Infinite Devil Fruit - Chapter 16
Chapter 16: What Happened?
Qin Xiao was helpless.
The idea of wretched development in Kamar Taj is not working.
But just to see for yourself what happened in New York.
Qin Xiao simply said goodbye to Gu Yi and Daniel, and then directly chose to leave.
In the car, Qin Xiao dialed Frank’s phone.
“Qin? Are you back in New York?”
As soon as the phone was connected, Frank’s voice came from the other side.
His voice is very calm.
This made Qin Xiao breathe a sigh of relief.
“I just saw the news, what happened?
According to the plan, even if you want to do it, you will find a time when there is plenty of reason.
Normally, you should proper guard Tony.
How could you considered as an assassin?
And, how come the military and the directors of Stark Industries are involved?”
One question came out of Qin Xiao’s mouth every month.
He wants to know what happened next to Tony during this time.
“Qin, I was cheated on this matter!”
After Frank said these words, Qin Xiao seemed to hear the sound of gritted teeth.
“You got fucked? What happened, tell me in detail?”
Qin Xiao was not in a hurry at this time.
Frank has the Marsh fruit ability.
As long as he is not attacked by special means, it is not life threatening.
Once Frank was allowed to escape, he was able to live well with his own means.
Even in a sense, Punisher who doesn’t protect Tony is the most terrifying.
Those guys don’t know what kind of beast was released.
“This call may have been monitored. I will go to safe house 3.”
“Understood.”
After Qin Xiao finished speaking, he hung up the phone.
After that, he stored the phone in his “body”.
This prevents the phone from being tracked.
Safe House No. 3.
Frank began to tell Qin Xiao about the past few weeks.
The stock price of Stark Industries dropped by more than 55 points the day after Tony announced the closure of the weapons department!
Even numerous TV programs are constantly criticizing Tony’s waywardness.
Tony, however, didn’t get out of his villa.
Not only the media can’t see him.
Even the members of the board of directors can’t see him!
Obadiah called Tony many times.
But every time Tony was prevarication.
Two days ago, Obadiah came to Tony’s villa again.
“Tony, the company needs new results to attract attention.”
Obadiah didn’t make any excuses this time.
“What’s the meaning?”
Tony looked at each other alertly.
“The Ark Reactor in your chest!”
Obadiah pointed directly at Tony’s chest.
Tony’s eyes changed.
“How did you know?”
Because of Qin Xiao’s reminder, he did not tell Obadiah about the Ark Reactor this time.
But now the other party directly pointed out the Ark reactor on his chest.
“Tony, whether it’s Pepper or Colonel Rhodes, we have a way to get them to speak.”
A lot of people came in from outside.
The board of directors, the military…
Tony was speechless.
During this time, he re-made a new Ark reactor.
With the help of Pepper, the old one was replaced.
The old reactor was packed by Pepper and placed in Tony’s underground laboratory.
Fortunately, he knew that this matter could not be kept for long.
They know, then they know.
Obadiah looked at Tony with a cold expression.
“Tony, a humanoid vehicle has been fighting terrorists all over the world during the recent period.
Even shot down a military aircraft.
Do you really think no one knows about these things?
Now the military needs an explanation from us.”
At this time, he became more and more enthusiastic about the Ark Reactor.
A weapon that can defeat military aircraft.
This is the most powerful weapon.
He spent a lot of time studying the old armor that Tony had left at the base over there.
A more powerful armor has been formed.
What is missing now is a powerful source of power.
This power source is the reduced size Ark reactor.
His technical team has broken through other technologies.
This alone cannot be done.
Today, this Ark reactor is bound to win.
So this time he even summoned some of the military and board members who were close to him.
Now, it has directly formed a scene of forced palace.
“Well, you will know if you know it.
But I will keep this thing for myself, and I will not disclose the technology of this.
After I perfect it, I will directly build the clean energy that belongs to Stark.
You can use this to divert the media’s attention.
As for the military, Colonel Rhodes has already given an explanation.
What else do you need to explain?”
Tony directly rejected Obadiah.
But he also gave a method to transfer the media.
Up to this point, Tony had not made up his mind to act on Obadiah.
Mark 3 battle armor has been successfully developed during this time.
He even went to the area where the terrorists walked to “troubleshoot justice”.
Incidentally, it attracted the attention of the military.
During the battle, an aircraft was destroyed.
Of course, this incident was perfunctory by the military using exercises as an excuse.
Obviously, the real situation behind it has not escaped Obadiah’s investigation.
Today, it is clear that Obadiah is here to force him.
What Tony didn’t expect most was that the military would actually get together with Obadiah.
Obviously, Colonel Rhodes has already spoken on behalf of the military.
It seems that a struggle for power has begun within the military.
Tony understood this in an instant.
At this time, Obadiah spoke again.
“Since you have closed the weapons research and development department, the Ark reactor in your chest will become the company’s assest.
For company’s success, we need to research and analyze it.”
Obadiah urged Tony to hand over the technology of the Ark reactor.
This technology is from Stark Industries!
The stock price of Stark Industries is still shrinking.
Until the new technology is injected, they have nothing to do.
Moreover, someone has been targeting Stark Industries.
Stark Industries serves as a partner in the military.
I don’t know how many arms dealers have been robbed of business.
For example, Hanmer Industries.
For example, the Osborne Group.
Now Stark voluntarily gave up this advantage.
Naturally, other companies can’t wait to kill Stark Group directly.
They shot from behind.
The stock of Stark Industries plunged another dozen points.
Stark Industries is now worth only one or two percent of what it was at its peak.
