A certain American comic book's secondary profession master

Chapter 73 SHIELD is really inefficient right now!
Late at night, at a dock near the Hudson River in Hell's Kitchen, a cargo ship bearing the RAND Corporation logo slowly entered the harbor and docked.

At the port, Madam Gao, along with a group of Hand ninjas and peripheral members, quietly awaited the arrival of the ship.

Before the ship had even come to a complete stop, a figure dressed in a white ninja outfit appeared from the side of the ship, then flipped over and landed on the harbor.

"Madam Gao!" The ninja approached Madam Gao, bowed respectfully in greeting, and then raised his head.

It was Yoshioka Nobu, who had just come from Japan.

As a disciple of the village, Yoshioka Shin did not dare to act presumptuously in front of Madam Taka, who was one of the five fingers of his master.

Although Japan has a tradition of subordinates overthrowing superiors, you have to have the power to do so.

Despite the fact that Madam Gao in front of me was leaning on a cane and appeared old and frail, I was still in a bad mood.

However, Yoshioka Nobu knew very well that it would be very easy for the other party to kill him.

Moreover, Mrs. Gao was not there to greet him, but to wait for the cargo on the ship—a whole ship full of flour raw materials had come to New York with Yoshioka Shin this time.

"Yes, it's good that you've arrived!" Mrs. Gao simply nodded in response to the respectful Yoshioka Nobu.

He then signaled his men to board the ship and begin unloading the cargo.

But soon, Madam Gao and Yoshioka Nobu realized something was wrong.

After his men boarded the ship, they made no further moves.

The ship had become unusually quiet ever since Yoshioka Shin disembarked.

"What's going on?" Madam Gao's sharp gaze swept over Yoshioka Nobuoki.

"I'll go check right away!" Yoshioka Shin hurriedly bowed, then drew his katana and rushed onto the ship with the remaining few followers beside him.

This time, with Yoshioka Shin as a master, the Hand Association that boarded the ship remained completely silent.

Soon, sounds of fighting erupted from the ship.

Upon hearing this, Madam Gao narrowed her eyes.

Because she could hear it clearly, the so-called sounds of fighting were actually just the shouts of the Hand-Gang ninjas and Yoshioka Shin himself.

The unknown attacker remained remarkably quiet.

He is a master!

Mrs. Gao quickly made her judgment.

It was at this moment that Yoshioka Shin, who had previously displayed the demeanor of a master, was knocked off the ship.

Before he even landed, a disc-shaped object swept past Yoshioka Shin's body.

This "expert" was cleaved in two, not even having a chance to land, and fell directly into the river between the boat and the dock.

After splitting Yoshioka Shin in two, the disc collided with two containers and then flew back to the hand of a figure wielding a long sword who had appeared on the ship at an extremely strange angle.

With the help of the dim lights on the cargo ship, Mrs. Gao was able to see clearly that the disc-shaped object was a shield.

"Who are you?" Madam Gao looked at the figure standing in the shadows, narrowed her eyes, and said coldly.

“I am the person you are looking for, Peggy Carter, chairman of Carter Investment Group… Of course, you can also call me… Captain Britain!” A figure holding a shield in one hand and a sword in the other walked from the shadows into the light, introducing himself as he did so.

It was Peggy Carter.

When Peggy Carter founded Carter Investment Group, she used her real name directly without any attempt to conceal it.

It's just that it's quite normal for Europeans and Americans to share the same name, and Peggy Carter isn't as well-known as Captain America.

In addition, she has now become young again, so far no one has realized that she is that legendary female agent.

Including Mrs. Gao in front of her. "Captain Britain? Just as I expected... You're no ordinary person." Only now did Mrs. Gao get a clear look at Peggy Carter's appearance and attire.

It is quite similar to Captain America, except that the star and stripe pattern on the costume and shield has been replaced with the Union Jack pattern representing the United Kingdom.

Unlike the early Captain America, he didn't wear a hood.

It's exactly the outfit of Captain Carter from the If series.

The only difference was that she now held a rather gleaming longsword.

“Is there anything else to say?” Carter asked, raising his longsword and pointing it at Madam Gao.

Carter was actually very excited at this moment.

Tonight's battle was incredibly exhilarating for her.

As a top female agent, Carter's skills are actually very good.

The problem is that she was once just an ordinary human being.

Therefore, many of the more difficult moves are simply impossible to perform.

But now that she's a "super soldier," she can unleash her full potential like Captain America.

The Hand Society ninjas, who used to be a formidable opponent for her, are now completely out of her league.

Even Yoshioka Shin, the "expert" she had seen in the intelligence reports, was almost powerless against her.

Carter absolutely loved this feeling.

"Ms. Carter, may I address you as such?" Despite Peggy Carter's assertiveness, Mrs. Gao remained calm and asked.

“What are you trying to say?” Carter asked.

"You came to Hell's Kitchen, actually for the dragon bones, right?" Madam Gao asked.

“So what if it is? So what if it isn’t?” Carter said.

“If you’re only after the dragon bones, we can actually cooperate… With your strength, the Hand would be completely at your beck and call, and all you have to do is share some of the dragon bones with us afterwards… The dragon bones in Hell’s Kitchen are huge and intact, enough for us to use for thousands of years!” Madam Gao extended an olive branch to Carter.

"...I thought you were going to say something, but that's all? Sorry, I have absolutely no interest in your Hand, and your actions, especially the addition of the 'predicate' in your name, disgust me. Dragonbone in your hands will only add more darkness to this world!" Carter scoffed at Madam Gao's offer of recruitment.

I used to be in charge of S.H.I.E.L.D., the largest intelligence agency on Earth.

Can you see your tiny hands and your meeting?

"So there's no room for negotiation?" Mrs. Gao said coldly, unconcerned by Peggy Carter's sarcasm.

“Go talk to God, and my job is to send you to meet God!” Peggy Carter brandished her longsword and charged toward Madam Gao.

However, Madam Gao easily dodged Carter's attack, then struck Carter's shield with a backhand—and was sent flying by the rebound of her own attack, spitting out a mouthful of blood in mid-air.

Clearly, Mrs. Gao hadn't expected that Carter's shield could even reflect her anger.

However, the old man was cunning. He took advantage of the opportunity to distance himself from Cattra and then jumped into the Hudson River, making his escape.

Carter hadn't expected the other party to escape so decisively. Looking at the deep river, he ultimately decided not to jump in after them.

"All done, notify the police!" Carter said over the radio after seeing that Mrs. Gao had escaped and that he had taken care of the others.

Looking at the RAND Corporation cargo ship in front of him, Carter knew that tomorrow, with the news of the RAND Corporation smuggling and selling flour, Hell's Kitchen would officially change its name.

I wonder when S.H.I.E.L.D. and Hydra will discover my true identity... Tsk, S.H.I.E.L.D. is so inefficient these days! It's been so long, and they still haven't discovered my real identity!
Hurry up... this crappy Hand is really not enough for her to fight!
