Chapter 95 Realizing Value

Prok was originally an insignificant country in the Middle East. Its palm-sized area is not even as large as the smallest state in the United States, and its population is less than two million.

However, it is such a small country, with the evolution of the situation in the Middle East in recent years, its special status as a transportation hub has suddenly begun to attract international attention. Several major countries have begun to establish diplomatic relations with it, and the US government has directly participated in the internal struggle of its country in some indirect ways, secretly supporting one of the ruling parties to come to power.

Luka Cromwell is the current president of Pluck and the target of the US government's secret support in his country's internal struggle. The reason for secret support is that although Cromwell is consistent with the United States in many interests of his rule, he is an absolute tyrant in handling national internal affairs and his attitude towards the people.

As we all know, the "Beacon Kingdom" has always advocated that human rights are above everything else, and this person in power who despises human rights and ignores the people will obviously not be recognized by the American people. Therefore, the government still has to condemn Cromwell's various actions on the surface, and can only provide support to him through some intermediate parties in private.

A day ago, Luca Cromwell's private plane landed at the airport in Washington. He was invited to discuss diplomatic matters and met by the president in person.

This person is the target of the Winter Soldier this time.

Due to the various bad behaviors of this person after he came to power, Sergeant Barnes didn't mind shooting this guy's forehead at all, but this was not actually the reason why this person attracted the attention of Tianjian. The reason why he was assigned to this task was that the opposing party leader of the party represented by Cromwell happened to be a senior figure in Tianjian.

If the Winter Soldier took advantage of Cromwell's trip to the United States to solve him, his party would have been greatly damaged, and it would be difficult for him to take over the next person with equal abilities and means to take over. By then, the possibility of his opposing party coming to power is extremely high, and the senior executive of Tianjian is very likely to become Prok's new president.

Although the Pluck country is not big, it now has a considerable influence in that area. If you can grasp the position of president of the country, it will undoubtedly be of great benefit to the expansion of the Tianjian power.

At 7 o'clock tonight, Cromwell will attend a dinner event with multiple government leaders. Bucky found out the building structure of the venue in advance, got Cromwell's schedule and various security details, and selected the best sniper highland in advance.

At nine o'clock, the banquet ended, and Cromwell would shake hands with other celebrities at the door and say goodbye, and perhaps stop for a while and say some polite words. That was Bucky's chance. He had only one shot, and he never missed it.

Bucky set up his gun at the position he chose and crouched on the edge of the rooftop. He pointed at the direction of the exit of the venue and waited patiently, just like a hunter waiting for his prey to step into a trap.

Everything was as planned in advance. After the banquet, the upper class left the venue one after another. Bucky locked his iconic figure from the scope at a glance. He was holding a middle-aged beer belly, half-bald, and thick lips like a freshly served steak.

The guy was not aware of his dangerous situation at all. He was enthusiastic about embracing a White House congressman in a suit. The Winter Soldier's accuracy locked him, his fingers were already on the trigger, and he was ready to shoot him in the head as soon as he separated from the congressman.

The low whistling sound of breaking through the air came almost imperceptibly.

Bucky was shocked and almost thoughtlessly gave way to the side. Something fast hit the sniper rifle in his hand, and dropped the gun from his hand to the side. The fast hitched the wall on his side, and turned his head unscientifically and turned back along the way, returning to his master's hand.

It was a shield, a round shield, a unique side in the world.

He subconsciously turned around and saw his best friend flying towards him in uniform, wearing a cross-section helmet, holding a shield.

Captain America.

The mission description mentioned that SHIELD may also secretly protect the foreign president, but no one has ever mentioned that Captain America may also participate in the mission.

Bucky was wearing a mask and goggles, and Rogers obviously failed to recognize him. In addition, considering that Bucky was a dead person whose bones had rotted for seventy years, he was unlikely to guess who the person in front of him was.

Bucky was stunned for a moment, but his good friend did not. It was not until the edge of the round shield was hitting the door sharply that he woke up like a dream and hurriedly avoided it. The vibrating shield "kneeled" to shatter the brick wall behind him, and the gravel fell to the street below.

Bucky quickly adjusted. He was on the way to the mission now, and no one or anything happened could stop him from completing the mission, even Steve.

He lowered his body and a powerful sweeping leg launched a counterattack towards the captain's lower plate. The captain avoided it and raised his shield to hit his shoulder.

Bucky raised his left arm, and the alloy palm steadily held the vibrating shield. The shield palms intersected and made a crisp sound. He opened his right hand, and a cold light flashed. A pitch-black double-edged half-toothed fighting dagger appeared on his palm. The tip of the knife turned and cut out a sharp black trajectory to attack the captain Zuo Xie. Rogers' shield was sealed horizontally, and the sharp dagger immediately hit the indestructible vibrating shield.

Bucky changed his moves quickly, attacking five consecutive strikes, and at the same time he changed five different ways. He used his swords quickly and fiercely, and was very varied. But Rogers' vibrating shield was too advantageous. He only needed to turn the shield lightly, and his whole body was almost sealed by the invincible shield. The Winter Soldier's exquisite and beautiful five consecutive swords were only chopped on this alloy shield, and he didn't even scratch the paint at all.

Bucky felt a little impatient. Captain America was of the same physical fitness as him, and his fighting skills were hard to tell the difference. Even if the two of them had to win or lose, it might be dozens or hundreds of moves later. But his mission could not be so long. In a moment, Cromwell would end his greetings and sit in his car and leave. Next time, there would be no such good opportunity.

He was confused and his moves were a little mechanically stagnant. Rogers's eyes were sharp and he grabbed his flaw at a glance. He held the shield in his left hand and cut his right arm straight into the line, pressing him to the door. But Bucky reacted in a shocking manner and hurriedly leaned back and cut his arm without thinking. The captain shrank his hand to avoid it, but eventually pulled his mask off.

The two of them intersected their eyes, and suddenly stopped fighting strangely, and stayed there blankly.

"...Bucky?" Rogers asked uncertainly, his eyes filled with shock and confusion.

Bucky didn't answer, and didn't know how to answer. The two kept silent for two seconds.

Cromwell had finished the greetings. His driver had already driven the car to the door, and two bodyguards were pressing against each other, escorting him towards the door.

What happened next happened in a blink of an eye.

Bucky's dagger came out sharply, like a black snake, and he stepped directly into Rogers's face. Rogers raised the shield in a conditioned manner. Before he could use all his tricks, he immediately used his sword to pick up the sniper rifle, jumped up, and stepped on the shield raised by Rogers with one foot, and jumped high under the powerful jumping force.

He was in mid-air, flipped his body, hanging downwards in the air and fell downwards. He raised his gun and aimed, locking Cromwell in his scope 1,500 meters along the way while his body was hanging upside down.

Only one shot.

And he never missed it.

The gunshots, the fire flashes, and the bullets come out of the borehole. A blood flower explodes on the president's chest in the same second, and the bright red blood dyes the white shirt.

The bodyguards rushed up in panic, the crowd fell into panic, the alarm was sounded, and the agents present pulled out their guns.

The Winter Soldier stretched out his robotic arm and grabbed the air conditioner plug-in of a certain household during the fall. But the plug-in was obviously not enough to withstand his downward momentum. It was overwhelmed and suddenly broke, but at least it played a buffering role. Bucky landed on his back and fell heavily on the balcony of a certain household.

Fortunately, no one seems to be at home.

Rogers stood on the roof, looking at him blankly, but seemed to have no intention of continuing to chase him.

"Hey, Steve." Bucky smiled at him, "It looks like you don't have to put newspapers in your shoes now."

"Really... it's you?" Rogers didn't look like he was a little happy, "But why?"

"I know what things look like, but they aren't actually what you think." Bucky looked up at him. "I've done a lot of things that I can't face. Although it wasn't voluntary, it still couldn't change the fact that I did."

"Winter Soldier." Rogers said the word, "Asiashi told me this story. That super killer... has always been you, right?"

Bucky nodded.

"But it's different now," he said. "I met someone, someone who can give me goals and enable me to realize my meaning. Only when doing these things can I truly feel that I have valued and can make up for some mistakes."

"You're a killer, Bucky. What you're doing is taking human life."

Bucky smiled.

“We are still on the same side, Steve,” he said, “and will be.”

After saying that, he no longer delayed. He stepped on the railing with one foot and jumped to the roof opposite with force. He ran towards the moonlight and disappeared on the roof for a moment.
