17 Chapter 17
Settling Sentry into the healing chamber so he could rest easily, the team gathered in the conference room to take it what had happened today.
Magneto was dead so one threat was completely erased.
Juggernaught was dead, another threat completely taken down.
Two good news in a row but then worse news came into view.
Aliens with killer mentality have taken residence and they can't take them out without much preparation and risks.
A threat to the planet exists and they don't where it is.
The bad news overwhelmed any good news for the group as the duo killed weren't planetary threats.
Bruce had already excused himself so only three of them were left.
"Do you really trust him? This world is ours and he seems intent on pushing his beliefs down our throat. I can see him massacre a lot of people soon, are you sure about this?" Tony said as he took a sip from the bottle
He needed some alcohol into his system.
"I have talked to him for a long time and I mean at least 20 hours. It was a long discussion about casual things, magic, chakra, and ideologies.
The man is well learned and intelligent. He is a hard worker and puts others before him. He doesn't have to do this but he does it as he believes it is his duty.
He enjoys simple things in life and as you can see just a playful person most of the time.
His beliefs are built through experience and his desire to save the world from chaos and disharmony. Unlike us he has seen wars and the affects they had on people.
He has experienced the pain from all angles just so he could understand people.
Not just through others, he also walked different lives using his abilities and experienced them personally.
From what I have seen and felt from him, I believe he is the right person to lead others. We are guardians from evil but in the end we are not leaders.
Even you have to acknowledge that a lot of the problems your team faces are a result of humanities darkness. I am handling outer threats but there are times danger from inside comes up to mess everything.
How many times has this world been almost destroyed because people can't just work together and sabotage each other?
I think we can let him try and lead this world if the people want him. We can always stop him together later if anything went wrong.
We also need his help in finding these threats and fighting them. You know, he could just abandon us and let us weaken the enemy for him so understand all angles here and don't let your emotions decide for you."
Strange explained his view on this topic as Naruto was a man that he had connected spiritually, meaning there was no lie between them.
No one in the world had ever done this kind of thing but Naruto did it just to build trust.
This gesture had touched him more than anything as it was more than just letting someone touch your heart.
It was the reason for his belief in Naruto.
"Will he really be a good ruler? Will he take it slowly if we want him to listen to the people?" Steve asked
"Steve, are you serious?" Tony was so shocked that the bottle slipped from his hand and he wet his clothes
"Tony, I don't know what you think about me in the years we have worked together but you know I serve the people not the government.
I had been young and blind so I didn't notice.
I had been powerless so I could only do the minimum and I did the same now.
I am not blind now and I can see that the world isn't black and white. I know what our country has done, and I know how many evil things it has allowed in the name of development or research.
It pains me so much to see it happening but our words are ignored. I have written letters and done what I could with my position but the affect is minimum so if there is a better option then why not. Does it matter if he is an outsider if the people can live a better life?"
Tony shook his head, "Am I hearing this right? You are going to risk our country because Strange trusts this guy."
"Yes, do you not trust him?���
"You have barely known this guy."
"Actually to be clear, I trust Naruto more than any other person as he allowed our souls to communicate on a personal level. It means I know all his feelings at that moment while he conversed with me. You can't lie in this kind of setting so everything was the truth."
Tony sat back down and stared at the ceiling, this was getting too troublesome. Everything had been much easier but now here they were deciding whether a monarch should take over the world or not.
Tony wasn't stupid either as the government had been doing shady things and some of them almost got him killed.
Even now they were hungry for his research and had already taken some of it.
There was no trust here at all, only idiots would blindly trust the government but this was a major issue.
Taking into account all the shit that came from the government even after all they had done, Tony looked at them and sighed, "Fine, we let him win the people over before going with it.
He needs to take it slowly and build it normally without using some mind control. If the people want him then we won't stop him from taking over.
We will need to inform other groups as well of the recent developments and I will get to working on the counter measures since he gave me more data for accurate development but who will move around with the man to see if he isn't messing around."
"I will go with him and see if he actually good for the people or not since both of you are going to get busy." Steve said as he did trust Strange but wanted see the proof with his own eyes
"I will inform him about our decision so that he won't walk into the White House in the morning and thanks for listening to my words." Strange said as he got up and vanished leaving the duo
"Once again it's just the two of us, want to drink away the night?"
"Just this once, even I am feeling dizzy from the development." Steve said as he got up and got some bottles and glasses
----------------------------
The next morning at the Xavier Institute the children were in an excited mood and everyone was enjoying themselves.
"Why did you do it?"
"Do what?" Naruto asked as he looked at Jean as he was training Bobby in the early morning along with Rogue, Kitty, Cyclops and Nightcrawler
"Don't play coy with me?" Jean said in anger as she attacked him that it surprised Naruto
It was a result of her newly unlocked powers so she was being unstable at the moment.
"Wow, just wow. You actually had the backbone to attack me, Hahaha." Naruto chuckled as he balanced her attack with his and slowly pushed her down
"Why would you shift every ones gender? All the kids are freaking out right now." Jean grit her teeth as the ground beneath her cratered while she was pushing back, the power hidden deep had been unleashed and now it was growing stronger every day
"But there reactions were so much fun and you missed the part where I made some of them into fighting squirrels." Naruto replied with a chuckle as he walked closer while hitting Rogue with Bobby and kicking Kurt who was also laughing
They had worked on this thing together and enjoyed it in the early morning.
Jean looked at him and thought about what happened yesterday with Blob, "Can you not play around with other people's body like that, what if they got stuck?"
She calmed her nerves and reasoned with him as his intentions weren't malicious.
"Jean, I would never harm innocents. The kids enjoyed it that's why I did it. Your reaction was unwarranted as I have tested all my powers millions of times so nothing could go wrong. Now because I don't like people attacking me like that so this is your punishment." Naruto said in a gentle tone as he held Jean down with his telekinesis and his hand caressed the beautiful red hair that turned into orange with his command
Jean stared at him, looking into his eyes and the other's feelings.
"Sorry, my mind just latched onto the worst possibilities. Jean muttered and the pressure lifted but the training was just getting started so she was sent crashing into others by a surprise attack
"Training has just started so don't get distracted" Naruto muttered as he picked her swiftly and threw her against Kurt that attacked his back, sending both kids flying
The other kids watched with amazement as the team played with such a monster and wondered if they were just over reacting or it was the right thing to stay away from him when he had shown great results as a teacher.
"No way am I going to join them. Mister Uzumaki is a cool guy but his training is insane. I would take Mister Logan."
"Yeah, just looking at them fighting feels so painful."
"I shudder every time I remember the scene of Cyclops losing his leg."
"Damn, why did you have to remind me?"
"Kids, go to your rooms and get ready for the classes." Storm walked towards the group of kids watching the training session and they ran way while she glanced towards the new teacher
She had yet to talk to him as he didn't was a very busy man.
"I am also interested in talking to you so let's get some tea and talk." Naruto appeared beside her while a wood clone with part of his mind fought the kids
Ororo Munroe, also known as Storm, was the descendant of an ancient line of African priestesses, all of whom have white hair, blue eyes, and the potential to wield magic. Born Ororo Munroe, her mother, N'Daré, was the princess of a tribe in Kenya, who married the American photojournalist, David Munroe, and moved with him to Manhattan, where Ororo was born.
When Ororo was six months old, she and her parents moved to Cairo, Egypt and, at the age of five, a plane crash destroyed their home. Ororo's parents were killed, but she survived, buried under rubble near her mother's body. This traumatizing effect left Ororo with the severe claustrophobia that still afflicts her today. Ororo managed to escape the rubble of her shattered home with nothing but the tattered clothes on her back and her mother's ancestral ruby. Homeless and orphaned, Ororo was found by a gang of street urchins who took her to their master, Achmed El Gibár. Achmed trained Ororo in the arts of thievery and she soon became his prize pupil, excelling in picking both pockets and locks. During her time in Cairo, Ororo picked the pocket of an American tourist. The man proved no easy mark, however, as he was Charles Xavier, a powerful mutant telepath who used his abilities to stop the theft.
She worked under the Shadow King, a being of darkness that has slipped into many realities and has vessels do his bidding that are generally of the chaotic kind.
When Charles established the Academy she was recruited and by then Ororo had been the guardian of her tribe. Her powers to control the weather has been awakened and grown over the years.
Her life had never been easy and was filled with conflict but this dark skinned beauty clad in white broke through all obstacles to stand before him with a powerful will.
Naruto was aware of all of their backgrounds as he was helping them and to help properly you needed to know the full picture.
She was also one of the people not using their powers to the full potential, limited by their own imagination.
"I have half an hour to before class so I can accompany you Mister Uzumaki." Storm was also very much curious about the man
He didn't waste time so she figured he had something important to share.
