Chapter 266: Chapter 264. Devil of the Seas
Puff, puff—
The sound of bullets hitting Davy Jones' body was dull and lifeless, like decaying wood.
The octopus tentacles on his face twisted with reckless abandon, quickly entangling a member of the special forces who stood before him. The terrifying strength of the tentacles overwhelmed the special forces member, who let out a piercing scream as a crisp crack filled the air. In the blink of an eye, the member was silenced forever.
"Bullets have no effect on this monster!"
Despite continuously firing bullets, Davy Jones showed no signs of being troubled in the slightest. As he watched the dwindling number of his team members, the expression on Captain Rumlow's face bordered on madness.
"Monster, you...!"
"Monster?!"
With a swing of his tentacle, Davy Jones slammed Rumlow to the ground. A look of anger twisted his terrifying face as he hobbled over to the fallen Captain. With his left hand transformed into a giant pincer, he easily lifted him up by the neck. "Rather than 'monster', I prefer the title of 'Devil of the Seas', because it represents people's fear of me..."
"Ugh~"
The enormous force from the claw made Rumlow's entire face turn purple, but he didn't hesitate to spit a mouthful of blood and saliva at the Davy Jones in front of him, struggling to say, " Devil of the Seas? In my eyes, you're just a shitty octopus!"
Raising his hand to wipe the spit off his face, Davy Jones's expression immediately turned gloomy. "Well, you've managed to anger me. As punishment for disrespecting the Captain, I'll have you swab the deck of my ship. Forever."
"To hell with your ship! You damn octopus!"
With a wicked smile on his face, Rumlow took a grenade from his waist and detonated it with no hesitation.
Boom—
Instantly, a burst of flames accompanied the sound of explosion on the ship.
.....
"So, what happened? Did you get Davy Jones?"
Struggling to turn his neck, Rumlow looked at Nick Fury and asked hoarsely.
"I'm sorry, agent."
Shaking his head in silence, Fury replied in a low voice, "The explosion didn't destroy the 'ghost ship.' In fact, the reason we were able to save you was because the explosion blasted you off the ship."
"So, everything I did was meaningless?"
Upon hearing Fury's answer, even though he had anticipated it, Rumlow couldn't help but feel a hint of despair.
"No, at least you helped us figure out the identity of our enemy. We are no longer clueless about the ghost ship," replied Fury, quickly reacting to the sacrifice of his team, feeling heartbroken. They were all excellent soldiers of SHILED.
However, rather than wallowing in self-pity and despair, Fury hoped to handle the crisis in an Avengers-like way.
"Sir, I hope the team's sacrifice wasn't in vain."
"Don't worry, soldier," turning his only intact eye towards Rumlow's scarred face, Fury replied with a resolute expression, "I will give the team members an account."
After calming Rumlow down in the hospital, Fury immediately left the hospital with Natasha.
A few minutes later, Pierce, in a sharp suit, appeared at the door of the ward.
"Hail Hydra."
On the hospital bed, Rumlow, looking at Pierce who pushed the door in, immediately straightened his face.
"Hail Hydra!"
.....
"The Flying Dutchman? Davy Jones?"
In the Triskelion Building, SHILED's Headquarters.
Captain America, Steve, listened to Natasha's report with a solemn expression on his face. He was particularly familiar with these two names, especially the latter. In fact, in the era he lived in, Davy Jones was always a character in the legendary stories of the sea.
"The 'Flying Dutchman' is the name of the ghost ship that is popular among the Dutch pirates. According to the legend, if the ship encounters another ship, its crew will try to send a message to land or to someone who had already died. Meeting this ghost ship at sea is an ominous sign. As for Davy Jones, there are even more legends about him..."
"Therefore, our opponent this time has changed from aliens to the legendary ruler of the deep sea, Davy Jones."
Clint couldn't help mutter to himself as he looked down at the bow and arrows in his hand.
"Obviously, Davy Jones is more than just a legend."
Shrugging her shoulders, Natasha reminded Clint.
"I would rather he just be a legend."
Hawkeye never imagined that as an agent, he not only had to fight against aliens, but now he had to fight against terrifying characters from legends.
"Speaking of fighting mythical creatures, Captain also has experience fighting vampires."
Natasha had looked at Captain America's files and knew that he had intense battles with vampires during World War II.
"If possible, I'd rather not have that battle experience." Steve gave a helpless smile as he met Natasha's gaze. Even for someone like Steve, who had been through many battles, the fight with Dio was a difficult one. Not only was Dio cruel, cunning, and insane as an opponent, but he had also been a comrade who fought alongside Steve before he became a vampire.
"Rather than discussing my past, the most important thing right now is to think about how to solve the Davy Jones problem." Shaking his head to bring his thoughts back from the vampire of World War II, Steve shifted his focus back to Davy Jones in New York Bay.
"We can't let the situation continue like this. Davy Jones must have a purpose for appearing in New York, and whatever it is, we must take action to stop him. Notify Fury, I need to assemble the Avengers." In legends, Davy Jones wasn't a kind character, on the contrary, 'Devil of the Seas' is the most common label for this sea demon.
"I've been ready for a long time, Captain." Fury appeared at the base and looked at Steve's determined expression, his voice deep as he said, "I'll leave everything to you, Captain."
"I understand."
With a nod, Steve answered Fury's plea without hesitation.
