"Wait…Captain America?" Naruto asked incredulously.
It was Agent Romanoff who responded, "He was a genetically engineered super soldier."
"That's not what gets me aboutCaptain America. What kinda name is that?"
The two's side conversation was interrupted by a loud cough from Nick. Seeing that the two's attention was on him again, "His plan was stopped by Captain America, with both the Captain and Schmidt dying in the process. With Hydra leaderless and crippled they quickly fell apart. Eventually however, Hydra has begun to resurface, with small cells popping up all along the world." Fury flipped a page over in the file, revealing a picture of an old looking military base. "This is one of Hydra's Weapons Research facilities. It is near the Austrian village Sankt Georgen an der Gusen. We've recently gotten intel that there has been heavy activity there. We believe that they are restarting their weapons research program." He then flipped it over to the next couple pages. "This is Eric Williams, aka the Grim Reaper, who is a known Hydra Agent. A month ago he was spotted entering the facility along with men carrying in large containers and equipment."
Naruto pushed himself off the wall, turning fully towards Nick, "And what exactly is it you want me to do? Infiltration? Assassination? Demolition? All of the above?"
Both Nick and Romanoff looked at Naruto strangely, "What exactly did you do on your planet?" Fury asked.
Naruto weighed the options of telling him what he was before sighing, "I guess the easiest way to explain it would be a mix between a samurai and a ninja from your world. We called ourselves Shinobi. We were essentially soldiers, whose main financial support was partaking in missions that varied in variety and difficulty. These missions go from protection or escort details, assassination, information gathering, and so on."
"How old were you when you became a…shinobi?" Romanoff asked with a hint of trepidation.
"12." Naruto said, not really seeing the big deal.
"You were sent on assassination missions when you were 12 years old?" Romanoff asked in shock.
Naruto shook his head, "No, that was saved for the more experienced." At hearing that Romanoff seemed to calm down.
Fury began to look at Naruto in a new light. This boy, he'd been a child soldier. The way he responded as though it wasn't a big deal. The way Naruto discreetly scanned the café both before and after Fury arrived. The subtle signs he had seen so many times before. This boy had been through war.
"We cannot allow Eric Williams to continue with his weapons research. You're to infiltrate the Sankt Georgen base and destroy it along with making sure Williams is taken out. As you're doing that, you will be accompanied by a team of my agents who are going to 'acquire' whatever information they can on what's going on in there. Understood?"
Naruto nodded, "And who's on this team?"
Nick nodded to Agent Romanoff, who stepped forward, "I will be leading the team. You'll meet the others later on our way out."
Naruto raised an eye brow at her but shrugged, "Alright whatever, when are we leaving?"
Fury stood up, "We just need to wait on the explosives you'll be using and for your teammates to arrive."
Naruto smirked, "Trust me, I'm not gonna need explosives."
"Damn straight."
