Multiverse Mastermind: Starting in Naruto

Chapter 1053: Chapter 778: Anyway, There’s No Turning Back Now_2

Nick Fury slowly nodded, continuing: "But Uehara also believes that we have been framed, or else he wouldn’t have been helping us all along..."

"I understand."

Colonel Rhodes nodded, continuing: "If it weren’t for Uehara, perhaps Tony and I would also be treated as Hydra spies because of the former president’s assassination..."

To some extent, they shared the same fate.

Because they had all received help from Uehara Naraku.

Almost everyone present had interacted with Uehara Naraku, and almost everyone had received help from him. For this friend who had always assisted them, everyone felt grateful in their hearts.

But...

As they chatted on...

They realized something wasn’t quite right.

If Uehara Naraku had always been helping both sides, why did it come to the point where they had to fight for their lives? Especially since after the aerospace carrier’s bombardment, Uehara Naraku sent Tony Stark and James Rhodes to hunt them down.

Wakanda’s Prince T’Challa, observing keenly, spoke up first about the discrepancies: "Then... if Director Uehara Naraku knows the truth, why would he send you and this Iron Man to hunt us?"

"..."

The people present were suddenly at a loss.

"It should be to get us to contact each other."

Natasha proposed a hypothesis, continuing softly: "If Uehara hadn’t sent them out on the mission to capture us, Tony and Colonel Rhodes might find it difficult to leave the control of the World Security Council..."

This hypothesis made a lot of sense.

They subconsciously did not want to believe Uehara Naraku was the enemy.

Steve Rogers, frowning, raised some doubts: "But Uehara can tell Stark and Colonel Rhodes the truth..."

Clint raised an eyebrow, insisting on Natasha’s judgment: "Without clarifying the situation, no one can be sure what the truth really is... We can’t be sure whether Hydra truly exists among us, and maybe Uehara isn’t sure either? Captain Rogers, you haven’t completely cleared the suspicions on you regarding a possible connection to Hitler!"

"Now is not the time to discuss these things."

Nick Fury interrupted their potential argument, saying solemnly: "What we need to do now is to end this ridiculous war..."

To be honest...

More people chose to believe in Uehara Naraku.

Isn’t it obvious...

A bunch of people continuously receiving Uehara Naraku’s help finds it hard to doubt someone who has consistently aided them, especially when he has provided timely support in their times of need...

If he had done nothing, they might have already been swept up by the CIA, FBI, or agents from the World Security Council...

As for Steve Rogers’ suspicions, it was merely because he had been betrayed by his teammates too many times, so he was a bit on edge.

Until they encountered Princess Suri and the Wakanda army, most believed Uehara Naraku had intentionally saved Princess Suri and the Queen; otherwise, these royal members and the Dora Guard would have been killed due to resistance.

This explanation...

Indeed made sense.

The aerospace carrier battle group had already left Wakanda, with no aerial threats to this military force.

After everyone rallied, the mighty Wakanda army and the Avengers followed the Wakanda King T’Chaka to reclaim the royal capital.

They naturally assumed the World Security Council had left some people stationed, yet encountered no resistance as they entered the capital.

Until...

They reached the royal palace.

The Dora Guard’s warriors, intending to enter the palace to re-establish a defense line, were suddenly swept up by a strong spiritual power, ejecting them straight out the doors!

"There’s still an enemy!"

The entire Dora Guard instantly went on alert!

Except for Tony Stark, who was still cuffed, the Avengers also quickly drew their weapons since this was clearly not a power an ordinary human could have!

"Oh, that’s Wanda."

Colonel Rhodes recognized it was Wanda’s power, turning to explain: "Wanda is a new recruit to the Avengers; because of your defection, the Avengers squad suffered significant losses, so Uehara Naraku had to recruit new superpower users to maintain..."

As James Rhodes was about to continue explaining, a streak of scarlet spiritual power suddenly ensnared his body, flinging him hard against the wall!

"Watch out!"

Steve Rogers quickly lunged forward to pull Colonel Rhodes back, a serious look flashed across his face, raising his own shield!

Nick Fury, holding a pistol, shook his head and said in a low voice: "This isn’t typical Avenger behavior... she could be our enemy, or maybe someone else’s plant within the Avengers..."

"Then let’s subdue her first!"

Steve Rogers raised his shield and charged in first!

As Captain America, what Steve Rogers did most was charge ahead when trouble arose, though this had often landed him in danger...

Yet his body was driven back at a faster speed!

A streak of scarlet spiritual power directly enveloped his body, instantly smashing him through the palace walls, leaving the Captain languishing on the street!

That was awkward...

Steve Rogers hadn’t even glimpsed the enemy before being hurled out, and he clumsily supported himself to stand up, limping over to his shield.
