American Comics: Borrowed Magic By Skill, Why Should I Return It?

Alexander Pierce.

Former SHIELD Director.

Also a close friend and mentor to Nick Fury.

It can be said that Nick Fury was able to become the SHIELD Director because of Pierce's support behind the scenes.

But now,

This aging, near-retirement old agent.

Stands alone in front of Nick Fury's vehicle.

With open arms, as if embracing an old friend, welcoming the approach of Nick Fury's vehicle.

Buzz--

Nick Fury steps on the gas pedal.

Without hesitation, he accelerates and crashes into Pierce.

Just now, he not only discovered Pierce's true identity, a high-ranking member of HYDRA.

But also unexpectedly exposed their conspiracy.

- Obtaining abilities from an unknown evil god through human sacrifices!

"I'm sorry, Nick Fury."

"You could have seen a better world."

"A world ruled by HYDRA, without oppression, without chaos..."

Watching the rapidly approaching vehicle.

Alexander Pierce remains calm, and even takes a few steps forward.

As he walks,

He paints a picture of a world ruled by HYDRA.

Until the vehicle approaches, Alexander Pierce casually raises one hand.

In an instant,

The shadows of surrounding objects quickly converge.

Forming a pitch-black spear in the hands of Alexander Pierce.

"Fury, you don't understand at all how powerful we have become."

Alexander Pierce says.

He throws the spear.

The supposedly bulletproof car of Nick Fury is pierced by the spear, completely penetrated!

The spear slants and pierces

From the front windshield to the vehicle chassis!

Directly pinning Nick Fury's vehicle to the ground!

Boom!

The speeding vehicle instantly stops.

The strong inertia causes Nick Fury's head to heavily hit the dashboard.

He almost passes out.

Creak~

Alexander Pierce approaches.

He unlocks the car door with his bare hands and pulls Nick Fury out, throwing him on the ground.

"See, this is the power I now possess."

"From the great god of shadows!"

Alexander Pierce spreads his arms.

And laughs recklessly.

It is a smile that has been suppressed for a long time and is finally released.

After laughing,

He looks down at Nick Fury.

"Fury, the rise of HYDRA is unstoppable."

"Join us."

...

"What is the price then, Pierce?"

"That god..."

There's no such thing as a free lunch.

Nick Fury spits out blood, understanding this better than anyone.

"The price?"

"Just a trivial amount of blood, plus one person's life."

Hearing Nick Fury's words, Alexander Pierce shakes his head disdainfully.

The mercy of the god of shadows is far beyond their imagination.

To bestow such great power, all it takes is to kill one person.

This deal... is really too cost-effective.

"Fury, the mercy of the god of shadows is something you and I cannot fathom."

Seeing that Nick Fury is unwilling to join,

Alexander Pierce prepares to take action.

Another spear made of shadows appears in his hand.

"Don't worry, Fury, your funeral will be grand."

Just as the spear is about to fall,

Boom!

A critical moment.

A beam of particles fell from the sky, sending Pierce flying.

Immediately after, Tony Stark landed with a bang.

The palm cannon was aimed at Pierce.

"I adjusted the intensity of the repulsor beam."

"Now, this shot is enough to vaporize half of your body."

"So I advise you not to move."

After the defeat in the previous war, Tony Stark had been working day and night on developing new armor.

He upgraded the weapon system of the armor completely.

"Stark?"

Nick Fury couldn't believe it.

He couldn't believe that Tony Stark came to save him.

"J.A.R.V.I.S received the alarm from your vehicle's AI."

"By the way, I am the vehicle engineer you were about to scold."

Tony half-jokingly said.

In reality, he only provided some technical guidance.

"Ah..."

Just as Tony Stark made his appearance.

A sigh suddenly came from the surroundings, and Chu Xiu walked out from the shadows.

"Chu Xiu?"

Nick Fury's one eye widened in disbelief.

How did so many people suddenly appear?

"Mo... Chu Xiu, when did you arrive?"

Tony Stark was also surprised.

J.A.R.V.I.S didn't detect the presence of anyone else on the scene.

"I've been here for a while."

"I was originally planning to come out after that bastard died."

"I didn't expect to save you. Good people don't live long, causing trouble for thousands of years."

Chu Xiu shrugged indifferently.

"???"

Nick Fury.

How did he become the troublemaker?

"He is the one from HYDRA."

Nick Fury pointed to Alexander Pierce next to him, indicating that he was the bad guy, and he was the good bastard.

Chu Xiu definitely wouldn't pay attention to Nick Fury's explanation.

After all, his purpose for coming here...

Was not to resolve the internal conflicts of S.H.I.E.L.D.

"What did you just say..."

"The Shadow God asked you to help him kill someone?"

Chu Xiu walked to Alexander Pierce's side.

Just like the previous few Shadow Sect disciples, the dark energy in this guy's body was also chaotic.

Simply put, he was just a piece of trash!

"Let me guess, the person you were supposed to kill... could it be me?"

Chu Xiu laughed.

"..."

Alexander Pierce responded to Chu Xiu's guess with silence.

As part of the deal with the Shadow God, the order to kill Chu Xiu at all costs had already been given to HYDRA's various branch bases.

"Even if you kill me today, it won't change the rise of HYDRA!"

"Cut off one head, and two will grow in its place!"

Facing the current situation,

Pierce knew he couldn't escape, but his attitude remained arrogant:

"And you!"

He looked at Chu Xiu:

"The Shadow God has given instructions!"

"The pursuit of you will never end, no matter where you run... HYDRA will follow you like a shadow!"

As a long-standing agent in a high position,

Alexander Pierce spoke with great momentum.

But Chu Xiu only responded with a look of contempt.

"I really don't understand if you guys are smart or stupid."

"If the so-called Shadow God in your mouths is really powerful, why doesn't it come and kill me itself?"

Chu Xiu mocked Pierce.

"You might as well believe that I am Qin Shihuang, and I can make you the Grand General of the State."

"Idiot~"

After cursing, Chu Xiu punched Pierce's head, causing it to explode.
