A Marine Admiral in the Marvel Universe

“Gwen, I…I’m pregnant…” Kem said worriedly.

"Wh...what?" Gwen couldn't help but exclaim in surprise. In a corner not far away, Cao Gui, who was looking straight ahead, also cast a surprised glance at her.

No wonder Kem was so distracted, so that's why... But come to think of it, isn't she a devout Catholic?

Pregnancy before marriage is against Catholic doctrine. In the original story, the reason she survived in Paris, unlike Amanda who died, was because the Albanians saw that she was still a virgin and could fetch a good price.

"How could this happen?" Gwen asked in a deep voice. In the United States, abortion is a big deal. If we don't do this... Kem is only 18 years old and hasn't even finished school.

"I...I don't know either..." Kem's face fell, his eyes were slightly red, and he was about to cry.

Cao Gui shook his head. Sure enough, people can't be too idle, otherwise they are prone to trouble. It's only been a month or two of vacation, and Kem has already caused a death.

Gwen scratched her head and could only try to comfort him, saying a lot of nice things. Under her comforting words, Kem's emotions gradually stabilized.

Just then, two people in casual clothes walked into the coffee shop. Cao Gui raised an eyebrow. "Coulson and Melinda?"

"May, the usual, a latte?" Coulson chuckled.

“Of course,” Melinda nodded.

Cao Gui's lips twitched. He had personally killed Coulson, shooting him in the temple, but now, this man was alive and kicking right in front of him.

Interesting… Cao Gui glanced at Coulson out of the corner of his eye and saw a faint scar on his temple, indicating that he had indeed killed this person, without a double or anything like that.

Did S.H.I.E.L.D. acquire the technology to bring the dead back to life? Cao Gui's heart skipped a beat, and he began to recall the relevant plot. It seemed that such a thing did indeed exist.

With Nick Fury's support, Coulson later created a new team, which he led around the world searching for Hydra, and also brought to light a superhuman race called the Inhumans.

Cao Gui's attention immediately shifted from Gwen and Kem to Melinda and Coulson. Judging from their clothes, they were clearly on vacation and not currently working.

Soon, Coulson returned with the drinks.

"It's rare for me to come out today..." Melinda said with a smile, taking a small sip of her latte.

"Yes, it's a bit oppressive in the office."

"How is your idol doing now?" Melinda asked with a smile.

"Not bad," Coulson said with a smile. "The medical department has finished the examination, and he should wake up in a few days."

"It's amazing, it's been frozen for a full seventy years..." Melinda's expression was strange.

Chapter 294 The NYPD's Mild Enforcement

Cao Gui picked up his cup, took a small sip of coffee, and enjoyed a seventy-year-old popsicle... Coulson's idol... must be Captain America, it seems S.H.I.E.L.D. has found Captain America.

“That’s good,” Melinda said. “It seems we can now contend with Tony Stark’s abilities, and Natasha won’t have to keep running away.”

Upon hearing this, Coulson's lips twitched. He had no idea what was going on. He woke up to find that S.H.I.E.L.D. and Tony Stark were locked in a life-or-death struggle.

Not only that, Tony Stark went crazy, constantly chasing after Natasha and beating her. Whenever a surveillance camera in the world captured Natasha's face, Tony Stark would chase after her and bombard her with attacks.

If it weren't for Natasha's extensive combat experience, and if it weren't for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s global rescue capabilities and Barton's occasional rescues, Natasha would never have truly died... no, she would have been completely wiped out.

We're all women, why should women make things difficult for each other?

Coulson was speechless for a moment, but once Captain America recovered, he should make Tony Stark think twice... right?

Coulson looked worried. The world was changing too fast. He had only been asleep for a few months, and things had become so complicated.

Cao Gui slowly stirred his coffee, his face expressionless, lost in thought.

"We'll be parting ways tomorrow, and the workload is getting heavier." Melinda smiled, but her mood was a little sour.

"The mission is classified, we can't talk about it." Coulson shook his head and said softly. He was in charge of the Tesseract's research base, which controlled the entire Tesseract. This was a secret even within S.H.I.E.L.D.

Apart from the director and the committee, no other unrelated people should be allowed to know.

Just as Cao Gui was engrossed in listening, a fragrant breeze wafted from the side, and a blonde girl suddenly sat down opposite Cao Gui.

"Huh? Gwen..." Cao Gui finally realized that he had been discovered.

"Hmph, how did you get here?" Gwen snorted irritably.

“I…” Cao Gui’s eyes darted around, and he laughed, “I’ll take the stairs. This is America, taking the stairs is quick.”

Gwen rolled her eyes. This guy was just trying to fool her. She really didn't know how she had fallen for him. Could it be that she simply liked him?

"Where is Kem?"

“She’s gone,” Gwen said. “She’s much better now, but she still has some fear of marriage and pregnancy. She’ll be fine after a few days of peace and quiet.”

Cao Gui shrugged: "What if she gets stuck in a rut? This kind of situation can easily lead to depression."

"Shut up." Gwen was exasperated. "Can't you say something nice?"

Cao Gui shrugged. "I'm just stating a fact. If a woman is pregnant out of wedlock at eighteen, in my previous life, my father would probably have grabbed a stick and gone to settle scores with the other man. In more serious cases, he might have even broken his legs."

"Let's get down to business," Cao Gui changed the subject. "What should we do next?"

“I don’t know.” Gwen rolled her eyes. “You’re a man. You don’t need to ask my opinion on this kind of thing. Just take me with you. I will always listen to your opinion.”

Cao Gui shrugged. Gwen is always so good and so obedient.

"Let's go back to New York. Los Angeles is no fun at all."

"Ah...oh, okay."

……

Half a day later, Cao Gui and Gwen landed at John F. Kennedy International Airport, located in Queens, where Peter Parker's home is. A little to the south is Brooklyn, Captain America's hometown.

Cao Gui bought a new car and instead of going to Long Island, took Gwen back to New Jersey. However, Queens is quite far from New Jersey; Manhattan Island is to the west of Queens, and New Jersey is to the west of Manhattan Island.

"It would be so much better to just land at Newark Airport..." Gewen complained irritably. Newark is in New Jersey, and you can just take a taxi home.

"It's fun!" Cao Gui laughed. "I haven't driven in a long time, so I'll drive a few more times this time."

"We can find time later, anyway, we're on vacation right now." Gwen rolled her eyes.

"Hmm... I'm afraid that won't work." Cao Gui gripped the steering wheel and shook his head slightly. "We'll be busy from now on."

He plans to focus on training during this period. Now that he has both the domineering aura and the fruit, he needs to become stronger as soon as possible.

“Okay.” Gwen nodded after hearing Cao Gui’s words. Although she didn’t know what Cao Gui was going to do, she still supported him.

Cao Gui stepped on the gas pedal, flooring it instantly. The engine roared, and the speed increased dramatically, propelling the car forward like a cannonball.

"Wow!" Cao Gui laughed heartily, constantly adjusting the steering wheel in his hands. With his current reaction speed, he was more than capable of handling high-speed racing, and he wouldn't be afraid even on the F1 circuit.

However, as soon as they entered Manhattan, Gwen's expression changed in the passenger seat.

"Honey, what's wrong?" Cao Gui tilted his head and asked curiously.

"Damn, there's been a shootout between two men on East 415th Street. One of the assailants has stolen a police car," Gwen said, taking off one of her earpieces.

"The man in the car is a dangerous individual with a gun and is a very accurate shot. He has already killed two people along the way."

"Huh?" Cao Gui was full of questions. I understand the logic, but what does this have to do with us?

“The dispatch center sent Dad to chase after him; he happens to be on duty nearby,” Gwen said, noticing Cao Gui’s confusion.

"Okay, let's go take a look."

Cao Gui's lips twitched. His father-in-law had caused trouble again. He jerked the steering wheel and drove south.

On the street, a police car painted with NYPD was speeding along, with the accelerator floored, ignoring the speed limit signs and the crowds on the roadside.

In the driver's seat, a face with a bitter and resentful expression, yet also somewhat naive, was covered in sweat as he stared intently at the rearview mirror. If Cao Gui were here, he would easily recognize this super agent, Jason Bourne.

Behind him, a black Santana followed closely, with a head occasionally popping out of the car and firing a silenced pistol.

Two cars collide in broad daylight, gunfire erupts, and cars spin around, performing a variety of thrilling stunts.

This situation quickly reached the ears of the NYPD, especially since they had also stolen a NYPD police car. In the eyes of the NYPD, this behavior was an insult to them, and George immediately arrived with an armored vehicle.

Puff puff!

Three bullets were fired from inside the black Santana, shattering Jason Bourne's car window. One of the bullets even grazed Bourne's neck, narrowly missing him.

Damn it!

Bourne's expression changed, but at that moment, the black Santana suddenly swerved and crashed hard into Bourne's car.

With a loud crash, Bourne's car instantly lost its balance and was violently pushed away by the black Santana. This is called an American-style stop, specifically designed to deal with suspects fleeing at high speeds.

However, before the two could even rejoice, the wailing of police sirens came from afar. Before the fight between the two vehicles was over, NYPD armored vehicles arrived in front of them.

A massive 12.7mm heavy machine gun was pointed at the two men: "You are surrounded. Put down your weapons and surrender immediately, or we have the right to kill you."

The two men, who were fighting to the death, immediately stopped what they were doing and obediently put down their 9mm pistols.

They know NYPD's nature very well; they hold the world record for the fastest pistol shooting, and they certainly wouldn't mind trying to break that record with a heavy machine gun.

Soon, under George's command, several heavily armed SWAT officers tied up both agents.

Not far away, Cao Gui, who had just arrived, looked completely bewildered: "Gwen... it seems like George doesn't need our help at all."

Gwen's lips twitched: "How was I supposed to know they'd be using armored vehicles to deal with carjackers..."

Chapter 295 School Starts?

The night was bright and the stars were few. The moon hung high in the sky, with only a few sparse clouds drifting by. But strangely, there was a thick, dark cloud below.

Above a desolate mountain in New Jersey, Cao Gui sat cross-legged above the autumn clouds, his upper body naked.

Boom!

A flash of lightning appeared overhead, followed by a deafening roar, and a bolt of silvery-white lightning struck down, landing directly on Cao Gui's head.

With a snap, Cao Gui's entire body crackled with electric arcs, his black hair stood on end, and his eyes flashed with uncertain lightning.

At that moment, a second bolt of thunder suddenly struck from within the dark clouds, followed by a third, a fourth, and a fifth...

Cao Gui's originally calm expression gradually turned to pain. Finally, he had no choice but to unleash black Armament Haki that spread from between his eyebrows and covered his entire body.

As countless bolts of lightning struck, the dark clouds began to thin, became transparent, and finally slowly disappeared.

Cao Gui slowly exhaled the turbid air from his chest, raised his arm, and the Armament Haki attached to it became even more intense and solid.
