At this moment, a figure suddenly burst into Alexander Pierce's office.
The person, dressed in a black overcoat regardless of the weather, with one eye covered by an eye patch, could only be Pierce's old friend, Nick Fury, the current Director of S.H.I.E.L.D..
"Nick, long time no see." Pierce smiled and stood up to greet his old friend. "I hear the Avengers are doing very well."
"Yes, they're doing great."
Nick Fury's expression was as still as an ancient well, like a regular, he familiar sat on the reception sofa in the World Security Council high-ranking official's office.
"It would be even better if my team members weren't facing threats to their lives."
"It seems someone doesn't want the Avengers to have an easy time of it." Pierce sat opposite Nick, asking while pouring him black tea.
"Are your team members still safe?"
"Black Widow is still safe." Nick Fury said calmly, he seemed to trust Pierce greatly, after all, the other party was his mentor, "I entrusted her to a suitable person and sent her on a secret mission."
"It seems you've fully integrated into your role as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D.."
Pierce poured the orange-red tea into two gold-rimmed white porcelain teacups, praising Nick Fury for doing a good job with his work, and subtly probing him.
"So, how did you arrange for Black Widow?"
Alexander Pierce could be said to be Nick Fury's mentor; they were the best 'friends' and the most trustworthy colleagues.
"I sent her to investigate some things." Nick Fury said, looking at his reflection in the teacup:
"This incident made me realize that S.H.I.E.L.D. is no longer safe internally, and for the sake of S.H.I.E.L.D.'s cause, I had no choice but to have Agent Black Widow carry out some unsavory tasks."
In that case, she deserves to die even more… Alexander Pierce thought to himself.
"Nick, no matter what decision you make, I will always be your strongest backing." Alexander said with a seemingly innocent face, making it seem as if he truly was Nick Fury's good friend.
"It's good fortune to have a friend like you, Pierce." Nick Fury didn't touch the black tea on the table; a smile appeared on his bald, egg-like face.
"It's been a pleasure talking to you, Pierce."
"Come find me anytime if you need anything."
After he finished speaking, Nick Fury left Pierce's office.
Unbeknownst to them, the two, who once shared a genuine friendship, had gradually drifted apart. Nick Fury got into his heavy SUV; the vehicle's defense was almost on par with the President's vehicle, befitting his status as Director of S.H.I.E.L.D..
Nick Fury pressed his finger into his ear, activating a hidden communicator, and then said, "Can you accept those lies?"
"You humans are truly complex, Fury." On the other end of the communicator was the Skrull, Talos. "My people have already replaced several key figures. As soon as you give the order, they will kill all of those guys' eyes within S.H.I.E.L.D.."
"Let them make the first move." Nick Fury said calmly, "Acting too early won't allow us to kill all the enemies."
"Whatever you say, I'm just an employee anyway." Talos said irritably, "Hanging up."
'Beep, beep, beep...'
After a few busy tones, Talos ended the communication, and Nick Fury drove away from Triskelion Base.
At the same time, Alexander Pierce in his office had a livid expression; he realized that Nick Fury had probably discovered something.
This black man, whom he had personally promoted, was simply a born Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. and truly inherited the concept of 'S.H.I.E.L.D.', which was the worst part, and also why he deserved to die.
But Pierce couldn't touch Nick yet; he needed Nick in that position, but the Master's orders had to be carried out: Kamen Rider and Black Widow had to die.
Especially the former; Pierce felt a splitting headache just hearing his name, almost as if he were a born enemy.
Several calls were made, and Pierce's hidden outposts across America began searching for Black Widow's whereabouts.
Finally, intelligence came from a hidden outpost in New Jersey, reporting a suspected sighting of Black Widow with a man and a woman.
New Jersey… Pierce realized something bad; there was a Base there with something hidden that could not be discovered by outsiders.
Thinking of this, Pierce prepared to use his strongest forces. He sent out several more messages, and several small teams immediately prepared to create special incidents in other parts of America to attract external attention.
And Pierce himself was going to activate his strongest force, a third-generation cyborg team he had just taken over from Whitehall.
This team's modification template chose gregarious locusts, totaling six, and their equipment was much richer than previous cyborgs.
Their skeletal hardness and heat resistance were further improved, and Ivan Vanko's mechanical technology was also incorporated during the modification process. They were equipped with locust-type exoskeleton armor, and mass-produced Ark Reactors were implanted in their abdomens to provide power for movement, and they could choose weapons based on battlefield conditions.
This team was simply named the 'Locust Soldiers Team,' with simple codenames from No.1 to No.6.
But since it was a team, it needed a Captain.
The position of Captain of the Locust Team was filled by the 'New Winter Soldier' Bucky Barnes, who had been subjected to numerous HYDRA black technologies.
His modification template was also a locust, but the New Winter Soldier, in terms of both physical strength and mechanical precision, far surpassed the mass-produced soldiers. After all, Bucky was an excellent experimental subject, and the more excellent the experimental subject, the higher the intensity of the modification surgeries he could withstand.
The current Bucky is undoubtedly the highest crystallization of HYDRA's cyborg technology, with strength directly comparable to Kamen Rider Geats during the Lizard Virus incident, an existence far superior to 'Zero' and her simple biological modifications!
Not to mention that the armor hardness is higher than that of mass-produced Locust Soldiers, the New Winter Soldier's waist is equipped with two palladium element Ark Reactors, with higher output than the mass-produced type.
And the mechanical arm, the Winter Soldier's biggest feature, has been fully reinforced; the originally single-function mechanical arm has been given multiple functions.
"Longing, rusted, 17, dawn, furnace, 9, kind, homecoming, 1, freight car."
As Pierce recited a series of words, the New Winter Soldier, who had been in a dormant state, opened his eyes. His red compound eyes lit up, signaling that the New Winter Soldier had entered combat mode.
"Good morning, Soldier." Pierce held out two photos to the New Winter Soldier. "Bury them in the dark corners."
The photos were of Kamen Rider Geats and Black Widow, respectively. The New Winter Soldier nodded, and heavy breathing came from behind his mask, as if his Master was ready for slaughter.
