Grandpa Universe In Multiverse

Chapter 535: The Three Subordinates



"But the armor is empty," Ajax argued.

"AJAX, I\'m fine." Alphonse\'s voice came.

Ajax looked back in shock. "Al?"

"Yeah, it\'s a long story, but it really is me," Alphonse said.

But then Ajax looked at Edward on the ground with a missing metal arm. He looked at the attacker angrily, "BAD MAN."

*BAM*

Ajax slapped him, knocking his glasses away from his face.

*BOOM*

A gunshot noise came. They all looked at the side and found many people in military uniform standing there, blocking the road.

"Surrender, Scar. I\'m taking you into custody, where you will answer to the murders of at least 10 state alchemists." Colonel Mustang announced. He also noticed Scar\'s red eyes and understood that he was an Ishvalan.

Scar got up from under Ajax\'s soul-piercing gaze. His arm was gravely injured.

"Alchemists alter their bodies, perverting themselves into something vile and grotesque. As an agent of God, I am here to hand down the judgment. If you interfere I will eliminate you as well." Scar threatened.

Ajax was still standing close to him, "Are you sure? You couldn\'t even take a punch from me."

"Hahaha, foolish boy, that was my left hand. But you are right, I can\'t fight like this." Scar said and ran to the side.

Mustang ran forward to stop him. "You\'re not escaping today."

He snapped his finger to make fire but he had forgotten it was raining and his flames wouldn\'t work.

*BAM*

Riza kicked his legs making him fall and saved him from Scar\'s right hand. This gave Scar enough time.

He destroyed the ground and escaped through the tunnels. Right in front of everyone. He didn\'t even try to fight.

"You are useless in days like these, Colonel," Riza said while helping Mustang get up.

Ajax, meanwhile, ran to Edward. "Are you okay?"

Edward got up with the help of one hand. "Yeah, I\'m okay. Al... Check him."

The two quickly went to check Alphonse. He was sitting by the wall. Edward quickly checked the seal in the armor and took a sigh of relief.

Major Armstrong and Riza helped Alphonse and Edward up. They all gathered inside Colonel Mustang\'s office where he told them all about the Ishvalan civil war and how the state alchemists were called to exterminate them.

"In a way, his revenge is justified," Mustang said.

But Edward disagreed, "No way, there is no justification in taking revenge on people who had nothing to do with it. He\'s just killing in the name of revenge for his own twisted love for god and calling himself an agent of God."

Ajax didn\'t agree with Edward, "Well, you are thinking from 1 dimension, Ed. From what I read in the library, It was Ishvalan culture to not accept alchemy. Their religion told them to hate it. Then their country got annexed by Amestris, all the while knowing that they will not accept Amestrian culture.

"Then, what did we do? We exterminated them. Who knows, Scar may have had a family who was also killed in the civil war. Maybe, he also had a brother. But, still, what he is doing is wrong and he should be stopped."

Edward understood what he was trying to say. Edward would have gone after anyone if they did anything to Alphonse, be it a single person or even a country.

Mustang nodded, "That is why we can\'t let ourselves be killed for his cause. Next time, there will be no more talk."

Hughes looked at Edward and asked. "Well, Ed, Alphonse, what are you going to do now? What\'s the plan?"

"We\'re going to keep moving. We cannot just sit around, not as long as we\'re still alive. But first off, I need to get my arm fixed in order to get your body back to normal." Edward firmly decided.

"And we got no choice. It\'s been a long time since we needed to pay a visit to our mechanic," Edward said with a happy face.

"NICE! Let\'s goooo... to another adventure." Ajax also cheered.

Everyone stopped murmuring and looked at him. Colonel Mustang quickly spoiled his mood. "No, you can\'t go with him. He is a state alchemist, but you are a civilian. We can not put you in danger, considering who your grandfather is, this could be problematic. People might target you."

"Huh, you saw me punch that guy, Scar, didn\'t you. I can handle myself. Also, because I am not a government employee, you cannot order me. I can just follow Ed and Alphonse." Ajax replied, making Mustang frown.

Surprisingly, Edward spoke in his support, "Yeah, if it weren\'t for Ajax, Scar would have gotten me. He is really strong. Let\'s not forget the house he blew up belonging to Mr. Tucker."

"He did that?" Major Armstrong asked in wonder and excitement.

He dashed to Ajax and shook his little hand, "I, Strong Arm Alchemist, Alex Louis Armstrong is happy that the future generation also focuses on muscles and the strength of the body."

Ajax looked to the side and made a run for the door before the huge man took off his jacket. "Let\'s meet outside, Ed and Al."

...

The next day, they got on the train to their home. However, an unwanted person was tagging along with them.

Edward looked at Hughes, who was standing by the window outside the train. "Would you mind telling him what he is doing here?"

"What would happen if Scar came after you again?" Hughes asked.

Ajax jumped, "That\'s what I was here for. I would have defeated Scar. Come on, take Major Armstrong with you."

"Children can be so stubborn." major Armstrong muttered.

Edward didn\'t like being called a kid. "Hey, shut up, I\'m no child."

"And it\'s you who takes his clothes off at any chance you get. I am shocked that nobody calls you a pervert." Ajax retorted.

"You won\'t understand it. It is an art."

*TRAIN WHISTLE*

"Okay, you boys have a safe trip. If you come to the central city, stop by my place and say hi." Hughes wished them and saluted each other.

Ajax was instead excited about the steam engine, "Hmm, although the steam engine is backward technology, it\'s got its own beauty."

"What do you mean backward? it is the best technology we got" Edward asked.

"Haha, sure, best." Ajax mockingly laughed and ignored them.

...

Alexander and Dobby headed to the southern border. They were told that the other members of the team would be there waiting.

But when Alexander reached, he was a bit shocked. The three new members were Ragnarok, Iroh, and Leonidas.

"Hahaha, Ragnarok and Iroh are colonels and Leonidas is a Lieutenant Colonel? How did this happen?" Alexander inquired.

"Well, we found ourselves in these clothes in an office. We were then sent here. Ragnarok had experience in such things so we followed his lead." Iroh explained.

"I don\'t even know if we need this much firepower. Well, anyway, let\'s go and see what we need to do. I\'m your boss." Alexander said, pointing to his shoulders and showing them his rank.

"I used to be a general and now this. This is a big demotion." Iroh muttered.

"I am a dragon. Since when did I follow others? I should at least be a mighty general." Ragnarok also voiced his dissatisfaction.

"Haha, stop crying now, follow me." Alexander laughed and led them to the small town called Bellac. South Amestris was mainly Grassland with vast prairies. They were going to go to the forward front through River Aryss.
