Marvel's female superheroine travels through multiple worlds

“You mean, these companies can share and exchange business and technology?” Pepper asked, her eyes wide with disbelief.

She had heard of Blackwatch, the organization founded by Supergirl, but had never heard of Blackwatch's reputation outside of the community.

This organization, which operated quietly and without any publicity, unexpectedly controlled such a large number of companies, even exceeding the size of Stark Industries.

"Of course, you can choose a few. As long as you make money, the shareholders and investors won't say anything," Tony suggested casually, wiping away the beads of sweat with a towel.

In the past two years, in addition to researching steel armor technology, he also took over the overall management of all companies under Blackwatch.

This is one of the reasons why he chose Pepper to be the CEO of Stark Industries, because he himself was simply too busy.

“It seems you are fully capable of solving the problem yourself.” At that moment, a voice suddenly came from the side.

Tony looked up and spotted a familiar face—Natasha Romanoff, standing to the side smiling and holding documents. She was dressed in business attire and looked stunning; no wonder Happy was distracted.

"Hey, Agent Romanov, long time no see. How have you been?"

"Did you change jobs? Is the salary from S.H.I.E.L.D. too low, so you came to my company to earn some extra money?" A hint of surprise flashed in Tony's eyes, but he quickly regained his composure and teased him jokingly.

Natasha rolled her eyes coquettishly and replied with a smile, "Stop fooling around, Stark. I'm here to carry out a mission assigned by my superiors. You can't make things difficult for me. With Luna not around, do you know how many people are watching you?"

Compared to the original story where Black Widow was ordered to infiltrate Stark Industries, the two had already fought together two years prior, completely destroying the infamous Red Room.

Therefore, they can be considered comrades-in-arms, and their relationship is not distant.

As for the companies controlled by Blackwatch, Natasha knew a little about them, but chose not to reveal it.

"I know, but I feel relieved that you're here."

"Aren't S.H.I.E.L.D.'s super agents a piece of cake for dealing with those little trash?" Tony joked with a grin, showing no sign of nervousness.

“I’m serious. Intelligence indicates that the Ministry of Defense and the military are preparing to take some coercive measures against you to force you to hand over the Iron Man armor technology.”

"You know, they're not as reasonable as S.H.I.E.L.D."

Natasha's expression turned serious, and she solemnly warned him.

“Let them come, I’ll knock their teeth out!” Tony said sharply, his voice low.

Sorry, he's never afraid of challenges.

Before leaving, Lu Yunmeng handed over the authority to mobilize the Shadow Guards of Black Watch to him.

Within Stark Industries, there are over 1000 Black Watch Shadows on standby at all times.

Tony will show any force that tries to infiltrate or use underhanded tactics what professionalism is.

"Wait, you two know each other?" Pepper looked at the two of them with a hint of jealousy and finally interjected.

The young woman in front of her was someone she had personally interviewed; she was a newly hired consultant for Stark Industries' legal department.

She has an impressive resume and a high degree, and is also intelligent and capable.

She originally intended to train this person as a senior assistant, but little did she know that this person knew the 'big boss'.

"Hmm, we've known each other for two years."

"Let me introduce you, Natasha Romanoff, an agent of S.H.I.E.L.D." Tony nodded and introduced her naturally.

“Miss Pepper, I was ordered to provide you and Mr. Stark with secret protection, and I apologize for not telling you the truth,” Natasha said bluntly, no longer bothering to pretend.

Pepper's face showed a hint of doubt.

She knows her boyfriend's past womanizing history very well; could it be another romantic entanglement he left behind?

“Agent Romanov, why don’t you go up there and show us your skills? That would make it more believable.” Tony took a sip of his chlorophyll drink and pointed to Happy in the boxing ring.

"Well, hopefully it won't leave this big guy with any psychological trauma." Natasha shook her head with a laugh, took off her high heels, and walked onto the boxing ring.

"Don't hurt him, okay?" Tony asked in a low voice, a strange look on his face.

“I will.” Natasha turned around and smiled, a sly glint in her eyes.

Chapter 61 Good Luck

Natasha Romanov swayed her slender waist and walked gracefully onto the boxing ring.

Her demeanor was alluring yet languid, and her emerald green eyes were captivating, as if they could speak.

Happy stared at her intently, completely captivated by her charm.

Aside from Lu Yunmeng, this was the first time he had ever seen such a beautiful woman with both looks and temperament.

Superwoman is unapproachable, but the girl in front of me seems to be an old acquaintance of the boss. Could she be one of the cover girls?

Happy doesn't remember if this person appeared in Time magazine, but he knows he's "in love."

Because he was far away, Happy didn't hear what the group was saying.

His grin stretched almost to his ears as he asked, "Have you ever tried boxing?"

"Hmm." Natasha nodded, answering frankly.

She's not just involved in boxing; she's beaten up several top boxing coaches.

"Like combat aerobics, body shaping exercises, yoga, or something like that?" Happy asked with a beaming smile and admiring eyes.

“Natasha, Happy is my bodyguard. He’s a boxing champion. You don’t need to hold back; he can handle you.” Tony said with a wicked grin from the audience, adding fuel to the fire.

"Really?" Natasha looked the fat man up and down and asked doubtfully.

From a professional perspective, although this man looks fat, he should have a decent amount of muscle mass, but that's about it.

She's beaten up big guys before, as long as they're not super soldiers like Steve Rogers, it's fine.

Since Tony had given her his assurance, she decided to take it a little more seriously.

“Of course, I’m talking about Happy Hogan, the 65kg boxing champion of the American Professional League in 94.” Happy put his hands on his hips, gave Tony a knowing look, and said proudly.

"Tony, didn't you say she was a secret agent?" Pepper whispered, leaning closer to ask, puzzled.

“That’s right, a top-tier agent, the elite of the elite, capable of taking on those big guys from WWE with his bare hands.” Tony said in a low voice, like a thief.

"Just wait and see, Happy's going to get a beating."

Pepper glared at Tony reproachfully, but secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

It has to be admitted that Natasha's looks, appearance, and temperament surpassed her own, which made her feel quite insecure.

"The first rule in the boxing ring: Never take your eyes off your opponent."

Happy noticed that Natasha seemed a little distracted, so he kindly reminded her and deliberately slowed down his punches, gently extending his gloved hand to her.

But who would have thought that the next second, he was spun around and his heavy body slammed onto the boxing ring.

The punch she had just thrown triggered Natasha's instinctive reaction. She twisted his wrist with one hand, raised her legs to trap Happy's head, and then spun around to support herself on the ground, delivering a standard judo grappling move that left him helpless.

"Oh my God!" Pepper exclaimed, her eyes wide with surprise, completely oblivious to Natasha's actions.

Happy was so engulfed by those two deadly legs that his face turned red and his neck bulged. He almost passed out and tried to struggle but to no avail.

Fortunately, Natasha recognized the "boxing champion's" skill level and released him after completing the pin.

“I told you, she’s a professional, she can protect your safety.” Tony shrugged, looking at Pepper with a pleading expression.

“No, Tony, I think it’s best to have her with you, at least to prevent those people who are watching you from doing something desperate.”

Pepper shook her head seriously and said solemnly, "Whether I'm jealous or not is a minor matter; Tony's safety is the most important thing."

After weighing the pros and cons, she believed that this was the right decision.

With her boyfriend's carefree nature, she never knew where he might get into trouble again.

“I’m the CEO, what I say goes!” she then added.

Tony was quite touched; Pepper was an irreplaceable presence in his life.

He's been exhausted from managing the company for the past two years, yet he's always thinking of him.

In reality, there are many unseen 'agents' protecting you in the shadows 24 hours a day.

After all, the Shadow Guard's affairs are a secret of the Blackwatch organization, and now that Lu is not around, he must protect it. Telling Pepper would be too much trouble and only add to his worries.

"It was just slippery, I didn't lose."

Happy got up, took off his boxing gloves, rubbed his neck in pain, and stubbornly said...

But he honestly walked quickly off the boxing ring, showing no intention of continuing to spar with Natasha. This was his last act of defiance as a man!

"Yes, yes, you are the strongest, Happy. You need to believe in your inner strength and not be fooled by appearances." Tony walked over with a grin and patted his friend on the shoulder.

Happy immediately gave him a death stare, as if to ask: Why didn't you tell me about such a strong opponent beforehand?

Tony looked completely innocent, pouting and shaking his head, indicating that he had been warned, but unfortunately, you're such a disappointment!

"Alright, Mr. Stark, Miss Pepper, if there's nothing else, I'll head back to the legal department," Natasha said helplessly as she put on her high heels.

She just came to say hello to Tony.

She knew many of the Black Widows lurking within Stark Industries, so there was really nothing left to worry about in terms of security.

The sisters trained in the Red House, even if they weren't as good as her, weren't far behind. They were all taught by the same master, and what she knew, others could also do.

Tony was about to say no problem, and that he planned to meet up for dinner later.

I've been too busy these past two years to have a proper get-together with old friends.

But before she could say it, Pepper interrupted her.

"No, you don't need to go back to the legal department, you can just follow Tony."

"Don't worry about the procedures, I'll call my department head and the personnel transfer management."

“Let’s go together? Lan Fei’er from HR should still be in her office.” Pepper was decisive and smiling as she took Natasha’s hand and walked outside.

“Okay… fine.” Natasha looked at Tony helplessly, but he gave her a look that said, “I’m not the boss,” indicating that he couldn’t help her.

In fact, her arrival was ordered by Nick Fury, and had three main purposes: first, to infiltrate Stark Industries, protect Pepper, and deal with some troublesome business competition;

Second, keep an eye on Tony and make sure nothing happens to him. S.H.I.E.L.D. is already aware of the palladium poisoning, and the research department is working to develop a remedy.

Third, try to get involved and see if you can invite Tony to join the Avengers plan.

All of these premises are based on the premise that Supergirl disappeared for two years.

Otherwise, Lu's powerful superpowers would have made any spy who dared to pry terribly die, and Natasha wouldn't have needed to come here.
