Obadiah stared intently at the screen. Every detail in the footage was like a sharp blade, slicing through the calm in his heart.
He had thought his understanding of the Iron Man suit was deep enough. After all, he had once been Stark Industries' second-in-command and had witnessed Tony Stark's countless innovations and breakthroughs firsthand.
Yet the truth revealed at this moment was like a heavy hammer smashing fiercely into everything he knew.
Obadiah had previously assumed that the Iron Man suit had been developed after Tony Stark returned and saw War God Industries' Power Armor.
Only now did he learn that Tony Stark had created the Iron Man suit himself from nothing inside these people's base.
"We did indeed underestimate Tony Stark."
White Skull's voice was low and forceful. Every word sounded like an evil ghost crawling out of the abyss, carrying an indescribable malice.
He operated the control panel, and the footage continued. The image froze on Tony in the Iron Man suit, gleaming with a cold metallic sheen, like an arrogant god of war freely unleashing his power and fury.
"We also did not expect Tony Stark to create such a weapon, resulting in our base being destroyed."
As White Skull spoke, the footage reached the moment when Tony erupted in the Iron Man suit and dominated the battlefield.
"I witnessed that thing's power myself..."
Obadiah muttered, recalling the time he had worn that imitation Iron Man suit. The sensation of power beyond human limits still left him shaken to this day.
Even an army equipped with the most advanced weapons was nothing more than a mantis trying to stop a chariot before the Iron Man suit, let alone those completely unprepared people.
As the footage continued, Tony in the image was like an enraged god. Enemies
