Chapter 409

The fire phoenix is burning!

Hydra is perishing.

The S. H. I. E. L. D. agents who were fighting fiercely with the Hydra agents on the ground stopped one after another, stood still, and looked up, watching the Hydra agents they were fighting with throw themselves into the burning fire phoenix flames one after another and turn into ashes.

At the same time—

The flames of the fire phoenix were becoming more and more brilliant.

Soon.

The fire phoenix disappeared.

Hawk also disappeared.

Thud!

Hawk, after burning all the Hydra agents to ashes, returned to the conference room on the top floor of the S. H. I. E. L. D. headquarters, went straight to Alexander Pierce, grabbed Alexander Pierce's neck, and then looked at Natasha.

"I've helped you with the hardest part. You don't need my help for the cleanup, right?"

"Of course."

Natasha reacted and nodded.

Hawk smiled slightly, stopped talking, and then looked at Alexander Pierce again, his eyes becoming cold.

The next second!

He disappeared with Alexander Pierce from the sight of Natasha and the other three federal councilors.

At the same time.

Sharon's voice sounded in the earpiece with suppressed excitement.

"Insight command center control completed, control of the No. 2 Insight Helicarrier has been obtained."

"No. 3 is also controlled."

Tony Stark's voice also sounded at this time: "Jarvis, transfer control over."

Soon.

Sharon looked at another Insight Helicarrier that had come online, and her eyes lit up: "No. 3 Insight Helicarrier online."

There were three Insight Helicarriers in total.

Hawk destroyed the No. 1 carrier, so weren't there two Insight Helicarriers left?

As for the No. 1 carrier...

"No. 1 carrier crashed into the Potomac River, Agent 35 is leading a team to the scene."

"Received."

"Rat-tat-tat!"

Accompanied by the excited voices of S. H. I. E. L. D. agents regaining control of S. H. I. E. L. D. constantly sounding in the communication channel, a Quinjet also flew across the sky at this moment, then landed vertically on the top helipad of the S. H. I. E. L. D. Triskelion.

The next second.

Maria Hill, wearing a S. H. I. E. L. D. combat uniform, walked out of the fighter plane, glanced at Iron Man, who had flown from the No. 3 carrier and landed, nodded to say hello, and then walked into the top-floor conference room with Iron Man.

Iron Man's mask opened, Tony glanced at the conference room curiously, and then his gaze fell on Natasha.

"Where is Hawk?"

"Just left."

Natasha shrugged, then looked at Maria Hill, who walked in: "Commander."

"Thank you for your hard work." Maria Hill nodded to Natasha, then looked at the three Security Council members in the conference room and handed the tablet in her hand to them: "The highest order of the Security Council, urgently promote me to S. H. I. E. L. D. Director."

She already knew when Alexander Pierce was causing chaos in S. H. I. E. L. D.

But...

Alexander Pierce ordered her to stay in Wakanda, Africa, as a combat commander for safety reasons.

Fortunately, the New York S. H. I. E. L. D. was recovered, and Victoria Hand contacted her, allowing her to urgently contact the five permanent members through the Security Council joint forces stationed in Wakanda, and while rushing home, wait for the instructions of the five permanent members.

Until she flew back to the federal territory, the Eastern and Moscow permanent members received the emergency intelligence reports from their respective councilors, and then unanimously passed the promotion of Maria Hill to S. H. I. E. L. D. Director, fully responsible for this Hydra chaos incident.

The three councilors already knew this news, but after glancing at the tablet Hill handed over, they withdrew their gaze, left this place to Maria Hill, and then turned and walked outside.

S. H. I. E. L. D. has S. H. I. E. L. D.'s affairs to deal with.

They also have their own, at least they have to rush back to the Security Council and inform their capitals of their experiences.

Soon.

Lei Shen also walked in from outside, holding Mjolnir.

"Where is Hawk?"

"Just left."

Natasha looked at Lei Shen, who had entered, shrugged again, and then was slightly stunned, feeling that she had just said this not long ago.

Tony, on the side, looked at Lei Shen: "Jarvis is detecting Hawk's energy signal, but the energy signal seems to have disappeared."

Lei Shen frowned and said: "Back to New York City?"

Natasha shook her head: "No."

Commander Hand and a team of S. H. I. E. L. D. agents were still on Palm Street.

They had made up their minds that they would leave whenever Hawk returned. In short, one sentence.

Don't give Hydra any chance to take advantage.

Where did Hawk go?

He actually didn't go anywhere, and didn't even leave Washington D. C. After taking Alexander Pierce away from the S. H. I. E. L. D. Triskelion.

The next second.

Hawk took Alexander Pierce back to his detached villa located in Rock Creek Park, hidden in a dense forest.

"Thud!"

"Cough, cough, cough."

After being thrown down by Hawk, Alexander Pierce, who had almost been suffocated, subconsciously held his neck and coughed constantly.

Hawk scanned every corner of the villa with his sixth sense, then put his hands in his pockets and looked at Alexander Pierce, who was coughing and climbing up from the ground.

Alexander Pierce, who had been high-spirited, now showed fatigue and old age on his old face.

Lost.

Completely lost.

However...

Alexander Pierce maintained the last dignity of a Hydra leader. After climbing up from the ground, he took a deep breath, and after recovering, looked at Hawk.

"If I tell you that I never thought about attacking you, would you believe it?"

"Haha."

Hawk heard Pierce's words, first laughed, but then restrained the smile on his face and looked at Pierce.

"I believe it, but that doesn't change anything. The fact is, you did attack. I always thought you were a smart person, Pierce. I'm not interested in your Hydra, and I don't even care if you can rule the Earth this time."

He wasn't lying.

Throughout Hydra, he always felt that Alexander Pierce was the smartest one.

After all, Anna was Alexander Pierce's person.

And his relationship with Anna was really good. From a certain point of view, if Alexander Pierce's strategy wasn't to befriend him, then he and Anna wouldn't have become friends.

This is also why he didn't suspect Alexander Pierce was lying when he was in Wakanda at the time.

After all, there was no reason for it.

Alexander Pierce is not a fool. His combat power is placed there. Offending him means that Hydra's dream of hegemony will never be realized.

As a result...

Pierce really did it.

This doesn't fit Pierce's character at all, unless there is a possibility that Pierce felt that hiding it from him was less costly than telling him.

Hawk's thoughts turned, thinking of his friend Anna, and looked at Alexander Pierce.

"Where is Anna?"

"Dead."

Alexander smiled bitterly.

Hawk chuckled, looking at Alexander Pierce, who gave the same answer as at the S. H. I. E. L. D. headquarters Triskelion: "Anna is not dead, I am very sure. Do you know why I am so sure?"

Alexander looked at Hawk.

But...

Hawk didn't mean to explain to Alexander, and didn't even have this thought, just looked at Alexander thoughtfully.

"Anna is clearly not dead, but you insist on saying she is dead."

"Then that only explains one problem."

"Either Anna is imprisoned now, or she is in a dying state."

"But this is not important. What is important is that compared to letting me see Anna, you would rather have me believe Anna is dead."

"So..."

"You are hiding something from me, Pierce."

"Why?"

"I was thinking about this question when I came, but I'm too lazy to think about it now."

"No need."

"So—"

When he said this, Hawk's gaze became extremely cold, looking at Alexander Pierce in front of him: "I'll give you one last chance, for the sake of Anna and me being friends, either you tell me now, or you'd better never tell me."

He really wanted to know the reason why the smart Pierce did such a stupid thing to him.

Really.

But...

Pierce wouldn't say, and he was too lazy to ask again.

No need.

Asking is just one sentence.

He is invincible in the world, and he doesn't have the mood or interest to play guessing games with this group of people.

So.

"You choose, Pierce."

"Haha."

Pierce heard this, and the bitter smile on his face became even stronger: "If I don't say it, you might give me a decent ending for Anna's sake, but if I say it, I'm afraid I won't even have decency."

Zola's clone Hawk plan is one thing.

But that girl Strucker made in Sokovia...

He really can't say.

But this is not because he doesn't want to say it, but because it's still that sentence.

He is Hydra.

Hydra, which grows two heads when one is cut off.

Although he will die now.
