I'm working on Marvel's Spider-Man in American comics.

Chapter 431 This is not a battle, but a war!

Hydra probably didn't expect that Steve Rogers could deduce the problem with Strucker Castle based on a Hydra deployment map from World War II—the map didn't even show Strucker Castle's location. Moreover, theoretically, if they wanted to capture all the strongholds on that map, Strucker Castle would actually be a breakthrough point.

Historically, this was also the case. With intelligence support, the Soviet army first captured Strac Castle, and then used it as a breakthrough point to breach all the Hydra fortresses. Because it had long served as a logistical center for the Soviet army, and later as a KGB stronghold in Hungary, the Soviets did not suspect that a huge underground city existed beneath this place.

Besides, the Soviets didn't believe in the existence of gods, so how could they have thought that Hydra was protected by gods?
After the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia still hasn't figured out the documents left behind. So Hydra didn't think Russia could find them at first. Even if it could, Russia doesn't have the energy to fight Hydra now.

Who would have thought they actually found this information and even sent it to S.H.I.E.L.D.

"We've reached our target. The assault team, control the drones to break in first. Once we confirm a counterattack, immediately launch missiles to bombard the entire fortress." Sylvia decisively issued the order: "We don't need prisoners. They're all Hydra bastards on the other side. It would be best if they all died."

Sylvia was as irritable as ever. Soon, accompanied by a burst of gunfire, the entire castle was bombarded into ruins by rockets from dozens of armed helicopters. After another round of rocket bombardment, the armed helicopters began to rain down from the air to cool it down. Then, Sylvia, wearing a rocket jetpack, arrived at the edge of the vertically descending, bottomless elevator shaft.

The Wild Wing sent about three hundred men to join the battle. It was uncertain whether there were any Hydra spies, but there was no time to think about that now. Spider Silk agents had already gone down to scout ahead.

Sylvia looked at Felicia, who had put on a jetpack: "You don't seem to be a combatant."

"Yes, but I have things to do. I have to take my revenge."

"You don't even know which Hydra agent killed your father."

Felicia hesitated for a moment, then nodded; she truly didn't know.

But that didn't stop her from killing every Hydra she encountered, just like Sylvia.

The Avengers overwhelmed the entire Hydra force in an instant. Putting aside the fact that these Hydra soldiers were just a group of trained soldiers, even with Thor and Hulk present, almost no one could stand against them.

"Thor, clear a path for Tony and Pym so they can deactivate the self-destruct system. We need to ensure the safety of Budapest." After the captain swung his shield and took down several Hydra soldiers, he saw Baron Strucker leisurely retreating. "The rest of you, act freely, be careful, and protect Tony and Pym!"

After saying that, the captain caught his shield and ran towards Strucker, determined to capture him and find Bucky.

As for Strucker, he seemed to have anticipated this, so after leaving the temple, he got into a hovercar and drove away quickly. In the rearview mirror, he saw the captain rushing towards him and couldn't help but purse his lips.

He really didn't expect that Captain America would actually catch up with the hovercar on his own two legs, then leap and land on the trunk lid, climbing onto the convertible Hydra hovercar.

“Captain, I truly admire your efforts, but you must understand that the moment you entered this place, it signified your doom.” Strucker smiled, activated the autopilot, and stood up towards the captain, then revealed his prosthetic arm: “This is a trap. From the moment you began investigating Hydra, this was your graveyard. I can guarantee that neither Tony Stark nor Hank Pym can crack Hydra’s programming.”

"I believe in my comrades, I believe in the Avengers."

The captain threw a punch at Strucker, who easily dodged it and gave the captain a mocking smile: "You're so outdated, Captain. You think you can take down Hydra? Wrong. You think Red Skull is everything to Hydra, just like Mustache is everything to the Third Reich? Without him, we'll completely collapse?"

"Hydra is an ideology, a mindset. We hold the absolute truth—free will can only bring chaos and disorder, and yet you are resisting it."

"That only proves that my war is not over yet, and that I came to this era for a reason."

The captain, gripping the trunk lid, kicked Strucker in the chest: "And you're the reason!"

"So it's fate, isn't it? Captain America and Hydra, whoever Hydra is, even if they're your former comrades or something else." Strucker, who had been kicked into the front seat, mocked. Upon hearing this, Captain America lunged forward and grabbed Strucker by the neck with both hands: "What did you do to Bucky and Jim!"

"As always, make them realize that order is more important than free will."

Strucker, whose neck was being choked, also used his prosthetic limb to choke the Captain's neck. Theoretically, his strength was certainly not as good as the Captain's, but he surpassed the Captain in one aspect: his prosthetic limb could absorb life force, and the Captain felt his life force rapidly draining away.

"This is your weakness, Captain, your humanity. You get agitated by your past emotions, and now, the Erkins serum within you is mine!"

Then, Strucker, who felt he had absorbed a large amount of Captain America's power, was punched away by the captain and rolled several times on the ground. The moment he stood up, his prosthetic limb was severed by the captain's shield, and the absorption of life stopped instantly.

The captain felt his power return, and Strucker before him had turned back into an old man.

“I’m not accepting your provocation, Strucker. I’m just making sure you don’t run away like Red Skull. I know better than anyone that the fight against Hydra has never been a vigilante operation by superheroes, but the extermination of fascists like you.”

"For you, there is no need to talk about human rights."
