"Ichiro!"
Watching Ken Ichiro also sealed in that rock sphere, Miss Mariko's eyes reddened.
After all, she and Ken Ichiro had grown up together since childhood, so how could there be no feelings between them?
"They moved first to kill me. I also gave them a chance, but they refused, so I could only deal with them this way.
Ms. Miss Mariko, I don't think you want your Grandpa to continue making mistakes like this, do you?"
Turning his head, Adam showed Miss Mariko a slightly intimidating smile, and Miss Mariko was so startled by this smile that she took two steps back.
"Of course..."
In fact, she knew Adam was right. The cause was Grandpa's ingratitude and greed for Logan's healing ability, even calculating his own granddaughter into it.
Ken Ichiro had never been soft on Adam and his people either, every move was deadly.
Although she had feelings for Ken Ichiro, what right did she have to ask Adam and the others to show mercy and spare Ken Ichiro and his subordinates?
Moreover, when it came down to it, Logan and Adam were her saviors; otherwise, she might have already died at the hands of her own father.
However, seeing Adam raise his hand to kill the entire Village and so many Ninja, and then seeing Adam turn his head and smile at her, along with his question, made her feel as if something bad would happen immediately if she dared to refute him.
Her feelings for Adam were quite complex after learning that he had killed her father and fiancé and blown up her home.
And the way he instantly saved her with a single move, his confident smile, and powerful aura, suddenly made her feel a slight flutter in her heart for him.
But now, she felt a little more fear towards Adam.
"Alright, stop scaring her."
Wolverine patted Adam on the shoulder, then smiled at Miss Mariko:
"Adam is a very good person. He was just joking with you earlier, don't take it to heart."
He had already experienced Adam's decisive action during their first meeting.
At that time, Adam was only twelve years old, and he showed no mercy when killing Stryker's soldiers.
He felt that Adam was quite similar to him in this regard, because he, too, never showed mercy to his enemies.
He was also very clear about Adam's kindness: going to the city at night to fight crime, establishing the League of Heroes to help impoverished Superheroes, making the city more orderly, and ensuring Mutants were no longer discriminated against.
He also fought with all his might to defeat Apocalypse and Magneto, saving the World.
"Ms. Miss Mariko is the future Yashida Family Head, and she's not that easily scared. Let's go meet Mr. Shida Shiro. I'm actually quite curious how he plans to take your healing ability."
Adam pointed to the research institute halfway up the mountain and led the way forward.
"Adam, your moves seemed a bit heavy today, didn't they?"
Wolverine followed, asking somewhat curiously.
With Adam's strength, those few small fries just now could have been taken down with one slap each. There was no need for such a large display, nor was it necessary to kill them all without leaving any survivors.
"Hmm, perhaps deep down, I still dislike this country, so I tend to be a bit heavier-handed with its people.
Besides, people need to understand not to mess with my League of Heroes's people easily, or the consequences will be severe."
Adam looked up at the sky. He knew that at this very moment, Nick Fury was definitely monitoring the area.
With him, a human nuclear bomb, leaving New York and coming here, Nick Fury's vigilance towards him meant he wouldn't be left unmonitored, to prevent any uncontrollable incidents.
For someone like Nick Fury, who is sometimes overly confident, it's necessary to give him a wake-up call from time to time, to make him understand his place and not do things he'll deeply regret.
Wolverine nodded, half-understanding. Sometimes he felt that Adam was like Professor X, saying things he didn't quite grasp.
"We're here, let's go in!"
Arriving at the entrance of the research building, faced with a high-tech door requiring fingerprint verification, Adam pointed his hand and released an Alohomora, and the door immediately opened.
Alohomora, a rule-based magic, can open not only normal locks but also electronic locks.
"It's quite empty."
Walking into the research building, everyone found it very quiet, with seemingly no one around.
The seven-story research building had a hollow tower design, and looking up from the first floor, one could see most of the internal floors.
"Unnecessary people should have been dismissed or silenced beforehand."
Adam sensed the aura within the research building and found only two living auras present.
According to Shida Shiro's plan, today was the day to capture Logan and extract his healing ability. So he guessed that apart from the most trusted individuals, there was no need for anyone else to remain.
If it really succeeded, the fewer people who knew about it, the better.
"Boom!"
Just then, a silver figure suddenly leaped down from the seventh floor, landing in front of everyone.
It was a silver samurai, nearly four meters tall.
"It seems Ken Ichiro and his people failed. What a useless bunch. In the end, I have to resolve this myself."
The Silver Samurai slowly drew the long sword from his waist.
Hearing what the Silver Samurai said, Miss Mariko's pupils immediately constricted:
"Grandpa, is it really you? You're really still alive!"
"Miss Mariko, it's me. You stay there.
Once Grandpa deals with these people and gains Logan's healing ability to restore his youth, Grandpa will lead the Family to the entire World, making the Yashida Family the number one Family in the World.
And you will still be Grandpa's most beloved granddaughter."
Shida Shiro's ambitious voice, filled with a hint of madness, came from the Silver Samurai's mouth.
After confirming all this from her Grandpa's mouth, Miss Mariko finally couldn't help but shed two lines of tears. She never expected that the Grandpa she so admired and trusted would end up like this.
"Grandpa, what you're doing is wrong. Please stop!"
"Stop? Hahaha, impossible. I want eternal life! Whoever dares to stop me from gaining eternal life, I will kill them!"
Shida Shiro leaped forcefully, wielding his massive katana, and slashed towards them.
Wolverine extended his claws and leaped up to meet him:
"I shouldn't have saved you back then. Since it's a mistake I made, let me finish you!"
"You go help him, he can't fight him alone."
Adam, who was originally preparing to act, saw Wolverine make his move and then retracted his hand, giving Lady Deathstrike a look.
Shida Shiro's silver armor was entirely made of Adamantium, making it very difficult to destroy with brute force.
Coupled with the two katanas on him that could heat up and cut through Adamantium, Wolverine alone would indeed have a tough time.
But with the help of Lady Deathstrike, who was highly skilled and also Sage, and their good teamwork, the chances of winning were very high.
