Pepper didn't bother to ring the doorbell; she pounded on the door directly. Before she could do anything, the door opened.
"You don't need to say anything. I know why you're here. Tony will be fine. He is the protagonist of this Universe; he has his own mission."
Pepper had just opened her mouth but hadn't yet spoken when Leo interrupted her.
"Really?"
Pepper didn't think much of it and quickly asked.
"Of course."
Leo knew that the current Tony was not the same man who would prioritize the bigger picture and swallow his anger in the future.
Although Pepper received such a definite answer from Leo, she still couldn't relax. This was metaphysics, ethereal and elusive.
Leo then invited Pepper inside, telling her to wait patiently.
"Please come in and sit down first."
"Wanda, Lali, Jean, Natasha, come down. Tony's first battle for justice has begun."
Upon hearing this, the women wondered if this was the 'good show' Leo had mentioned. They all rushed down with a clatter.
Lali was the first to egg them on.
"Here we go, here we go, let's start quickly, hehe!"
Hearing this, Leo immediately had Red Queen access Stark Industries' civilian satellites to track Tony's movements in real-time.
This day was December 31st, late 2009. Everyone remembered this day; they couldn't forget it.
Tony led eleven Iron Man Armors across the sky, neat and swift, with a huge roar and golden fiery tails that made it hard not to attract attention.
"Look! Those are Tony Stark's Iron Man Armors!"
"S.H.I.E.L.D. is indeed unreliable. This is Tony Stark!"
"Haha! It's him alright. This genuine guy hasn't changed a bit; he's still him!"
"The hatred of a murdered father is irreconcilable. If America won't act, then he'll fight for a result himself!"
"This is a true superhero, flesh and blood!"
…Everyone cheered and screamed for Tony. Everyone stopped to watch Tony's actions. This was a true man!
This country, which highly admired individualism, began to boil.
Heroes are also people, not immortals who reside in high temples and enjoy worldly pleasures.
Revenge for grudges, repay kindness for kindness!
This was the superhero they worshipped!
Most people followed Tony's direction, posting his movements online.
They couldn't catch up to the Iron Man Armor, but they could witness this great spectacle.
In a suburb of Frankfort, Kentucky, west of New York, Bucky and Steve were hiding in a villa.
Since it was remote here, they could hide for a while, at least until Bucky's previous injuries had healed before Tony found them.
After these days of recuperation, he was almost fine, and his wounds had mostly healed.
The only downside was that he wasn't used to walking with one arm missing and tended to veer off course.
For a national idol like Steve, Fury had to at least put on a show, right? To win people's hearts, he assigned Steve a dozen reluctant Agents to hide in the shadows.
However, he wasn't the only one owing Steve a favor.
Pierce's subordinates were all brainwashed HYDRA, and he immediately dispatched over a hundred Agents to protect him.
The difference in status was immediately apparent, making Fury curse Pierce, wondering what he was trying to do.
Steal his man? He couldn't openly accuse his benefactor and superior, so he could only stew in his anger.
Everyone at the villa waited silently; they already knew Tony might appear at any moment.
It was just that Tony's target was too clear; he knew exactly where they were.
Ten minutes later, a large number of Iron Man Armors descended!
"They're here! Brothers, prepare for battle!"
These were HYDRA Agents.
"They're here! Brothers, prepare to run!"
These were S.H.I.E.L.D. Agents.
Their attitudes were completely different; the distinction between brainwashed and un-brainwashed was whether they feared death.
"Steve! Bucky! Get out here and face your death!"
This roar made Steve's body tremble slightly. What had to come would eventually come; there was no escaping it.
He sighed at Bucky, "Let's go out. Some things must be faced. It just depends on whether he listens or not."
Bucky nodded nervously. This was truly adding insult to injury; he had just escaped hell and now faced revenge!
This was really bad luck! Which scoundrel even had a video?
When Steve walked outside and saw a perfectly aligned squad of Iron Man Armors, he knew this wouldn't end well.
"Tony, listen to me. Things aren't like in the video. Bucky had already been brainwashed by HYDRA at that time; none of those were his true intentions!"
As soon as they met, Steve painstakingly explained, wishing for a peaceful resolution.
"No! I don't want to hear what you have to say! A life for a life, a debt for a debt – that's a matter of course!"
"I don't care who he is or what he did, he must die!"
How could Tony listen? Is this some kind of trick to appease a child? You think a few words can make everything clean? This was the biggest joke he had ever heard.
"Tony, listen to me. Regarding your father Howard's death, as his good friend, I am also sad and heartbroken, but Bucky truly wasn't willing; he was controlled."
However, it would have been better if Steve hadn't spoken at all.
These words completely enraged Tony. Bucky is your brother, but my father wasn't your friend and benefactor?
Steve's response was a miniature missile, which completely cut off his saintly nagging.
"Hahahaha! Is that answer enough?"
Tony's disdainful rhetorical question followed.
