Tony was stunned for a moment, scratching his head, smiling, and taking another gulp of his chlorophyll.
"Why are you suddenly asking me that?"
"I used to be a S.H.I.E.L.D. agent, you think I wouldn't know?" Kurohane gave a soft cough, then pointed at his eyes with his finger. "If you don't want to talk about it, I won't force you. I'll also be in Washington recently. If you need any help, don't forget to call me."
Kurohane stood from the sofa, shook Tony's hand, then left. His actions were decisive and not at all careless. Even Tony himself didn't quite understand what Kurohane meant. Touching the Arc Reactor in his chest with his hand, Tony's mood suddenly soured. Whether it was information from S.H.I.E.L.D. or information obtained from the Skrulls, there were no new elements that could replace palladium. Even in alien civilizations, such new elements simply couldn't be found...
Though Tony was a scientist with sky-high ambitions, he was somewhat despairing! Therefore, even though Kurohane knew what was on his mind, Tony still didn't reveal his problem.
Tony sighed. "Kurohane, someone whose muscle cells are more active than his brain cells, talking about high-level topics like creating new elements, let alone any suggestions he might have, he probably can't even read the periodic table!"
In short, Tony had now decided to prepare his affairs. His life had entered a countdown, and he had to quickly make arrangements for his friends! Rhodes needed to be equipped for war to face the U.S. Military. As for Kurohane, whether it was the nanobot armor he requested or the pair of stockings that had just arrived, neither could be completed in a short time. He would work on them slowly.
As for S.H.I.E.L.D.... just leave it. That Nick Fury was useless and only caused trouble!
A Sudden Encounter
After leaving Tony's villa, Kurohane planned to return to S.H.I.E.L.D. Nick Fury should have found Black Widow by now. He would arrange for Natasha Romanoff to go to Stark Industries' legal department and become Tony's little secretary. As for her identity, there was no need to mention it. It was guaranteed to make Tony "break out," more or less...
If Tony hadn't hacked S.H.I.E.L.D.'s servers, the Black Widow arranged by Nick Fury might genuinely have been able to deceive Tony. But now, Tony knew S.H.I.E.L.D. far better than Nick Fury himself! If he didn't remind Nick Fury, Black Widow would be like a fat lamb entering a tiger's mouth. Tony would definitely approach this beautiful female agent. The moment she entered Tony's sight, he would ask Black Widow to stay at his villa for the night and become Tony's personal assistant! If she refused? Then she'd be fired! Not wanting to eat fatty meat delivered to his home? That wasn't Tony's style!
Just as Kurohane pulled out his phone, a portal with flying sparks appeared in front of him! A strikingly beautiful bald woman dressed in white emerged, a woman who seemed utterly unyielding. The hairstyle of the strong! And an invincible aura! This was the strongest person on Earth right now, the Ancient One, the Sorcerer Supreme!
Kurohane was shocked. "Huh?! I already left the New York Sanctum where I was hiding! Why did you still find me?!"
Before Kurohane could react, another portal appeared beneath his feet. A strong sense of weightlessness struck, and Kurohane had fallen into the portal! The sparkling portal and the bald Ancient One all vanished, leaving only a phone behind on the spot! It wouldn't break!
After falling continuously for 30 minutes, Kurohane hit a wooden floor hard. The seemingly fragile wooden floor was indeed very fragile when struck.
Boom, crack!
Kurohane broke through two floors in a spread-eagle form, then stared blankly at the large hole in front of him.
Kurohane was bewildered.
