American comics: Starting as the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast

Chapter 1 Ninja System

"Which department do you work for?"

"The military, the CIA, or the Department of Homeland Security?"

Tony Stark, with a stubble beard, wearing a worn-out T-shirt with a "light" on his chest and emanating a sour stench, stared at the black-haired young man in front of him with a look of astonishment.

"No, my name is Roy, and I'm a private investigator."

"Someone paid me to come to Afghanistan to rescue you; they're very willing to spend the money."

Roy sized Tony up and replied calmly.

Private investigator?

Upon hearing his answer, not only Tony showed a surprised expression, but Ethan, standing beside him, also looked puzzled.

Although he didn't know if Roy was telling the truth, Tony didn't waste time thinking about it and quickly asked, "Who asked you to come and save me, Obadiah?"

He doesn't have many friends; you can count them on one hand.

Among his few friends, only one had the ability to spend a lot of money to hire someone to save him.

Obadiah Stanislav!

Roy shook his head and replied, "No, the person who invited me was your secretary, Miss Potts."

At this point, he took a piece of paper out of his pocket, placed it on the worktable in front of him, and continued, "She specially came to New York to commission me, promising that as long as I rescue you, she will do her best to persuade you to pay the commission."

"The details are written on the note; you should be able to recognize her signature and handwriting."

Tony has a quirk.

That is, he doesn't accept things from strangers.

Tony frowned slightly and picked up the note from the worktable.

The note contained only a few sentences, which I read quickly.

Commission fee: US$3000 million!

This wasn't the main reason Roy came to rescue Tony.

He will come to the mountains of Afghanistan to rescue Tony, who has been kidnapped by the Ten Rings Gang, mainly to obtain the reward given by the system.

To become the Jinchūriki of the One-Tailed Beast!

Speaking of this, we have to mention Roy's background.

He is not a native of this world, but a transmigrator who came here half a year ago.

Like other time travelers, he woke up to find himself in another world, and also awakened the special abilities that time travelers are born with.

Ninja System!

As long as you complete the requests from others that have passed the system's approval, you can receive various rewards from the Naruto world.

The system's rewards include, but are not limited to, ninjutsu, bloodline limits, tailed beasts, ninja tools, and so on.

In other words, as long as he completes enough requests, he can possess any kind of bloodline limit, whether it's the Sharingan, Rinnegan, Wood Release, or all the tailed beasts and ninjutsu.

If you don't like the rewards offered by the system, that's fine too. Just refuse the commission without any consequences.

Let's get back to this commission.

The moment Chili Pepper's request was approved by the system and the reward was displayed, Roy decided that this request was absolutely necessary.

Although the tailed beast he was rewarded with this time was not his favorite Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, but the One-Tails Jinchuriki, he was still very satisfied with the reward.

Rescuing Tony from the Afghan branch of the Ten Rings Gang is not particularly difficult.

It's not high for him, at least.

Compared to the difficulty of the commission, the reward of becoming the One-Tailed Jinchuriki is exceptionally generous.

Tony put the note away and asked, "How are you going to get us out of here?"

"It's simple, just go outside."

Roy replied calmly.

Before he came in, he had already killed all the terrorists outside.

At this time, apart from the three of them, there was no one else alive in the cave and valley.

Tony wanted to ask something more, but Roy turned and walked out of the cave.

Watching him leave, Tony pondered for a moment, then turned to Ethan and said, "Burn all the blueprints and destroy the computer."

"good!"

Ethan replied immediately without any hesitation.

After saying that, he picked up the hammer next to him and started hitting the laptop on the worktable with great force.

80, 80, 80...

Tony wasn't idle either; he quickly gathered all the design blueprints for the Mark 1 and threw them all into the furnace.

Soon, these design drawings were burned to ashes.

After throwing the laptop fragments into the stove, Tony and Ethan caught up with Roy.

In the dimly lit passageway, the bodies of terrorists were scattered everywhere.

They died in different ways.

Some had their hearts pierced, some had their throats slit, and others were squeezed and twisted into inhuman shapes.

If Tony and Ethan had died from being stabbed in the heart and having their throats slit, it would be somewhat understandable.

After all, these two methods of dying are common and not unusual.

However, it is not very common for someone to die from being squeezed and twisted into a non-human form.

"How did he die?"

Tony pointed to one of the bodies, which was crushed and twisted in death, and asked, puzzled.

"Crushed to death."

Roy replied.

Killed by strangulation?

Tony looked at Roy with a puzzled expression.

Without any hesitation, he continued, "How did you kill him?"

Roy stopped and turned to look at Tony, whose face was full of curiosity, and slowly raised his right hand.

Sand bound coffin!

Under his control, the sand on the ground seemed to come alive, rushing towards a corpse with its throat slit and completely enveloping it.

A sand waterfall funeral procession!

Roy silently recited the mantra in his mind, then suddenly clenched his right fist.

Shouting out the name of a ninjutsu doesn't increase its power, so he prefers to silently recite it in his mind rather than shouting it out.

The sand encasing the corpse suddenly compressed, and the terrifyingly high pressure instantly crushed the body, causing blood to splatter out from the gaps in the sand.

"He was just strangled to death like that."

Roy stopped using his ninjutsu, and the sand covering the corpse fell away under the force of gravity, revealing the body that had been squeezed and twisted beyond recognition.

How is that possible?

Seeing him manipulate the sand to crush the corpse, Tony and Ethan both involuntarily gasped.

The scene before them was completely beyond their comprehension.

"Are you a superhuman?"

Tony asked quickly.

Although he had never seen a superhuman before, having grown up in America, he had read a lot of superhero comics and was no stranger to superhumans.

Not only that, but some time before he was kidnapped, he heard that a vigilante called "Spider-Man" had appeared in New York.

I guess so.

Roy nodded and continued walking towards the exit.

Seeing that he didn't intend to explain much, Tony suppressed his curiosity.

Before long, they arrived at the cave entrance.

The intense sunlight made Tony unconsciously squint.

This was the second time he had seen sunlight since being kidnapped.

Once his eyes adjusted to the light, he immediately surveyed the valley.

Just like when he was first brought out of the cave, the valley was filled with a large number of weapons and equipment produced by Stark Industries.

The difference is that the last time he came out, the valley was full of terrorists.

Now, these terrorists are all corpses.

Just as he was about to ask Roy what mode of transportation he planned to use to leave the valley, Roy once again mobilized the chakra within his body.

The surrounding sand floated up and coalesced into an irregular "sand cloud" large enough to accommodate three people sitting down.

Sand cloud is not a ninjutsu; it is simply the manipulation of sand.

After the sand cloud took shape, Roy was the first to step forward.

Tony and Ethan had assumed the sand cloud would be soft and fluffy, feeling similar to walking on sand.

As it turned out, they were wrong.

The sand clouds, which look soft and fluffy, are actually as solid as the ground and can easily support their weight.

After Tony and Ethan stepped onto the sand cloud, Roy manipulated the sand cloud to float up.

"Could you destroy all the weapons in the valley?"

Tony suddenly spoke up.

"Can."

"But it costs extra!"

Roy replied.
