Stark Industries.

As a secretary, Pepper managed to infiltrate Obadia's office, took out the lock chip that Tony had given him, and inserted it into the computer.

As the chip operated, the data in the computer began to be cracked, and Pepper found not only a large amount of information about Obadiah's illegal arms trafficking, but also other more important evidence. By cracking a folder, Pepper discovers that Obadiah is working on a secret research and development project in Section 16 of the Stark Factory, and that the product of this research project is a steel armor.

Pepper looked at the appearance of the armor shown on the blueprint, and subconsciously frowned.

The armor shown in the document was very similar to what she had seen in Tony's house before, but it was significantly larger, as if it were an enlarged and thickened version of the steel armor.

Immediately afterward, Pepper found more important evidence in the computer files.

Video evidence of Obadiah's private collusion with Afghan militants to kidnap Tony Stark

“OMG！”

Pepper muttered to herself, quickly manipulating the computer to transfer all the content to the chip.

But just then, Obadiah's voice came from outside the door.

"So, what do you think we should do?"

"I know you're in trouble, Pepper. Tony, he always makes something better, doesn't he? ”

Pepper was taken aback by the sudden arrival of Obadiape, and with a forced smile on her face, she secretly picked up the newspaper in front of the office to cover the chip, while carefully converting the interface into a screen saver.

"When he came back, I was really happy, as if I had rescued him from the ghost gate......" Obadiah came to Pepper's side with his glass in hand, and said in a serious voice.

In the past, Pepper might have been moved by Obadia's remarks, but after learning that he was the mastermind behind Tony's kidnapping in Afghanistan, Pepper felt only deep fear.

"But apparently, Tony is not the same Tony as he used to be, and the kidnapping has affected him so deeply that Stark Industries could be catastrophic because of his recent moves."

"I know, I'll try to admonish Mr. Tony."

"You're such a good woman, Pepper, and Tony don't even know how lucky they have been lately."

"Thank you for the compliment."

After a conversation with Obadiah, Pepper managed to delay enough time for the chip to finish copying.

Immediately afterward, Pepper quickly covered it with newspaper and pulled out the chip, got up and left his seat.

"I have to go back, there's a lot of work waiting for me."

"Is that the newspaper of the day?" At that moment, Obadiah suddenly spoke, asking Pepper, who was about to walk out of the door.

"Yes." Stopping, Pepper's expression a little nervous.

"Mind giving it to me?" As he spoke, Obadiah stepped forward and stretched out his hand.

"Of course I don't mind."

Raising his hand, he handed the newspaper in his hand to Obadiah, and Pepper took the opportunity to collect the chip in the palm of his hand.

"Then I'll go first, Mr. Obadia."

"Take care, Pepper."

After pretending to be calm and greeting Obadiah, Pepper turned around and glanced down at the chip in his hand, and then sped up and ran downstairs.

On the other hand, Obadiah checked the newspaper and threw it away, walked back to his desk, and woke up to the computer screen to find four large words on the screen: backup complete.

“Shit！”

Seeing this, Obadiah's face changed, and he quickly turned around and chased after the elevator.

Coming downstairs, Pepper saw that the agent who had previously looked for him was sitting there.

"Miss Potts, we made an appointment, did you forget?" Looking at Pepper in a hurry, Agent Phil asked.

"No, you haven't forgotten, follow me right now."

"Now?"

"That's right, now, go to your office." Turning his head and glancing at Obadia, who was standing in the corridor on the second floor, Pepper breathed heavily, "I think I might need your help." ”

……

Although Pepper successfully discovered Obadia's secret through the chip and enlisted the help of Agent Phil, it was clearly a step too late.

Obadiah managed to get the energy core in Tony's chest and activate his Iron Overlord.

"Pepper."

Outside of the Stark factory, with the original miniature ark reactor left behind by Pepper, Tony really wore his steel armor and rushed to the sky.

"Tony, Tony, are you alright?" Escaping from the factory, Pepper said with a panicked expression: "Obadiah, he's crazy, he used your previous wreckage to make a set of armor......"

"I know, Pepper get out of there!"

In mid-air, Tony shouted at Pepper on the other side as he flew at a rapid pace. 、

Apparently, though, his reminder was a little late.

With a loud roar and the cracking of rubble, Obadiah maneuvered his Iron Overlord out of the ground.

"Where do you think you'll be able to escape?" Through the heavy steel armor, Obadiah's voice was a little distorted, and he raised his arm, and the magazine in his hand turned: "Now, I'll send you to Tony." ”

"Hey, Obadiah!"

However, before Obadiah could finish speaking, a familiar voice from mid-air made him subconsciously raise his head, and then he saw a red figure rushing towards him.

Boom –

The force of the impact caused Tony and Obadiah to crash through the wall like two heavy cannonballs, falling on the busy road, causing a series of traffic accidents.

"Tony, you're not dead?!"

Raising his hand and smashing a car towards him, Obadiah looked at the 'petite' steel armor in front of him, his tone full of surprise.

"My life has always been big." Under the mask, Tony raised an eyebrow and replied with the same expression.

"I'd like to see if you'll ever come back to life after I smash you flat." As he spoke, Obadiah got up and lifted a car full of people, spun around and shouted at Tony.

"Drop them, Obadiah."

"They deserve it."

In the middle of the road, Obadiah and Tony, dressed in steel armor, fight.

In the distance, on the roof of a high-rise building, a man in a white spotted suit with a bob head crossed his waist and his head held high to watch the scene on the road.

Noticing the scene of Obadiah carrying the car, he frowned slightly, and then opened his arms without any protection on his body, and jumped directly from the roof.

"Sticky Fingers!"
