"Simba, bring me my suitcase."
[Zhuge Cong took out his headphones, put them on, and spoke to Tsukasa Shishio backstage.]
[Backstage, Tsukasa Shishio had already seen Kozo Akizuki through the security cameras. Knowing the seriousness of the situation, Tsukasa grabbed a red and white briefcase brought by Zhuge Cong and ran towards the stage like lightning.]
Fortunately, the concert venue was large enough, and the fact that Kozo Akizuki insisted on walking over step by step gave Tsukasa Shishio ample time to bring over Zhuge Cong's suitcase.
[The Lion King Tsukasa, who had run out, placed the briefcase on the stage and then carefully pushed it towards Zhuge Cong's feet.]
[Zhuge Cong stepped onto the red and silver briefcase, which instantly enveloped his foot and stood upright.]
After setting it up, the briefcase unfolded to reveal two lever-like handles. Zhuge Cong reached for it, then pressed it against his chest.
The Iron Man armor was instantly placed on Zhuge Cong's body, and then the remaining parts were automatically assembled on him according to a pre-programmed sequence.
"This suitcase looks familiar."
Gordon, dressed in a suit, looked at the briefcase under Zhuge Cong's feet on the screen and remembered when he visited Zhuge Cong with his men over the weekend.
Zhuge Cong showed them the suitcase-style Iron Man armor he had created to deal with unexpected events.
Both the style of the suitcase and the way it looks after being dressed up are exactly the same as what I saw on the weekend.
"Is this the portable Iron Man armor we saw last weekend?"
The young man in the suit standing to the side looked at Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor and the familiar way he wore it and said something.
"It's pretty much the right one."
Some onlookers, eager for a good spectacle, felt their position was safe and stopped running outwards, ready to witness Iron Man's fighting stance firsthand.
[Some people even excitedly pulled out their phones to film, imagining that after posting the Iron Man battle video and gaining millions of views and a large number of followers, they could start selling products as livestreamers, and then capitalize on the momentum by claiming to have depression.]
[Then she said she was back and started doing the "Don't Laugh Challenge" and the "Free Meal Challenge."]
[Zhuge Cong leaped off the stage and ripped off two seats, smashing them down on Akizuki Kozo.]
The flying seat missed Akizuki Kozo and was instead whipped in two by his whip.
【"grumble!"】
[Zhuge Cong's palm cannon emitted a sharp, piercing sound as it aimed at Akizuki Kozo.]
【"Bang."】
[This shot missed Akizuki Kozo, who nimbly dodged it; the missed palm strike went straight through several seats.]
[Zhuge Cong's strategy for dealing with enemies was to fight them until they were unable to retaliate; for the most heinous crimes, he would kill them on the spot.]
Just as Zhuge Cong was about to fire another shot, Akizuki Kozo rolled over and lashed out with his whip, striking Zhuge Cong's outstretched right hand.
[Zhuge Cong looked at the damage report for the Iron Man armor and discovered that the armor on his right arm was damaged to the point of being unusable.]
[Akizuki Kozo then lashed out with his whip again, striking Zhuge Cong in the chest and sending sparks flying. A large section of Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor was also torn open in the chest area, but fortunately, the damage wasn't severe.]
The weakness of the portable, reactive Mark 5 armor is its severely insufficient defense; it wouldn't be enough to cripple a right arm with a single whip strike, nor would it leave a severe wound to the chest with a single blow.
"This Akizuki Kozo is also a capable young man, with such excellent hands-on skills. It's just a pity that he has embarked on a wrong path of no return."
Professor Agasa looked at Kozo Akizuki on the screen and shook his head with some regret.
After all, if Akizuki Kozo had been given more time, better materials, and better equipment, the Whip Chain Armor he created would probably have been even more powerful.
Instead of the post-apocalyptic punk style we see now.
[Akizuki Kozo smiled with satisfaction as he looked at the extent of the damage to Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor.]
After all, this indirectly proves their strength.
[Zhuge Cong's palm strike was blocked by Akizuki Kozo's whip.]
Unconvinced, Zhuge Cong unleashed another palm strike, only to have it blocked again by Akizuki Kozo's whip.
[Akizuki Kozo lashed Zhuge Cong's left arm with one whip, then struck his right shoulder with another.]
[Then, with the aid of the Whip-Lasso Armor, he delivered a judo throw to Zhuge Cong.]
[Iron Man's armor slammed into the ground, creating a dent and making a crisp metallic clang.]
[It's important to know that the electric current emitted by Akizuki Kozo's whip cords is not only powerful, but it also constantly interferes with his Iron Man armor.]
[Then, Akizuki Kozo slammed Zhuge Cong back and forth a few more times. By this time, Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor looked tattered and was constantly sparking.]
[Akizuki Kozo pulled out one whip, while the other was wrapped around Zhuge Cong's neck.]
[Zhuge Cong, kneeling on one knee, was also abandoning his palm strike and deciding to engage in hand-to-hand combat, since Akizuki Kozo had absolutely no protective gear.]
[Zhuge Cong reached out and grabbed the whip cord that was wrapped around Qiu Yuexiao's neck, then approached Qiu Yuexiao step by step.]
[Akizuki Kozo, seeing Zhuge Cong approaching, began to panic. He brandished another whip at Zhuge Cong, but Zhuge Cong grabbed him instantly.]
[Without his double whips, Akizuki Kozo was like a tiger without claws, helplessly watching Zhuge Cong approach step by step.]
[Zhuge Cong first delivered a powerful punch to Akizuki Kozo's face, followed by an over-the-shoulder throw.]
139 Gokou Ruri: Could he be the second Iron Man?
【"Bang."】
Although Akizuki Kozo's whip armor was rather rudimentary, it still helped him withstand some damage, preventing him from being unable to get up after being thrown to the ground by Zhuge Cong's over-the-shoulder throw. After all, the force of Zhuge Cong's throw was amplified by his Iron Man armor.
However, he was still somewhat dazed from the fall, and the pain in his back made him unwilling to move.
【"Crack!"】
[Zhuge Cong directly reached out and removed the energy source from Akizuki Kozo's whip armor.]
Looking at the energy core in his hand, Zhuge Cong was surprised to find that it was not much different from the miniature arc reactor in his Iron Man armor.
However, Kozo Akizuki's miniature arc reactor was rather rudimentary.
Zhuge Cong looked at Akizuki Kozo and felt it was a pity such a talented person was wasted.
[Soon, fully armed police officers who had arrived from the surrounding area surrounded Akizuki Kozo, who was lying on the ground, and then lifted him up.]
[Akizuki Kozo, who had been lifted up by the armed police, showed no sign of annoyance or regret. Instead, he spat out what was in his mouth and looked at Zhuge Cong's tattered Iron Man armor, smiling as he spoke.]
"Hahaha, you lost, Iron Man, hahaha."
"You lost to Zhuge Cong, haha, you lost."
[Zhuge Cong watched as Akizuki Kozo was carried away, then crushed the knock-off miniature arc reactor in his hand.]
At this moment, Shinomiya Un'yō watched Akizuki Kōzō being carried away on television and gave a thoughtful, enigmatic smile.
"Akizuki Kozo will probably be imprisoned. Given his abilities, I don't think Hydra will let go of such a talented researcher."
"But judging from Shinomiya Untaka's smile, he probably intends to bring Akizuki Kozo under his command, since Shinomiya Untaka is also involved in weapons research and development."
"So the next step is to see whether Hydra or Shinomiya Un'taka will get there first."
Qianxun 31281ч139
Looking at Akizuki Kozo being carried away by armed police and locked in a police car in the light screen, Imamura Kohei also thought of the scene shown in the light screen earlier where he was forced to join the Hydra organization.
"I think Shinomiya Un'taka has a better chance of getting his hands on Akizuki Kozo than Hydra."
"After all, while we don't know the exact size of Hydra, the Shinomiya Group is still very powerful."
Kitahara Iori, who was standing nearby, felt that Akizuki Kozo might not necessarily be imprisoned in a prison controlled by the Hydra organization. In that case, the chances of the Hydra organization making a move to get Akizuki Kozo first were not very high.
Furthermore, they didn't know exactly how powerful the Hydra organization was, but at least they knew how powerful the Shinomiya Group was.
"Cong, are you alright?"
After Akizuki Kozo was taken away by the armed police and put into a police car, Ichiji Nijika, who was closer to Zhuge Cong, ran over to ask him something.
"I'm fine, it's just that my suit of armor is probably due for retirement."
[Zhuge Cong glanced at the damage to Iron Man's armor and said, "Actually, I don't need Jarvis to give me the data report; I can see it just by looking at it."]
"It's good that you're alright. If something had happened to you, no one would have lent me money, treated me to meals, or written lyrics for me."
[Yamada Ryo, standing to the side, breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing that Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor was damaged but he was unharmed.]
"That guy is your enemy, the supervillain that superheroes have to deal with."
[Watching Kozo Akizuki being carried away, Kita Ikuyo thought of the supervillain storylines unique to superheroes in manga.]
"Him, a supervillain?"
"If he had waited a little longer to improve his armor, I might have admitted he was a supervillain. Right now, he's just a prisoner who's good at sewing."
"Besides, as for an enemy, I've never even met him. At most, it's a one-sided hatred on his part, and he's made me his target for a challenge."
[Zhuge Cong rambled on, after all, the concert was going well, but it was suddenly ruined by such a formidable madman, so naturally Zhuge Cong wasn't in a good mood.]
"We can hold the concert another time. You should head back today. I'll send someone to take you there."
"Goodbye, everyone."
After speaking, Zhuge Cong turned and soared into the sky towards his home. In mid-air, Zhuge Cong showed no signs of relief after defeating a powerful enemy; instead, his expression was grave.
"Indeed, being able to build a knock-off miniature arc reactor is quite impressive, but it's a pity that the equipment and materials limited him."
