The Arrival of Naruto in the Marvel Universe

Chapter 18: Chapter 018: Wesley



Charles saw that they were busy and didn't want to disturb them. He headed to the front desk, opened the drawer where the car keys were stored, and looked at the several car keys inside.

Charles said, "Iruka, I'll take the Porsche from the garage for now."

"Master, those cars were bought by you, so feel free to drive any of them."

Charles waved his hand, then left the agency and went to the backyard garage. He looked at the bulky Porsche SUV in front of him, shook his head, feeling that it wasn't as stylish as his own Mercedes. He wondered how long it would take to repair his car.

Without dwelling on it too much, he opened the car door, started the engine, and prepared to head back to Chrysler Building.

Since there wasn't much going on for the moment, he planned to return and refine his chakra. After all, nothing could compare to the joy of improving one's strength.

...

In the evening, after Rock Lee and Uchiha Sasuke completed their mission, they unexpectedly returned to Charles's agency together. Upon entering, they found Iruka and Ginny waiting for them, looking puzzled. They asked, "Is there a new mission?"

Iruka spoke up, "Yes, a new mission, a B-rank mission."

Rock Lee clenched his fists and looked up at the ceiling, exclaiming, "Youth! Leave this high-level mission to me, Rock Lee!"

Finishing his words, he struck a classic pose and extended his arm, giving a thumbs-up to Iruka and Ginny.

Over the past year, Ginny thought she had become accustomed to Rock Lee's antics, which she considered a form of performance art.

But seeing Rock Lee's behavior like this again made her feel awkward.

"Idiot!"

Sasuke, who was on the side, spoke in a calm tone, "Iruka-sensei said it's a B-rank mission, so it's definitely a team mission. A Genin like you can't handle it alone."

Upon hearing that it was a team mission, Rock Lee didn't show any signs of disappointment. On the contrary, his fighting spirit was even higher.

"Lee, Sasuke, come here. Let me first explain the mission details. This time, it's a protection mission involving a client who might be targeted by assassins," Iruka said, motioning for them to gather around.

The four of them began discussing the mission, quickly devising a solid plan.

...

The next day-

After a night of training, Charles had finished refining his chakra.

He opened the system interface and selected the daily check-in.

Ding! Check-in successful, earned 200 reputation points!

He then clicked on the task assembly section and saw that both Uchiha Sasuke's and Rock Lee's tasks were marked as completed. He clicked to collect the rewards.

He received 400 reputation points and 10,000 copper coins as rewards. Afterward, he selected to submit the task scroll he had brought back the previous day.

Quickly, after the task was assessed, the mission to eliminate the Assassin Brotherhood was rated as an A-rank mission.

The rewards were even more substantial: 5000 reputation points, 500,000 copper coins, and an exquisite treasure chest.

The exquisite treasure chest contained random rewards such as reputation points, gold coins, summon scrolls, and A/B level ninja fragments.

Compared to a regular treasure chest, the rewards inside an exquisite treasure chest were better. As for the mysterious treasure chest rewards from S-rank missions, Charles hadn't yet come across them.

Glancing at his account, he had 496 reputation points, 2.21 million copper coins, 0 gold coins, and 5 ninja recruitment scrolls.

The glaring 0 was still as prominent as ever, just like his VIP0 status. Charles closed the system interface, stood up, and began preparing some equipment, such as attaching an explosive tag to a shuriken.

After all, the textile factory was a sizable place with numerous employees. Carrying shuriken with explosive tags could serve as effective makeshift bombs.

The explosive tags provided by the system were all high-quality ones, with an explosion radius of three meters. With his Uchiha shuriken throwing technique, they became accurately guided bombs.

As Charles began preparing his combat tools, on the other side, Iruka's team had already set off.

At this moment, outside Wesley's house, in a concealed location under a bridge, Sasuke spoke softly through his earpiece, "The target has appeared and is currently at the workplace ahead."

"Follow the target, Sasuke, and don't let him notice you."

"Lee, keep a constant watch on the surroundings of the target to prevent any unexpected incidents."

"Got it!" x2

"Wow, he nearly got hit by a car. This guy is really clumsy."

In a room, Iruka was currently overseeing the team's actions. He turned to Ginny and asked, "When should we approach him and tell him that we're here to protect him on behalf of his father?"

"Let's wait until he gets off work, and then the two of us can approach him."

Iruka complained, "This guy is so clueless and careless. I'm worried that he might not die from an assassination but from some accident like a car crash."

"It might be better if we provide close protection or even take him back to the agency directly."

Ginny smiled, "Captain Iruka, let's stick to the plan."

The group soon followed the target, Wesley, to the building where he worked. They were currently observing his every move from a building outside the main office.

Time passed quickly, and evening arrived.

After finishing work, Wesley left the company building and went to an ATM machine to withdraw some money. Unfortunately, his bank card had less than $20 in it.

Just as Wesley was about to complain, two figures suddenly appeared on his left and right.

Startled, Wesley immediately raised his hands and even avoided looking at the people beside him. He quickly said, "Hey, guys, I'm broke. I don't have any money on me, not even $20."

"Please don't hurt me!"

Seeing Wesley's fearful reaction, Iruka remained silent. Ginny, on the other hand, spoke up, "Wesley, we mean no harm."

Hearing the voice of a woman, Wesley finally dared to turn his head slightly and saw a blonde beauty. Feeling slightly reassured, he asked, "Do I know you?"

Ginny stared at Wesley and said seriously, "We were hired by your father to protect you."

Upon hearing the word "father," Wesley visibly froze for a moment. Then his eyebrows furrowed, and he slowly said, "My father abandoned me the week I was born."

"Your father is a world-class assassin. After you were born, he didn't want you to lead a life like his, one centered around killing and being killed."

"However, a group of people has targeted you. They plan to use you to threaten your father. That's why your father hired us to ensure your safety."

"What?"

Wesley's face was full of disbelief. "Impossible, are you sure you're not mistaking me for someone else?"

Ginny took out a photo from her pocket, showed it to Wesley, and then compared it to his face. She said, "No mistake!"

"Besides, I know your father. You two actually have quite a resemblance."
