Marvel's genius inventor? I'll make a wish-granting dragon with my own hands.

Vibranium is a very rare metallic material in the Marvel Universe.

It can be described as a miracle in materials science.

Legend has it that it was a meteorite from outer space, but in reality it was formed from the remains of the body of the Celestials, the most powerful race in the universe, after their deaths.

It possesses extremely high hardness and density.

Very few of them are available on the market.

The most classic example is the shield that Howard made for Captain America after researching vibranium.

It can be described as invincible, not only able to withstand the impact of bullets and shells, but even absorb explosions.

In later battles, Captain America even used his shield to leap from a height of 100 meters, landing directly on the ground without sustaining any injuries.

In various battles, large and small, it held its own even against Thor's hammer, without suffering a single dent.

The only defeat.

That is, he fell to Thanos's relentless slashing of his two-meter-long sword.

This shows how terrifying this metal is.

And hard.

It is precisely because of the extreme hardness of this metal that the amount circulating in the market is extremely small, and even less in the hands of S.H.I.E.L.D., only a few dozen kilograms, which they themselves are reluctant to use.

Nick Fury was considering that.

Peggy didn't say anything either. As the founder of S.H.I.E.L.D., she knew everything about S.H.I.E.L.D. like the back of her hand.

She understands the value of vibranium.

They understand Nick Fury's stinginess better.

Peggy thought the other party wouldn't budge, but to her utter surprise, Nick Fury actually nodded, and was even quite generous.

"Over the years, my agents have spent at least tens of millions of US dollars on missions and purchases, and have indeed acquired a considerable amount of vibranium."

"Remove those that have already been used and studied."

"There are 47 kilograms left."

"I'll keep 7 kilograms, and you can have the rest."

Peggy was shocked.

He stared at Nick Fury in disbelief, somewhat suspecting that the man was an alien in disguise.

That doesn't make sense!

Tony's eyes lit up, because the quantity he mentioned earlier was just something he said offhand. You have to know that even he, a wealthy arms dealer, couldn't buy that unique metal.

They are basically only available on the black market.

The place of origin cannot be found at all.

Even when they do circulate, they are often snatched up by other forces and kept as treasures, leaving no channel for sale.

Tony hadn't expected Nick to be so wealthy and generous; suddenly, even Nick's dark head seemed quite pleasing to the eye. "How much money do you need?"

"Provided free of charge."

"?"

It's free again.

Tony had a bad feeling, because the last person who smiled and said it was free, Russell, had swindled him out of a billion dollars, making him feel worse than if he had swallowed a fly.

Nick Fury didn't explain why, but simply picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said, "Have Agent Russell come to my office."

He hung up the phone.

He introduced Russell to Tony, saying, "Agent Russell is a highly professional Level 5 agent in our agency. He will be responsible for transactions and communications between Stark Industries and the Strategic Defense, Offensive and Logistics Agency."

"If anything happens in the future, just communicate directly with Agent Russell."

"Don't let things be like today again."

"Remember to use the main gate next time!"

They don't use the main door, they use the window, and they even play DJ music.

I hate people who are even better at pretending than me.

"As for vibranium, I will arrange for Agent Russell to deliver it to Stark Industries tomorrow afternoon."

"There are some other things inside."

"As for what it is, Russell will talk to your father, Howard."

"I hope to see results in three days."

Nick Fury's goal was simple: he wanted to take out the vibranium he had and exchange it for the Super Soldier Serum from Howard.

After all, this was a deal between the two of them.

He didn't say it directly.

After all, this is S.H.I.E.L.D.

His cryptic remarks made Tony frown, because Tony had no idea what connection Howard had with Nick, or what deal they had made.

Even the address of S.H.I.E.L.D. today.

This was the first time he had ever heard of it.

Tony had never known that his father, Howard, had created such a behemoth, a secret service organization.

He knew it even better than anyone else.

99% of things in the world can be solved with money. If money can't solve them, just throw more money at it. But when money really can't solve them, then it means you're really in trouble!

Tony was guessing.

Russell arrived late. He pushed open the door and walked in, feigning surprise as he looked at everyone present. After all, none of them were ordinary people; they were all quite famous.

Black Widow Natasha, the village chief Coulson of the beginner village, the legendary marksman Hawkeye Barton, the tactical mastermind Melinda, and this... Peggy?

Oh, right, there's also a Tony.

Russell was actually fully aware of what was happening on the scene, because the Namekian physique granted him superhuman perception and hearing.

He seemed to have X-ray vision.

Just like Piccolo, who could clearly overhear Future Trunks' conversation with the dog lover even from thousands of meters away, his super hearing is far more exaggerated than Spider-Man's.

He could sense the movements of everyone in the entire building, even their smallest actions.

"Chief, you wanted to see me?"

"Agent Russell, congratulations on your promotion of three ranks, becoming a pillar of the department, namely a Level 5 agent."

Nick Fury took out the promotion report he had prepared beforehand and handed it to Russell. "Starting today, you will be responsible for transactions and communications with Howard and Stark Industries. You will not be under the jurisdiction of anyone else and will only report to me."

Russell did not refuse.

Firstly, S.H.I.E.L.D. is his hiding place, and promotions and demotions are normal for him. He has no intention of revealing his strength, but superheroes attract a lot of trouble, just like Tony in front of him, who loudly proclaims himself to be Iron Man. He's either crashing or on his way to crashing.

Not to mention that unlucky Spider-Man, who's either dying of his uncle, his girlfriend, or on his way to die of Aunt May.

He still planned to play it safe.

Once he's survived until the end of his career and has the strength to dominate, he can then step forward and demand an explanation from the world!

Secondly, S.H.I.E.L.D. is supported by the five permanent members of the UN Security Council.

The ability to travel freely to any country and utilize local military forces will greatly assist in secretly collecting the Dragon Balls throughout the world in the future.

After all, as the saying goes, when you're out in the game, strength alone isn't enough; you also need power, influence, and money, which are all highly desirable.

So Russell feigned surprise and some delight, "A three-level promotion? Really? Does that mean I'll get many times my salary?!"

"Ahem, Agent Russell, things aren't looking good lately, you know..."

"6!"

Actually, S.H.I.E.L.D. isn't short of money.

The main reason was that Nick Fury had received a tip from Natasha that this guy in front of him had used inside information to short Stark Industries' stock.

They made a whopping 1 billion!

A billion dollars, a billion dollars! You could never spend it all in a lifetime. How dare you ask for a raise?

The thought of missing such a great opportunity to make money made his heart bleed; it was enough to cover the amount he had shamelessly embezzled three or four times.

Was it easy for him?

During their conversation.

Tony had already recognized Russell.

He discovered that the other person was the same despicable guy who had jumped around in front of him on the plane and made a lot of money off him.

Tony, being quite petty, immediately objected, "I refuse to have any contact with any men."

"Especially him!"

"No matter what he brings me, I, Tony, would rather die than accept it, even if it means jumping off this building!"

Oh?

Russell smiled.

He took out his phone from his pocket and played a video, which was an exciting one-on-one fight.

The main character in the video is an Iron Man, wearing the same Iron Man suit as Tony Stark, only the color isn't as bright.

The other one is Howard.

Tony's unlucky dad.

The opponent's blows were brutal and merciless, pinning Howard to the ground and beating him relentlessly, even mocking him, "Damn old man, the Iron Man armor your son made is so smooth and slippery! It works so well! It's simply amazing!"

Tony: ?

He stood up abruptly, completely disregarding what he had just said, and took the phone from Russell's hand. Upon seeing that the video inside was actually from his own home security camera, he realized...

His face turned green.

"Obadai! I'll fuck your ancestors!!"
