Chapter 233: New leader
"You don't have the leverage to negotiate with me, King T'Chaka. In the call I asked you for the reason you proposed for the Accords. You didn't reply. That time I told you that you would regret this." John said. T'Chaka sighed as he really didn't expect that everything would turn out like this. He should have spoken clearly with John before and should have trusted the Avengers.
"Tony and Batman had vibranium armor. You can't expect us not to retaliate. " T'Chaka spoke in his defense for the first time.
"That Vibranium was stolen from your country by Klaue, not by us. If you wanted the Vibranium you could have spoken to us but instead you went behind our backs." Wayne replied this time.
"You don't get to cry 'victim' when you yourself initiated the fight." Diana said. T'Chaka knew he was wrong and his past had come back now to haunt him.
"Erik will battle for the throne against T'Challa since that is the custom here. We won't interfere. Wakanda doesn't matter to the Avengers anymore. If there is any kind of retaliation from Wakanda then I will personally send the country back to the third world category. And this time it won't be a sham." John said
"I am curious, what condition you wanted to ask King T'Chaka?" Hal asked.
"I just hoped that Wakanda can continue remaining in the shadows." T'Chaka said with a sigh.
"That will depend on the next King. I don't care about what happens. I will keep a lookout in this country and I want the trial to proceed. If nothing is done I will make sure that everybody knows of what had happened in the past." John said as he vanished with the other Avengers leaving Erik and Klaue behind.
He wouldn't care about Wakanda any more as now he had more important things to do. That is to uproot the members of the government that had been an eyesore for him for a long time. Even though Umbrella has had huge influence, it was still sometimes overwhelmed by bureaucracy. Wayne and John had already thought about the purge and they needed to carry it this week.
"That was one hell of a trip. It's a pity we didn't get to see such an awesome country for a long time." Pietro said.
"We will have a much bigger and better country for ourselves." John replied.
"Really? A new world? Can't wait for it." Pietro said excitedly.
"Steve, Wayne I need to show you someone." John said.
"Someone? Sure." Steve replied.
"Others you can all go home. The Sokovia Accords will never see the light of day. I can assure you. SHIELD had been infiltrating all major walks of life and government too. We will just replace those people who are actively giving us problems. We need to get ready for the arrival of the new world because they will arrive in a few months. We don't have much time." John said.
"Which new world is coming. Now I am really curious. Will it be dangerous?" Hal asked as he was interested in new people.
"Dangerous? Yes. They are. But they are controllable." John said. Everybody went to their own places as Victor opened boom tubes for all. Only Steve, Wayne and John remained.
John again teleported with them to a place which looked like the Himalayas. There was snow and high mountains. There was also a huge palace-like structure built on the sides of the mountain.
"Is that what I think it is?" Wayne asked.
"Yes. This is the headquarters of the League of Assassins." John replied as he really brought Steve and Wayne here. He was here for a reason.
When Raas Al Ghul was extracted, it was done in order to give the League to Steve. Steve had a straight moral compass and he could lead the League perfectly. John knew he could do the same with Raas as he had proper control over everybody here but he wanted all members of the Avengers to have equal strength and Steve was seriously lacking in this regard.
And after he saw Steve dating Diana he was more determined to give the League to Steve. He wanted Steve to have a happy story and since he couldn't go back in time, it was better to give him more 'time'. John was a selfish man so he wouldn't hesitate to kill people to cover his interests but Steve was more morally straight and he thought it would be better to have someone to always show him the correct path.
John feared that he would become arrogant in the future with all the powers he possesses and he wanted to make sure there was someone who could direct his path if he ever goes astray. And Steve was the perfect candidate for that. And it could only be done if Steve had a long life. The Lazarus Pit could easily provide him that.
"The League? Of Ra's Al Ghul? Did they arrive in our world? Aren't they a very big organisation? Don't we need all the members to fight them?" Steve asked.
/yes, I know this is controversial and probably I will get hate for this decision. This was my personal choice/
