Logen's sudden appearance caused the entire room to fall into an eerie silence. Only the sound of his footsteps could be heard in the entire room.
At first, Dai Ken did not show any emotion toward the sudden appearance of the man. It was only when he saw the steel claws on Logen's hand that he instantly understood.
The man who suddenly appeared was Wolverine Logen. He was the man they had been talking about, the man who was their father.
The moment Mariko saw Logan, she understood the source of the uneasiness in her heart. The first thing she thought of was Dai Ken. She noticed a fanatical expression on Dai Ken's face.
This was not a good sign. Mariko did not hesitate to pull out the remote control that controlled the device inside Dai Ken's body. Now that she might be in big trouble, she did not want to complicate matters. Thus, she used the device implanted in Dai Ken's hand to lock his bone claws, preventing him from reaching out later.
"What are you trying to do, Logen!" Mariko said in a bluffing tone.
Logen stopped moving forward and maintained a distance from Mariko. Dai Ken was now between Mariko and Logen.
"I should be the one asking you what you are trying to do." Logen could not hide the rage in his voice. He clenched his fists so tightly that his veins popped out and his muscular arms trembled slightly. One could imagine how furious he was right now.
Li Jie was still standing in the corner with the invisibility device activated. The current situation was Wolverine's family matter. There was no telling if there would be domestic violence later. Hmm, the domestic violence between Logen and Mariko should be beyond what most people could imagine.
At this moment, Li Jie decided to be a quiet spectator. He would only lend a hand when Logen really needed help. It was best not to interfere in someone else's family matter at this time. Otherwise, it would become a thankless action.
After all, as a friend, he had done everything he could for Logen. Now, it was up to Logen to resolve this matter.
"This child is mine?" Logen pointed at Dai Ken.
"This has nothing to do with you." Mariko was still trying her best to defend herself.
"The claws on his hand and his super regenerative ability have nothing to do with me? Hmm? "Logen's tone was unfriendly.
"Anyhow, that's what I brought you up for. This has nothing to do with you, Logen! Now I think you'd better leave the East Ocean. My people will send you to Tokyo Airport until you board the flight to New York. " As Mariko spoke, more and more of the Yashida Corporation's hired thugs entered the room.
They were all dressed in black suits. Some of them had katanas in their hands, while others had submachine guns and pistols. After all, this was just a meeting with Harry, and it was in Ginza, Tokyo. This was their base camp, and they did not think that there would be any danger. That was why no one was carrying rifles or other heavy weapons.
Faced with the Truth Child's threatening words, Logen did not compromise. "I can leave, but I need to take him with me before I go. He is not your test subject! I know a place suitable for him to grow up. "
Naturally, the place Logen was referring to was the Xavier Academy for the Gifted, the school that was specially established for mutants.
"He will find his friends. He should go to school and live a normal life, not be your plaything and test subject!" Logen's words made Dai Ken's eyes brighten.
Today was perhaps the most surprising day of his life. At first, someone told him that he had a father. In the next second, the man who was his father appeared in front of him.
He even said that he would send him to school and live a normal life. This was like a sweet dream that Dai Ken was having at night. He suspected that he had not woken up yet. A new life! A better life.
A new life away from pain, experiments, and cruel training. Dai Ken imagined hundreds of new ways of life in his mind, and now this new life was about to unfold?!
"Come here, kid!" Logan waved at Daken, gesturing for him to come to his side. Logen wanted to take him away from that vicious mother. Or rather, Mariko was not fit to be a mother.
Dai Ken did not hesitate to move to Logen's side. However, another voice that had terrified him for more than a decade stopped him.
"Stop, Dai Ken. Come back. You know the consequences. "Mariko looked at Dai Ken with a cold gaze that caused him to tremble.
Dai Ken hesitated. He did not know what to do. However, after a moment, his hesitation was broken by himself.
He had suffered enough inhumane abuse. Now, Dai Ken was on the verge of insanity. He did not care about the consequences and wanted to escape from Mariko's control. Now, he yearned for a new life.
No one could destroy the life that he yearned for. No one!
So, Dai Ken took a step toward Logen. Truth was furious. The little brat who had always been obedient to her actually dared to disobey her orders?
It was a feeling that bordered on humiliation. It made Truth feel strangely angry. And this anger prompted her to do something stupid. A very, very stupid thing.
She decided to give Dai Ken a taste of pain so that he would understand what he was afraid of. So, she pressed the switch in her hand. The neural equipment in Dai Ken's brain received the command and began to work.
They began to release a large amount of chemical substances that would cause immense pain. They were released into Dai Ken's pituitary gland. The released chemical substances were quickly transmitted to the rest of the brain through the neurons.
Every frontal lobe, every sulcus, every nerve ending. These chemical substances began to display their power right before Logen.
Dai Ken fell to the ground just like that. His limbs began to twitch violently. Great pain assaulted him, destroying his spirit. The first things that started to go out of control were tears, snot, and saliva. Dai Ken was in so much pain that he could not control his organs. Tears began to flow out in large droplets.
Snot flowed uncontrollably from his nose. Saliva flowed out from the corner of his mouth. However, Dai Ken could not wipe it away. Because his limbs were twitching.
He wanted to scream, but he could not. Because the pain made it difficult for him to control his voice. He could only moan meaninglessly in a low voice. It was like a lame stray dog being hit on the back with a shovel, letting out a sorrowful howl.
"What are you doing! Stop!!! " Logen could no longer conceal his anger. A large amount of blood rushed to his brain, causing his entire face to turn red. The veins on his forehead protruded. Logen let out a loud roar. He demanded Truth to stop what she was doing.
Li Jie, who was standing at the side, was stunned. One could even say that he was dumbfounded. He had always thought that Mariko would at most do some simple experiments on Dai Ken. Perhaps she would use him as a bargaining chip and capital.
But because Dai Ken was her biological child, at least she would feel the warmth of a mother. And now, everything that was laid out before him had shattered Li Jie's worldview.
Perhaps Mariko had never treated Dai Ken as her own child. Everything she had done had caused Li Jie, who was merely an outsider, to feel an overwhelming sense of rage, so much so that he felt as if his soul was being ripped out of his body.
This was because a mother had done such a cruel thing to her own son. Li Jie knew that today's matter could not be resolved peacefully.
Li Jie had silently readied his weapon. Regardless of the reason, those who tried to stop Logen from bringing Dai Ken back would die. Li Jie was certain of that.
And he was prepared to assist Logan in doing so. Mariko's actions had given him an indescribable sense of sympathy for Dai Ken.
