Chapter 76 What, Hydra is dead? !
Inside the Triskelion Building
Captain America Steve Rogers slowly opened his eyes.

Looking at the unfamiliar, neat ceiling in front of me, the strong smell of disinfectant penetrated into my nose. Perhaps my brain, which had been frozen for seventy years, had not yet adapted to the new environment.

To be precise, Steve Rogers' consciousness and thinking are still stuck in the past seventy years.

"I remember that I was flying a fighter plane and crashed into the Arctic Ocean with the Cosmic Cube, didn't I?"

"Wait... I'm still alive?!"

"This is where!?"

Confused thoughts were churning in my head, and I seemed to hear the noisy commentary of a baseball game on the radio.

Slowly sitting up from the hospital bed, Steve looked around in confusion, everything was in retro 70s style.

"Click——"

The door was pushed open, and Natasha walked out from behind the door, looking at Steve who was sitting beside the bed with a smile on her face.

"This is where?"

“A hospital in New York City.”

As planned, Natasha spoke the preset lines without changing her expression.
"Where the hell am I!?"

At this moment, Steve has realized that what the woman said is just a clumsy lie.

So everything here is impeccable.

However, in order to deliberately create an atmosphere, the commentary of the baseball game broadcast on the radio was unnecessary and was actually something Steve Rogers had watched in person.

This was undoubtedly a fatal flaw. Panic and confusion filled Steve's mind, because he could not tell whether he was in an enemy trap or something else.
"I'll ask you one last time, where am I?"

His eyes tightened, and his sturdy chest rose and fell with his breathing.

Seeing that Steve was becoming increasingly unwell, Natasha also realized the problem and immediately pressed the hidden button in her hand, calling two agents into the room, hoping to stabilize the situation.

This just completely ignited the fuse in Steve's heart.

With his strong physique, he immediately rushed forward, knocking down two agents and directly breaking the wall of this carefully designed "set room".

Natasha hurriedly walked out of the "set room" and shouted at Steve's back.
"Wait, Captain Rogers!"

Coming to the empty corridor, Steve Rogers looked around at a group of confused agents in SHIELD uniforms and immediately ran towards the exit.

The surrounding agents had no time to stop him, or rather, they were simply unable to stop a macho man who had been injected with super soldier serum.

But when Steve Rogers came to the busy New York Plaza Street,

But I was shocked by the dazzling array of new era products in front of me, huge electronic screens that can clearly display colors and portraits, people wearing bright and beautiful clothes, fashionable and avant-garde clothing, and exquisite cars that can travel at high speeds...

But the unfamiliar face with a sunny smile almost occupied most of the screen:

"Vought Corporation's latest Superman Kal-El peripherals are officially on sale..."

"Netflix announced that it will film a feature-length TV series "Superman" with Mr. Kal-El as the main character..."

"The greatest superhero of the new era - Superman" "Where did Iron Man go? Tony Stark has not appeared in any public occasion for more than a month. Was he kidnapped again? Will Stark Industries repeat the same mistake?"

But before Steve could come to his senses, several Cadillacs with the SHIELD logo printed on their sides blocked this section of the road.

Agents in black suits stopped New York citizens who were confused and gathered around to join in the fun.

Still wearing a patent leather coat with a black lining, Nick Fury walked out slowly with his hands behind his back and came to Steve. His eyes were full of depth, and his deliberately controlled tone was full of vicissitudes.

"Take it easy, soldier."

"I'm sorry for the failed performance just now, but our original plan was to give you a chance to accept the changes and slowly understand everything..."

Steve stared at Nick Fury with a puzzled look on his face. The dark-skinned man in front of him seemed to be the leader of this group of agents. He couldn't help but ask,
"what do you know?"

"You've been asleep for seventy years, Captain."

Nick Fury calmly said this time which was enough to make people despair.
"Welcome to the 21st century, Steve Rogers. I will be your future boss."

Steve: (⊙o⊙)!

Steve's eyes were filled with confusion and doubt. He shook his head in disbelief. In order to calm his turbulent heart, he tried to calm himself by taking deep breaths.

Steve's strange state also made Nick Fury ask with concern,
"Any questions?"

"No, nothing. Just saying I'm more worried about something else: I missed an appointment."

Although I was confused as to why my future boss would be Nigefree,
But Steve still spoke out another thing that concerned him more, so he had a premonition, but he was still very sad.

Soon, under the leadership of Nick Fury, he met Peggy Carter again after a long time.
But at this moment, she was no longer as beautiful as she used to be. Her white-haired and old appearance deeply hurt Steve's heart.

He reached out and took Peggy Carter's trembling, wrinkled hand, and spoke softly,
"Sorry, I missed your date..."

After a while, Nick Fury, who was silently waiting for the best opportunity outside the door, also waited for Steve Rogers to walk out of the intensive care unit.

Looking at his lonely back, Nick Fury reached out and patted his shoulder, speaking in an undeniably serious tone,
"It's too late to mourn for Ms. Peggy Carter. Next, we will face an even more terrifying enemy - the Decepticons."

Hearing Nick Fury's words, Steve was stunned, and his originally sad mood was shrouded in doubt.

"What [Decepticon]?"

"Isn't Hydra our enemy?"

But Nick Fury spoke confidently:
"Hydra was wiped out many years ago. They no longer exist in this world."

"What? Hydra is dead!?"

Such explosive news shocked Steve completely.
He had never imagined that during the years he had been asleep, the terrorist organization that was so powerful that if one head was chopped off, two heads would grow back just like that, had disappeared.
So much so that Steve couldn't believe it was true.

On the other side, Crossbones happened to pass by here and was about to carry out the difficult task assigned to him by his single-line boss, Sitwell. (For details, see Chapter 46 (ω))
Hearing Nick Fury's confident words, the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise, outlining a faint smile.
He made brief eye contact with the agents patrolling the area.

Then he left here...
