The test of becoming a billionaire

Shazo chuckled and said, "Of course, it's still Kingpin."

"Who told him to be the kingpin of the underworld? If I, a cop, don't beat him up, who else should I beat up?"

"Yes, this time I'm going to do it openly and honestly. As long as I do it cleanly and efficiently, the bigwigs behind Kingpin won't bother me because of a dead man like him."

"After all, I am just an individual, while a conglomerate is a massive force. A conglomerate can ruin my life, and I can also wipe out all the members of a conglomerate."

"With the deterrent force of military power, and given that my interests are not aligned with those of the chaebols, peace can be maintained."

"Of course, my life will change drastically afterward."

"Even if I could still work for the NYPD, I couldn't be a patrol officer anymore. The New York Police Department spends a lot of money, and I'd have to move my family to Long Island."

Skye listened with longing. "Boss, now that you say that, I really get the feeling that you're a rich man."

Shazo suddenly spoke up and asked, "Skye, you need to practice the ' Tiger Roar Thunder Sound Skill ' diligently. After we get back, we'll go take care of Kingpin together."

Skye jumped up excitedly. "Really? Can I really participate?"

Shazo nodded and said, "I can wait for you for three months, until you have mastered the Tiger Roar Sound."

Skye nodded earnestly in agreement. "I will try my best."

The next day, the two flew back to New York.

Skye did not return to Cornell University to continue her studies, but instead applied for a three-month leave of absence.

She moved into Shazo's house and, under Shazo guidance, diligently cultivated, rapidly increasing her strength.

During this time, Shazo also did not go to work. Apart from instructing Skye in training, he would sit on his sofa, staring blankly at the Tattoo on the back of his left hand.

He sensed so much in this Tattoo; it seemed to contain all the information about the creation of the Terrigen Crystal and the sealing of the Crystal as Obelisk.

Most importantly, the core of the information likely involves energy—an energy source far more advanced than the Arc Reactor, which Iron Man may or may not have even built.

Without a doubt, it must be nuclear energy, specifically nuclear fusion energy.

Shazo's attention was naturally drawn to it. If he could figure out and understand the knowledge contained in this Tattoo, he could repay the Naruto Shazo.

Over the years, so many times, I've been the one taking advantage of Naruto Shazo. I'm really sorry about that.

Shazo and Skye were engrossed in their own activities, and time flew by.

A month passed in the blink of an eye, Shazo informed Jordan that he had started to go long on Stark Industries stock.

This time, he dared not take any risks and forced Jordan to only increase the leverage by 10 times.

A few days later, news of Tony Stark's rescue spread, and Shazo's assets tripled again, soaring to 2...

800 million.

Without hesitation, he turned around again and shorted Stark Industries.

Shazo's assets surged again to $4.2 billion after Tony Stark announced the closure of the military-industrial complex.

Once the stock transaction was completed, Shazo made another 180-degree turn, going long on Stark Industries stock, waiting for Tony to transform his industrial group into a clean energy giant.

At that time, he will instantly become a billionaire.

Neither Shazo nor Jordan used leverage this time, not because they didn't want to, nor because Shazo couldn't grasp the specific timing, but because the stock market for industrial sectors is only so big, and there's no way to make more money.

In this situation, increasing leverage serves no purpose other than increasing one's own risk.

Without considering the possibility of doubling the investment again in the future, Shazo invested $11 million and reaped $4.2 billion worth of stocks, bonds, and cash from the stock market, achieving a net profit of nearly 400 times.

Remember, this is his after-tax income after he honestly paid his taxes and did not engage in any tax avoidance.

In other words, Shazo's actual profit exceeded 750 times.

This the Miracle made him shine, becoming a household name in the United States upper echelons of society.

All sorts of gazes were fixed on Shazo, some filled with envy and admiration, others with greed and a desire to seize power, and still others with an irresistible urge to test him.

Shazo's assets of 4.2 billion yuan are 99.9% stocks, bonds and cash, which can all be used as cash.

There's an old saying in the financial markets: cash is king.

Even established trillion-dollar conglomerates like Lehman Brothers only had a cash flow of around $4 billion.

Whichever conglomerate receives this money, it can double its business and increase its profit-making speed by four or even five times.

Therefore, greed swelled uncontrollably.

Besides the capitalists in the financial system, there was another person who hated Shazo to the core: Obadiah Stein of Stark Industries.

Currently, the Stark Industries stock held by Shazo is only publicly traded stock, and accounts for only 8.3% of the total, making him merely the fifth largest shareholder of Stark Industries.

But so many shares represent a huge amount of cash. Given Stark Industries' current precarious situation, dumping them all on the market could drain Stark Industries ' cash flow.

At that point, Stark will face a dilemma: either borrow heavily to buy back shares to maintain the stock price valuation, or turn a blind eye and let the stock price plummet.

But both choices lead to the same result: Stark Industries is doomed.

Obadiah Stane considers Stark Industries his own sworn enemy. He couldn't even tolerate Tony Stark, whom he'd watched grow up, so how could he possibly tolerate Shazo Dawson, who could destroy Stark Industries at any moment?

But for a moment, no one dared to make a move.

First, true veteran capitalists are those who operate across multiple industries, possessing powerful information gathering capabilities.

They knew that Shazo had killed Typhoid Mary, captured the mercenary Bullseye, and most likely hanged the assassin in prison.

They even learned from Kingpin that the downfall of Mexico drug queen Melissa and her Private Army was also inextricably linked to Shazo.

That's awkward.

Capitalists are human beings too. Although they have degraded themselves to be slaves to capital, they are not so indifferent to their own lives.

If the other party is a powerful being capable of taking one's life, it's not impossible to accept that the other party becoming one of one's own.

Too many top-level elites were eager to know just how powerful Shazo was and whether he was qualified to possess this massive amount of cash.

When capitalists reach a complete consensus, that monster called capital will solidify its will.

The monster raised its whip, tightened its grip on the leash, Kingpin into the arena.

Kingpin one who knew best just how dangerous Shazo; he had even escaped New York long ago and was remotely controlling his underworld empire.

He had reported Shazo's ferocity and power more than once, but his masters did not believe his empty words; they needed him to prove it with his life.

Kingpin certainly didn't want to die, but he was powerless to escape the will of capital and could only frantically beg his masters for support.

Capitalists also generously contributed Kingpin and effort to help Kingpin clear all the obstacles in the process.

Kingpin returned to New York with an entire army.

This is a real army, with most of its soldiers coming from French Africa. They are quite well-known mercenaries in chaotic regions such as Africa, South America, and the Middle East.

The powerful figures had to pay a considerable price to allow this army to enter New York with both light and heavy weapons.

But Kingpin still felt it wasn't enough, so he spent a fortune converting Wilson Building into a fortress and stockpiling a huge number of weapons.

Looking at the modification blueprints Skye had found, Shazo Zuo laughed and said, "See? I told you I didn't have to put in any effort. They practically delivered Kingpin my doorstep."

"Now that we've got Kingpin sorted out, we can start working on the move."

Having rebuilt her worldview, Skye was no longer surprised that Kingpin was forced to his death. Confidently, she suggested, "Boss, since it's about demonstrating strength, wouldn't it be better to destroy Wilson Building?"

Shazo praised, "Excellent, Skye, your idea is brilliant. How much time do you need?"

Skye proudly raised her head. "I only need 10 minutes!"

Shazo said with satisfaction, "Alright, I guarantee you'll have plenty of time. Tonight, make Kingpin and his building disappear together."

Late at night, in the storage room of Wilson Building.

The stainless steel card that the cleaner, bribed with $1,000, had deliberately left here emitted a faint glow. Then, a black Runes array unfolded, Shazo appeared in the storage room with Skye.

[Forbidden Technique: Flying Thunder God Technique]

Having experienced two Plane Dreamscape, Naruto Shazo finally mastered this forbidden space-time technique.

Currently, only Marvel Shazo can directly use this amazing Ninjutsu. What's amazing is that his mastery of the [Flying Thunder God Technique] surpasses that of Naruto Shazo.

Perhaps the space in the Marvel World is thinner than that in the Naruto World. Despite having the same Talent, Marvel Shazo is able to travel through space with Skye.

Skye appeared in the storage room, her mouth agape in surprise.

No matter how much confidence she had in Shazo, she never imagined that the method he promised to use to perfectly bypass the surveillance of various forces was actually spatial travel.

Skye was pleasantly surprised but also a little disappointed; her carefully planned infiltration route had come to nothing.

Shazo guessed what the girl was thinking and tried to divert her attention, saying, "Skye, let's begin."

Skye licked her lips, placed her hand on the wall of the storage room, took a deep breath, generated vibrations from the cells of her body, and then transmitted the vibrational waves outwards.

Using the echoes generated by the vibrations, the girl began to investigate the resonant frequencies of each floor of the building.

Skyscraper are designed with resonance and destructive potential in mind from the outset, so they are often designed with structural elements to mitigate resonance.

However, resonant frequencies that can damage the building still exist on different floors.

After five minutes of sensing and calculation, Skye completely grasped the resonant frequency of the 33-story building.

Skye opened her eyes and, through the resonance of skeletal muscles and bones, amplified the output energy of the Quake, guiding each floor of the Wilson Building to resonate.

After shaking each floor of the building, she began to adjust the resonant frequencies of all floors according to the greatest common divisor, causing the entire building to shake noticeably.

The shaking, as if caused by an earthquake, startled Kingpin, and also Daredevil, who was lurking in the ventilation ducts.

The Misty Knight and Elektra.

Several months ago, Elektra unfortunately fell into Kingpin's hands and suffered torture and humiliation.

Therefore, after escaping Kingpin's clutches, Elektra had been plotting Kingpin, and unfortunately chose today to infiltrate Wilson Building with her boyfriend and the Misty Knight.

At that moment, Elektra's wild instincts sensed danger, her raging anger was suddenly extinguished, and she involuntarily felt the urge to retreat.

She grabbed her boyfriend in front of her and anxiously urged, "Matt, I have a bad feeling. It seems like a terrible danger is about to erupt. We need to retreat immediately."

Daredevil has extremely keen senses, but when faced with such a large-scale shock affecting the entire environment, he finds himself unable to discern the situation.

He couldn't sense the danger, but his trust in his girlfriend made him accept her advice. "Okay, let's retreat!"

The one-armed Misty Knight trusted Daredevil implicitly, and upon hearing Matt's words, he turned and retreated without hesitation.

Just then, Kingpin suddenly smashed through the concrete ceiling, broke the ventilation duct, and threw the three police officers to the ground.

He sneered, "How did three poor little Nezumi end up in the trap I used to catch a lion?"

"You damned Nezumi, I won't allow you to ruin my hunt!"

Kingpin brandished his cane, aiming a powerful blow at the one-armed Misty Knight, but Daredevil blocked it with his own cane.

But Kingpin's enormous body concealed Superman strength, which Daredevil lacked to block, forcing him to roll backward to dissipate the immense force.

Kingpin pressed his advantage, advancing relentlessly as he chased Daredevil while simultaneously attacking Elektra with his cane. At the same time, he drew a sword hidden within his cane and hurled it as a projectile at the staggering Misty Knight.

Elektra was struck on the shoulder by Kingpin's cane and fell to the ground with a scream.

The Misty Knight twisted his body, but he couldn't dodge the sword in his staff. It pierced his abdomen, rendering him unable to move.

In just one exchange, Kingpin displayed overwhelming power, routing the three street the Superstar.

Kingpin launched another fierce attack on Elektra, overpowering her with brute force and strong defense. He grabbed her and nearly tore off the Superstar's face, but also removed her mask.

Seeing Elektra's face, Kingpin laughed triumphantly, "So it's you, my charming little chick."

"How amusing, you actually dare to come back to me. Are you missing the pleasure of lying down and enjoying yourself?"

His words enraged Elektra, who, disregarding her own pain and fear of danger, launched a frenzied attack on Kingpin.

Daredevil, having dodged Kingpin, leaped up and, together with Elektra, launched a fierce pincer attack.

He fully utilized his agility and speed to avoid a direct contest of strength with Kingpin, and for a time Kingpin and put on the defensive.

Seeing the situation turn around, the Misty Knight, ignoring their wounded abdomen, gritted their teeth and charged forward to attack Kingpin.

For a time, Kingpin, could only parry and take hits, appearing utterly disheveled.

It seemed as if they could be defeated at any moment.
