Nick Fury was looking forward to seeing Peter being pinned down and beaten by Captain America.
But reality disappointed him.
Not only was Peter not subdued, but he became more excited the more he fought!
He found Captain America to be a perfect sparring partner!
Daredevil was also a master of technique, but his physical fitness was too weak, and he only fought street gang members.
Plus, he always adhered to the no-kill principle.
So, while he had some skill, Peter felt somewhat restricted when fighting him.
Simply put... he was afraid of accidentally killing him with one punch!
But Captain America was different; after injecting the super soldier serum, his physical fitness was only slightly inferior to Peter's.
This allowed Peter to fight him without holding back.
Additionally, the techniques Captain America mastered were real killing techniques honed on the battlefield.
These techniques perfectly compensated for Kyougoku Makoto's shortcomings.
Although Kyougoku Makoto was a fighting genius, he was an "athlete" rather than an assassin. Therefore, while his Karate moves were exquisite, they lacked true killing blows.
With Kyougoku Makoto's monstrous fighting talent and the super reaction speed provided by the lizard serum,
Peter was like a sponge, greedily absorbing the combat experience Captain America had accumulated through countless life-and-death struggles!
Every move, every exertion of force, every combat decision Steve made was firmly imprinted in Peter's eyes and body, then quickly transformed into his own.
This also caused Peter's fighting style and techniques to evolve rapidly at a visible pace!
...Is this kid... a monster?!
On the other side, Captain America grew more alarmed the more he fought.
He could clearly feel his stiff body gradually recovering during the fight, and his strength and speed were steadily returning to their peak.
But no matter how much he improved, the young man opposite him could always perfectly overpower him!
However, amidst his alarm, he couldn't help but feel some admiration.
Because several times, he clearly felt that when Peter couldn't block his attacks, the strength in Peter's fists would suddenly increase a few points.
But after forcing him back, in the next exchange, that strength would mysteriously recede, maintaining a level just enough to contend with him.
What did this indicate?
It indicated that the young man had actually been suppressing his own strength and speed.
He wasn't trying to show off by stepping on him.
Instead... he was genuinely helping him with his rehabilitation training!
With this thought, Captain America's gaze towards Peter softened considerably.
To be honest, when he first met Peter, his impression of him wasn't very good.
But after a round of fighting, he gradually realized that this young man... although a bit sharp-tongued and arrogant in his actions, was essentially a good person.
Especially... Clang!
Peter's fist heavily struck Captain America's shield, and the violent force caused both of them to subconsciously retreat two or three steps.
The moment they separated, they both spoke almost in unison:
"I can do this all day!"
At that instant, Captain America's eyes lit up.
You kid, you even said my catchphrase. Aren't you my fan?!
With this thought, Captain America's gaze towards Peter completely changed.
It was the loving and appreciative look of an elder seeing an outstanding junior!
Nick Fury, huddled in the corner, saw Captain America's expression and couldn't help but slap his forehead.
It's over... it's all over... even Captain America can't do anything about this brat!
And looking at Captain America's expression, it's clear he's developed feelings!
Damn it!
Is there still justice?!
Is there still law?!
Why can this brat achieve this level without even using magic?!
Is there really anything on Earth that can restrain him?
Peter didn't pay attention to Nick Fury's changing expression; he just looked at Captain America and asked:
"Captain, want to continue?"
Feeling the sore muscles in his arms, Captain America smiled and shook his head:
"No need, your treatment is very effective. I feel like I've reached my optimal state, and..."
At this point, Captain America paused slightly, but still sincerely praised:
"I'm no match for you. If that had been on the battlefield just now, I might have already died."
If Peter and Captain America's fight had merely made Nick Fury feel suffocated, then now, Captain America's personal "official certification" was equivalent to nailing the coffin shut!
There was absolutely no hope left!
He couldn't control Peter and could only accept all the "unequal treaties" as Peter said!
No!!!
While Nick Fury was immersed in the BGM of "Snowflakes fluttering, north wind howling~," Peter had quietly walked up to him:
"Mr. Nick Fury, I've already taken care of the two things you asked me to help with. Now, it's time to pay up."
Nick Fury looked at Peter as if facing a formidable enemy. Although he knew he was no match for him, he still spoke fiercely:
"I'll say this upfront: S.H.I.E.L.D. has no money. If you want money from me, forget about it!"
"Don't worry, I have other people in mind for making money."
Peter patted his shoulder, then stroked his chin and said:
"For this first payment..."
He surveyed the laboratory, then pointed at Captain America and said:
"I want Captain America..."
"You wish!" Nick Fury's voice changed pitch in excitement.
"Look at you, so impatient!" Peter rolled his eyes at him, then said:
"I want the uniform Captain America is wearing."
This was Captain America's original uniform, worn for 70 years after he injected the super soldier serum!
Hmm... strange, why did I emphasize 'original'?
Anyway, although this uniform wasn't made of any special material, sacrificing it to the system would definitely be super valuable!
At least it would be on the same level as the Decay Rate Algorithm manuscript.
Hearing that Peter only wanted Captain America's uniform, Nick Fury breathed a long sigh of relief.
Uniforms weren't worth much; S.H.I.E.L.D. could make dozens of them in minutes if they wanted to.
Captain America, on the side, looked at Peter with a hint of excitement in his eyes:
And you still say you're not my fan?
"As for the second payment..." Peter stared at Nick Fury's eye patch for a while, then withdrew his gaze a moment later.
Nick Fury was just a weakling, and not particularly important. This item probably wouldn't be worth much sacrifice points, and exchanging a favor for a broken eye patch simply wasn't worth it.
"I haven't thought of it yet. I'll tell you when I do!"
Nick Fury had no choice but to humbly express: "Whatever makes you happy, sir."
Not long after, Peter received Captain America's uniform. The moment his fingers touched the uniform, a prompt immediately appeared:
[Detected sacrificable dark blue item: Captain Berry's Original Uniform]
