I sell devil fruit in the United States

Triple Wing Building.

Top floor office.

Alexander Pierce was wearing reading glasses and flipping through a document in his hand.

His attitude was so focused and serious, he looked like a scholar.

Opposite Alexander Pierce, a gentle-looking guy who also wore glasses, a suit and leather shoes stood as motionless as a javelin.

Even his breathing was adjusted to be very gentle and long, so as not to disturb his top officer.

This man's name is Marco, and he is apparently an executive of S.H.I.E.L.D., but of course, he is actually from Hydra.

Whoa!

Almost five minutes later, Alexander Pierce closed the document in his hand.

He raised his head and took off his reading glasses, and his whole aura suddenly changed.

At this moment, he no longer looked like the mild-mannered scholar before, but a high-ranking person with an amazing aura that made people look up to him subconsciously.

"OK, Marco, tell me the results of your investigation."

Alexander Pierce glanced at Marco and gave instructions casually.

"Yes, sir!"

Marco responded, and then reported to Alexander Pierce honestly.

"According to our investigation, it has been confirmed that Devil Fruits are real. The few mutants that Nick Fury once thought were mutants have been confirmed to be not mutants, but people with Devil Fruit abilities."

"In addition, Black Widow Natasha Romanoff has purchased a Devil Fruit. According to intelligence, she purchased a Devil Fruit called the 'Mimic Fruit'."

"The ability is similar to the transformation ability of Mystique in the X-Men. She can transform into anyone's appearance."

"In other words, Black Widow can perfectly disguise herself as anyone without being noticed by us?"

Alexander Pierce couldn't help but raise his eyebrows.

"Yes, sir!" Marco nodded heavily.

"Then Agent, if you are the Black Widow in disguise, I can't tell, right?"

Alexander Pierce's eyes suddenly became sharper.

"Sir, I'm not Black Widow, I'm Marco! Long live Hydra!"

Marco immediately clenched his fists with both hands at Alexander Pierce and expressed his sincerity to Alexander Pierce with the unique military salute of Hydra.

Alexander Pierce nodded, and all the doubts in his heart were eliminated.

Even if Black Widow's ability can perfectly imitate Marco, it is impossible for the other party to know Marco's Hydra identity.

only.

Black Widow's ability is still too troublesome, and the truly flawless disguise is really hard to detect.

It seems that in the future, Hydra people will have to be more vigilant.

"Long live the Hydra!"

Alexander Pierce also responded to the other party, and then continued to order, "Go on."

"In addition to Black Widow, Nick Fury also purchased a Devil Fruit, but we did not find out what Devil Fruit he purchased."

"Then there is Hawkeye Barton Clint. He was urgently recalled from Chicago by Coulson. During this period, Nick Fury also mobilized a batch of gold. There is a high possibility that Barton also purchased Devil Fruits."

"But we have no way of knowing exactly what Devil Fruit Barton purchased."

"Go find out as soon as possible!"

Alexander Pierce's face began to look a little solemn, and he immediately gave instructions to Marco.

Nick Fury and Hawkeye Barton are both supernatural beings, and what's even worse is that they don't even know what the other's superpowers are.

This is undoubtedly a problem.

It's okay to say that Hawkeye Barton and so on, no matter how strong the opponent is, he is just a pawn and is nothing to worry about, but Nick Fury is different.

It can be said that Nick Fury was promoted by Alexander Pierce. Alexander Pierce knew very well how capable he was.

"Yes, sir!"

Marco immediately responded in a deep voice.

"By the way, there is one more thing that I think needs your attention, sir."

At this time, Marco took out a piece of information that he had prepared a long time ago and placed it in front of Alexander Pierce.

Alexander Pierce only glanced at it before showing a look of confusion: "Murder?"

When did someone of his level need to be alerted to something as insignificant as a murder?

Alexander Pierce knew immediately that this murder must not be simple.

"Nick Fury has also paid attention to this case. According to the information we have, this murder case should involve a person with extraordinary abilities."

Marco answered immediately.

That's it!

Alexander Pierce felt enlightened and suddenly understood what Marco meant.

People with extraordinary abilities are not something ordinary agents can deal with.

"You can go ahead and investigate. If this case really involves someone with extraordinary abilities, I want you to bring them over."

"If necessary, I will send the Winter Soldier to assist you."

Alexander Pierce immediately made his commitment to Marco.

And this is also the purpose of Marco reporting this matter to Alexander Pierce.

After all, if this case really involves people with extraordinary abilities, and they need to be arrested, it is very likely that the Winter Soldier will need to be dispatched.

The Winter Soldier, on the other hand, only listens to Commander Pierce's orders.

"Anything else?"

Alexander Pierce glanced at Marco again and asked in a deep voice.

"There is nothing else, sir. Does the sir have any other instructions?"

Marco asked Alexander Pierce for his opinion.

"Nick Fury and the others have already started buying devil fruits, and we can't fall behind."

"Although we haven't found out the origin of that Devil Fruit shop yet, we can't wait any longer."

"Well, I've prepared the gold. You can immediately arrange for someone to go there and bring back a few Devil Fruits."

"Attention, that Devil Fruit store is not an ordinary store. You are only going there as a customer to buy the fruit, and at the same time, you can bring back as much information as possible. Don't have any other thoughts. Do you understand?"

"Understood, sir!" Marco responded immediately without any discount.

"Okay, let's go down."

"Long live the Hydra!"

"Long live the Hydra!"

Marco gave a respectful, Hydra-like heartfelt speech to Alexander Pierce, then turned and walked away.

At this time, Alexander Pierce put on his reading glasses again and looked through the documents again.

It seems that he is really just a minister of the World Security Council, a civilian, nothing more.
