"A bunch of nobodies, wasting five precious seconds of my life!" Zhang nglong emotionlessly glanced over the calm ocean and continued toward the Enhanced Human Ninja base.
Those twelve ninjas died without ever knowing who had killed them.
"Mr. Zhang, please be aware that 80% of the hand laser energy has been consud. Please use it sparingly!"
"Damn, I just fired once, and it's this lousy already?" Zhang nglong complained.
"Mr. Zhang, the continuous cutting action you just perford consus energy tens of tis faster than normal. Of course, if Thor could give you a smack with his hamr, your energy would be fully recharged!" Jarvis said.
"You're quite the joker," Zhang nglong rolled his eyes. The Hamr of Thor might be a great power bank, but its usage cost could probably match that of a Mark 40 suit, right?
"Forget it, I still have 30 micro-missiles left. It shouldn't be a big problem to take down a puny base!"
...
Deep in the Pacific Ocean lies an uninhabited island covered in green vegetation, an island bought privately over a decade ago, away from regular shipping routes.
However, no buildings or signs of human activity can be found on the island.
But unbeknown to anyone, beneath this island lies a massive underground space housing a very special organization.
This underground area is divided into various zones: research, training, living, and command. Every person within these spaces emits an aura of sharpness, keeping outsiders at bay.
In a silver building at the center resides the operational command center of the base, where ninjas on missions can contact and be monitored by the command center.
On a monitor, life signal indicators representing more than a dozen life forms suddenly went dark, throwing the communication officer into a panic.
"Leader, the life signals of Team Three and Team Twelve, who were dispatched to Huaxia, have disappeared!"
"What? In what location?" the leader imdiately asked.
"Approximately 1500 kiloters from the base towards Huaxia's Treasure Island Province!" the staff mber replied, "The ti interval of death… less than 0.5 seconds!"
"What? Did they encounter soone from Longxia?"
"I'm sorry, leader, our n left almost no information. This is their last audio transmission."
"Play it!"
Shhh...
"Iron Man?"
"Am I still dreaming?"
"Is this real? Is it the Aricans, or the Huaxia people?"
Shhh...
"Iron Man? What are they talking about? Were they all drunk?" the leader slamd the desk, unable to deduce anything valuable from the information.
Did they encounter Iron Man in the ocean and get killed by him? Even if he told a schoolchild this, likely no one would believe it.
"I'll go find Mr. Ryuzo!" The leader imdiately left the command center and headed to the nearby training area.
"Mr. Ryuzo?" The leader knocked on the practice room's door, but as soon as his hand touched the tal door, he felt a burning sting.
He pressed his palm closer to the door; clearly, it had been engulfed in high heat.
The leader knew well that their chief, Mr. Ryuzo, a Level Eight Enhanced Human, was the lab's most successful experint. His cells could generate extrely high temperatures, and he could even turn into a blazing fla.
"Click!" The door automatically opened, and a wave of scorching steam erged from the room. A muscular man with his upper body bare walked out, his skin even emitting a faint red glow.
"What is it you need?" Mr. Ryuzo asked coldly.
"Mr. Ryuzo, a few hours ago, the two squads we dispatched to Huaxia were lost in the Pacific Ocean; we have completely lost contact with the Sub-Shark." The team leader reported.
"What happened?" Ryuzo's complexion changed. Every Enhanced Human was a precious asset, and two Chunin were the backbone of this base. This was no small loss.
"It's unclear, everything happened too quickly. Before they died, they ntioned 'Iron Man'. I don't understand what that ans."
"Iron Man?" Ryuzo also appeared puzzled. Was that so kind of code, or did it have so special aning?
"Boom!"
Just then, the entire base violently shook, and a hole more than five ters in diater suddenly appeared above them as a tallic figure in red and gold fiercely burst into the base.
"Beep beep beep beep!"
"An intruder has violently entered the base!"
"All combat personnel imdiately assemble at the central area of the base!"
All the Enhanced Humans in the base quickly gathered in the central square, and the mont they saw the intruder, everyone froze, including Ryuzo Ichiro.
"Mr. Ryuzo... this..." The expression on the team leader's face was sowhat distorted.
"This is impossible!" Ryuzo Ichiro's face grew terribly fierce. Now he knew what the two squads ant by their last words before they lost contact — it really was fucking Iron Man!
"More than two minutes have passed since the signal disappeared, covering a distance of 1500 kiloters. Its flying speed must be at least 30 Mach!" The command center team leader calculated the data of the armor, which made his breathing sowhat constricted.
All the defensive weapons in the base were aid at the silhouette hovering in the air, but nobody dared to make a move.
"Who's your boss?" Zhang nglong asked.
No one answered.
"Whoosh!" A miniature missile shot out from the armor and landed on a building.
"Boom!" A ball of fire instantly engulfed it, and the explosion razed the building to the ground.
"Damn, such powerful force!" Zhang nglong exclaid in surprise. Judging by the power of the miniature missiles, probably only 10 would be necessary to destroy the entire base!
"Who are you?" Ryuzo Ichiro stepped out from the crowd, his body temperature starting to rise.
"Damn, a wild non-mainstream!" Zhang nglong couldn't help but laugh upon seeing Ryuzo Ichiro's style.
"Looks like you're the boss here?" Zhang nglong patted his armor and spoke in fluent Kaibong language, "Clearly, I'm Iron Man, don't you know? You guys don't have any entertainnt normally, right? That's too pitiful!"
"Your Excellency, it appears that the mbers of our organization were killed by your hand? I wonder where we have offended you?" Ryuzo Ichiro said.
"You sent people to kill within my Huaxia territory, and you still dare to ask where you have offended ?"
Ryuzo's complexion changed. Their operations were highly confidential; unless there was a mole, how could it be leaked?
"Are you dispatched by Zhang nglong?" Ryuzo didn't understand the full extent of Longxia's power, but he was aware of the general capabilities, and such technology, let alone in Huaxia, even Arica with its most advanced technology couldn't produce it.
The only possibility was that Zhang nglong, a man wealthy enough to rival nations, had sohow manufactured this armor!
At that thought, a chill ran down his spine.
"Your Excellency, this is a special base of Kaibong. I hope you will leave imdiately to avoid any unnecessary conflicts!" Ryuzo Ichiro lowered his tone, as the command center leader had told him that the energy intensity emanating from the armor was more than ten units!
Such power had already surpassed the standards of a level nine Enhanced Human. In this base, no one could contend with such an entity!
"Fine, I'll dismantle this place then leave!" Zhang nglong scoffed. "Jarvis, lock the missiles and destroy all the facilities on the island!"
"Swoosh!" Ryuzo Ichiro's face instantly went pale.
