When the Super British Ruled the Earth[British and American]
Chapter 23 023
The earthlings living on the earth do not know that the complexity of the power structure on the earth is one of the best in the galaxy.It can even be said that the living environment of some aliens is much simpler than that of people on earth.
Most parts of the universe are not yet developed to the point where resources are allocated steadily and only struggles are fought politically.The universe is still the cruel survival law of the dark forest, and the law of the jungle is still prey on the whole.Therefore, Silia, who grew up on the strength and the plundering consciousness of the strong, has a deep understanding of the nature of the jungle, but it is impossible for her to immediately understand the complexity of the people on earth.
The current stable situation on the earth is jointly maintained by different forces.There are organizations including the human government, X-Men, Hydra, S.H.I.E.L.D., Avengers, Justice League, etc. have reached an agreement.The stories of each organization can be written into a novel if taken alone.
And as the most well-paid organization and the only organization with a self-slogan of 'stupid Xixi (Tony)', Hydra's cohesion is really scary.
Unlike S.H.I.E.L.D., although both parties are surprisingly similar in composition, S.H.I.E.L.D. is like an ordinary place for agents to go to work, while the working atmosphere of Hydra is more like the feeling of a gangster family.After a double-pronged approach of adoration and profit, Hydra's employees are very loyal.
Hydra is the first organization on earth to start researching rough stones. As early as World War II, they were already handy with this matter.Of course, Hydra at that time had nothing to do with James, it was just a purely evil organization.
As the oldest person in the current superhero, James Barnes' actual age is actually much older than he looks - he is just over a hundred years old.When he was really young, the earth was not as peaceful and orderly as it is now.
It was World War II at that time, and he and his best friend Steve Rogers were both young men who wanted to go to the front line to defend the country, but Steve was weak and failed the medical examination, so he did not fight until half a year later. After receiving the serum, he successfully entered the army.
And Bucky went to the battlefield ahead of time. When Steve passed the serum test, Bucky was seriously injured in a battle. The head snake picked it up... It turns out that the war between the U.S. Army and the German Army gradually shifted from the battlefield to the soldiers. The investment in combat power of both sides is not limited to various weapons, but also research and development on the soldiers.
serum.
When James was captured by Hydra, he had lost too much blood and was on the verge of life and death.Hydra scientists stopped the bleeding and injected serum for him. They were not international doctors with lofty sentiments, it was a pure human experiment.Many captured American soldiers died because of the rejection behavior caused by the injection of serum. The same is true for the serum injected by Hydra for Bucky. His body is inherently weak, and there is an 80.00% chance of dying directly.
But he survived... the serum worked in his body, so the Hydra people helped him connect the iron arm.He has a one-in-a-thousand probability, among other successful people, many soldiers' minds have become crazy, and he is the only one who has accepted the serum without side effects.
At the same time, Steve, who was on the battlefield, heard about Bucky's disappearance, and immediately went deep into the enemy's hinterland to look for him despite violating military orders. The two cooperated internally and externally, and rescued a large number of captured soldiers.
Steve wanted to take Bucky back, but he refused.
During these days in Hydra, James gradually saw the true appearance of the world.These big soldiers who are dedicated to serving the country are just the most cold figures among politicians. The United States participated in the war not only to prevent the war, but also because it was profitable, even if the price paid was the sacrifice of countless front-line American soldiers.
He realized that America was doing the same thing as Hydra, they were experimenting with their own and each other's soldiers.In the face of huge overall interests, the sacrifice of a single individual is as light as a drop of water falling in the ocean.
He also realized that even if the war was won, after a brief peace, America would still be no good.One war is over, and there are still countless wars in the future.He despaired of this world full of interests and deceit, and he could not accept such a future.
Leaving Steve to take his dog tags and military uniform away, James bid farewell to his old self before turning and joining Hydra.He has been undercover in Hydra throughout the war zone, gaining trust and slowly climbing up.Red Skull doesn't trust him, and tries to kill him in every possible way.It's a pity that just when he was about to succeed, World War II was coming to an end. When he and Steve were robbing the Rubik's Cube, the Red Skull disappeared in the light of the gemstone.
James seized that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity -- he seized the opening when Hydra was leaderless and at its weakest.
Not all Hydra employees were willing to surrender, so Bucky had to suppress them in the most primitive way.Steve stayed here for a while and helped him a bit. After the situation stabilized, Steve decided to leave here.
"Bucky, you're so different from what you used to be, I can barely recognize you," Steve said to him as parting.The man's blue eyes were a little sad, "Our ideas are no longer the same, I can't agree with what you have done, but I still hope you are safe. Goodbye, my friend, and good luck."
Then too many things happened... James' talent in politics and management gradually revealed. The former Hydra had some very bad things. James has made things right in the past few decades, got rid of the dross and kept the essence.In the ten years after the end of World War II, he reshuffled Hydra, gradually cleared all the people from the past, and replaced them with clean new blood.
In fact, James has always believed that there is no difference in philosophy between him and Steve.Steve wants to fight for a better America, and so does Bucky, and he's working for a better future for humanity, in his own way—even though that's unacceptable to Steve.
Like Bucky, Steve rose to higher and higher ranks in the postwar U.S. Army.There are occasional letters between the two of them. Steve, as before, is very out of gregarious, and he can't understand the behavior of those politicians and some senior generals. He chooses to train soldiers and do real things for the United States. The upper echelons he hates.
Bucky thinks Steve realizes that the 'national elite' who are above the common people are cancerous, but Steve won't admit it.
Later, Steve left the army, and he formed a special operations organization, the Strategic Science Corps - which was the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D.Steve definitely learned Hydra's organizational model during the time he helped Bucky take over the Hydra forces. Steve also has excellent strategic skills, but he is always unwilling to use them.
The positioning of the two organizations is very advanced, so they will always have some confrontation in resources and personnel in the next ten years. The most confrontational time is that James, who personally set out the task, met and also expected him to come, so Steve came and waited.
One night, on a rooftop in a certain city, Bucky was holding a suitcase of important materials in his hand, and Steve was watching him from the other side, with a gun pointed at Bucky.
"It's not right for you to do this," Steve said softly. "The Bucky I know is kind, soft-hearted, and sincere. He wouldn't do something like this."
"You're right, Steve. I've changed. I've died for my country once, and I don't owe anyone any more now." James said, "Since you were young, you have always been more determined than me, and you have your own My opinion, so I am always influenced by you and listen to you. But that narrow escape made me see the nature of this world, we are too small, Steve, we can't protect everyone with only the two of us .”
"So you would rather be wanted by all countries and be an enemy of the whole world, and get all the resources you want?"
"I didn't hurt anyone," Bucky said. "If you think I'm the worst, kill me. I won't back down. I'll get everything I want. And I'm saving your life."
"What are you talking about?" Steve frowned.
"You and I are both the most successful and powerful among the soldiers injected with the serum. After you, no one in the US military is stronger than you." Bucky said calmly, "They trust you now, I adore you, but one day they will start to envy you, become suspicious of you, be on guard and restrict you everywhere. If there is such a day, I will save you."
Steve watched him, breathing softly, tired and helpless.
"Bucky, I know everything you said, and I am prepared, but the solution should not only be in such an extreme way." He said, "Those high-risk resources should not be held in the hands of a single organization, Hydra There's too much stuff in your hands, it shouldn't be."
James sighed, holding his suitcase with his other hand in his pocket, standing on the edge of the building, watching Steve from a distance.His expression was as soft and gentle as before, but there was a firm flame in his eyes.
"You're right, our ideas are different." Bucky said softly, "but what can you do?"
Steve was stunned, and under the black muzzle of his gun, James turned over and jumped off the roof, as light as a deer under the night, not worried about whether Steve would shoot at all.Immediately afterwards, a helicopter rose into the sky and gradually moved away.
Since then, the relationship between the two of them seems to have become more like friends than enemies, and they no longer exchange letters.Bucky is closely researching new weapons and serums in Hydra, but the weapons are progressing rapidly, and the serums have little effect.
His undercover agent at the top of the United States reported back the information-the Strategic Science Corps has made rapid progress under the effect of serum research. It is said that a man named Howard Stark joined them. After another year, they developed a strong serum. Unfortunately, except for Steve, who has an extraordinary physique, no one can bear such pain.
Meanwhile, Bucky realizes that the serum Hydra injected him with is inferior to Steve's, that they both outlive the average person, but there's not that much of a difference.From the year when the strong serum was developed, James can receive a box of serum from Steve every five years. It turns out that as long as the serum is injected every five years, the body can always be kept at its strongest age, and Complement the combat power.
Later, many things happened, the earth was in chaos, conflicts broke out between mutants and humans, and conflicts between human governments and superhumans... The earth became more and more chaotic, and wars broke out frequently. James saw that he was at the center of conflicts Steve became more and more passive.
But he can't help it, there is no conflict between him and Steve, it's just that they have different ideas that cannot persuade each other, so they occupy different camps.They are still best friends and still trust each other.But James couldn't pull Steve out of the center of the vortex, because of the man's damn righteous sense of conviction.
Bucky gradually came into contact with some like-minded friends, such as Howard's son Tony Stark, a naturally lonely and intelligent man, who shared the same views as James.Tony is even smarter and more talented than Howard, and he convenes superhumans who are also fed up with this shit like world, and the counterattack of superhumans who have been marginalized over the years has begun.
The close war lasted for many years, until 15 years ago, Superman appeared - Bucky didn't know what happened to him, but when he appeared, he looked angry and tired, with absolute strength that mortals could not resist, Suppressed all wars on earth by himself.
The leaders of all the superhero organizations on the earth and the leaders of many human governments began to negotiate. The superhumans refused to return the control of the earth to humans again, because they have always brought suffering and war.
Thus, the opinions of the heads of humanity were ignored.They can't compete with superhumans who are smarter and stronger than humans.The superheroes have signed an agreement to never provoke war, maintain the safety of the earth, and maintain friendship with each other forever, and share all resources and discoveries with each other.
This is the new world James wants.
Eliminate strife and war forever, no one gets hurt anymore, whether he's normal or mutant or what the hell... all being able to live together as equals.
He was happy, he got on well with all his new friends, all the famous superheroes signed the friendship agreement, only one refused.
Steve rejected it all.
"It's not right," he said, as straight and aboveboard as ever, before all the superheroes, before Superman, Steve said, "if the price of peace on Earth is freedom, this peace in chains What is there to pursue? You are not a god, Clark, and neither are we. We are not qualified to judge the future of 60 billion people on earth. Not even Thor has ever interfered with the earth. This is a twisted peace , which goes against human nature."
Clark watched Steve silently, their eyes meeting.
"You're right, I'm not a god, and I don't want to control the future of the earth." Superman said, "But someone has to control the direction of the earth. It's been humans before, and now it's our turn. I think I ask you, Steve—whose perspective are you standing on now?"
"I'm on the side of freedom," Steve said. "What humans did was wrong before, and what we're doing now is wrong."
Clark leaned back in his seat slowly, and he watched Steve, blue eyes meeting blue eyes.
"You are a very lucky man, Mister Rogers. You have never lost someone important in your life, and you don't understand what pain it is." He said, "If your most important person is abused by human beings, tortured ——Can you still say what you said now so easily? Over the years, countless non-human beings in this world who are incompatible with the world because of their abilities have been tortured, don't you think we should give them justice?"
"You're right. I know it hurts. If it happened to someone close to me, I'd be in pain, I'd be sad, I'd seek revenge on the humans who did those bad things," Steve said, "But I won't Therefore, if you want to control all human beings, human nature is very complicated, Clark, you are close to human beings, but you are not human after all."
Superman fell silent.
"I actually like you, Steve," he said. "I can live with you not joining us, but what would you do if you left here?"
Steve stared at him, his blue eyes were extremely calm, "I will resist you."
"What a bigot," Tony murmured.
Steve looked at them, his eyes lingering on James for a long time before turning away.
"I believe that your absolute authority can temporarily wipe out war, but it cannot erase the fear in people's hearts. What you think you bring is peace, but you are actually the next extreme inequality. As long as there is fear, war is inevitable " Steve looked at Clark, and he said calmly, "This world will never be equal, if you forcefully pursue this, it is a big mistake. From now on, ordinary humans will be afraid of superhumans, And superhumans, they're going to be afraid of you, Clark."
Clark's eyes were dark, and Steve could already feel the tension in the room.In a gap of silence, he turned and jumped from the window, almost at the same time, the other superheroes moved.
Steve is too authoritative, and the heroes admire him to know how dangerous he is.They all went out to chase and intercept. Although Steve lost to everyone's joint attack, his familiarity with everyone's strategic analysis allowed him to keep escaping.
Only Superman and James were left in the conference hall.
Superman watched him silently.
"Steve is a respectable man, I don't think anyone would want to kill him, that's our loss," he said, "You should know that only you can beat him."
James was silent.
……
Just when Steve was about to escape from the city, a figure fell from the viaduct in front of him.Steve stopped walking, he raised his head and saw James standing there, his mouth was slightly pursed, his green eyes as gentle as spring water were exactly the same as the high-spirited James in military uniform in his early 20s, but Steve Husband knows he has changed.
Still, Steve was lost for a moment.
"I never thought that we would come to this point." Steve murmured, "We shouldn't be like this. We should always trust and support each other."
"We're the same way now," James said. "Sign that deal, Steve, it's good for everybody."
"I'm not going to sign any pact, whether it's against humans or against us," Steve insisted. "That's not right."
Sighing softly, James leaped off the bridge, and the roof of a car collapsed under the force of his fall.He took off his coat and moved his iron hands.
"That's the only way to fight," he said. "Unless you kill me, I won't let you go."
Steve's eyes darkened.
"You're threatening me, and you've never done that before," Steve whispered. "Well, I won't see you guys doing this unless you kill me."
James frowned, and he punched Steve in the cheek, and Steve caught the punch hard, and he fell backwards, onto the floor.
"Go for it!" Bucky snarled, "Let's fight!"
Steve sat on the ground, propped himself up, and said to himself, "It's all my fault that you've come this far... I shouldn't have helped you defeat Hydra back then, I should have brought you back to the motherland. Otherwise you would have Won't……"
James yanks Steve up, irritated, and reaches out to push Steve's shoulder.
"We should have had a fight, shouldn't we?" Bucky said. "Come on, Steve, I know you've been pissed at what I've done for a long time—now's a good time to blow it off."
"That's not going to solve the problem," Steve said quietly. "Unless you kill me, you're going to let me go."
James stared at Steve, his deep green eyes surrounded him like streams of water, and suddenly they were still young and innocent guys in their early 20s, wanting to defend their homeland and go to war together.
"You and I both know that we won't hurt each other," James said, "but you still underestimate me, Steve."
Steve froze for a moment, suddenly felt that the world was spinning, he lost control of his body, and was about to fall to the ground, Bucky reached out to hold his arm, stabilizing his body.
"You—when—" Steve murmured.
"You can't die." Steve heard James murmur in his ear, "but I can't let you ruin this... I waited 70 years for this to happen."
Steve was slowly put on the ground by Bucky, the blue sky poured into his eyes, his consciousness began to groggy, he saw the white cloaked Superman slowly falling in front of him.
"They're afraid of you, Superman..." Steve's lips moved slightly, "You're after... something that doesn't exist."
Superman crouched slowly in front of him.
"I know, I don't care anymore." Clark said in a low voice, "I have nothing. Now I just want peace on earth."
……
James freezes Steve in the cryogenic chamber.HYDRA has a well-established process for brainwashing - and so does S.H.I.E.L.D., which they use to control once lawless bad guys.James' subordinates are persuading him to brainwash Steve. Steve's top combat skills are unrivaled. With his ability, Hydra will be invincible.
But Bucky has never done this before. He knows better than anyone how strong-willed Steve is. He was able to succeed only because Steve was unprepared. If it happens again, maybe the situation will be completely different up.Unless the world is destroyed, he will never release Steve. If Steve regains consciousness, the next hunt will be much more difficult.
And—he didn't want Steve to suffer from brainwashing.
The world may be wrong, but it is the best way out for now.
"Why are you ignoring me?"
When James was in a daze, he suddenly heard a substandard Earth language.
He regained his composure and looked down at Celia.
"Huh? What did you say?" He said softly.
"Why is he frozen here?" Celia asked.
"For the peace of the earth." James stretched out his hand and gently fiddled with her hair unconsciously. "The current peace and balance of the earth is very precious and rare, and we all have to maintain this together."
"Will you let him out in the future?" Celia asked again.
"I don't know," James said honestly. "At least for now, he's alive and well—and freezing is good for his skin. Maybe in a few years, I'll have to admit he's more handsome than me."
Although James explained, Celia still felt that human behavior was more perverted than she imagined, and she would freeze her important friends. What kind of habit is this?Alternative collector?
What a group of strange earthlings, she likes it.
But I have to say that when Celia passed through the rows of cryogenic chambers, the more she watched her, the more frightened she became-human beings have almost zero sense of existence in the universe these years, and only a few people on earth have lived in the universe. life, while the other races in the universe feel contemptuous and dispensable for the earth... When did they develop to the point where they are so organized now?
Thinking about it now, their previous plan to snatch the infinite rough stone was too naive.How can the race that owns most of the gems be an idler?
"There's nothing else to see, do you want to go back?" James asked gentlemanly.
Xilia nodded, and her gaze stayed on the face of the blond man in the cryogenic cabin for a few seconds before turning away.
On the way back, the atmosphere was a little silent.Rumlow felt that he was wrong, and he was even more silent--as a 20-year old employee, Rumlow knew that every time Bucky visited Steve, he would always fall into a state of gratification and depression.Especially this time it was him who started the conversation... Rumlow tried hard to reduce his sense of existence.
"Rumlow."
When getting on the elevator, James's gentle, spring-like voice sounded like a devil to Rumlow. Rumlow kept his agent's cold face and looked at Bucky.Bucky was smiling softly.
"Aren't you bored recently?" He said, "The cryo chambers underground need to be wiped down, and this important task is entrusted to you."
Rumlow still maintained a cold face, but his Adam's apple squirmed.
"Two thousand three hundred, all of them have to be wiped?"
"Yes." James smiled, "Go."
Rumlow raised his head and wept, and had no choice but to walk out of the elevator.
The elevator doors closed, leaving only Bucky and Celia.Bucky didn't know what he was thinking, thoughtfully.He turned his head to look at Celia, who was still looking around like an ignorant and curious kitten.She is not completely ignorant, her icy blue animal-like pupils are always turning around, you can know that she is thinking of some trick or breaking the water again, but it is strangely not offensive.
James felt it, and he said, "How do you feel about Earth?"
"Which aspect?" Celia seemed to be 80.00% convinced by the earth. She said, "Your food is delicious, your people are very strong, and your city construction is also very good."
"I'm talking about our political and power structure," Bucky said. "I don't think a power structure like Earth is common in the galaxy, is it?"
"That's true." Xilia nodded in agreement, "Your lives are too tedious, most of the planets are just calling."
"Then do you think it's better like this, or as good as you?" James asked.
"What do you think?" Celia asked back.
"I don't know," Bucky said honestly, "I think it's all right, but some people don't think it's that good."
"So are you happier now than before?"
Bucky thinks about it, and he's really happy most of the time, except for the sound of Steve still freezing beneath his feet - which he doesn't want to do, but there's nothing he can do about it.He hated the feeling of powerlessness.
But he tried his best to give Steve the best. Look at Steve's freezer cabin. Compared with other people's, it's an invincible luxury version.
"If you feel happy and meaningful now, that's enough." Shelia said, "There's no need to think so much—and there are many dictatorships and powers in other planets that control the entire planet. , but their planet is still constantly at war, and ordinary people don’t live well. It’s not as good as you. I think the earth is pretty good, at least unarmed ordinary people won’t be hurt.”
And anyway, the food on Earth is really good.Celia thought.
She didn't know that what she was exposed to from the very beginning was the meals made by the best chefs on the planet. Not to mention such world-class high-end cuisine, even if it was given to her by ordinary people, it would be enough for her to grow up drinking nutrient solution. Celia was shocked.
Jarvis, the highest intelligence, continuously calculates and analyzes the culinary experience of all human beings, and adds the best food ingredients to make the super top-level food. For Silia, it is a direct leap from a bark-gnawing refugee to a planetary level. The VIP treatment is simply too exciting.
If Thanos wants to come back to pick her up now, maybe she has to think about it.
And on this side, James finally understands why Thanos kept this seemingly useless young girl on his ship for so long.Who would hate a cute, smart little girl who knows how to read words and expressions, and can always give herself great satisfaction.
——The most important thing is to be able to talk and have a sweet mouth.
James was in a good mood, they came to the top floor, James said, "Come on, by the way, I will show you the canteen of our Hydra, and let you have a taste—"
"Something more delicious than Jarvis?" Celia added expectantly.
"...Let you taste what is called plain and ordinary dishes." Bucky completed the latter words solemnly.
Celia: 0_0 At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it.
Before Xilia went to taste the civilian dishes, the time paused and moved forward five hours.
Night, New York, Black Street.
The red and gold Iron Man who opened the box in mid-air and hovered in mid-air in the form of a girl's flight, Toby Parker with a terrifying expression on his face, and Little Peter who was caught straight.
Peter knew he was miserable.For this lawless adolescent boy, his greatest fear and awe will always be his elder brother who has taken the place of the absent father.
There is a six-year age difference between the two of them. Peter is in his final year of high school and will be entering college next year, while Toby will be graduating next year.Yes, they both have the ability of spiders, the only difference is that Toby can shoot spider webs by himself, while Peter needs the assistance of instruments.
"This is not interesting at all, Mr. Stark!" Peter screamed, and the little Spider-Man, who was so cool just now, was being held by his collar by his brother, feeling extremely wronged.
Through the eyes of the steel armor, Tony, who witnessed the whole process, was in a happy mood.
"Have a nice evening, you little troublemakers," he said.
The red-gold Iron Man flew towards the street, and began to spray mist in a large amount-the mist contained a potion that had no side effects and could make the person sprayed forget the memory of the past two hours.
Peter broke the balance of the streets of criminals and the city, so Tony has to restore everything to the way it was before.Of course, he wouldn't do such a troublesome thing himself. After taking a look, he handed everything over to Jarvis.
Tony felt that he created Jarvis when he was young, even from the perspective of his life, it was very wise.If it weren't for Jarvis to help him deal with these tedious little things, he might have stayed away from the earth because of his impatience.
Iron Man closes himself at the same time Tony cuts the connection, looks up to the sky, and flies away gracefully.
The brothers watched Iron Man disappear before looking down at each other.
Peter swallowed, and after weighing the left and right, he tried to show an innocent and pitiful puppy smile.
"Brother." He said obediently, "It's all a misunderstanding."
Toby raised his eyebrows slightly. He stretched out his hand and pulled his brother to his eyes. His slender fingers brushed the black tights on Peter.
"Stealing my battle clothes is also a misunderstanding?" He said, "Could it be that this clothes ran on you while you were asleep?"
Peter didn't even hear what Toby was, so he nodded sharply, with a look of 'yes, yes, yes', and then looked at Toby expectantly, hoping that he would forgive him and forget about it.
Toby: ...
This child really doesn't fight all day, and goes to the house to expose the tiles.
Most parts of the universe are not yet developed to the point where resources are allocated steadily and only struggles are fought politically.The universe is still the cruel survival law of the dark forest, and the law of the jungle is still prey on the whole.Therefore, Silia, who grew up on the strength and the plundering consciousness of the strong, has a deep understanding of the nature of the jungle, but it is impossible for her to immediately understand the complexity of the people on earth.
The current stable situation on the earth is jointly maintained by different forces.There are organizations including the human government, X-Men, Hydra, S.H.I.E.L.D., Avengers, Justice League, etc. have reached an agreement.The stories of each organization can be written into a novel if taken alone.
And as the most well-paid organization and the only organization with a self-slogan of 'stupid Xixi (Tony)', Hydra's cohesion is really scary.
Unlike S.H.I.E.L.D., although both parties are surprisingly similar in composition, S.H.I.E.L.D. is like an ordinary place for agents to go to work, while the working atmosphere of Hydra is more like the feeling of a gangster family.After a double-pronged approach of adoration and profit, Hydra's employees are very loyal.
Hydra is the first organization on earth to start researching rough stones. As early as World War II, they were already handy with this matter.Of course, Hydra at that time had nothing to do with James, it was just a purely evil organization.
As the oldest person in the current superhero, James Barnes' actual age is actually much older than he looks - he is just over a hundred years old.When he was really young, the earth was not as peaceful and orderly as it is now.
It was World War II at that time, and he and his best friend Steve Rogers were both young men who wanted to go to the front line to defend the country, but Steve was weak and failed the medical examination, so he did not fight until half a year later. After receiving the serum, he successfully entered the army.
And Bucky went to the battlefield ahead of time. When Steve passed the serum test, Bucky was seriously injured in a battle. The head snake picked it up... It turns out that the war between the U.S. Army and the German Army gradually shifted from the battlefield to the soldiers. The investment in combat power of both sides is not limited to various weapons, but also research and development on the soldiers.
serum.
When James was captured by Hydra, he had lost too much blood and was on the verge of life and death.Hydra scientists stopped the bleeding and injected serum for him. They were not international doctors with lofty sentiments, it was a pure human experiment.Many captured American soldiers died because of the rejection behavior caused by the injection of serum. The same is true for the serum injected by Hydra for Bucky. His body is inherently weak, and there is an 80.00% chance of dying directly.
But he survived... the serum worked in his body, so the Hydra people helped him connect the iron arm.He has a one-in-a-thousand probability, among other successful people, many soldiers' minds have become crazy, and he is the only one who has accepted the serum without side effects.
At the same time, Steve, who was on the battlefield, heard about Bucky's disappearance, and immediately went deep into the enemy's hinterland to look for him despite violating military orders. The two cooperated internally and externally, and rescued a large number of captured soldiers.
Steve wanted to take Bucky back, but he refused.
During these days in Hydra, James gradually saw the true appearance of the world.These big soldiers who are dedicated to serving the country are just the most cold figures among politicians. The United States participated in the war not only to prevent the war, but also because it was profitable, even if the price paid was the sacrifice of countless front-line American soldiers.
He realized that America was doing the same thing as Hydra, they were experimenting with their own and each other's soldiers.In the face of huge overall interests, the sacrifice of a single individual is as light as a drop of water falling in the ocean.
He also realized that even if the war was won, after a brief peace, America would still be no good.One war is over, and there are still countless wars in the future.He despaired of this world full of interests and deceit, and he could not accept such a future.
Leaving Steve to take his dog tags and military uniform away, James bid farewell to his old self before turning and joining Hydra.He has been undercover in Hydra throughout the war zone, gaining trust and slowly climbing up.Red Skull doesn't trust him, and tries to kill him in every possible way.It's a pity that just when he was about to succeed, World War II was coming to an end. When he and Steve were robbing the Rubik's Cube, the Red Skull disappeared in the light of the gemstone.
James seized that once-in-a-lifetime opportunity -- he seized the opening when Hydra was leaderless and at its weakest.
Not all Hydra employees were willing to surrender, so Bucky had to suppress them in the most primitive way.Steve stayed here for a while and helped him a bit. After the situation stabilized, Steve decided to leave here.
"Bucky, you're so different from what you used to be, I can barely recognize you," Steve said to him as parting.The man's blue eyes were a little sad, "Our ideas are no longer the same, I can't agree with what you have done, but I still hope you are safe. Goodbye, my friend, and good luck."
Then too many things happened... James' talent in politics and management gradually revealed. The former Hydra had some very bad things. James has made things right in the past few decades, got rid of the dross and kept the essence.In the ten years after the end of World War II, he reshuffled Hydra, gradually cleared all the people from the past, and replaced them with clean new blood.
In fact, James has always believed that there is no difference in philosophy between him and Steve.Steve wants to fight for a better America, and so does Bucky, and he's working for a better future for humanity, in his own way—even though that's unacceptable to Steve.
Like Bucky, Steve rose to higher and higher ranks in the postwar U.S. Army.There are occasional letters between the two of them. Steve, as before, is very out of gregarious, and he can't understand the behavior of those politicians and some senior generals. He chooses to train soldiers and do real things for the United States. The upper echelons he hates.
Bucky thinks Steve realizes that the 'national elite' who are above the common people are cancerous, but Steve won't admit it.
Later, Steve left the army, and he formed a special operations organization, the Strategic Science Corps - which was the predecessor of S.H.I.E.L.D.Steve definitely learned Hydra's organizational model during the time he helped Bucky take over the Hydra forces. Steve also has excellent strategic skills, but he is always unwilling to use them.
The positioning of the two organizations is very advanced, so they will always have some confrontation in resources and personnel in the next ten years. The most confrontational time is that James, who personally set out the task, met and also expected him to come, so Steve came and waited.
One night, on a rooftop in a certain city, Bucky was holding a suitcase of important materials in his hand, and Steve was watching him from the other side, with a gun pointed at Bucky.
"It's not right for you to do this," Steve said softly. "The Bucky I know is kind, soft-hearted, and sincere. He wouldn't do something like this."
"You're right, Steve. I've changed. I've died for my country once, and I don't owe anyone any more now." James said, "Since you were young, you have always been more determined than me, and you have your own My opinion, so I am always influenced by you and listen to you. But that narrow escape made me see the nature of this world, we are too small, Steve, we can't protect everyone with only the two of us .”
"So you would rather be wanted by all countries and be an enemy of the whole world, and get all the resources you want?"
"I didn't hurt anyone," Bucky said. "If you think I'm the worst, kill me. I won't back down. I'll get everything I want. And I'm saving your life."
"What are you talking about?" Steve frowned.
"You and I are both the most successful and powerful among the soldiers injected with the serum. After you, no one in the US military is stronger than you." Bucky said calmly, "They trust you now, I adore you, but one day they will start to envy you, become suspicious of you, be on guard and restrict you everywhere. If there is such a day, I will save you."
Steve watched him, breathing softly, tired and helpless.
"Bucky, I know everything you said, and I am prepared, but the solution should not only be in such an extreme way." He said, "Those high-risk resources should not be held in the hands of a single organization, Hydra There's too much stuff in your hands, it shouldn't be."
James sighed, holding his suitcase with his other hand in his pocket, standing on the edge of the building, watching Steve from a distance.His expression was as soft and gentle as before, but there was a firm flame in his eyes.
"You're right, our ideas are different." Bucky said softly, "but what can you do?"
Steve was stunned, and under the black muzzle of his gun, James turned over and jumped off the roof, as light as a deer under the night, not worried about whether Steve would shoot at all.Immediately afterwards, a helicopter rose into the sky and gradually moved away.
Since then, the relationship between the two of them seems to have become more like friends than enemies, and they no longer exchange letters.Bucky is closely researching new weapons and serums in Hydra, but the weapons are progressing rapidly, and the serums have little effect.
His undercover agent at the top of the United States reported back the information-the Strategic Science Corps has made rapid progress under the effect of serum research. It is said that a man named Howard Stark joined them. After another year, they developed a strong serum. Unfortunately, except for Steve, who has an extraordinary physique, no one can bear such pain.
Meanwhile, Bucky realizes that the serum Hydra injected him with is inferior to Steve's, that they both outlive the average person, but there's not that much of a difference.From the year when the strong serum was developed, James can receive a box of serum from Steve every five years. It turns out that as long as the serum is injected every five years, the body can always be kept at its strongest age, and Complement the combat power.
Later, many things happened, the earth was in chaos, conflicts broke out between mutants and humans, and conflicts between human governments and superhumans... The earth became more and more chaotic, and wars broke out frequently. James saw that he was at the center of conflicts Steve became more and more passive.
But he can't help it, there is no conflict between him and Steve, it's just that they have different ideas that cannot persuade each other, so they occupy different camps.They are still best friends and still trust each other.But James couldn't pull Steve out of the center of the vortex, because of the man's damn righteous sense of conviction.
Bucky gradually came into contact with some like-minded friends, such as Howard's son Tony Stark, a naturally lonely and intelligent man, who shared the same views as James.Tony is even smarter and more talented than Howard, and he convenes superhumans who are also fed up with this shit like world, and the counterattack of superhumans who have been marginalized over the years has begun.
The close war lasted for many years, until 15 years ago, Superman appeared - Bucky didn't know what happened to him, but when he appeared, he looked angry and tired, with absolute strength that mortals could not resist, Suppressed all wars on earth by himself.
The leaders of all the superhero organizations on the earth and the leaders of many human governments began to negotiate. The superhumans refused to return the control of the earth to humans again, because they have always brought suffering and war.
Thus, the opinions of the heads of humanity were ignored.They can't compete with superhumans who are smarter and stronger than humans.The superheroes have signed an agreement to never provoke war, maintain the safety of the earth, and maintain friendship with each other forever, and share all resources and discoveries with each other.
This is the new world James wants.
Eliminate strife and war forever, no one gets hurt anymore, whether he's normal or mutant or what the hell... all being able to live together as equals.
He was happy, he got on well with all his new friends, all the famous superheroes signed the friendship agreement, only one refused.
Steve rejected it all.
"It's not right," he said, as straight and aboveboard as ever, before all the superheroes, before Superman, Steve said, "if the price of peace on Earth is freedom, this peace in chains What is there to pursue? You are not a god, Clark, and neither are we. We are not qualified to judge the future of 60 billion people on earth. Not even Thor has ever interfered with the earth. This is a twisted peace , which goes against human nature."
Clark watched Steve silently, their eyes meeting.
"You're right, I'm not a god, and I don't want to control the future of the earth." Superman said, "But someone has to control the direction of the earth. It's been humans before, and now it's our turn. I think I ask you, Steve—whose perspective are you standing on now?"
"I'm on the side of freedom," Steve said. "What humans did was wrong before, and what we're doing now is wrong."
Clark leaned back in his seat slowly, and he watched Steve, blue eyes meeting blue eyes.
"You are a very lucky man, Mister Rogers. You have never lost someone important in your life, and you don't understand what pain it is." He said, "If your most important person is abused by human beings, tortured ——Can you still say what you said now so easily? Over the years, countless non-human beings in this world who are incompatible with the world because of their abilities have been tortured, don't you think we should give them justice?"
"You're right. I know it hurts. If it happened to someone close to me, I'd be in pain, I'd be sad, I'd seek revenge on the humans who did those bad things," Steve said, "But I won't Therefore, if you want to control all human beings, human nature is very complicated, Clark, you are close to human beings, but you are not human after all."
Superman fell silent.
"I actually like you, Steve," he said. "I can live with you not joining us, but what would you do if you left here?"
Steve stared at him, his blue eyes were extremely calm, "I will resist you."
"What a bigot," Tony murmured.
Steve looked at them, his eyes lingering on James for a long time before turning away.
"I believe that your absolute authority can temporarily wipe out war, but it cannot erase the fear in people's hearts. What you think you bring is peace, but you are actually the next extreme inequality. As long as there is fear, war is inevitable " Steve looked at Clark, and he said calmly, "This world will never be equal, if you forcefully pursue this, it is a big mistake. From now on, ordinary humans will be afraid of superhumans, And superhumans, they're going to be afraid of you, Clark."
Clark's eyes were dark, and Steve could already feel the tension in the room.In a gap of silence, he turned and jumped from the window, almost at the same time, the other superheroes moved.
Steve is too authoritative, and the heroes admire him to know how dangerous he is.They all went out to chase and intercept. Although Steve lost to everyone's joint attack, his familiarity with everyone's strategic analysis allowed him to keep escaping.
Only Superman and James were left in the conference hall.
Superman watched him silently.
"Steve is a respectable man, I don't think anyone would want to kill him, that's our loss," he said, "You should know that only you can beat him."
James was silent.
……
Just when Steve was about to escape from the city, a figure fell from the viaduct in front of him.Steve stopped walking, he raised his head and saw James standing there, his mouth was slightly pursed, his green eyes as gentle as spring water were exactly the same as the high-spirited James in military uniform in his early 20s, but Steve Husband knows he has changed.
Still, Steve was lost for a moment.
"I never thought that we would come to this point." Steve murmured, "We shouldn't be like this. We should always trust and support each other."
"We're the same way now," James said. "Sign that deal, Steve, it's good for everybody."
"I'm not going to sign any pact, whether it's against humans or against us," Steve insisted. "That's not right."
Sighing softly, James leaped off the bridge, and the roof of a car collapsed under the force of his fall.He took off his coat and moved his iron hands.
"That's the only way to fight," he said. "Unless you kill me, I won't let you go."
Steve's eyes darkened.
"You're threatening me, and you've never done that before," Steve whispered. "Well, I won't see you guys doing this unless you kill me."
James frowned, and he punched Steve in the cheek, and Steve caught the punch hard, and he fell backwards, onto the floor.
"Go for it!" Bucky snarled, "Let's fight!"
Steve sat on the ground, propped himself up, and said to himself, "It's all my fault that you've come this far... I shouldn't have helped you defeat Hydra back then, I should have brought you back to the motherland. Otherwise you would have Won't……"
James yanks Steve up, irritated, and reaches out to push Steve's shoulder.
"We should have had a fight, shouldn't we?" Bucky said. "Come on, Steve, I know you've been pissed at what I've done for a long time—now's a good time to blow it off."
"That's not going to solve the problem," Steve said quietly. "Unless you kill me, you're going to let me go."
James stared at Steve, his deep green eyes surrounded him like streams of water, and suddenly they were still young and innocent guys in their early 20s, wanting to defend their homeland and go to war together.
"You and I both know that we won't hurt each other," James said, "but you still underestimate me, Steve."
Steve froze for a moment, suddenly felt that the world was spinning, he lost control of his body, and was about to fall to the ground, Bucky reached out to hold his arm, stabilizing his body.
"You—when—" Steve murmured.
"You can't die." Steve heard James murmur in his ear, "but I can't let you ruin this... I waited 70 years for this to happen."
Steve was slowly put on the ground by Bucky, the blue sky poured into his eyes, his consciousness began to groggy, he saw the white cloaked Superman slowly falling in front of him.
"They're afraid of you, Superman..." Steve's lips moved slightly, "You're after... something that doesn't exist."
Superman crouched slowly in front of him.
"I know, I don't care anymore." Clark said in a low voice, "I have nothing. Now I just want peace on earth."
……
James freezes Steve in the cryogenic chamber.HYDRA has a well-established process for brainwashing - and so does S.H.I.E.L.D., which they use to control once lawless bad guys.James' subordinates are persuading him to brainwash Steve. Steve's top combat skills are unrivaled. With his ability, Hydra will be invincible.
But Bucky has never done this before. He knows better than anyone how strong-willed Steve is. He was able to succeed only because Steve was unprepared. If it happens again, maybe the situation will be completely different up.Unless the world is destroyed, he will never release Steve. If Steve regains consciousness, the next hunt will be much more difficult.
And—he didn't want Steve to suffer from brainwashing.
The world may be wrong, but it is the best way out for now.
"Why are you ignoring me?"
When James was in a daze, he suddenly heard a substandard Earth language.
He regained his composure and looked down at Celia.
"Huh? What did you say?" He said softly.
"Why is he frozen here?" Celia asked.
"For the peace of the earth." James stretched out his hand and gently fiddled with her hair unconsciously. "The current peace and balance of the earth is very precious and rare, and we all have to maintain this together."
"Will you let him out in the future?" Celia asked again.
"I don't know," James said honestly. "At least for now, he's alive and well—and freezing is good for his skin. Maybe in a few years, I'll have to admit he's more handsome than me."
Although James explained, Celia still felt that human behavior was more perverted than she imagined, and she would freeze her important friends. What kind of habit is this?Alternative collector?
What a group of strange earthlings, she likes it.
But I have to say that when Celia passed through the rows of cryogenic chambers, the more she watched her, the more frightened she became-human beings have almost zero sense of existence in the universe these years, and only a few people on earth have lived in the universe. life, while the other races in the universe feel contemptuous and dispensable for the earth... When did they develop to the point where they are so organized now?
Thinking about it now, their previous plan to snatch the infinite rough stone was too naive.How can the race that owns most of the gems be an idler?
"There's nothing else to see, do you want to go back?" James asked gentlemanly.
Xilia nodded, and her gaze stayed on the face of the blond man in the cryogenic cabin for a few seconds before turning away.
On the way back, the atmosphere was a little silent.Rumlow felt that he was wrong, and he was even more silent--as a 20-year old employee, Rumlow knew that every time Bucky visited Steve, he would always fall into a state of gratification and depression.Especially this time it was him who started the conversation... Rumlow tried hard to reduce his sense of existence.
"Rumlow."
When getting on the elevator, James's gentle, spring-like voice sounded like a devil to Rumlow. Rumlow kept his agent's cold face and looked at Bucky.Bucky was smiling softly.
"Aren't you bored recently?" He said, "The cryo chambers underground need to be wiped down, and this important task is entrusted to you."
Rumlow still maintained a cold face, but his Adam's apple squirmed.
"Two thousand three hundred, all of them have to be wiped?"
"Yes." James smiled, "Go."
Rumlow raised his head and wept, and had no choice but to walk out of the elevator.
The elevator doors closed, leaving only Bucky and Celia.Bucky didn't know what he was thinking, thoughtfully.He turned his head to look at Celia, who was still looking around like an ignorant and curious kitten.She is not completely ignorant, her icy blue animal-like pupils are always turning around, you can know that she is thinking of some trick or breaking the water again, but it is strangely not offensive.
James felt it, and he said, "How do you feel about Earth?"
"Which aspect?" Celia seemed to be 80.00% convinced by the earth. She said, "Your food is delicious, your people are very strong, and your city construction is also very good."
"I'm talking about our political and power structure," Bucky said. "I don't think a power structure like Earth is common in the galaxy, is it?"
"That's true." Xilia nodded in agreement, "Your lives are too tedious, most of the planets are just calling."
"Then do you think it's better like this, or as good as you?" James asked.
"What do you think?" Celia asked back.
"I don't know," Bucky said honestly, "I think it's all right, but some people don't think it's that good."
"So are you happier now than before?"
Bucky thinks about it, and he's really happy most of the time, except for the sound of Steve still freezing beneath his feet - which he doesn't want to do, but there's nothing he can do about it.He hated the feeling of powerlessness.
But he tried his best to give Steve the best. Look at Steve's freezer cabin. Compared with other people's, it's an invincible luxury version.
"If you feel happy and meaningful now, that's enough." Shelia said, "There's no need to think so much—and there are many dictatorships and powers in other planets that control the entire planet. , but their planet is still constantly at war, and ordinary people don’t live well. It’s not as good as you. I think the earth is pretty good, at least unarmed ordinary people won’t be hurt.”
And anyway, the food on Earth is really good.Celia thought.
She didn't know that what she was exposed to from the very beginning was the meals made by the best chefs on the planet. Not to mention such world-class high-end cuisine, even if it was given to her by ordinary people, it would be enough for her to grow up drinking nutrient solution. Celia was shocked.
Jarvis, the highest intelligence, continuously calculates and analyzes the culinary experience of all human beings, and adds the best food ingredients to make the super top-level food. For Silia, it is a direct leap from a bark-gnawing refugee to a planetary level. The VIP treatment is simply too exciting.
If Thanos wants to come back to pick her up now, maybe she has to think about it.
And on this side, James finally understands why Thanos kept this seemingly useless young girl on his ship for so long.Who would hate a cute, smart little girl who knows how to read words and expressions, and can always give herself great satisfaction.
——The most important thing is to be able to talk and have a sweet mouth.
James was in a good mood, they came to the top floor, James said, "Come on, by the way, I will show you the canteen of our Hydra, and let you have a taste—"
"Something more delicious than Jarvis?" Celia added expectantly.
"...Let you taste what is called plain and ordinary dishes." Bucky completed the latter words solemnly.
Celia: 0_0 At first glance, there is nothing wrong with it.
Before Xilia went to taste the civilian dishes, the time paused and moved forward five hours.
Night, New York, Black Street.
The red and gold Iron Man who opened the box in mid-air and hovered in mid-air in the form of a girl's flight, Toby Parker with a terrifying expression on his face, and Little Peter who was caught straight.
Peter knew he was miserable.For this lawless adolescent boy, his greatest fear and awe will always be his elder brother who has taken the place of the absent father.
There is a six-year age difference between the two of them. Peter is in his final year of high school and will be entering college next year, while Toby will be graduating next year.Yes, they both have the ability of spiders, the only difference is that Toby can shoot spider webs by himself, while Peter needs the assistance of instruments.
"This is not interesting at all, Mr. Stark!" Peter screamed, and the little Spider-Man, who was so cool just now, was being held by his collar by his brother, feeling extremely wronged.
Through the eyes of the steel armor, Tony, who witnessed the whole process, was in a happy mood.
"Have a nice evening, you little troublemakers," he said.
The red-gold Iron Man flew towards the street, and began to spray mist in a large amount-the mist contained a potion that had no side effects and could make the person sprayed forget the memory of the past two hours.
Peter broke the balance of the streets of criminals and the city, so Tony has to restore everything to the way it was before.Of course, he wouldn't do such a troublesome thing himself. After taking a look, he handed everything over to Jarvis.
Tony felt that he created Jarvis when he was young, even from the perspective of his life, it was very wise.If it weren't for Jarvis to help him deal with these tedious little things, he might have stayed away from the earth because of his impatience.
Iron Man closes himself at the same time Tony cuts the connection, looks up to the sky, and flies away gracefully.
The brothers watched Iron Man disappear before looking down at each other.
Peter swallowed, and after weighing the left and right, he tried to show an innocent and pitiful puppy smile.
"Brother." He said obediently, "It's all a misunderstanding."
Toby raised his eyebrows slightly. He stretched out his hand and pulled his brother to his eyes. His slender fingers brushed the black tights on Peter.
"Stealing my battle clothes is also a misunderstanding?" He said, "Could it be that this clothes ran on you while you were asleep?"
Peter didn't even hear what Toby was, so he nodded sharply, with a look of 'yes, yes, yes', and then looked at Toby expectantly, hoping that he would forgive him and forget about it.
Toby: ...
This child really doesn't fight all day, and goes to the house to expose the tiles.
