As the luxury car slowly drove down a secluded street, an apparently ordinary homeless man suddenly appeared in the middle of the road.
He wore an orange sanitation worker's uniform, with disheveled hair and a face caked in grime, making it nearly impossible to recognize his true identity.
Just as Hammer's sedan slowly approached and the driver warily prepared to slow down and avoid the sudden "homeless man," something astonishing happened.
Ivan's arms suddenly swung, sending the seemingly ordinary long whip through the air in dazzling arcs.
This whip was no ordinary weapon. It had been woven from a special high-strength conductive material, with miniature current generators ingeniously embedded inside it.
These generators could accumulate and release high-voltage current in an extremely short time, creating a terrifying force capable of slicing through metal and even posing a fatal threat to cars.
Electricity leaped across the whip with crackling snaps, like lightning from nature tamed and freely unleashed at Ivan's command.
Every swing of the whip came with the hiss of ionized air and violent disturbances in the faint Electromagnetic Field around them.
The disturbance delivered a powerful visual shock to the onlookers.
As the current raged, Ivan's sanitation uniform was instantly ignited by the intense heat and reduced to nothing, revealing the Iron Man suit he had meticulously prepared.
This suit lacked Tony Stark's iconic, dazzling armor. Instead, it took a more practical and direct form—exposed mechanical structures intertwined with intricate circuitry, displaying a rugged yet precise beauty.
Though the materials were crude, every aspect of its design embodied Ivan's profound understanding of machinery and energy technology.
At the core of the suit was the Arc Reactor positioned at the very center of his chest.
It was a miniature Nuclear Fusion device Ivan had built with his own hands, based
