In the afternoon, Jaffa, Steve, Carter, Howard, Phillips, and some other pioneers boarded the plane back to China.
After returning to the country, Phillips also applied for Jaffa and Steve's promotion to the military. Three days later, the military decided that Jaffa would be promoted from a lieutenant to a captain, and Steve, who was already a captain, would be promoted to a major. As for the issue of promotion, the military specially ordered Steve to set up a separate assault team. Steve would be the captain, and Jaffa would be the vice-captain.
Jaffa didn't express his opinion on this. However, Jaffa couldn't return to the team. Howard's research had reached a critical stage and could be completed at any time. Jaffa, who was looking forward to it, was reluctant to leave.
Although Steve didn't know what kind of cooperation Jaffa and Howard had, he expressed his understanding. Then, after Jaffa gave Steve the location of Hydra's bases, Jaffa devoted himself to the research with Howard.
A month later, Jaffa received the freshly made weapon and nodded in satisfaction. In Jaffa's hand was a long and thin sword. It had a round handle and no guard. It looked like Sasuke's sword in Naruto. Looking at the smiling Jaffa, Edward said helplessly,""I really don't understand what you're thinking. Your Adamantium dagger is very strong, almost as strong as Steve's Vibrant Gold shield, yet you're willing to melt it and add other materials.”
As he spoke, Edward picked up the information in his hand and flipped through it."In order to forge your longsword, we consumed the energy in four energy chambers. This is enough to supply two years of civilian energy in New York!”The more Edward spoke, the more indignant his expression became.
"Most importantly, I've wasted a month of your time. I don't know how many girls you've had sex with, right?" Jaffa suddenly interrupted.”
Howard was stunned when he heard Jaffa's words. He immediately said,"Of course. Don't you know how many lonely beauties in Brooks are waiting for me to comfort them?”Howard's expression was calm as he spoke. He didn't look embarrassed at all.
"Of course I know!" "That's why I've freed you now. You can go comfort those beauties now." Jaffa smiled and said softly.”
Howard couldn't help but reveal a bitter expression. He said softly,""I just started studying the information you gave me about Hydra. Do you think I'm in the mood to go out and pick up girls?”
Hearing Howard's words, Jaffa laughed and gloated.""Then continue your research. I'm going back to the team! As he spoke, Jaffa raised the grass sword in his hand and chuckled."I can also try out my new weapon.”
Waving his hand lightly, Edward said without even raising his head,""Hurry up and leave my place. Don't disturb my research.”
Jaffa chuckled and left Howard's laboratory without saying anything else.
Once he left, Jaffa returned to his temporary residence, took a shower, changed into a new set of clothes, and tidied up before leaving.
Ten minutes later, Jaffa stood in front of a door. He let out a light breath and knocked on the door.
"Who is it?" As soon as he knocked on the door, a clear female voice came from the door. Then, Jaffa heard a creak and the door was opened.
The moment the door opened, Jaffa revealed a brilliant expression and chuckled."Peggy, long time no see!"
The moment he saw Jaffa, joy flashed in Kate's eyes, but it quickly disappeared. He turned around and walked into the door.
"It's been a long time indeed. I thought you and Edward were already married and living together."”
"How is that possible!" Hearing Kate's words, Jaffa hurriedly said," I just asked him to help me get my weapon." As he spoke, Jaffa picked up the grass sword in his hand and wanted to show it to Cate.
At this moment, Cate noticed the sword in Jaffa's hand. In the next moment, Cate's face turned ashen and he said coldly,""Did you bring this with you when you came to see a girl? Why? Are you afraid that I will kill you?"
Hearing Kate's words, Jaffa's face was filled with embarrassment. Only then did he realize how stupid he had done. The next moment, Jaffa hurriedly said,"Peggy, you misunderstood. I couldn't wait to see you as soon as I got the weapon. I didn't even go home. Really!" As he spoke, Jaffa tried his best to put on a sincere expression.
Looking at Jaffa's wet hair and the smell of soap on his body, Kate couldn't help but feel happy. He had to admit that Jaffa's lie was not good at all.
However, Cate wasn't really angry with Jaffa. Hearing Jaffa's words, he didn't pursue the matter further.
Following that, under the circumstances where both parties were interested, the two of them chatted happily. As they chatted, the two of them talked about Steve. Jaffa asked curiously,"I wonder how Steve is doing now.”
"Steve?" Hearing Jaffa's words, Kate smiled and said softly,""Steve and his Howling Assault Team's reputation in the United States can be said to be at its peak. They have already destroyed several Hydra strongholds. Speaking of which, you're the vice-captain of the Howling Assault Team. You don't even know the situation of your own team.”
Smiling awkwardly, Jaffa said helplessly,""Didn't I put all my energy into it?”Jaffa pointed at the longsword in the corner and said softly,""I named it the Dragon Soaring Sword!" Soaring Dragon was the name given to Jaffa's grass sword.
As he spoke, Jaffa seemed to have thought of something and suddenly said,"Oh right, where are Steve and the others now? I think we should get together to celebrate the return of my incompetent vice-captain.”Jaffa couldn't help but laugh.
Calmly looking at Jaffa, Cater couldn't help but smile and softly said,""A few days ago, we got the whereabouts of Zola, the chief scientist of Hydra. Steve and the others went to capture him!”
" What?!" Hearing Kate's words, Jaffa was stunned. He stood up abruptly and said in surprise,""To capture Zola?"
