Before Deadpool could run two steps, the screeching brakes seemed to pierce one's eardrums.
A yellow taxi with several bullet holes in its windshield sped past him, ignoring traffic laws, followed by another, uh...
Honestly, Deadpool rarely described a man as having a 'curvy' figure, and he was very reluctant to do so, but the man chasing the car really was quite curvy.
Deadpool now knew what World he was in.
Captain America 1... Inside the yellow vintage car, Raymond's expression was extremely grim.
He was a HYDRA Agent embedded within the USA, going by the alias Craig, with the public identity of a minor leader in the U.S. State Department.
A few days ago, he received direct orders from his leader Schmidt, instructing him to sabotage the Strategic Scientific Reserve's super soldier project and retrieve a super soldier serum sample.
Loyal to HYDRA and highly skilled, he successfully operated within a few days, obtaining an on-site pass for the super soldier manufacturing experiment as a State Department representative.
Although he failed to completely sabotage the super soldier project, allowing the USA to still produce a super soldier, he did manage to obtain the serum sample and kill Dr. Erskine, who developed the super soldier serum, thus completing most of his mission.
Now, if he could successfully leave the USA and return to HYDRA, he would surely gain the leader's appreciation, and a promotion and raise would be inevitable.
But... Raymond glanced at the rearview mirror.
In the mirror, the blonde man, who had transformed from a skinny stick to a muscular brute after being injected with the super soldier serum, was relentlessly pursuing the car.
His big feet, at least a size forty-seven, kicked up a blur, and the car's current speed gave him not an iota of security.
Behind the car, the future Captain America—Steve Rogers—seized the opportunity, jumped onto a nearby car roof, and after several tumbles, successfully transferred to Raymond's car roof.
Seeing the man in the rearview mirror disappear, feeling the car shake, and hearing a loud thud on the roof, Raymond's face changed, knowing full well that something was terribly wrong.
As an Agent meticulously selected and trained by HYDRA, he decisively swerved the steering wheel hard to the left and floored the accelerator.
The engine roared violently, tires screeched, leaving four long black marks on the ground, and the smell of burning rubber filled the air as the car darted into a side alley.
Steve felt a huge force, and the powerful inertia caused him to involuntarily shift to the left, almost throwing him off the car.
He quickly gripped the door frame tightly, crouching low to counteract the inertia.
Seeing that this tactic was ineffective, Raymond controlled the steering wheel with one hand, pulled out his pistol, and fired several shots at the roof, all of which Steve miraculously dodged.
Raymond reloaded, intending to shoot again, but a large truck emerging from the intersection to the right forced him to grip the steering wheel with both hands again, but it was too late.
The large truck collided with the taxi's rear.
At such high speed, Raymond couldn't hold the steering wheel, and the taxi overturned, rolling several times due to inertia, scattering glass fragments everywhere.
Raymond, covered in injuries, struggled to open the car door, fired three shots around Steve, who had let go and fallen to the ground before the car overturned, then stumbled towards the port, hijacking a small boy along the way.
Steve was hesitant, not daring to pursue too closely.
Rounding a corner, Raymond leaned against the wall, clamping his hand over the small boy's mouth, hunched over and panting heavily.
"Hey buddy, if I may be so bold, are you a priest?"
A voice suddenly spoke beside him, startling Raymond into turning and firing a shot.
"Hey, don't do that. I just wanted to ask. If you're not a priest and don't have any special intentions for this little guy, how about I become your hostage instead?"
Only then did Raymond clearly see that facing him was a burly man wearing a red and black tight-fitting suit, a hood, two neon katanas on his back, and two guns at his waist, raising his hands in a standard French military salute.
Today's law (1/1).
Raymond pressed the gun against the small boy's head: "Who are you?"
"Hey, don't do that."
Raymond warned: "Throw your gun over here, or I'll kill him!"
He didn't have many bullets left.
"Buddy, I said don't do that."
Deadpool looked around, then suddenly clenched his fists and raised them, lowering his voice: "Hail HYDRA!"
Hearing this, Raymond's face lit up with joy: "Did the leader send you to meet me?"
"Yes."
Deadpool nodded, and at the same time naturally took the small boy from Raymond's hand, gently pinching the back of his neck, and the small boy's eyes rolled back as he fainted.
"The plan has changed. For safety, the leader wants you to hand over the super soldier serum to me, then escape alone by boat as a visible distraction for the U.S., while I, as the covert Agent, will bring the serum back and present it to our great leader."
"But..."
Raymond hesitated.
"Everything is for HYDRA, buddy, you must remember that!"
Leaning the small boy against the wall, Deadpool once again struck the HYDRA salute, declaring emphatically: "Hail HYDRA!!!"
"Yes, Hail HYDRA!"
Hearing this, Raymond's face flushed red, and he also performed a perfectly standard HYDRA salute.
Reaching into his embrace, he solemnly took out a test tube containing blue liquid and handed it to Deadpool. Halfway through, he seemed to remember something, and his outstretched hand stopped midway, as he vigilantly asked: "Officer, what's my name?"
If he was sent by the organization, he should know his real name.
Deadpool:...You're just a slightly higher-level extra with lines, who the hell remembers your name?
"Give it here! So much nonsense!"
Deadpool, with lightning speed, grabbed the serum and pulled it back, simultaneously punching out all of Raymond's teeth, and then kicking him around the corner, where he collided squarely with Steve, who had been stealthily creeping up.
Steve, seeing someone fly out, instinctively caught him, and upon seeing it was Raymond, immediately applied a strong lock, man on man.
Raymond was pinned by the thick biceps, unable to move, his head nearly crushed by the massive chest muscles.
Since his teeth had been knocked out by Deadpool, he didn't even have a chance to bite into the poison hidden in his tooth gap, and could only twist and struggle futilely.
Steve held Raymond down with one hand, while the other hand searched him, his expression changing.
Found it!
Pah!
Didn't find it!
The super soldier serum was a slender glass tube, and if hidden on the body, it should be easily found with a quick search. Not finding it meant it was either hidden or transferred.
He flipped Raymond over, and punched him in the face: "Where's the serum? Where did you hide it? Hand it over!"
"Ho~ ho~ Pah!"
Raymond's mouth was full of blood, his face swollen, and he spat a mouthful of bloody foam at Steve, revealing a sinister smile: "You won't find it, you'll never find it!"
Now he could only hope that the tight-suited pervert really was from HYDRA and would actually bring the serum back to HYDRA.
That way, he would have made another contribution to HYDRA.
Steve punched him hard in the face again.
"Hahahahaha! Cut off one head, two more shall take its place! Hail HYDRA!"
Raymond let out an almost insane laugh, then was knocked unconscious by Steve's punch.
