A person is writing a diary in an American comic book, and Iron Man collapses at the beginning.

Chapter 108 Hydra: Iron Man Must Die!

Of course.

Besides Hawkeye Barton and Black Widow, there is also Coulson.

These three S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, "verified" by the diary, will be Nick Fury's most trusted subordinates at this stage.

Even so, this "most trusted" rating only reached 70% trust.

That's just Nick Fury's personality; he's never completely trusted anyone.

For him, 70% is actually considered high.

"Barton..."

"Natasha..."

After recalling his two most capable subordinates, Lu Dan issued a series of top-secret orders to them.

These two hard and sturdy bricks were thrown into the battlefield where Nick Fury needed them most right now.

What battlefield?

Naturally, it was a secret operation against Hydra.

"From now on, this line will be our dedicated encrypted line."

"If you discover anything, contact me immediately via this encrypted line."

"Alright, go ahead and get busy."

After giving Barton and Black Widow a few more instructions, Lu Dan waved his hand and sent the two away.

As for Lu Dan himself?

After Black Widow and Barton got up and left, he hesitated for a moment, then also got up and left.

After employing counter-surveillance tactics to ensure he wasn't being followed, Nick Fury drove his car directly to a highly secretive base.

That's right, it was the research base that Lu Dan had secretly set up to study whip technology.

"Sir!"

Not long after we entered a room...

A man dressed in a white coat, looking like a scientist, quickly approached Nick Fury.

In his hand, he was also carrying an exquisitely crafted box, the contents of which remained a mystery.

However, after Lu Dan nodded slightly, his one eye fell directly on the box.

On the surface, he remained calm, but deep down, he was still very much looking forward to it.

"Is the final testing complete?"

After turning his gaze away, Lu Dan casually glanced at the researcher and asked in a deep voice.

"It's finished, but some specific parameters still need to be set according to personal preferences."

"That's why I invited you here."

The researchers immediately began to brief Nick Fury on the situation.

"Let's begin then."

After a moment's hesitation, Nick Fury stood up and took off his stylish trench coat.

clap clap!

Seeing this, the researcher quickly opened the exquisite box and took out a special "vest" from it.

At first glance, the vest looked just like a bulletproof vest, but it was thicker and more complicated than a regular bulletproof vest.

Two additional "wires" were branched off and connected to two boxing glove-like objects.

After examining the braised eggs briefly, he didn't hesitate much.

With the researcher's assistance, he quickly put on the "device".

And it started up quickly.

hum!

The chest area of ​​that "vest" immediately began to shimmer with a dazzling light.

The same applies to the gauntlets in Lu Dan's hands.

At first glance, it exudes the aesthetic appeal of high technology and has a very sophisticated feel.

Lu Dan carefully assessed his current state, then, without further hesitation, strode to a stone pier that had been prepared beforehand.

"drink!"

He let out a low growl and slammed his fist hard against the stone block.

boom!

A loud bang immediately followed.

The stone pillar was shattered into pieces by Nick Fury's single punch, turning into a pile of debris.

Lu Dan nodded secretly, actually quite satisfied with the power.

Even if Captain America came, he wouldn't be much different, would he?

However, as a top-tier secret agent, Nick Fury naturally doesn't easily reveal his feelings on his face.

He remained expressionless throughout and conducted another series of tests.

About ten minutes later, Lu Dan finally took off the "vest".

"You're still too heavy. I need you to lose weight to under 20 kilograms."

"Also, the sensitivity has been reduced by three points."

As he casually handed the "vest" to the researcher, Nick Fury solemnly stated his requirements.

The researcher immediately looked troubled: "Sir, this weight is already the lowest it can be after weighing all the trade-offs. If it's any lighter, it might affect the functionality."

"I don't want to hear this, and I don't care about it."

"I asked you to come here because you are the most outstanding expert in this field. Will you make me regret this decision?"

"you tell me?"

Nick Fury truly lived up to his reputation as the king of secret agents; with just a casual glance, he instilled immense pressure in the other person.

This makes the other person subconsciously unable to refute it.

"Okay, I'll discuss it with my team again."

After a moment's thought, the researcher agreed to the braised egg's request.

How long can the existing energy sources support full-power operation?

Nick Fury thought of another question and asked it casually again.

"This is a simplified reactor, which can only provide power for a maximum of five minutes."

The researchers provided the following answer.

Five minutes?

The braised eggs were naturally very unsatisfactory.

"Double this time!"

Nick Fury, of course, once again made a very difficult request of the other party.

"Sir, if I may be so bold, that's impossible."

"Before I brought you here, this kind of small-scale reactor energy source was impossible, so don't tell me it's impossible!"

Lu Dan didn't waste any more words with the other party, forcefully issued the task, and then sent the other party away.

"Boss."

After the researcher left, Nick Fury summoned the person in charge of the base.

After a brief exchange, Lu Dan gave the other party another order: "Prepare to move to the new location within fifteen days."

"Another relocation?"

The base's commander expressed extreme surprise, as the base had actually been secretly relocated once.

And now, after such a short time, it's happening again?

What the base leader could never have known was that Nick Fury had been able to sense the countless invisible eyes of Hydra all this time!

To be honest, while the whip technique is impressive, it's really not that bad.

Normally, even someone as worldly-wise as Nick Fury wouldn't take it to this level.

However, this is now a war against Hydra!

Ludan would never accept defeat in this war, nor would he allow this technology to fall into the hands of Hydra.

In addition, this matter also involves the open and covert struggle between the braised eggs and Hydra, and Nick Fury also plans to use this base to set up a trap.

And as it turned out, Nick Fury's scheme was very successful.

Just two months later, Hydra successfully located this secret base and obtained the relevant technology after it had been "polished" by braised eggs.

"Sir, we have obtained the data on the whiplash, and the technical team is currently verifying and analyzing it."

Inside the top-floor office of the Tri-wing Building.

Upon hearing the report from the high-ranking undercover agent on the other side, Alexander Pierce couldn't help but reveal a satisfied smile.

After such a long time, finally, there is some good news.

God knows just how depressed Pierce has been these past few months.

The Stern affair had barely ended, and Pierce hadn't even fully recovered from the financial pain when the Winter Soldier's base was taken over by the Starks.

Not only did Hydra lose the Winter Soldier, a sharp dagger, but in the past few months, Nick Fury has also taken a huge bite out of them.

Even considering Stern's previous losses, Hydra, with its vast resources, is finding it difficult to withstand the pressure.

The acquisition of the whip technique was arguably the only consolation.

"very good!"

"This is exactly what we need right now!"

"I want to see results as quickly as possible!"

Alexander Pierce’s approving voice rang out, and the old man’s eyes lit up again.

Although Hydra had been secretly studying Captain America's blood sample for some time, they had made no progress whatsoever.

This technology, which clearly originated from World War II, seems to be sealed by a spell, and no one can unveil its mystery.

Although it's rather frustrating, Alexander Pierce has to admit this fact:

It seems unlikely that a replacement for the Winter Soldier can be found in the short term.

Of course.

Several other super soldiers are indeed still frozen inside the base in Siberia.

However, those super soldiers are very unstable, and even Hydra cannot completely control them.

Therefore, Pierce would not consider deploying those super soldiers unless absolutely necessary.

In this context, the importance of whip rope techniques becomes even more apparent.

"Understood, sir!"

The senior undercover agent immediately responded with a firm and resounding voice.

"How's the investigation going with Stark?"

Pierce nodded, satisfied with the senior undercover agent's attitude, and then asked another question that he was more concerned about.

"I was just about to report this to you, sir."

"The reason Stark suddenly attacked our base is because he discovered that the Winter Soldier was the murderer of his parents."

"Stark went there for revenge."

"As for Nick Fury, he didn't act suspiciously in this matter; he was just alerted by the commotion Stark caused."

Upon hearing this report, Alexander Pierce couldn't help but frown.

Did Stark actually know the truth about the Howards' deaths?

How could this happen?

So many years have passed since then, the matter should have been settled long ago.

Why did Tony Stark suddenly discover this extremely hidden truth so many years after everything had already been settled?

Could it be because of what Stern did?

After all, Stern's "downfall," or rather the exposure of Stern's Hydra identity, was due to Tony Stark's secret investigation of him.

Alexander Pierce didn't actually know what Tony Stark had found out that time.

Apart from Tony Stark himself and Nick Fury, no one else knows for sure.

But now it seems that Tony Stark has found out quite a bit.

Of course, Pierce also believed that Tony Stark probably didn't find anything about the Winter Soldier when he investigated Stern.

After all, even that good-for-nothing Stern didn't know about the Winter Soldier, and there was no overlap between the two.

But it's clear that Tony Stark must have discovered something crucial and then secretly conducted further investigations and digging.

Finally, they discovered the Winter Soldier and uncovered the truth behind the murder of his parents!

Furthermore, they uncovered the Winter Soldier's secret base once again.

That should be how it looks.

Alexander Pierce couldn’t think of any other more reasonable reason.

"That good-for-nothing!"

"They're more trouble than they're worth!"

Thinking about this, Alexander Pierce couldn't help but curse Stern in his heart.

Look at how much trouble and loss that good-for-nothing has caused Hydra!

"How much does the Stark know about us now?"

After quickly calming himself down, Pierce raised his head again and looked at the high-ranking undercover agent in front of him, asking a question.

"We have no idea how much Stark actually found out."

"But one of our databases was once compromised and accessed by an unknown IP address."

The senior undercover agent gave a very pessimistic answer: "Although we can't find out who breached our defenses, the timing of the breach coincides with the time when the Starks attacked our base."

Hammer it!

There is no doubt about it.

The guy who broke into that database must be Tony Stark.

Putting aside the timing, even from a technical standpoint, who else but that genius could have accomplished this?

So both Pierce and the high-ranking undercover agent were convinced that Tony Stark was behind this.

So Alexander Pierce's expression immediately turned ugly.

"It seems Stark must have learned quite a bit."

After a moment of silence, Pierce finally let out a deep sigh.

Even disregarding the fact that Tony Stark breached their database, the fact that he managed to locate the Winter Soldier's base speaks volumes.

That playboy must be holding something shocking.

This is not a good thing for Pierce.

"Sir, what should we do with Stark?"

The voice of a high-ranking undercover agent rang out, and the other party asked Pierce this crucial question in a serious tone.

If it were someone else, there would be absolutely no doubt about it; they could simply send someone to eliminate them.

Tony Stark's status was too special, and assassinating him would have too great an impact, which is why a high-ranking undercover agent sought Pierce's opinion.

"Any stumbling block that hinders the development of Hydra must be eliminated."

"Without exception!"

Alexander Pierce, however, was absolutely certain.

Even if it's Tony Stark, so what?

Anyone who gets in Hydra's way must die!
