"Very good, the fish has finally taken the bait!" Mark smiled as he looked at the text message from Nick Fury on his phone.
He had long guessed that those guys would definitely not be able to hold back, and this plan could not be delayed any further.
With the Avengers, this team that is not directly under the jurisdiction of SHIELD continues to develop, which is definitely what they don't want to see.
Since they can't find a breakthrough from them, they will naturally choose to start from Nick Fury.
As long as they succeed, they should turn around and find a way to rely on the power of SHIELD to control them.
"Banner, go to the laboratory and call Tony, we'll go to San Francisco now!"
"Okay, I'll go right away!"
An hour later, Mark and others sat on a flight to San Francisco.
However, they took off secretly this time and did not choose to take Tony's private plane.
It's not possible to alert the enemy for the time being, so sometimes it's good to be low-key.
"Mark, are you sure that the purpose of that group is to assassinate Nick Fury? And Bullock is really a member of Hydra? Natasha still couldn't believe it.
When he was working at SHIELD before, he had worked with Bullock many times.
In her eyes, Bullock is an absolutely professional agent, and he has a very good relationship with Director Nick Fury.
Now suddenly telling her that Bullock is the leader of Hydra's infiltration personnel in SHIELD, she really finds it difficult to accept.
'I'm sorry Natasha, this is true.' Mark shook his head helplessly. Now no matter who is Hydra in SHIELD, he won't feel strange.
Even if Nick Fury jumps out one day and says that he is also a member of Hydra, he won't have any waves in his heart, although according to the known situation, this is absolutely impossible.
"But Brock obviously left SHIELD of his own accord and went to the Security Council. This... Natasha was willing to believe Mark, but she still couldn't figure it out.
Mark didn't continue to explain. Natasha might as well ask Brock about this problem in person later.
After arriving in San Francisco, Mark and his team chose to land at a civilian airport with a large passenger flow.
Although they could have landed at a more convenient military and civilian airport, or a military airport, thanks to Tony's relationship.
But Hydra's influence is spread all over the world, and the more places there are, the easier it is to place spies.
At this time, on the other side, Nick Fury, with a team of agents, also arrived in San Francisco on a SHIELD spacecraft.
'Pierce, where are your people now?" Nick Fury asked.
Pierce picked up the map he was looking at, which could only be one of the mountains, and said: "I have asked them to wait near the abandoned factory under this mountain.
"According to the intelligence, it is likely that they are in this factory or somewhere in the mountain. "
Nick Fury nodded and did not ask any more questions. He already had a rough idea of the whole thing in his mind.
Because Pierce was his best friend, he was always looking for the possibility that Pierce was not Hydra.
But along the way, Pierce's various behaviors were so suspicious. It can even be said that from the beginning, he made him realize that something was wrong.
But if it weren't for Mark's reminder, I'm afraid even he would have chosen to trust Pierce preconceivedly.
"Coulson, please continue to summarize the specific information before landing!" Nick Fury handed the information in his hand to Coulson, and he talked to Pierce about life outside the mission.
Among the agents he brought this time, the one he trusted the most so far was Coulson.
He was a little skeptical about the other agents. After all, when he met Pierce before, except for Coulson, everyone else seemed very calm.
As the spaceship slowly landed, Coulson checked the weapons in his hands and was ready.
The landing site they chose was not at the airport, but in an uninhabited area closest to the target location.
Pierce led the team and walked to the location marked on the map, which was not far from the landing location.
"Nick, they are in that abandoned granary. We'd better go over and hand over first, and then continue the operation." Pierce said.
"I'll listen to you this time. "Nick Fury naturally wouldn't say much now, and he wasn't afraid to follow them.
After all, the GPS positioning on his mobile phone was specially processed by Tony, with a high degree of confidentiality, and there would be a signal even in remote areas.
So he was naturally relieved to follow them. He was simply curious about what tricks this guy Pierce could do.
"We're here, right inside!"
Half an hour later, everyone arrived at a long-abandoned granary, and a man was waiting at the door.
"Minister Pierce, Director Nick Fury, we have been waiting for you for a long time!" The man said politely and took the initiative to open the door of the granary for them.
However, when the door was opened, what greeted them was not the survey team arranged by the Security Council, but a team fully armed to the teeth.
They were wearing black armor, and the man standing in the front was Crossbones who had arrived in San Francisco in advance to wait.
"Pierce, you did a good job. I didn't expect you to be able to trick our dear Director Nick Fury here. "Crossbones tightened his gun and pointed it at Nick Fury's head.
Agents like Coulson also pulled out their weapons, but they acted very dramatically.
Except for Coulson's gun, which was aimed at the enemy, the other agents also took off their disguises and aimed at Nick Fury and Coulson.
Nick Fury's mouth twitched. He saw that there was something wrong with this group of agents, but he didn't expect that except for Coulson, they were all Hydra undercovers.
"Nick, I'm really sorry, but I think you should understand that this is what we have to do." Pierce looked at his old friend. At this point, he didn't need to pretend anymore.
Nick Fury remained calm, but couldn't help but sighed: "Pierce, what I don't want to do most is to suspect you, because I really regard you as my lifelong friend. "
Nick Fury's voice was inevitably a little sad, and Coulson was confused. Why did your former comrade-in-arms, your closest colleague, point a gun at him?
"Jent! Andil! What's wrong with you? Why are you pointing your gun at me? You should point it at them, right? Coulson shouted in confusion.
However, in the face of his questioning, those friends who used to joke around with him after get off work all chose to remain silent.
Crossbones looked at this scene and couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, dear Director Nick Fury, tell your agent quickly, it seems that he still doesn't understand the situation at all!"
