I evolve infinitely in the Marvel world...

At Stark Estate.

“Jarvis, when will Thaddeus E. Ross arrive?”

Tony stood up and walked to the full-length mirror, looking at the scenery outside and asking.

"The air force will arrive in ten minutes, while Ross will arrive in half an hour."

"Based on their conversation, you will meet with them in half an hour."

Jarvis immediately reported the situation upon hearing this.

"What a foolish man who thinks power is everything."

Tony's eyes showed a hint of sadness when he heard that Ross would arrive with the air force in half an hour.

If General Ross did not come to him, he intended to force him into submission by force.

Tony wouldn't have gone so far as to kill Rose outright.

In the past, they had contacted and cooperated with each other many times.

However, as an Air Force lieutenant general, Ross held considerable power and controlled the direction of many things in the United States.

In the past, Stark Industries was often forced to give up some profits to allow the military to reap greater benefits.

The idea that the common people cannot fight against officials, the merchants cannot fight against officials, and even the heroes of the Avengers cannot fight against officials has taken root in people's hearts.

Tony didn't know how Ross viewed him—whether he was a wealthy businessman, a genius inventor, or a hero.

Regardless of how you view him, it's normal for Rose to want to use the same old tricks, since soft tactics don't work, so he'll resort to hard tactics.

After all, Rose was used to being domineering and firmly believed that he would definitely give in, thinking that he couldn't cause any trouble and would never dare to resist.

When Nick Fury, the former director of S.H.I.E.L.D., first visited him, he was basically thinking the same thing.

Their attitude wasn't to come and discuss, but to directly issue instructions.

But things are different now.

He is no longer the Tony Stark Iron Man who, aside from his brilliant mind and Iron Man armor, is still incredibly fragile and unable to escape the constraints of human society.

Instead, he participated in several large-scale cosmic wars, and through the baptism of blood and the sublimation of his knowledge, he has transformed into Tony Stark, the pioneer of the void.

Therefore, trying to suppress him with ordinary power as in the past is simply wishful thinking.

The broader Tony's knowledge and the greater his strength, the more he understood why Harvey said that the beauty of the universe was determined by power, and not by anything else.

Because only the truly strong have the right to choose, while the weak only have the right to choose passively.

For Tony now, the American military and politicians who, driven by greed and arrogance, attempt to stop him are undoubtedly the weaker party.

The strong can have compassion and make contributions to the weak, but this choice comes from the strong's own heart, not from a passive choice made under the pressure of others.

One's actions all stem from one's own conscience; this is the right to choose that comes with power.

To him, Ross was weak, but to most people, Ross was strong, possessing the power to decide the life or death of others with a single word.

Tony doesn't dare to claim that he is righteous, nor will he claim that he is righteous.

Because the universe is a world of natural selection, where only the fittest survive.

“Pepper, things might get bloody here soon.”

"You can go back to your room for a while, I'll take care of it."

Tony looked out the window and spoke.

"My mental resilience is not as poor or as merciful as you imagine."

“I have already seen even bloodier battlefields.”

"What is about to come is nothing to me."

"I am also disgusted by the faces and words of Ross and those politicians."

"And as your wife, I want to witness your dreams together with you."

Upon hearing this, Pepper slowly walked to Tony's side and said with a smile.

Tony's ideal is a good thing for all mankind, because human society is still making progress in technology.

However, the most crucial technology has already begun to hit a bottleneck.

With the population growing ever larger, Earth's land and energy resources are becoming increasingly scarce.

With the gap between the rich and the poor widening, the few people at the top of the pyramid don't think about how to break through the bottlenecks and expand the resources of the planet.

Instead, they were always thinking about how to create more powerful weapons to build a more powerful military and plunder the weak.

Therefore, Tony's process of realizing his ideals will inevitably be accompanied by bloodshed and turmoil.

She will also be by Tony's side, sharing both the success and the sins that come with it all.

"it is good."

Tony didn't want Pepper to see his brutal side, but rather wanted her to always see his wise side.

But since Pepper had already said that, he naturally had no reason to refuse.

When will Mr. Kassadin be back?

Pepper saw that Tony wasn't forcefully telling her to leave, and her smile widened as she asked a question.

"do not know."

"However, Kassadin has reached a point where he can do whatever he wants."

"Returning to Earth would only take a few breaths; I could come back at any moment."

"No matter when we come back, we have no more worries."

Tony, knowing Pepper's thoughts, shook his head slightly and said slowly.

Having already secured the support of Odin, the ruler of the Nine Realms, Tony was already confident enough to face Captain Marvel's arrival.

Having recently obtained the support and permission of Kassadin, the god of the void, after inquiring about him, he became even more fearless.

"My main hope is to have a meal with Mr. Kassadin again after so long."

"It has been a long time since we last dined with Mr. Kassadin."

Pepper spoke up upon hearing this.

Kassadin, the Void God and founder of the Void Cult, a top-tier powerhouse in the universe, once sat at the same table with them and chatted about everyday matters.

I even asked Mr. Kassadin what type of woman he liked.

Now, when Pepper thinks back on these once ordinary memories between friends, it all feels somewhat like a dream.

There will definitely be other opportunities.

When Tony heard Pepper say she wanted to dine with Harvey, his eyes lit up and he spoke up.

The gap in strength between him and Harvey is now too vast, so even if Harvey wants to maintain the friendship, he cannot remain complacent.

However, he will surely overcome the restraint brought about by his inherent sense of hierarchy and once again talk with Harvey as a friend about their respective ideas and the state of the universe.

"Ah."

Pepper was unaware of what had happened between Tony and Harvey; she simply looked forward to that day.

Then, the sound of the helicopter's rotors spinning rapidly reached Tony and Pepper's ears from the distant sky.

When the two heard these sounds, they smiled at each other.

Tony sat down on the sofa in the lobby, waiting for the enemy to arrive.

“Pepper Potts, Executive Chairman of Stark Industries”

"You are suspected of disrupting the international order and of treason, which undermines the foundations of the United States."

“Therefore I, General Thaddeus E. Ross, hereby arrest you.”

"If you want to be rescued, let Tony Stark come and talk to me."

The helicopters then surrounded Stark Estate, and General Ross's voice blared from the loudspeakers, echoing across the sky above the estate.

"I have never mentioned anything that implied treason."

"There was no mention of any intention to use this to disrupt the international situation."

"I have done my best to treat you, and I hope to be able to negotiate with you."

"However, you don't seem to have understood my intention."

"If you find that gentle methods aren't working and decide to use force, be careful not to get yourself into trouble."

Pepper's face turned cold when she heard this accusation, which was made by name.

According to Tony, the plan was to carry out a decapitation strike directly, but she persuaded him against it.

Only by letting the enemy come to us can we determine whether they truly intend to stop us.

However, her repeated retreats only provoked the enemy to become increasingly arrogant and overbearing.

“You didn’t say that, but what you did already falls within the scope of the above-mentioned crimes.”

"Now that you're threatening us, we're adding another charge of obstructing the mission to your list of crimes."

"So we need you to come back with us."

"Until Tony Stark intervenes,"

Ross heard Pepper's response, which was incredibly arrogant, making it clear that he was bullying her and there was nothing he could do about it.

Chapter 474 The Death of General Ross

The helicopters began landing at Stark Estate.

Squads of armed troops stood on both sides, each holding a weapon, forming two well-ordered lines.

General Ross emerged from the crowd and walked along the avenue.

Tony Stark, as Iron Man, is incredibly powerful, but he has never been afraid.

Because regardless of whether Tony Stark is a superhero or not, he possesses immense power.
