Behind the Scenes in Naruto World

Chapter 812: Marvel Extra (5)

2022.

The Avengers' time travel experiment went very smoothly.

Dr. Strange, Bruce Banner, Thanos, and Steve Rogers, as the first batch of members, went to the Battle of New York in 2012.

Because according to their judgment, the greatest threat, Uehara Naraku, was still just an ordinary person, and no one could stop them from stealing the Infinity Stones from that battle.

Result...

This batch of members got a beating from Uehara Naraku.

"Uehara Naraku is a fraud!"

After Steve Rogers returned, the first thing he did was to inform everyone of the fact, "Uehara Naraku's power has always been very strong! He has never been an ordinary person!"

"Exactly..."

Bruce Banner was also injured all over and explained in a low voice, "We always thought Uehara became a superhuman because of the energy of the Cosmic Cube... No, he has always had extraordinary power, and the Battle of New York was just his disguise!"

"..."

Everyone couldn't help but look at each other.

Nick Fury couldn't help but furrow his brow and whispered, "It looks like our next move needs to avoid Uehara Naraku's appearance..."

"And he has always been the leader of Akatsuki Organization..."

Steve Rogers immediately brought up another troublesome matter, "That means, all of the organization's actions are commanded by him!"

"...this guy..."

Nick Fury was a little speechless.

Everyone present was also speechless.

Because everyone had contact with Uehara Naraku, and they all knew that it was because Uehara Naraku posed as an intern for the Akatsuki Organization that he could get many conveniences on Earth... Otherwise, Uehara Naraku could not have directly become the Director of S.H.I.E.L.D. as a Level 7 agent.

That jerk...

He was too good at playing, wasn't he?

Originally, everyone present thought Uehara Naraku's actions were bad enough, but after the first time travel, they found that they seemed to have underestimated Uehara Naraku's cunningness...

Uehara Naraku...

Is he really the leader of the Akatsuki Organization?

Only Tony Stark fell into contemplation.

His father Howard Stark had a good relationship with the Akatsuki Organization, and even trusted them more than S.H.I.E.L.D., handing over his will to them...

Tony Stark recalled that when Uehara Naraku was still a special agent monitoring him, he had desperately concealed Akatsuki's affairs in front of him...

When the Akatsuki Organization came to Earth...

Tony Stark also remembered how he had spoken so well of the Akatsuki Organization in front of Uehara Naraku and others at that time. At that time, no one believed in the righteousness of the Akatsuki Organization more than Tony Stark...

Tony Stark even vaguely recalled that he had shamelessly introduced the Akatsuki Organization's situation to Uehara Naraku...

This is too frustrating, isn't it?

Now recalling these stupid things, Tony Stark felt like he wanted to commit suicide on the spot... What was that jerk Uehara Naraku thinking at that time?

Wait a minute...

His father Howard Stark's will?

Tony Stark's mood suddenly became not so good, was the will that once affected his view of the Akatsuki Organization was really left by his father?

This answer...

Perhaps he could only find it himself.

"Go to 1970."

Tony Stark remembered a timeline. He didn't care whether the Akatsuki Organization would appear in that timeline, and said solemnly:, "The Cosmic Cube... the Space Stone must be there... I want to see how much mischief Uehara Naraku has done!"

"If Uehara Naraku appears in that timeline?"

Natasha Romanoff quickly threw out a difficult question, "Based on the current situation, he has been the leader of the Akatsuki Organization for a long time, which also means we cannot determine his exact age and the exact time he appeared on Earth..."

"Uehara Naraku is good at hiding and deceiving."

Tony Stark immediately answered, "If Uehara Naraku really appears in that timeline, what identity will he appear in? We have enough Pym Particles. Besides seizing the Stones, we can also see if that guy has any other conspiracies..."

A light flashed in Tony Stark's brain, and he suddenly said, "Wait a minute... why didn't Uehara Naraku solve you or to be exact us, the resistors... he has the strength, but he didn't kill or imprison us..."

Thanos thought for less than a second and gave a conclusion, "No matter what his conspiracy is, we only have one plan."

Now...

They had no more choices.

Nick Fury glanced discreetly at Thanos, and reached for his pager while speaking, "Let's discuss who will go to retrieve the Stones..."

To be honest, Nick Fury didn't trust Thanos.

Now that they knew Uehara Naraku had always been the leader of the Akatsuki Organization, it also meant that their previous method of trying to dismantle Uehara Naraku's rule through the Akatsuki Organization was not feasible anymore. They might as well call back Captain Marvel...

Moreover...

They must be wary of Thanos.

The first batch of members who traveled through time got a beating from Uehara Naraku, but they also retrieved the first Time Stone from the past timeline, which indicated that the plan was successful.

Once they got all six Infinity Stones...

Nick Fury doubted whether Thanos would have any thoughts. It might be a good idea to recall Carol Danvers at this time, which could also serve as insurance.

Indeed, Nick Fury's approach was correct.

Even though Thanos was now cooperating with the Avengers, it didn't mean he had given up on his ideals.

Because almost everyone present had touched one of the Infinity Stones, they quickly summed up all the timelines when the Stones appeared.

First.

Avoid conflicts with Uehara Naraku from the past timeline.

Second.

Avoid any actions that could disrupt the timeline.

Finally.

Come back alive.

However, anything gained ultimately required a price.

Except for the other stones that were retrieved safely, the team that went to retrieve the Soul Stone still paid the price of life, and Natasha Romanoff ultimately sacrificed herself.

The occurrence of this event...

Brought great grief to the members of the Avengers.

"Let's discuss how to deal with Uehara Naraku..."

Thanos didn't care much about Natasha Romanoff's sacrifice, and he continued softly, "This is the price I mentioned earlier... Perhaps there is still room for redemption because Uehara Naraku once saved my sacrificed daughter."

Thanos' gaze fell on the six Infinity Stones, "With the power of the Infinity Stones... perhaps... it should be possible."

"Let's discuss it first..."

Nick Fury looked at everyone present, his gaze fixed on Thanos' empty Infinity Gauntlet, "Let's decide who will use these Stones... it seems that there are not many choices, only Mr. Thanos and Dr. Bruce Banner are the most suitable, right?"

Because they had the Infinity Gauntlet...

They didn't need to make one.

But giving all the Infinity Stones to Thanos, the former galactic overlord, somehow made people feel uneasy. After all, this guy's goal was to eliminate half of the universe's life...

"Except for me, no one else can harness their power."

Thanos looked at everyone present, stepped forward, and said, "No one in the entire universe understands how to use the Stones more than I do..."

"Mr. Thanos, please tell us the plan first!"

Nick Fury looked at Thanos and said softly, "If Mr. Thanos holds these Stones, how do you plan to deal with Uehara Naraku?"

"Snap my fingers."

Thanos raised his palm and snapped his fingers, saying in a deep voice, "There's nothing the power of the six Infinity Stones can't solve..."

After Thanos finished speaking, he glanced at everyone present and noticed the pager in Nick Fury's hand. He recognized it as the device used to contact Captain Marvel.

This was troublesome...

Just at this moment, Loki suddenly spoke up, "Although wielding six Infinity Stones makes dealing with anyone as easy as snapping your fingers... Uehara Naraku also possesses six Infinity Stones, which doesn't guarantee one hundred percent success."

"...then what should we do?"

Thanos' gaze turned to Loki.

"Then we can only fight for it..."

Loki chuckled lightly, then turned to Thanos and said, "If the initial approach fails to handle Uehara Naraku, then our strongest individual should bear all the Infinity Stones. They must use their full powers to confront Uehara Naraku in a fight to the death..."

"But..."

"I suggest that anyone can try snapping their fingers first."

"Using the power of the Infinity Stones will deplete the user's life... If the first person fails, the second must ensure they are in perfect condition to wield the Infinity Stones and confront Uehara Naraku."

"..."

Everyone present looked at each other.

Even Thanos couldn't help but look at Loki. It had to be said that what Loki said was very advantageous to him. Perhaps it could allow him to obtain all the Infinity Stones without shedding blood...

But who would be the first person to sacrifice themselves?

"Let me do it..."

Bruce Banner raised his hand and stood up. He walked toward Thanos and reached out for the Infinity Gauntlet, "I know I can never be Uehara's opponent... let me be the first sacrifice!"

"Banner!"

"Bruce!"

"Dr. Banner!"

"..."

The other Avengers couldn't help but look at Bruce Banner.

Because they had just sacrificed Bruce Banner's lover, Natasha Romanoff, were they going to sacrifice Bruce Banner again?

Bruce Banner shook his head, his gaze falling upon Thanos's Infinity Gauntlet. "There's no one more suitable than me because no one understands the gamma radiation of the Infinity Stones better than I do. Perhaps this is destiny. I don't want to waste Natasha's sacrifice. I want to know their secrets..."

"..."

Everyone fell silent.

"Let's start..."

Bruce Banner reached for the Infinity Gauntlet, carefully put it on his arm, and said softly, "Everyone hand over the Infinity Stones to me... this will finally come to an end."
