The bullet, coated with Armament Haki, was too hard to fit the rifling, and upon exiting the barrel, it wore down most of the rifling.

It seems... a flintlock rifle is more suitable for me.

Cao Gui stroked his chin thoughtfully. He had a large number of flintlock pistols in his spatial storage, which, when used in conjunction with Armament Haki, would definitely have an extraordinary effect.

Waaaaaah~

Just then, the sound of police sirens rang out.

"Let's go, Gwen, we can't stay here any longer." Cao Gui called out, pulled Gwen away from the restaurant, and before leaving, handcuffed the remaining three people and left the bill.

The rest is up to the NYPD to clean up the mess.

……

Inside the conference room of the U.S. Department of Defense building.

Many middle-aged and elderly men in military uniforms sat in the conference hall, while several white men in suits sat in the central row of chairpersons' seats.

This is a hearing, a hearing concerning Toni Stark.

Knock knock knock!

“Ms. Stark, may we continue our previous topic?” A senator with dark skin and a short neck banged on the table and shouted loudly.

"Of course, sir."

Toni Stark gently brushed a strand of blonde hair from her temple, rested her chin on her hand, smiled slightly, and spoke softly to the councilors on the podium above.

Point Guard Here

The earrings on her earlobes jingled melodiously as she swayed, and Toni's hands were close together, her arms pressing against her chest, creating a deep cleavage.

Looking down from his vantage point, the congressman saw a patch of smooth, snow-white skin.

Congressman: "..."

Damn it, my fist's hard!

If he hadn't known that this guy had been a man for over thirty years, he might have really been unable to resist developing feelings for this woman.

"Ahem, let's continue our previous topic. Do you possess a specially made, powerful weapon?"

“No,” Tony laughed, her full red lips slightly pursed, and continued, “My steel suit isn’t a weapon; it’s just a high-tech prosthetic for you.”

“You know, I turned into a woman overnight, but actually, I lost my mobility during that time, so I had a prosthetic leg made to help me move around.”

"But as far as I know, you already had your Iron Man armor before you became a woman." The senator couldn't be so easily fooled.

"No, you're wrong. Actually, I started becoming a woman a long time ago, I just didn't show it." Tony argued confidently, blatantly lying through her teeth.

"That day marked the moment when my appearance completely changed to that of a woman. In fact, it was the moment when I truly became a woman. As for why this happened, don't ask me, I don't know either."

"Ms. Stark..."

The senator was speechless. Stark kept linking the Iron Man suit to her gender reassignment surgery, and no matter what he said, it would inevitably come down to, "I don't know why I became a woman."

“Wow, Stark is really interesting,” Beth exclaimed. “However, the Department of Defense won’t give up so easily; she’ll definitely hand over her Iron Man suit.”

Cao Gui shrugged. Beth was right. In the original story, the War Machine did fall into the hands of the United States. However, the technology of the Arc Reactor was firmly in Tony's hands, so the War Machine could never be mass-produced.

But speaking of which, wasn't that senator on TV a Hydra? He hasn't seen Sitwell in a long time.

Cao Gui stroked his chin, thinking of the Iron Man suit again. He had never been interested in Iron Man suits before. His physical skills, domineering aura, and character cards could handle most situations, so there was no need to get an Iron Man suit that would easily expose his identity.

But things are different now. Having grasped another rule of the system, perhaps... the Iron Man armor can be exchanged for merit points?

If possible, Cao Gui would go and ransack Tony's bedroom right now... cough cough, just take the Iron Man suit, nothing else.

Somewhere on Highway 95, a heavily tattooed Slavic man crouches in the bushes, toothpick in his mouth, staring menacingly into the distance, seemingly waiting for something.

He was wearing a set of plate armor, and on his chest was an arc reactor that emitted a blue-white light. In his hands, he held two soft whips with plasma current.

Chapter 252 Friendship Has Turned sour

The intersection of Washington, D.C. and Highway 95.

Several police cars were parked on the side of the road, and the police officers on duty were leisurely strolling around. Compared to the police in the city, their safety level is actually higher.

There are no banks, no shops, and naturally no armed robbers here. The only people here are drivers rushing about, and the ones you interact with most are truck drivers.

Although some truck drivers are quite irritable, it's not a big problem. There are many of them, so dealing with one or two truck drivers shouldn't be a problem.

So, while it may seem that street patrol is hard work and not as comfortable as being in the city center, in reality, everyone in the police station likes to patrol the street.

"Another boring day, guys." A middle-aged white police officer squatted behind the patrol car, a cigarette dangling from his mouth.

"That's good, it's better to be bored." Another officer said with a sneer, "Do you want to fight a lizard monster? Or do you want to arrest DB Cooper?"

"Heh heh, never mind." The smoking police officer chuckled. "I have a wife and kids. I don't want to die and have some other man spend my pension money."

“You’re right, it’s really comfortable here.” Another officer chuckled and said, “Let the young guys handle the fighting with the thugs and criminals. We’re too old to fight.”

“Oh, Jack, I remember you used to be the police station’s shooting record holder, how come you would say something like that.”

"Bullshit, didn't you break my record?"

"Haha, that record only lasted four or five days..."

"..."

The police officers on the roadside chatted, and when they had a craving for a cigarette, they would go to the back of their cars to smoke, thoroughly enjoying their leisure time.

"Buzz—, Team Two, Toni Stark will be at your position soon." A voice came through the walkie-talkie.

"Received. We are prepared to deal with any unforeseen crisis." An officer leaned against the hood of the car, his shoulders slumped, but his tone was powerful.

If you didn't see them slacking off, you would definitely think they were working hard. Their spirit of slacking off is admirable.

Good romance novels

As they were talking, a black SUV and a Rolls-Royce drove up from a distance.

"Guys, once they're over, we can go home."

"Great, another safe day. I love this job."

"Hehehe, me too."

"..."

In the back seat of the Rolls-Royce, Toni Stark leaned against the window, lost in thought, with a sexy woman with burgundy hair sitting beside her.

“Tony, uh… I’m very sorry, I’m at a hearing…” In the passenger seat, Colonel Rhodes swallowed hard and hesitated before speaking, his gaze inadvertently sweeping across the rearview mirror.

He and Tony used to be good brothers. Tony would always invite him to go out drinking and partying on yachts. After Tony went missing, he personally led a helicopter to find the missing Tony deep in the Hindu Kush Mountains.

Although he wasn't the one who rescued Tony, they were good buddies who had fought side by side and frequented brothels together.

However, Tony became Tonyi, his best friend became a super beautiful young lady, and his friendship... to be honest, it changed.

"Rhodes, that's enough. Don't look at me like that." Toni Stark was exasperated. I treat you like a brother, and you're thinking of sleeping with me? This is outrageous!

“Miss Stark, given the way the Department of Defense operates, they won’t give up on steel…prosthetics,” Natasha said, changing the subject.

Looking at the woman beside her who was even more beautiful than herself, Natasha was speechless. Nick Fury had long ago told her to prepare to infiltrate Tony's side.

For this reason, she even got the job of a model in Tokyo... cough cough, not Tokyo is hot, but a model in Tokyo.

But who would have thought that in the blink of an eye, Tony Stark would turn into a woman, rendering his honey trap useless, as Tony Stark was far more beautiful than her.

“They can forget about it.” Toni sneered. “What’s mine will always be mine, and they can’t interfere.”

“Stark Industries’ legal team has plenty of ways to deal with them. Natalie, when you get back, tell our legal department to prepare a long-term plan to deal with the Department of Defense, and double everyone’s salary.”

“Yes, Miss Stark,” Natasha replied.

“The Iron Man suit will always be mine, and the Arc Reactor will always be mine,” Tony Stark scoffed.

“Uh…Toni,” Colonel Rhodes suddenly said, pointing to a shirtless bear-like man by the roadside, “the arc reactor you’re talking about, is it that kind?”

Upon hearing this, the two women in the back seat looked up and their expressions changed drastically.

With a toothpick dangling from his mouth and a wicked smile on his face, Yin Wan lightly flicked two soft whips crackling with electric arcs, a rudimentary version of an arc reactor hanging from his chest.

“Sukabri, Toni Stark!”

"Shit..."

Peng!

Yin Wan grinned maliciously and swung his plasma whip down, the sharp plasma cleaving the Rolls-Royce in two.

"Oh God!"

Happy, driving his Rolls-Royce, screamed as the remaining half of the car lurched forward and crashed into the roadside with a thud. He was completely dazed and couldn't even stand up.

"Shit!" The Washington police officers who had been leisurely strolling along the roadside suddenly changed their expressions and immediately pressed their walkie-talkies to report to their superiors.

"Quick, shoot him!"

"You two, check on the people in the car!"

"..."

Bang bang bang!

Washington State Troopers pulled the trigger at Yin Wan in the distance, but Yin Wan flicked his whip, and a strong arc of electricity flashed, deflecting their bullets.

"Damn it, sir, our guns aren't working!" the officer exclaimed.

At the same time, the roar of helicopters sounded overhead; the media had arrived.

Yin Wan did not show any fear or try to avoid it. Instead, he grinned, waved at the media cameras, and looked smug.

He looked just like a star under the spotlight.

On the other side, Toni let out a soft moan and wobbled as she struggled to get out of the half of the car.

"Tony Stark, hehehe, you're finished!"

Yin Wan grinned maliciously, whipping his plasma whip repeatedly, producing a constant crackling sound and sparks flying everywhere.

Meanwhile, Black Widow had emerged from the vehicle on the other side of the road, but... her mission was limited to stealth, not combat.
