Kita Ikuyo's eyes lit up; she couldn't wait any longer.
"These three songs were originally planned for a performance at the Taipei Arena, but unfortunately, time constraints prevented it. I was too lazy to force them, so I settled for this venue instead."
"Next time, let's hold the concert inside the Taipei Arena."
[Zhuge Cong said, but inwardly he smiled bitterly, after all, he didn't know if he would live to see the "next time" he mentioned.]
"Pochi, you shouldn't turn into Pochi-chan again, right? You should be able to handle big scenes like this by now."
"Ah, that's still a little bit difficult."
[Goto Ichiri's voice trailed off as she spoke. This old fear of hers had persisted for so long; despite attending dozens of concerts like this, she just couldn't completely overcome it.]
"Keep going, I have a little time left, I'm going to the restroom."
After entering the restroom, Zhuge Cong took out a blood testing device. The results came back quickly, and looking at the data, Zhuge Cong felt a heavy weight in his heart.
Blood toxin content: 54%.
[His blood toxin levels were already over half full, which meant his death might not be far off. Thinking of this, Zhuge Cong felt a sense of unease.]
Having composed himself, Zhuge Cong even put his bleeding finger in his mouth to taste it, then turned on the tap to wash his face before turning and leaving the bathroom.
"It's already at 54 percent? It seems there was a jump in the middle, but that's not a big deal. The main thing is that Zhuge Cong doesn't have much time left. How is he going to deal with his palladium poisoning?"
"There are several options, but the chance of success for each one is extremely small."
"Could this time the title really be 'The Tragedy of Iron Man'?"
Yagami Light looked at the blood toxin content displayed on the screen by the instrument in Zhuge Cong's hand, which showed 54%.
Although Light Yagami believes that Iron Man Zhuge Cong will not die here, it seems that Zhuge Cong does not have a good solution to his problem at present.
------
"You're not really going to die here, are you? Becoming the first superhero to die?"
"Although that was a very significant milestone for you."
"Actually, you could also choose to be my roommate and go on a long trip to Asagiri to take care of your own problems."
Kazuma Sato muttered to Zhuge Cong beside him.
In fact, Kazuma Sato wanted to comfort Zhuge Cong, but he didn't know how, so what he said turned out to be inappropriate.
"No, you can go to Asagiri to enjoy yourself there by yourself. I'm not fortunate enough to enjoy it, and I don't think I'll just die here like this."
Zhuge Cong shook his head and said that after all, he was a man who had indirectly read the script.
Iron Man won't die here; he'll create new elements instead.
And Iron Man is still waiting to snap his fingers later, unless this is an alternative Marvel storyline.
However, Zhuge Cong thought about it again and realized that this was indeed an unconventional Marvel storyline.
After all, Thanos in the movies doesn't need to face characters other than the Avengers, such as mutants.
Furthermore, Zhuge Cong feels that there might be other characters besides mutants, but they just haven't been revealed yet.
138: Zhuge Cong: I didn't mean anything by making veiled attacks.
However, Zhuge Cong believes that Thanos, when he finally appears, will likely be more powerful than what was shown in the movie.
"Good afternoon, everyone!"
"I am your old friend, the guitarist of the End of the Band, and the famous superhero Iron Man, Zhuge Cong."
[After Zhuge Cong appeared, he looked at the crowd below the stage and spoke.]
The moment Zhuge Cong and others appeared on stage, the concert venue exploded like a lit dynamite, instantly igniting the atmosphere.
"Aaaaaah, Iron Man, Iron Man!"
"Aaaaaah, Iron Man, Iron Man, look at me!"
"Senior Liang, it's Senior Liang! I saw Senior Liang in person! Ah, I... I feel like I'm going to die!"
"Senior Ryo, you're toying with my feelings, aren't you?"
"I'm leaving, ma'am, I'm your fan!"
"Let's go, let's go, that nickname, you little black devil."
"Hongxia, I love you, Hongxia. I want to have your children, Hongxia. How can I live without you, Hongxia?"
"Pochi, Pochi, Pochi, I can't live without you, Pochi."
Judging from the expressions of Zhuge Cong and the other four on stage, they were clearly used to this kind of scene.
"Mr. Zhuge Cong's fan base is truly enthusiastic."
[Vermouth, who had followed, spoke to Shiho Miyano beside her.]
"That guy has always been very popular."
[Shiho Miyano looked at Vermouth disguised as Mami Koyama and said, "I don't know why, but this girl always gives me a strange feeling of familiarity."]
[“A group of seven roads, wah ta si no yi no qi. (My life will eventually fade away like a flower in bloom)”]
【"Ka-e-la-nu-tou-ki-you-bi-ri-ka-zo-e-te-mo. (Even counting the days on your fingers can't bring them back)"】
【“Nanami Big Head Wara-i-ka Koukou Mila-i. (Tears and laughter, past and future)”】
【"HI ki saka re shiwa ta shiwa fuyou on hana. (I am the torn winter flower)"】
[The five members of the band on stage began their performance, with Zhuge Cong naturally taking the lead in singing "Winter Flower."]
As she watched the five members of the band finish their performance on the screen, Hoshino Aiku and Ai-kai thought of her birth mother in this life and her idol Hoshino Ai in her previous life.
The death of Hoshino Ai in front of Hoshino Ai and Hisahisa can be said to be a shadow that can never be shaken off in his heart, but at the same time it is also the reason that motivates him to fight and work hard.
Finding out the murderer who killed Hoshino Ai and the real mastermind behind it all is Hoshino Ai's current priority.
【“Na kan na ide wa ta si no kou yi gou kou ge. (My beloved, please don't cry.)”】
【"Na mi da wa o ma e ni a wa na yi. (Tears are not a match for you)"】
[“There’s a ke to her, there ...
【“Ah, longing for laughter.”】
Backstage, Shiho Miyano was deeply moved as she listened to Zhuge Cong's rendition of "Winter Flower," a feeling she had never experienced before.
However, now that Zhuge Cong is seriously ill and incurable, listening to this song, Shiho Miyano felt as if Zhuge Cong was telling her through the song not to be too sad even if he died, but to face tomorrow with strength.
After "Winter Flower" concluded, it was time for the chorus to sing "If We Could Shine."
Compared to the previous solo performance of "Winter Flower" by Zhuge Cong, which was filled with grief and other emotional outbursts, this duet, "If We Can Shine," offers a more soothing experience.
While listening to "If You Can Shine," Kaori Miyazono, who was undergoing treatment in the hospital, felt as if a stone had been thrown into a calm sea, causing ripples in her heart.
Kaori Miyazono looked around the ward, and the idea that had already sprouted in her heart began to take root rapidly in her mind, inspired by the song "If You Can Shine".
Rather than waiting for death to come like this, it's better to shine brightly within the limited time we have.
Kaori Miyazono shared the same thoughts as another person in the same boat, Sakura Yamauchi.
Sakura Yamauchi may appear strong on the outside, but she is surprisingly sensitive inside.
She was devastated when she learned that she didn't have much time left to live, but she tried to appear optimistic so as not to worry her parents and brother.
While listening to "If I Can Shine," Sakura Yamauchi had an idea. She wanted to write down everything she wanted to do and complete it while she was still alive, so that she wouldn't let herself down.
[As "If I Can Shine" came to an end, we arrived at the final song, also a solo by Zhuge Cong, "LOSER".]
Meanwhile, Kozo Akizuki, fully equipped with his whip-like armor, arrived at the concert just as the song "LOSER" was about to start.
And coincidentally, I also heard Zhuge Cong sing the line, "I am a loser."
[Suddenly, Akizuki Kozo's hand gripping the whip also cracked forcefully.]
[Because Akizuki Kozo felt that he was also a failure, and listening to Zhuge Cong sing that line made him feel that Zhuge Cong was deliberately and subtly calling him a failure.]
[And the reason he had fallen to this state was entirely due to Zhuge Cong. Thinking of this, Akizuki Kozo naturally didn't listen to the rest of the lyrics and directly activated his Whip Chain Armor.]
[To vent his anger, Akizuki Kozo brandished his two large electric whips.]
Some sharp-eyed individuals quickly distanced themselves from Akizuki Kozo, but those who reacted slowly became victims of his whip.
[Akizuki Kozo's actions caused those around him to scream and flee. Some who were further away were initially confused, but upon seeing the menacing and strangely dressed Akizuki Kozo, they knew a bad guy had arrived and also began to run away.]
[The performers on stage, including Zhuge Cong, stopped their performance after seeing what was happening in the audience.]
"You guys run! I'll handle this."
[Zhuge Cong addressed the four people beside him, including Ichiji Nijika, then picked up the microphone and spoke.]
[Ichiji Nijika and the others didn't linger. After all, they knew that staying here wouldn't help Zhuge Cong, and might even hinder him, preventing him from concentrating on fighting the enemy.]
"Everyone, stay away from that madman wielding two seven wolves. Leave him to me."
Hearing Zhuge Cong's words, everyone calmed down a bit. Their earlier panic had made them forget that Iron Man was still there.
[Akizuki Kozo did not deliberately hunt down civilians, but walked step by step towards Zhuge Cong at the center of the stage.]
As Akizuki Kozo walked, he swung his electric whip back and forth, the powerful strikes leaving dark welts in the ground.
