Chapter 25: Reversing the Future!
"Name?"
"Just call me Jade. My dream is to become an excellent special agent. You should really consider it. Of course, I can also become a superhero. I'm amazing! My resume includes defeating the eight great demons, collecting all the Shadow Masks, and more..."
"Okay, next one."
Rod interrupted the chattering Xiaoyu, saying that overly lively children are not good, and what she said was often incomprehensible.
"Lord Lambo is the world's number one assassin, from the Bovino family..."
"Okay, next one."
Rhodes interrupted again. While it was indeed imaginative, the problem was that this kid wasn't even as tall as his kneecap, yet he was shouting that he wanted to be an assassin. This joke wasn't funny at all.
"Click."
Tomoyo raised her camera and pressed the shutter on Rod.
"Please, Tomoyo, don't take pictures right now, okay?"
Peter Parker covered his face, feeling a little overwhelmed. Every single one of them had a big heart, making him feel out of place in the small group!
In this situation, Rocket Raccoon pointed his paw at Peter with a wicked grin on his face.
"That little idiot is easy to get information out of; ask him!"
boom!
Before the words were even finished, the four little figures disappeared into the lobby of the Avengers headquarters.
Where are they?
Rocket Raccoon said calmly, "Don't worry, I've performed on the spaceship many times before. I'll be back obediently in a bit."
"What's the rush?!"
……
The round table in the conference room.
Natasha, Rogers, and Rhodes stared in bewilderment at the enormous white radish.
"Um, something good you brought back from Titan?"
Rogers had a complicated expression.
"It's just a radish!"
Rhodes was very certain of his judgment.
It seems the Guardians of the Galaxy haven't really eaten anything good in space.
"Tch, a bunch of ignorant Earthlings!"
"You know Garden Restaurant? Ever heard of Cooking Seeds? I heard from the kids that my dish is Neapolitan pasta with a hamburger patty!"
Rocket Raccoon, looking smug, announced the rare gadget he had acquired, completely ignoring the shock he felt when he first saw it on the Benata.
"Click!"
As the radish was cut in half, a steaming bowl of curry rice appeared on the table.
"Damn, why is it curry rice?"
Rocket Raccoon looked annoyed. He had tried this flavor before and had originally wanted to try a new one.
"Mine is fried pork cutlet."
"I am a fried dumpling."
"Um... red wine braised beef."
Rogers and his friends followed Rocket Raccoon's example, opening the radishes in front of them one by one. Looking at the radishes full of delicious food, they were momentarily stunned.
"Incredible."
"Just like these children who will disappear, it's a bit too unbelievable."
Rogers sighed. It turned out that after all these years, he was still an old-fashioned person.
"Try it, it tastes great, it's sure to be a best-selling new product in the universe."
Rocket Raccoon had already started wolfing down his food. He was planning to finish the curry rice quickly and then try the radish with the dessert icon.
The photographer said there were strawberry cakes, matcha ice cream rolls, and things like that inside.
Oh, strange artificial sweets. Rocket Raccoon is about to test them out.
"The data comparison is complete."
Just then, Nebula suddenly pushed open the door and walked in.
As she connected to the virtual screen, two documents appeared on the blue-glowing projection.
The image on the left shows the 16-year-old Spider-Man from the database, while the image on the right shows the younger version of Peter Parker scanned on the spaceship.
"After further necessary comparisons such as pupil examination and fingerprint analysis, it was confirmed that they were the same vital signs."
"Specifically, the biological age difference is about 10 years, and the final conclusion is..."
"Peter Parker!"
"..."
The meeting room was quiet.
Not only Rhodes and Natasha, but even Rogers started to take it seriously.
"Rockets, are you sure they're coming back?!"
"Don't kid me, the little monsters are treating this like a grand adventure. You think they'll be afraid of us and hide away?!"
"That's absolutely impossible!"
Rocket Raccoon scooped up a huge spoonful of strawberry cake with his paws.
Oh, this tastes so good.
"Everyone knows I hate overly sweet artificial foods, but this is an exception!"
"I absolutely love it."
Rocket Raccoon has started considering whether or not to fill the spaceship's cargo hold with radishes.
[Make Rocket Raccoon fall in love with "Dessert Poison" to earn a small amount of Mischief Points]
Rogers looked at Rocket Raccoon, who was completely absorbed in the dessert, and shook his head helplessly.
boom!
The next second, the four little ones suddenly appeared, followed by the cheerful and clear voice of the girl named Xiaoyu.
"Hi, are you looking for us?"
……
So...
"You traveled from New York ten years ago to our world ten years in the future, using the Bovino family's secret weapon, Rambo's Ten-Year Bazooka?"
Natasha spoke hesitantly, almost uttering each word slowly.
"That's right, that's exactly it."
A series of affirmations from Tama, Tomoyo, and Peter.
and also……
"Haha, submit to Lord Lambo, you foolish time traveler!"
Lambo excitedly jumped onto the table, but before he could even finish his second spin, Rhodes scooped him up and carried him away.
"This is not the time to be fooling around, if it were 2012."
"It was during the Chitauri invasion."
Natasha was interrupted by Xiaoyu before she could finish speaking.
"That's right, I know about the alien invasion of New York."
Xiaoyu used exaggerated tone and gestures to announce the big news.
"Iron Man, the hero Stark, carried a nuclear bomb into the wormhole; he is humanity's hope!"
"Um, Xiaoyu."
Peter tugged at Xiaoyu's sleeve, looking quite embarrassed.
"You clearly didn't remember Mr. Stark at all when you watched the news..."
"Shut up!"
"Peter, this is my best chance to become a superhero, you absolutely can't sabotage me, you know that!"
Jade angrily stomped on Peter's foot, then smiled at the Avengers present.
"So... this counts as interstellar travel?!"
Rogers pondered for a long time before recalling some peculiar expressions from old-fashioned science fiction movies.
"It's probably time travel, or... I don't know!"
Rhodes picked up Lambo, looked him up and down, but couldn't see anything strange about it.
I can't understand a single one of the theories these kids are spouting.
"Heh, you two ordinary Earthlings think you can understand such complicated concepts as time travel and parallel worlds?!"
"Stop kidding, your brains aren't even as big as my strawberry!"
"Don't make things difficult for yourself."
Rocket Raccoon pouted and popped the last bite of strawberry into his mouth.
"By the way, which radish is in the pizza container? I feel like I can still eat more."
"Rocket!"
Natasha stood up abruptly, her voice trembling with excitement, as if she were about to lose control.
"You may not understand what the Chitauri invasion means to us."
"That was when the Avengers officially appeared, that was... the beginning of everything."
Her gaze swept over Rogers and Rhodes, finally settling on little Peter.
"Thanos hasn't arrived yet, the worst hasn't happened, but Peter and his friends have already come to our world."
"What does this mean?!"
"This means we could potentially reverse everything before anything even happens."
"That way, everyone can come back."
Rocket Raccoon was stunned. He turned his head in disbelief. "Impossible!"
Why won't you give it a try!
Natasha shouted loudly at the rocket.
At this moment, Rogers and Rhodes fully understood Natasha's thoughts.
Even if there is only a tiny, barely perceptible glimmer of hope, you should still try, even if you know it's impossible.
The problem is...
"What should we do?!"
"have no idea!"
Natasha stated very bluntly that her brain wasn't working properly.
but……
"Just like Rocket said, if we can't understand it, we'll find a smart person who can understand it all."
"We need Tony!"
