American Comics: BOSS Invasion

#268 - Helpless Hawkeye

Explosions echoed endlessly, as a barrage of missiles shot out, altering the landscape of the target area.

Natasha covered her ears and received a message, then turned and said, "Fury, the forward troops have completed the sweep. No sign of Baron Strucker!"

Nick Fury showed no surprise. "Send men to clean up the battlefield, and push the troops directly to the next base coordinates.

Baron Strucker is the only HYDRA high-ranking officer who dares to show his face. He has a wealth of information. We must dig him out!"

Just then, a shadow fell over the two of them.

They looked up and saw a massive airship floating in the sky, seemingly out of nowhere.

The airship was round and bulbous, with no visible armaments. It was colored red and light gray, with a protective shield enveloping it, giving it the feel of a spaceship.

Natasha's heart skipped a beat. She quickly contacted Hawkeye, then turned and said, "It's the Shadow Legion. There are about 800 of them. According to Clint's assessment, over 95% of them possess physiques nearly as strong as Captain America's."

"Then proceed according to the plan. How many targets do we have left?"

"About 17 bases. Only one is a French government military base. I suspect a large portion of HYDRA's forces are hidden there!"

"Good! That one is ours! The others are for the Shadow Legion. Notify Clint, I need the specific combat data!" Nick Fury said calmly.

"Got it!"

Natasha contacted Hawkeye again, then suddenly paused, her expression strange. "Fury, Clint says the Shadow Legion has been partying the whole way. Most of them are already drunk, and the rest are dizzy and spouting nonsense.

I'm afraid they won't be able to carry out the mission for a while!"

"…" This time, Nick Fury was also stunned.

He had considered all sorts of situations, but he never expected to encounter a drunken incident.

These bastards, don't they know they're out here on a mission?

Nick Fury said with a dark face, "Wake them up immediately!"

HYDRA wasn't stupid either. Once they realized they were exposed, they would quickly disappear without a trace.

Even with Nick Fury's resources and methods, it took him over a month of investigation through various channels to find these bases.

There was only one chance to strike. If they missed it, HYDRA would go into hiding again.

The incidents SHIELD had encountered before could repeat themselves.

The mission could not be changed.

"Brook! Brook!"

Hawkeye grabbed the afro-headed skeleton by the neck, shaking his head into a blur.

But the afro-headed skeleton in front of him was still sleeping soundly, his large nose bubbling bigger and smaller, his mouth making soft snores.

For the first time, Hawkeye complained about the food being too good.

With the departure imminent, and these bastards all drunk like this, what about the mission?

And, this bastard was a skeleton, so why did he have a thick afro?

Could he really be a creature from hell?

In this day and age, you never know!

At that moment, a light screen suddenly appeared in front of Hawkeye, and Alice's voice rang in his ears.

"Agent Clint Barton, Nick Fury's assistant director and Agent Natasha Romanoff have been detected. Do you need to bring them aboard the airship?"

"Alice?"

"That's right, it's me! Because this support mission was initiated by Nick Fury's assistant director,

the director attaches great importance to it and has classified it as a B-level mission, with me personally assisting."

As soon as she finished speaking, the light screen quickly locked onto the electronic devices on Nick Fury and Natasha.

"Electronic terminal detected, acquiring data, emitting a neutron beam, preparing to scan…"

Clint was startled and quickly stopped her. "Wait…"

But before he could finish speaking, Alice had already completed the scan and quickly sorted through it, selecting the data related to this mission and compiling it into a dynamic map.

"Seventeen marked locations detected, along with a large number of analysis reports of the surrounding terrain. Should we split into 17 teams as planned, and simultaneously launch a devastating blow to all of HYDRA's bases?"

"Uh…"

"Understood! Initiating the awakening procedure!"

Hawkeye was startled and quickly stopped her. "Wait, I haven't…"

Melodious music was already coming from the speakers. As soon as that familiar melody started, Hawkeye recognized that the song was the one they had been singing like crazy just now, 'Bink's Sake'.

Don't be a random idiot, don't call yourself a pirate, singing pirate songs, singing and dancing and fooling around.

Hawkeye, as a proper agent, really couldn't understand what these people were thinking.

As soon as the intro was over, Brook, who had been sleeping with bubbles coming out of his nose, instantly woke up, the song coming out of his throat on its own.

"Yohohoho ~ Yohohoho ~"

Hawkeye was afraid he would continue singing, so he shouted loudly, "Brook!"

The skeleton turned his face and said, "Oh, Clint-san is here too, good morning, I slept really well last night, it felt like I was at a banquet!"

You bastard really had a banquet, and it was just a few hours ago.

Hawkeye only complained about this in his heart, too lazy to argue with them.

He put on a straight face and said directly, "We have reached our destination, gather your men, and start the mission immediately. We will split into 16 teams…"

Brook suddenly stood up and shouted excitedly, "Men, let's fight!"

Magically, as soon as he shouted, the people who had been lying drunk on the ground woke up one after another, gradually recovering, their eyes shining, and their faces showing inexplicable excitement.

"Split into 16 teams? No problem!"

Brook shouted, "The 6th to 20th combat squads, set off immediately, one target base per team.

The rest of you come with me, we're going to gnaw on a tough bone.

We are pirates, besides sailing, what do we desire most?"

"Fight! Fight! Fight!"

Hundreds of people below shouted in unison, their eyes red, their faces full of excitement.

"Let's go!"

Brook waved his hand, and hundreds of people in front of him instantly dispersed.

The sound of drum-like footsteps gradually faded away, followed by Alice's voice saying, "The 6th combat squad is in position, small airship launched! The 7th, 9th, 12th, 15th, and 16th squads are in position, small airships launched…"

Then, Hawkeye saw out the window, one small airship after another rapidly disappearing from view.

He was stunned for a long time, not knowing whether to laugh or cry!

What was going on!
