The Arrival of Naruto in the Marvel Universe

Chapter 39: Chapter 039: Fifty Percent Confidence



After assigning tasks to the team, Charles gazed at the sky outside, sighing, "The weather is about to change!"

 

Then, Charles Doyle opened the system interface and completed today's check-in.

 

Ding! Check-in successful, gained 200 reputation points!

 

Would you like to upgrade to VIP4 and receive double rewards?

 

After clicking the X, Charles exited the system interface and began contemplating how to maximize his gains during the upcoming operation to rescue John Wick.

 

 

...

 

 

On the other side-

 

The previously sunny sky suddenly became overcast, as if a storm was approaching.

 

Just as John Wick left the park, he appeared on a bustling street, supporting his injured body and accompanied by his loyal dog. He noticed many assassins greedily staring at him.

 

Glancing at his watch, John noted that the excommunication would take effect at 6 pm, giving him an hour left.

 

Thinking about the note in his pocket and Winston's advice, John Wick knew where he should head next.

 

However, exercising caution, he decided to make a detour to the New York Highway Library to retrieve his hidden gold coins and another item that could aid his escape.

 

"A Roslohm pass!"

 

He couldn't solely rely on the Charles Doyle Agency as his last resort. After all, the $14 million bounty was a significant sum.

 

Suddenly, rain started pouring from the sky.

 

John Wick hailed a taxi on the street and said, "Go to the New York Highway Library."

 

The driver turned around and said, "No problem."

 

The car sped up, but before it could go far, traffic congestion caused by the heavy rain brought the vehicle to a halt.

 

Listening to the honking horns of numerous cars ahead, John Wick felt urgency. He knew his safety window was closing rapidly, and once the time was up, anyone could potentially be his enemy.

 

Rolling up his sleeves, John checked the time and took out a Continental Hotel-issued gold coin from his pocket. He handed it to the driver and said, "Change of plans."

 

Hearing his voice, the driver turned around and looked at the gold coin in John Wick's hand before taking it.

 

"Go to the Continental Hotel. Can you hand it to the front desk?"

 

As John Wick spoke, he glanced at his loyal dog sitting beside him.

 

The driver looked at John and nodded, "Sure, Mr. Wick."

 

Evidently, this taxi driver was familiar with the renowned Night Devil.

 

John Wick gently petted his dog a few times and instructed, "Good boy, good boy."

 

Then, he opened the car door, exited the taxi, and started running towards the direction of the library.

 

At this moment, countless eyes on the street were fixated on John Wick. However, knowing they had to wait another hour before they could act, everyone settled down again. After all, they had to abide by the Continental Hotel's rules until that time arrived.

 

Soon, braving the rain, John Wick arrived at the New York Highway Library.

 

Sprinting to the library's service desk, John Wick immediately spoke to the staff member, "The author of 'Russian Folktales' is Alexander Afanasyev, 1864."

 

As the librarian looked up the book's location, John Wick checked the time again, confirming that there was still time left.

 

The librarian handed John Wick a note with the book's location and said, "On the second floor."

 

"Thank you!"

 

Taking the note, John Wick hurriedly made his way to the second floor.

 

 

 

 

Meanwhile, Chalon drove Winston back to the Continental Hotel.

 

Upon entering the hotel, Chalon expressed, "I really hope Mr. Wick can escape safely."

 

Winston adjusted his collar and replied as he walked, "Chalon, he deliberately broke the rules and killed someone in the hotel."

 

Walking alongside Winston, Chalon asked, "Do you think he can escape?"

 

Winston turned to look at Chalon and said, "He's now worth a $14 million bounty. Every assassin in the city wants a piece of it."

 

"I believe there's a fifty percent chance he'll escape, provided he finds Charles Doyle and gets his help."

 

Chalon questioned, "Fifty percent?"

 

In Chalon's understanding, the Charles Doyle who had recently demonstrated his dominance outside the Continental Hotel was someone no assassin dared to provoke. If he decided to intervene, John Wick's chances of escaping should be certain.

 

Winston chuckled, "A fifty percent chance. Either Charles kills John to claim the bounty, or he helps John escape."

 

"After all, the current John Wick has become worthless. He has to choose between the promise of the blood oath marker and $14 million."

 

"It depends on Charles Doyle's own decision."

 

After saying this, Winston continued walking upstairs.

 

Watching Winston leave, Chalon stood still in place, puzzled.

 

 

...

 

 

John Wick quickly arrived at the location of the books on the second floor, holding the note.

 

Taking out the book, he tore off a sticker inside, revealing a photo of his deceased wife, few gold coins, a pass, and other items.

 

He placed the photo on the shelf, then took out the gold coins and put them in his pocket. He also put the pass and other items in his pocket.

 

Finally, John Wick picked up the photo of his deceased wife, gazed at it deeply, and kissed it before sealing it back in the book.

 

At this moment, a voice sounded in his ear, "Consider why God created you."

 

Accompanied by footsteps, the voice continued, "Not to live like a beast, but to pursue virtue and knowledge."

 

A giant over two meters tall appeared, holding a book. He said to John Wick, "Dante!"

 

He showed the cover of the book to John Wick, indicating that the words inside were from the book, and then placed it on the shelf.

 

John Wick also returned the book he held to the shelf.

 

Looking at John Wick, the giant named Ernest spoke, "You seem a bit weak, John."

 

John Wick gazed at the giant and said, "Ernest, the time hasn't come yet."

 

Ernest didn't hold back, "It's almost time."

 

"Who knows when you'll die?"

 

John Wick's expression grew serious as he asked, "Are you sure you want to do this?"

 

Ernest tilted his head, his eyes revealing greed, "14 million. It's a huge sum."

 

"NO, first, you need to have a life to spend."

 

Without hesitation, Ernest pulled out a short sword from his waist and lunged at John Wick.

 

John Wick quickly picked up a book from the shelf and used it to defend himself.

 

The two clashed instantly.
