Dane Joins the Battle

Just as I thought, Dane thought.

He was certain that this strange design was one of the Hammers of Heaven. There was no doubt that Namor had become the first Sky Hammer Venerable.

"I roughly understand the situation. Rest assured, Sokovia will not abandon any of its allies."

"For the time being, you two can stay in Sokovia. Once we deal with Namor, you can return to Wakanda and rebuild order..."

"I'm sorry." Shuri suddenly stood up. "I hope to take part in this."

"Princess Shuri, this is dangerous." Dane spoke frankly. "You must have heard of Thor, who was active in the Battle of New York some time ago. I suspect Namor now possesses power equal to his."

"You must have seen the power of the hammer in his hand as well."

It was hard to say whether Kull and Odin had borrowed ideas from each other when forging their weapons.

"I can help." Shuri sensed Dane's reluctance and quickly spoke up.

"Even if I don't go to the battlefield, I still hope to do my part."

As Wakanda's Princess, she could not accept doing nothing in a matter concerning her own country, sitting by and benefiting like an Outsider.

Dane thought it over. Shuri seemed to be a researcher quite skilled at inventing advanced technology.

"Fine. You can join Atlas's research department."

It was not a bad thing either way, so he let her have her way.

Afterward, Dane informed Thor of the news.

Since the Sky Hammer Venerable had appeared, it was time for Asgard to step up.

Whoever caused the problem should clean it up. Until Asgard proved unable to resolve it, Dane would not intervene for the time being.

"Even knowing how efficient Middle-earth people are, isn't this a little too efficient?"

Thor was astonished.
