her daughter, Jia Ying left her husband and established the Inhumans' base, eventually becoming their leader.

Thinking of this information, Smith Doyle also needed to know that S.H.I.E.L.D. and even the United States's damned Paperclip Project had actually allowed Hydra to rise from the ashes.

To ensure the veracity of the information, Smith Doyle asked:
"Tell me about your experiences and what happened back then. I am also the Inspector General of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"If it really was a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent who did something to you, I will definitely seek justice for you."

Hearing Smith Doyle's words, Jia Ying was also somewhat surprised, as he was not only a member of the Avengers, but also the Inspector General of S.H.I.E.L.D.

However, the position of Inspector General is good. It clearly involves the same responsibilities as supervision, inspection, and internal discipline. Judging from Smith Doyle's philosophy of doing things, he certainly wouldn't protect the other party.

Jia Ying immediately recounted her experience, saying that the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents even took her child away.

Hearing that Jia Ying's account was not much different from what he knew about S.H.I.E.L.D. agents in his previous life, Smith Doyle nodded in agreement.
“I understand your situation. That is to say, the person who made you into what you are now is a high-ranking S.H.I.E.L.D. official.”

Do you know what the other person's name is?

Jia Ying shook her head:

“I don’t know his name, but I have seen his face. I remember him whether he was young when he first arrested me or old when he arrested me the second time.”

Jia Ying then immediately drew two portraits with a pencil, one of Daniel Whitehall when he was young and the other when he was old.

Smith Doyle looked at the two portraits, and although he already knew the truth, he still spoke up:
"I will investigate the facts of your account to see if there are any discrepancies."

"Also, if we need you to testify and identify this person when we arrest him, is that alright?"

Smith Doyle also remembered his duties. Previously, he had only checked accounts and dealt with some problematic agents, which was a bit of a waste of his position. However, even with the highest level of access to information, it would be difficult to completely eliminate Hydra within S.H.I.E.L.D. The best way was to wait for them to come out.

However, clipping some of its wings and eliminating Daniel Whitehall's Hydra should not be a problem at all.

Upon hearing Smith Doyle's words, Jia Ying nodded and said:

“If Mr. Smith is willing to stand up for me, I am willing to make the identification on the spot.”

Smith Doyle thought for a moment, then continued:

"May I ask how you survived after your internal organs were removed?"

Upon hearing this, Jia Ying showed a pained expression, and then said:
"One of my abilities is regeneration, and my other attack method is to absorb the enemy's life force."

“At that time, for my daughter and out of the instinct to survive, I drained the life force of everyone in my village.”

"I feel very guilty about this; it wasn't my intention, but..."

"Another regret is that I don't know if my daughter is still alive, or if she has been used as experimental material by that man."

Smith Doyle nodded when he heard that Ojaying hadn't hidden anything from him.

"I will keep an eye on your daughter's condition; she may still have a chance of survival."

“Every organization has its parasites, and S.H.I.E.L.D. is no exception. Of course, there are also good people, and what I have to do is eliminate those parasites.”

A look of gratitude appeared on Jia Ying's face, and she said:
"Mr. Smith, you are a true superhero, a messenger of justice, a god among men."

“I am very grateful that you are willing to help me seek justice. This matter has been a nightmare for me, and I feel much better now that I have talked about it.”

"If there's anything else you need me to do, or anything else the Inhumans need to do, please let me know."

Smith Doyle thought about Skye's information, wondering if she had joined Coulson's team yet. He was aware that Coulson had become the captain and formed a team.

"There's nothing I need your help with right now. As for whether there will be in the future, let me get rid of this cancer that's rooted in S.H.I.E.L.D."

Jia Ying nodded; she understood Smith Doyle's meaning—to wait until things settled down before discussing anything further. Jia Ying then asked:
“Mr. Smith, would you like to meet with those Inhumans who have already awakened? Most of them are your fans.”

Smith Doyle was skeptical of Jia Ying's words, noting that there wasn't even internet access here, so how many fans could she possibly have?

"I'll see them again when I come back with good news. I can hardly bear to live with this cancer any longer."

Hearing this, Jia Ying understood that Smith Doyle was leaving to verify the intelligence information, since the other party wouldn't listen to just her side of the story.

"Please, Mr. Smith."

Smith Doyle nodded, then left the Inhumans' afterlife base.

······
After leaving the Afterlife base, Smith Doyle did not return to the League of Assassins, but instead went to the S.H.I.E.L.D. Trident Tower headquarters.

This is his office as the inspector general, though he hasn't been here for a while.

The agents at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters were taken aback when they saw Smith Doyle appear at headquarters with a sign, but then greeted him warmly.

At the same time, many people were curious about why this officer had come to S.H.I.E.L.D., and when they thought about Smith Doyle's last visit to S.H.I.E.L.D., they showed a gossipy attitude.

It's worth noting that the last time Smith Doyle assembled an oversight team, he investigated and audited countless people at S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, uncovering many corrupt officials. It remains to be seen who will be unlucky this time.

I opened the office door, and although it had been a long time since I'd been there, the office was still spotless and very clean.

Smith Doyle sat down in his office chair, picked up the landline, and dialed:

"Notify Agent 13, Agent 19, and Natasha to report to my office."

After speaking, Smith Doyle hung up the phone and logged into his S.H.I.E.L.D. account, using his privileges to view the roster of Coulson's team.

Coulson, May, Donny Gill, Ward, Simmons, Fitz.

Looking at the list of six members of Coulson's team, Skye's name was not found, but Donnie Gill, the Iceman, was added to the list.

Donnie Gil was a genius trained by S.H.I.E.L.D. and had even applied for the Boys selection. Little did he know that his fate would take such a dramatic turn.

As for Skye, Smith Doyle was somewhat curious whether the other party's information had not yet been submitted, or if some unexpected event had occurred.

Smith Doyle immediately pulled up the mission log of Coulson's squad and began to examine it.

······
the other side.

Nick Fury received a report from his subordinates that Smith Doyle had arrived at S.H.I.E.L.D. and gone to his inspector general's office.

"What is Smith Doyle up to now?"

"Is this guy going to check the accounts again?"

Nick Fury muttered a few words. As S.H.I.E.L.D.'s biggest embezzler and also its director, he was quite troubled by Smith Doyle's previous auditing of the accounts.

He didn't squander the money he embezzled over the years; instead, he used it all to build safe houses.

These safe houses are located all over the world. In addition to the necessary weapons, various passports, and cash from various countries, each safe house is extremely expensive. Even Nick Fury has started to equip the safe houses with second-generation combat capability detection devices, which is another huge expense.

Is Smith Doyle back to investigate my accounts on the Helicarrier and the Avengers base? He's not that free.

Nick Fury then recalled his bookkeeping and realized that he should not have left any trace.

"Hopefully, it's some unlucky guy that Smith Doyle remembers, rather than someone who'll cause me trouble."

Nick Fury originally wanted to talk to Smith Doyle about the Dragon Balls and the spaceship, but since the latter went into the Inspector General's office, he figured it was best not to go there, since that guy wasn't exactly friendly to Black guys.

······
Smith Doyle quickly finished reading Coulson's team's mission report, which mentioned Skye, a member of the Rising Tide organization. However, Skye did not accept Coulson's invitation to join the team, but Coulson listed her as a candidate for evaluation.

Seeing this, Smith Doyle was somewhat surprised. He wondered what Skye's current situation was. It seemed he needed to investigate. Since she hadn't joined Coulson's team, joining his team would be a good alternative.

At that moment, the office door opened, and Natasha, Agent 13 Sharon Carter, and Agent 19 Mockingbird Barbara walked in and closed the door.

"Sir, is there a mission?"

Natasha was a little curious, as this was her first time entering this office. Looking at her two colleagues, Natasha wondered if Smith Doyle was planning to lay his cards on the table.

Smith Doyle said:
“I received a request from a victim who wanted me to seek justice for her, and the suspect is an executive at S.H.I.E.L.D.”

"I need you to conduct an intelligence investigation into that person."

Natasha then asked:

Is it Nick Fury?

Sharon Carter and Barbara stared wide-eyed, as if they had heard some incredible news.

Smith Doyle exclaimed inwardly: Goodness, as expected of Natasha, those words just slipped out of her mouth.

Smith Doyle immediately shook his head and said:

"Not Nick Fury."

Sharon Carter and Barbara breathed a sigh of relief, but also inwardly exclaimed, "Neither of you calls him 'Chief,' could you really have designs on Chief Fury?"

Smith Doyle said:
"The target is Daniel Whitehall, the head of the Austrian branch of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"The main investigation will focus on his past, starting from 1989, and everything that happened before and after he became a member of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Sharon Carter then spoke up:
"Sir, we don't have the authority to investigate S.H.I.E.L.D. officials of this rank."
