Nick Fury couldn't reach any definite conclusions about the specifics of the situation because he lacked supporting information.
However, one thing was certain in Fury's mind:
Regardless of the serum's origin, since the Super Soldier Serum appeared in the future, Fury absolutely could not miss out on it!
No.
Although John Walker had injected the serum in the future, that only showed that the serum existed before then, not that it didn't exist now.
It was entirely possible that the Super Soldier Serum still existed!
In an instant, Nick Fury made another decision:
After this round of spoilers, he would immediately investigate the Super Soldier Serum.
If the Super Soldier Serum didn't exist, then so be it. But if it did exist, Fury would find it!
After sorting out his thoughts, Fury turned his gaze back to the diary, unable to help but reveal a hint of doubt.
Since John Walker, the second Captain America, had already been injected with the Super Soldier Serum and become a true super-soldier, why was he stripped of the Captain America title?
Was it because he secretly injected the Super Soldier Serum?
Did those politicians even care about that?
Or was it due to some other reason?
Nick Fury naturally couldn't figure this out either.
He didn't dwell on it and instead began to focus on another key point.
The Third Captain America could actually fly?
The diary was also very clear that the Third Captain America, Falcon, was an ordinary person.
So, if he could fly, it must be because of equipment.
Then those so-called "Falcon Wings" were undoubtedly a type of individual equipment that allowed someone to fly.
Wait a minute!
Falcon!
Nick Fury's mind stirred. He immediately recalled that the military had once developed a Falcon project.
Later, Nick Fury didn't know why that plan was shelved, but the single-soldier flight equipment in the Falcon plan, wasn't that a pair of wings?
So, could the Falcon Wings of the Third Captain America be the same as the military's Falcon Wings?
Nick Fury thought this possibility was quite high.
Of course, whether it was or wasn't, Fury needed to secretly investigate.
Oh, right, there's also a US-Soviet Union version of Captain America, the Red Guardian, who is also a super soldier injected with the Super Soldier Serum.
It's completely a US-Soviet Union imitation of Captain America and can be considered a knockoff Captain America.
He often brags about fighting Captain America, but it's hard to say if it's true or not.
But this poor guy is also miserable enough; he's clearly a super soldier, but most of his life has been spent in prison.
"It wasn't until Black Widow rescued him that he saw the light of day again, but by then he'd gotten so fat he couldn't even fit into his uniform."
Red Guardian?
The Soviet Union's version of Captain America?
This wave of spoilers also piqued Nick Fury's intense interest.
However, the Captain America era was before the Egghead was even born.
So, Fury didn't know much about the Red Guardian of the same period.
But, receiving this news from the diary didn't surprise Nick Fury.
After all, back then, as the world's only two superpowers, the US-Soviet Union had a period of extremely fierce competition.
Seeing Captain America appear out of nowhere, it wasn't surprising that the other side had created a knock-off version.
Nick Fury wasn't concerned about that.
What truly concerned him was that this knock-off Captain America was still alive!
But, when he thought about it, it made sense.
Captain America was alive, and the Winter Soldier had survived to this day, which was enough to show how amazing the lifespans of these super soldiers were.
It wasn't strange that the Red Guardian had lived until now.
Even why the Red Guardian was imprisoned wasn't something Nick Fury cared about. The only thing he truly cared about was one thing:
Where exactly was the Red Guardian imprisoned!
If possible, Nick Fury naturally wanted to recruit this super soldier, the Red Guardian, into his ranks.
Just one thing, why would Black Widow go to save this Red Guardian?
Considering that Black Widow also came from the US-Soviet Union, Nick Fury naturally made a guess:
Red Guardian and Black Widow must have some kind of connection!
Well, this makes things much easier.
Wait a minute, I suddenly thought of a key question. All those people mentioned earlier are from the 199999 universe.
But the universe I've transmigrated to now doesn't seem to be the 199999 universe at all.
So whether there's a second or third Captain America, a Black Captain America, or a knock-off Captain America, it's really hard to say.
It's even hard to say whether Captain America is actually Captain America or a Hydra Captain.
Haha, if it's a Hydra Captain universe, that would be a lot more interesting.
[After all, the Hydra Captain was truly fierce, scheming to kill Dr. Banner and Black Widow, directly leading to the second Civil War among the superheroes.]
[He truly made outstanding contributions to HYDRA, a worthy Captain America of HYDRA!]
Hydra Captain?
What the hell?
Tony Stark was immediately shocked by this extremely impactful term.
What kind of figure was Captain America?
He was a national idol, the embodiment of the American spirit, a symbol of honor and belief.
His most significant achievement in his lifetime was leading the Howling Commandos in delivering a fatal blow to HYDRA.
He even sacrificed himself in the war against Schmidt, the leader of HYDRA.
Even though the playboy didn't idolize Captain America like others did, and even held him in low regard,
he'd never doubted Captain America's character.
And now, the diary was telling him that in some parallel universes, Captain America was actually HYDRA?
What a joke! Absurd!
That was the first thought that flashed through Tony Stark's mind.
You could say anyone was HYDRA, but to say Captain America, such an "anti-HYDRA fighter," was HYDRA? That was enough to make anyone laugh their head off.
But soon, Tony Stark calmed down and began to look at the matter more rationally.
Countless parallel universes meant countless possibilities! Theoretically, logically, a Hydra Captain was entirely possible.
So, a crucial question arises.
Is this universe actually the 199999 universe?
Even though Tony Stark knew that, up to this point, the discrepancies and confusions felt by Zhou Cheng, the diary's owner, were due to changes he and Nick Fury had made based on the diary's spoilers...
...even so, the playboy couldn't confirm if this was the 199999 universe. No one could.
If that were the case, wouldn't it mean no one could be certain if their world's Captain America was a HYDRA agent? This is just... damn.
Tony Stark naturally didn't want to believe that someone like Captain America was with HYDRA, but what if? "Hydra Captain, huh?"
Nick Fury, in front of another diary, was also lost in deep thought, considering this new batch of spoilers.
Not trusting anyone was always Fury's nature; extreme skepticism was ingrained in his very being.
So, this was astonishing news, and Nick Fury took it in stride much more smoothly than Tony Stark would have.
As a head of intelligence, the "one-eyed man" was accustomed to all sorts of conspiracies and dark dealings, so he naturally understood the possibilities of such a thing better than anyone else.
Who said Captain America couldn't be HYDRA?
Captain America's good friend, Bucky Barnes, was also HYDRA!
Not only Captain America, but even Barton, Black Widow, and Coulson, people the diary had vouched for, could also be HYDRA.
It was just a matter of the degree of probability.
Except for himself, Nick Fury couldn't be certain that anyone else wasn't HYDRA.
So, after some thought, the "one-eyed man" made a perfectly reasonable decision:
Looks like I need to keep a closer eye on Captain America from now on.
Although Nick Fury didn't think it was very likely based on theory, anything is possible.
If someone like Captain America was also part of HYDRA, the danger to the world would be truly terrifying.
Didn't the diary mention it?
In that other universe, the Hydra Captain even killed Bruce Banner!
Before this, Fury couldn't even believe that Bruce Banner, the one with a green monster inside him, could actually die?
According to the intel Fury had, Dr. Banner had tried to commit suicide, but it was useless.
That green behemoth simply wouldn't allow such a thing to happen!
However, the Hydra Captain did it!
But I remember, in that universe, War Machine Rhodes and Captain Marvel were a couple.
The starting point of the second Civil War among the heroes was the death of Rhodes, which created a rift between Iron Man and Captain Marvel.
But in this universe, Captain Marvel isn't even on Earth! However, this universe is definitely not the 199999 universe.
So, we'll just have to wait and see what's really going on.
Never mind. Although there are some major deviations in the Marvel multiverse, those are still in the minority.
Most parallel universes actually follow a similar path.
Since everyone in this universe is exactly the same as in the 199999 universe, let's just treat this universe as if it were the 199999 universe.
Tony Stark actually agreed with Zhou Cheng's point of view.
Although the playboy currently didn't have the ability to prove that this universe was the 199999 universe.
But from what it seemed, the way things were going in this universe was exactly the same as Zhou Cheng remembered from the 199999 universe, without any differences.
That meant the playboy could provisionally assume this universe was the 199999 universe.
Even if this universe wasn't ultimately the 199999 universe, it would certainly be a universe that highly matched and was strikingly consistent with the 199999 universe.
Using the intelligence from the 199999 universe for reference and analysis was perfectly viable.
Not just Tony Stark, but Nick Fury and Black Widow, the other two diary holders, generally thought the same.
After all, they were well aware that, apart from the changes caused by the holders themselves, all the intelligence in the diary had never deviated!
Therefore, everyone could still treat this universe as the 199999 universe, just like before.
They could analyze the intelligence revealed by Zhou Cheng as if it were true.
This basic approach was still perfectly sound.
I wish I could go to Vormir and take a look.
If the Red Skull was still alive and kicking on that planet, acting as a guide, then Captain America definitely wouldn't have become a Hydra Captain.
After all, the reason Captain America became a Hydra agent was all thanks to the Red Skull.
The Red Skull used the Tesseract to alter Captain America's past, making him believe he was a Hydra mole planted among the superheroes!
That's how he ended up doing so many shocking things.
"The Red Skull? Isn't he dead?"
Tony Stark couldn't help but exclaim in surprise again.
It had to be said, the diary's spoiler this time was simply too explosive.
One shocking piece of information after another completely overturned the public's long-held beliefs.
Everyone thought Red Skull was dead!
But the diary clearly stated that Red Skull, who was also presumed dead seventy years ago like Captain America, was actually still alive!
Neither in the original 199999 universe nor in the Hydra Captain's universe was Red Skull dead!
What was going on with that Hydra Captain's universe? The playboy naturally couldn't know, since the diary didn't mention it.
But in the 199999 universe, had Red Skull actually gone to an alien planet?
Seriously, was Red Skull really that awesome?
In those days, he had the ability to go to another planet?
One could only say he was worthy of being the leader of HYDRA; he was indeed extraordinary.
However…
So you went to an alien planet, fine, but why the hell are you a guide?
Was it some kind of tourist destination or something?
Of course, this was just the playboy's secret grumbling. Even if he used his thigh to think, he knew this alien guide wouldn't be simple.
Although he didn't know what schemes the Red Skull was up to on the alien planet, the scale of things was already so huge that it definitely wasn't a small matter.
Wait a minute!
Thinking of this, the playboy couldn't help but be stunned.
His mind wandered, and he suddenly thought of something.
In the future superhero era, there were many alien threats and alien invasion events. Could any of those alien events be related to the Red Skull?
Was he going to bring an alien force to invade Earth?
Damn it.
Although his thoughts were quite wild, no matter how the playboy thought about it, he couldn't rule out this possibility.
After all, since the Red Skull had the ability to go to an alien planet, he definitely had the ability to come back.
Plus, Red Skull was originally a big villain who wanted to rule the world, so anything he did wouldn't be surprising.
"The Tesseract!"
In addition, the Tesseract once again caught Tony Stark's eye, drawing his serious attention.
