Marvel Gashapon Maniac

……

Everything in the shop is a gashapon toy.

Fu You recalled the fear he once felt when he was dominated by lotteries.

And what's most disheartening is that these gashapon capsules are free.

As we all know, free things are often the most expensive. While you can get the paid stuff with money, free things all have cooldown periods, meaning you just have to wait.

The same applies to the gashapon toys in the store; they don't require purchase, but they have a 12-hour cooldown period.

Drawing one from a vast array of gashapon capsules is enough to make someone with decision-making anxiety die on the spot.

"You will receive one random gacha pull as a starter, and then one more gacha pull opportunity."

"Let's try a random one first. If it doesn't work, we can just abandon the mission." During the time he was struggling with this decision, Fu You took a quick look at the instruction manual on his phone. There was no penalty for abandoning the mission.

Of course, abandoning the mission means forfeiting the data energy reward it provides. While we don't know what it is, since it's a mission reward, it must be something usable.

"Random gacha." Looking at the peculiar gacha that was jumping around on the screen, Fuyou felt as if he had found the feeling he had when FGO was first launched.

Since we had nothing at the beginning, we wouldn't lose money no matter what we offered.

Just as Fu You was thinking this, the bouncing gashapon stopped, and a crack appeared on it.

Colorful light burst forth.

"It's an SSR!"

The light faded, and the lottery items were displayed on the screen.

【Double Ponytail Bracelet (Modified)】

The Twintail Warrior Transformation Bracelet allows you to transform into the Twintail Warrior. The drive system has been modified so that transformation can be performed without using Twintail Energy.

(Note: Some physical changes may occur, but they are harmless.)

-

I don't believe you for a second; your system is awful.

As a long-time Bilibili user, Fu You also watched the classic gender-swapped anime "I Want to Be a Twintail" back in the day. The male protagonist underwent gender transformation because he wore this bracelet.

The male protagonist is an ordinary boy with a perverted fascination for twin tails, but once he uses the bracelet, he transforms into an adorable and lolita-like twin-tailed girl, making it a classic gender-swapped anime.

No harm? Doesn't psychological trauma count as harm?

"I, Fu You, would rather die poor! I'll never fail a system mission! Nor will I wear women's clothing to fight!"

"..."

"I've never tried this before. Why don't we try what the transformation looks like?" Fu You couldn't help but think.

Looking at the red bracelet on her right wrist, Fu You suddenly felt a strange sense of anticipation.

"No, no, I can't lose my integrity." Fu You shook his head, banishing the bold idea from his mind.

"Assassin's Creed Gacha." Fu You was well aware of his luck. Rather than trying to obtain invincible power through a lottery, he preferred to see if he could draw something he could use now.

This time it was obviously a white light; as expected, getting good items in the opening gacha pull was all an official conspiracy.

-

The enemy is deaf and blind.

As long as you crouch down and stand behind cover, those who can't see you directly will simply ignore your presence. This is ineffective against opponents with strong sensory abilities.

(You walked past me without seeing me?)

-

"Is this called Ubisoft Gacha?" Fu You, who had played Assassin's Creed, certainly knew what this skill meant, because sometimes when playing Assassin's Creed, you would feel like the other person had seen you, but you just didn't notice.

I don't know if it's blindness or a survival instinct.

Fortunately, this skill is enough to deal with some terrorists.

Just sneak in and wait for Tony to finish building the mech before firing out. Stay on the sidelines and observe.

Having made up his mind, Fu You headed towards the cave according to the map.

The little deaf-blind's skill was indeed demonstrated; almost no one on the road noticed a figure sneaking in from the side.

This is also because these terrorists are not vigilant and tend to be scattered in small groups.

It was impossible for just one or two people on guard duty to discover Fu You, so Fu You gradually became bolder than he had been initially cautious.

Having managed to sneak into the cave by taking a few grenades and a chicken leg along the way, Fu You managed to slowly make his way in.

The guard at the gate was also not there; what good luck!

Just as Fu You was thinking this, a sound suddenly came from behind him.

"Hey, has anyone seen my chicken leg?"

A terrorist carrying a submachine gun walked up from behind, and the two men froze in shock.

The terrorist looked at the chicken leg in Fu You's mouth, while Fu You looked at the submachine gun in the terrorist's hand.

"Fake!"

"Transform!"

……

"Ethan, let's proceed as planned," a middle-aged man with a thick beard instructed the balding man beside him.

That middle-aged man was Tony Stark, the Iron Man in the story.

Although the terrorists kidnapped him intending to make him manufacture weapons, he ended up making all sorts of other things.

A suit of steel armor.

Tony is currently instructing his assistant Ethan on how to assemble the Iron Man suit. A bomb has been planted at the front door, which will explode if anyone tries to force the door open from the outside.

This plan was originally intended to keep out terrorists outside, but now there are no terrorists outside the door.

A flash of light, and the gate was split in two.

……

"I almost crashed, luckily I reacted quickly."

The iron gate was kicked open, and a girl with long blonde hair appeared in front of Tony.

"Who...who are you?" Tony asked instinctively, his mind still a little blank.

"me?"

"I'm just a Kamen Rider who's passing by, no need to remember me."

1. This is the second update of the day, the third chapter will follow. It's the May Day holiday, I'm out having fun, so it might be a little late. As always, please recommend, favorite, and vote! Anything is welcome!

2. My writing is not very good; I will practice more.

3. I want to save Stark (Inuyama-san's face)

Chapter Three: The Birth of Iron Man

"Get reinforcements! We can't hold them off here!"

"We can't stop that tin can!"

"Shoot! Shoot!"

After donning his armor, Tony fought his way out unstoppable, bullets unable to penetrate the armor's defenses.

"Ethan! Stay close to me! And you, you, stay behind me." Tony's voice came from under his armor, sounding somewhat muffled.

"Fu You, thank you."

"Your Chinese names sound really strange."

Tony turned around and carefully examined the girl in front of him, who looked to be 15 or 16 years old. She had long, golden hair that reached her waist and emerald green eyes that resembled jade.

The girl in front of him had a figure that was basically the best among her peers, and now the combination of a small amount of mechanical armor and a tight-fitting suit made Tony even more interested.

Of course, this is only from a scientific perspective. Tony is more interested in whether this mechanical armor, whose material is unknown, is merely decorative or holds more significance.

"If it were a different setting and I were older, I probably would have gone up and struck up a conversation," Tony thought.

Hmm. After all, Tony feels he prefers someone a bit more mature; even if a kid has a good physique, he's still just a kid.

I wonder what Tony will think after he finds out Fu You's true gender.

"We're about to leave, Dr. Ethan, come with me." Seeing the light, Fu pulled Ethan aside.

Looking at Fu You, who was squatting to one side with Ethan, Tony glanced at the cave entrance and then at the two of them.

“Me?” Tony pointed to himself.

“You’re the only tank on the field, so of course you should go.” Fu You betrayed his teammate without hesitation.

Although the armor on my body is now quite strong after using the twin-tail bracelet, who wants to take bullets?

Tony's big metal shell is still the most durable; I'll just stay on the sidelines and observe.

Tony, confident in his armor, walked straight out of the cave.

Outside the cave, a group of terrorists aimed their guns at the entrance. As soon as they saw Tony emerge from his armor, they all opened fire.

Unfortunately, their weapons were simply not enough to break through the defenses, and a magazine of bullets was quickly emptied.

"Finished?" Tony's confident voice came from his armor, and the surrounding terrorists took a step back in fright.

But this step was not enough to save their lives.

"My turn now." Tony's armor unleashed a torrent of flames from its hands, instantly sending the surrounding terrorists screaming and collapsing to the ground.

"Let's go, Dr. Ethan." Fu You took the opportunity to run out of the cave with Ethan. Everyone's attention was drawn to Tony's armor, and no one noticed Fu You and Ethan.

"Dr. Ethan, run away from here. I'm going back to help." After running a short distance, Fu You told Ethan to run ahead while she returned to the terrorists' camp.

Tony is currently burning everything in sight, intending to burn all the weapons he sees.

The terrorists hiding on higher ground saw Tony swagger out and immediately pulled out their machine guns and opened fire.

Under normal circumstances, the machine would never have been able to affect Tony's armor, but that person was incredibly lucky and broke the chain on the right side of Tony's armor.

Tony was gradually suppressed by the firepower, after all, the range of the flames was limited.

"Friend, stop for a moment." Fu You, who had returned, struck the terrorist on the head with the back of his knife, sending the terrorist crashing face-first into the rock in front of him.

"Hitting someone with the back of a knife shouldn't kill them, right? Probably." Fu You said uncertainly, looking at the blood splattered on the stone.

The burning munitions around them began to explode, and Tony, suppressed by the firepower, had no choice but to activate his backup plan: an immature flight device.

Flames erupted from beneath the armor's feet, and Tony flew a short distance like a cheap firecracker before crashing diagonally to the ground.

Fu You saw Tony take off and retreated. An explosion occurred behind her after she rolled over the hillside.

All the weapons were destroyed, and the remaining terrorists were all caught in the explosion; it's estimated that none of them survived.

Tony crashed headfirst into the desert, his mech parts shattered everywhere.

"Hey, Stark. Are you alright?" Dr. Ethan, who happened to be running over, quickly walked to Tony's side and asked about his condition.

"...You're alright, still alive." Tony took off his helmet and pulled himself out of the sand.

Ethan helped Tony to his feet.

"Thank you so much this time, Ethan." The terrorists must have been completely wiped out, and Tony instantly felt a sense of relief.

"Ethan, I'll take you to see your wife and daughters by private jet afterward."

"..." Upon hearing this, Ethan fell silent.

“Stark, I lied to you before. My wife and daughters... are actually dead.”

“Ethan, I’m sorry.” Tony saw through Ethan’s intentions; he just wanted an excuse to get support from him.
