Begin from the original form of torture and become immortal

Chapter 1792 Trading injury for injury
Steve roared, holding his massive arm, which contained all his strength, like the strongest tower shield, in front of him to meet the deathly green shadow that tore through the darkness.

There was no clanging of metal against metal, only a terrifying sound that made your teeth ache, as if thick leather were being forcibly torn apart by a giant blade.

Tsk-!
Rumlow's pair of mutated, terrifying bone claws, like reaping scythes from hell, slashed fiercely at the outside of Steve's right arm as he was blocking, accompanied by a shrill whistling sound as they sliced ​​through the water!
The deep blue keratinous skin covering Steve's arm was far tougher than any alloy known on Earth, strong enough to withstand direct fire from a tank's main gun.

However, against Rumlow's bone claws, which combined the biochemical sharpness of the Green Goblin serum, the brute force of the Hulk, and the toughness of Godzilla cells, this defense was like heated butter meeting a scalding hot knife!

The tip of the eerie green bone claw pierced through the tough blue keratin in an instant, wedging itself deep into the bulging muscles below!
Deep blue blood, dotted with strange, lava-like golden specks, gushed out from several gruesome wounds.

The blood seemed heavier and thicker than seawater. Instead of spreading rapidly, it writhed and sank heavily in the cold seawater like eerie blue pythons.

Severe pain!

It felt like a red-hot iron rod piercing straight into the bone, burning wildly along the nerves!

Steve's massive blue body jolted violently, and he let out a suppressed groan of pain.

The pain nearly tore his steely will apart, causing his raging, bestial instincts to surge to their peak.

But just as the excruciating pain struck, the twisted smile that had just appeared on Rumlow's face, covered in fine scales, suddenly froze!
For the first time, astonishment was clearly reflected in his vertical pupils, which gleamed with a cruel green light!
Steve's right arm, where the claws had pierced deep, and the terrifying muscles that resembled blue granite, did not instinctively recoil under the stimulation of excruciating pain. Instead, driven by pure willpower and transcending physical limits, it frantically contracted and tightened inward!
Each muscle fiber seemed to have its own independent life, tightly wrapping around and locking the deep-piercing, eerie green bone claws!

It feels like deliberately sticking your arm into a barbed trap, only to have it slam shut!
"Uh?!"

Rumlow's furious roar, mixed with electronic noise, exploded in Steve's mind.

He tried to pull back the bone claws, but found that they were as if they had been cast into the hardest alloy and did not move at all!
The terrifying strangulation force emanating from Steve's arm even caused his claws, which were infused with Godzilla's tough bones, to emit a chilling, subtle "crunching" sound!

Even more terrifying, the heavy blue blood gushing from Steve's arm wound acted like some kind of active bio-glue, firmly adhering to and enveloping his bone claws and some of his forearm scales, bringing a burning and sticky sensation as if he were being strongly corroded!

That's not a block at all!
This is a trap!

It was a cage that Steve had meticulously set up, at the cost of his flesh and blood and excruciating pain, specifically targeting his two most lethal weapons!
In the split second of Rumlow's shock, anger, and struggle, Steve's left eye, burning with blue flames, seemed to have molten lava flowing deep within its pupil.

His unbound left arm was already brimming with power enough to shatter mountains. All the pain, all the anger, all the will to protect—at this moment, all of it was poured into this ready-to-strike left fist!

The icy seawater surrounding the fist boiled violently because of this extremely concentrated power!
Countless tiny bubbles appeared out of thin air, burst, and formed a brief but dazzling white mist!

That wasn't steam, but rather the cavitation effect created by the force being compressed to its limit, instantly displacing seawater!
The white mist enveloped Steve's massive blue fist, like a miniature sun illuminating the deep sea!

Steve's silent roar was like the beating of war drums.

Ignoring the tearing pain in his right arm, he unleashed a force as powerful as a landslide and tsunami from the core of his body, twisting his waist violently!
That left fist, imbued with all will and power, tore through the boiling seawater, carrying a destructive cavitation shockwave, and slammed into Rumlow's right rib, covered in dark scales, which was temporarily exposed due to his arm being locked!
The trajectory of this punch was precise, concise, and without any frills. It carried the essence of Steve Rogers' lifelong fighting art, as well as the devastating pure power of Bruce Banner after his transformation!

The shock in Rumlow's vertical pupils was instantly overshadowed by the shadow of death!
He could clearly feel the terrifying power gathered on that fist, enough to completely pierce through his mutated body!
He let out a sharp, piercing screech, and the scales covering his body flared wildly in an attempt to dissipate the force as much as possible in order to survive.

At the same time, his thick, bony tail, like an angry giant whip, lashed out at Steve's head and left shoulder with a muffled thud as it cleaved through the water!
This is an attack on what the enemy must defend, an attempt to force Steve to abandon this fatal punch!
Bang—Crack!

The dullest impact sound, accompanied by the chilling sound of bones shattering, rang out almost simultaneously!
Steve's all-encompassing punch landed squarely on Rumlow's right ribs!

A terrifying burst of power!

Rumlow's ribs, with their scales and reinforced bones strong enough to withstand the pressure of deep sea water, were instantly covered with spiderweb-like cracks, like glass struck by a heavy hammer!
Large swathes of dark scales flew off!
A clear, deep, indented fist mark was imprinted on Rumlow's side!

Dark, fluorescent, viscous blood gushed out like a fountain from the gaps in the shattered scales and from Rumlow’s painfully open, tooth-filled mouth!

"puff--!"

Blood mixed with fragments of internal organs gushed out.

Almost at the same millisecond, Rum Ronna’s desperately whipping tail slammed into Steve’s left shoulder and part of his head as he parried!
The tail tip, covered with bony plates, possesses the same power to split mountains and shatter rocks!
Steve's blue head swung violently to the right, and the blue keratin layer on his left shoulder cracked under the strain. The huge impact made his vision go black, and his body staggered to the side involuntarily. The lock on his right arm to Rumlow's bone claws also loosened instantly!
“Hiss—!”

Rumlow seized the fleeting opportunity and let out a roar that was a mixture of pain and rage.

He suddenly poured energy into the locked bone claw on his right arm, and the eerie green blade light surged!
With a louder, more piercing tearing sound, he forcefully pulled his bone claws out of Steve's muscle constriction and the binding of the viscous blue blood!
