Originally, Coulson thought he and Hill would be imprisoned by Uehara Naraku until death. However, less than half a year had passed, and Uehara Naraku brought them out again.
Uehara Naraku still had his eyes closed, his fingers slowly tapping, and he rarely explained: "I brought you to watch a big show with me…"
"..."
Crazy!
Coulson and Hill felt like cursing.
What is this guy trying to do now that's inhumane?
"If a human has done something remarkable, they need others to help them remember it. Coincidentally, I'm just an ordinary human…"
Uehara Naraku spoke leisurely, opening his eyes. His gaze pierced through the black bulletproof glass and landed on a house: "Of course, the most important thing is, I want you to see your idol again, because this might be the last time you see him…"
"Captain Rogers?"
Coulson turned his head to look outside, his expression suddenly changed: "Uehara Naraku, what are you trying to do to the Captain again!"
That house!
It's Captain Steve Rogers' home!
Because Coulson personally handled the paperwork for Steve Rogers' property, he remembered his idol's residence very well.
"I'm here to test Captain Steve Rogers' skills…"
Uehara Naraku reached for the car's intercom and gently issued his command: "Special task teams, commence action immediately, disregard any casualties!"
"Team One, understood!"
"Team Two, understood!"
"Team Three, understood!"
From more than twenty black Humvees, seventy to eighty special task team members jumped out. Each held an assault rifle, and some even dragged grenade launchers and rocket launchers out of the vehicles.
Special Agent Coulson and Hill watched in shock as the group of task team members rushed towards Steve Rogers' house.
This kind of armed force…
Even as a super soldier, Steve Rogers might not be able to ensure survival.
"Uehara Naraku, you will be punished…"
"I look forward to that day."
Uehara Naraku shook his phone, composed an email to Natasha, and deliberately showed it to Coulson and Hill: "This is all done by the World Security Council, what does it have to do with me?"
Inside Steve Rogers' house.
They were still discussing Bucky Barnes, but Natasha and Clint's expressions were somewhat peculiar because they couldn't quite understand why Steve Rogers had told them everything about himself and Bucky...
Perhaps…
Steve Rogers is innocent?
Natasha somewhat believed in Steve Rogers' character; she even suspected that the German cipher might have been a Hydra spy's conspiracy.
This seventy-year-old WWII veteran…
Is actually a very straightforward man.
Just as Natasha contemplated how to discreetly test whether Steve Rogers knew about the German cipher, her phone received an email from Uehara Naraku.
[Just received news, the outdoor training grounds are empty, and the World Security Council has already dispatched three special task teams to Brooklyn.]
Natasha glanced at her phone with an instantly changing expression, suddenly looking up at Steve and Clint!
"Gentlemen… I think we have big trouble!"
"What?"
Steve Rogers still exhibited some confusion.
This WWII veteran was not yet clear about issues within the United States' higher-ups, nor aware that S.H.I.E.L.D. had been targeting him!
Next second!
Heavy footsteps echoed from outside!
"Fire!"
Countless bullets shot towards the house!
Rockets penetrated walls and glass instantly, and the three inside quickly dropped to the ground, evading the bullets and shellfire!
"Outside, there are three special task teams!"
Natasha looked anxious, cautiously telling Steve Rogers: "The news just came from Uehara… The World Security Council wants to arrest you!"
"Why?"
"..."
Natasha remained silent, not answering.
Clint opened his case, withdrew a fire arrow, and fired towards the outside, while trying to ease the topic: "Anyway, let's leave here first!"
"Alright…"
Natasha slowly nodded and whispered: "Steve, we are like you, already wanted by S.H.I.E.L.D.… S.H.I.E.L.D. has become a complete puppet of the World Security Council, possibly manipulated by Hydra spies."
Before Steve Rogers could say anything, the living room's walls were completely destroyed, and a dozen task team members raised their assault rifles, bullets swarming towards them!
"Go first!"
The three frantically dashed around the house!
Clint raised his hand, an arrow pierced through a rocket-launcher-carrying agent's shoulder!
However, this shot was somewhat forced, and Clint's movements were a bit slow, causing him to be hit in the shoulder and thigh by several stray bullets, instantly losing combat capability.
Steve Rogers grabbed him, carrying him while escaping through the house, calling out to Natasha: "Quick, follow me to the basement!"
As a veteran…
Or rather, as a veteran who prefers to stay out of the spotlight, Steve Rogers had built a spacious basement for training.
There's also an external passage.
At least it could allow them to leave safely.
As the external task members aiming to encircle the house cautiously checked the premises after entering, they found no trace of Steve Rogers.
