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

Chapter 74 Art is an Explosion

Noon the next day.

Los Angeles.

Tony's seaside mansion.

Roy sat on the sofa in the living room, picked up a glass, and took a sip of Tony's treasured whiskey.

"Where did you go for the past few days?"

"I called you more than ten times, but you didn't answer any of them."

"I called Gwen, and she said you were away on a business trip and she didn't know when you would be coming."

Tony, sitting opposite him, also picked up his glass, took a sip, and quickly asked.

"I went to a very far place."

Roy put down his glass and replied with a smile.

"A very far place?"

"How far away is it, to the other side of the Earth?"

Tony frowned.

"I won't say exactly where it is, but I'm here for two main reasons."

"First, I don't have any other commissions at the moment. If you still want to commission me to find Ivan Vanko, you can do so now."

"Secondly, I've obtained a batch of very special materials, and I hope you can help me forge some weapons."

Roy looked at Tony and said slowly.

Although Tony failed the system's assessment the last time he commissioned him, he wouldn't mind accepting the commission to find Ivan Vanko without any system reward, as long as Tony could provide him with satisfactory compensation.

Tony sized him up and asked, "What kind of weapon do you want me to forge for you?"

Without any hesitation, Roy took out a Flying Thunder God kunai from his system space. It was shaped like the Fourth Hokage's, but without any writing on the handle, and placed it in front of Tony.

"Use the materials I gave you to forge 10 daggers exactly like this one."

To make it easier for Tony to understand, he deliberately referred to the Flying Thunder God Kunai as a dagger.

Tony picked up the Flying Thunder God Kunai and examined it closely.

Although the shape of the Flying Thunder God Kunai is somewhat unusual, it was not difficult for him to create it.

However, he still frowned and quickly said, "I'm not a blacksmith. If you want to forge this kind of uniquely shaped dagger, you should go to a blacksmith, not me."

"Your craftsmanship is better, and the items you create are more valuable for collection."

Roy replied.

Tony glared at him.

After thinking for a dozen seconds, he said, "If you accept the commission to find Ivan Vanko, I will forge 10 of these kunai for you."

"The fee will remain the same, $3000 million."

"make a deal!"

Roy nodded.

Tony handed the Flying Thunder God kunai back to him and continued, "What materials do you plan to use to forge it?"

Roy was preparing to retrieve the Uru metal he had obtained from Asgard from the system space.

Just then, through the huge floor-to-ceiling window behind Tony, he noticed a dozen or twenty small black dots flying at high speed in the distant sky.

What is this?

Upon seeing these small black dots, he first showed a puzzled expression.

Immediately afterwards, he rolled his eyes at Tony.

With the activation of his Byakugan, the small black dot in the distant sky appeared clearly in his field of vision.

After clearly identifying the tiny black dot flying at high speed, he closed his eyes and said to Tony, "You can write the check now."

Seeing that he opened his eyes and looked behind him, Tony realized something and turned to look at the distant sky.

Although he didn't roll his eyes, he did see the small black dot flying rapidly toward the villa.

Upon hearing Roy's words, he immediately realized what was going on.

"Ivan Vanko?"

"Yes!"

Tony stood up quickly.

Just as he was about to instruct Jarvis to start the Mark 7, Roy's voice rang out.

"There's no need to wear armor; just stand there and watch the show."

"Are you sure I don't want to renovate the villa?"

"Get ready to watch the fireworks!"

Roy didn't say anything, but decisively activated his Mangekyou Sharingan.

When he activated his Byakugan just now, he not only saw Ivan Vanko wearing the second-generation Whiplash Armor, but also a familiar face.

"Crossbones" Brock Rumlow!

The moment he saw Rumlow, he knew that Hydra had abducted Ivan Vanko from prison.

Ivan Vanko and Rumlow were flying very fast.

As the distance decreased, they transformed from tiny black dots the size of ants into clearly defined outlines.

Roy wasted no more time and focused his gaze on the Hydra soldier on the far right.

Amaterasu!

He silently recited the command, and black flames with a temperature of 6000 degrees Celsius appeared out of thin air, instantly engulfing the Hydra soldier on the far right.

Bang!

The next second after being engulfed by Amaterasu's flames, the Hydra soldier exploded like fireworks.

Amaterasu's flames do not have an explosive effect.

However, the arc reactor will explode if it goes out of control.

The orange-red flames from the explosion appeared in the sky above the sea like a mini sun.

The loud explosion immediately caught the attention of Ivan Vanko and Rumlow.

Before they could react, another Hydra soldier in an Iron Man suit exploded like fireworks.

Boom boom boom boom boom boom boom boom —

Roy's gaze moved continuously from right to left as Amaterasu's black flames ignited one Hydra soldier after another.

When his gaze fell upon Ivan Vanko and Rumlow, he deliberately skipped over them, refraining from letting the Amaterasu flames engulf them.

In less than five seconds, all the Hydra soldiers wearing Iron Man suits, except for Ivan Vanko and Rumlow, turned into fireworks.

Art is a blast!

Looking at the fireworks show he had created, Roy couldn't help but recall Deidara's classic lines.

Although they didn't know exactly what was going on, Ivan Vanko and Rumlow quickly made a decision.

escape!

Their purpose in coming to Los Angeles this time was simple: to kill Tony and ensure that no one else would have the Iron Man suit and the Arc Reactor.

In their view, this was a sure thing.

Although Tony also possesses the Iron Man suit, Tony is only one person.

This time, a total of twenty people came.

Twenty against one!

The advantages are enormous.

But they never imagined that Roy was also in Tony's villa.

Speaking of this, we have to explain why Pierce ordered them to attack Tony today.

Tony had no idea where Roy had gone recently.

Pierce, however, knew it all perfectly well.

Similarly, he also knew that Roy and Tony had a good relationship.

Last night, he received a report from a Hydra agent hidden in the New York branch, informing him that Roy, who had gone to Asgard, had returned to Earth.

After a night of careful consideration, he decided to kill Tony today.

He had considered killing Tony before Roy returned to Earth.

But to ensure that the attack on Tony goes smoothly, he needs to wait until Ivan Vanko has produced enough Iron Man suits, or more precisely, enough Arc Reactors.

As it turned out, Roy returned.

If he had known Roy would be returning to Earth yesterday, he would have preferred to act ahead of time, even if it meant the operation might fail.

Unfortunately, there's no going back.

After turning the other Hydra soldiers into fireworks, Roy deactivated his Mangekyou Sharingan and instead used Magnet Release.

As Magnet Release was activated, the magnetic force generated from chakra immediately enveloped Ivan Vanko and Rumlow.

Even without the warnings from their suits, they could tell they were enveloped by a high-intensity magnetic force.

No matter how much they struggled and activated the jets of their suits, they were unable to continue controlling the Iron Man suits to escape and were forcibly bound to the air above the sea, unable to move.
