Marvel’s Superman

When Luke and Bucky walked to the movie theater across the street, the future Captain America was being beaten in the back alley.

The punch of "Boom" landed on Steve Rogers' cheek, causing a clear pain.

Unsurprisingly, Rogers was knocked to the ground.

His thin body made him look particularly weak in front of the strong villain.

This is why in the movie theater, no one dares to stand up and stop each other.

No one wants to get into unnecessary trouble, even if the strong villain makes a loud noise and doesn't care about the opinions of others.

Only a "fool" like Rogers would risk being beaten up and jumping out to stop the other person's impolite behavior.

Rogers, who fell into the corner, hurriedly picked up the lid of the trash can next to him and used it as a shield to block him.

In his eyes, there was no fear at all, but a determined look.

like a brave warrior.

Unfortunately, the huge gap in size and strength cannot be made up by pure courage.

The strong villain shook his fist and knocked Rogers to the ground again.

But it didn't take long for the thin little man to struggle to get up again, posing like a boxer as if he didn't know the pain.

"I can play with you all day!"

Rogers gasped.

His punches were slow and not strong enough, and he was easily blocked by the strong villain.

"Looks like you haven't been taught enough!"

The villain sneered, and his clenched fist made intimate contact with Rogers' nose again.

He also wanted to go up and kick his feet hard, so that this little guy who had no self-knowledge understood what it was like to be a nosy.

Bang!

A strong force came from behind.

The villain let out a scream, and the whole person lost his balance and stumbled and fell to the wall.

"What neighborhood bastard are you to bully my friends in Brooklyn?"

A cold voice sounded from behind.

The villain turned his head quickly and saw two young people.

One was wearing a neatly ironed brown military uniform, the other a leather jacket.

The latter is staring at himself with sharp eyes.

"Luke! This kid is nosy! I didn't know him..."

Bang!

Luke didn't say a word, stepped forward, raised his fist and hit the villain's nose.

The opponent leaned back and fell heavily on the hard ground.

Blood spewed out of his nose like a faucet with a valve open.

Luke didn't stop there, he raised his long legs, his dark black boots stepped on the other's twisted face and rubbed hard.

"Woooooo... Luke!"

The muddy water and coal ash on the soles of the shoes poured into the villain's mouth involuntarily.

Combined with the blood overflowing from the nose, it mixed into a strange smell.

"Go away. Next time I see you bullying my friend, I might go to your house to paint the house."

After a while, Luke released his foot and said coldly.

The villain, whose face was covered in blood, ran out of the alley in embarrassment, not even thinking of uttering a cruel word.

No way, the other party is Frank's nephew.

And he was taken care of by Irish gangsters, so he couldn't afford it.

"That's why I let Luke stay in Brooklyn to take care of you."

Bucky in a military uniform stretched out his hand and pulled Rogers, with a helpless expression on his face: "Sometimes I think you just like being beaten, otherwise why do you always like to provoke these bastards who you can't beat."

Rogers patted the dust on his clothes and took a deep breath.

The pain in the cheeks and eye sockets was clearly transmitted back to the brain at this time, and there was a severe burning sensation.

Previously, relying on his courage, he forgot the pain in his body.

now...

Rogers felt like he was going to see a doctor.

"You went to the draft station again?"

Luke picked up the draft form on the ground with Steve Rogers' identification on it.

Just the place of residence, from Brooklyn, New York, to Params, New Jersey.

"It's against the law to falsify draft forms, Steve."

Luke rubbed his palms.

Fortunately, this body has been exercised all the year round, quite strong, and has no problem with the villain.

He, Rogers, and Bucky all grew up in Brooklyn.

However, their experiences are more similar than their own.

First, both parents died in the war.

Rogers' father, who served in the 107th Infantry Division, was killed by German mustard gas during a battle.

My mother is a nurse in a tuberculosis ward. Unfortunately, she was infected and could not survive.

To a certain extent, the future Captain America can be regarded as the protagonist template for parents to sacrifice to the sky.

As for Bucky's background experience, the same is true.

His father, who also served in the 107th Infantry Division, died in an accident during a military exercise and was raised by his mother.

Therefore, these two young people who have known each other since childhood became close partners.

"I just wanted to do something..."

Rogers lowered his head in frustration and coughed violently.

Not only was he thin, he also had mild asthma.

Symptoms such as chest tightness and difficulty breathing are often present.

With such a physique, sending it to the battlefield is like murder.

As a result, every time Rogers went to the recruiting station, he was rejected by the recruiting officer.

"You didn't have to be so... fierce, Luke."

Rogers looked up at his friend and said hesitantly.

Luke frowned slightly, then stretched out, showing a friendly smile: "I have to do that. Otherwise, in Brooklyn, there will be more people bullying you and even making trouble for us."

"Luke is right, if it weren't for his uncle, who has a certain reputation among the Irish immigrant community, we don't know how much we would have been bullied by those gangsters."

Bucky nodded in agreement.

He and Rogers had been bullied by those little gangsters before.

It is repeated almost every day, being blocked by people in the corner, and the daily routine of street fights between the two sides.

Until one day they met Luke and became friends.

Later, it became, blocking others in the corner.

And in Bucky's eyes, Luke is very smart.

He came up with the idea of ​​making money, taking advantage of the strict management of military bases and the premise that soldiers cannot go out casually.

Several people sneaked into the barracks to sell small commodities such as tobacco and alcohol.

Because of the protection of their parents and old comrades in arms, many people turn a blind eye to this, as if they did not see it.

They made a lot of money from this business.

Later, it attracted the attention of the bootleggers in Brooklyn.

It was Luke who took the initiative to build a good relationship with the Irish immigrant group and took the initiative to divide up a part of the business to avoid this trouble.

"That's fine, you stay home and can continue to run your business. When I come back, maybe both of you will become rich! Just like Howard Stark!"

Bucky joked.

No one knows how long the war will last.

For civilians, they hope that the smoke of gunpowder will dissipate sooner and life will return to peace.

But for others, it's a chance to make a fortune.

Capitalists never miss an opportunity to accumulate wealth.

Many people know that before the United States entered this world war, it sold a large amount of weapons and equipment to both the Axis and Allies to make a fortune.

Among them is Stark Industries, which has risen to prominence in recent years.

It can grow rapidly, leap up, and stand side by side with the old military-industrial groups, mainly because Howard Stark seized the opportunity.

The other party not only used his bright mind, but also added some useful inventions, which was appreciated by the Ministry of Defense.

And they also use the huge wealth they have earned to open the door to the upper class, thus laying a broad and good foundation of contacts.

In just a few decades, he has become a generation of military tycoons.

In addition to the rapidly growing Stark industry, there are also oil companies that have seized the opportunity.

Through neutral countries like Switzerland, they broke through the British blockade and shipped barrels of oil to Germany to make huge profits and make a lot of money.

Ford, a multinational corporation and industrial giant, is even more exaggerated.

Even helping the Germans produce trucks for a covert political investment.

So, Henry Ford, the founder of Ford, was awarded the Grand Cross - the highest medal awarded to foreigners by the German Nazis.

It can be seen from this that capital has no camps.

They have only one purpose, and that is to harvest wealth.

Even now that the United States has entered the war and joined the alliance of the Allies, the world situation has become more and more serious, but it still cannot stop the cautious thinking of speculators.

"Howard Stark, I don't have a brain like that!"

Luke smiled slightly. He turned his head and said to Rogers, "Steve, if you really want to join the army, and there are so many recruiting stations, I can accompany you a few more times, just take your luck."

"real?"

Rogers had a surprised smile on his face.

Bucky has always been against his enlistment in the army, and there have been several quarrels between the two.

Luke usually rarely expresses his position, but today he suddenly agreed with his approach, which made Rogers very happy.

Bucky, who was standing next to him, was about to say something, but when he saw Luke throwing a "I'm measured" in his eyes, he didn't say anything.

He knew that Luke, a taciturn friend who never did things for no reason.

"Okay! Tonight is my last night in New York! Are you going to spend it in this alley?"

Bucky eagerly greeted the two friends.

He will go to war tomorrow, to a foreign country.

Tonight, I made a special appointment with a few hot and beautiful chicks, ready to take Luke and Rogers to indulge.
