Tony and Sean arrived at the edge of the cliff and gazed out at the endless sea.
Sean stepped forward, closed his eyes, and slowly took a deep breath.
Hmm…
So this Asian guy really is using some kind of mysterious unique martial art, huh?
I definitely can’t underestimate this bald guy!
Sean’s imposing aura had managed to intimidate Tony.
He now somewhat believed Sean’s boastful claim about being the strongest person in his world, and his expression became serious.
Tony switched into scientist mode.
His reputation as a genius wasn’t for nothing.
He had always been deeply interested in things like this.
Sean maintained the same pose for more than five minutes.
Tony was beginning to lose patience.
Does using yourl energy really take this long?
And you claim to be the strongest person in the world?
If you keep posing like this, some ten-year-old kid with a little knife could probably kill you!
Do people in your world always have to strike a pose before fighting?
Tony shook his head and was just about to tell Sean to stop posing when Sean finally moved.
Tony, who had already reached out to pull him back, froze for a moment.
He then took several steps backward and looked at Sean expectantly.
Sean slowly raised both clenched fists to either side until his arms formed a straight line.
He opened his fists into palms, facing them toward the sky, and relaxed his body.
His tightly closed eyes finally opened.
His sharp gaze locked onto the distant sun.
The light in his eyes seemed as though it wanted to pierce straight through the sun itself.
That ridiculous bald head of his was actually dazzling beneath the sunlight.
Standing at the edge of the cliff, Sean’s tall, straight figure appeared incredibly resolute in the radiance, as though nothing in existence could ever knock him down.The reflected sunlight was so bright that Tony could barely keep his eyes open.
He forcibly squinted and stared at Sean’s handsome, upright back.
He didn’t want to miss what came next.
Perhaps this moment would remain in his memory forever.
And it really did.
Years later, Tony would still bring up this very scene just to make fun of Sean.
“What great weather! This is actually my first time coming to the seaside. It’s so comfortable here. No wonder you chose to live here, Tony. You really know how to enjoy yourself!”
Feeling the pleasant breeze against his face, Sean couldn’t help but sigh in appreciation.
Tony was absolutely certain that if he had a gun in his hand right now, he would shoot Sean without hesitation.
Who cared if this guy was from another world?
Damn it!
He’d been posing for so long, acting like he was some incredible badass, only to end up standing there enjoying the scenery!
And Tony had been stupid enough to stand beside him for half a day.
If anyone found out about this, how was he supposed to pick up women in the future?
Rhodey would laugh his ass off.
But Tony had genuinely misunderstood Sean.
Sean really was enjoying himself.
He just wasn’t enjoying the scenery.
He was enjoying this world.
He had already decided that he wasn’t going back to his original world.
He was an orphan there, and there weren’t many people he had any real connections with.
At most, there were the few troublemaking friends from his dormitory.
As for a girlfriend?
That was an even rarer species.
Now that he had arrived in this Marvel world filled with heroes, Sean couldn’t help but feel his blood surge at the thought of meeting all those famous heroes and villains in the future.
And he could even fight them.A heat he had never felt before surged through his entire body.
“Goddamn bald guy! If you’re going to do something, hurry up! If you keep posing, I’ll kick you off the cliff and then you can roll back to wherever you came from!”
Tony’s furious shout came from beside him.
Of course, JARVIS translated his words through the watch on Tony’s wrist.
“Oh, right! I got too caught up enjoying myself. Haha!”
Sean laughed sheepishly.
Then he casually swung his left fist toward the sea.
It was a casual punch.
But the sea reacted violently.
The moment Sean threw his fist, the force behind it erupted with a thunderous roar and tore through the air.
It transformed into the shape of a gigantic dragon, surging across the surface of the ocean.
The sea was blasted apart.
It was like the legendary story of Moses raising his staff and parting the sea, creating a passage through the water.
The difference was that Sean’s punch was so powerful that the force of it caused the seawater to boil and evaporate outright.
The seawater surged upward, forming a gigantic wave that rolled violently to both sides.
Massive rocks blocking its path were instantly shattered upon contact, exploding into countless fragments that scattered across the ocean with a series of splashes.
“This… this… ”
Tony’s genius brain completely crashed.
He stood there dumbfounded, staring at the scene before him, his mouth hanging slightly open and his pupils widened in shock.
What the hell…
Am I still drunk?
Yeah.
That’s it.
Heh heh.
I knew this was impossible.I must still be dreaming.
Sean must just be some character my drunken brain made up.
Yeah, yeah…
But why the hell is he bald?
“Slap!”
Tony viciously slapped himself across the face, hoping to wake himself from the dream.
“Tony? Hey, Tony, wake up!”
Seeing Tony looking like an idiot while even slapping himself, Sean became worried that he’d scared the genius scientist stupid.
If Iron Man got ruined because of him, that would be a serious problem.
“Uh… huh?!!!”
The red mark on Tony’s face showed just how hard he had slapped himself.
It was enough to bring him back to his senses.
Tony realized he wasn’t dreaming.
He turned his head toward Sean, then looked back at the ocean, which had already been covered by seawater again but was still churning violently.
He swallowed hard.
This was real!!
This…
wasn’t scientific!
What the hell kind of ridiculous setting was this?!
Tony stared at Sean in terror.
He was afraid that Sean might give him a slap just like the one he’d given himself.
Forget whether his handsome face would survive it.
He wasn’t even sure there would be enough of his ashes left to bury.
At this point, Tony completely believed Sean’s story.
Even those ridiculous claims about his insane training could no longer be dismissed as nonsense.Helicarrier, Command Center.
Nick Fury looked at the report in his hands, his brow gradually furrowing.
A violent disturbance had occurred in the waters off Black’s Beach in San Diego, California.
Yet there had been no energy signature whatsoever.
“Tell Natasha she has a mission. ”
After thinking for a moment, the one-eyed black director decided to send Black Widow herself to investigate the cause.
Fury couldn’t afford to take this incident lightly.
The person living in that area was Tony Stark, the owner of Stark Industries and a major arms dealer.
Between Stark Industries’ weapons supplies and its economic partnerships, Fury had plenty of reasons to take Tony’s safety seriously.
If anything happened to Tony, it could cause a major disaster.
So he immediately dispatched one of S.H.I.E.L.D.
‘s top agents, Black Widow, to investigae.
