Chapter 246: Wolverine
The single phrase "He's lying" immediately attracted everyone's attention, though the soldiers' gazes were mostly filled with dissatisfaction.
For most people, the name "father" contained many people's emotions; this name was sacred and inviolable.
As a father, Ye Nan was willing to enter prison and break into a warship for his daughter—how much courage did that take, how deep must that love be?
But now, someone had actually come to destroy the hero in their hearts. Suddenly, everyone became hostile toward the newcomer. If he didn't provide a reasonable explanation, he would be attacked by everyone in unison.
Wolverine Logan looked at the hostile gazes from the crowd. He naturally felt it, but he knew what was going on and didn't care. As long as he exposed Ye Nan's lies, the soldiers' anger would naturally shift direction.
Logan had originally been in the warship's lounge guarding the prisoner the Professor had entrusted to him, but because he felt an unparalleled magnetic force erupting on the warship, he immediately realized that mutants were attacking. He hurried up to investigate, only to hear Ye Nan spouting nonsense, and immediately spoke up to expose the conspiracy of Ye Nan and the others.
"Wolverine Logan." Ye Nan looked at Logan, who had a crew cut and sideburns, and asked with some hesitation.
"You know me?" Logan's gaze tightened, staring fixedly at Ye Nan. If one word went wrong, he would take action and kill Ye Nan.
However, when his gaze caught the old man beside Ye Nan, he immediately sneered, "I wondered who was throwing their weight around on the warship. So it's Mr. Magneto."
"I wonder what purpose Mr. Magneto has for coming here while the Professor is away."
"It's nothing more than for the little girl the Professor kidnapped. Charles is an old friend of mine, but kidnapping someone's daughter isn't exactly honorable." Magneto said indifferently.
"Whether it's honorable or not isn't for you to say. Although the Professor kidnapping someone's daughter is indeed against morality, it is for the sake of America." Logan said decisively, "For the greater good, even I would do the same."
"That's a tough thing to say." Ye Nan suddenly interjected, "If it were your son who was kidnapped, would you still speak so prettily?"
Logan was stunned, then shook his head, "I don't have a son."
As soon as Logan's words were out, Daken immediately flew into a rage. His biological father was Logan, yet Logan had said in front of him that he had no son. This sentence was a denial of Daken. Daken was extremely dissatisfied and immediately stepped forward, wanting to teach Logan a lesson.
"Wait." Ye Nan blocked Daken, preventing him from continuing forward. "Don't be impatient; it's not time to settle scores yet."
Logan had noticed Daken when he flew into a rage. As a mutant, he had senses sharper than a beast's. Although he hadn't sensed Daken's power at the beginning, just now, he clearly sensed Daken's anger toward him.
"Who is this person? He actually bypassed my senses. Why is he so angry at me? Could it be that he has a grudge against me?"
Logan pondered in his heart. When he first saw Daken, he didn't know why, but a feeling of intimacy welled up. Regarding Daken's anger, he didn't know why, but he felt a kind of sadness.
"Mr. Wolverine, you said you don't have a son, right?" Ye Nan sneered. He had originally intended to give Duan Yan some face and not haggle with Wolverine; he had even thought about reuniting Daken and Logan. But now it seemed he had to make Logan realize some things.
"But as far as I know, you should have a son. In Japan, you and your wife gave birth to a son. Could it be that this son isn't your son? Or are you not planning to acknowledge your own son?"
As soon as Ye Nan's words were out, they immediately caused many soldiers to glare at Logan. A man without responsibility was unwelcome anywhere.
"Son?" Logan thought for a moment and said, "My son is already dead."
As soon as Logan's words were out, they immediately provoked Daken's anger. One could see two veins bulging on Daken's forehead, and he couldn't wait to take action immediately and teach Logan a lesson.
"Dead?" Ye Nan smiled eerily.
To say his son was already dead in front of his own son—Logan was truly a premium specimen. No wonder his life was so full of disasters.
"A premium life is always unusual. Daken, go clean him up." Ye Nan smiled faintly, deciding not to stop Daken anymore. "Remember, vent your anger."
As soon as Ye Nan's words were out, Daken immediately rushed over. He couldn't wait any longer; he wanted to give his father a good cleaning, let him know that he wasn't non-existent, nor was he dead—he was still alive and well, and had surpassed him.
"Want to take action and bury the truth?" Wolverine Logan sneered, flicked his hands downward, and popped out a pair of bone claws. These bone claws were the same as Daken's, except the surface of these bone claws was covered with a layer of Adamantium metal.
"It's not just you who has bone claws." Daken made the same motion as Wolverine and popped out a pair of bone claws.
"Who are you?" Wolverine Logan looked at Daken and his identical bone claws. He didn't know why, but a trace of joy welled up in his heart.
"The person who's going to beat you." Daken rushed up and threw a punch.
"You're a bit too slow to take my life." Logan also threw a punch. The two pairs of bone claws crossed in the air, emitting a 'bang' sound.
"Mr. Magneto, tell me, who will win this battle?" Ye Nan watched the battle between Daken and Logan with interest while asking Magneto beside him.
"Call me Erik." Magneto Erik smiled gently.
"Oh, Erik, what a good name." Ye Nan exclaimed insincerely, "Then, Mr. Erik, tell me, in this battle, will Daken win, or will Logan win?"
Magneto Erik was silent for a moment and said, "Probably Logan."
"Why? They are evenly matched right now." Ye Nan asked, puzzled.
In reality, he knew very well that Daken couldn't be Logan's opponent. Whether it was combat experience or the bone claws themselves, Daken was no match for Logan. After all, Logan's bone claws were cast with Adamantium alloy.
"Although they look evenly matched from the outside, Logan's claws are stronger than Daken's." Magneto said, "Look at Daken's bone claws; they tremble slightly with every collision. After all, bone claws are no match for metal claws."
Ye Nan listened to Magneto's words and immediately observed carefully. He saw that every time Daken and Logan's claws collided, they would tremble slightly, and after a while, they were already riddled with holes.
"It is indeed as Mr. Erik said. However, I still favor Daken in this battle." Ye Nan suddenly appeared full of interest, "Erik, how about we make a bet? I bet Daken will defeat Logan."
"What makes you so sure?" Magneto looked at the two on the field with burning eyes. He had already seen that Daken was showing signs of failing. "Even if he has some trump card, he can't turn defeat into victory. Logan's strength hasn't reached its peak yet."
He knew Logan. As the perfect killing weapon, although he had been brainwashed several times, making him very irritable, when he was irritable, his combat power was astonishing.
"I didn't expect Charles to be able to subdue such a person. Psychic power is truly powerful." Magneto sighed, "It's just that without being irritable, how can the Wolverine unleash his full power?"
"What, Mr. Erik, are you unwilling to make this bet?" Ye Nan looked at Magneto, the corners of his mouth curling into a mockery.
"It's not that I'm unwilling, it's just how to count the stakes." Magneto asked.
Ye Nan shook his head, "Let's just make it a request. The winner can make a request to the loser—a request that cannot be refused no matter what."
"Including going to die?" Magneto shook his head, "If it's like that, I won't bet."
"Just add some conditions, like 'within one's capabilities'." Ye Nan spread his hands and shrugged.
"Fine, I agree." Magneto agreed immediately.
"You've lost for sure." Ye Nan revealed a smile of a conspiracy fulfilled.
"Daken, you're just weak. Aren't you dreaming of beating up your old man? What's wrong? Your old man is right there, yet you can't beat him. You're really weak."
As soon as Ye Nan's words were out, Daken immediately flew into a rage. New hatred and old grudges surged up together, and his eyes gradually turned crimson.
On the contrary, Logan, after hearing Ye Nan's words, felt the trace of fighting desire he had finally mustered immediately vanish into thin air.
"He is my son? Really my son?" Logan retreated repeatedly. Seeing the enraged Daken, he didn't even counterattack.
The same bone claws, the angry Daken, plus the inexplicable emotions in his heart—he was already certain that the person in front of him was his son.
Seeing Logan had no heart for battle while Daken was unstoppable, Magneto couldn't help but shake his head, "It seems I've been calculated by you."
"Calculated is not quite right; you were just used by me." Ye Nan smirked.
"It's all the same." Magneto pulled his hat lower, "But since I lost, I won't renege. Whatever request you want to make, just make it. If I can do it, I will."
"Don't be impatient. Watch until the end." Ye Nan chuckled.
"Are you my son?" Logan retreated repeatedly, completely unwilling to fight Daken.
He had long since lost his memory; all his memories were lost, and what remained were only the memories crucial to him. In these memories, there was his son, but this memory was blurry, and he couldn't find his son at all.
Now that there was someone with the same ability as him and who might be his son, he didn't want to take action at all.
"That's right, I am your son—that non-existent son of yours." Daken was still unhappy about Logan saying he didn't exist. He found an opportunity and punched Logan, but when he threw the punch, he had already retracted his bone claws.
Daken hit the mark and immediately seized the opportunity to expand his results. One could see him throwing punches repeatedly, each one landing on Logan.
"Didn't you say I was already dead?"
"That was just a slip of the tongue."
"Then I'll help you correct it." Daken threw a punch.
"Enough! I am your father!" Logan roared and also threw a punch.
Bang!
The two fists collided. Daken felt a huge force hit his fist, penetrating his whole body along his arm, and his whole person flew backward.
"It looks like I won. This is truly a surprise." Magneto saw this scene and immediately smiled.
"Damn Daken." Ye Nan cursed secretly, then smiled, "I lost, so I owe you a request."
"Old friend, you've come out, why didn't you say hello?" (To be continued. If you like this work, you are welcome to come to (.) to vote for recommendations and monthly tickets. Your support is my greatest motivation.) ===== CHAPTER 247 =====
