Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 616 Pierce: We're just a support group, you have to believe me.
the other side.

After taking down a squad of assault soldiers, Steve encountered another heavily armed push squad.

"Captain Steve, Chief Smith has given orders."

"Give up resistance and surrender, and we will not pose a threat to your life."

Steve Rogers frowned and began to speak:
"I have my mission, and I cannot rest easy until Hydra is eliminated."

Upon seeing this, the assault team member spoke up:
"I'm sorry, Captain Steve!"

He immediately pulled the trigger of his weapon, and saw that some of the stun guns fired grappling hooks and others fired electric nets; the purpose was clearly to capture them alive.

Seeing this, Steve dodged the attacks while also being somewhat hesitant to use his full strength.

Steve felt that if these people didn't kill him, they weren't Hydra, so he couldn't kill them either; he could only try to stun them.

For a moment, Steve was entangled by the other party, when Hill's voice rang out:
"Captain, there are eight minutes left."

Steve got up from the ground and said:
"I've done my best. These are all S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, so I can't kill them."

"This situation, where you can't tell friend from foe, is too uncomfortable."

“Jessica, I need your support.”

In the broadcasting room, Hill looked at Jessica Jones beside him, but she shook her head.

“I support Chief Smith. It’s already good enough that Steve wasn’t arrested. I won’t help him with this.”

After hearing Jessica's words, Hill immediately asked:
"Falcon, where are you?"

Falcon just said it has logged in, but it hasn't successfully replaced me yet.

As Falcon dodged the attacks, he said:
"I need to go around in circles first."

“Da-da-da-da!”

The Quinjet fighters behind him kept strafing, and as Sam flew in a straight line, he immediately locked onto the target and pressed the missile launch button.

“Swoosh, swoosh, swoosh!”

In an instant, more than ten micro-missiles flew out and rushed directly toward Sam.

Sam immediately changed direction and moved to the other side below the space carrier, flying close to the wall. The missiles, however, had automatic guidance capabilities and immediately followed.

However, the missiles' turning ability was clearly not as flexible as Sam's own, and all the missiles attacked the armor below the space carrier.

"boom!"

"boom!"

"boom!"

Even the last few missiles shattered the area below where the positioning chip was placed.

Seeing this, Sam flew straight in and said:

"I'm in."

However, he was sent flying by a punch as soon as he landed. The person guarding him was none other than Mike, the Centipede Serum Warrior who had been recruited into S.H.I.E.L.D. by Coulson.

"what!"

Sam, who had been knocked away, immediately spread his wings, regained his balance, and flew back up. He looked at the black man guarding the spot and said:
"There is a superhuman in my chip room. I need some time to deal with him."

Seeing this, Sam flew over to try and lure Mike, but Mike didn't fall for it at all. Instead, he raised his arm, and a miniature missile rose from the metal device on his arm and began to aim at Sam.

"Whoosh!"

The miniature missile was launched, and Sam immediately changed direction to dodge it.

However, Sam had already been locked on, and the miniature missiles were equipped with tracking and identification capabilities.

Upon seeing a Quinjet approaching and preparing to attack him, Sam immediately used his agility to cause the missile to collide with the Quinjet.

"boom!"

Inside the Security Council.

Pierce looked at the man who had been brought in, his heart pounding with anxiety.

He didn't understand why Smith Doyle would believe Steve's words and doubt him, and what he didn't expect was that Smith Doyle had a way of distinguishing truth from falsehood.

At this moment, Pierce held the phone that could wake up Hydra, but he dared not wake up the Hydra agents inside S.H.I.E.L.D.

If all you do is distinguish between the truth and falsehood in your own words, you're willing to sacrifice yourself to save the entire Hydra.

Pierce, with a calm expression, began to speak:
"Logically speaking, Steve is not qualified to investigate me based on a single sentence."

"But in order to put everyone's minds at ease, I think I cannot refuse."

"I wonder what kind of superpower this gentleman uses to determine whether I am Hydra?"

Marcus looked at Pierce and smiled disdainfully. As the progenitor of vampires who had lived for countless years, he didn't care about ordinary people like Pierce who held high positions of power.

“It’s very simple. All I need is your blood. Through your memories, I can determine your past and naturally know whether you are a Hydra.”

"After all, you can't deceive your memory."

Upon hearing Marcus's words, Pierce's expression changed. What kind of ability was this? To be able to acquire memories through blood.

If what he said is true, then everything about Hydra has been completely exposed.

At this moment, Natasha felt at ease. With this ability, identifying Hydra would be too easy.

However, while Natasha felt at ease, the other three Security Council members felt a jolt of unease.

Although they are not Hydra, everyone has secrets, especially those representing their respective countries.

The man before me can acquire memories through blood, so wouldn't that mean that as long as I obtain their blood, there are no secrets in the world for him?

The British council representative then asked:
"Is there a time limit to the memory that Mr. Marcus has acquired?"

Marcus glanced at the British representative, a wicked smile playing on his lips, and said:

“There are no restrictions. Even if you have forgotten memories from when you were 3 years old, I can detect them through your blood.”

The other Security Council representatives were also terrified upon hearing this answer; it truly was a highly dangerous superpower.

At this moment, Pierce spoke up:
"You're kidding me. With so many memories, how can you still be sure who you are after you've seen them all?"

Marcus began by saying:
"The overwhelming amount of memories can indeed easily cloud the mind for ordinary people, but to me, your decades of memories are nothing more than a collection of stories."

Seeing the other person's confident expression, Pierce could no longer maintain his composure.

His expression changed repeatedly as he looked at Marcus, who was about to approach, and Pierce spoke:
"No need for blood tests, I'll confess."

"I am indeed Hydra, and even more so, the leader of Hydra, but our ideology has long since ceased to be about controlling or destroying the world."

"We are currently existing in the form of... well... a mutual aid society."

Hearing Pierce's words, everyone present was astonished. They hadn't expected that the other party was indeed Hydra, and even more so, the leader of Hydra. Smith Doyle's lips curled slightly at this moment. He didn't believe Pierce's words about the mutual aid society at all; he was well aware of the situation.

“Secretary Pierce, you’re so afraid of having your memories checked that you’re even willing to expose yourself.”

"Is it because there are too many unspeakable secrets inside?"

"For example, information on all Hydra members."

Upon hearing Smith Doyle's words, Pierce gave a bitter laugh, slowly sat down in his chair, placed the collection on the table, and said:
"If you want to see it, then go ahead and see it, but I didn't lie."

"My goal is no longer to dominate the world, especially after I learned of the existence of people with your strength."

"Originally, I planned to follow behind you and see if I could have the opportunity to see the scenery of the universe outside of Earth, so that Earth could also become an empire in the universe."

"But unfortunately, it seems I don't have that opportunity anymore."

Smith Doyle considered Pierce's words and thought it was possible, but that didn't mean he would let him off the hook. A dead Hydra is a good Hydra.

Otherwise, will S.H.I.E.L.D. listen to them or Pierce? You have to know that Hydra's infiltration of S.H.I.E.L.D. is astonishing, even numbering no less than a third, which is why they were able to break S.H.I.E.L.D. apart under a surprise attack.

"Let me see for myself whether it's true or not."

"Marcus, it's up to you."

Marcus nodded and said:

"Yes, chief."

Marcus stepped forward, grabbed Pierce's wrist, and immediately bit it, using the blood to read all of Pierce's memories.

······
At that moment, at the takeoff point of the fighter jets in the Trident Building, a team of pilots spoke up:
"All S.H.I.E.L.D. pilots, take off immediately."

"Our objective is to destroy that unknown flying unit."

"Whoosh!"

"boom!"

A single howitzer shell destroyed a Quinjet that had just taken off, and the crash caused an even larger explosion.

"boom!"

Nearby staff members were blasted away.

At that moment, Bucky Barnes, the Winter Soldier, led a squad of Winter Soldiers, each carrying a grenade launcher, and fired a grenade at a Quinjet on the tarmac.

Many pilots were blown up, and the Quinjet fighters were almost completely destroyed.

At this moment, nearby special agents wanted to retaliate, but Bucky picked up an assault rifle and fired first, killing the agent on the spot.

He even picked up a grenade and threw it into the fighter jet that had just closed its suspension ladder.

"boom!"

Another fighter jet has been destroyed.

A ground crew member picked up an assault rifle and launched an attack on Pakistan.

“Ding, ding, ding!”

Bucky used his metal arm to block the incoming bullet in front of his face, then punched the other man to death and kicked him in the face.

The ground crew member was kicked away by Bucky and crashed into the turbofan engine of a Quinjet that had just taken off. The engine exploded instantly, and the jet was destroyed once again.

At this moment, there was only one pilot left. Just as he was about to take off, Bucky jumped onto the top of the enemy's cockpit, smashed the glass, and killed the enemy.

"Clap! Clap!"

After killing his opponent with two shots, Bucky casually threw away his weapon, went to the cockpit, ripped off the glass, threw away the dead pilot, and started the plane himself, heading towards the space carrier. His mission was to kill his target. The other Winter Soldier hijacked Quinjet fighters and flew towards the carrier where Steve was.

······
In the conference room.

Marcus is still reading memories, which will obviously take a considerable amount of time.

At that moment, Tony Stark saw everything happening on the tarmac through the floor-to-ceiling window and immediately spoke up:
"Bucky has appeared. Smith, I'm going to get my revenge."

Hearing Tony's words, Smith Doyle said:
"No one can stop you from avenging the murder of your parents."

Tony Stark nodded, pushed open the door, and prepared to go to the rooftop helipad. At that moment, a Skyplane landed on the rooftop helipad. The sound of the propellers drew everyone's attention, and they stared wide-eyed at the people getting off the plane.

Tony Stark looked at Nick Fury as he walked down and said:
"I heard you're dead. It's true what they say, evil lives on for a thousand years."

After speaking, Tony Stark ignored Nick Fury and summoned his suit. Immediately, a suit inside the Stark Tower experimental facility activated and flew toward Tony Stark's location.

Nick Fury glanced at Tony and then spoke:
"I didn't expect to see you here. What a surprise."

After speaking, Nick Fury, wearing a black trench coat, walked into the meeting room.

Natasha had now removed her disguise, and Smith Doyle looked at Nick Fury as he entered and said:
“I clearly saw your body; I never imagined you would still be alive.”

"That was quite unexpected."

Nick Fury frowned as he looked at Pierce being drained of blood, then spoke:
"We need to have some means to prevent ourselves from being easily assassinated."

Marcus was still reading Pierce's memories; after all, with so many memories, even just looking at some key points would take a considerable amount of time.

Pierce was deathly pale, clearly having lost a lot of blood, but upon seeing Nick Fury enter, he still spoke:
I also sent you flowers, did you receive them?

Nick Fury said:
"That's because you thought I was dead."

Nick Fury then voiced his doubts, also in an attempt to clear himself of suspicion in front of everyone:
"Why did you make me the director of S.H.I.E.L.D."

Nick Fury believes that Pierce, as the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and a member of Hydra, should have handed over his position to another Hydra member after stepping down, and he doesn't understand Pierce's behavior.

When Pierce heard this question, he immediately replied:
"Because you are the best and the most ruthless person I know."

Nick Fury countered:
"I am doing my best to protect the people."

Pierce said:
“My enemy is your enemy, Nick.”

"Chaos, war, dirty bomb attacks on Moscow or EMP bombing of Chicago are only a matter of time."

"Through diplomacy?"

“Treating the symptoms rather than the root cause.”

“You know where I figured this out, Columbia.”

“You didn’t ask, you just did what you were supposed to do.”

Pierce then looked at Smith Doyle and said:
"However, there is now a more suitable candidate. He is more suitable than you to take charge of S.H.I.E.L.D."

"Cough...cough...It's a pity I won't live to see the day when Earth becomes a cosmic empire."

At this moment, Smith Doyle looked at Nick Fury and said:
“Nick Fury, you’ll have to undergo a memory check later too.”

Nick Fury refused:
"I do not accept."
