Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 718 Tony's Invitation to Enroll

Half a month passed in a flash.

With the United Nations approving the establishment of the Extraordinary Academy, the location of the first academy has been decided: in the suburbs of New York.

Meanwhile, advertisements for the Extraordinary Academy were released all over the world, and the academy began to openly recruit students, with all children who had awakened superpowers eligible to apply.

Another trending topic is Wakanda. With Wakanda announcing a 3-ton vibranium mine, even with the backing of several major corporations, it has still attracted the attention of many countries and companies. During this period, tourism to Wakanda has become popular.

Fortunately, Shuri has repaired Wakanda's barrier, and the real Wakanda has once again hidden itself. The exposed fake Wakanda has prevented the spies, who were using tourism as a pretext, from finding any useful information.

······
the other side.

Peter Parker, who was at the school, also saw the news of the establishment of the Extraordinary Academy. At this moment, Ned, who was standing next to him, spoke up:
"That's awesome! The Extraordinary Academy is established!"

"It's a pity I didn't awaken any superpowers, otherwise I really wanted to go to this school."

"Peter, do you think Gu Ziyun and Piggy Hero will go?"

Peter Parker stepped in to correct him:

"It's Spider-Man. You really know how to give them names."

Ned began by saying:
"That's not important, but will they go to the Extraordinary Academy?"

Peter Parker asked curiously:
"Spider-Man hasn't even shown his face yet, how can you think he's old enough to enroll in school? Maybe he's already an adult?"

Ned then spoke up:
"Didn't you check the Spider-Man fan forums?"

"Everyone had already made their guesses and unanimously agreed that Spider-Man was a teenager just like us."

Upon hearing Ned's words, Peter Parker also began to ponder whether he needed to go to the Extraordinary Academy.

In the end, Peter Parker shook his head and refused to reveal that he was Spider-Man.

Peter Parker, who had originally won the prize money for the top 16, didn't dare to reveal that he was Spider-Man because of some words of concern from Aunt May.

As the school bell rang, Peter Parker and Ned ended their discussion about whether Spider-Man would go to the Extraordinary Academy.

······
The Queen.

After school, Peter Parker hummed a song as he walked home. Since winning the prize money from the top 16, his life had become much easier. Although he didn't dare to tell Aunt May openly, he would find ways to supplement his family's income.

The things he brought home each time weren't very valuable; sometimes it was some fruit, sometimes a pizza, all because they were his reward for diligent work.

As for the remaining money, Peter Parker is already thinking about how to make it generate more money.

He skillfully took out his keys, opened the door, and immediately greeted everyone upon entering:

"Aunt Mei."

Aunt Mei asked:
How was school today?

Parker put down his backpack and said:
"Okay."

“There’s an amazing luxury car parked outside.”

As he was speaking, Peter Parker saw Tony Stark sitting on the sofa and froze on the spot.

Tony looked at Peter Parker and said:
"Hi, Parker."

Peter Parker took off his headphones and asked in surprise:

"Well, what?"

How could you...?

"You... how did you get here?"

Tony said:
"We should meet up. You should have received my email, right?"

Peter asked in surprise:
"Yes, I think so..."

Aunt Mei then spoke up:
“You never mentioned any funding.”

Peter asked in confusion:
"About the funding?"

Tony added:
"September Fund".

Upon hearing about the fund, Peter realized what it meant and said:
"Correct."

Tony also said:
"Correct."

"Didn't you apply?"

Peter hadn't actually applied, but he still played along and said:

"Yes."

Tony continued:

"I've approved it, so we can start working together."

Aunt May was still saying in surprise:
"You never told me about this. Why did you keep it from me?"

Peter began by saying:
"I know you've always liked surprises, so I wanted to tell you... me later."

Peter looked at Tony and said:
What did I apply for?

Tony said:
"That's what I'm here to discuss."

Peter began by saying:
"Okay, let's discuss it."

Tony then praised Aunt May, saying:
"I can't believe you're already an aunt."

Aunt Mei said with a smile:

"Well, everyone's situation is different."

Tony continued:

"This walnut honey bread... is so delicious."

Peter began by saying:
"I'd like to interrupt for a moment."

Tony says:

"Say"

Peter voiced his doubts:

"Is this funding you're talking about related to money or not?"

Tony said:
"Yes, we have plenty of funds."

Peter exclaimed in admiration:
"Really? Wow!"

Tony said with a smile:

"Think about who I am."

Then he said to Aunt Mei:

"Can I talk to him alone for a while?"

Aunt Mei nodded and said:
"of course."

Peter Parker then led Tony to his room.

After Tony entered the room, he immediately locked the door and spat the cookie in his mouth into the trash can.

"As a walnut and date bread, it's passable."

Then, looking at the computer in Peter Parker's room, he exclaimed in surprise:

"Oh, wow, what is this?"

"Retro tech?"

"Where did you find this? At a flea market?"

"Wait, what is this?"

"It's great that the autographed photo of me and Smith Doyle isn't a pirated copy."

"Yes, there's also a signed photo of Captain Steve. You must have gotten this from Steve at the World Martial Arts Tournament."

Tony picked up the three most prominent photo frames on the table and looked at them. This kid really was a fan of him, Smith, and the captain.

Peter said quickly:

"The items were picked up from a garbage dump."

"As for the autographed photos, they are my treasures and have always been well preserved."

Tony smiled, then looked at the antique computer and said:

"Are you making use of waste?"

Peter Parker thought for a moment, then said directly:
"Actually, how should I put it?"

“I never applied for your funding.”

Tony interrupted:
"Um, let me go first."

Peter nodded and said:
"Ok."

Tony took out his phone and then said:
"Let me ask a few questions I already know the answer to." "This is you, isn't it?"

A video was projected onto the phone, showing a person wearing spider pajamas performing at the World Martial Arts Tournament, and someone using spider silk to block a swing on the street to stop a car thief.

Peter Parker denied it:
"Uh...no."

Tony asked:

"What do you mean?"

Then another video was played, and it was said:

"Look at your skills."

Wow! Great catch!

"Three thousand pounds, forty miles per hour."

"That wasn't easy, you're really amazing."

Peter Parker denied it:
"That...that's from a video website, right?"

"You found it online, right?"

"That's all fake, it's all computer-generated."

Tony pointed to the combat power detector he was wearing and said:
"You should understand that in the face of this thing, even superhumans cannot hide themselves."

Peter Parker glanced at the combat power detector with some envy. Even the richest student in his class didn't have one.

"Well, it seems I can't hide it anymore."

"That's right, I am Spider-Man."

Tony chuckled, took a stick from the room, and poked it into a spot on the ceiling. The next second, Peter Parker's Spider-Man suit fell down.

What's hidden here?

Peter Parker caught the Spider-Man suit and said:
"As you can see, this is my Spider-Man suit."

Tony looked at Peter Parker and then said:
"Your baby pajamas are quite rare."

Peter Parker countered:
"These are not baby pajamas."

Then he continued:

"Mr. Stark, what brings you here?"

Tony then asked:
"It seems you haven't told your family about your abilities and your place in the top 16 of the World Martial Arts Tournament."

Peter Parker nodded:

"If my aunt knew what I could do, she would be terrified."

"If she panics, I'll panic too, and then..."

Tony nodded thoughtfully. It seemed that popular science education was not enough. Even with the current status of superhumans, there were still quite a few people who dared not tell their families. The existence of the Superhuman Academy would change this.

At this moment, Tony took a device out of his Spider-Man suit and said:
"Do you know what I think is the coolest?"

"This kind of net!"

"The tensile strength is off the charts! Who made this?"

As he spoke, he tossed it to Peter Parker.

Peter Parker put it back in the closet and then said:
"I did it."

Tony searched his suit again and said:
"Climbing the wall? How did you do that?"

"Sticky gloves?"

Parker explained:
"It's a long story, but it's a unique ability of mine..."

At this moment, Tony, holding the sunglasses on his mask, said in surprise:

"Good heavens! How can you see anything while wearing this?"

Seeing this, Parker snatched the clothes away and said:
"Yes, yes, I can see."

Tony tried on his sunglasses and said:
"I can't see anything."

Peter Parker put the clothes back in the closet and then explained:

"I can see things while wearing it, okay?"

"It's just that... something happened that made my senses extremely sharp."

"Because I receive so much information, I rely on it to help me concentrate."

Tony then spoke up:
"It needs to be upgraded and replaced."

Back when Tony was at World's Number One Martial Arts, he already had the idea of ​​making a real battle suit for Parker instead of using this cheap baby pajamas.

"A complete overhaul from head to toe."

Tony looked at Peter, then asked:
Why do these things?

"What's the motive?"

What motivates you to get out of bed every day?

Peter began by saying:
“I used to be an ordinary person, and I only gained this ability a few months ago.”

"I read books and build computers."

"Also, by the way, I really want to play rugby."

"We couldn't fight before, now we absolutely cannot fight."

"I really like the World Martial Arts Tournament, but there's only one such tournament right now."

Tony nodded and said:

"Yes, you are different now."

Peter nodded and said:
"Yes, but I can't tell anyone yet."

Tony Stark then asked:
"I came to you because of why you didn't enroll in the Extraordinary Academy."

Peter Parker exclaimed in surprise:
"Ah, this matter..."

Tony continued, "..."
“I am one of the professors at the Extraordinary Academy, and I have been paying attention to you since the World's Number One Martial Arts Tournament.”

"Why didn't you register?"

Peter Parker began by saying:
"I can't let Aunt Mei worry, and I can't drop out of school and disappoint her."

"Besides, I'm doing well at school. I can control my strength and won't hurt my classmates."

Tony thought about it for a moment after hearing that, and then said:
"You have such strength at your age, and you know how to control yourself and have done a lot of street hero things."

What are your own thoughts?

Peter Parker immediately spoke up:
"I do not know."

"I just don't want people to get hurt, and I have the ability to stop these things from happening."

Tony asked:
"Are you really not planning to go to the Extraordinary Academy?"

"Your abilities will be well developed there, and you might even be able to join superhero teams like The Boys or The Afterlife after graduation."

"It's not impossible that he might even become a reserve member of the Avengers."

Peter Parker was a little excited at this moment, but when he glanced at the door, he saw his Aunt May outside.

Peter quickly said:

"I'm serious, I can't just drop out of school like this."

Upon hearing Peter Parker's choice, Tony Stark thought for a moment and decided to respect it. He took out a business card, placed it on the table, and said:
"I respect your choice."

"There's still some time before the start of the Extraordinary Academy. If you'd like to enroll during this period, feel free to call me anytime."

Looking at the business card Tony had placed down, Peter Parker asked:
"If I don't enter the Extraordinary Academy, will I still be able to do the things that only superheroes can do?"

Hearing Peter Parker's words, Tony almost laughed to himself, but still said:
"You don't have to become a superhero to do things that save and help others."

"It's not that you can be considered a superhero only if you do those things."

"But you're still a child, don't put too much pressure on yourself."

"Just like you said, your main task now is to put your aunt at ease, and secondly, to finish your studies and get into university as soon as possible."

"As for what some superheroes do, some of your actions right now are quite good."

"Don't get involved in what I do, and even more so, don't do things that I wouldn't do myself."

"You have to find the balance yourself."

"Of course I'd prefer you to call me; the Extraordinary Academy is a better fit for you."
