A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 68 You're So Filial

Normally, the five Winter Soldiers are quite good at hiding.

However, this ability to conceal oneself only applies to ordinary people.

For martial artists like Bo Tu who use "qi," their violent aura is a bit too obvious.

So before the five Winter Soldiers could completely encircle them, the gambler discovered them.

Realizing he had fallen into a trap, he immediately rushed towards one of them without hesitation.

He attempted to repel one of the other Winter Soldiers before they completely surrounded him, and then escape.

Like many major villains, Bottom and the other four fingers are quite confident in their own abilities at times.

At least in this era before superheroes have emerged, those who have lived for countless years, apart from the True Pure Society and Kunlun, have rarely encountered opponents who could threaten their lives.

Especially gamblers.

When collecting information on martial arts schools and dojos from around the world, I always approach it with a playful mindset.

They enjoy manipulating people's hearts, clearing away all obstacles before appearing as saviors.

He took in the children he had left destitute as his disciples, making them extremely grateful to him.

His intentions were extremely malicious.

However, being confident in his own abilities doesn't mean he's stupid.

The five Winter Soldiers exuded such a powerful aura that they were clearly prepared.

Without knowing what tricks the other party has up their sleeve.

A direct confrontation is clearly the most foolish choice.

Therefore, his first choice was to escape.

And the direction he chose for his breakthrough.

She was the only woman among the five whose aura was relatively weak, Kaminski.

Unfortunately, the other party's preparations were far more thorough than he had imagined.

The gambler unleashed a powerful blow that slammed into Kaminsky's abdomen.

However, the scene that Botu wanted to see—himself sending someone flying with a single punch—did not occur.

The seemingly powerful attack only made Kaminsky sway slightly.

This situation greatly surprised the gamblers.

Under normal circumstances, although the Winter Soldier is physically strong, he can still fight against a martial artist like the Bottom who controls ki, even without using weapons.

The problem is, the five Winter Soldiers standing in front of him now have superpowers!

A potent defensive potion that increases armor by 450 points.

Brute Force Potion: Increases Strength and Endurance by 18 points.

This directly elevated the Winter Soldier's physique to a whole new level.

The gambler's attacks have no effect on him.

Kaminsky grinned menacingly and delivered a powerful backhand punch to Botu's face.

And it's right at the bridge of the nose.

It made the gambler's eyes see stars.

Meanwhile, the other four Winter Soldiers were already in position, completely surrounding the Bottom.

"Crack! Crack! Crack! Crack!" The four worked in perfect unison, and the sounds of four limbs breaking rang out almost simultaneously.

As one of the five fingers of the Hand, Bottom had his limbs broken by the Winter Soldier, and he screamed in agony, losing all ability to resist.

"Take him away!" Just then, Li Wei appeared on the scene and opened the portal.

Five Winter Soldiers then carried the helpless Bottomless to the League headquarters through a portal.

The interrogation followed immediately.

Li Wei originally thought that interrogating such an old monster who had lived for a long time would be a rather difficult task.

Li Wei also prepared many methods of torture for him. As for mind control...

It seems like it works very well, but in reality, this skill depends heavily on the willpower of the person being used on.

Li Wei also had several members of the alliance test this out.

As a result, it only works well for Tony and Jessica, as well as the Winter Soldier who have been brainwashed for a long time.

The effect was less effective against Frank and the Black Widows, lasting only a few seconds.

Therefore, Li Wei didn't expect this skill to work on old monsters like the gambler.

However, to Li Wei's surprise...

All his preparations for torture were in vain.

It was just a casual question.

Bottom readily revealed the location of the Hand's headquarters and hideout in New York, as well as the location of some of the Dragon Bones he owned.

Their coordination was absolutely incredible.

However, the gambler said he didn't know the whereabouts of the other four fingers.

Because the five fingers of the hand are connected by the same breath.

But most of the time, they are actually separate.

Like the heads of Hydra, they each act independently.

There are also conflicts of interest among the five people.

Only when the issue of the keel is involved will the five of them reach a consensus and work together.

"It seems that the saying that the longer you live, the more afraid you are of death is not unfounded!" Li Wei handed the interrogation results to Tony, who had just arrived at headquarters.

The Bottom's headquarters is a martial arts academy in Brooklyn, which also serves as a training ground for Hand spies.

The Hand's headquarters in New York was located on the territory of the Japanese in Hell's Kitchen.

“Maybe he thinks the rest of the Hand can handle us?” Tony glanced at the group and said.

"Then you're just overthinking it. Frank has already made arrangements at the academy. Shall we go together?" Li Wei asked.

There's no need to touch the Hand headquarters right now; what the Brawler's own portion of the dragon bone is what they need.

"Forget it, there's no need. I'll arrange for someone to take over later. By the way, how's your potion coming along?" Tony had absolutely no interest in becoming a hero at that martial arts academy.

It's supposedly a training ground for Hand spies, but in reality, most of the people there are teenagers recruited by the Bounty Hunters from all over the world, and they probably don't even have proper identification documents.

Instead of punishing these children as heroes, it would be better to arrange for someone to clean up the mess.

Aside from the children who have already been brainwashed by the Hand's secret key and become die-hard Hand loyalists, the remaining children also need to be cared for.

For these children, the martial arts academy, though a den of iniquity, was also a kind of home.

Once destroyed, these children will have nowhere to go.

Since their alliance is going to do the right thing, they can't just focus on eliminating evil; they also need to do a good job of cleaning up the mess afterward.

Of course, it also depends on ability.

Coincidentally, Tony, as the world's richest man, has this ability.

"It's finished, shall I give it to you now?" Li Wei nodded upon hearing this.

"Um, are you sure that the drug won't have any side effects, right?" Although Tony was very much looking forward to the Titan Elixir, he couldn't help but feel a little uneasy. After all, the Super Soldier Elixir had been researched since World War II and there had always been various problems.

In comparison, this Titan Elixir is far too easy to obtain, except that the materials are a bit rare.

It was so easy that he could hardly believe it.

"Don't worry about that. Anything from Kamar-Taj is guaranteed to be top-notch, and it's even personally approved by the Sorcerer Supreme!" Li Wei raised an eyebrow, once again using the Ancient One and Kamar-Taj as leverage.

"Ahem, how about we do what we agreed before and try it on Ms. Carter first?" Tony asked tentatively.

“…Speaking of which, Ms. Carter could be considered your aunt, right? You’re really quite filial!” Li Wei said with a smirk.
