Chapter 281: Verbal Confrontation

~10 min read 1,814 words

The plane restarted and roared into the sky, only this time there were two more passengers on the plane.

"Hey, not bad, this little guy, where did you find him?" Magneto tried to hold Nightcrawler, but when he saw Nightcrawler teleport and disappear, he was immediately surprised, "Such an ability is very rare."

"I have to say, you and that Stryker are both lucky guys. Why would my mutant brothers follow people like you?" Magneto said, and then looked at Wolverine, "My werewolf is the same. Clearly a mutant brother, yet he wants to pursue ordinary humans. I don't know what's wrong with his brain."

"Shut your stinking mouth." Wolverine Logan crossed his arms in front of his chest and popped out two claws, "If you talk more, I'll kill you."

Logan had no good feelings for Magneto. Whether in the past or now, he held an attitude of disgust toward Magneto.

"You think you're very powerful again." Magneto aimed his hand at Logan, and invisible magnetic force manipulated the metal in Logan's body, slowly lifting Logan up, "Werewolf, I remember saying that my restraint on you is very great."

"You have no power to fight back in front of me."

Seeing Magneto becoming more and more excessive, Ye Nan immediately roared: "Enough, Magneto, we are just in a cooperative relationship, and this is not a place for you to show off your power."

Magneto was doing whatever he wanted on the plane. If he, the owner, didn't speak up, he would lose all his face.

"Oh, our partner is angry." Seeing Ye Nan speak, Magneto shook his head and put Logan down, "I'll give you some face, but please keep an eye on your pet and don't let him come out to bite people."

"You bastard..." Hearing this, Logan immediately wanted to attack Magneto, but a shadow blocked him, "Logan, don't be angry. Our Mr. Magneto is just showing off here."

Ye Nan smiled gently, "My dear Mr. Magneto, I heard that you had a very bad time in prison, being bullied by a group of ordinary people in your eyes. How does it feel?"

"I'm afraid you are the only mutant in this world who has been bullied like this. You are really a disgrace to mutants."

Hearing this, Magneto was angry at first, and then an unfathomable smile appeared on his face, "Ye Nan, you are protecting this werewolf so much. It seems you really treat him as your pet."

"Humph, pet! I have never treated him as my pet. I am different from you, Magneto." Ye Nan snorted coldly, "You treat Mystique by your side as your pet, while I treat Logan as my brother. You probably don't know why Professor X would oppose you at all costs, even if he has already understood his position."

"Isn't it because of different philosophies?" Magneto said, his tone full of doubt.

Just as Ye Nan said, Professor X still refused to cooperate with Magneto after understanding his position, and was even more disgusted with Magneto.

"Of course not." Ye Nan shook his head and looked at Magneto with a smile, "You actually know very well what the root of Professor X's opposition to you is, it's just that you don't want to think about it."

"I don't want to think about it?" Magneto kept thinking in his heart.

All along, he thought that the disagreement between him and Professor X was because of different philosophies, but now that Ye Nan said this, it didn't seem so.

If it were before, he would definitely scold Ye Nan for spreading rumors here, instead of doubting himself. But now, Professor X clearly understood his position, yet still chose to go against Magneto, and even didn't hesitate to join forces with Ye Nan to lock him in prison. This made his heart full of confusion and incomprehension...

He didn't understand why this happened, but he understood that there must be a reason. In the past, he stubbornly believed that Professor X had a different philosophy from him. Now that he heard Ye Nan say this, he felt strange.

"Your methods, your attitude toward your subordinates." Ye Nan's words were like a needle, stabbing directly into the bottom of Magneto's heart, "Professor X likes mutants very much. In his eyes, mutants are all his relatives. He treats mutants as if they were his own brothers. Unless it is absolutely necessary, he will not abandon his brothers."

"But you, Magneto, you keep saying 'mutant brothers,' but ask yourself, do you really treat mutants as brothers? Let alone brothers, not even subordinates. In your eyes, they are your tools, tools to be thrown away after use. You cold-hearted guy."

Ye Nan's words were heart-piercing, and he wished he could use his words to destroy Magneto's heart.

For Ye Nan, Magneto was far more dangerous than Professor X. At least Ye Nan could use righteousness to suppress Professor X and bind Professor X's hands and feet. But facing Magneto, he could only borrow power. But power wasn't so easy to borrow. When he was on Ellis Island, he used Magneto's weakness to defeat Magneto in one fell swoop. But now, he didn't have such a good thing.

"You're talking nonsense, Mr. Magneto is good to us." Mystique roared, defending Magneto, "I know you are eloquent, you are silver-tongued, and as soon as you opened your mouth, you persuaded Professor X. But Mr. Magneto is not that stupid professor, he won't listen to your nonsense."

Mystique scolded Ye Nan, then turned to stick to Magneto, whispering, "Erik, don't pay attention to him, he's just trash who only knows how to talk big."

"He's right, I am a tyrant." Magneto smiled faintly, "But in this world, a tyrant is needed. After the end of World War I, Germany was full of despair. Because of being plundered, because of the influence of defeat, the whole of Germany was filled with a fearful atmosphere."

"It was Hitler who saved Germany. With his tough stance, he gained a lot of support. With his tough stance, he obtained aid from Britain and pulled Germany out of the abyss of destruction. It was also him who, with a tough stance, forced the United States to abandon its debts."

"He is a tyrant, and also a hero. What I did was to pay tribute to Hitler, but I am not Hitler. I have more powerful power than Hitler. I will not become the next Hitler." Magneto said, becoming excited, "Mutants need a Hitler to fight for their interests, and I am that Hitler. I will lead mutants to glory."

Ye Nan looked at the excited Magneto, stunned. He originally intended to persuade Magneto, preferably to make Magneto lose heart.

But the facts were just the opposite. Magneto not only didn't wake up, but went crazy. He wanted to be a Hitler, a Hitler belonging to mutants.

Who was Hitler? The culprit of World War II. For the people of the world, he was the source of disaster. If it weren't for him, perhaps World War II wouldn't have broken out.

But now Magneto actually said he wanted to be Hitler, to be that war maniac. Thinking about it, Ye Nan felt a chill down his spine.

"You're crazy." Ye Nan said in a low voice, his words filled with an indescribable chill.

Although he knew Magneto wanted to destroy humanity before, he never thought Magneto would be so ruthless as to want to be Hitler.

If the current mutants were compared to the Germans during World War II, then the atrocities committed by the Germans might appear again...

That was an inhumane atrocity. They slaughtered a large number of Jews, and not just Jews, but many other tourists and merchants.

"I'm not crazy, I just understood what I wanted to do."

"People like you don't understand Hitler's great achievements at all." Magneto looked at Ye Nan and the others with disdain, "He pulled Germany out of the abyss, he gave Germans confidence. Perhaps in your eyes, he is a devil, but in the hearts of Germans, he is a savior in despair."

"Just like me, in the hearts of mutants, I am a savior, and in your eyes, I am a devil. What's ridiculous is that you don't see my efforts at all."

"Sir, we found it." The Terminator transmitted the message appropriately, interrupting Magneto's continued speech.

"Forget it, I don't want to waste my breath on you either." Ye Nan said in a low voice, "You have your ideas, we have our path. But now, I am your partner, so put away that set of rhetoric. If I find you breaking your promise again during our cooperation, you won't be as lucky as last time."

"Are you threatening me?" Magneto's eyes instantly became gloomy, "It seems you really think you are the protagonist? Will the last thing happen again?"

"Where there's a will, there's a way. You think your plan is flawless, but in fact, as long as you have the heart, you can see the flaws. You can never be perfect forever, can you?" Ye Nan flicked the dust off his clothes, "No one can always be smooth sailing, unless they are the protagonist."

Ye Nan's words made Mystique's face change again and again.

"Don't be too arrogant." Mystique roared.

The last thing was something Magneto had never encountered before. He was bullied by a small guy, which made Magneto feel very uncomfortable and annoyed.

As Magneto's close woman, she naturally knew what Magneto was thinking, and also understood how much damage the last thing did to Magneto. So when Ye Nan mentioned this thing again and again, Mystique became angry.

"The master hasn't spoken yet, and the dog is interrupting. No upbringing." Ye Nan said coldly, looking straight at Magneto, wanting to see Magneto's reaction.

"It seems you really treat yourself as the protagonist." Magneto suddenly laughed, "You said that no one can always be smooth sailing except the protagonist, but I want to say, even the protagonist cannot always be smooth sailing."

"I have never thought of myself as the protagonist. Every one of my things is done with trepidation, and I have never been self-righteous." Ye Nan also smiled back at Magneto.

"Is that so?" Magneto's eyes stared fixedly at Ye Nan, his hands constantly moving on his legs, looking like he was planning to make a move.

"Of course." Ye Nan met Magneto's gaze without hesitation, colliding with his line of sight.

Magneto's gaze was as sharp as a knife, cutting fiercely into Ye Nan's gaze, but Ye Nan wasn't afraid. He still looked at Magneto, not showing any weakness.

"Very good." Seeing that he couldn't suppress Ye Nan, Magneto immediately laughed, "I hope you can maintain your caution in the future."

"Thank you for your kind words." ===== CHAPTER 282 =====
