Simultaneous traversal: All Abyss difficulty.

Chapter 334 Iron Man's Strongest "Weapon" Stephen Fang (Fifth update, please subscribe)
Abandoned factory, on the Eastern European border.

Bucky Barnes huddled among the rusted pipes, his metal arm sparking from a short circuit.

His memory remains confused, but certain fragments are becoming clearer—the icy road, the overturned car, the bloodstained hands…

"No..." He covered his head and growled in pain.

Just then, the factory gate was suddenly pushed open, and blinding sunlight streamed in.

Baji instinctively raised his metal arm to block in front of him.

“Bucky.”

The familiar voice sent a shiver down his spine.

Steve Rogers stood in the doorway, shield in hand, looking at him with a complicated expression.

“Steve!” Bucky’s voice was hoarse. “You shouldn’t have come here.”

“I know you remember.” Steve approached step by step. “The matter of Howard and Maria.”

Bucky's pupils contracted, and the mechanical joints of his metal arm emitted a screeching sound.

“I’m being controlled.” His voice was almost squeezed out through clenched teeth.

“I know,” Steve’s voice was firm, “but Tony won’t listen to explanations.”

Bucky looked up abruptly: "Tony Stark?"

Steve nodded: "He found out the truth, and now he wants to see you."

Bucky's breathing became rapid, his metal fingers digging deep into the pipe, the sheet metal twisting and deforming in his palm.

“Then let him come.” His voice was icy. “Anyway, I should have died long ago.”

Just as Steve was about to speak, a loud bang suddenly came from the factory's dome—

"boom!"

Iron Man's palm cannon tore through the roof, his gold and red suit hovered in mid-air, his eyes beneath the visor locked onto Bucky, and the blue light of the energy cannon gathered in his palm.

"Found you, murderer." Tony's voice came through his suit, cold and full of killing intent.

Steve immediately raised his shield and stood in front of Bucky: "Tony, calm down!"

"Get out of the way, Rogers." Tony's palm cannon was pointed at Steve's chest. "Or I'll blast you too!"

Seeing that Captain America really wouldn't let him go, Tony Stark finally couldn't hold back and opened fire on Bucky!
"Pah~pah!"

The smoke from the explosion obstructed Iron Man's vision, his palm cannons were still glowing blue, and the residual heat of the energy beams distorted in the air. Steve Rogers' shield was pressed tightly against his chest, and a charred mark was blasted into the vibranium surface!

“Tony!” Steve growled, his voice almost drowned out by the hum of his suit. “Bucky’s been taken over! That’s not what he wanted!”

"I don't care!" Tony's voice came through the visor, cold and furious.

He abruptly raised his arm, the shoulder armor snapping open, and a miniature missile locked onto Bucky. "He killed my parents, Rogers! And you—you fucking knew all along!"

Before the words were even finished, the missile roared out!

"boom--!"

The explosion engulfed half the factory, and Bucky was thrown over by the shockwave, his metal arm scraping against the concrete floor, sending up blinding sparks.

Steve rolled to his feet and hurled his shield at Tony's helmet—"Clang!" The gold and red suit was knocked back by the impact, but Jarvis instantly regained his balance, and his palm cannon charged up again.

“Sam!” Steve shouted.

Falcon's wingsuit tore through the smoke as it swooped down, its miniature machine gun firing a barrage of bullets that sparked as they struck Tony's armor. "Annoying little bird," Tony sneered, activating the thrusters on the back of his suit and launching himself into the air. With a spinning kick, he sent Sam crashing into a pile of cargo crates.

Just after dealing with Falcon, a giant hand suddenly appeared in front of Iron Man!
Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be the hand of a giant that had appeared out of thin air in the factory, hanging from the ceiling!
"boom!"

Iron Man was sent flying by the giant's blow, and Captain America, seeing this, praised Ant-Man, "Well done, Scott!"

Having said that, he looked at Hawkeye in the shadows in the distance, "Barton! Now!"

Hawkeye's explosive arrow shot out from the shadows, hitting Tony's leg thrusters precisely.

Flames engulfed the lower half of the gold and red suit, but the next second, Tony burst through the thick smoke, his palm cannon aimed directly at Hawkeye!

Just as the shot was about to hit Hawkeye, another fierce general suddenly appeared!
Black Panther's vibranium claws attacked from the side, and five cold lights tore through Tony's chest armor!
The blue light from the reactor suddenly dimmed, and Tony grunted, throwing a backhand elbow strike at T'Challa's helmet, only to be nimbly dodged by the latter's backflip.

"Where did you come from, Rogers!? Where did you find all these people!?"

Captain America shrugged. "Tony, calm down. I said calm down. Let's talk this over. You can't beat all of us, understand?"

Tony Stark looked around, especially at Hawkeye, his former comrade-in-arms. "You're all on the murderer's side?!" His voice was distorted with rage.

"He was a weapon, not a killer!" Captain America gritted his teeth and charged forward, slamming his shield into Tony's knee joint.

The sound of metal shattering rang out, and Tony knelt on one knee, but the hand of his suit deformed with a "crack," ejecting a high-frequency vibrating blade that pierced straight at Steve's throat!

At the critical moment, Bucky's metal arm suddenly clamped down on Tony's wrist.

“Stark…” Bucky’s voice was hoarse, “I remember their faces.”

Tony's pupils suddenly contracted.

Bucky's mechanical fingers tightened, and the gauntlets of his suit creaked and deformed, but his words were like ice water poured into Tony's burning rage: "Hydra ordered me to kill them... but... I couldn't resist."

"Shut up!" Tony roared, grabbing Bucky's throat with his other hand. His suit activated its full power, slamming Bucky against the wall! The concrete crumbled, and Bucky coughed up blood, but stared intently at Tony: "Kill me... and you still won't become a hero."

Steve's shield flew in again and slammed into Tony's back.

The golden-red battle suit finally lost its balance and crashed to the ground.

Amidst the billowing smoke, Tony's visor cracked open, revealing his bloodshot eyes.

“You won, Captain.” He laughed hoarsely, his palm-sized cannon still aimed at Bucky’s head. “But do you know what’s the most ridiculous thing?”

Steve was panting heavily, his shield pressed against Tony's throat.

The rain began to fall, and the cold water droplets hit the tattered battle suit.

“Calm down, Tony…” Steve’s voice was tired and heavy.

Tony stared at him, then suddenly gave a twisted laugh: "You're wielding the shield my father designed, yet you're threatening me."

Captain America still held his shield high, as if the tip of the shield could easily rip off Stark's head if Tony Stark dared to fire.

Despite his reluctance, Tony Stark had no choice but to remove all of his suits.

He looked at the people standing before him: Black Panther, Ant-Man, Falcon, Hawkeye, Captain America, and the Winter Soldier, the enemy who killed his parents. The great Iron Man squeezed out a sentence through gritted teeth.
"Jarvis! Call Stephen!"

No sooner had he finished speaking than Captain America shouted, "Oh no!"

Before Captain America could make a move, a dark-haired figure appeared next to Tony Stark!

Stephen Fang glanced indifferently at the heroes present, then looked at his employer, cracked his wrist with a crisp snap, and asked, "Did you burn it? Or cripple it?"

Stark's eyes blazed with fury. "I want the Winter Soldier dead!"
