He's in the Marvel universe, and his first step is marrying Scarlet Witch.

Chapter 2 The Prince of the Land of Fire

In the early morning, as the first rays of sunlight shone through the glass window onto Li Chuan's face, he slowly opened his eyes.

Turning his head to look to the side, he realized that Wanda was no longer beside him.

He put on his pajamas, left the bedroom, and walked down the spiraling, golden European-style staircase to the first floor. Soon he heard clanging sounds coming from the kitchen.

"Honey, you're awake! I'm making you crispy potato pancakes, just a moment!"

Wanda poked her head out of the kitchen, holding a frying pan in one hand and a knife in the other.

"Thank you, but I remember you said before that you couldn't cook and that your brother did all the cooking at home, right?"

Li Chuan, with his keen eyesight, spotted what appeared to be several broken pieces of dishes near the kitchen trash can.

Seemingly sensing Li Chuan's gaze, Wanda twitched her fingers slightly, and the few broken pieces of the bowl and plate seemed to grow legs, quickly hiding behind the trash can.

"I consulted my brother a few days ago and I feel like I've grasped the knack of it."

Wanda slightly raised her chin, revealing a confident expression.

Li Chuan is outstanding, handsome, kind, gentle, and rich, while she is just an orphan working in a convenience store, her heart filled with hatred.

She didn't know why Li Chuan had taken a liking to her and had pursued her relentlessly for three years, making her feel what "true love" meant once again.

But she knows that her current happiness is hard-won, and she must cherish it and fulfill her responsibilities as a wife.

So, having never had a talent for cooking, she has recently been asking her brother for advice on cooking, although there are always some minor mishaps.

"Then I'll have to trouble you!"

Li Chuan smiled, went downstairs and gave Wanda an encouraging hug before washing up and getting ready.

Ten minutes later, Li Chuan picked up a crispy potato pancake with his chopsticks, chewed it slowly a few times, and then a strange expression appeared on his face.

"Honey, how is it?"

Wanda sat next to Li Chuan, her eyes filled with anticipation.

"not bad!"

Li Chuan smiled at Wanda. The taste was a little too salty, but still within his acceptable range.

It's much better than when Wanda first cooked for him.

I remember half a year ago, Wanda tried cooking for the first time. He made the simplest steamed crab. At that time, he vowed that he would finish it no matter how bad it tasted. In fact, steamed crab is generally not that bad.

When he opened the lid and reached his chopsticks towards the large red snow crab, the crab grabbed his chopsticks.

It turns out that Wanda was so nervous about cooking for the first time that she turned on the wrong stove, and the large snow crab she bought was already quite reddish, so it all turned into a blunder.

In fact, when two people are together, it is already quite difficult for one person to be willing to change for the other.

Life shouldn't always be about being petty and calculating.

"One serving definitely won't be enough for you, so I'll go make another one!"

Upon hearing Li Chuan's answer, Wanda's smile blossomed like a flower, and she hopped back to the kitchen like a little girl, shovel in hand.

"Huh!"

Seeing this, Li Chuan smiled and shook his head, then picked up a second potato pancake with his chopsticks and put it in his mouth. This time, however, a strange look appeared in his eyes again.

Because this time it wasn't salty at all, and the overall flavor had improved several levels.

Then he thought of Wanda's abilities and felt relieved. Modifying reality was something that had happened before since he had spent time with Wanda.

After breakfast, Wanda, wearing an apron, waved a spatula at Li Chuan and said:

"Honey, come home early tonight, I'll make you Asturian stew!"

"Okay, then I'll leave work a little early."

Li Chuan kissed Wanda on the forehead, smiled and gave her a thumbs-up, then picked up his briefcase and left.

In the villa's courtyard, an elderly man in his fifties saw Li Chuan appear and skillfully opened the car door for him.

"Good morning, young master!"

Good morning, Uncle Li!

Li Chuan nodded and got into the car.

"Has anything been going on lately?"

"Young Master, we've found the mastermind behind the recent attacks on our group. It's Bavi from Raymond Pharmaceuticals. What should we do?"

Uncle Li slowly drove away from the villa while reporting to Li Chuan.

Li Chuan said coldly:

"Tell Xiao Wu that he can go out to sea to feed the fish again."

In just three years, the Li family's business was able to rise from a third-rate enterprise to a top-tier one. This was not because Li Chuan had any extraordinary business talent; he was just a martial artist who fought in underground boxing matches, so how could he possibly know anything about business?

There are two main reasons.

First, Li Chuan would give some of the body-strengthening ointments and pills he obtained from side quests to the company's scientists for research, thereby creating many best-selling new products.

Secondly, he is ruthless in his actions and never hesitates to take action against opponents who like to sabotage him or engage in malicious competition.

Besides spending a lot of money to hire assassins on the dark web, he sometimes takes matters into his own hands and even personally trains a group of subordinates to handle such matters.

In any case, most of the people who opposed him in those three years were eventually thrown into the sea by his men to be fed to the fish.

Of course, on the surface he is Sokovia’s youngest genius entrepreneur and a recognized philanthropist. The charitable foundation he founded has helped many poor people whose families were torn apart by war more than a decade ago, and he is deeply loved by the local people of Sokovia.

Upon arriving at the company, Li Chuan finished handling all his affairs, took a deep breath, and opened the virtual panel in his office.

"It's time to enter the small world."

"Your Highness, Your Highness, it's time for lunch."

In a daze, Li Chuan was awakened by a voice, and then a memory that did not belong to him instantly flooded his mind.

"Kino, I understand."

Yuanchuan, 20 years old, is the son of the deceased daimyo of the Land of Fire and a prince of the Land of Fire. He has little power in the Land of Fire, but he is of noble status and has a considerable fortune.

This is the identity that Li Chuan was given after entering the Naruto world.

The woman in front of him, named Ji Nai, was the steward of the Prince's Mansion, responsible for Li Chuan's daily life and managing the entire mansion.

He was sunbathing in the courtyard of the Prince's Mansion and fell asleep because it was so comfortable.

After rising and having finished his lavish lunch with the help of Ji Nai and other servants, Li Chuan instructed Ji Nai:

"Prepare the horses, I'm going to the Fire Temple this afternoon."

Li Chuan didn't come to the Naruto world to enjoy life. As a wealthy man in the modern world, why would he need to come to the backward world of Naruto to enjoy life?

His purpose in coming to the Naruto world was simple: to learn ninjutsu and become stronger.

Of course, if one could acquire some special technology from this world and use it to help expand their group back in the main world, that would be great too.

Within the Land of Fire, there are two places where one can systematically learn ninjutsu: one is Konoha, the strongest ninja village, and the other is the Fire Temple, the ninja temple of the Land of Fire.

Other wandering ninjas and ninjas recruited by nobles were mostly not very strong and did not have any impressive ninjutsu, so they were not within Li Chuan's consideration.

The Fire Temple's lineage is definitely much weaker than that of Konoha. Currently, the temple's strongest member is only Jiraiya, an elite Jonin.

But he's safe. There aren't as many messy and dirty things in Konoha, no old villains like Danzo and the Third Hokage, no backstabbing among the major clans, and with his status as a prince of the Land of Fire, he's definitely the first choice to learn ninjutsu at the start.

Most importantly, even if he risked going to Konoha to learn ninjutsu, Konoha would never actually teach him those powerful ninjutsu; at most, they would just give him a perfunctory lesson because of his status.

The relationship between Konoha and the Land of Fire is not as harmonious as one might imagine.

"Yes, Your Highness!"

Although Ji Nai was somewhat surprised to hear Li Chuan's order, he still nodded respectfully.

The prince was an aloof person who disliked socializing and rarely participated in noble activities. His sudden desire to go to the Fire Temple outside the city was indeed somewhat unexpected.

However, as a noble prince, he could go wherever he wanted, and she, as a servant, only needed to follow orders.

The Prince's Mansion had its own carriages and drivers, so Li Chuan quickly boarded the luxurious carriage with Ji Nai's help, and headed towards the Fire Temple with a group of servants and samurai guards.
