Nagare looks at his assembled clansmen. There were many things to discuss and it would seem like they would have to expedite their plan and skip a few steps. They would have to skip using Anna as bait since it was near impossible to capture AND hold onto the young Strain. Based off of the conversation between Tony and the man who he called Steve, he assumed that Steve was the only one sent over, but he would have to double check with Tony on that. He was also contemplating on promoting Tony to J rank to keep a much better eye on him and a tighter grip. He then smiles before speaking.
"Since a monkey wrench has been thrown into our plans, we must replan if we want to take down the other clans. After all, it would be a shame for all that power within the Dresden Slate to go to waste.." Nagare starts off with.
"Agreed. What do you propose Nagare?" Yukari asks.
"Well, before we start drawing up a new plan, I have two things to discuss, both in regards to Mr. Stark," Nagare says. "Do you know if anyone came with that man Steve?"
"Not that I'm aware of. It would seem like our boss sent only Steve. Though I do have to wonder how he became a HOMRA member. The communication part wouldn't be hard as before I left America, I made everyone who needs one a translator bracelet. Also, just call me Tony," Tony says.
"I see. Well, we don't have time to worry about that. Now the other topic - Tony's ranking. I believe it would be beneficial to promote him all the way to J rank. Those in agreement with me, raise your hand," Nagare says. Sukuna, Yukari and Tenkei all raise their hands. "Wonderful, Tony will now be an official J rank. You will get access to our base and an immense amount of power."
"Thank you, Nagare," Tony says, bowing his head to the Green King.
"Alright! Let's get to planning!" Sukuna says excitedly.
"Indeed. We know that the Reds know what we are up to. It is probably also safe to assume that the Blues and Silvers know as well. They not only have two Strains on their side, but also one of Tony's coworkers," Tenkei says. "What can you tell us about Steve?"
"Well Steve is what is called a super soldier. In the 40's, during World War 2, there was a program to make super soldiers and Steve was in that program. He was the first, and only, super soldier to come out of that program. He was injected with this serum to make him at peak performance - enhanced speed and strength, increased metabolism and durability, amazing reaction and processing time and the best reflexes," Tony explains.
"Wow.. He's like a man-made Strain! He's a powerful player on the field!" Sukuna exclaims.
"That he is. But don't forget about our own Tony. He's obviously on the same level.. Just in a different way," Nagare says.
"Well yeah. I'm Iron Man. Genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist," Tony brags. The memory of him saying that to Steve flashes across his mind for a moment and he almost snorts. "Outside the suit, its my genius that helps our group. And then the suit obviously helps the group with the fighting."
"Should we have to worry about the rest of your group being called?" Yukari asks.
"Maybe. If that's the case, we have Thor, the Norse God of Thunder. Uh, two assassins who are actually really impressive and a guy you really don't want to piss off unless you wanna deal with a giant, green rage machine," Tony comments.
"You said Steve is from the 40's, correct?" Tenkei asks.
"Yeah, what about that?" Tony asks, playing dumb.
"The Silvers are definitely helping then. Their King is Adolf K Weismann and he was one of the people behind the discovery of the Dresden Slates. I would bet on the two knowing each other..." Tenkei says. This causes silence to wash over the occupants of the room. Tony breaks it.
"Alright, so now we know at least two clans are partnered. No big deal. JUNGLE has a lot of clansmen, right? Why not set them up as a distraction force? Send them to attack HOMRA and the Silver Clan," Tony says as if that was obvious.
"Mmmm.. That is a good idea. Send our clansmen to attack the HOMRA bar and then go for the Dresden Slate while they're dealing with our clansmen," Nagare says. A wicked grin splits across his face. "What a wonderful idea Tony. You'll assist with the Dresden Slate. I wonder if the Gold King is still alive. If he's still alive, that would cause an issue..."
"If he isn't already dead, then he will be dying soon. Unlike Weismann, he doesn't not have immortality," Tenkei says.
"So send a spy to spy on the Gold King and to report back when he dies so we can launch this plan as soon as possible?" Tony suggests.
"That would work. I think we should send Miss Hirasaka. She is only U rank but she is highly skilled and this would be her forte," Yukari adds on.
"She would just have to be aware of the Usagi, as will we when the Gold King dies," Nagare says. He noticed the question that Tony was about to ask. "Before you ask Tony, the Usagi are the few of the Gold Clan who can actually fight. However, because they are Gold Clan and can fight, they are some of the best fighters out there. The Gold Aura enhances someone's talent to full potential."
"Interesting.. Shame you don't have someone on the inside," Tony mutters.
"Shame that is. But even then, they are very few. So the plan for the time being will be this - Miss Hirasaka will go spy on the Gold Clan. When the Gold King dies, she informs us and we send our lower clansmen to attack HOMRA. Then, while Red and Silver are busy with our clansmen, the five of us go capture the Dresden Slate before the Blues can interfere," Nagare says. The other floor nod in agreement and Yukari sends the assignment out to Douhan Hirasaka. Tony pardons himself from the room and goes out into the hallway. He knew he couldn't reveal ALL of the plan, but he knew he had to tell the others something and he needed to do it fast and now. Hoping that Steve didn't accidentally delete his text, Tony sends the Avenger now Red Clansman a text about the Gold King.
