Ch: 88-100

Chapter 88 T'Challa

Although Vision is merely an artificial intelligence, due to the Mind Stone on his head, Vision is able to understand and feel some of humanity's joys, angers, sorrows, and delights to a certain extent.

When he had just stated the results of his investigation, Vision clearly felt Captain America and the others' emotions instantly become agitated.

Seeing this, Vision, being very sensible, comforted them, saying, "I don't mean to blame you, I just want to say that there might be some causal relationship here. Our abilities attract many challenges, challenges provoke conflicts, and these conflicts will cause disasters."

"So I don't think we should resist Sokovia's regulatory system."

As soon as Vision finished speaking, Colonel Rhodes, who was standing beside him, immediately agreed.

In response, Captain America and the others had fallen silent.

The reason was none other than that Vision, the most objective member of the team, had chosen to comply with the Sokovia Accords.

It should be known that any decision Vision makes does not mix with any personal emotions; they are all the most objective results obtained after big data calculations.

Is the existence of the Avengers truly the root cause of all this chaos?

Even Captain America, who had always insisted on his own beliefs, felt a slight waver in his heart at this moment.

Just then, Tony, who had been silent for a long time, also recounted what had just happened at the school, and upon hearing this, Captain America said,

"Tony, you can't choose to surrender just because there were casualties in the battle!"

"We are not surrendering!"

"No, if we can't take responsibility for our actions, then that is surrender. This document is for shirking responsibility!"

Colonel Rhodes, standing to the side, quickly spoke up to stop him.

"Captain, I don't agree with you saying that about the Sokovia Accords. You need to know that what we are facing this time is the United Nations, not the World Security Council, not S.H.I.E.L.D., not HYDRA."

"But the people in the United Nations will have their own motives before they take any action, and they will make wrong decisions because their motives change!" Captain America said without reservation.

At this time, Tony also interjected, "You are absolutely right, precisely because things change. After I witnessed how much severe harm the weapons I produced brought to the World, I decisively chose to stop production."

"Yes, Tony, you chose to stop production, but if we choose to sign this agreement, then we will lose any right to choose."

"Think about it, what if a specialized team sends us to places we shouldn't go, and then makes us go to places where we are not needed? We are certainly not perfect, but we should not be at anyone's mercy!"

Captain America's impassioned words also won the approval of Sam and others.

Seeing that everyone's opinions were still not unified at this moment, Tony could only helplessly say, "If we don't choose to accept this agreement now, they will eventually force us to accept it, and the situation will only get worse then."

Hearing Tony's words, Black Widow also showed an incredulous expression and asked, "You mean, they will send people to arrest us?"

In response, Tony also knew that if he continued to conceal it from everyone, it would be detrimental to the negotiation of this agreement, so he simply admitted it.

After receiving Tony's affirmative answer, everyone fell into contemplation.

If it really came to that point, then they would have to fight against the system they had always been protecting and maintaining.

"Perhaps, we really should agree to sign this agreement. If we completely refuse now, then there will be no room for maneuver between us and the United Nations, and we will only become more passive then."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, are you still the woman who dared to challenge the government in front of the whole World back then?"

When Sam heard Black Widow choose to compromise, he also let out an incredulous tease.

Not only Sam, but also Captain America and Tony were very shocked by this. Captain America had always thought Black Widow would be the one to support his view the most, and Tony had long ago lumped Black Widow into Captain America's stubborn camp.

But just as everyone was about to continue discussing, Captain America's phone received a text message.

After reading the information on his phone, Captain America left the room directly, and the discussion about the agreement was once again put on hold.

After the meeting, Tony also sought out Arthur.

"You'll support me, kid, won't you?"

To Tony's words, Arthur also spoke truthfully: "Mr. Stark, to be honest, I don't like the content of this agreement, but we really need to seriously consider where the team should go from here. The current Sokovia Accords is a very good opportunity; we can all temporarily disappear for a while."

After understanding Arthur's meaning, Tony also felt much more at ease.

Now most of the team members were already on Tony's side, with only a few remaining neutral.

Arthur also saw Tony's worries and smiled as he said to Tony, "Mr. Stark, you don't need to worry about the agreement at all. Why not try to relax for a while?"

Captain America, accompanied by Sam, also came to London to attend Peggy Carter's funeral.

Therefore, the order at the Wakandan King's speech venue had to be managed solely by Black Widow.

Facing this special United Nations conference held in Vienna, media from various countries were closely focused on it.

The Sokovia Accords, jointly approved and signed by one hundred and seventeen countries, also became the absolute protagonist of this conference, as, until now, the Avengers had not expressed any clear stance.

Just as the eyes of the entire World were focused here, a long-planned conspiracy was quietly hovering over the city of Vienna.

While checking the order of the venue, Black Widow also met T'Challa, the current Crown Prince of Wakanda.

As soon as they met, the two began to exchange pleasantries, and T'Challa immediately teased Black Widow about her performance at the previous hearing.

Then Black Widow directly asked T'Challa for his opinion on the Sokovia Accords.

T'Challa did not have too many reservations about this and directly stated his views.

"I am not against this agreement, but from a political standpoint, I cannot agree. Sometimes, the efficiency of two people working together is much faster than a room full of people combined." Just as the two were about to say more, the wall clock nearby chimed.

 

Chapter 89 Conference Explosion

Just as the three of them were still chatting, the conference officially began.

Leaders from various countries took the stage to discuss the incident in Romania and the series of serious events brought about by Sokovia and Ultron.

As time ticked by, it was soon King T'Chaka's turn to speak.

At the same time, T'Challa vigilantly followed close by King T'Chaka's side.

Soon, King T'Chaka stood on the conference podium and expressed his views on the series of actions taken by the Avengers' superheroes.

"I am very grateful for this opportunity at the United Nations General Assembly to present my views to the World, and I am also very grateful that the Avengers' superheroes are seriously considering the Sokovia Accords that we have proposed..."

As King T'Chaka on the stage began to eloquently recite his prepared speech, T'Challa, having nothing to do, walked off to the side by himself.

After drinking the heart-shaped herb's juice, T'Challa's five senses were greatly enhanced.

Suddenly, T'Challa heard an abnormal commotion coming from the street.

T'Challa keenly sensed that something was amiss and immediately went to the French window.

He saw that the street, which had been crowded but orderly, was now in chaos.

The special police officers on the street, responsible for the conference's security, were gathered around a truck parked on the other side of the building, constantly retreating backward.

When a security Agent wearing bomb-proof armor stepped forward to open the truck's rear compartment, a giant explosive appeared in everyone's view.

T'Challa reacted instantly, immediately turning and running towards King T'Chaka, who was still giving his speech, while shouting, "Run!"

But everything happened in an instant; the meticulously designed explosives inside the truck on the street exploded with a bang.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Under a series of shocking loud noises, all the buildings on the street were instantly destroyed, and flashes of Fire shot into the sky, engulfing the entire street.

Amidst the devastation, T'Challa saw King T'Chaka lying in a pool of blood.

T'Challa's mind buzzed, and an ominous premonition filled his body; he quickly ran towards King T'Chaka.

But after a violent tremor, T'Challa found that he could no longer move his feet, and his entire body went limp as if losing weight, collapsing onto the ground.

"T'Challa... T'Challa..." King T'Chaka struggled to speak, but he could only see the blurry scene before him and could not hear what he was saying.

At this moment, T'Challa's face was pale, and large beads of sweat appeared on his forehead.

He knew he had to leave immediately.

T'Challa crawled up from the ground and stumbled away, but after only a few steps, he felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

With a thud, T'Challa fell to the ground, his forehead hitting a hard stone, and blood immediately gushed out.

But T'Challa still gritted his teeth and persevered, enduring the severe pain, he struggled to stand up and continued to flee forward.

"No... cannot stop!" T'Challa muttered to himself as he moved his feet with difficulty.

After finally climbing over a large area of ruins, T'Challa rescued King T'Chaka from beneath a large rock.

T'Challa laid King T'Chaka flat on the ground, placing his hands on his chest.

As T'Challa pressed hard, King T'Chaka's chest began to beat faintly.

"Father... you must hold on!!!!"

Immediately, T'Challa began to perform artificial respiration on King T'Chaka.

One minute passed, two minutes passed... three minutes passed... four minutes passed.

T'Challa's body was completely exhausted; he felt his eyelids becoming heavier and heavier, his body growing weaker and weaker, and finally, his hands slowly slid from King T'Chaka's chest until they rested on his neck.

Just as T'Challa was about to rest for a moment and recover some strength, the S.W.O.R.D. Agents stationed outside the building rushed to the conference site immediately after the explosion.

However, the various dignitaries who had attended the conference were all buried in the ruins, leaving only T'Challa and the Black Widow, who had miraculously escaped, in the entire venue.

The two were then helped by S.W.O.R.D. Agents to the medical vehicle downstairs, and after simple bandaging and treatment, they sat down on a bench in the venue.

Black Widow looked at T'Challa, whose eyes were vacant, and softly said, "I'm very sorry."

T'Challa turned his head to look at Black Widow, then lowered his head to play with King T'Chaka's ring in his hand, and spoke softly, "In our national culture, death is not the end; it is more like a new beginning."

"When you stretch out your hands, the war gods Bast and Sekhmet will lead you to the Eternitygrasslands for you to roam freely."

Hearing this, Black Widow echoed, "That sounds really good."

But T'Challa's tone suddenly shifted as he said, "But that's what my father thought, but I am not my father."

"T'Challa, the task force will send people to capture Bucky."

But who would have thought, T'Challa stood up directly and said to Black Widow, "Don't trouble them; I will personally find him and avenge my father."

After speaking, without waiting for Black Widow to react, T'Challa left directly, leaving Black Widowsitting alone with a solemn expression.

Just as Black Widow was momentarily lost in thought, a phone call interrupted her thoughts.

After glancing at the unfamiliar number displayed on the phone screen, Black Widow tentatively answered the call.

"Hello, are you okay? Are you injured?"

Hearing the familiar voice from the other end of the phone, Black Widow's heart, which had been hanging, finally settled.

"I'm fine. I was lucky; I didn't get the direct impact of the explosion's aftermath."

At the same time, Black Widow scanned her surroundings, but after a full circle, she did not find Captain America.

Black Widow then gave up; if Captain America wanted to hide himself, even she would find it difficult to locate him.

"Listen, I know Bucky is very important to you, but this time you have to promise me, please stay at home, okay? Don't wander around; it's better for everyone, please."

 

Chapter 90 Tracking

"Then if we meet, will you arrest me?"

"I… I won't, but if it were anyone else, they would definitely try to stop you."

"I know all that you're saying, but you also know that since his situation is so bad now, shouldn't I be the one to bring him back?"

"Why?"

"Because I'm the most likely one to come back alive."

Afterward, Captain America ended his communication with Black Widow, and then Captain Americawent alone to a coffee shop.

Upon arriving at the bar, Sam, who was leisurely drinking coffee with sunglasses on, put down his coffee cup when he saw Captain America arrive and asked indifferently, "Did she disagree with you getting involved in this mess?"

Captain America did not respond to this.

However, Sam had already gotten the answer from Captain America's expression.

"Actually, I also hope you can stay away from this turmoil."

Sam turned to Captain America and said seriously.

"No, if my identity and Bucky's were swapped now, and I encountered this situation, I believe Buckywould make the same choice as me."

Hearing Captain America's words, Sam somewhat knew that no matter how much he tried to persuade him, Captain America wouldn't change his mind, but Sam had been deeply attracted by Captain America's charisma from the moment he first met him, so no matter what decision Captain Americamade next, Sam would unreservedly choose to help Captain America.

"But times are different now. If it were back in 1945, maybe this wouldn't be difficult. Now, those who would shoot at you on sight would usually shoot at me too, so we must formulate a detailed strategy before we set off."

Just as the two were still meticulously discussing their upcoming battle plan, a Shadow figure happened to appear beside them.

Sam turned his head to look; the person was Sharon Carter.

Sharon Carter said indifferently, "As soon as we got our hands on the videos of the explosion, they were published on the news headlines of various media outlets, and there were also many onlookers around the United Nations General Assembly at the time who recorded the situation with video devices."

"At the same time, many witnesses claimed to have seen the Winter Soldier at the scene, but many of these reports were fabricated, except for this…"

Saying this, Sharon Carter pushed a sealed file in front of Captain America.

"When my superior saw this file, he immediately asked me to make a brief report, so you don't have much time left."

"Thank you."

"Oh, and we also received orders that once Bucky is seen, we can shoot to kill directly."

With that, Sharon Carter quickly turned and left.

Meanwhile, in a hotel not far from the previous United Nations General Assembly site, Zemo was sitting in his hotel room, constantly studying words and text from a red notebook.

However, because the text was written by the HYDRA organization, the language used was still somewhat obscure and difficult for Zemo to understand.

Looking at the seemingly ordinary words written in the notebook, who would have thought that these were the voice commands used by the HYDRA organization to activate their super killing machines?

For a moment, even Zemo couldn't help but marvel.

Just as Zemo was still concentrating on studying the contents of the notebook, a knock on the door suddenly sounded, which instinctively made Zemo nervous. He quickly stood up from his chair with a "whoosh," putting the red notebook he was holding into a nearby desk.

Then he took out a pistol from the other side of the desk and cautiously moved sideways towards the door.

Just as the atmosphere in the room became extremely tense, a gentle female voice came from outside the door.

"Mr. Zemo, your breakfast is here."

Hearing that it was room service breakfast, Zemo immediately breathed a sigh of relief. After putting the pistol back into his waistband, he also removed the security chain from the door.

After chatting casually with the room service attendant for a few minutes, Zemo quickly found an excuse to end their conversation.

However, what the service personnel did not notice was that in the storage room on the other side of the door, there was a huge device made of coiled wires.

If T'Challa were here at this moment, he would surely recognize at a glance that this huge, peculiar device was the giant bomb that was previously detonated at the convention center.

At this moment, on a street in Bucharest, a figure completely wrapped in a thick coat was picking out food for tonight at a small street stall.

After buying all the ingredients, Bucky was about to go home when he noticed that the newspaper stand owner was looking at him unusually, which immediately made Bucky a little suspicious.

But when Bucky was about to go forward to investigate, the newspaper stand owner immediately fled into the distance, leaving the newspaper stand behind.

Bucky also came to the newspaper stand and casually picked up the newspaper placed at the very front.

A strikingly bolded and enlarged headline caught his eye. Looking at the newspaper's report of his terrorist attack on the United Nations General Assembly, Bucky fell into deep thought.

However, Bucky quickly realized that it was not simple, and immediately pulled up his hoodie, then quickly ran towards his residence.

At this very moment, through the file provided by Sharon Carter, he successfully arrived at Bucky's residence.

Looking at the narrow room, Captain America searched everywhere.

Just as Captain America was immersed in his memories of being with Bucky, Bucky returned home from outside the door.

But before he could push the door open and enter, he keenly noticed that someone had entered his room.

However, Bucky quickly calmed down. He slowly twisted the doorknob and then walked in with composure.

As soon as he entered, Captain America and Bucky exchanged glances in the air.

When Bucky first saw Captain America, he hadn't expected to see him there.

However, Bucky still only had vague memories of Captain America, so for a moment, he was still full of hostility towards Captain America who had suddenly appeared there.

 

Chapter 91 The Winter Soldier

At this moment, seeing Bucky so nervous, and with the Special Forces team receiving the message and closing in, Captain America had no choice but to ask first, "Do you know me?"

"Yes, I learned about your past in the museum. You are Steve Rogers."

Seeing Bucky's ambiguous answer, Captain America knew that Bucky still hadn't fully recovered his memory.

Therefore, Captain America quickly said, "Many combat troops are now closing in on this area. They are here to capture you. I know you are very nervous right now, and I completely understand your current feelings. You have every reason to be nervous."

"I haven't been to Vienna. Someone is deliberately framing me."

"But those who are preparing to come and capture you don't think so, and the orders they received are not to capture you alive."

In response, Bucky said coldly, "Very clever, a very good tactic."

Just then, Captain America's walkie-talkie successfully intercepted the military communication channel of the Special Forces currently on their way.

With little time left before the Special Forces arrived, Captain America anxiously said, "Actually, we don't need to resolve everything through combat. We can find a place and sit down to talk properly."

However, at the same time, Bucky took off his jacket, revealing his Vibranium Arm, and said calmly, "No, I don't have much time left. I advise you to leave quickly and not get involved in this muddy Water."

With that, Bucky slammed his fist onto the floor. The already decaying wooden floor was easily smashed, creating a large hole. From the hole, he pulled out a black backpack.

Just as Bucky finished all of this, the external Special Forces had already tightly surrounded the room and its occupants.

The next second, only the sound of breaking glass could be heard, followed by numerous tear gas canisters being thrown in.

The effect of this tear gas was very potent; almost instantly, the entire space was filled with smoke.

Immediately, a fully armed Special Forces team stormed in through the windows.

Captain America first swung his shield, knocking down the Special Forces member charging at the front.

Next, he sharply hooked the rope on the waist of an adjacent Special Forces soldier with his toe and pulled hard.

As the Special Forces soldier's body was pulled back, Captain America quickly jumped onto him, then spread his arms, pinning the soldier to the ground and firmly clamping him with his legs.

After Captain America finished all of this, he quickly grabbed the shield from the ground and slammed it down on the head of the soldier he had knocked to the ground.

On the other side, Bucky punched a Special Forces member guarding the door, sending both the person and the door flying downstairs, then decisively fled outside.

"Bucky! Don't go!"

Seeing this, Captain America quickly stood up from the ground and chased after him out the door.

At this moment, the hallway outside the door was already crowded with Special Forces members who had arrived.

Bucky, who had just escaped outside, had no way to flee and was quickly cornered in the narrow corridor.

Countless bullets rained down on Bucky, striking the metal stair railing and sending up blinding sparks of Fire.

Bucky was unable to approach under the dense Firepower.

At this point, Captain America also arrived in the stairwell. Seeing Bucky being heavily suppressed by the Special Forces' dense Firepower, Captain America grew anxious. However, Bucky was injured, and he gathered all his strength to throw his shield downstairs at the Special Forces members.

In the blink of an eye, he knocked out several of the front-most individuals. Seizing this opportunity, Bucky quickly took assault rifles from these Special Forces members.

"Bucky! You leave quickly! I'll cover you!"

Seeing that Bucky still wanted to fight these Special Forces members to the death, Captain Americashouted, and at the same time, he threw an AKM47 assault rifle to Bucky, hoping to help alleviate his pressure.

Bucky was surprised to see Captain America act this way and quickened his escape.

Captain America breathed a sigh of relief. He knew the situation was extremely critical, and if Buckydidn't leave quickly, he might not be able to get away.

"Bang!"

"Bang bang!"

"Bang!"

...

Bucky ran wildly, with countless Special Forces members chasing and attacking him from behind. Buckydesperately dodged, but still inevitably took hits.

Soon, Bucky found a gap behind him, leaped down, and disappeared from everyone's sight through the opening.

Seeing that Bucky had successfully escaped from the Special Forces' gunfire, Captain America decided not to stay and continue fighting with the Special Forces members.

He then took a tear gas canister from a Special Forces member he had knocked out and threw it downstairs, then immediately seized the opportunity to chase after Bucky in the direction he had gone.

Soon, Captain America caught up to Bucky, who was standing in the gap between two tall buildings.

Upon seeing Captain America catch up, Bucky didn't think much, took a few steps back, and used the momentum of a running start to jump towards the roof of the opposite building.

Seeing this, Captain America gritted his teeth and also leaped towards the opposite building.

After rolling once on the ground to dissipate his momentum, Captain America had just gotten up when he saw Bucky in front, currently engaged in a fierce battle with a You-Know-Who covered in black and purple armor.

Bucky, who was always incredibly strong in close-quarters combat, was now being completely suppressed by the You-Know-Who in front of him.

What shocked both Captain America and Bucky the most was that when Bucky swung his Vibranium Arm and slammed it down on the You-Know-Who, the imagined sound of armor shattering did not occur. Instead, Bucky's punch was firmly caught by the opponent.

"What?!"

Seeing this scene, both Captain America and Bucky were momentarily stunned.

At the same time, the You-Know-Who seized the opportunity. While Bucky was momentarily dazed, he firmly grabbed Bucky's Vibranium Arm with both hands, then forcefully flung Bucky over his back.

Bucky then heavily crashed onto the concrete roof, and the You-Know-Who revealed extremely sharp claws from his hands.

Seeing this, Captain America forcefully threw his shield at the You-Know-Who, attempting to help Bucky.

 

Chapter 92 Chase

However, something happened that Captain America found incredibly difficult to accept: the shield he had thrown with all his might was effortlessly caught by You-Know-Who.

Suddenly, Captain America began to reminisce about the past, when he was the first successful super-soldier, and with his Vibranium shield, he was virtually invincible.

Who would have thought that after he woke up from a long sleep, he would first encounter Loki and the Chitauri army, then Bucky and Ultron, and now You-Know-Who?

In the few years since Captain America awoke, he had encountered countless opponents whose abilities were no less than his own; it seemed like anyone who appeared could easily catch his shield.

Although Captain America would never complain about these things openly, his heart was full of bitterness.

However, You-Know-Who had no intention of letting Bucky go just because Captain America appeared.

After You-Know-Who caught Captain America's shield, he immediately picked it up and violently smashed it towards Bucky, who was lying on the ground not far away.

Captain America was shocked to see Bucky in danger and immediately prepared to rush forward, but at that moment, he suddenly heard You-Know-Who's voice in his ear: "Don't come over, Captain, this is between him and me.

You'd best not get involved."

Although Captain America didn't know what You-Know-Who meant, he immediately rushed forward; he didn't want Bucky to die because of this.

After You-Know-Who smashed Bucky's body away, he quickly came before Bucky and then extended his right hand to grab Bucky's head in his palm.

You-Know-Who grabbed Bucky's head and slammed it violently against the ground.

Captain America was extremely anxious when he saw You-Know-Who grab Bucky.

But Captain America dared not make any big moves right now; Bucky was in You-Know-Who's hands, and if he acted rashly now, the opponent might use Bucky as a human shield against him, and then Bucky's safety would be difficult to secure.

Sam, who was still circling high in the sky not far away, now came above the three of them, and seeing the three of them in such a stalemate, Sam anxiously asked, "Who is that?"

"I don't know either, but we'll find out soon."

Just as the few of them were in a stalemate, a noisy engine sound also caught everyone's attention.

An fully armed apache was roaring out from a nearby building.

After the pilot saw the three people below, he did not hesitate to ruthlessly attack them.

"Bang bang bang..."

The heavy machine guns on the apache continuously spewed out scorching Fire, and the density of the Firepower was beyond everyone's imagination.

"Get out of the way."

Seeing the apache's frantic attack below, Captain America immediately reacted and shouted at everyone.

But just as he opened his mouth to warn them, a bullet grazed his face, directly cutting his cheek, and blood immediately flowed down his cheek, dripping onto the ground, looking extremely alluring.

"Sam!"

"Leave it to me!"

As soon as he finished speaking, Sam violently kicked the apache's tail fin.

The apache instantly lost its balance due to Sam's powerful momentum, and in desperation, the apachepilot could only control the helicopter to tilt to one side.

You-Know-Who's attention was also diverted by this sudden change, and Bucky took this opportunity to violently knee-kick You-Know-Who down, then seized the opportunity to immediately break free.

Bucky leaped directly from a building more than ten stories high, and You-Know-Who, seeing this, did not hesitate at all; he extended the sharp claws of his armor and deeply embedded them into the nearby wall, then quickly descended to the ground.

Captain America, who arrived late, saw the actions of the two and had no time to think; he immediately used his shield as a cushion under himself, just like Bucky, and then jumped down.

Captain America, who arrived late, saw the actions of the two.

Captain America, who arrived late, saw the actions of the two.

Bucky, after landing, quickly changed his position and then continued to flee into the distance.

"Rumble..."

Just as the three of them had landed, the apache that Sam had kicked away had now stabilized its fuselage and found them again, sweeping them with gunfire.

To avoid the apache's fierce Firepower, Bucky also seized the opportunity to jump from under the overpass into the underground tunnel.

From then on, the three of them continuously weaved through the endless flow of traffic.

The speed at which the three of them ran at full tilt was surprisingly much faster than the cars speeding by, which left the drivers in the tunnel dumbfounded.

Just at this moment, a series of piercing alarm bells echoed throughout the entire tunnel.

Several Special Forces vehicles were seen chasing after the three of them.

Seeing the Special Forces vehicles getting closer and closer, Captain America suddenly had an idea.

Captain America gradually slowed down, and when the vehicle came beside him, Captain America held his shield horizontally in front of him, then leaped towards the approaching vehicle, crashing heavily onto the windshield.

Before the Special Forces members inside the car could react, Captain America yanked open the car door, roughly threw all the Special Forces members inside out of the car, and then he himself got into the driver's seat and continued to chase after the two people ahead.

Captain America floored the accelerator and quickly caught up with You-Know-Who.

Captain America gripped the steering wheel firmly with both hands, then slammed into You-Know-Who.

You-Know-Who quickly noticed Captain America behind him, then performed a backflip to perfectly dodge Captain America's impact, and then executed a carp jump to stand up again, after which several quick leaps allowed him to climb onto Captain America's car.

Captain America also saw You-Know-Who through the rearview mirror, so he maneuvered the vehicle to constantly ram around inside the tunnel, attempting to throw You-Know-Who off the car.

Seeing that they were about to reach the tunnel exit, Special Forces enforcement vehicles were blocking the exit.

In desperation, Bucky, who was running at the very front, had no choice but to flip over the railing and run to the opposite lane.

Seeing this, Captain America also hardened his heart, turned the steering wheel fully, and drove through the roadblock, leaving behind the bewildered Special Forces members.

Bucky, who had temporarily escaped the Special Forces' interception, also saw a Harley motorcycle approaching him head-on, so he immediately pulled the driver, person and bike, down, and then continued his escape driving the Harley motorcycle.

 

Chapter 93 Arrested

However, Captain America's car was ultimately faster than Bucky's motorcycle, and it wasn't long before he caught up to Bucky.

At this moment, You-Know-Who, who had been lying on the back of Captain America's car, seeing that the time was ripe, jumped onto the roof and then pounced towards Bucky.

Seeing this, Bucky displayed his incredibly powerful close-combat abilities as a Winter Soldier; he suddenly extended his Vibranium Arm and swiftly, accurately, and ruthlessly clamped You-Know-Who's neck, then pressed You-Know-Who's head against the wall of the nearby tunnel, creating a shower of sparks and lightning.

You-Know-Who, seeing this, also threw a punch at Bucky, and in desperation, Bucky had no choice but to let go and fling You-Know-Who backward.

Captain America, seeing You-Know-Who thrown flying by Bucky, quickly drove the car, narrowly swerving around You-Know-Who.

You-Know-Who, who had rolled onto the ground, quickly stood up. Just as it was contemplating how to catch up to Bucky again, Sam happened to arrive.

You-Know-Who pounced towards Sam, and in the next instant, Sam instinctively raised his body upward. Immediately, You-Know-Who successfully grabbed Sam's ankle, then slowly climbed onto Sam's back.

At this moment, Bucky, seeing Captain America catching up, seized the opportunity to place a small explosive on the wall at one of the tunnel exits.

Before Captain America could reach the spot, the small explosive shattered the tunnel wall.

The explosion produced clouds of smoke, forcing Sam to stop.

Due to the powerful inertia, You-Know-Who had not anticipated such a sudden change and was directly flung out, but by a strange coincidence, it quickly approached Bucky.

You-Know-Who extended its sharp claws and, with a swift swing, dismantled Bucky's motorcycle's rear wheel.

Bucky, who had been speeding, now fell heavily. Seeing this, You-Know-Who quickly stabilized itself and continued to assault Bucky.

At the same time, Captain America also chose to abandon his car and rush over.

You-Know-Who, seeing Captain America arrive, knew that it wouldn't be able to kill Bucky today, so it simply stopped.

Just then, the Special Forces who had been shaken off earlier also arrived at the scene.

Soon, the three were surrounded by countless Special Forces members, followed closely by Colonel Rhodes.

Seeing Captain America, Rhodes said angrily, "Congratulations, Captain, you've successfully become a criminal."

Looking at the Special Forces continuously surrounding it, You-Know-Who retracted all its sharp claws, then slowly took off its helmet in front of everyone present.

Looking at the familiar face beneath the helmet, a face that had frequently appeared on major international media platforms recently, everyone present showed shocked expressions.

"King T'Challa?"

Facing Colonel Rhodes' exclamation, T'Challa merely nodded faintly, then obediently followed the Special Forces into the armored vehicle that had come to escort them.

Inside the armored vehicle, only T'Challa, Sam, Captain America, and Bucky remained.

"So you like cats, do you?"

"Enough, Sam."

"No, he's a grown man who likes to dress up as a black cat. Aren't you curious?"

After hearing Sam's words, Captain America also showed a thoughtful expression, then turned to T'Challa and slowly said, "That suit is made of Vibranium, isn't it?"

However, T'Challa did not answer Captain America immediately. Instead, he spoke to himself, "Black Panther is the Guardian of our Wakanda for generations. It is a title passed down from warrior to warrior through the generations."

"Now, because your friend killed my father, I have inherited the throne. As the King of Wakanda and a warrior, I really want to ask you, how long do you think you can protect your friend?"

Captain America fell silent upon hearing this. After all, no one could confirm whether the previous explosion was truly related to Bucky. Although out of their friendship, Captain America hoped that Bucky's claim of being framed was true.

But now, neither Captain America nor Bucky could provide a favorable and accurate answer to completely clear Bucky's name.

Soon, everyone was escorted by the Special Forces to an underground military Base.

After Bucky was confined in a specially designed cell, Captain America and the others, led by the Special Forces, met the person in charge of the operation and Sharon Carter.

"How will you deal with him?"

Facing Captain America's current awkward situation, General Ross did not hesitate at all and directly said, "The same as you, a psychological evaluation and then extradition back to your country!"

"Can I have a lawyer?"

"A lawyer? You're quite humorous!"

Looking at the newly appointed Deputy Commander of the Anti-Terrorism Task Force, Sam was furious. Just as he was about to step forward to argue, Captain America, who was behind him, pulled him back.

Subsequently, the group was escorted by the Anti-Terrorism Task Force back to S.W.O.R.D..

"We've prepared an office for you, not a cell. I hope you won't run around!"

General Ross said softly to T'Challa.

"Don't worry, I won't go anywhere until I've punished the murderer."

At this moment, Black Widow also walked towards them from the other side of the corridor.

As soon as Black Widow approached Captain America, she teased, "See? This is what I was talking about, a situation that makes things even worse."

But Captain America said, "At least he's still alive!"

As they spoke, they arrived at a conference room where Tony had been waiting for a long time.

Tony was currently busy with political networking, trying to minimize the impact of Captain Americaand the others' mission to capture Rumlow in Romania.

"Bear the consequences? Of course, we will handle the aftermath properly. I will ensure that such incidents do not happen again. Thank you, sir."

After ending the call, Tony walked up to Captain America, and the two giants once again locked eyes.

"Bear the consequences?"

"The Secretary of State wants to initiate public prosecution against you for your actions!"

"Prosecute us? What, are you going to confiscate my shield?"

At this moment, Black Widow added, "The shield now belongs to the government, and so do your wings."

Hearing this, Sam said disdainfully, "My heart is so cold."

"It's colder in a prison cell!"

 

Chapter 94 Discussion

Then Tony's phone rang again. While Tony was out making a call, Captain America was left alone in the conference room.

Captain America had regained his composure, returning to his usual calm demeanor, unperturbed even when faced with a crumbling mountain.

He focused intently on the monitoring screen displaying Bucky, lost in brief contemplation.

The immediate priority was to find the mastermind behind the bombing at the United Nations General Assembly; otherwise, there would be no way to prove Bucky's innocence.

Even if other countries were willing to let Bucky go, Wakanda, led by T'Challa, would certainly not.

Moreover, from his previous battle with T'Challa, Captain America was certain that Wakanda was not as simple as it appeared on the surface.

Although it was a documented fact that Wakanda possessed Vibranium, the records also stated that all of this Vibranium had been acquired by Tony's father.

However, the armor T'Challa was wearing was entirely made of Vibranium, and Ultron had previously obtained a large amount of Vibranium from Klaw, who also bore the brand of a thief from Wakanda.

Therefore, Captain America now had reason to suspect that a large amount of Vibranium still existed in Wakanda, and only an outsider like Klaw knew about it.

Captain America decided that after helping Bucky clear his name, he would ask Tony to accompany him to Wakanda.

After all, Vibranium falling into the hands of Terrorists was simply too dangerous.

Just as Captain America was still immersed in his thoughts, Tony finished his call and walked back into the conference room.

Unlike when he left empty-handed, Tony returned to the conference room holding two items in his hands.

Tony first handed the Sokovia Accords to Captain America, then placed a beautifully crafted gift box in front of him.

Captain America curiously opened the gift box, revealing two equally exquisite pens lying quietly inside.

Seeing this, Captain America looked up at Tony with a puzzled expression.

"I guess... I can only say it's an olive branch, perhaps."

As he spoke, Tony nervously cupped his chin with his hand.

Captain America observed Tony's every move. Even if Tony didn't say it directly, Captain America knew what Tony meant, but he didn't want to expose Tony so quickly.

He wanted to play along with Tony for a bit, hoping to ease the tension that had built up between them recently.

"Why didn't Jane come?"

"Uh... we... broke up amicably. No one's at fault."

As Tony said this, Captain America noticed that he seemed extremely downcast.

Captain America could sense that Tony had indeed changed a lot over a long period, transforming from a playboy into a superhero who now liked to take everything on his own shoulders.

Despite their severe disagreements at the moment, whether as colleagues or friends, Captain Americadid not want to see Tony become like this, both personally and professionally.

"I'm sorry, Tony, I didn't know. My apologies."

"Rogers, you know, a few years ago, to keep her, I destroyed all my armors at once, but then I had to deal with HYDRA, and then Ultron.

It was all my fault."

"And then, and then, and then, I kept playing the role of Iron Man. I kept fighting because I didn't want to give up so easily, didn't want to stop, just because I didn't want to lose her."

"But in the end, everything that happened was messed up by me. Now I've still lost her. Do you know why I've been so insistent on everyone signing this Accords? Because I feel like this Accords could greatly help me keep Jane."

"Jane always thought I was a troublesome guy, but my father was also a difficult person to deal with, yet he managed to stay with my mom."

Hearing this, Captain America smiled faintly, "I'm not too sure about that. After all, I only knew the single Howard. I'm glad he eventually got married."

"Oh, you two knew each other? My father only mentioned it a thousand times."

"Tony, you know I don't mean to make things difficult for you, but when I discover a bad sign, I can't help but take it seriously. I can't turn a blind eye.

Many times I wish I could just stand by and watch, but... I can't."

"You can't."

Captain America and Tony exchanged a smile. In fact, putting aside some work disagreements, they actually had a lot of unspoken understanding in many private matters.

"You know, sometimes I really want to punch all your pretty teeth out, but I don't want you to leave. We can't lose you."

"As long as you sign this Accords now, we can make this operation legal, and Bucky will be sent to a mental hospital for recuperation, not a cold Wakanda prison."

With that, Tony pushed the two exquisite pens toward Captain America.

"These two pens were used by Roger when he signed the declaration of war. Now you can use them to sign a peace Accords that will benefit all of humanity."

Under Tony's eager gaze, Captain America reached out, took a pen from the gift box, and stood up, examining it carefully. After a long moment, Captain America turned to Tony and said, "I'm not saying the Accords is useless, but there must be safeguards."

Hearing this, Tony was overjoyed. Since Captain America was willing to propose conditions, it meant there was still room for negotiation. He quickly replied, "Of course there are safeguards! Once all external negative influences are eliminated, the contents of the Accords can be modified immediately, and then you can be reinstated to your original position."

Captain America looked at the pen in his hand, his mind still constantly pondering how to choose.

Suddenly, Captain America's peripheral vision caught sight of Bucky on the screen. Indeed, if he signed the Sokovia Accords immediately, Bucky would be pushed to the forefront as the mastermind behind this terrorist attack.

 

Chapter 95 Parting on bad terms

Therefore, considering Bucky's safety, Captain America slowly put the pen back into the gift box.

Seeing this, Tony's face also sank abruptly.

Immediately, the two began to quarrel again in the conference room.

After a long while, if Black Widow hadn't come to call Tony away, it's unknown how this quarrel would have ended.

"Hey, you two, they're about to start."

With that, Black Widow called Tony out of the conference room, leaving Captain America alone inside.

Although Black Widow didn't explicitly say what was happening, Captain America knew this was a crucial step in sending Bucky to a mental institution for imprisonment.

However, since Captain America had not yet signed the Sokovia Accords, his previous actions in apprehending Bucky were strictly speaking considered a criminal act, and Captain America's current identity was that of a S.W.O.R.D. criminal.

Therefore, some of the auditing processes concerning Bucky were considered S.W.O.R.D. secrets, which Captain America currently had no right to review.

The conference room at this moment was also constructed with extremely soundproof blast-proof glass, so Captain America could only see the images on the screen but couldn't hear what the people inside were saying.

Just then, Sharon Carter walked in.

"Captain, this is the receipt for your gear."

"Alright, thank you."

Seeing Captain America staring intently at the screen outside, Carter felt extremely pained.

Although Captain America was her aunt's former lover, having grown up by Peggy Carter's side since childhood, Sharon still harbored a certain admiration for Captain America in her heart.

Now, seeing Captain America, who was originally beloved by the nation, being held under house arrest and witnessing the trial of his best friend, Sharon felt a pang of heartache.

Sharon subtly moved to a nearby controller and, with a series of operations, connected Bucky's interrogation scene to the TV screen inside the conference room.

Facing this, Captain America gave Sharon a grateful look.

At the same time, Black Widow, who was outside, also noticed the changes inside the conference room, but after a moment of hesitation, Black Widow decided not to expose their little actions.

"Mr. Barnes, I am an expert invited to conduct a psychological evaluation for you. Do you mind if I sit here?"

Not far from the cell where Bucky was being interrogated, a freight truck arrived at the entrance of a power plant.

"Beep~ beep~ beep~"

"Is anyone there?"

"What is this thing?"

"I don't know either, but the address says it's here."

With that, the two haphazardly unloaded the items carried on the truck.

It was a huge wooden crate. The power plant's receiver looked at the crate in front of him with confusion, but instinctively grabbed a crowbar and forcefully inserted it into the wooden box.

"Bang!"

After the sound, the wooden box was opened, and a huge, strange device appeared in sight.

Upon closer inspection, this huge device was precisely the giant explosive that had previously appeared in Zemo's guest room, except this explosive was somewhat different from the giant explosive placed beneath the United Nations General Assembly.

The purpose of this explosive was not to destroy the power plant, but to temporarily paralyze it.

At the same time, Captain America, who was in the conference room, also received the photos brought by Sharon Carter.

Looking at Bucky's photos captured by surveillance in his hand, Captain America couldn't help but frown.

Seeing this, Sharon Carter instinctively sensed that Captain America might have discovered something unusual, and immediately asked, "Is there anything wrong?"

Looking at the photos in his hand, Captain America quickly recalled what Bucky had said when they first met.

"Why would the Anti-Terrorism Task Force distribute these photos?"

Facing Captain America's confusion, Sharon Carter replied, "They probably want to spread the photos and then use the power of the public to help search."

"This is indeed an excellent way to improve efficiency, having over seven billion people worldwide help search for the Winter Soldier, but why, after planting the bomb, would he deliberately show his face on surveillance and leave evidence of himself?"

At this point, Sharon Carter seemed to have been enlightened, and immediately exclaimed, "Are you saying someone deliberately wants to pin this bombing attack on the Winter Soldier?"

"But we've been searching for him for two years and we've found nothing."

"That's because we didn't detonate the United Nations General Assembly, and we couldn't attract the attention of the entire World to ourselves."

"Then how could the person behind it be so sure that we would be able to apprehend Bucky?"

As soon as Sharon Carter finished speaking, both of them suddenly thought of something, and simultaneously looked at the Doctor, the psychologist who was currently interrogating Bucky in the special cell.

At this moment, inside the special cell, Zemo was conscientiously playing the role of a psychological evaluator under surveillance.

"Tell me, Bucky, you must have encountered many unusual things after joining HYDRA, right?"

To this, Bucky, trapped in the cell, merely said coldly, "I don't really want to talk about these things with you."

Seeing this, Zemo, sitting opposite Bucky, was not at all annoyed. He calmly checked his email delivery process, then looked up again and smiled faintly at Bucky, "Are you worried that once you start talking about these things, you won't be able to stop? But you don't need to worry about that now, because we only need to recall one thing."

As soon as he finished speaking, the giant electromagnetic pulse explosive in the power plant was detonated, and a powerful electromagnetic pulse wave instantly swept across the entire power plant.

Within moments, facilities within several hundred kilometers were paralyzed, and even the interior of the special cell where Bucky was held experienced a brief power outage.

Seeing the screen go blank, General Ross quickly ordered his subordinates to rush to the cell and firmly control Bucky.

Tony, on the side, also told Friday to quickly check the cause of the power outage.

And now, due to the power outage, Zemo no longer needed to worry about the surveillance behind him. Zemo dropped his disguise, walked directly to Bucky, and said eerily, "Now let's have a good talk about your hometown, not the one in Romania, nor the one in Brooklyn..."

 

Chapter 96 The Winter Soldier Awakens

Zemo looked at Bucky, who was confused, and said faintly, "I'm asking about your real home."

With that, Zemo, under Bucky's shocked gaze, took out the small red leather-bound notebook from his Pregnant, opened it, and began to recite its contents in Russian.

"Longing!"

"Rusted!"

Hearing the incredibly familiar activation words from Zemo's mouth, Bucky immediately understood Zemo's objective.

After hearing these activation words, Bucky only felt as if something unknown was awakening in his mind, and his consciousness was gradually being replaced and eroded by this thing.

Before long, Zemo had recited nearly half of the words, and the only sound left in the special cell was Bucky's painful groans.

But Zemo on the other side continued to recite the words regardless.

In desperation, Bucky, unwilling to become a tool in someone else's hands again, swung his Vibranium Arm and frantically smashed it against the blast-proof glass door of the special cell.

As Zemo recited each word, the force of Bucky's blows against the blast-proof glass also gradually weakened.

Not long after, Zemo had finished reciting all the words, and at this moment, Bucky had just managed to smash through the blast-proof glass door.

Looking at Bucky, who was kneeling on the ground, gasping for breath, Zemo carefully got up and approached Bucky, wanting to see if Bucky was now under his control.

Suddenly, Bucky stood up abruptly, his eyes fixed on Zemo.

Zemo was also stunned by Bucky's gaze and dared not make any other moves for a while.

The two remained in a stalemate for a long time, and Bucky was the first to speak: "Ready to comply!"

Seeing this, a slight arc appeared on Zemo's lips.

Immediately, Zemo heard footsteps from behind him.

Captain America and Sam, who had returned, charged in aggressively.

Captain America kicked Zemo, who was standing in the corner, to the ground, then roughly grabbed Zemo's collar.

On the other side, Sam, who had entered the room with Captain America, was not so lucky; as soon as Sam stepped into the special cell, the controlled Bucky walked towards him.

Bucky swung his Vibranium Arm and slammed it towards Sam.

Bang!

With a muffled thud, Sam was sent flying backward like a cannonball.

He crashed heavily against the wall, then slid down from it.

Seeing this, a sinister smile appeared on Bucky's lips.

Immediately, Bucky quickly ran to Sam's side, lifted his right leg, and slammed it down hard towards Sam's head.

Seeing the punch about to land on him, Sam quickly crouched down at the last critical moment.

Bang!

After a loud bang, the concrete wall behind Sam was instantly smashed, creating a huge hole by Bucky's powerful blow.

At this moment, Sam was already seriously injured and slumped on the ground under Bucky's heavy blow.

Bucky now bent down, reached out, and tightly grabbed Sam's neck, then lifted Sam high up and slammed him heavily towards the special cell where he had originally been held.

After dealing with Sam, Bucky immediately turned his attention and attacked Captain America.

Bucky's speed was extremely fast, and he reached Captain America's front in an instant.

Captain America also reacted swiftly at this moment; upon sensing the danger, he quickly raised his left arm to block Bucky's attack.

A muffled thud of "bang."

In an instant, Captain America and Bucky's fists collided fiercely; after losing his handy weapon, even Captain America could only retreat step by step when facing Bucky's Vibranium Arm.

Although Captain America was somewhat disheveled, he still managed to withstand Bucky's offensive, as he now possessed a powerful physique that surpassed humans.

But Bucky clearly didn't want to give up easily and continued to pursue Captain America.

Thus, the two fought back and forth in the cell, but they could never defeat each other, and eventually, they were forced to separate.

Looking at his opponent's disheveled appearance, Bucky did not show any consideration for their past feelings, mercilessly striking Captain America with punch after punch.

Although Captain America was temporarily unable to contend with Bucky's Vibranium Arm, years of combat experience also helped Captain America avoid collapsing at Bucky's touch like Sam.

Although Captain America was at a disadvantage in this attack, he did not give up and was still desperately trying to prevent Bucky from attacking.

"Bang" another muffled thud, Captain America was sent flying by Bucky's iron fist.

Captain America was sent flying out of the cell.

After seeing Captain America's figure being knocked out of the cell door, he was inadvertently forced to the elevator entrance by Bucky's dense, rain-like attacks.

Bucky smashed the elevator door panel with one punch, and then Captain America, without surprise, fell into the deep elevator shaft, his life unknown.

Bucky glanced at the bottomless elevator shaft in front of him, then turned and left.

At this moment, Sam also slowly woke up; when he only saw Bucky outside the elevator shaft but not Captain America, Sam immediately had an ominous feeling.

Sam shouted loudly at Bucky's retreating figure.

Upon seeing Sam reawaken, the other party did not return to finish him off but quickly left the scene.

Inside the Command Center at this moment, the Anti-Terrorism Task Force was in chaos; T'Challa, who was in another conference room within the Command Center, immediately sensed something was wrong after Captain America and Sam hurriedly left the Command Center.

Taking advantage of everyone present being in chaos, T'Challa's figure also mysteriously disappeared from the conference room.

By the time someone noticed, it was already too late.

General Ross cursed, "Bastard!" upon seeing this scene.

He then took out his walkie-talkie and issued an order to his Agents to seal off the entire building, and also dispatched multiple armed helicopters to hover in the high skies around.

At the same time, Tony and Black Widow, seeing the situation gradually spiraling out of control, immediately got up and ran out of the Command Center.

At this point, Black Widow didn't forget to tease Tony: "I told you to bring your gear earlier; now you've encountered a special situation, haven't you!"

To this, Tony replied unceremoniously, "I brought my gear, the Tom Ford three-piece suit, a man's essential gear!"

Upon hearing this, Black Widow gave Tony a big eye-roll.

 

Chapter 97 Escape

At this moment, Zemo had already retreated using the huge commotion created by Bucky.

Bucky, following his orders, swaggered straight out of the lobby of this building, which was filled with Super Agents.

At this very moment, Tony, Black Widow, and the others had just arrived at the lobby downstairs.

Tony hid behind a massive stone pillar, watching as the Anti-Terrorism Task Force, usually capable of fighting a hundred opponents alone, were all as vulnerable as three-year-old children in front of Bucky.

Seeing this, Tony immediately raised his left arm and casually tapped a few times on the mechanical watch he wore on his wrist.

The silver mechanical watch instantly extended a miniature camera, and after successfully scanning Tony's facial information, the entire mechanical watch began to transform like a Transformer.

In the blink of an eye, it enveloped Tony's entire arm, turning into an Iron Gauntlet.

After donning his gear, Tony immediately felt his confidence surge.

At this point, Bucky casually knocked an Agent to the ground, then aimed his dark gun barrel at the Agent.

Seeing that the Agent was about to meet his demise, Tony rushed forward, grabbed Bucky's arm, and then used his palm to tightly block the gun's muzzle.

As the bullet fired, Tony only felt a tingling sensation in his palm, and then he showed an expression of disbelief.

He hadn't expected that a gauntlet transformed from a small watch could so easily block a bullet's attack.

However, Bucky, on the other side, had no time for surprise; he simply grabbed Tony by the collar of his suit and threw him far away.

As soon as Bucky broke free from Tony's entanglement, just as he was about to turn and leave, he saw Black Widow pouncing straight at him.

Black Widow grabbed Bucky's outstretched arm, then used his arm as a lever to swiftly mount him.

While this move would normally be a deadly attack, Black Widow was not facing an ordinary human, but a modified Winter Soldier.

The damage Black Widow could inflict on Bucky was truly limited; Bucky firmly grabbed Black Widowwith both hands, then violently slammed her against the wall, causing Black Widow to be thrown directly onto the wall. Black Widow clutched her head, which was throbbing from the impact, and immediately lost her combat effectiveness.

Just then, Sharon Carter, who had rushed over upon hearing the commotion, delivered a precise whip kick to Bucky.

After taking that solid kick, Bucky's body uncontrollably staggered backward.

Black Widow, at this moment, also propped herself up, quickly got up, and delivered another kick.

Then, the two women unleashed a full set of combination punches on Bucky, and for a moment, Buckywas completely on the defensive.

But soon, Bucky found an opportunity in the gaps of their attacks; he grabbed Sharon Carter's flying kick, and with a slight force, he hoisted Sharon Carter into the air and began a 360-degree spin, then heavily threw her onto a nearby plastic table.

Turning back, he extended both hands and tightly gripped Black Widow's neck.

Under Bucky's terrifying grip, Black Widow only felt dizzy and lightheaded, as if she might suffocate at any moment.

But even at this point, Black Widow didn't forget to quip, "We've fought so many times; you should at least recognize me by now."

However, Bucky's only response was to gradually increase the pressure of his grip.

Just as Black Widow was about to suffocate, T'Challa finally arrived.

T'Challa kicked Bucky to the ground, and Black Widow was thus freed.

Bucky, standing up again, let out a roar as he looked at the menacing T'Challa, and then the two engaged in battle.

Just as Black Widow was about to suffocate, T'Challa finally arrived.

Because T'Challa had consumed the heart-shaped herb's essence, his physical abilities had greatly improved, making him no less formidable than Captain America, Bucky, and others.

Furthermore, T'Challa's speed was extremely fast, and Bucky simply couldn't compare, quickly becoming overwhelmed by T'Challa's rain-like barrage of punches.

Bucky gritted his teeth and endured T'Challa's heavy punch, then pushed back with force; T'Challagrunted and was knocked to the ground.

Bucky then didn't hesitate, immediately running towards the exit.

Seeing this, T'Challa quickly sprang to his feet, then looked at Bucky's retreating figure and immediately gave chase.

"You can't escape!"

T'Challa looked at Bucky's figure, his face showing an expression of anger.

Bucky, hearing this, did not bother to respond to T'Challa, but continued to run towards the door.

T'Challa quickly blocked Bucky's path, and seeing that he couldn't escape for the moment, Buckysimply loosened his shoulders and then launched a fierce attack on T'Challa.

Bucky swung a punch directly at T'Challa's body; T'Challa cried out in pain and flew to the side, with Bucky following closely, combining punches and kicks.

Then T'Challa found an opportunity and firmly restrained Bucky's Vibranium Arm, on which he relied.

But just as T'Challa tried to dismantle it, he found that even with his strength, he couldn't budge it at all.

Seeing this, T'Challa also showed a look of shock.

Watching Bucky about to break free from his restraint, T'Challa, in a moment of quick thinking, grabbed Bucky's arm and then performed a stylish backflip, throwing Bucky down the stairs.

At this moment, T'Challa also regretted why he hadn't brought an extra Black Panther suit.

Just as Bucky tumbled down the stairs, T'Challa immediately followed suit.

As soon as Bucky stood up, intending to continue attacking T'Challa, he was instantly disoriented by T'Challa's combination of punches, and then kicked back into the main hall.

Seeing this, T'Challa also realized something was wrong and quickly jumped down from the stairs, but the hall was already empty; Bucky's figure had long since disappeared.

Outside the building, chaos had already ensued; Sam had pursued Zemo all the way here, but faced with the crowded mass of people, even Sam quickly lost track of him.

Sam found a discarded suit jacket on the ground, walked over and picked it up, and upon realizing it was the one Zemo had been wearing, he knew that Zemo had probably already escaped.

Sam felt a burst of anger; first, he was beaten up by Bucky, and now Zemo had escaped right under his nose.

 

Chapter 98 Hand-Pulled Plane

After entrusting T'Challa, Bucky quickly arrived at a helipad, where a helicopter was conveniently parked nearby. Bucky immediately pulled open the helicopter door and promptly boarded the aircraft.

Meanwhile, Captain America also struggled to climb out of the elevator shaft. Fortunately, the floor where Bucky was imprisoned was not high; otherwise, even with Captain America's physical condition, he would have probably sustained serious injuries from the fall.

As soon as Captain America emerged from the elevator shaft, he saw the horrific scene along the way. Basically, all the Agents in the building who tried to stop Bucky were, without exception, knocked to the ground, unconscious.

Seeing this scene, Captain America also fell into deep thought. Currently, it was just Bucky alone in a rampage, capable of defeating so many Agents. If more such super soldiers appeared in the outside world, the resulting damage would be incalculable.

Captain America began to understand the significance of the Sokovia Accords. Perhaps for ordinary civilians, their existence indeed caused a major factor of trouble, after all, people like him were simply too powerful for ordinary people.

However, Captain America also knew this was not the time to dwell on it. At the same time, Captain America also received a transmission from the Command Center and rushed to the helipad upon hearing it.

As Captain America arrived at the helipad, he saw that Bucky had already started the helicopter's rotor and was beginning to ascend.

"Bucky, don't go!"

Captain America shouted loudly at Bucky, but Bucky merely glanced at him before pulling the control stick and piloting the helicopter into the air.

Seeing this, Captain America had no choice but to rush forward. Just as the helicopter was about to leave the helipad, Captain America darted to the underside of the helicopter and then forcefully grabbed onto its landing gear.

Captain America's biceps bulged, and for a moment, he was in a stalemate with the helicopter.

However, as Bucky's grip on the control stick steadily tightened, the helicopter's engine power surged. Captain America gradually began to show signs of exhaustion, and as the helicopter's altitude slowly increased, Captain America was gradually pulled to the edge of the helipad's platform.

In desperation, Captain America had no choice but to free one hand and firmly grasp a nearby railing.

The two once again fell into a stalemate.

As time passed, Bucky also realized that continuing this stalemate would become increasingly disadvantageous for him, and at this moment, the Agents downstairs had also noticed the situation here and were gradually beginning to surround the area.

In a hurry, Bucky had no choice but to control the helicopter to violently strike at Captain America.

Seeing this, Captain America quickly ducked his body, barely managing to escape being shredded by the propeller in the narrow space between the ground and the helicopter's rotor.

However, due to the helicopter's impact, the helipad immediately shattered, and Captain America was then crushed beneath the helicopter, falling directly into the lake below.

As he sank deeper and deeper, Captain America gradually felt his consciousness becoming more and more blurred. Just as Captain America was about to suffocate, a figure with a Vibranium Arm jumped into the lake and pulled Captain America out.

Meanwhile, Zemo, who had just escaped, learned from Bucky where the remaining HYDRA super soldiers were hidden, and immediately decided to take the earliest flight to Moscow.

After Bucky pulled Captain America out of the Water, just as he was about to leave, Sam arrived from somewhere, delivered a heavy blow to the back of Bucky's head, and then knocked him out.

When Bucky woke up, he found himself in a spacious warehouse, his arm pinned under a hydraulic press, unable to move.

Noticing the commotion, Captain America and Sam slowly walked in front of Bucky.

"Which Bucky are you now?"

Hearing Captain America's words, Bucky did not directly answer, but instead showed a smile and said, "Before you joined the super soldier experiment, you always liked to stuff newspapers into your shoe insoles when you went out."

Hearing this, Captain America, who had a tense expression, relaxed and said, "The museum doesn't tell you these things."

Seeing this, Sam on the side exclaimed, "Is that it?"

At this moment, Bucky only felt a soreness all over his body, and the memories in his mind were all jumbled up. He then struggled to speak, asking, "What have I done during this time?"

"Enough!"

"I knew things would turn out this way, but the things HYDRA left in my mind are still there. As long as that person says those damned words to me, I become uncontrollable and at his mercy."

"Who is that person?"

"I don't know."

"Many people died, explosions, framing—all done by that Doctor. All this just to be alone with you for ten minutes. At this point, you absolutely cannot say you don't know."

Hearing Captain America's words, Bucky fell into a moment of thought, then tried hard to recall: "He wanted to know about Siberia from me. That's where I was imprisoned."

Hearing this, Captain America showed a confused expression and said, "Why would he want to know that?"

Then Bucky revealed something that was definitely bad news for Captain America.

"Because I'm not the only Winter Soldier."

Immediately, Captain America and Sam exchanged glances, both able to feel the shock in each other's eyes.

Then Bucky fell back into his memories. In 1991, Bucky received orders from the HYDRA organization to seize a super serum capable of creating super soldiers like Captain America and Bucky from a scientist. He then selected five death squad members from his own team, who had committed countless murders, to serve as experimental subjects. After being injected with the super serum, they all successfully adapted to the serum, becoming Winter Soldiers. For many years, they had secretly helped HYDRA eliminate thorns in their side.

"How are they compared to you?"

"Worse."

"So, can that Doctor perfectly control them?"

"Absolutely. They are proficient in over thirty languages, skilled in assassination, infiltration, intelligence theft, and destabilizing governments under all sorts of circumstances. They are virtually omnipresent."

 

Chapter 99 Civil War

Under the shocked gazes of Captain America and Sam, he continued, "They are capable of making a powerful nation vanish without a trace overnight."

Hearing this, Captain America murmured to himself, "He once said he wanted to see an empire fall."

After roughly understanding the purpose of the Winter Soldier and that Doctor, Sam quietly whispered into Captain America's ear, "This is trouble. If this happened a week ago, we could handle it easily, but now, if we choose to seek Tony's help, it's uncertain whether Tony would believe us, let alone if the Accords would even allow him to help us."

After much thought, Captain America sighed helplessly and said, "This time, we can only rely on ourselves."

"Not necessarily. I do know someone."

Inside the Command Center of the Anti-Terrorism Task Force, the Minister of Defense, who had been pressuring the Avengers to sign the Sokovia Accords, appeared. Looking at the chaotic Command Center, the Minister of Defense asked irritably, "Let me guess, not only have you not received any useful information, but you've also lost them."

Hearing this, Tony quickly said, "No, we'll find them all very soon. Now, with the border forces patrolling twenty-four hours a day without interruption, and wanted posters displayed throughout the streets and alleys."

In response, the Minister of Defense walked over to Tony and said indifferently, "Tony, you know I can't entrust this matter to you. You can't be impartial on this matter. I will send my special forces."

Before the Minister of Defense could finish, Black Widow impatiently asked, "What if both sides open fire? Are you going to order them to shoot Steve Rogers?"

To this, the Minister of Defense merely sneered, "If he forces me to, then I will choose that. If it weren't for his actions in Nigeria, we could have dealt with Barnes in Romania long ago. Then, the people who are now dead would still be alive and well. Am I wrong?"

Seeing this, Tony said, "This matter cannot be easily resolved by just soldiers and guns. You must agree to send us together."

Hearing this, the Minister of Defense merely asked indifferently, "Then, what would be the difference between this time and last time?"

"This time, I won't be going in flats and a T-shirt. Give me seventy-two hours, and I will resolve this perfectly."

"No, I'll only give you thirty-six hours."

After leaving that last remark, the Minister of Defense walked out without looking back, not forgetting to finally instruct Tony, "I want Barnes, Rogers, Sam!"

"Thank you, Officer!"

After the Minister of Defense left, Tony asked Black Widow, "I feel my left arm is numb now, is this normal?"

Black Widow slowly stood up, walked over to Tony, then gently placed her hand on him and softly asked, "Are you alright?"

"I'm fine."

"We only have thirty-six hours, oh my god!"

"We're a bit short-handed."

"Yes!"

"If Hulk were here now, everything would be much simpler and more brutal."

To this, Black Widow asked indifferently, "Do you think even if Hulk were here now, he would choose to stand with us?"

Hearing this, Tony himself shook his head and smiled bitterly, "No, with that big guy's temper, he might punch me!"

"Where are the people you brought?"

"Downstairs. And where are your people?"

"Queens!"

Peter Parker, who had just returned from school, pushed open the door and saw his idol, Tony Stark, sitting on the sofa in his living room, chatting and laughing with his aunt.

Upon seeing Peter Parker return, both of them simultaneously turned their gaze towards him.

At first, Peter Parker, as usual, walked straight to the kitchen to pour himself a glass of Water, and then wanted to sit on the sofa.

It was then that Peter noticed Tony on the sofa. For a moment, Peter thought he was dreaming, looking at the two in disbelief, and then tentatively asked, "Mr. Stark?"

"Hello, Mr. Parker."

"Oh, this is truly insane!"

Tony then used a look to casually find an excuse to send Peter's aunt away, and then only the old and the young remained alone in the entire house.

Seeing Mei leave, Tony turned to Peter with a serious expression and said, "Next, I need to ask you a few questions that I already know the answers to."

With that, Tony took out his phone from his pocket, pulled up a video of Peter fighting thugs as Spider-Man, and then said indifferently, "This is you in the video, right?"

Although Peter's heart was already in turmoil, he still feigned composure and retorted, "Oh, Mr. Stark, I don't know what you're talking about. What do you mean?"

Seeing Peter still playing dumb in front of him, he continued, "Look, your moves are really strong. Good catch. Forty miles per hour, three thousand pounds. You caught it with your bare hands. Your abilities are truly not small."

Peter could no longer hide his guilt. He could only walk around Tony to his window, so he could turn his back to Tony, and after a moment of composure, he said, "You got all these videos from video websites, right? I have to tell you, these videos are fake, they're all made using special effects."

"Right, right, just like the flying saucers over Phoenix."

Though he said this, Tony's face showed a look of disdain. He then began to scan the entire room, and then he keenly noticed that a ventilation fan in the room looked extremely abnormal. He then casually picked up a nearby clothes drying rack and poked at the ventilation fan.

As the ventilation fan was poked open by Tony with the clothes drying rack, a Spider-Man suit fell out. Peter, seeing this, immediately flashed over, getting ahead of Tony, and tucked the fallen Spider-Mansuit into his arms.

 

Chapter 100: Winning Over

However, at this moment, no matter how Peter tried to explain, it was basically impossible to clear his name.

Tony also casually snatched the Spider-Man suit from Peter's hand, then held it and examined it back and forth.

Tony put on the Spider-Man suit's hood, turned to Peter, and asked, "How do you see anything with this thing on?"

Peter knew Tony was teasing him, so he simply remained silent.

Afterward, Tony couldn't suppress his curiosity and asked Peter how he went from being a high school student in Queens to the crime-fighting Spider-Man.

As soon as this topic came up, Peter was like a floodgate that had opened, unable to stop himself. After all, not everyone has the courage to immediately announce their super abilities to the World. Therefore, after becoming Spider-Man, Peter had been maintaining social stability in Queens, but he was still attacked by malicious keyboard warriors. Many times, even after Peter rescued people around him from danger, they didn't even know it was him who saved them.

For Peter, with his talkative personality, this was incredibly difficult, but to protect Mei's safety, Peterhad no choice but to keep his identity hidden beneath the Water.

Apparently, through their brief interaction, Peter was able to confirm that Tony had no ill intentions on this trip. Moreover, with Tony's status, he didn't need to target him at all. Since Tony had asked, Peterpoured out all the words he had been suppressing in his heart for years.

After Peter finished speaking, Tony directly stated the purpose of his trip. When Peter heard Tony invite him to join the Avengers, he was immediately ecstatic.

Meanwhile, Captain America and Tony were now completely on opposite sides. Tony immediately buried himself in the 36-hour capture mission after taking it on.

However, Captain America was currently short on manpower, so he had no choice but to contact some helpers by phone.

After receiving Captain America's call, Hawkeye unhesitatingly joined Captain America's camp, and Captain America also found Ant-Man Scott.

Thus, Captain America's team was basically assembled, but Captain America and the others' situation was still not optimistic. After all, besides Tony, Captain America and his team also had to face the Agents of the entire Anti-Terrorism Task Force. Although Nick Fury stated that he would not participate in the operation to capture Captain America and the others, he could not openly provide effective help to Captain America and the others. Captain America did not blame Nick Fury for this.

After all, during this special period, their special existences would be given special attention. If there was even a slight mistake in their actions at this time, it could lead to their demise.

After the team was assembled, Captain America and his group, with Sharon Carter's secret help, found an airport previously left behind by S.H.I.E.L.D., which also had a perfectly intact Quinjet parked there.

Just as Captain America and the others secretly arrived at the airport, they were, as expected, tracked down by Tony.

Seeing Black Widow, Tony, and Rhodes appear here, Captain America's heart sank sharply. Captain America could only hope that Arthur was not involved, otherwise, no one present would be able to stop Arthur.

However, Arthur's attitude towards the Sokovia Accords had always been very unclear, so at that moment, not only was Captain America's heart filled with apprehension, but Tony's was as well.

As soon as they met, Tony started his verbal assault: "Oh, I really didn't expect to run into old acquaintances in a place like this. What a coincidence, wouldn't you say, Captain?"

Captain America didn't care about this; instead, he planned to explain the whole situation to Tony, hoping to get his help, or at least prevent them from being completely at odds as they were now.

"Tony, that Doctor is the real mastermind behind this whole thing. We must go now and stop him before he achieves his goal."

Just as he finished speaking, Black Panther T'Challa leaped down from a high platform nearby.

Compared to their last meeting where they immediately came to blows, T'Challa and Captain Americapolitely greeted each other this time.

Then, seeing that most of the people had arrived, Tony spoke up, "Steve, do you know that before I left, General Ross told me I absolutely had to bring you guys back within thirty-six hours!"

"Twenty-four hours have already passed, and there isn't much time left. Could you please cooperate?"

"You've got the wrong target."

"Captain, your judgment is flawed. Your old comrade killed many innocent people yesterday, remember?"

"And there are five other super soldiers like him. I absolutely cannot let that Doctor find them before us, otherwise, they will all be controlled by that Doctor, and the consequences will be unimaginable."

"But have you thought through the consequences of doing this, Steve?"

Just then, Black Widow's figure emerged from behind Captain America.

"Do you really want to fight your way out?"

By this point, Tony understood that Captain America would not put down his shield and obediently return with him just because of a few words. So, he shouted towards the building behind Captain America, "Spider-Man!"

As Tony's words fell, Peter, in his Spider-Man suit, leaped over Captain America's head like a ghost, then shot a web from his wrist, taking the shield from Captain America's hand and firmly binding Captain America's wrist in the process.

"Good job, kid."

"Is that so? Okay, thank you, sir."

Seeing the old man and the young man in front of him, Captain America said faintly, "You're really going all out, Tony."

"You're really stupid! Why did you drag Peter away from his family? You know, I've been trying... trying not to let you tear our Avengers apart."

Hearing this, Captain America said angrily, "Is that so? When you decided to sign the Sokovia Accords, our Avengers was already torn apart by your own hands. Haven't you realized that yet!"
