Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 604 Confirmed Death
Then Natasha seemed to have thought of something and asked:
"Metal arm?"

Steve nodded and said:

"Yes, the entire right arm is made of metal."

He easily caught the shield I threw.

Natasha said:
"I heard that a team of super soldiers appeared during the operation at Rose Manor, and one of them seems to have a metal arm."

Hill, who was standing nearby, immediately started retrieving information using his tablet and quickly found Chen Haoran's description of the team of super soldiers in that battle.

"That's right, one of the super soldiers in that team does have a metal arm."

Steve muttered:

"Could it be that they attacked Nick Fury?"

Natasha nodded and said:

"It's highly likely, after all, super soldiers equipped with mechanical arms are quite rare."

Just then, Smith Doyle pushed open the door and walked in with Sharon Carter and Barbara.

Smith Doyle entered, glanced at Nick Fury lying there covered with a white sheet, walked over and removed the sheet, but sensed no life force from him.

"Nick Fury just sacrificed himself like that?"

Steve said:
“He was attacked twice at my place, and the second shot was an armor-piercing round, which killed him completely.”

"It's my fault. I fell for the enemy's trick of luring me away from the mountain. I shouldn't have rushed out."

Smith Doyle covered Nick Fury's face with the white sheet again and then spoke:
"It's not entirely your fault; the enemy is too cunning."

"Agent 17 was also present at the time, but there was no time to provide assistance."

"It's a pity he died on the spot, otherwise my treatment pods could have brought him back..."

At this moment, more S.H.I.E.L.D. agents arrived, and Hill spoke up:
"Chief Inspector, we must avenge the bureau chief."

"The other party attempted to assassinate the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. several times in one day, which is a provocation against us, and he actually succeeded in doing so."

Smith Doyle nodded and said:

"Find them, crush them."

Steve Rogers then asked:
"Chief Inspector, is it possible to bring the bureau chief back to life?"

Noticing the gazes directed at him, Smith Doyle frowned slightly, then spoke:
"I can't do it, but you can try to win the next World Martial Arts Tournament."

Hearing this same excuse again, Steve Rogers angrily turned and left. He couldn't understand why Smith Doyle wouldn't use the Dragon Balls to revive the director, even in a situation like Nick Fury's death.

Hill then spoke up:
“Inspector General, Steve just couldn’t accept it for the moment, it wasn’t intentional.”

"But it really can't be..."

Smith Doyle shook his head and said:

"The Dragon Balls can't be used indefinitely. Not long ago, they were thinking of reviving the people who sacrificed themselves last time, and now it's Nick Fury again. Do you really think Shenron has no temper? I'm afraid he'll just grab the Earth and blow it up."

Hill was stunned by the answer. She could understand being rejected, but what did he mean by "crushing the earth to pieces"?
"Will the dragon attack us?"

Smith Doyle shrugged his shoulders and said nonchalantly:

"Crushing the solar system would be no challenge for that person."

"Also, don't treat the resurrection as a safety net. If you don't have the confidence to win the championship, don't treat it as a trump card."

Nick Fury was the one he arranged for Yelena to finish him off; how could he possibly allow him to be resurrected so easily?

Hill nodded and said:
"I understand."

"It seems we need to notify the bureau chief's family to come and collect the body, but it will take some time."

After speaking, Hill walked out.

At this moment, Natasha walked over and said:
"The group that attacked Nick Fury was very likely the super soldiers from the Rose Estate incident."

Smith Doyle nodded and said:
"This matter will be investigated."

"How do you feel about Howard's version of the Super Soldier Serum?"

Natasha said:
“I thought I would become a muscular woman, just like Steve went from being a skinny guy to the muscular man he is now.”

"I was surprised that my body didn't change at all, and I'm very satisfied with the result."

"Now I can be considered a superhuman."

Smith Doyle nodded and said:
“Go check on the captain. The first thing Nick Fury did after being attacked was to hide in his house. We should give him an explanation.”

Natasha nodded and then left the room.

Natasha, who had come out, saw Steve Rogers, who was pressed against the corner of the wall and said nothing, and walked over to him.

"Steve."

Steve Rogers looked up at the woman in front of him.

"Natasha."

Natasha asked:
"Why would Nick Fury go to your house?"

Steve shook his head and said:

"I don't know why he came."

"Actually, I really can't understand what he did to be attacked so intensely in one day. He was already injured before he came to my house."

Just then, Rumlow, who had come out, called out from behind Steve:
"Captain, they asked you to return to S.H.I.E.L.D."

Steve turned to look at Rumlow and said:
"OK, wait."

Rumlow emphasized:

"They want you to go back immediately."

Steve looked at Rumlow, paused for two seconds, and then said:

"Ok."

Seeing that the captain had agreed, Rumlow turned and left.

Natasha looked at Steve and said:
"You really can't lie."

After saying that, Natasha turned and left. Steve watched Natasha leave with a sense of helplessness, as there were some things he simply didn't have the chance to ask her.

At that moment, the voice from the walkie-talkie caught Steve's attention.

"The commando team will immediately escort Captain Rogers back to S.H.I.E.L.D."

Steve glanced at the commando team behind him, then saw the vending machine door open beside him, with staff restocking snacks. Steve immediately realized where he had hidden the USB drive in his hand.

After dealing with the USB drive, Steve immediately headed towards Rumlow and the others.

"Let's go."

"it is good!"

Rumlow immediately gave the order:

"Assault team, move out."

······
Coulson's team, having received new support from Nick Fury after the Airbus was destroyed, got a near-complete air command center.

Coulson said at this time:
"We have just received news that Director Nick Fury has been assassinated."

Upon hearing Coulson's words, everyone present froze, and then spoke up:
"How can this be?"

Coulson said:
"This is intelligence passed on by Commander Hill."

"The attackers are very likely the same group of people we are tracking down."

"According to the captain's intelligence, the attackers were the same team of super soldiers who appeared when we were investigating Rose Manor."

"Now return to New York."

Everyone nodded and said:
"Yes, sir."

······
the other side.

Trident Building.

Steve boarded a plane and returned to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters, heading towards Alexander Pierce's office.

In the hallway, he saw his nurse neighbor, Agent 17, reporting to Pierce.

Pierce comforted him:

"No matter the outcome, you did your best."

Agent 17 Kate said apologetically:

"Thank you, sir." Number 17 then turned to leave, but saw Steve Rogers approaching and greeted him.

"Captain Rogers."

Steve scoffed:

"Neighbor."

Steve was somewhat unhappy that his neighbor had been assigned to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and was being used to monitor him. It was ridiculous that an ordinary agent was capable of protecting him; let him monitor him.

As Pierce looked at Steve Rogers who had walked up to him, he began to speak:
"Captain, I am Alexander Pierce."

Steve grasped Pierce's hand and said:
"Sir, it's an honor to meet you."

Pierce smiled and said:

"It is an honor for me, Captain."

“My father used to be in the 101st Airborne Division. Come in.”

Steve followed Pierce into Pierce's office, where he picked up a photograph on Pierce's desk. It was a picture of Pierce and Nick Fury together.

Seeing this, Pierce spoke up:
“This photo was taken five years after I met Nick, when I was at the Colombian State Department.”

"After the Colombian Liberation Army occupied the embassy, ​​the guards helped me escape, but the rebels took hostages."

“Nick was the local head of S.H.I.E.L.D., and he came up with a plan to launch a raid through the sewers.”

“I said, no, we will negotiate.”

"As a result, the rebels refused to negotiate with us, so they ordered a kill-or-be-killed operation. They ransacked the basement, but what happened to the law?"

"empty."

“Nick disobeyed my direct orders and carried out a mission on foreign soil without authorization, rescuing more than a dozen government officials, as well as my daughter.”

Steve looked at Pierce and said:
"So you promoted him?"

Pierce nodded and said, "I have never regretted it."

After recounting the story of the photo, he subtly told the captain that Nick Fury was one of his men and someone he had promoted.

Pierce then looked at Steve and asked:

"Captain, why was Nick Fury at your house last night?"

Steve shook his head:
"I do not know."

Pierce asked again:
"Did you know that it was monitored?"

Steve nodded:
“I know, Nick Fury told me.”

This is when Pierce spoke:
"Did he tell you that he was the one eavesdropping?"

Upon hearing this, Steve was also taken aback. Sure enough, Nick Fury was someone who couldn't trust anyone.

Seeing that Steve remained silent, Pierce spoke up:

"Let me show you something."

At this moment, Pierce opened the virtual screen next to him and played an interrogation video.

The person being interrogated in the video is none other than Bartók, who jumped ship and ran away.

Unexpectedly, this person had already been arrested and brought back by S.H.I.E.L.D.

In the video, the interrogating man asked:
"Bartók, who ordered you to do this?"

Steve looked at Pierce and said:
Is this a live stream?

"Yes, they caught him last night in a safe house in Algiers, which isn't exactly safe either."

Steve asked:
"You mean he's a suspect in the assassination of Nick Fury?"

Pierce shook his head and said:

"Bartók didn't like assassinations."

"It's not him; it's much more complicated than that."

Pierce then continued:
"Bartók was hired by an anonymous individual to attack the Lemuria Star; they communicated via email and were paid by wire transfer."

"The money then went through seventeen fake accounts before finally being transferred to a holding company."

"The company's registrant is Jacob Vichy."

As he spoke, Pierce handed the compiled documents to Steve.

Steve took the documents and asked, puzzled:
"Should I know him?"

Pierce continued:
"That shouldn't be the case. Viktor died six years ago."

"His last address was 14-35 Elmhurst Street."

Steve flipped through the documents while listening to Pierce's explanation.

Pierce continued:
"When I first met Nick Fury, I learned that his mother lived at 14-37 Elmhurst Street."

Upon hearing this, Steve looked at Pierce and said:

"You mean Fury hired pirates?"

"why?"

Pierce explained:

"The prevailing theory is that this hijacking was merely a cover for the transaction of classified information."

"The deal went wrong, and as a result, Nick Fury lost his life."

Steve retorted:

“If you really know Nick Fury, you should know that this is impossible.”

Pierce nodded:
"Otherwise, why would you come to see me?"

Pierce then got up and walked to the side, saying as he went:
"do you know?"

“I work on the council not because I want to, but because Nick Fury requested it.”

"Because we are all very realistic."

Pierce walked to the French windows, looked at the scenery outside, and said:
"We know that, aside from diplomatic maneuvering and hypocrisy, building a better new world sometimes requires destroying the old one."

"But this inevitably makes enemies."

At this point, Pierce turned to look at the captain.

“They will say you are shameless and dirty because you are willing to do shameful things just to create something better.”

"The thought of those people living such carefree lives makes me extremely angry."

At this moment, Pierce walked back to his desk from the French windows and continued:
“Captain? You were the last person Nick saw before he died. I don’t think that’s a coincidence.”

"I think you feel the same way."

Pierce continued:
"So I'll ask again, why is he with you?"

Steve looked at Pierce in front of him, his mind filled with Nick Fury's dying words to him: "Don't trust anyone except Smith Doyle."

She felt a pang of regret for not being honest with the other party in the hospital because she was angry that they refused to use the Dragon Balls to revive the people who had sacrificed themselves last time, as well as Nick Fury.

After thinking for a moment, Steve said:
"He told me not to trust anyone."

Pierce asked:
"Including him?"

Steve thought of Smith Doyle and then said:

"I'm sorry, those were his last words."

"Excuse me!"

After speaking, Steve picked up the shield that was placed to the side and prepared to turn and leave.

"team leader."

When he heard Pierce call him, Steve stopped and looked over.

Pierce then spoke up:
"Someone murdered my friend, and I must find out the reason."

"Anyone who blocks my way will regret it."

"No matter who it is."

Steve looked at Pierce, remained silent for a few seconds, and then said:
"clear."

Steve then turned and left Pierce's office, taking the elevator.
