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

On the other side of the parking lot.

After escorting Tony away from the enthusiastic fans, Happy pointed to a white convertible Audi R8 not far away and said, "The latest model that has just been upgraded."

Was it a free gift with the car?

Upon seeing a blonde woman in a dark purple top and black skirt standing next to the car door, Tony asked with a smile.

"I hope so," Happy replied quickly.

"Hello, Mr. Stark."

The blonde woman came forward and spoke.

"Hello, who are you?"

Tony habitually sized up the blonde woman's face and figure.

"Enforcer," the blonde woman replied.

"I like your Irish accent. What are you doing here?"

"I'm here to see you."

"Really? What do you want?"

Tony opened the car door and got into the driver's seat.

"Issue a summons."

The blonde woman handed Tony a summons.

Tony looked at the summons handed to him, but had no intention of taking it.

"He doesn't like borrowing things from others, so I'll take them for him."

Happy explained as he took the summons.

The blonde woman looked at Tony and said quickly, "Mr. Stark, you are ordered to attend a hearing before the Senate Armed Services Committee at 9:00 AM tomorrow."

Tony suddenly spoke up: "Can I see your badge?"

"You want to see my police badge?"

The blonde woman countered with a question to Tony.

"He especially loves police badges!"

Happy offered another explanation.

The blonde woman smiled slightly, gazed at Tony, took out her badge, and waved it at him: "Do you still like it now?"

In the past, Tony would have definitely made Happy get out of the car and taken the blonde woman back to his place for a relaxing night.

However, he is no longer the playboy who would casually bring women back to his place.

Tony pulled his gaze away from the blonde woman, started the car, and asked Happy, "How far are we from Washington, D.C."

"250 miles."

Happy immediately gave an answer.

Tony didn't say anything more, stepped on the gas, and drove off in the latest Audi R8.

……

The Upper East Side of Manhattan.

The master bedroom of the villa.

Having just finished showering, Gwen was lying on her side on the bed in a sexy black nightgown, gazing expectantly at Roy standing beside her.

"Are you ready?"

Roy's gaze unconsciously swept over Gwen's crossed, bare thighs.

"Ready."

Gwen answered softly without any hesitation.

"Now that we're ready, let's begin."

After saying that, Roy took off his coat, came to Gwen, and stroked her fair and delicate face.

Then, he picked up the black box on the bedside table and took out the spider serum inside.

Just like with the previous performance-enhancing drugs, Tony thoughtfully prepared a matching syringe.

Roy loaded the spider serum into the syringe, aimed the needle at Gwen's right forearm, and injected the spider serum into her without reservation.

With the injection of spider serum, Gwen quickly experienced an indescribable feeling; a strong sense of fatigue instantly spread throughout her body, and her eyelids felt heavier and heavier.

She only lasted five or six seconds before she uncontrollably fell into a deep sleep.

Seeing that Gwen had fallen asleep so quickly, Roy frowned slightly.

He clearly remembered that in the original trilogy, Peter was bitten by the super spider, but he managed to stay awake until he got home before finally falling into a deep sleep.

Peter in the Amazing Movie was a little less lucky; he fell asleep on the subway on his way home.

However, Gwen only lasted a few seconds.

Seeing Gwen fall into a deep sleep, Roy decisively used his Chakra Sensing Technique to sense Gwen's life force.

After confirming that Gwen's life force was increasing at a steady rate and there were no other abnormalities, he stopped using his chakra sensing technique, covered Gwen with a blanket, turned off the light, and left the master bedroom.

The next morning.

The living room of the villa.

Roy and Gwen sat on the sofa, enjoying Tony's performance at the hearing.

Gwen took a day off today to stay at the villa and adjust to her body's renewed surge in physical attributes.

Tony was right. The enhancement serum and the spider serum had a synergistic effect, making Gwen's life force several times stronger than Peter's.

Like Peter, Gwen did not develop the mutation that allowed her to shoot spider silk from her wrists.

As for Spider-Man's other standard abilities.

For example, spider senses, spider physical abilities, adsorption capabilities, self-healing factors, and so on, were all obtained.

Just as Roy remembered, the hearing held by the Military Committee became a stage for Tony to showcase his personal charisma.

The senator presiding over the hearing was rendered speechless by Tony's arguments and called in Justin Hammer of Hammer Industries to refute Tony.

Since Stark Industries ceased weapons research and production, Hammer Industries has replaced Stark Industries as the military's main supplier.

Justin Hammer's status and wealth also rose accordingly.

Immediately afterwards, the senator summoned Colonel Rhodes to the hearing and asked him to read specific passages from the Steel Armor report live on air.

Then, at the senator's request, footage of other countries developing and manufacturing steel armor was shown.

Tony, of course, wouldn't sit idly by. He immediately transformed into a hacker, took control of the screen, and started playing videos of other countries' failed tests of the Iron Man armor.

This includes Justin Hammer, who was also developing and manufacturing steel armor. In a simple turning test, the steel armor twisted 180 degrees, and the driver screamed in agony.

After Justin Hammer unplugged the screen, Tony began his final act, saying to the senator, "Most countries take five to ten years, but Hammer Industries will take at least twenty years to produce steel armor with real combat value."

"I guess all I can say right now is, 'You're welcome.'"

"What do you mean?" the senator asked, puzzled.

"I stopped the threat of nuclear war!"

"The steel armor is very useful. We are safe, and America is safe."

"You want my armor? Don't even think about it!"

"But I did you a huge favor..."

At this point, Tony stood up, turned to face the other people attending the hearing and the live camera, spread his hands, and said with a proud expression, "I alone can maintain world peace!"

The audience erupted in applause!

People stood up and applauded!

As applause erupted, Tony's voice became more impassioned.

"What else do they want from me?"

"I tried to cooperate with these clowns, but they just want to take my armor for themselves!"

Tony publicly called him a clown in front of everyone and on the live broadcast, and the senator presiding over the hearing couldn't help but curse at Tony as well.

Tony ignored the senator's insults, picked up his sunglasses from the table, put them on, and gave the senator a few mocking kisses with a smug look on his face.

He then shook hands with the other attendees and walked towards the door, saying, "I did all this for the people, and I am honored to serve the country."

"If I've proven anything to the world, it's that you can absolutely trust me!"

As Tony left the hearing, the live broadcast also came to an end.

"Don't you also think he shouldn't share the steel armor technology with the military?" Gwen turned to look at Roy and said softly.

"Of course, if the military obtains the technology for steel armor, it's only a matter of time before World War III breaks out," Roy said slowly.
