After removing the Arc Reactor from Tony Stark's chest, Obadiah, believing Tony was surely dead, stopped hiding his true intentions and openly admitted to his past actions.

Back in Afghanistan, he ordered the terrorists to kill Tony Stark, and he always used Tony as a tool to make money, exploiting his talent in weapons manufacturing to make money for him.

Only then did Tony Stark fully realize Obadiah's true colors and deeply regret his previous naiveté and ignorance.

Before leaving, Obadiah proudly told Tony that he had created an even more powerful Iron Man suit, and that the miniature Arc Reactor would serve as the core of this powerful new generation weapon, helping him to control the entire world.

Furthermore, after Tony, he is about to target Pepper Potts, which makes Tony Stark extremely anxious, but he is powerless to stop it.

Without the power supply from the Arc Reactor, the electromagnets inside his chest cavity could no longer hold onto the shrapnel in his chest, and they began to slowly move towards his heart with his blood. Tony Stark appeared extremely painful and weak.

However, due to the nerve paralysis device, he was completely unable to move and could only sit slumped on the sofa, feeling death approaching, powerless to stop Obadiah.

After Obadiah left the villa triumphantly with the Second-generation Arc Reactor, Chen Mo slowly emerged from the underground laboratory, holding a newly manufactured Third-generation Arc Reactor in his hand.

Tony's initially desperate gaze turned excited the moment he saw Chen Mo. After Chen Mo installed a new reactor for him, the electromagnet started working again, attracting the shrapnel that was moving towards his heart. He was finally out of danger, and his complexion gradually improved.

Chen Mo then called Agent Coulson, instructing him to take Pepper Potts to a safe place and immediately send people to evacuate the area near Stark Industries.

Pepper Potts has obtained evidence that Obadiah was secretly dealing in arms and ordering terrorists to kill Tony Stark. He will definitely be desperate and a major battle is inevitable. With the Iron Man suit's immense power, nearby civilians could easily be harmed.

Following Chen Mo's orders, Phil Coulson disregarded Pepper's request for him to gather men and arrest Obadiah, and took her to the New York office of the Strategic Homeland Intervention, Enforcement and Logistics Division.

The place was heavily fortified and had underground bunkers, so even if Obadiah attacked in his Iron Man suit, he wouldn't be able to harm Pepper.

Tony finally breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that Pepper Potts was safe.

Once the effects of the nerve paralysis wore off, a fully recovered Tony Stark immediately stepped onto the equipment platform with a murderous look on his face and put on his Iron Man suit.

Obadiah obtained the miniature Arc Reactor, which gave his Iron Man suit a power source. Although it is unknown what kind of suit he actually created, since he was able to instruct terrorists to attack him and claimed to have created a larger Iron Man suit, he must have obtained the blueprints for the Mark I left at the base, and may even have included the prototype that crashed in the desert.

Obadiah now has complete control of Stark Industries. With the company's strength, having the blueprints and prototypes, it wouldn't be difficult to manufacture Iron Man suit even more powerful Mark I.

The only thing that could hold him back was the energy source that powered his Iron Man suit. Now that he has obtained the Second-generation Arc Reactor from Tony, his Iron Man suit is powered.

Given Tony Stark's understanding of the Iron Man suit and Stark Industries' research capabilities, even if Obadiah's Iron Man suit wasn't personally crafted by him, but rather improved upon by Stark Industries engineers based on the Mark I, its destructive power would still be extremely astonishing.

He must be stopped immediately. Tony will not allow his creations to be used by others for evil purposes and to harm the innocent.

Chen Mo did not stop him. A powerful warrior must undergo the tempering of battle. To become a Super Hero, Tony will inevitably have to go through countless battles in the future, Obadiah is a good training partner.

Moreover, he has to deal with the people who betrayed him.

Although they had been working on the new Third-generation Arc Reactor and the quick-dressing suit system during this time, Tony did not leave the Mark II completely idle.

Tony, very satisfied with the armor, took the time to modify it, adding a weapon system and repainting the entire suit. Just like in the movie, he adopted a gold and red two-tone paint job similar to one of his vintage cars, making it vibrant, eye-catching, and stylish.

After completing his gear on the platform, Tony Stark nodded to Chen Mo and Yinsen, then activated his thrusters to accelerate and leave through the tunnel.

After Tony left, Chen Mo quickly put on his Adamantium Alloy Combat Suit, opened the door of a sports car parked in the garage, and got in.

Seeing this, Yinsen quickly ran to the other side to get into the car.

"You're going too? Take me with you!"

Upon hearing this, Chen Mo couldn't help but recall the scene in the movie where Dr. Ethan, in order to buy Tony time, brandished a rifle and roared as he drove away several terrorists in a cave. It has to be said that even terrorists are afraid of the usually refined Dr. Ethan when he's fearless.

However, there's clearly no need for him to risk his life right now.

"Yinsen, you stay here. There is a very difficult task that needs to be completed by you."

Upon hearing this, Dr. Ethan immediately stopped, looking at Chen Mo with a determined expression, as if he were ready to die for his cause.

"Don't worry, leave it to me!"

"What mission?"

Chen Mo stepped on the gas, and with a deep, loud engine roar, the sports car accelerated forward and rushed into the passage.

Chen Mo's voice came from the car.

"Give me directions, I don't know the way."

Although Chen Mo drove the sports car to its maximum speed under the guidance of Yinsen's version of the artificial voice navigation system, creating a scene of Fast & Furious, it was still not as fast as Tony Stark's Iron Man suit.

When he arrived at Stark Industries, Tony had already been fighting a much larger Iron Man Armor for quite some time, and many of the surrounding buildings had been demolished by their battle.

Fortunately, this was a Stark Industries campus, where employees had already gone home, and civilians within a radius of several kilometers had been evacuated and a cordon had been set up. Therefore, apart from destroying a large number of buildings, the battle between the two did not cause any civilian casualties.

However, their battle was so intense that it spread from the factory to the road, creating a spectacular scene that was witnessed by many curious onlookers in the distance.

Obadiah's Iron Monger was clearly much cruder and outdated Mark II, but its massive size gave it enough space to install a more powerful engine. So in terms of sheer power, it was much stronger than Tony's Mark II, and its thick armor made it very difficult for Tony to break through its defenses.

So when Chen Mo arrived, he saw Tony being overwhelmed by Obadiah, and he could only rely on the Mark II's greater agility and speed to fight off the Iron Monger.

The suit had multiple scratches on its surface, clearly indicating that it had suffered considerable damage. Fortunately, the Mark II's Titanium-gold alloy enhanced composite armor was strong enough to prevent it from being completely dismantled.

Stark Industries is an arms manufacturing company, so it naturally has no shortage of weapons. The Iron Monger's massive size also allows it to carry more, larger, and more powerful weapons.

However, the engineers who created the Iron Monger didn't have Tony Stark's talent to hide all the weapons inside the suit; most of these weapons were directly attached to the Iron Monger's body.

Unlike in the movie, because Obadiah's left hand was cut off by Brock Rumlow, the Iron Monger's left hand was replaced with a heavy Impact Hammer that could unleash a powerful impact to knock enemies away.

As Iron Monger once again used the Impact Hammer to send Tony flying, trapping him in a maze of twisted steel pipes from which he was temporarily unable to escape, the armor on Iron Monger's back slowly opened, extending a heavy missile more than a meter long, which locked onto Tony and fired at him.

This is the most powerful weapon equipped on the Iron Monger, and the only one hidden inside his suit. Its power is enough to take down a tank head-on.

If the Mark II had been hit directly, it would have suffered significant damage. Fortunately, Tony managed to escape from the twisted steel just as the missile was approaching, thus avoiding a direct hit. However, he was still thrown into the air by the immense force of the missile's explosion.

As Tony tumbled through the air, he activated the thrusters under his feet and the flight stabilizers on his hands, hovering steadily in mid-air, making it impossible for Obadiah to catch him.

"Wow! That's amazing! You upgraded your armor?"

Obadiah's arrogant voice emanated from within the Iron Monger, praising the Mark II.

"What a coincidence! I also made some improvements!"

After Obadiah finished speaking, the Iron Monger's legs began to deform, extending two thick thruster nozzles. The thrusters then ignited and started, spewing out a strong stream of flames that propelled the Iron Monger upwards.

Although the Iron Monger's thrusters were significantly inferior to those of the Mark II, its massive size somewhat compensated for this deficiency, giving the cumbersome Iron Monger the ability to fly.

Seeing Obadiah controlling the Iron Monger flying towards him, Tony quickly increased the thruster power and flew into the sky.

Obadiah, determined to kill Tony, also turned his thrusters to maximum power. Fierce flames and thick smoke billowed out, and the massive Iron Monger trailed two thick columns of smoke as it chased Tony into the sky.

In the instant the Iron Monger took off, Tony's mind raced, and he couldn't help but think of the Mark II's test flight, when Chen Mo sternly stopped him when it reached an altitude of 150,000 feet.
