Chapter Ninety-Six: The True Goal

The mechanical gears were running wildly, and Barnes's steel arms were already emitting visible heat. He pushed forward as hard as he could, blocking the speed of the steel pipe a little. Less than a tenth of a second was enough for him, and a quick sideways turn was enough for him to dodge the path of the steel rod stabbing and slam his right elbow into Luke's chest at the same time.

Luke, who was caught off guard for a moment, rushed forward with inertia, and met his chest to the elbow with his eyes. The steel rod in his hand cut a wound in Barnes's waist and sank into the brick wall behind him. Under Barnes's tugging, the steel rod, which was no longer visible, broke in two.

"Die! Die! Die! ”

Luke, who had received an elbow, did not stop in the slightest, and he was more aggressive when he lost his weapon. After squeezing Barnes into this tight space, his defense was already the best offense. This close distance made it impossible for Barnes to use his spear fighting skills, and could only passively dodge and defend against Luke's incessant iron fists.

The first punch was caught by Barnes' mechanical left arm, and the second punch missed the right side of his head, piercing the wall behind him. Splattered rubble flew everywhere, but it didn't affect the two men in the heat of battle. In a fit of rage, Luke threw his third and fourth punches, but Barnes's eyes as deep as the sea still showed no emotion, and his brain was still calmly trying to analyze the best way to defeat his enemy.

His mechanical left hand swept away a punch and sideways to dodge the next attack. And this sideways body evolved into a shoulder blow to Luke's chest under the force of his legs. And the steel-like man's body did not move at all, but his own shoulder ached faintly.

However, the opportunities he needed had already created success. Ignoring the soreness of his entire right arm, Barnes bent down slightly, while his mechanical left arm grabbed Luke's calf. In the next moment, Luke lost his balance in an instant, and his entire body was picked up by Barnes and smashed against the wall behind them.

The brick wall, which had been crumbling under the constant bombardment, collapsed under the final blow, and Luke's flying figure had the strength to break through the wall, flying four or five meters in the air before crashing into a pillar in the room. A streak of blood ran down Luke's nose as he groaned and barely moved his arms as he tried to prop himself up from the ground.

Barnes jumped into the room through the hole in the wall, the rubble under his boot turning to dust. Judging by the décor and exquisite mahogany furnishings, this shop looks like a restaurant. I don't know if the boss will faint directly when he sees this tragic situation in his store the next day.

"This, where is this..."

Luke. Cage looked at his surroundings in confusion, he didn't recognize it.

"I... I just—" He clutched his forehead in pain, while his hand felt something wet and sticky. Without him looking, the smell he could smell was a good indication of what it was.

And when he opened his eyes again, he saw a man. The man looked quite familiar, especially the left arm, which looked a little reflective.

"Who are you?"

Barnes didn't answer his question, and his left fist slammed into Luke's head. Caught off guard, Luke swayed and almost fell to the ground again, but Barnes' right hand caught him.

And this is not a kind gesture.

Barnes' left hand slammed into Luke's face again with the mechanical hum, followed by a second and a third. Barnes' iron fist slammed down like a precision piledriver, repeating the action until his entire arm began to smoke.

Luke was unconscious, but his chest was still slowly heaving. Barnes tossed Luke to the ground, then pulled out his pistol, aiming it at Luke's temple.

"Bang! Bang! Bang! ”

He poured all the remaining bullets from the gun on Luke's head, but the titanium-like skin protected his unconscious owner. The shots undoubtedly strengthened Luke's internal wounds, but at least he wasn't dead.

Barnes was silent for a moment, seemingly unsure of how to deal with the invincible enemy. After a while, he had no choice but to give up. After making sure that the difficult guy was indeed unconscious, Barnes could only symbolically tie Luke's hands and feet, leaving him to the finishing crew who would arrive later.

-----

The end of the battle between these two inhuman ranks had been caught in the eyes of Peter, who was standing on the roof of the building across the street.

"That guy—" muttered Peter in shock.

“... It's the guy we faced last time. Matt took his words. His arm, which had completely healed from the injuries he had suffered from the last battle, began to ache inexplicably.

It's enough strength and defense to make people desperate, if it weren't for their last trick to win a game, I'm afraid Matt would still be alive and dead. And the iron-armed man in front of him easily won in a head-to-head battle with only his brute strength.

It's incredible.

And Peter couldn't help but be afraid. By this time he had recognized the man with the metal arm, and they had exchanged hands a little before. It seems that the other party's evacuation that day was purely because they didn't want to fight. If this man had shown the strength he showed today to fight him, he would have to pay some price to escape.

"Since this big guy is also serving Jinhe, then we can basically be sure. Kilgrave must be working for Kim now. Matt voiced the speculation that both men were worried about.

"yes," Peter sighed. If that's the case, I'm afraid we're in a lot of trouble. Although the weakness of that person is obvious, he is almost unstoppable in the right situation. I really don't want to face him again. ”

"Escaping alone won't solve anything." Matt said in a deep voice, his expression becoming serious. "After the last experience, I now have some confidence that I can resist his control. This time, let's get rid of this problem once and for all. ”

"Hmm... As for the third party that suddenly appeared..."Now even the dullest person can see that something is wrong with this force that has suddenly joined. They don't seem to care about anything else, their only purpose is to kill or capture Kim.

"They—" There was a hint of jealousy in Matt's voice, and Peter couldn't help but glance at the iron-armed man who was already on another spare motorcycle. They are variables, we don't know any of their intelligence, but there is certainly one person who does. ”

"Jin Ji."

"That's right."

Peter couldn't help but sigh, and it was all back to square one. To solve all this, they have to capture the gold. Peter patted his company, cleared all the negative emotions from his mind, and pulled himself together again.

"Then we're going to speed up as well, we now know what Kim is aiming for, and we have to stop him before he can do more damage!"

That's right, after Kim and they took them around the whole circle, Peter and Matt finally realized the ultimate goal of Kim and the team. After creating a lot of chaos in New York City, almost all of the police officers on duty were dispatched to the various crime locations to put out the fires. Less than a kilometer away, at the New York City Police Headquarters, there are only a few logistics personnel and a handful of a dozen armed police officers guarding the town.

George was still in his office, giving orders to the patrol officers scattered around New York, unaware of the impending danger.
