Tony Stark looked at Nolan, while Pepper Potts beside him pouted.

"As expected, you two scoundrels are birds of a feather."

Tony immediately retorted:

"Hey Pepper, get this straight, you're all I have right now!"

If he had known he would suffer such an undeserved disaster, he shouldn't have invited Nolan Locke to join him on the trip.

Isn't a life just the two of you with Chili Peppers wonderful?

"I'm so crazy."

He was internally ranting and raving.

Nolan wasn't in a good mood either.

Although there were three women around him, it was obvious to anyone with eyes to the truth about the relationship between them.

He originally only planned to bring Jessica Jones, since she was his only official girlfriend.

Unexpectedly, Sharon Carter, his secretary, overheard his phone call with Tony Stark and then told Daisy Johnson about it.

Ultimately, Daisy Johnson came to their door, and Sharon Carter was waiting at the airport quite naturally as the three of them were preparing to leave.

From that moment on, Nolan knew that his trip to Hawaii would be very difficult.

As for why he accepted Tony Stark's invitation, the reason is simple: New York has that perverted woman, Carol Danvers.

If I don't come out for a walk, am I supposed to just stay there and wait for her to cause trouble?

That would be insane.

Nolan believes that Tony Stark shares the same idea.

Otherwise, how could he have dragged me on a trip just a few days after I was discharged from the hospital?

While the four girls went swimming, Nolan and Tony Stark sat together.

"Buddy, hiding like this isn't a good idea."

Tony Stark began to speak.

Nolan rested his hands on the back of his head, looking completely indifferent.

"What do you want?"

Anyway, he could do research in the systems lab, and he wasn't short of money, plus the company had a reliable president like Simon Phillips.

He could spend a whole year here with Carol Danvers!

He simply didn't believe that Carol Danvers would stay on Earth forever.

It's important to know that the title "Captain Marvel" wasn't earned on Earth.

She's very busy.

If you can't afford to mess with a woman like that, you might as well avoid her.

Nolan chuckled.

Head-to-head?

If he weren't a time traveler, he probably really would have done that.

But now, I'm sorry.

He prefers wisdom.

Tony Stark looked at Nolan and said seductively:

"Do you want to beat her up and get revenge? I have a rough idea, maybe we can give it a try."

Hearing Tony Stark's words, Nolan looked at him with a strange expression and decisively said:

"Since it's an immature idea, you don't need to say anything."

You know, even my Titan armor was dismantled into a pile of parts by her. Unless you have something better, I'd rather stay here.

Upon hearing this, Tony Stark's face turned angry, and he sat up abruptly.

"Nolan Locke, are you even a man? You chickened out in front of a woman!"

Nolan chuckled softly.

"Given up?"

Being afraid when you can't win is cowardice; what I'm doing is merely a strategic retreat.

"You talk as if you can beat her."

"That's hard to say," Nolan thought to himself.

But in the end, he still looked at the distant sea with a smile.

This is such a relaxing place.

Tony Stark reluctantly lay back down.

Okay, he was just saying that.

How to deal with that woman?

He wasn't so sure.

However, he still glanced at Nolan with disdain.

What a coward, trash!

As expected, I, Tony Stark, am not afraid of losing.

It's just that my teammates were too cowardly.

Thinking this, a rare smile appeared on Tony Stark's face.

"Tony, the injury on your face doesn't look like it's healed yet. Will that affect how the girls like you?"

Suddenly, the smile on Tony Stark's face vanished.

Fuck! That damn Nolan Locke!

……

As the two were talking, in the distance, a man covered in a tight-fitting suit and wearing a hood was looking at them with a monocular telescope.

After glancing at it a few times, he tossed the binoculars aside and chuckled.

"The women here are really good quality."

"Neuropathy."

A beautiful woman in a bikini happened to pass by, cursed at someone, and then turned and left.

The man didn't seem to care. He pulled up his pants, picked up the two knives lying to the side, and weighed them in his hands.

"It feels really good."

Muttering to himself, he grabbed the knife and shoved it into the scabbard behind him.

Next second,

"Fake!"

A scream sounded.

Two knives were precisely embedded in his shoulders.

This scream caught the attention of Nolan and his companion.

Tony Stark's eyes widened in disbelief.

"Is that person an idiot?"

Nolan paused for a moment, then laughed.

Seemingly noticing their gaze, the man greeted them.

Tony Stark couldn't help but shout:

"Hey buddy, whether you're doing acrobatics or whatever, you need to go to the hospital now!"

Upon hearing Tony Stark's words, the man actually pulled out the two knives from his shoulder.

Even Tony Stark felt pain watching that action.

"This guy is really crazy."

Tony Stark grumbled.

Nolan rolled his eyes and said:

“Tony, you need to get this straight. This madman you’re talking about is here to kill us.”

"what!"

Tony Stark was genuinely shocked.

That seemingly crazy idiot is actually an assassin?

Soon, the man walked over, and somehow, his shoulder, which should have been seriously injured, had recovered.

Apart from the two holes in the already tattered bodysuit, it seemed that what had just happened was just an illusion.

"Mr. Stark, Mr. Locke, it's a pleasure to meet you. May I shake your hands?"

As he spoke, the man nervously rubbed his hands together; well, he had already dropped the knife on the ground.

Tony Stark's expression grew increasingly strange.

He looked at Nolan with a suspicious gaze.

You're saying this is an assassin?

His eyes perfectly conveyed this meaning.

Nolan glanced at Tony Stark and shrugged.

Although it was hard to believe, he was certain that this man was indeed an assassin, and a notorious anti-hero at that.
