Natasha Romanov was born in Stalingrad, Soviet Union in 1928. From a young age, she was trained as a spy by Soviet agents, and her aging process was significantly slowed by modifications made by the Soviet government.

She enhanced her immune system and resilience, and with years of physical and mental training, she became like the deadly Black Widow, later betraying the Soviet intelligence organization Starscream and joining S.H.I.E.L.D.

After saying that, Ye Ritian ignored the reactions of everyone present, including Tony and his wife, who were shocked. He walked up to Roschman, who was on high alert and shifted his legs slightly to adjust his fighting posture.

"How could this be? How could he have been discovered? Who is he? Why does he know so much about my past?! Who is this Chinese man?!"

As Ye Ritian approached step by step, Roshman, or rather, Natasha the Black Widow, was extremely anxious and bewildered. Her plan was so well-thought-out, so why was it discovered?

Ye Ritian stopped in front of Natasha, and before he could react, Natasha decided to strike first.

A blurry, eerie movement appeared, and thinking it was a feint, he raised his right hand.

He pulled out a dagger from somewhere and stabbed at Ye Ritian.

"what"

Upon seeing this, Pepper screamed in fright. Tony quickly shielded Pepper and retreated, immediately donning the portable suitcase-style exoskeleton armor. It's worth mentioning that the power source was a palladium reactor.

Although palladium is toxic, unfortunately, that was because Tony had a hole in his chest that connected to an electromagnet to hold the shrapnel. Now that the hole is gone, palladium cannot act on the human body.

Tony can act without restraint, but the price is that without palladium poisoning, how can he access his father Howard's legacy and develop a new miniature arc reactor—that is, cold fusion?

Chapter 17 Introduces Tony to S.H.I.E.L.D.

On the other side, Fury and Coulson saw Ye Ritian and Natasha fighting, and immediately tried to escape. However, before they could even take three steps...

Natasha was grabbed by the arm by Ye Ritian and thrown out of the bulletproof glass of the floor-to-ceiling window right before their eyes.

Outside is a cliff tens of meters high, and below are bright, sharp rocks that have been washed by the sea for many years!

At this moment, no one thought the glass was unreliable; only a fool would think that, without even considering who their opponent was.

"call!"

"hiss!"

Everyone gasped. Today's experience was definitely the biggest shock they had experienced in the past year, including Tony. Tony said that compared to his encounter with Ye Ritian, he suddenly found terrorists quite adorable!

Ye Ritian didn't care at all. After Ethan was carried out by the mechanical arm arranged by Jarvis, only Tony, Potts, Fury, and Coulson remained.

Unexpectedly, Natasha couldn't even last three seconds, losing before she could even land a single move. Fury and Coulson thought to themselves, "We're doomed! We should have known better than to run!"

However, they didn't blame Natasha. It wasn't that she was incompetent, but rather that the enemy was too strong. Both of them had seen Ye Ritian's data.

Because of this awareness, it's like the mind has been vaccinated, so no matter what Ye Ritian does, it's acceptable!

Ye Ritian looked at the two people whose faces were ashen and chuckled.

"Did I just say I let you go? I just wanted to tease you and scare Roshman to see if she was Natasha, to see her reaction. I didn't expect that when I went over to take a closer look, she couldn't help but make the first move."

"Furthermore, when I spoke of her past, a slight, unusual glint flashed in her eyes, but I caught it. You have too many flaws."

"One of you can't take being teased, and the other can't take being scared. You'd better leave! Don't mess with me again, or I really will wipe you out!"

Listening to Ye Ritian's story, Fury and Coulson remained silent, offering no rebuttal. This time, it wasn't that they dared not refute, but rather that they truly couldn't, because Ye Ritian was right.

He then hurriedly left, quickly arranging for people to rescue Natasha. Even without Fury saying it, Coulson knew that he had to find her alive or dead; Natasha had to be brought back!

Seeing that everyone had left, Tony took off his armor and remembered what Coulson had said about his father. Helpless, he decided to ask about it another day. The death of his parents had always been a deep-seated pain in Tony's heart, but no one knew that he had also longed for a childhood!

Tony said

"Jarvis, get someone to replace the glass. Also, send me a text to the racetrack; I'm not going."

"Yes, sir"

Jarvis said.

Tony pulled Potts closer to Ye Ritian, sat her down on the sofa, and gently patted her hand, seemingly to comfort her and tell her not to be afraid of Ye Ritian, that it was okay, and that he was here for her!

"Ye, how did you find out that Roschman was with S.H.I.E.L.D.? Or did you have some kind of premonition?"

"It won't hurt to tell you this; I'll also give you a little more information!"

"Oh, thank you then. What is it?"

"Nick Fury, the director and commander of S.H.I.E.L.D., possesses the highest authority and rank, Level 10. He has been injected with the super serum, but the effect is not significant, even weak. Fury's abilities are more reflected in his overall vision, strategy, tactics, and tactical guidance."

"Airship Commander Maria Hill, Level 8 Agent, is intelligent, perceptive, knows when to advance and retreat, and acts decisively, but she is just an ordinary person."

"Natasha Romanov, that's the one from just now, a Level 7 agent, known as the Black Widow, who was injected with a super serum and has become incredibly resilient."

Despite aging and declining abilities, he may look like he's in his thirties, but he's actually over sixty and has lost his fertility. He's also proficient in various martial arts and possesses superb fighting skills.

Having participated in numerous assassination missions, her primary identity is that of a spy, moving between organizations in multiple countries; calling her an assassin wouldn't be an exaggeration.

She's quick, ruthless, accurate, and patient; it's just a pity she lacks ability. Otherwise, given her personality, she might very well have made a name for herself!

Ye Ritian remarked that, in some ways, Natasha was quite outstanding. Compared to other superheroes who constantly fly, unleash thunder, or grow larger and smash buildings,

Even archers who never miss their target are the only ones who are truly weak!

While they sighed at Ye Ritian's plight, Tony and Potts reacted differently, praising him.

"I never imagined that Luo... Natasha had such a past, that's really amazing!"

"Yeah, Potts, are you as good as her...?"

"screw you……!"

Tony teased Potts, which angered Pepper Potts so much that she grabbed a file folder and hit Tony with it!

Ignoring them, Ye Ritian went to the freezer, took out a Lafite wine, and continued speaking.

"The last one is also a Level 7 agent named Lint Barton. He's an archer, and it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say he's a crack shot. He also has superb martial arts skills and is very good at close combat, even slightly better than Natasha!"

"The rest of the members are all top elites in their respective fields of electronic engineering, research, electronic computing, monitoring, security, and defense, so there's no need to go into details!"

"S.H.I.E.L.D. was one of the founders of your father, Howard Stark. He was involved, providing funding, advice, and materials to build the aircraft carrier. Captain America Steve Rogers' shield was also forged by him using vibranium, a small amount of adamantium, and some of the hardest metals on Earth, all fused together. It incorporates multiple materials, which is why it's said that Captain America's shield is irreplaceable. It's not just that the person who created it is no longer here; it wouldn't work even without the materials!"

Upon hearing Ye Ritian's remarks about his father, Tony became much more serious and listened attentively. After all, Potts was his father-in-law, even though he was no longer alive.

Chapter 18 S.H.I.E.L.D. can't afford to mess with Ye Ritian

"Oh, I see! So I'm part of S.H.I.E.L.D."

After listening to Ye Ritian's story and learning that it was his father who had done all this, Tony then thought about himself and whether he could inherit the benefits of S.H.I.E.L.D. Tony had to admit that S.H.I.E.L.D. was a very powerful organization, and it would be profitable to be associated with it and get some benefits!

Ye Ritian, unaware of his thoughts, nodded.

"Theoretically, that's correct. Also, your father left you an exhibition city map, which he was unable to develop due to the technological limitations of the time."

So, find some time to retrieve it. It's not just something your father left you; it's a revolutionary product—a small arc reactor, the development of new elements and energy sources.

It generates 20 billion joules of energy per second. Don't underestimate this amount of energy; it could power a city for twenty years!

Upon hearing this, the two were stunned; there was so much important information. Tony's respect for Ye Ritian grew even stronger!

Ye Ritian continued

"Alright, that's about all I have to say. You have a friend who's here to see you. Go and deal with it. Your Make 4 is the new element Arc Reactor, Tony. With your intelligence, developing it shouldn't be a problem. I'm going to rest."

Without giving the two a chance to react, Ye Ritian returned to his room and went to sleep. How boring! He decided to kill time by sleeping!

Tony nodded, completely unsuspecting!

He then quickly recounted all the events involving Ye Ritian that he knew and had witnessed to Potts from beginning to end. Potts covered his mouth in shock after listening and suggested that he should treat him well. Tony replied, "Do you even need to tell me that?"

"Sir, someone is looking for you. Their name is Ivan Vanko, Mr. Howard..."

"Alright, Jarvis, no need to say anything more. I know. I've heard Obadiah mention him before, and I've already looked up his information. That madman!"

Tony interrupted Jarvis's introduction and prepared to go out to fight, while Potts went to handle company business!

SHIELD

Coulson and Barton stood by Fury's bedside, listening intently as Fury spoke.

"Immediately classify Ye Ritian as a top secret and most dangerous person, increase security, and summon all those who know about or have viewed Ye Ritian's related materials and video surveillance to sign a confidentiality agreement. Anyone who refuses to come or leaks information will be executed!"

Furthermore, the order was rescinded: all measures targeting Ye Ritian were withdrawn, and no rash actions were to be taken for the time being; all surveillance of him was to be lifted!

Colson replied

"Yes!"

Patton frowned

"Is he really that strong? Let me go!"

Upon hearing this, Coulson and Fury were shocked. Fury jumped out of bed and said...

"Hawkeye, execute the order!"

"Notify all departments to expedite the research on the Cosmic Cube. How's the progress on the doctor's end?"

"We've made progress! We've managed to extract a tiny bit of the power of the Cosmic Cube. If we use it to create weapons, the power will be dozens of times greater than our original weapons!"

"Very good, go carry out the orders, and while you're at it, check on how Natasha is doing!"

"Yes, Chief."

"Yes, Chief."

As Hawkeye and Coulson walked out of the medical room, Fury sighed heavily, slowly lay down, and continued to recuperate.

His injuries were relatively minor, at most a slight crack in both kneecaps. If it were an ordinary person, both legs would have been amputated long ago. This is because he had received serum injections, so his body is in good condition and he will recover in ten days!
