Knocked Away

At that moment, Pepper Potts walked up to Charlotte and said, "Mr. Charlotte, Tony seems to be losing control. Could you please try to talk him down?"

"You are his savior and his friend, he will definitely listen to you."

Just as Pepper Potts was speaking, Tony on the stage spotted Rhodey in the crowd, his smile widening. He then addressed the beautiful women standing below, saying, "Want to see the fireworks?"

"Throw the bottles up here!"

Upon hearing Tony's words, a supermodel holding a bottle threw it into the air, but Tony immediately blasted it away with Repulsor Blast strike.

With the shattered bottles and spraying liquor, the crowd below, after a moment of stunned silence, erupted into even louder cheers.

Tony's smile widened, and he shouted again, "Continue!"

As bottles were thrown at him one after another, Tony immediately fired Repulsor Blast with both hands simultaneously, and even used the Unibeam on his chest to shatter the bottles, making the explosions and cheers resound throughout the entire Villa.

Seeing this, Pepper Potts cursed "bastard!" and then looked at Charlotte, saying, "Please!"

Charlotte frowned slightly as she looked at Pepper Potts, who was trying to get him to stop Tony's actions, and then said, "Perhaps Tony has been under too much pressure lately. Let him relax a bit."

"Perhaps this is a good thing for him, after all, he hasn't done anything reckless."

"Isn't that right, Pepper Potts?"

Listening to Charlotte's words, Pepper Potts glanced at Tony, who was fooling around on stage, and indeed thought about Tony's experiences over the past six months. Then, as if she had figured it out, she stopped trying to persuade him and picked up a glass of wine from the Beverage Area, drinking it down in one gulp.

Then Rhodey, on the other side, couldn't stand it any longer. He ran straight to Tony's Laboratory downstairs, entered the password, and went inside.

Upon entering the underground Laboratory, Rhodey indeed looked around and discovered that all the Iron Man Armor Tony had previously visited were gone, leaving only an unpainted Mark II.

Without much thought, Rhodey walked over and put it on using the mechanical device.

Tony was still fooling around on stage when Rhodey's voice could be heard:

I'll only say it once: Get out!

As Rhodey finished speaking, the mask on his face fell down, and the crowd below saw yet another suit of Iron Man Armor. They immediately thought of the Monaco incident and all ran outside.

Tony felt relieved to see Rhodey running up in his armor, a smile playing on his lips. He had received a reminder from Jarvis when Rhodey was about to put on the Mark II, and this Mark II was one that Tony had specially reserved for Rhodey.

Tony's change in expression was noticed by Tsunade and Charlotte in the Beverage Area. Tsunade looked at Charlotte and said, "Did you see that? What is he planning?"

"Let's wait and see; perhaps he has his own ideas!"

Pepper Potts, standing to the side, looked at the two of them with a puzzled expression. "What are you talking about?"

At that moment, Rhodey, wearing the Mark II armor, walked up to Tony and said, "You don't deserve to wear Iron Man Armor. Take it off."

Tony ignored Rhodey, turned to the DJ behind him, and said, "Godstein."

"Yes, Mr. Stark."

Give my bro some really upbeat music.

Godstein obediently played a piece of music as background music for the event.

Rhodey grabbed Tony from behind. "I told you to take off your Iron Man Armor."

Tony instantly closed his mask and fired his foot-mounted jets, sending Rhodey flying. The two crashed through several windows and landed in the Gym.

Tony ignored Rhodey, who had fallen behind him, and continued provocatively, "Put it back, so no one gets hurt."

Rhodey, however, couldn't stand this insult and grabbed a discus from the side, smashing it over Tony's head.

With a "clang," Tony's head snapped to the side, and as he turned around, he saw another discus flying towards him.

"Are you serious?!"

He then picked up Dumbbell and threw it at Rhodey, sending him flying onto the Boxing Ring. The two then began to fight back and forth in the Gym, using the equipment.

The two fought from downstairs to upstairs and back again, and for a time they couldn't determine a winner.

Pepper Potts, witnessing the scene unfold, spoke to Charlotte again, "Mr. Charlotte, please stop them. This can't go on."

"Alright, it seems I have no choice but to take action!"

Charlotte put down her wine glass, instantly appeared between the two, and grabbed both of their arms.

"That's enough!"

Rhodey watched as Charlotte used her bare hands to subdue the Iron Man Armor, but he was already furious and blurted out, "You're no better than me, you don't deserve to be a superhero."

Hearing Rhodey ' words, Charlotte frowned slightly, then released her grip on Tony and turned to Rhodey, who was wearing Mark II, shouting, "What are you barking about, you idiot?"

However, Rhodey saw Charlotte's detailed information at the base and was very dissatisfied with this assassin who was also racist.

As Charlotte turned around, Rhodey realized that in his anger he had blurted out his true feelings. He was about to apologize when Charlotte's silence further enraged him.

Rhodey swallowed back the words of apology he wanted to say, and raised his other arm to deliver Repulsor Blast to Charlotte, to show her that he was not someone to be trifled with.

Seeing Rhodey ' actions, Charlotte showed no mercy and immediately unleashed her Strength of a Hundred, gathering blue Chakra in her fist and throwing a punch that struck Mark II in the stomach.

"Boom!"

Rhodey was instantly blasted out of the Villa.

At this point, Tony realized he had gone too far. He knew very well how much Charlotte hated black people, but Rhodey was his only black friend. So he quickly used Jarvis to tell Rhodey to run and never come back.

Tony removed his mask and immediately said, "Buddy, buddy, don't get angry!"

"That guy's out of his mind, just ignore him."

Hearing Tony's words, Charlotte glanced at Rhodey, who had been knocked away but hadn't returned, then at the Villa, which was now empty except for Happy, Pepper Potts, Natasha, and Tsunade. She grabbed Tony and said:

"Why did they suddenly decide to give this guy a suit of Iron Man Armor and create this whole scene?"

"Look how worried Pepper Potts is about you."

Tony glanced at Pepper Potts beside him, then said somewhat awkwardly, "He stole it..."
