American comics: Starting as the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast

Chapter 98 Summoning Beasts

After Tony left, Banner continued, "The Mandarin is indeed a very dangerous terrorist leader, but Tony is right. The Avengers are not an official organization and have no obligation to work for the government."

"If you need it, I can investigate the Mandarin's whereabouts for you privately."

"However, don't have too high expectations."

"I'm a scientist, not a professional spy. If S.H.I.E.L.D. and the military can't find his whereabouts, I probably can't either."

Natasha's gaze fell on Roy: "And you, what do you think?"

"His acting skills are quite good. If he were to act in plays and movies, he would probably have a bright future," Roy replied.

Although the Mandarin in the video didn't look like a good person at all, he knew that this Mandarin was just a substitute, a pawn that Killian had put into the open.

Natasha rolled her eyes at him and continued, "You're not planning to do anything about him either?"

"Why should I bother with him? He didn't provoke me."

"He made it very clear in the video that he was educating President Ellis, and that I am not the president."

Roy replied casually.

Natasha sighed helplessly.

She thought she could at least persuade one of Roy's three to join the operation to capture the Mandarin.

Unexpectedly, Roy and the others had no intention of joining.

Is my charm waning?

Or is it because everyone is too familiar with me, and they've all become immune to my temptations?

After a moment's thought, Natasha looked at Roy with a tender gaze and asked in a seductive tone, "If I, on behalf of S.H.I.E.L.D., commissioned you to join the operation to capture the Mandarin, would you accept the commission?"

Roy didn't answer Natasha immediately, his gaze lingering on Natasha's beautiful face and sexy figure.

After a dozen seconds, he finally spoke, saying, "You can't offer me the compensation that interests me right now."

Just as he had guessed, Natasha's request failed the system's assessment.

Although the Mandarin is a well-known villain in the cinematic universe, it is clear that Natasha and S.H.I.E.L.D. cannot activate any commissions related to the Mandarin.

If he wasn't mistaken, only Tony and Pepper's requests could potentially activate the request related to the Mandarin.

After all, the Mandarin was a villain who appeared in the movie Iron Man 3.

"If you change your mind, you can call me anytime."

After saying that, Natasha left the conference room with a helpless expression, preparing to return to S.H.I.E.L.D. headquarters.

After Natasha left, Roy used the Flying Thunder God Technique to return to his Upper East Side villa. He sat on the sofa in the living room and began to seriously consider something.

That is, should we get our hands on the ten-ring in Wenwu's possession beforehand?

Compared to the Ten Commandments in the comics, the Ten Rings in the movie are much weaker.

In the comics, the Ten Commandments possess ten extraordinary abilities, including matter recombination, fire explosions, lightning storms, ice storms, cutting beams, and mental amplification.

In the movie, the ten rings can grant the user immortality and super strength, enhance the user's physical attributes such as endurance, speed, and reaction, and also have the ability to launch shockwaves of energy and launch them to attack or restrict enemies.

Although it can't compare to the Ten Commandments in the comics, the Ten Rings in the movie still have considerable collectible value.

In addition, there is another reason why Roy wants to collect the rings.

That is, he didn't want the ten rings to fall into Shang Qi's hands.

He didn't have a good impression of Wenwu.

But he disliked Shang Qi even more.

Roy made a decision very quickly.

After the incident with the Mandarin and Killian, go find Wenwu and get your hands on his ten-ring.

After getting the ten rings, go to the Tarot and turn the Tarot's dragon into your own summoned beast.

He doesn't know psychic abilities yet.

However, preparing a powerful and impressive summoning beast for yourself in advance is not a bad thing.

Time flies.

President Ellis, who was publicly threatened by the Mandarin, held a press conference, stating that he would do everything in his power to capture the Mandarin and protect public safety.

Then, the Steel Patriot made its debut at a press conference.

Just like in the movie, the person wearing the "Iron Patriot" armor is none other than Tony's good friend, Colonel Rhodes.

Speaking of this, we have to mention President Ellis's pressure on the military.

Roy, Tony, and Banner have no intention of joining the operation to capture the Mandarin.

So he went to the military.

President Ellis pressured the military, and the military pressured Rhodes, instructing him to go to Tony and try to persuade him to join the capture operation.

Although Rhodey was Tony's good friend, Tony still didn't change his mind.

To ensure Rhodes could fulfill his obligations, he gave him the Mark II.

Next, Mark II was transformed into the Iron Patriot by Killian's AIM.

If it weren't for Roy's interference, Rhodes would have obtained the Mark II much earlier and had Hammer Industries transform it into a war machine.

However, getting it now isn't necessarily a bad thing.

In the original timeline, President Ellis also introduced the Iron Patriots during the Mandarin Crisis.

However, his actions were met with unanimous ridicule from the media and the public.

"The Iron Patriot is nothing more than an old war machine that's been repainted!"

"Just because the paint job is changed to red, white, and blue, it's upgraded to Steel Patriot?"

Rod only just received the Mark II, which spared him and President Ellis from ridicule from the media and the public.

Tony was also unhappy to learn that the armor he gave to Rhodes had been named Steel Patriot.

In his view, the naming of Iron Patriot was a mockery of his unwillingness to share the technology of the suit with the authorities, and that he was not patriotic at all.

I'm annoyed as much as I am!

But he did not let Rhodes return the suit to him.

He never asked for anything back after giving it away.

Los Angeles.

Restaurant.

"Iron Patriot, is that the best name you could come up with?" Tony said to Rhodes.

Rhodes quickly replied, "According to opinion polls, the public quite likes this name."

"I still think 'War Machine' is a better name." Tony looked at Rhodes with a serious expression.

"War Machines sounds too powerful; Steel Patriots is more likely to be accepted by the public."

If he could choose for himself, Rhodes would also choose the name War Machine.

Unfortunately, he had no choice.

"I won't mention his name. What's the deal with this Mandarin?"

"Although the military is getting worse, it shouldn't be to the point where they can't even find a terrorist."

"Tony asked."

Rhodes didn't answer immediately. He turned to look around, and after confirming that no one was eavesdropping, he whispered, "This is classified information. Don't reveal it to anyone."

"The public currently only knows that he is involved in three bombings, but according to the investigation, there are a total of nine bombings involving him."

No explosive devices were found in any of the nine bombings.

"To this day, we still don't know what the explosive was."

"

No explosive device?

Tony wasn't particularly interested in capturing the Mandarin.

However, it was discovered that the Mandarin had not carried out three bombings, but nine.

More importantly, after no explosive devices were found in the bombing, he changed his mind and said to Rhodes, "If you can't handle this, I can help."

"I've recently invented a lot of new things, such as new combat suits with a completely new deployment method, and a projectile interceptor that can intercept munitions in mid-air."
