Marvel: Wonka's Chocolate Factory

Obadiah is in talks with military representatives regarding the procurement of Stark Industries' new weapon: the Jericho missile.

He was somewhat surprised to receive Tony's call, because based on past experience, Tony wouldn't concern himself with such trivial matters. So he was puzzled, assuming that this genius had objections to the cooperation with the military.

"Obi, come to my house tonight. It's been a long time since we had dinner together. I got a few bottles of good wine from Willy Wonka, let's try them together tonight."

Tony hung up the phone quickly, and Obadiah, holding the phone, said to everyone present, "Let's continue. Tony just asked me to have dinner with him. To be honest, it's been a long time since I've seen this childlike side of him."

Despite Obadiah's calm and composed demeanor, he is actually quite terrified inside.

He wasn't sure if his plans in Afghanistan had been exposed, especially after what Tony had just said: that he'd gotten a few bottles of good wine from Willy Wonka.

When did Tony and he become so close that Tony directly calls him Willy Wonka? Friendships don't develop overnight. Could the catalyst for their improved relationship be me?!

After having this thought, Obadiah spent the rest of the day in unease. He considered running away, but as soon as he stepped out of Stark Tower, he keenly spotted Happy lurking in the shadows.

This immediately dampened his spirits, because Happy was Tony's personal bodyguard, and having him monitor him meant that Tony was serious.

If he had been prepared, he could have escaped America smoothly. But Obadiah had been clinging to wishful thinking, and now he has no choice but to await trial.

Tony hadn't been wary of him before, but his personal assistant, Pepper, was no pushover. She had used Tony's power to gain a foothold in Stark Industries and control his own destiny.

The situation is even worse now; she will become the sharpest sword in Tony's hand, used against him.

The day passed in this state of anxiety and unease, and Obadiah was prepared to fight to the death.

He arranged for his men to collect all of Stark Industries' confidential data, while simultaneously sending people to surround Tony's house from a distance.

Obadiah understood that the chances of turning the tide by doing this were extremely slim. But he also couldn't bring himself to do nothing and surrender.

Stark Industries is a jewel, and Obadiah has served two generations of Starks, having long since dedicated everything to it.

If Tony wants to kill me, then let's go all out.

If all the core members of Stark Industries were to die tonight, he could imagine the collapse of the entire corporation.

He straightened his suit, loaded all the bullets into the magazine, and gave the pistol a final maintenance.

Obadiah uses his heartbeat data as a signal to connect to the Jericho missile launcher. If his heart stops beating, the Jericho missile aimed at Tony's house will automatically launch.

This was Obadiah's arrangement for the day, a plan to ensure a do-or-die situation with Tony Stark.

Only in this way could he attend the banquet without fear of reprisal.

Meanwhile, Tony had also made preparations, setting out the fine wines that Willy Wonka had gifted him, and preparing another small device for controlled nuclear fusion produced in the laboratory.

He wanted to showcase his achievements to his closest friends and family. Of course, Little Chili already knew, but that didn't stop him from sharing his joy.

After all, his parents and Uncle Obadiah didn't know yet, and this achievement would definitely be a huge surprise for them.

Tony had three things planned for tonight. The first was to explain the partnership between Stark Industries and the Totland Group to Obadiah.

The second thing was to eat the liqueur-filled chocolates, hoping to use the blood connection to bring his parents' souls back from hell to the present world. Uncle Obadiah must also miss his old friends.

The third thing is to showcase our achievements and encourage Stark Industries to focus on the energy sector.

Tony was really putting his heart into tonight's "family dinner." He hadn't hosted a party in a long time, and as a central figure on various social stages, Tony didn't seem to have any need to host one.

"Jarvis, contact Daniel and tell him why my tuna hasn't arrived yet. Tell him that if the ingredients don't arrive by four o'clock, he'll have to bear the consequences himself."

"Jarvis, where's my private jet? Tell the crew to make sure my authentic pizza tastes as good as it's fresh out of the oven. Obadiah loves that pizza place."

"Jarvis~"

……

"OMG!"

As soon as Pepper entered, she saw Tony, who was constantly busy and calling out Jarvis's name every now and then. She shook her head helplessly.

She already knew that Tony had met with the spirits of his parents after eating the liqueur-filled chocolate. But she hadn't expected Tony's transformation to be so dramatic.

Tony has begun to open his heart to a limited extent, and Pepper Potts has felt this most deeply; she can detect even the slightest change.

"Tony, it's rare to see you so energetic about such trivial matters. It's quite surprising."

Pepper came to Tony's side and saw the small nuclear fusion device placed directly in the center of the table.

"Tony, everyone will be proud of you, they definitely will."

"Pepper, thank you."

After Tony greeted Pepper, he immediately said to Jarvis, "Jarvis, why didn't you tell me Pepper was coming?"

"Sir, Ms. Pepper's authority outside the laboratory is the same as yours."

"Sorry, I forgot about that."

"Sir, would you like to modify Ms. Pepper's permissions?"

"Jarvis, no need to modify it, just leave it as is."

"Sir, Mr. Daniel has arrived and is waiting outside. We have arranged for a chef to receive the Pacific Bluefin."

Just as Tony Stark's mansion was busy preparing for the upcoming banquet, Willy Wonka's castle also welcomed new guests.

"Frank, is there anything wrong with your message?"

"Sir, no problem, she did submit a resume. She just used the pseudonym Natalie Rushman."

Willy Wonka was speechless. Had Nick Fury's brain been eaten by the Flerken? How could he still dare to send agents to infiltrate at a time like this?

Could it be that they believe Natasha Romanoff, the female agent nicknamed Black Widow, can really infiltrate the core of the Totto Land Corporation without leaving a trace?

"Frank, bring her in. Let me see where this agent gets the audacity to apply for my housekeeper's assistant position."

Willy Wonka has always had one troubling point about Black Widow: she is Russian. According to Russian tradition, Romanovs should be male.

He was going to ask her in person why she wasn't called Natasha Romanova.
