Time remained, years were peaceful, time had passed and circumstances changed, but it was said that things were the same but people were different!
Samuel could understand Maria Hill's change, knowing the truth of the World, seeing many people pruned in because of 'freedom', her worldview would naturally change accordingly.
Birds of a feather flock together, environment changes life, it was normal!
Samuel told her about the terms of the deal with S.H.I.E.L.D., being able to leave the Void and regain freedom should have been a happy and exciting thing, but after Maria Hill heard it, her face was slightly solemn.
She knew very well that even if she went back, she would not be able to gain absolute trust as before.
Moreover, Nick Fury and others would definitely want to find out where she had been during this time, and what secrets Samuel had.
Just like her, back then!
Maria Hill was determined not to reveal Samuel and the Void's secrets under any circumstances, but she had no confidence in being able to keep the secrets.
After thinking for a moment, she said in a deep voice: "Seal all my memories after being pruned, if I don't remember these, I won't expose any flaws when I go back."
"With my original personality, I will definitely fight for S.H.I.E.L.D.'s interests and find a way to regain my power."
"When I regain trust and power, then, restore my memory, and I and Sharon team up, we should be able to make S.H.I.E.L.D. work for us!"
"Okay!"
Samuel gladly accepted her suggestion and then sealed her memory.
In fact, he originally didn't plan to let Maria Hill go back to S.H.I.E.L.D. as an undercover agent, after all, S.H.I.E.L.D. was already on the decline and didn't have many good days left, having Sharon alone was enough.
However, it was her intention, and Samuel didn't want to dampen her enthusiasm.
Moreover, the 'legacy' of S.H.I.E.L.D., the more the merrier!
Sealing her memory, letting her temporarily fall into a deep sleep, Samuel went to find Old Loki again, and got a Kree spaceship and several Quinjets from him.
He also found Reed, took out two pairs of Ten Rings, and had him make two more defensive domes.
After finishing, he shrunk them along with the spaceship and Quinjets, and then left the Void with the sleeping Maria Hill.
Void Express Branch.
Samuel woke up the bewildered and wary Maria Hill, her current memory was still at the time she met Samuel at her home.
Besides the memories after being pruned, Samuel also sealed the matter of him asking her for people.
After all, Jemma Simmons and Leo Fitz were sent by HYDRA, if they weren't sealed, HYDRA would likely be exposed.
He originally asked for four people, Jemma Simmons and Leo Fitz were doing research in the Zombie Universe, Barbara Morse, also known as Bobby, had already been taken by him.
The remaining Sharon Carter was originally one of his own people.
His cooperation with HYDRA was quite pleasant, it was better to avoid unnecessary trouble!
"Give these to Nick Fury, he knows what's going on."
Samuel handed her the prepared bag and pointed to the door: "You can leave."
The bag contained the items on the transaction list.
Maria Hill was full of astonishment: "What do you mean? Where is this? Weren't we at my house?"
"Nick Fury will answer your questions."
"If you don't explain clearly, I won't leave, you..."
Maria Hill naturally didn't want to leave in confusion, but Samuel was too lazy to explain, and directly waved his hand to send her directly to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters using a Teleportation portal.
"Whoosh--"
Immediately after, Samuel went to Madripoor.
Lowtown, Void Dock.
Not long after Samuel appeared, he saw Matsumoto Maki, wearing a black and white two-color tight-fitting bodysuit, like Tai Chi on her body, walking quickly towards him.
Her uniform was very similar in style to the uniform she wore after becoming Lady Bullseye in the comics, just not as revealing.
"Master."
Matsumoto Maki, who had come forward, greeted him respectfully.
Samuel nodded and casually asked: "How is the situation at the dock?"
"Everything is normal, it's just..."
Matsumoto Maki paused slightly and said hesitantly: "Not long ago, I discovered a somewhat suspicious guy."
Samuel raised an eyebrow: "Tell me about it."
Matsumoto Maki said: "Master, have you heard of Meiying?"
Meiying?
It sounded like a code name.
Samuel recalled for a moment and shook his head: "Never heard of him! Daring to be called this name, he should be very beautiful, right?"
"Uh..."
Matsumoto Maki shook her head with a strange expression: "Meiying is a male."
A male?
A grown man with the code name Meiying?
Is this taking the effeminate route, or purely for the purpose of confusing people?
"What is suspicious about this Meiying?"
Samuel asked.
Matsumoto Maki explained: "Some time ago, the Ten Rings Gang's Razor Fist and Death Dealer failed to forcibly buy the Super Soldier Serum, and since then, many suspicious guys have appeared in Madripoor in batches to secretly investigate us."
"We suspect they are from the Ten Rings Gang."
Razor Fist and Death Dealer both appeared in Sanji's movie, the former fought with Sanji on the bus and stole the necklace Sanji's mother left him.
The latter was also Sanji's enlightenment and sparring Master when he was a child!
Before Samuel and White Queen traveled through time, Wen had sought White Queen to forcibly buy the Super Soldier Serum, but now it had changed to Razor Fist and Death Dealer.
This indicated that Wen had survived.
Although he no longer had the Ten Rings, he still firmly held the position of the Ten Rings Gang's boss.
Furthermore, the Ten Rings Gang had not disbanded.
If it hadn't disbanded, it wouldn't need to be rebuilt, and if it didn't need to be rebuilt, the Super Soldier Serum wouldn't be as important to Wen, so he naturally wouldn't need to come in person.
...
The Ten Rings Gang, which had been operating for over a thousand years and had not disbanded, its power should not be underestimated!
"Is this Meiying related to the Ten Rings Gang?"
Samuel asked.
Matsumoto Maki nodded: "Very related!"
"Meiying is the young gang Master of the Ten Rings Gang."
The young gang Master of the Ten Rings Gang?
Isn't that Wen's son?
Holy crap!
He had snatched Suzy, and this World's Sanji and Xu Xialing.
As a result, Wen turned around and produced another son, Meiying!
"Does Wen have a daughter?" Samuel asked Matsumoto Maki curiously.
If he also had a daughter, Samuel could only shout 666, as he was destined to have both sons and daughters!
Matsumoto Maki thought for a moment and said uncertainly, "He... he seems to really have a daughter."
"..."
666, he really does have a daughter!
Matsumoto Maki recalled, "I heard that a long, long time ago, Wen had a daughter named Zheng Baoyu, who became immortal like Wen after consuming a spiritual elixir."
"At first, she followed Wen, conquering everywhere, but later for some unknown reason, she left Wen and became his enemy."
"After that, there was no more news."
"There are rumors that she was killed by Wen, and there are also rumors that she joined an intelligence organization in another country."
"In short, her whereabouts are unknown, and news about her has gradually been forgotten."
