American comics start with asking Iron Man a question.

From this point of view alone, it is impossible to determine whether these enemies are aliens or Earthlings wearing corresponding armor.

However, judging from the armor they wore and the weapons they carried, it was a very unique style.

"Is this our enemy?" Nick Fury stared intently at the battle on the screen, trying hard to memorize it.

This is extremely important intelligence.

“Sir, we can’t be sure if they are aliens,” Black Widow interjected. “However, since the higher-ups are willing to launch a nuclear missile to destroy the entire city of New York in order to eliminate them, the possibility is still very high.”

If it were a war between Earthlings, why would the bigwigs at S.H.I.E.L.D. issue such extreme orders?

Everyone knows what kind of weapons nuclear weapons are, and there is almost no possibility of them being used in modern warfare.

Unless America is about to be destroyed.

But the United States is currently the most powerful country in the world, leading the world in technology, military, and all other aspects. Is it possible for this situation to recur?

And that's just the worst-case scenario. In reality, even if the United States were to be destroyed one day, Black Widow couldn't be sure that the United States would actually launch a nuclear missile.

It's just a possibility.

From this perspective, there is a high possibility that those enemies are aliens.

"Jarvis, send all the energy into the thrusters!"

On the screen, Iron Man gave Jarvis a command, then broke through the enemy's encirclement and took to the sky.

laugh!

Meanwhile, S.H.I.E.L.D.'s warplanes had already launched the nuclear missile.

A nuclear bomb, with its long tail trailing behind it, shot towards the heart of New York City.

Although this has not yet happened, Nick Fury, Black Widow, and others watching on screen couldn't help but feel a sense of tension and hold their breath.

Their eyes were glued to the screen, eager to see how Iron Man would intercept the nuclear bomb.

Iron Man himself was also very curious about what methods he would use in the future to safely intercept this nuclear bomb.

But what happened next was a huge surprise to them.

"I know where it went!"

Iron Man spoke into the communication channel, then piloted his Iron Man suit and caught up with the nuclear bomb, catching it with both hands.

"Jarvis, use all your energy to turn!"

Iron Man gave Jarvis an order, and it seems that Iron Man plans to personally take the nuclear bomb and fly away from New York!

Nick Fury: "..."

Black Widow: "..."

Iron Man: "..."

They had previously assumed that Iron Man must have used some high-tech means to intercept the nuclear bomb, but who would have thought that it wasn't!

On the contrary, it is this simple, crude, and primitive method.

However, if that's the case...

"Tony Stark, I never imagined you would decide to sacrifice your life for New York!" Nick Fury looked at Iron Man with newfound respect.

Using this method to intercept nuclear missiles is tantamount to suicide!

Black Widow also stared at Iron Man with disbelief. She really hadn't realized that this arrogant man was actually like this at heart.

Chapter 024 The Truth About the Battle of New York

Not only Nick Fury and Black Widow, but even Iron Man himself was somewhat surprised that his future self would do something so suicidal.

Will my future self be so enlightened?

That truly shows they were prepared to die.

Iron Man pondered to himself, if a nuclear missile were to be launched right now, would he, like in the video, be willing to sacrifice his own life to save New York?

After some thought, Iron Man realized... he didn't know either!

An assumption is always just an assumption.

The hypothetical scenario and the actual scenario are completely different things.

No one can guarantee what they will do if they are not actually in that position or have actually experienced the various things that happen in real situations.

However, if I were to see myself in the future, truly prepared to die to save New York, I imagine I would be much more mature and composed than I am now.

He is even more deserving of the title Iron Man.

"But Stark, nuclear bombs are not ordinary bombs. It's simply unrealistic to try to take them out of New York this way."

"Moreover, the video already stated that the nuclear bomb would explode within one minute!"

Nick Fury's voice rang out again, interrupting Iron Man's thoughts.

Iron Man nodded: "At the speed of the Iron Man armor, the nuclear bomb wouldn't even make it out of New York; it would explode midway, and New York would still be in nuclear crisis."

"'I know where it went,' but where will I, in the future, send the nuclear bomb?"

Nick Fury, Black Widow, and Iron Man were all very curious about this, their eyes glued to the screen, eager to see where Iron Man would send the nuclear bomb.

"Sir, should I contact Miss Pepper?"

on the screen.

Jarvis began to actively seek Iron Man's opinion.

Clearly, Jarvis, whose intelligence is in no way inferior to that of humans, also believes that Iron Man is more likely to sacrifice himself based on the current situation.

That's why I brought up this suggestion on my own initiative.

"Let's get in touch!"

Iron Man thought for a moment, then said emphatically.

Iron Man, watching from the screen, felt a surge of secret satisfaction. The footage from the previous round of questions and the final battle had already shown that he and Pepper Potts were very likely to become partners.

This scene undoubtedly confirms that point once again.

However, reality is often disappointing. In the future, Iron Man, facing a life-or-death moment, tries to contact the person most important to him, but fails to do so.

Because Pepper Potts' entire focus was on that globally anticipated New York battle.

"The streets of New York City have become a battlefield, and the military has arrived and is trying to control the situation."

"But it's clear they're no match for us."

On a flight, Little Chili watched the news on TV with a serious and tense expression.

Beside her, her phone displayed a call from Iron Man, but Pepper Potts was completely absorbed by the news and didn't notice.

“I have to say I’ve never seen anything like this in my career.”

“We don’t know much about this response team yet, but we recognize Iron Man, millionaire Tony Stark.”

Upon seeing this, Nick Fury's single eye revealed a thoughtful expression. Could this response team in the news be the Avengers?

Nick Fury thinks it's still very possible.

Wasn't his original intention in forming the Avengers precisely to deal with this kind of situation?

The news reports said that even the military was no match for them, and the entire war was made possible by that response team.

Since the response team included Tony Stark (Iron Man), the other members should also be of the same caliber as Tony Stark; they shouldn't be ordinary people.

Isn't that the Avengers?

His previous failure to intercept a fighter jet carrying nuclear weapons, and his immediate contact with Iron Man, is further evidence of this.

Nick Fury couldn't help but feel secretly thrilled; the Avengers' plan had truly succeeded!

In the future, he did indeed successfully form this alliance, and played a crucial role in a critical moment when humanity was in danger!

On the screen.

Iron Man continued flying, holding the nuclear bomb aloft, and as it swept across a street, he suddenly began to swerve the bomb.

Carrying a nuclear bomb, it flew into the sky.

During this process, two figures flashed by on the street.

One of them was wearing armor, carrying a cloak, and holding a hammer. It was clear at a glance that he was no ordinary person, because ordinary people would not dress like that on a battlefield.

Beside the armored man stood another person, someone everyone was more familiar with.

"Sir, it's Captain America!"

Black Widow's gaze sharpened slightly as she spoke to Nick Fury.

Nick Fury nodded. Judging from the appearance of "Caped Man" and Captain America, they had clearly been through a fierce battle.

The bald man immediately realized that this caped man and Captain America were most likely members of the Avengers.

"That hammer..." Iron Man looked at the hammer in the capeman's hand and felt it looked very familiar.

He quickly remembered that hammer—wasn't it the one Captain America used to smash Thanos with in Endgame?

How did it end up in someone else's hands?

However, due to a lack of necessary information, Iron Man was unaware of this issue.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Iron Man, carrying a nuclear bomb, continued to ascend into the sky, until finally, he flew into a portal resembling a wormhole.

"So, I was supposed to send the nuclear bomb into this portal."

Iron Man in front of the screen suddenly realized that Nick Fury and Black Widow were the same.

At this moment, everyone finally understood what Iron Man meant when he said, "I know where to put it."

But at the same time, a new question arises: how did a portal appear in the sky above New York City?

"Could this be Stark's way of intercepting nuclear missiles? By opening a spatial portal?" Black Widow clicked her tongue slightly.

“No, this wasn’t done by Stark. ‘I know where it goes,’ it’s obvious that this portal has been there all along.”
