Multiverse of Marvel

Chapter 101: A shock to the world

An hour later a huge shock jolted the whole world. All the news channels were buzzing with the same news and it was "Death of John Jameson". People were astounded by this news.

Nobody had expected that John would die and that too was murdered in broad daylight. John was the most upstanding person the people could think of. He had a very clean image, did loads of charity work and made such incredible movies that almost everybody loved him.

Jameson closed the office of 'Daily Bugle' and gave the employees a week off from all work when the news came upon him. His eyes were red when he had announced this. He was very close to tears but didn't want to show it to people. After the last employee left the premises he burst into tears.

The people who left the offices could hear his sobs from outside. Everybody felt sad and pity for their boss. John was loved here too.

Due to his death the stock markets had a field day. It fluctuated violently. John death affected many people emotionally. At evening Tony came out for a press conference.

"This has been a very sad day for humanity. My friend, my colleague and a great person had left us. I don't know who was his murderer but I assure you this that the name of 'Avengers' isn't for a show. All of us will band together and get to the bottom of this. We won't sleep until the culprit is caught." saying this Tony left with a very sad face without entertaining any questions.

Nick Fury too started searching for the culprit using SHIELD as John was a consultant and as a member of SHIELD it was necessary to find out the murderer and bring him to justice.

Hydra on the other hand sighed in relief. Even though John had knowledge of alchemy and had huge power but he still couldn't save himself from a bullet. This proved that John didn't have any extra security and couldn't have any influence on the people who comes to this world.

Hydra even checked on the dead body of John and matched with the records and found that it was really John who died. Whitehall who saw this news was rejoicing as the last doubts of his plan being a huge back stab in the future went down the drain. Now it was time for the last phase of his plan to be executed.

4 days went by after that. Hydra became more sure that John had really died. The Avengers went into a searching frenzy after this. Batman went out at night and hell rose for the underworld people. Tony went to Europe and Middle East to search for information and even Diana joined this search. SHIELD too dispatched work forces to find the culprit.

On the 5th day the scheduled meeting between high levels of Hydra and politicians affiliated with them came to a secluded island. Every high level member came including Pierce, Whitehall and others. Only Strucker and some of the agents under him didn't come as he was busy with Loki's scepter and his experiments.

The lords of the countries of Naruto's world arrived soon after. Hydra had built a temporary shelter in the island before so after arriving everybody took their seats inside the shelter. There was an environment of joy inside as Hydra and the lords had almost won the war. Hydra's agents had informed from the Naruto's world that there was a turmoil after the death of Kages and there was a huge unrest and an air of uncertainty in the villages.

"Cheers to our victory and taking over the world." Pierce said holding a glass of wine. Standing behind him was a man with metal arm, Bucky Barnes, a.k.a. the Winter soldier.

"Cheers!" Whitehall. Sunil Bakshi, who was the right hand man of Whitehall was present. They all cheered and everybody had wide smiles in their faces.

"It's our collective victory." said the lord of the fire country.

"Now let's plan the second phase." Pierce said. Everybody who were in a jubilant mood got serious.

"Let's discuss the Insight Project, Zola is ready with the algorithm and soon we will launch the the satellite from the Lemurian Star. We have made huge machines that can produce huge poison and it will be administered in the villages killing everyone in it...."

The lords who had some idea about the satellites and Insight Project listened to the plan of Pierce. The idea of killing all the people in their villages kind of disgusted them but it was necessary. But as they were listening the lords of the countries felt their heads being dizzy. They felt as if the world was spinning rapidly.

"You poisoned us? How? We had all administered with antidotes." the lord of fire country said as he realized what had happened and saw even the ninjas who he brought for personal safety was acting the same way as them.

"We derived a less lethal poison from the main one. The previous antidotes don't work on them. Even though it won't kill the ninjas, it's enough to get you killed and get the ninjas unconscious for few hours."

"In these four days we conducted an experiment on ninjas who went out so we know the results. We have already spread it across the island and the secret ninjas which you have sent to ambush us has all inhaled this poison." said Whitehall.

"You all really played us. I thought we had the jump on you." said the lord of earth country.
