Marvel With Zanpakuto

There are huge pipes all over the passage, winding and leading to the depths. The outer layer has been eroded by wind and snow and turned rusty red. Combined with the minced meat of the corpses and the dried and blackened blood, it looks like Like a monster's esophagus.

Wuwuwu——

From the deepest part of the passage, a cold wind blew in my face.

Bucky moved his nose, and then frowned slightly. He smelled a familiar smell in the air.

It was the man who tried to manipulate him at that time...

No wonder Tony Stark searched the entire base but found no trace of him. It turned out that he was hiding in the underground passage.

"Could it be...he's also after that thing?!"

Suddenly, Bucky's eyes flashed.

Without map instructions, it is almost impossible to find this passage using ordinary methods.

At the beginning, in order to hide the things under this base, Hydra went to great lengths, even building a real base, and all of this was to hide the truth from others.

Even Tony Stark couldn't find it.

He found the passage to this secret base relying on the guidance of 'Arthur'.

But here's the thing.

How did that person...find him here?

In a maze-like base, finding the right path is as difficult as finding a needle in a haystack. It can't be due to luck, right?

He doesn't believe in luck, only evidence and facts.

Judging from the current situation, that man probably came here for that thing, and even came here one step ahead of him!

When he thought of this, Bucky suddenly felt bad. He ignored the weirdness of this passage and rushed into the depths.

Katcha kacha kacha…

The already frozen ground made a cracking sound when stepped on, and the crackling sound spread far away, echoing continuously in the closed underground environment.

Now, there is no time to worry about alerting the enemy.

His speed was very fast, and when he sprinted with all his strength, it was almost like a gust of wind, blowing through the passage, and the cracked ice could not even catch up.

The temperature seems to be gradually increasing as we go deeper.

The violent exercise, coupled with the increase in temperature, forced Bucky to stop, recover his strength and move forward slowly.

Water was also seeping out from the surface of the pipes all over the passage. The water droplets hit his shoulders, making a sneer and causing a blister.

"Damn it, why is it so hot? Is there an active volcano down here?!" Bucky wiped the sweat from his face and licked his dry and cracked lips.

The high temperature environment has already caused him to become dehydrated.

If he does not replenish water within an hour, he will probably die of dehydration.

He died of dehydration due to heat in Antarctica. He estimated that if he were to be exposed, he would be written into the history books as "the stupidest way to die in history."

After walking nearly a hundred meters, the temperature was already very high.

Even a genetically modified super soldier is about to reach his physiological limit. Bucky persists until now with only a burst of energy.

But no matter how strong your will is, you can't go beyond your physical limits.

He felt like a lonely traveler walking in the desert. Waiting for his end, he could only die of thirst and turn into a skeleton under the yellow sand.

"That guy...how did he persist?"

Bucky deeply doubted that Zemo was just an ordinary person. How could he go deeper than him in such an extreme environment?

Just when he couldn't hold on any longer.

Uh-huh!

Suddenly, a figure floated in front of his eyes, which instantly aroused Bucky's alertness and forced him to concentrate.

When he looked carefully, he found nothing.

The figure that floated past just now seemed to be an illusion caused by the heat.

But...is it really an illusion?

Bucky didn't think he was wrong. Even when he was on the verge of death, his brain still remained clear.

The strange scene at the elevator entrance before they were reunited.

It's hard not to wonder whether there is some connection between the flickering black shadow and the dead people.

He took a long, gentle breath, followed the direction of the flickering black shadow, and continued to explore deeper.

Uh-huh!

A black shadow flashed across again.

Although the flash was very fast, Bucky could see clearly this time that he was a skinny man wearing layers of ragged yellow robes and a pale mask.

Although he looked thin and clumsy, the figure's movements were extremely flexible.

Bucky followed, only to find that the figure flickered and disappeared again, as if to guide him.

"Are you inviting me..."

He murmured to himself, and the weird feeling became more intense.

But now, he has no way out.

Either find that thing or die here!

With the determination to die, Bucky took a deep breath and followed the flickering figure, heading lower and deeper.

Every time the yellow-robed figure flashes, there will be a brief pause.

This seems to be to take care of Bucky so that he can keep up and not fall behind.

Bucky followed the figure for who knows how long.

Until he felt his mouth was dry and his body was weak, and when he was about to reach his limit, the figure in a ragged yellow robe finally stopped.

But what is unexpected is...

Beneath the secret base in Antarctica, which is unknown how deep it is, there is neither a Hydra base nor any high-tech equipment, only a tower made of stones about tens of centimeters high.

The coordinates of the tower are arranged in a specific orbit.

And that tattered yellow-robed figure was like an evil ghost, floating with its feet off the ground in the center of the tower orbit.

He... or it was like a dead person.

The completely drooped head looked like a hanged person, with a breathtaking atmosphere everywhere.

Bucky swallowed, and was so shocked by the strange scene in front of him that he didn't know what to do.

Just when he was about to take a closer look, he saw the yellow-robed figure floating in the air suddenly twitching.

Bucky subconsciously took a few steps back and looked at the yellow-robed figure vigilantly, and found that the man was still twitching, and the frequency seemed to be getting more and more serious.

Plop!

Suddenly, something fell out of the yellow robe.

Although it was relatively far away, Bucky could clearly see that it was not something, but a... living person!

A person fell out of the ragged yellow robe?

Such a strange scene made Bucky shudder and feel that his whole body was wet with sweat, especially when he saw that the ragged and broken yellow robe was so empty and floating in the air after losing its support. It's even more serious.

He forced himself to calm down, used his willpower to suppress his fear, and then walked over step by step.

When he got closer, he looked down at the person who fell out.

After seeing the latter's appearance clearly, almost instantly, Bucky felt his scalp numb and the hairs all over his body standing on end. He couldn't help blurting out this person's name:

“Zemo?!

! "

Yes, it was Zemo who fell out of the yellow robe!

Before Bucky could clear his thoughts, he suddenly felt a chill on his back, like some kind of soft touch, and his eyes widened in horror, filled with extreme fear.

The broken and tattered yellow robe was suddenly draped over his body, and a pale mask slowly covered his face until it completely covered his frightened eyes.

A yellow talisman appeared on the forehead of the mask.
