Tony Stark, with the palladium reactor as his heart, was suffering from palladium poisoning. He believed he had only a few months to live, so he threw caution to the wind.
He entrusted his company to his secretary and lover, Pepper, and went to Morocco to participate in a dangerous racing competition.
Arthur pondered for a moment, then took out his newly purchased mobile phone and searched for the location of Monaco. He planned to check it out tomorrow.
He wanted to meet this eccentric billionaire who was also a genuine hero.
When Arthur saw Tony Stark snap his fingers, sacrificing his own life without hesitation in [Avengers 4], he was profoundly moved. That level of self-sacrifice was something Arthur could never possess.
If faced with a choice where sacrificing his own life could save others, Arthur would prioritize his own survival and perhaps observe a three-second silence afterwards. That was who Arthur was, an extremely selfish man.
...
The Principality of Monaco, a city-state in Europe, is located in the south of France.
It is the second smallest country in the world after the Vatican, with a land area of only 1.98 square kilometers.
Arthur planned to fly directly there. Since he had regained his body, it didn't take much time to fly from the United States to Hong Kong. (In one episode, Xiaoyu used the mechanical acceleration of the Rabbit Charm to even reach the speed of light and traveled to Uncle Long's youth. There's no need to delve into how many times
the speed of sound or how many Machs. It's too troublesome to check the information, and the author has been detained by words!)
As Arthur flew, he admired the scenery along the way. With the Snake Charm, he had no fear of being discovered. It took just over an hour to arrive in Monaco, and he stopped in mid-air. There was no better place than this.
Arthur instantly noticed a sneaky figure lurking in a corner, and upon closer inspection, he recognized Ivan Vanko.
However, Arthur wasn't in a hurry to take action. He owed Tony Stark a great debt for saving his life when he was in the gravest danger.
Not to mention Tony Stark's trillions of dollars in net worth, his designs and inventions alone made Arthur incredibly envious.
Arthur didn't care about the steel armor or anything like that; the Hulk could easily tear it apart, let alone Arthur.
The main reason he wanted to approach Tony was to ask for help in creating an artificial intelligence like Jarvis. Later, Jarvis transformed into Vision, but Tony designed another artificial intelligence called Friday, indicating that it wasn't a difficult task for him. Since the savior asked for his assistance, he couldn't bring himself to refuse.
"Welcome to the Monaco Grand Prix. This is the highly anticipated track. The race will begin in half an hour. Please take your seats according to your ticket number!"
The host's voice boomed, attempting to build excitement in the audience.
As time ticked by, amidst the cheers of the crowd, the racers took to the stage one by one, and the race was about to commence.
Suddenly, the audience erupted into deafening screams.
It turned out that the famous billionaire, Iron Man Tony Stark, had donned his racing suit and appeared before everyone's eyes.
From his appearance, it seemed he intended to compete in the race himself.
And when he kicked one of the racers off the stage, it became evident that he was truly determined to do so.
Tony opened the door and yelled loudly into the camera:
"It would be a pity if you have a car to race and not go to the race."
This sentence caused another burst of screams from fans.
The arena officials also changed the name of a player on the scene to Tony Stark.
Arthur had already seen Ivan Vanko standing not far from the field, and the show was about to begin.
There was a deep sound of engines, and the players were all ready.
With the green light on the track, all the cars rushed out like rockets.
Ivan Vanko took off his hat, revealing his messy long hair. With a reactor installed in his chest, he walked slowly onto the track.
"Sir, the game has already started, you can't change positions at will, this will affect other spectators!"
Seeing Ivan Vanko's strange behavior, the nearby staff hurriedly dissuaded him.
On the track, a racing car was driving fast, and Ivan Vanko showed no fear, nor did he have the slightest intention to block it.
When the racing car approached and was about to hit Ivan Vanko, a pair of whips suddenly appeared in Ivan Vanko's hands, and under the energy of the reactor, they became radiant.
A whip was aimed at the head of the car, splitting the car in half in an instant!
The racing car was completely scrapped, and the people inside were also completely finished.
"Oh my god!"
Seeing this scene, the narrator couldn't help but exclaim.
The audience at the scene also let out a loud exclamation, and the police who maintained law and order also ran over quickly.
At this time, Tony, who was ranked second, just arrived. Seeing the reactor on Ivan Vanko's chest, Tony's eyes widened. Before he could react, Ivan Vanko whipped him over.
The end of Tony's racing car was the same as that of the previous one. It was cut into two sections by Ivan Vanko, and the whole body turned over.
But as expected of the son of luck, he didn't suffer any injuries.
However, Ivan Vanko had already walked towards him with a whip, ready to do something shameful.
"It's time!"
Arthur thought to himself, and then landed from the sky.
"Go to hell, Tony Stark!"
After finishing speaking, Ivan Vanko wanted to whip Tony.
Suddenly a strong wind blew up, and when everyone looked again, there was an extra person on the scene at some point, holding Ivan Vanko's electric whip in his hand with little effect.
"Who are you?"
Ivan Vanko yelled angrily, he almost succeeded in revenge.
"I, a Superman driven by interest!"
Arthur pretended to reply, and with a sudden force in his hand, he grabbed the whip.
Ivan Vanko wanted to swing another whip.
Arthur disappeared in an instant, then appeared in front of him, inserted his hand directly into his chest, and dug out the reactor.
Ivan Vanko, who had lost the reactor, immediately fell to the ground.
"Hello, Iron Man!"
Arthur turned around and greeted the stunned Tony Stark.
"God... god, am I dreaming?"
Tony said in shock, and then seemed to remember something.
"Wait... I think I saw you... on the news last night, you were the self-proclaimed 'Superman' guy who defeated the monsters that wrecked New York City!"
"That's right! I am justice incarnate, Superman!"
