Dragon Ball Arrives in Marvel

Chapter 481 Tony, caught in a pincer movement
As the host of the martial arts tournament announced the results, the audience erupted in enthusiastic applause.

Despite losing the match, Casillas acted like a victor, picking up Lorelei and carrying her off the stage, returning to his mage team.

Lorelei did not refuse, but instead whispered in Casillas's ear about his situation and who the people who came with him were.

At that moment, a thought arose in Jessica Jones's mind: Could this year's champion be Lorelei of Asgard?

As she pondered, Jessica Jones looked toward Wanda's location. There were three women in this Dragon Ball tournament, and since she had already been eliminated, Wanda was her only hope.

It remains to be seen whether Wanda can eliminate Lorena, since it would be a real loss for Earth if an alien were to obtain the Dragon Balls.

It's unclear whether Lorelei possesses any other abilities besides this purple-man-like power, and whether Wanda is a match for her.

Of course, the most important thing is that Wanda had the luck to face Lorelei and successfully defeat her twice. Otherwise, if she had been less lucky, it's not impossible that she would have been eliminated early.

While Jessica Jones was still pondering, the martial arts tournament host announced:

"The first round of the Dragon Ball battles has concluded, and the winners are Wanda, Tony Stark, and Lorelei."

"Wanda and Lorelei each received two Dragon Balls, while Tony Stark received three Dragon Balls."

"The second round of the competition will still be a two-on-two battle, since each of the three players has two Dragon Balls. The third round of the competition will also consist of three matches, and the results will be randomly assigned on the big screen."

Wanda's image was now fixed, while the images of the opponents she was facing began to scroll, allowing her to choose between Tony Stark and Lorelei.

The results were quickly displayed on the big screen: Wanda's opponent was Tony Stark.

Then Tony Stark's image settled, while the images of his rivals Wanda and Lorelei scrolled rapidly, eventually pausing on Lorelei's image.

Match 2: Tony Stark vs. Lorelei

Then came Lorelei's third in-ring match, where she would choose between Tony Stark and Wanda.

The final result: Lorelei vs. Wanda.

As the match schedule was announced, the host loudly proclaimed:
"The lineup for the three matches in the second round has been finalized. Players, please get ready. The second round of arena battles will begin in thirty minutes."

As Lorelei returned to the audience area, the martial arts tournament host appeared. During this time, everyone's attention had already shifted away from Lorelei, and their eyes were now focused on the host and the list of opponents for the second round of matches.

At this moment, Pietro looked at his sister and said:
"Wanda, you're really lucky. Your first match is against Tony Stark, and your second match is against Lorelei."

Wanda's lips curled slightly, and she began to speak:
"I will teach him a lesson he won't forget."

"As for Lorelei, her abilities have no effect on me."

Wanda had already realized Lorelei's abilities, and when Pietro stopped paying attention to Lorelei, she was no longer affected and became more rational.

Pietro said:
"You still need to be careful of Lorelei. After all, she comes from Asgard and this is her first appearance. We have no information about her, and no one knows if she has any abilities that we don't know about."

"Perhaps the other side will suddenly pull out a weapon, just like Thor did?"

Wanda nodded, and then said:
“I’ll be careful.” Pietro looked at his sister, thought for a moment, and said:

"I just checked the information. Howard Stark, who forged the shield for the captain, was Tony Stark's father. He died in a car accident many years ago."

"Steve probably won't have a chance to introduce him to you."

Wanda was taken aback by Pietro's words, but thinking about the era when Steve Rogers was active, the person who built his shield was probably close to death even if he hadn't been in the car accident, given his age.

"It seems the idea of ​​building you weapons is going to fail. We'll try again later."

Pietro said nonchalantly:

"I'm not in a hurry about weapons."

"The leader said he would prepare a weapon for me made of secondary adamantium and let me try to see if I could use it."

Wanda nodded in agreement. After the match, she would also undergo intensive training under Smith Doyle's arrangement. She had already asked for the mentorship opportunity she received at Christmas, but it would not be implemented until after the ring battle.

At this moment, Tony, having rationally reviewed the situation, also saw his opponents for the next two matches: Wanda and Lorelei.

Both of these female contestants were quite sinister. Originally, the lineup consisted of three men and three women, but in the first round, the two male contestants were eliminated, leaving only him.

Just as Tony Stark was pondering how to deal with the two's abilities, Harry spoke up:
"Tony, you're not going to give up like that sorcerer did, are you?"

Tony shook his head vigorously, then said:
“Something was off about that fight. Casillas shouldn’t have acted like that, even though I don’t know him well.”

"Unless his wish is to win the favor of a beautiful woman."

Pepper Potts, who was standing nearby, spoke up:
"Isn't she like a succubus from a story, someone who makes men unable to resist her once she appears?"

Tony nodded:

"Perhaps their abilities are somewhat similar, which is really a headache."

"The main thing is that the two matches were back-to-back. Wanda's side is not simple either. Steve Rogers was stunned on the spot, not knowing what trick he had fallen for."

Tony thought for a moment, then stepped into the suit and said:
"Jarvis, replay the fight between Steve Rogers and Wanda."

The Mark suit, which had been standing upright to the side, was not idle; Jarvis had been recording the details of each ring battle.

By reviewing the video replay, Tony Stark discovered that as long as Wanda didn't get close, he wouldn't be affected. After all, in the video, the problem only arose after Steve Rogers approached Wanda; the earlier magical attacks were blocked by Steve Rogers' shield and had no effect.

Tony Stark decided that once the match started, he wouldn't give Wanda any chance to get close and would bombard her with bullets to knock her out of the ring.

Tony Stark has never been afraid of anyone, even when it comes to medium- and long-range saturation bombardment.
