Stop!"
"This is a S.H.I.E.L.D. outpost, a restricted area. Unrelated personnel, please leave immediately!"
One of the HYDRA Agents quickly approached Tony Stark and sternly shouted at the Playboy.
"Get lost!"
"Or I'll make you get lost!"
Tony Stark had already learned from the intelligence he gathered that these people in front of him were all from HYDRA, so he naturally showed no politeness.
Clang!
"This is your final warning!"
The faces of those HYDRA Agents changed slightly upon seeing this.
Then they all raised their semi-automatic rifles and aimed them at the Playboy.
But it was easy to imagine what use these things would be in front of Tony Stark?
They were completely useless junk!
Bang bang bang!
Tony Stark was too lazy to waste words with these small fries.
With one punch each, he easily sent them flying.
Then he strode confidently towards the Base entrance.
Beep beep beep!
A piercing alarm instantly resounded throughout the entire Base.
A team of heavily armed HYDRA Agents quickly rushed out, each carrying a semi-automatic rifle, and swiftly blocked Tony Stark's path.
And they mercilessly opened Fire on Tony Stark.
Thump thump thump!
The incredibly dense gunshots immediately echoed far and wide, breaking the silence of the forest.
Clink clank!
The sound of metal striking also rang out at the same time, with sparks constantly splashing from Tony Stark's Iron Man Armor.
Who knows how many bullets hit it.
But unfortunately, how could the Destroyer Armor be penetrated by ordinary bullets?
That wave of frantic firing by the HYDRA Agents was just to add some dazzling special effects and background music to Tony Stark's invasion.
Hiss… Bang!
Bang bang bang!
The Playboy remained unhurried, calmly stepping forward amidst the hail of bullets.
Either with his fists or his Repulsor Rays, each hit was without exception.
He knocked down all the HYDRA Agents who tried to stop him.
It only took a few minutes, from start to finish.
The entire scene, apart from Tony Stark, had no one left standing.
All the HYDRA Agents who had tried to block the Playboy lay scattered on the ground.
They were in a truly sorry state.
Without even glancing at the dog-like HYDRA Agents lying on the ground, Tony Stark advanced without further hindrance, heading straight to the Base entrance.
Hiss!
He raised his arm, and a laser beam shot out, cutting through the thick steel plate of the Base gate.
…
"Shit!"
Base Command Center.
The HYDRA Commander, who had seen everything on the monitoring screen, couldn't help but curse under his breath.
How did the Destroyer get here!
Why did the Destroyer suddenly come knocking?
The HYDRA Commander was truly dumbfounded.
But it was clearly not the time to dwell on these questions. He knew all too well what level of a god the Destroyer was; this Base simply couldn't stop him.
The HYDRA Agents lying all over the ground outside the Base were the best example.
Even if there were still some defensive forces inside the Base, they would be like paper in front of the Destroyer, completely unable to withstand a single blow.
The only hope, perhaps, was the Winter Soldier.
Even with the Winter Soldier, the HYDRA Commander didn't dare to hold too much hope.
"All armed personnel, immediately assemble at Gate A3."
"When the Destroyer breaks in, I want you to do your best to hold him back."
"You few, go wake up the Winter Soldier, quickly!"
"The rest of you, immediately destroy all data, now!"
After issuing a series of commands, the HYDRA Commander finally picked up a special phone.
He dialed a top-secret line.
"Officer, we have a problem."
"The Destroyer has suddenly invaded. I've already sent someone to wake the Winter Soldier."
"But I'm not confident we can stop the Destroyer."
"No, he's already broken in!"
The HYDRA Commander's face changed slightly.
He had clearly seen on the surveillance that Iron Man had already cut a closed loop in the Base gate.
The Destroyer was about to break in!
Bang!
The HYDRA Commander was right.
After completing the cut, Tony Stark, wearing his Iron Man Armor, didn't hesitate. He raised his hand and delivered a fierce punch.
Right in the center of the closed loop.
With a loud bang, the cut-out piece of metal was instantly sent flying.
A large hole was revealed in front of Tony Stark.
The Playboy didn't hesitate, bending down and crawling inside.
Thump thump thump!
Thump thump thump!
He had just entered, his body hadn't even steadied, when another hail of bullets poured down.
The long corridor was already filled with a group of heavily armed HYDRA Agents.
Tony Stark merely glanced indifferently at those obstructive guys, without any unnecessary words, and confidently strode forward.
Bang bang bang!
After a dazzling display of moves.
All the HYDRA Agents fell to the ground, none able to stand up again.
The Playboy continued to walk confidently down the corridor.
Whoosh!
Bang!
He had just exited the corridor when a figure suddenly darted out from the side, holding a thick iron rod from who knows where.
He swung the rod hard, striking Tony Stark's Iron Man Armor.
The Playboy was caught off guard and was actually knocked backward by the blow.
It must be said that the force of that blow was truly astonishingly powerful.
And who could possess such astonishing power was, of course, beyond doubt.
Indeed.
After getting up from the ground.
A guy with shoulder-length hair and a metal arm appeared in front of the Playboy's eyes.
It was none other than Tony Stark's target for this trip, the Winter Soldier!
After knocking Tony Stark down with one blow, the Winter Soldier raised the grenade launcher in his hand and pulled the trigger on Tony Stark.
A grenade immediately shot towards the Playboy.
However, under the control of an artificial intelligence like Jarvis, dodging grenade fire was very easy for Tony Stark.
He calmly shifted his body slightly, and the grenade flew past Iron Man, striking the wall beside him.
Boom!
Amidst a violent explosion.
The wall was instantly blown open, with debris scattering and dust rising.
However, neither the debris nor the dust was anything to Tony Stark.
He stood proudly amidst the wreckage, raising his hand towards the Winter Soldier.
Hiss… Bang!
A Repulsor Ray shot directly at the Winter Soldier.
But the Winter Soldier was as agile as a leopard.
The moment Tony Stark raised his hand, he sharply dodged, darting to the side.
He smoothly evaded Tony Stark's attack.
Tony Stark immediately piloted his Iron Man Armor into the air, quickly flying in front of the Winter Soldier.
He threw a fierce punch at the Winter Soldier.
But the Winter Soldier swiftly extended his metal arm and fiercely swung his palm to meet it.
Clang!
With a crisp metallic sound, Tony Stark's Iron Man arm actually stopped in mid-air.
Because the Winter Soldier's metal left hand had gripped Tony Stark's Iron Man arm.
Click click click!
Not only that.
With a forceful squeeze, his metal left hand actually deformed Tony Stark's Iron Man arm!
What the hell.
The diary really wasn't lying; the Winter Soldier could actually deform his Iron Man Armor with his bare hands!
Tony Stark's eyes widened slightly. This Winter Soldier truly wasn't to be underestimated; he was indeed very strong.
No wonder he could single-handedly fight so many Avengers in the Anti-Terrorism Building.
But this couldn't change anything for the Playboy.
His decision to kill the Winter Soldier remained firm.
"You killed my parents!"
"I'll make you pay the price!"
Tony Stark stared intently at the face in front of him, letting out a murderous cold snort.
"I don't know who you're talking about."
The Winter Soldier responded as coldly as a machine, without the slightest emotional fluctuation.
This made Tony Stark even angrier.
This guy truly deserved to die!
The Playboy no longer hesitated, immediately raising his other arm, from which a miniature missile suddenly popped out.
He aimed it directly at the Winter Soldier's face.
However, just as Tony Stark was about to fire, the Winter Soldier's other hand moved like lightning, grabbing the Playboy's wrist fiercely.
A pull, a yank.
Whoosh!
The missile was indeed fired, but its direction had severely deviated.
It didn't hit the Winter Soldier at all, but flew to the side, striking the wall.
Rumble!
Amidst a violent tremor, the surrounding Base began to collapse.
Countless huge rocks rolled down, accompanied by earthquake-like vibrations, and terrifying Impact waves also surged forth.
Tony Stark immediately piloted his Iron Man Armor and flew out.
The Winter Soldier also pushed his speed to the limit, swiftly dodging and advancing through the collapsing structure.
Though dangerous, he rushed out completely unharmed.
After all, he was a Super Soldier comparable to Captain America; how could he not handle such a "small scene"?
However, the Winter Soldier had just rushed out, and before he even had a chance to catch his breath, he suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes.
That cool iron lump had flown back!
The Winter Soldier's gaze sharpened, he took a deep breath, and swiftly rushed forward, engaging Tony Stark in a brawl.
Clink clank!
Bang bang bang!
As figures flashed, Tony Stark and the Winter Soldier battled back and forth.
For some unknown reason, even though his Iron Man Armor was equipped with so many weapons, Tony Stark seemed to really enjoy close-quarters combat.
But thankfully, the Iron Man Armor truly lived up to its reputation as a cheat beyond its time; even close-quarters combat was not something ordinary people could withstand.
Not even the Winter Soldier.
Although the Winter Soldier could initially rely on his superhuman physique to go head-to-head with the Destroyer Armor, after a while, he began to fall behind.
He was completely suppressed by Tony Stark, unable to catch his breath.
"Sir, you need to speed up."
"A rapid response unit is on its way."
In the midst of the fierce battle, Tony Stark inside his Iron Man Armor suddenly received a reminder from Jarvis.
The Playboy's heart stirred, and he immediately understood.
His attacks on the Winter Soldier began to intensify.
Bang!
In the midst of the fierce battle, the Winter Soldier once again reached out and grabbed Tony Stark's Iron Man arm.
However, Tony Stark did not try to break free from the Winter Soldier this time. Instead, he extended his other hand and grabbed the Winter Soldier's neck.
The Winter Soldier gritted his teeth and used his remaining hand to grab the Playboy's "chokehold hand."
He exerted force, trying to pry that hand open.
Click click!
But just as the two were locked in a stalemate, several gun barrels suddenly emerged from the shoulder of the Playboy's Iron Man Armor.
"Oh no!"
The Winter Soldier immediately noticed this, and his face suddenly changed.
Thump thump!
But now he was face-to-face and restrained by Tony Stark, completely unable to make any effective response.
A bullet flew out and went straight into the Winter Soldier's forehead.
The Winter Soldier's body violently shook, and his eyes suddenly widened.
And then.
His entire body began to lose strength and slumped down.
Tony Stark on the opposite side released his grip.
The Winter Soldier lay on the ground like a pile of mud, motionless.
"Father, Mother, I've avenged you!"
Standing there, looking down at the Winter Soldier's corpse lying before him.
The stone that had always weighed on the Playboy's heart was finally lifted.
He immediately felt much lighter.
After looking up, the expression on Tony Stark's face beneath his mask returned to one of coldness.
He turned his head, scanning and investigating the surrounding environment, then strode purposefully forward.
He walked through the wreckage, through various corridors, and casually dealt with other HYDRA Agents.
Finally.
The Playboy's figure appeared in the control center where the HYDRA Commander was located.
Bang bang bang!
As soon as he appeared, the Commander immediately picked up a weapon and pulled the trigger on Tony Stark.
But it only scratched the Playboy.
Bang!
The Playboy calmly raised his hand, and a Repulsor Ray blasted the Commander away.
It proved that not all HYDRA members were as spineless as Baron Strucker.
There were also tough guys willing to die for HYDRA.
However, at this moment, a tough guy encountering a cheat like Tony Stark wouldn't make any difference.
After dealing with the immediate minor trouble, Tony Stark began to access the Base's system.
He attempted to gather all the data within the Base.
However, to his regret, he then discovered that everything had already been destroyed by HYDRA.
Not only the data within the system, but even other physical media, nothing was left.
