Marvel Gashapon Maniac

However, only Tony and Fu You were in the restroom.

"Hey, Fu You," Tony said, leaning against the sink and deep in thought, "your mecha energy, and the power behind that spell you cast earlier, weren't provided by scientific elements, were they?"

“Huihui’s power comes from the sealing stone. If you’ve ever experienced having your power extracted, you should know what that is. I don’t really understand magic either,” Fu You explained to Tony, crossing his arms slightly.

“And the twin ponytail bracelet…” Fu You paused, seemingly thinking, “The driving energy of the twin ponytail bracelet is exactly what it sounds like, it’s the power of twin ponytails.”

"The power of twin tails?" Tony looked at Fu You's current twin tail hairstyle with a strange expression. Fu You had always had straight hair before, but now she had changed her hairstyle.

"It's the manifestation of the energy from loving twin tails to the extreme." Before he could finish speaking, Fu You suddenly felt that Tony's gaze towards him had become strange, so he quickly said, "Don't look at me. This is a specially modified model. I'm not using my own twin tail power."

“It doesn’t sound like the type that can replace palladium…” Tony shook his head, abandoning the idea of ​​borrowing the energy system from Fu You.

"Whether you lend it to me or not, humph." Fu You turned his head away, a little annoyed, as if his own driver system was useless. Although the side effects were embarrassing, its performance was far superior to yours.

"Never mind, don't worry about it." Tony put away the diagnostic equipment and waved to Fu You: "Come on, let's go for a spin at the racetrack."

1. Of course, I'm still asking for all sorts of things.

2. Ivan's look in the movie has a real philosophical feel to it. I always feel like he's about to say something like "FA."

3. I feel that Tony needs to experience a life-or-death crisis; it's part of his growth.

I thought about it today and decided to create my own group.

I created a new group today, group number 600195320. It'll be used as a book club for readers. It would be even better if the readers who join didn't pressure me for updates. Thank you to those who don't pressure me for updates. (Thanks in advance)

After all, this book doesn't have many readers yet, so I'm keeping it running while it's still relatively easy to manage. Based on my calculations, it'll probably only get around 20-30 minutes; I can't expect everyone to be urging me to update more.

Chapter 36 I Will Crush You

“This car is mine.” Tony walked straight to a race car upon arriving at the racetrack and said directly to the instructor next to it.

“Hey, you can’t do that. This is our team’s honor, this is our dream.”

Tony didn't care at all. He simply took out his checkbook, quickly wrote down a string of numbers, and tossed it to the coach.

"Um... this car is yours, please, please, please." After glancing at the amount on the check in his hand, the instructor immediately changed his expression and invited Tony into the car.

"How about it, Fu You, do you want to try one out too?" Tony pointed to the race car next door.

“That’s the Gáe Bolg, last year’s champion race car. Are you interested?”

"Hmm. Forget it, I don't have the habit of racing outside of the game." Fu You decisively rejected Tony's invitation, not only because she had to guard against Ivan's intrusion later, but mainly because he felt that the name of the car next door was very unreliable.

The name of this race car always brought to mind a man in a blue jumpsuit who died on the track because he couldn't turn.

Although F1 cars are different from rocket cars, it still feels a bit strange.

"Alright then." Tony didn't press the issue when he saw Fu You's firm refusal, and started getting used to the car's handling.

Fu You sat back down in the stands, looking at Tony with a serious expression.

No one remains calm when they know they're going to die, and Tony was no exception. Perhaps in his mind, this was his final vacation; although he was still searching for a solution, he had already essentially given up halfway.

Ultimately, Tony is still limited by conventional technology. His armor is indeed amazing, but it still uses normal elements and technology, just ahead of its time.

"How about we leave him a way out?" Fu You looked at the four gacha capsules in the system that he hadn't drawn yet, and had some ideas.

There's no doubt that life and death are the greatest opportunities for growth. Tony needs this experience to toughen him up, but I might be able to get my hands on something that can help ease his emotions.

In the original storyline, Tony's decadent and dissolute appearance was indeed quite pathetic. After all, he was about to die, so why couldn't he have some fun?

"Let's try our luck with a random gacha pull."

The first gashapon capsule cracked open, emitting colorful light from inside.

"Wow? Not bad luck." First SSR draw, a great start.

【arrow】

An arrow forged from an unknown meteorite carries an unknown ancient virus at its tip, and those infected have a 50% chance of dying.

If the host adapts to the virus and does not die, it will gain special powers.

-

"Uh, shit egg's power."

[Arrow] A special item in JoJo's Bizarre Adventure. Being pierced by an arrow has a certain chance of turning you into a Stand user.

Mental energy can solidify and grant the user unique superpowers. These range from simple cooking and therapeutic food to more complex abilities like stopping time.

This thing does have a small chance of getting Tony out of danger, but... what if you stab someone who wouldn't normally die and they die?

This thing is for the luckiest people only; if you're unlucky, you'll die after inserting it.

"No need, let's not gamble with our lives." Fu You put away the arrow, somewhat speechless. He had no intention of gambling on whether he was lucky or unlucky.

The second shot was less satisfactory, just a white flash.

-

【Kama-en Senbei】

One of the specialties of Koba City, it can relieve abnormal conditions after consumption.

-

"Uh, Vermilion City. Pokémon?" Fu You didn't recognize the name Flamebeaver, but he did remember Vermilion City.

A city in Pokémon, the city where the gym where Pikachu battled Raichu is located.

This is probably an item meant to be fed to Pokémon; I wonder if it would have any effect on humans.

Let's try drawing more samples.

Third shot

-

【Banquet Special Skill: Flowers, Birds, Wind, and Moon】

The ability to conjure water jets out of thin air using a fan is a popular banquet skill.

-

"Emmm, no comment."

Fourth shot

[Domain Equipment: White Ribbon]

The third-generation Valkyrie armor is designed with the concept of "versatile, all-terrain combat armor".

Only Valkyries of rank B or higher can use this. Equipped with jet propulsion, military-grade goggles, and other enhanced weaponry, it is a basic armor suitable for most combat situations.

-

"Damn?" I didn't get anything that could cure the poison, but I did get an unexpected bonus.

The White Chain Armor used by Kiana in Honkai Impact 3.

Although the Armor set is as its name suggests, training with it is pointless, it is still one of the three starter Pokémon. It's like choosing one of three Pokémon in Pokémon—basic and familiar.

Although Fu You's twin-tail bracelet has much higher armor performance than Bai Lian's, Bai Lian is equipped with a system that Fu You envies.

[Time-space fracture]

Schicksal has developed a special system based on the abilities of the Second Herrscher, Sirin, which can slow down the passage of time in the surrounding area, thus creating an effect similar to bullet time.

Compared to the research value of the armor itself, this feature is much more appealing.

Fu You's first move was to integrate the armor's performance into his bracelet by directly opening the enhancement interface.

Type mismatch

The system directly displayed the words "Fu You" in large characters.

"Um... transformation items and simple armor don't match, do they?"

Since it can't be matched, Fuyou needs to find a way to replicate this system. It seems that without Honkai energy, he probably wouldn't be able to drive this armor.

If there is anyone in this world who can unravel the secrets of the Valkyrie armor, then it must be that person.

However, he may need some small help now.

……

Outside the arena, Ivan, dressed in staff uniform, slowly walked into the arena.

He activated the arc reactor he had built using Russian methods, and the reactor began to power his weapon.

They were two long whips, crackling with electricity as the reactor's energy flowed into them. Enhanced by this energy, these whips could easily slice through steel, as easily as butter.

Ivan swung his whip and raced against the current towards the oncoming race car, the overflowing energy from the reactor burning his shirt.

The philosophically inspired, strappy bodysuit was exposed, eliciting gasps from the surrounding audience.

It's unclear whether they were frightened by Ivan's behavior or surprised by the free spirit emanating from this man.

Ivan casually cleaved an oncoming race car in two, causing it to overturn and fall to the side.

That bright red race car belonged to last year's champion, Gáe Bolg.

It seemed as if some mysterious force had orchestrated his fate, preventing him from escaping its judgment.

Tony's race car was not far away and had already come into Ivan's view.

Ivan licked his lips excitedly, feeling like he could chop Tony into sashimi any minute now.

Before Tony arrived, he saw a figure who had come to the track just like him.

A young girl, a frail girl in Ivan's eyes.

“Hey, little guy. If you don’t leave here, I’ll tear you to pieces,” Ivan kindly warned.

"Heh." Fu You snorted coldly and drew the Rebellious Greatsword: "I will crush you."

1. Of course, I'm still asking for all sorts of things.

2. I didn't expect so many people to join the group today. It was a bit unexpected. I hope everyone is okay with not sending me my medical insurance card.

Chapter 37 Do you want to eat dog food?

"Hiring such a petite woman as a bodyguard, that's really Tony Stark's style." Ivan sneered and lashed out with his whip.

There is no tradition of not hitting women in Russia, because you might not even be able to beat a woman.

Fu You blocked the whip's attack with Rebellion, but due to the whip's properties, it wrapped itself around the Rebellion Greatsword without cutting through it.

"Huh? It wasn't cut open?" Ivan asked, somewhat surprised.

He believed his whip could cut through any weapon and armor, including Tony Stark's suit.

However, Ivan was puzzled as to why he hadn't cut open the strange greatsword.

"If you don't understand it, just snatch it and read it slowly." Ivan used his Russian-style brain to think for a moment and decisively came to a conclusion.

With a sharp pull on the whip, Ivan intended to snatch the rebel away.

Pull—wait, what the hell? Why can't I pull it?

Pull again—but there's still no movement?

Where is my arm strength that I used to arm wrestle with a bear?

Looking at Ivan, whose face was flushed red, Fu You smiled disdainfully.

Trying to outmuscle me? You're a complete idiot.
