American comics start with asking Iron Man a question.

Ultimately, Nick Fury summoned his most loyal confidante, Black Widow, and entrusted her with this important task.

It's believable that Black Widow will fight Hydra alongside Captain America in the future.

"These are some clues I've compiled. I need you to find out exactly where this base is as quickly as possible."

Nick Fury handed over some of the intelligence he had gathered over the past few days to Black Widow, saying, "Report any findings directly to me, or contact the captain."

"Where is this place?" Black Widow glanced at the documents Nick Fury handed her and asked seriously.

Judging from Nick Fury's expression, Black Widow knew that this place must be extraordinary.

"This is the Winter Soldier's hideout." After a moment's thought, Nick Fury decided to tell Black Widow the truth.

"Understood, sir!" Black Widow hurried off.

Chapter 073 Nick Fury's Plea for Help

Stark Tower.

Iron Man gazed at the gleaming triangle in his hand, his face radiating excitement and anticipation.

After so many days of hard work, he finally synthesized the new element.

"Congratulations, sir, you've created a new element." The thoughtful AI Jarvis sent its congratulations immediately.

Without a word, Iron Man, with a hint of excitement, placed the new element into the Arc Reactor.

The arc reactor immediately lit up.

“Sir, the reactor has received the updated core. I will begin testing immediately,” Jarvis said, and then immediately began testing.

The result is undoubtedly clear: the new elements are perfectly usable!

The palladium poisoning problem that had plagued Iron Man for more than half a year was perfectly solved!

Iron Man is currently in a relaxed and happy mood.

"Sir, Miss Pepper is here!"

Jarvis suddenly spoke up to remind him, and Iron Man indeed saw that Pepper Potts had arrived at the door, entered the password, opened the door, and walked straight in.

"God, Tony, have you not slept for days?" Pepper couldn't help but exclaim, covering her mouth.

Iron Man is currently in a terrible state, as if he's on a drug. "What are you doing, locking yourself down there?"

"Pepper, I just synthesized a new element, and I did it!" Iron Man shouted excitedly to Pepper.

"A new element?" But Little Chili was completely bewildered and confused.

I have absolutely no idea what this means.

“Listen, Tony, whatever element you’re synthesizing or whatever else you’re doing, you need to rest right now.”

Pepper Potts earnestly advised Stark, "Listen to me, leave this room and go outside to relax."

“That sounds like a great idea!” Iron Man nodded seriously.

Even if Pepper Potts hadn't said anything, Iron Man was actually planning to go out and relax. The intense work he'd been doing lately was too much for even an "Iron Man" to handle.

"Tony, is that really what you think?"

This caught Pepper Potts completely off guard. The fact that Tony Stark actually listened to advice is truly astounding.

“Of course!” Iron Man suggested enthusiastically, “The Monaco International Motorsport Championship is about to start, how about we go watch the races? Will you come with me?”

"I still have a lot of work to do."

“You’re gone now, I’ll give you a vacation right away,” Iron Man said with unbridled capriciousness. “Your only job now is to accompany your boss to watch races.”

"Tony, you can't do this." Pepper was speechless.

"Of course I can, because I'm your boss."

What else can Little Chili do? She's stuck with such a capricious and extravagantly wealthy CEO; she can only give in to him.

"Sir, I need to remind you that I haven't found anyone who matches the characteristics of that Ivan Vanko yet."

After Pepper Potts left Stark Tower, Jarvis immediately reminded Iron Man, "He's very likely not in America."

Indeed, besides being busy synthesizing new elements, Iron Man has also had Jarvis search for Ivan Vanko.

Unfortunately, Jarvis did find quite a few people named Ivan Vanko, but none of them matched the characteristics described by Iron Man.

“It’s okay… I don’t think it’s that coincidental that he happens to be in Morocco.”

Iron Man was completely unconcerned; how could such a coincidence happen in the world?

After making some quick arrangements, Iron Man took a shower, enjoyed a delicious meal, and felt like he had come back to life.

The next day, Nick Fury received the news and came to Iron Man in person.

“Stark, it seems Howard was right about you.” Nick Fury sat down opposite Iron Man without any ceremony, speaking in a condescending tone.

“Of course he didn’t misjudge me,” Iron Man said matter-of-factly, as humility was a foreign concept to him.

"Alright, Stark, you and I both know I didn't come here to visit you, so let's skip the useless pleasantries and get straight to the point."

Nick Fury sat up straight and said to Iron Man with a serious expression, "I need your help."

Nick Fury helps Iron Man synthesize new elements, and Iron Man helps Nick Fury investigate Hydra—this was something everyone agreed upon after the quiz.

Iron Man, of course, wouldn't renege on his promise.

“Tell me your needs directly,” Iron Man asked crisply.

“I have a large number of people that I need to monitor and analyze, but I can’t use the power of S.H.I.E.L.D., which makes it very difficult for me.”

"So I was wondering if you could provide me with some technical support, such as researching some surveillance drones, giving me a system similar to Jarvis, and so on."

"You are Iron Man, you are a rare genius in America, I think this shouldn't be too difficult for you."

Everyone had seen the video of the quiz system, and Nick Fury didn't try to hide anything, directly stating his purpose.

"I understand. I'll get something done as soon as possible," Iron Man assured him confidently.

Nick Fury left satisfied.

However, what he didn't expect was that Iron Man, who had just promised him to speed up the development, boarded a private plane to Monaco the very next day.

We arrived at the Monaco International Motorsport event.

Iron Man!

Iron Man!

When Iron Man and Pepper Potts stepped out of the luxury car, they were immediately greeted with thunderous cheers.

Even in Europe, Iron Man has a considerable number of enthusiastic fans.

Iron Man was used to this, and with a confident and composed smile, he waved to his enthusiastic fans.

Then, the two of them, Little Chili and Xiao Lajiao, walked into the venue while chatting and laughing.

Happy, who hasn't turned into a chubby little guy yet, followed behind the two of them with a cool and aloof demeanor, wearing sunglasses.

“Pepper, we’re in Europe now, so whatever happens next, let’s just let things take their course, okay?”

Considering that his next move might severely provoke Pepper Potts, Iron Man began to prepare her in advance.

What do you mean by "letting nature take its course"?

Pepper Potts sensed something was wrong. Was Tony up to something again?

My boss has never given me a moment's peace.

Although she is not the CEO now, she feels that she is many times busier than the CEO.

Before Pepper Potts could ask any further questions, many people from all walks of life in high society came over to greet Iron Man.

Little Chili had no chance to ask any further questions.

Chapter 074 Assassination on the Racetrack

After finally exchanging pleasantries with some celebrities in the hall, Iron Man and Pepper Potts were able to slip away.

"Tony, is that really you?"

But before they could even catch their breath, a very familiar voice rang out.

That voice was completely familiar to Iron Man. He instinctively turned his head and saw that it was indeed Justin Hammer, that clown.

"What an annoying guy."

Iron Man pretended not to hear and spoke to Pepper Potts without any attempt to hide his true feelings.

Iron Man already disliked Justin Hammer, and his dislike only intensified after learning that the guy would be working with Ivan Vanko against him.

"It really is you, Tony!"

But Justin Hammer still walked up to Iron Man, his face full of sarcasm, and said, "You know, you're not the only rich person who drives a luxury car."

The two sides then began to exchange sarcastic remarks.

Excuse me for a moment.

After exchanging a few perfunctory words with Justin Hammer, Iron Man greeted Pepper Potts and left.

No one took Iron Man's departure to heart. At most, they thought Iron Man was going to the bathroom or had found some girl who was feeling lonely and needed comforting, so he went to rescue her.

But soon, the entire hall became abuzz with excitement.

Because Iron Man's image began to appear on several televisions hanging in the lobby.

Those televisions were used to broadcast live racing competitions from outside.

On TV, Iron Man was already dressed in a special racing suit and was talking eloquently to the camera on the racetrack.

If you owned a race car, what would you use it for?

"Of course it's for racing, what else would you need it for?"
