After enjoying the close-up view of the Shield and Iron pairing, Johnson, misunderstood by Natasha, glared resentfully at the woman.
Before I could explain, I was urged by the captain's gaze to change my outfit with a single click and set off immediately.
Damn it, I'll make sure you know whether I'm the one or not when I have time!
……
Deep space of the universe.
The Bertana has been traveling in space for more than ten days, and neither the condition of the spacecraft nor its speed is ideal.
Even the usually arrogant Tony Stark felt a pessimistic mood, but he still showed optimism and positivity in front of his colleague Nebula.
Only when he is alone does a hint of sadness appear in his eyes.
As Iron Man who has already died once, Tony himself is not afraid of death. What he regrets is that his promise to Pepper Potts may never be fulfilled.
Especially after that damn snap, he knew nothing about anything on Earth. At this moment, Pepper Potts, thousands of light-years away, must be feeling exactly the same way he does.
Due to the scarcity of water and food, Tony had become much thinner than when he landed on Titan, and his spirits had been worn down to rock bottom by the silence of deep space. If anyone else had experienced this predicament, they would probably have been on the verge of collapse long ago.
"Let's rest for a while."
Behind him came Nebula's emotionless voice. Tony saw the blue woman's reflection in the porthole, but he sensed a deep concern in her voice.
Nebula solemnly reminded him, "You are an ordinary human. If you don't sleep for a long time, your body won't be able to take it."
"Thank you. Now that you mention it, I do feel a bit tired," Tony nodded wearily, forcing a smile. "I'll go rest in a bit."
Tony turned around, but could tell from Nebula's expression that she wasn't listening to him.
In fact, at this moment, Nebula's attention was no longer on Tony, but on a meteor that was hurtling toward their spaceship through the porthole.
With most of her body modified, Nebula's naked-eye vision far surpasses that of Tony, who is an ordinary human.
"Oh no! We're going to crash!"
She leaped into the cockpit and tried to steer the spaceship to avoid the impact of the meteor.
Tony, who was standing still, turned around and looked outside the spaceship. He tilted his head slightly, and three question marks appeared on his forehead.
???
"Is it because I haven't eaten properly for too long that I'm hallucinating?"
Tony squinted, startled by the light, and muttered to himself in confusion, "Why did I see a blond man in that shooting star?"
Nebula, who was trying to make an emergency turn of the spaceship, was also stunned: "...What?"
The next moment, endless light shone into the spaceship.
The two involuntarily squinted, and in the light they saw a tall figure wearing a scarlet cloak and a jet-black lightning suit standing outside the spaceship.
dong dong dong...
“Mr. Tony Stark, someone has booked your return ticket to Earth,” Johnson knocked on the porthole, then his figure flashed and appeared inside the spaceship. “Please pay the balance, thank you.”
Upon hearing the word "Earth," which felt particularly familiar, Tony Stark felt as if a huge weight had been lifted from his heart.
"Phew—" He couldn't help but take a deep breath to calm himself down, then shrugged nonchalantly and took out his phone, which showed no signal, from his pocket, saying, "Then I'll have to get my phone connected to Earth's network, sir."
“Don’t worry, the internet will be back soon, but for now…” Johnson glanced at Tony Stark’s pale face and raised his hand, “You might need some additional medical services.”
"No, I feel great... Oh my gosh!!"
Tony was forced to grasp Johnson's hand, and instantly, a burning sensation that made his blood boil surged through his entire body!
The next second, he felt the damage to his body caused by so many days of hunger and cold vanish in an instant, and even the heavy wound from Thanos stabbing him was completely healed!
"Damn it, what have you done!"
Upon hearing Tony's shout, Nebula instinctively grabbed her pistol and aimed it at Johnson.
"Don't do anything, Nebula! He didn't hurt me; on the contrary, he completely healed me!"
Tony Stark tried to stop the angry Nebula while lifting his shirt to look at his own body.
Sure enough, the wound that Nebula had roughly stitched up disappeared without a trace, leaving not even a scar.
Tony exclaimed dramatically, "Oh my god, I should recommend you to Pepper Potts! You're the best doctor I've ever met!"
The "super treatment" instantly restored his body to its best condition, even better than before!
"If you're willing to get into the medical aesthetics industry, I'm willing to invest the full amount in you, I'm serious, buddy!"
Chapter 351 Iron Man Returns
Tony pinched his biceps, which seemed even stronger than before, his face filled with disbelief.
"When we get back to Earth, I'll get two lifetime VIP membership cards for Chili and me from your place."
"Really? My fees are very high."
"Don't worry, money is absolutely not a problem."
“Okay, that’s a good suggestion,” Johnson said, releasing Tony’s hand and smiling after discussing the prospects of the medical aesthetics industry. “If I ever need money, I’ll consider opening a private clinic.”
Tony nodded seriously: "Trust me, buddy, you're going to make a fortune!"
The next moment, he took a deep breath, extended his hand to Johnson again, and said, "Perhaps you could give me your business card; I'll keep it safe."
Johnson shook hands with him and said, "You can call me Johnson."
“Okay, Johnson…” Tony shook hands firmly, as if releasing all the emotions he had been feeling lately. “Thank you.”
Johnson patted Tony Stark on the back understandingly; anyone who sees hope in dire straits would inevitably be moved.
Even if he is Iron Man.
The atmosphere in the cabin visibly shifted towards sentimentality. Johnson joked, "Alright, don't get too excited yet. This ride is on a charge."
After calming down, Tony Stark smiled and said, "Of course, I don't have a habit of being in debt."
Upon hearing this, Qiao Sen immediately snapped his fingers.
After ten days of practice, Johnson no longer needs to use his hands to spin around like a beginner when using the "Dimensional Gate," and can now control it in any posture.
This is similar to clapping your hands together; after all, magic and ninjutsu are just different in their energy systems, but their basic principles are largely the same.
In an instant, a golden portal appeared in front of the spaceship, and under the active power supply of Qiao Sen, it expanded to a size large enough for the spaceship to pass through.
A blue planet appeared before Tony Stark and Nebula through a portal, a scene that had appeared countless times in Tony's dreams, causing his eyes to well up with tears.
"Let's go, it's time for our Iron Man to go home."
"Okay, let's go home."
……
late at night.
A deafening roar echoed over the new Avengers base, and the captains and the others who remained rushed out of the base, only to be greeted by a breathtaking sight.
Dressed in a jet-black battle suit, Johnson held up a spaceship disproportionate to his size with both hands, his cape fluttering behind him, as he smoothly swept across the sky above the base and landed on the open lawn of the base.
The heroes watched as the hatch on the belly of the spaceship opened, and two figures strode out.
One of them was none other than Iron Man, Tony Stark, whom they knew well.
"He did it..."
The captain murmured, while Little Chili beside him excitedly covered her mouth.
Tony and Nebula stepped off the spaceship and approached Johnson, saying with strange expressions, "Although this spaceship is not enough to support interstellar travel, it still has enough fuel to fly back here from the outer edge of Earth's atmosphere."
"No, no, no, Tony, your vision is too narrow." Johnson walked forward side by side with Tony, shaking his head and pressing it to his chest. Suddenly, the black Superman suit with lightning bolt appeared with fantastical particle effects and folded away.
"You know, this will make my rescue across thousands of light-years seem more valuable, and it will undoubtedly look cooler to carry a spaceship back than to come back in a spaceship."
"Oh!" Tony exclaimed dramatically, his eyes wide. "You win! I really can't argue with that answer! But what's with your suit? I remember you applied for a patent with the World Intellectual Property Organization a long time ago?"
Johnson, now dressed casually, shrugged and said, "I told you, yours is technology, mine is just special effects."
“That’s impossible! No special effects are worth $3.5 million—that’s the cost of my nanotech armor prototype,” Tony shook his head vigorously, insisting, “I don’t believe it unless you’re willing to lend it to me to study.”
"Whatever you like, just pay the rent and Luffy's fare together."
"No problem, I'll give you a blank check later, and you can fill in any amount you want on it."
“The boss is awesome!”
While chatting, Johnson and his two companions arrived in front of the avenging heroes who had come to greet them.
"Tony..."
Captain America led the heroes to meet Tony, marking their first meeting since the Avengers Civil War.
The captain's expression was complicated, and he forced a smile, saying, "You look pretty good, and I didn't expect you and Johnson to get along so well."
“I’m fine, Steve.”
Tony remained calm; those who knew him well knew he didn't like to show his emotions easily.
At this moment, the two clasped hands tightly, and Tony said, "I've hired Johnson as my personal physician, but he hasn't agreed yet. I'm trying to persuade him."
Upon hearing this, everyone exchanged bewildered glances.
