"When...when did you find out?" Tony Stark's voice was hoarse, and he turned his head again, his eyes red, as he looked at Huang Wen and asked.
"When I saw him when I got back..." Huang Wen sighed softly and said, "Well, I don't know how to handle this matter either. After all, you're the one involved. I can do my best to try and tell you the truth. But the final decision is still up to you. I hope you won't regret it after you make your decision."
"I understand!" Tony Stark slowly calmed down, paused for a moment, took a deep breath, and, to Huang Wen's surprise, said two words: "Thank you."
Huang Wen never imagined Tony Stark would actually thank her. It's worth noting that even when Huang Wen helped Tony Stark remove the bullet fragments from his chest, Tony Stark didn't personally express his gratitude.
"I've calmed down, but I won't say it again!" Tony Stark's lips curved slightly at the sight of Huang Wen's surprised expression. He hadn't expected her to actually say "thank you" either.
However, Tony Stark was secretly very grateful to Huang Wen, because she had realized that Bucky Barnes was an innocent human being, just like his parents. If he had actually killed Bucky Barnes, he would have been no different from Hydra.
Moreover, the real killer of his parents, the one who directed Bucky Barnes to kill his parents, was Alexander Pierce, standing right in front of him!
"You... you promised you'd let me go!" Alexander Pierce regretted having overheard Huang Wen's words just moments ago. After all, he'd revealed the truth to survive, but he never expected that truth to lead him into such a dead end!
"Heh heh!" Tony Stark glared coldly at Alexander Pierce, his eyes blazing with rage, "Do you think that's possible?"
"You're the Avengers, you're superheroes, there should be limits to what you do..." Alexander Pierce shouted anxiously, but before he could finish his sentence, his figure vanished from the Wing Chun Martial Arts School.
Yes, Huang Wen made his move. Huang Wen took him from the Wing Chun Martial Arts School and transported him to Base No. 2.
"Hmm?" Tony Stark turned his head in surprise and looked at Huang Wen. He hadn't fully grasped what was happening yet and didn't understand why Huang Wen had taken Alexander Pierce with her.
"Don't defile my martial arts school, and there are still children here. It won't be good if your methods are too brutal..." Huang Wen waved his hand gently and said, "He's at Base Number 2. Go and vent your anger properly. When you want to come back, Fool, let me know."
The moment Huang Wen's voice faded, Tony Stark's silhouette also vanished from the Wing Chun Martial Arts School, heading towards Base 2 to exact his revenge.
"Mr. Huang Wen, I..." Bucky Barnes looked at Huang Wen hesitantly, a hint of guilt still on his face.
"I won't interfere in your matter. As I said before, this is Tony's business. I won't interfere in how he treats you after he returns." Huang Wen nodded seriously and said, "However, if you want to atone for your sins, you can follow Steve and deal with the remaining Hydra members. After all, they weren't completely destroyed, and you might remember some parts of Hydra."
"As for what that guy just said..." Huang Wen looked around at everyone in the martial arts school, his gaze lingering on Steve Rogers, the Swallowtail Trio, and the Spider Trio, before continuing.
"If you think he's right, if you think that as superheroes you should have some kind of 'rules,' then I guess you're not fit to be a superhero."
"Mr. Huang Wen, I disagree with you on this!" Steve Rogers frowned and rose to his feet without hesitation. "If superheroes have no limits, they will gradually lose their self-control. Then, I fear, they will be no different from supervillains!"
"I mean, don't let that so-called red line be the reason you restrict yourself!" Huang Wen nodded, "As for the self-control you mentioned, Steve, I believe you possess it, and I also believe that with teamwork, you can all maintain that control. I just don't want you to cling to that so-called red line, that superhero identity, when you're faced with situations like today's, because you don't need to think so much when dealing with these villains..."
"But I..." Steve Rogers didn't change his mind because of Huang Wen's words. He still wanted to say something, but he saw a moment of surprise in Huang Wen's eyes, then waved his hand and Tony Stark returned to the Wing Chun Martial Arts School.
"I'm sorry!" Bucky Barnes stepped forward when he saw Tony Stark return, and bowing his head, said to Tony Stark, "Whatever you do to me, I understand..."
"You..." Tony Stark's expression changed slightly when he saw Bucky Barnes, but he immediately took a deep breath and said in a thick voice, "Then save your life and destroy all the remaining Hydra!"
"I remember a place where the other Winter Troopers were cryogenically preserved!" Bucky Barnes took a deep breath and said to Tony Stark, "They're all controlled by Hydra. Alexander Pierce didn't just mention them!"
"What about the other branches of Hydra? Did he lie?" Tony Stark suddenly felt he might have killed Alexander Pierce too soon. He could have let Huang Wen investigate Alexander Pierce's memory first, or had Bucky Barnes confirm the veracity of Alexander Pierce's words.
"The others weren't wrong. All I know are the group of senators in the government, Baron Strucker's group, Dr. Zola who turned into a supercomputer, and the Viper group I haven't seen yet..." Bucky Barnes nodded, confirming that Alexander Pierce had revealed all the remaining members of Hydra.
"The senator's group? He just said the other side is very secretive and only they know their connections. Haven't you ever even seen that senator?" Steve Rogers asked, frowning.
"No, rather, those at the very top of Hydra don't easily reveal their identities. Even when they come face-to-face with other Hydra leaders, they keep their cards close to their chest..." sighed Bucky Barnes.
