Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 128: Tony’s Misbehavior

2/5 weekly chapter, enjoy.

 “Haha, maybe you think you are generous, but in fact, but the truth is I don’t need that thing in your hand.”

Tony looked at Natasha, who had a serious face, and couldn’t help laughing. 

“We are not kidding you, Stark.” 

Fury’s face was stony. 

The current event’s development was completely different from what he expected. 

In his mind, Tony should have jumped down very excitedly and taken the lithium dioxide syringe. 

However, he was still sitting on the donut model so leisurely that Fury couldn’t understand what’s happening anymore. 

Could it be that Tony has given up the treatment? 

“Ah, by the way, does the dioxide syringe you are talking about look like this?” 

Tony opened a hidden box that was in the abdomen of his battlesuit, and took out a syringe that was very similar to the one Natasha was holding. 

The only difference between both is that the industrial level of the syringe in Tony’s hands was obviously a notch higher and had more liquid in it… 

“How did you get lithium dioxide? Stark Industries should not have the technology to make this drug.”

Seeing Tony taking out the secret medicine specially prepared by SHIELD, Fury was stunned. 

Neither Stark Industries nor any other organization in the world can independently develop lithium dioxide. 

This is clearly S.H.I.E.L.D.’s unique technology! 

At this moment, Fury’s brain was racing. 

Did someone from S.H.I.E.L.D. leak this technology? 

Impossible! Fury is very confident in his own agent hierarchy: every agent has a corresponding supervisor. 

Especially scientific researchers, they are the most important. Normally, S.H.I.E.L.D. scientists have no absolute personal freedom; they can not walk out of the S.H.I.E.L.D. research facility for life.

Fury tried to think about anything else, besides leaking technology from S.H.I.E.L.D., but couldn’t find any other way to do it. 

Perhaps Tony hacked into the S.H.I.E.L.D. database! 

With Jarvis, there is no place in the world where Tony can’t hack into. As long as there is a network, no one can hide from Tony. 

The difference only lies in whether he is willing to invest that much time to do so.

In fact, this is how the lithium dioxide in Batman’s hands came into existence… 

“If I tell you that this was given to me by someone else, would you believe it?” 

Tony’s face was very nonchalant. 

Fury naturally did not believe what he said, but the lithium dioxide has now fallen into Tony’s hands, he can only pretend that this did not happen.

Fortunately, S.H.I.E.L.D. doesn’t keep special items in their network’s database, but sealed with paper documents.

Therefore, Fury’s new element is not likely to be leaked in advance. 

“Well, it seems that you have now escaped from the claws of life and death.” 

“But what I must remind you is that lithium dioxide can only inhibit the spread of palladium poisoning, rather than eradicate it, so you still need our assistance to save your life.” 

After saying this, Fury felt that his lips began to dry. 

Not only that, but he also felt that the trench coat he was wearing had become hotter, to a degree where he felt a burning sensation on his skin. 

Although Fury kept his cool on the surface, in fact, his back has long been soaked with sweat, which made him feel extreme discomfort. 

Standing beside him Natasha suddenly noticed a bad smell. To that, she immediately frowned, and then started searching around.

She wanted to know who threw dead fish here and vowed she would give him a good taste of it.

Until… Natasha followed the smell and looked at Fury… 

She immediately retreated three meters away silently from her boss without any notice, and the stench finally dissipated. 

Tony counted all these years, where his family had been generous to Fury, and decided that it was time to get his father’s relics back. 

He jumped off the giant donut model and landed in front of Fury. 

“Hmph, you finally give in? I knew Tony Stark would not give up his life.” 

The joy of victory emerged in Fury’s heart. 

“Oh, man! What’s this smell?” 

As soon as Tony landed, he smelled the stench that Natasha had just endured. 

He didn’t try to save Fury’s honor, he immediately covered his mouth and nose in disgust. 

But soon he discovered that this was not very efficient, so he instantly put on his helmet and turned on the air purifier. 

“Phew, finally, came alive!” 

“Although it is not very polite to wear a helmet and talk to people, but respected Mr. Fury, can you take a shower before meeting people?” 

Tony kindly suggested to Fury. 

“What do you mean by that?” 

Fury didn’t understand for a moment what Tony was trying to say? 

“Oh my God, didn’t you notice your intense body odor?” 

Tony said incredulously. 

“If I hadn’t designed a purifying circulation system for the air in my battlesuit, I probably would have died of your smell before I die of palladium poisoning.”

Fury had a black line on his face, he took a step towards Tony, and Tony reflexively took two steps back. 

Although he can no longer smell any body odor, the short second just now has left an indelible shadow on Tony. 

Fury looked at Tony’s movements with shock, and remained speechless for a long time… 

“Let’s find a store with air conditioning on and sit down, shall we?” 

Finally, Tony broke the dead silence on the scene. 

After a while, Fury walked into the fast-food restaurant he had booked in sweat. 

The air conditioner inside was blowing loudly, and all that heat disappeared instantly. 

Fury had a feeling of rejuvenation. 

“You just said that you have a cure for palladium poisoning. Wouldn’t you want me to synthesize a new element to replace palladium?” 

Tony was not planning to let Fury continue to enjoy the air conditioning. 

He continued bullying Fury straight away.

“Obviously, apart from this one plan, there is no other way to cure your palladium poisoning.” 

Fury followed along instantly, and his previous embarrassment was completely forgotten. 

“In your current state, even if you are willing to give up the use of palladium, it will only delay the symptoms of palladium poisoning. Sooner or later, you will go to hell.” 

“Oh, really? But I think I should pay a visit to God first.” 

Tony still maintained his foolish act, and Fury’s insides burst into fire. 

He knew how bad Tony Stark’s character was, but never expected that Tony could be so rude, even in life-and-death matters. 

The two men stared at each other across the table, and there were faint sparks flashing in the air.

The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
