Marvel: Wonka's Chocolate Factory

The chocolate soldiers, dressed in armor, were each two meters tall and wielded weapons with an intimidating presence.

When Willy Wonka created the chocolate soldiers, he used a special kind of icing that provided them with extremely strong defense; ordinary firearms were completely powerless against the protection formed by the icing.

Furthermore, the chocolate soldiers can fire energy cannons from their chests, powerful enough to easily destroy tanks.

Willy Wonka's Observation Haki receded like the tide, and the heavy atmosphere dissipated. A look of satisfaction appeared in Willy Wonka's eyes, and his booming voice reached everyone's ears.

"It's good that everyone is united around me today, acting towards the same goal."

"This mission is a rehearsal for our journey into the universe, a touchstone, and an opportunity for us to truly become close and united."

"We worked together towards a common goal, and after that, we became true brothers and sisters, the Charlotte family brothers and sisters."

This is what Willy Wonka hoped for: to unite everyone through a small but significant action, forming a true whole before setting foot in the universe.

This matter, in particular, perfectly aligned with his ambitions, achieving three goals at once.

They could take control of the United States and transform it into a logistical support base for Totto Land during its early spacefaring phase, thereby maximizing the resolution of logistical issues.

This would satisfy Willy Wonka's ambitions, and at least he wouldn't be subjected to the hostility of some clowns anymore.

The last benefit is that this task is a bit challenging but not too difficult. It can be used to unite the newly formed Charlotte family, allowing everyone to fight side by side in the same trench and deepen the bonds between members.

Willy Wonka didn't say much, then handed the time over to everyone. A grand feast began, and everyone revelled to their hearts' content.

This is the last peaceful night before peace. When the sun rises again, everyone will change out of their formal attire and lead the force known as the Charlotte Family to conquer all directions.

……

No one cared about the wreckage after the revelry; everyone left methodically according to the established plan. Only Randolph, the weak, pitiful, and helpless Flerken, and a few servants remained at the Chocolate Manor.

Many people sensed something was wrong, especially Stark Industries, which had close ties to the Totto Land Corporation. Tony was puzzled by Willy Wonka's decision; he couldn't understand why Totto Land was suddenly withdrawing its forces.

It's important to understand that large grain traders need to maintain a certain level of armed force in some regions to ensure stable profits. Now that these armed forces have withdrawn back to their homeland, previously suppressed competitors in those areas might be tempted to make moves.

The fact that Tony couldn't contact Willy Wonka at all gave him a bad feeling.

Obadiah is with Tony today, and Tony is showing Obadiah around the production lines of his newly developed Mark 5 and Mark 4.

Tony's steel army has increased in size by another order of magnitude, especially after returning from Asgard. The Mark 5, which Tony concentrated resources to build, used a large amount of rare metals and has a certain degree of magic resistance.

Just as Tony was explaining the design concept of the Mark 5 to Obadiah, Pepper Potts contacted him.

"Honey, I'm looking at the new armor with Obi right now. Is there something you need?"

Tony was a little confused because Pepper usually wouldn't bother him while she was working, unless something happened that she couldn't handle and required Tony's decision.

"Tony, Mr. Frank is here to visit. He needs to speak with you urgently."

"Okay, I'll be right there. I can't get in touch with Willy Wonka right now, so I can ask Frank if I need to."

After hanging up the phone, Tony handed the latest Iron Monger No. 5 to Obadiah. He originally wanted to give Obadiah one last surprise, but now he had to bring it out ahead of time.

"Obi, this is my latest design, the Iron Monger V. Like the Mark V, it has magic resistance and can be considered a suit of armor designed to target supernatural beings to a certain extent."

"Furthermore, I added two energy shields to Iron Monger V, increasing its defensive capabilities. If it faces the Hulk again, it won't be helpless like it was last time."

Tony didn't keep Frank waiting long. After Obadiah tried on the armor briefly, they left the production line together.

When Tony arrived, Frank was politely asking Pepper and Tony when their wedding was, which made the strong Pepper blush, a rare occurrence for her.

Clearly, Willy Wonka had absolutely no sense of secrecy, and immediately told everyone around him about Tony and Pepper's affair.

Tony immediately noticed something was off: Frank was wearing a suit of soft armor under his suit today.

In the past, Tony wouldn't have cared. But what era are we living in? Soft armor can't stop large-caliber bullets at all. It has long since evolved from protective gear into a cosplay prop.

But Tony has now evolved and broadened his horizons, and he can immediately tell that this is Asgardian-style soft armor.

wrong!

Alarms blared in Tony's mind. As he sat down on the sofa, the handle of the Mark 5 suitcase was already opened, ensuring he could don his armor immediately.

Obadiah was also a shrewd man. Tony told him about what he had seen and heard in Asgard, which made him feel a sense of crisis.

When Obadiah noticed Tony's actions, he followed without hesitation and quietly opened his Iron Monger 5 briefcase. The equipment he had just acquired might come in handy now.

"Frank, even if Totland is downsizing, does it really need to bring all its manpower back home? Is Totland going all-in on the energy industry and abandoning its long-established food industry?"

Tony voiced the question that had been on his mind, a question that many others also had.

Frank didn't answer Tony's question, but instead said directly, "Tony, Mr. Willy Wonka was previously subjected to hostility and unfair treatment by the Air Force."

"For more than two hundred years, many people have regarded themselves as the masters of the country, and some stewards have even dared to think they are above the masters."

"Mr. Willy Wonka is prepared to set things right. Tony, as Mr. Willy Wonka's ally, will you choose to continue supporting us?"

Tony's brain has completely shut down. What do you mean Willy Wonka is going to correct all this? That's a coup d'état! And an armed coup at that!

The news came so suddenly that Tony was caught off guard, and judging from Frank's appearance, he was definitely prepared. Perhaps Willy Wonka has already started his operation.

Tony opened the briefcase, and the Mark 5 quickly merged into the suitcase. At the same time, Obadiah also donned the Iron Monger suit.

Facing Frank, who was completely covered in Armament Haki, Tony asked a question.

"What level does Willy Wonka want to achieve?"
