Marvel Gashapon Maniac

"Okay, are you Tony Stark's illegitimate son? With whom? Are you going to inherit the company?" The reporter nodded decisively and continued to ask.

"I didn't mean for you to be formal in this aspect!" Fu You was about to lose it. Couldn't you guys get to the point?

"In short, Tony Stark is in seclusion researching new equipment. I'm just his spokesperson; it has nothing to do with him."

Fu You quickly denied it, saying that these reporters always wanted to create a big news story.

To prevent Tony from becoming a father after returning from his training, Fu You decisively ordered security to separate the reporters, who then slipped away.

However, as Fu You learns more, he realizes just how terrifying a reporter's wild imagination can be.

……

"Hey, have you guys found any news about Stark Industries' press conference?" The man with the buzz cut asked, flipping through the newspaper.

The newspaper headlines were all: "Shocking! Tony Stark has an illegitimate child and has temporarily taken over the company."

"Tony Stark has illegitimate children?" The man with the buzz cut looked at the newspaper strangely as he drank his beer.

"No, we couldn't find it. The headlines are all about illegitimate children." Several people around him were also flipping through newspapers and throwing them on the ground.

“Impossible. How could Tony Stark remain silent? That’s not his style.” Killian, sitting at his desk, was also flipping through various newspapers, looking for news about Stark Industries’ press conference.

Although the injury to his driver was an accident, it suited Killian's purposes perfectly.

Given Tony Stark's personality, he certainly wouldn't tolerate being hurt by his own people; he would come out and make threats, or even wait for them to come knocking on his door.

but……

What the heck are all these gossip headlines? Do you guys care more about gossip than terrorists?

Killian was a little depressed, as if he had taken a stove to go out for a barbecue and suddenly a heavy rain poured down on him, soaking his underwear.

"Boss, I found it." Suddenly, a soldier slammed a newspaper on the table.

"Huh? Where is it?" Killian looked left and right, but couldn't see the message.

“This.” The soldier pointed to the section below the Daily Bugle: “Tony Stark declares he will take down terrorist Mandarin and has published his address.”

“That’s right, this is it.” Killian smiled, having flipped through countless newspapers before finally finding the information he was looking for.

"Let's go, prepare to attack that villa." Killian commanded the crew-cut man and his men to launch the attack.

"Boss, are we not going to do anything about this so-called Stark bastard?" a soldier asked, scratching his head.

"What's so surprising about Tony Stark having an illegitimate child? I bet the one in Maya's family is Stark's bastard too."

Killian was seething with hatred at the mere mention of Maya. Although it was indeed Dr. Maya who provided him with the Extremis virus, now that the plan to kidnap the president was about to succeed, she actually didn't want to continue.

I don't know where he went today, he's really annoying.

"Don't worry about the illegitimate children, just take them all out. Go!" Killian decisively ordered.

……

"These reporters really believe everything they hear," Fu You thought, holding a newspaper in his villa, a headache forming in his mind.

Luckily, he used the Daily Bugle he bought from Tony to post the news of the press conference. Otherwise, with all this gossip, Killian and his gang probably wouldn't have been able to find him, which would have been embarrassing.

Fu You deliberately chose a remote villa with little armor, because he didn't want to help Tony clear out the armor when a fight broke out.

Although he didn't care about the money, it's like even the richest person wouldn't let others touch their figurines.

Fu You isn't Thor; he doesn't have the habit of destroying things.

"I wonder if the Extremis Virus can be used to enhance myself," Fu You pondered this question.

He has quite a few skills and weapon abilities, but the regenerative power of the Extremis virus is indeed quite tempting.

Since Tony himself can write optimized formulas and also perform healing, it's not unreasonable for him to try some of them.

"A lifetime of hard work by others can't compare to a drunken Tony's casual scribbling. Is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person?" Fu You couldn't help but complain.

Whether it's magic or technology, Tony's talent is undeniable. Fu You always felt that if Tony continued to grow like this, he might create something similar to the magical devices in Magical Girl Lyrical Nanoha.

"Mr. Fu You, someone is ringing the doorbell," Jarvis suddenly called out.

"Connect me to the video feed and communication," Fu You said, opening the screen. "Hello? Who is it?"

Standing in front of the door was a woman, who, although a little older, was impeccably dressed and had a scholarly air about her.

“I’m here to see Tony Stark,” the man said.

Fu You recognized the person as Dr. Maya Hansen, one of the characters in the story and the creator of the Extremis virus.

"Open the door, Jarvis." Fu You turned off the screen and went out to greet him.

"Hello. I'm Maya Hansen, an acquaintance of Tony's," the visitor introduced herself.

"Dr. Maya, it's a pleasure to meet you. How can I help you?"

Although the person in front of him is the creator of the Extremis virus, the current mess is mainly due to Tony's "shoot and get the formula" promotion, and Fu You can only clean up his mess.

Maya did not reveal her purpose for coming, but looked Fu You up and down a few times.

"You don't look like Tony."

"Because I have no relationship with him. If I had to say what the relationship is, it would be like that of a client and an employee." Fu You was already used to how this group of people viewed him today, and calmly retorted.

"And then he handed over the company's decision-making power to you?" Maya said with a smile.

“Uh…” Fu You was speechless for a moment: “Probably because I’m very capable.”

1. As usual, I'm asking for all sorts of things.

2. It's rumored that Princess Connect's Chinese server is launching soon; there's already news about it, and the release date will be announced later. We can play Skunk on the Chinese server now! (laughs, no punishment)

3. JoJo is over, I'm going to die.

4. The book mentioned in the previous chapter is *Me, Bronya, and the Ghostly Girl*. Although it doesn't appear outwardly, it's actually a Marvel novel.

Chapter 28 Talisman Protection Plan

“I want to see Tony Stark; I have something to say to him,” Dr. Maya said.

"Tony Stark is in seclusion researching just how low the temperature is in the Himalayas. You can talk to me about anything."

Fu You wasn't lying; Tony was indeed experiencing the temperature of the Himalayas, albeit with his own equipment and frequently returning.

"Fu You, did you see that bottle of red wine I drank last time?" Just as Fu You finished speaking, Tony pushed open the basement door and came out.

Tony pushed open the door, glanced at Maya, then at Fu You, and gave her an expression that said, "This kid has grown up."

"You've learned to call..."

"I didn't! Don't talk nonsense! She's about your age! I'm not into older men!" Fu You knew Tony wasn't being nice after hearing just half a sentence, so he interrupted and retorted.

“Tony Stark, do you remember me?” Dr. Maya said to Tony.

"Hey, beautiful, you look familiar. Haven't we met before?" Tony teased flirtatiously, looking around for his red wine.

"So how exactly does 'one time' work?"

“It was a long night… Hmm? That voice sounds familiar.” Tony paused halfway through his sentence, then abruptly turned his head to look.

Boz was smiling at Tony while holding the document, and Tony suddenly felt a cold sweat break out on his forehead.

"Oh ho. Miss Boz, do you need me to get the washboard?" Fu You couldn't help but gloat when he saw Boz enter. Tony, that flirtatious guy, still needs Boz to keep him in check.

"Go ahead, and while you're at it, open the durian in the fridge," Bozi said casually.

"No, no, no, I've known Dr. Maya Hansen for a long time, we really don't have any deeper relationship anymore. You know what I used to be like," Tony quickly explained, "It's all mistakes I made when I was young."

“You still recognize him, don’t you?” Maya couldn’t help but laugh as she looked at Tony, who seemed to have lost his temper.

“We’re just acquaintances, thanks. We’ve only discussed science together, haven’t we?” Tony winked and hinted.

"Yes, we've worked together before."

Tony quickly moved closer and helped her sit down, taking the opportunity to ask in a low voice, "Don't tell me there's a 12-year-old waiting for me in the car. Is this what you wanted to see me about?"

“You’re wrong, he’s 13,” Maya said seriously. “Stop joking around, I need your help.”

"Now? What's going on?" Tony asked, puzzled.

“I think you’re in danger right now. I saw it in the newspaper,” Maya said, sounding a little anxious.

"A newspaper?" Tony, who had just returned, was completely bewildered and didn't understand what had happened.

Dr. Maya pulled out the Daily Horn and pointed to a small section: "Didn't you declare war on the terrorist Mandarin?"

"WTF? Who's Mandarin?" Tony looked blankly at the words in the newspaper, but he knew who to ask: "Fu You!"

Fu You scratched his face: "I'm cutting durian, cutting durian. You guys chat."

Fu You simply kept his head down and started cutting fruit.

Tony walked over and asked Fu You:

"What are you doing here? How did you get involved with terrorists? Isn't that dangerous?"

"Don't worry, do you think terrorists can beat me?" Fu You said confidently. Even with the Extinction Virus, those people were no match for him. That's how arrogant he was.

“Although they can’t beat you, what if they assassinate you?” Tony was still a little worried. As he spoke, he pulled up the cutting board and dumped the durian into the trash can.

Bozi turned a blind eye to this and said nothing.

"Sir, we've detected a flying object nearby," Jarvis suddenly said as the group chatted.

"Huh? A flying object?" Tony was taken aback. "What is it?"

"It's a helicopter. The enemy has already launched an attack," Jarvis replied quickly.

At the same time, the news was broadcast on television.

Tony Stark is in crisis as terrorists attack his villa.

On the television screen, a missile, trailing a long tail, hurtled towards the villa.

"They've already arrived?" Fu You placed his hand on the bracelet. He had many ways to defend against ordinary missile attacks, but now he needed to use a specific angle to transform first.

"Huh? What are these people doing? Do they underestimate me, Tony Stark?" Tony didn't panic at all when he saw the missiles coming, and even poured himself a glass of wine.

"The defense system is activated and is operating under the Fuyou Protection Plan."

As Jarvis finished speaking, alloy panels descended from the villa's French windows.

The missile did hit the villa, but it only shattered the exposed French windows; the alloy panels remained untouched.

The destructive power of such a conventional missile meant that Tony could calmly finish a bottle of red wine and then check if the group had any ammunition left.

"Huh? You added security to the villa?" Fu You looked at Tony in surprise.

"Why shouldn't I take extra precautions? What if I get attacked sometime?" Tony didn't understand why Fu You was asking this.

Fu You was stunned. "You actually know how to activate the protection!"

Tony asked, "???"

The way Tony discovered his house was bombed in the original version and only found out by watching TV was so amazing that Fu You even thought Tony hadn't installed a defense system on the villa at all.

Even before the attack, the TV station received the news, but Jarvis did not, which made Fu You wonder if Tony had turned everything off at the time.

"Tony, what's wrong?" Booz and Maya rushed over, somewhat flustered after witnessing the missile attack.

"It's nothing, someone just challenged the security system of my villa, Tony Stark." Tony shrugged.

"How could they think a few helicopters could take me down?"

Fu You glanced at the television screen; the helicopters outside were firing machine guns at the alloy plates, but it was clearly ineffective.

"This isn't going to work. I'll go out and deal with them." Fu You drew his Gale Blade, intending to teach those people outside a lesson and show them what true mercy is.

“No need.” Tony reached out to stop Fu You and pointed to the screen: “The reinforcements for the follow-up plan have arrived.”

"Quickly find a way to blow this damn board up!" the crew-cut man roared from the plane.

"Don't worry, you don't need to work so hard anymore, because you'll all die here now." Suddenly, a synthesized electronic voice interrupted the buzz-cut man's roar. Looking up, he saw dozens of Iron Man mechs hovering in mid-air, staring at him.

“S·H·I·T…” The man with the buzz cut only had time to utter a refined and easygoing exclamation before he was blown up by a bunch of mechs’ weapons, along with the helicopter.

"Sir, the final phase of the Fuyou Protection Plan, the family gathering, has been completed, and the enemy aircraft has been destroyed," Jarvis reported the situation.
