The summit of the Hollywood Hills.
Jason sat on the grass, bored out of his mind, staring blankly at the distant blue sky and white clouds.
Not far away, Pepper, the star of this nationwide broadcast, was squatting on the ground, her hands clamped over her face, completely silent.
"Sigh..."
Jason glanced at her and let out a heavy sigh.
He hadn’t set the punishnt for being late just so he could get an eyeful. It was purely to make Tony hurry the fuck up, ignite his rage, and make him lose his cool. That way, Jason would have the upper hand in the fight to co.
But Jason fucking never expected... he’d been waiting for over ten minutes, and there wasn’t even a shadow of Tony.
Jason couldn’t help but wonder if Obadiah’s intel was just plain wrong.
Tony was a notorious playboy, a total man-whore. The won he’d fucked had way better bodies than Pepper, prettier faces, and completely eclipsed her in terms of class and education.
In contrast, Pepper was just an ordinary, over-the-hill woman. Would Tony really risk his life for her?
In fact, it wasn’t just Jason who was in agony waiting. The audience glued to their screens was just as tortured.
They’d already used up all the tissues in their laps. The show on screen had beco completely boring.
The only thing that could get them hard again now was the world-shocking battle between Jason and Tony, superpower versus black-box tech.
But who the fuck would have thought, Tony would drop the ball at the critical mont. The audience’s excitent and anticipation plumted to rock bottom, and they finally started closing the live feed.
"Stop watching, Tony’s not coming."
Plenty of people were thinking this. The current viewership had already plumted by a third from its peak.
If Tony didn’t show up soon, all the viewers would probably be gone.

A few kiloters away from the Hollywood Hills, a red-and-gold Iron Man suit hovered motionless in the air.
It turned out Tony had arrived long ago and was hiding in the distance, scouting the enemy.
Since he knew it was a trap set by Jason, Tony had to be extra fucking careful. Love was great and all, but life was more important.
"JARVIS, activate thermal imaging."
"Thermal imaging activated."
The screen in front of Tony dimd, and the world turned black and white. He turned his head and saw a flock of small red birds flying nearby.
"JARVIS, zoom in."
"Yes, sir."
As the view slowly zood in, Tony gradually got a clear look at the summit.
"Two humanoid red dots on the summit. The one squatting should be Pepper, the other one lying down... must be Jason. Wait, there’s another person! Strange, why is this person’s body temperature so low?"
Tony frowned in confusion, then slowly scanned the surroundings.
"One, two, three..."
Under the thermal scan, the positions of all the accomplices lying in ambush were exposed.
"Jason brought six people in total. Looks like they’re all the Joker’s elite. In other words, they’re all super-powered."
Thinking of this, Tony’s mood sank to rock bottom.
He thought Jason wanted a one-on-one, or at worst, would pull so dirty tricks. He never thought Jason would be even more shaless than he imagined, actually bringing his whole super-powered team to jump him.
Tony closed his eyes for a mont, racking his brain for a strategy.
A mont later, he opened his eyes, a small smile playing on his lips, and accelerated toward the Hollywood Hills.

When Tony was less than a kiloter from the summit, David, who was lying in ambush at a high point, spotted him through his binoculars.
David imdiately notified Jason: "Boss, Iron Man is here."
Hearing the voice in his earpiece, Jason stood up, brushed off his ass, and peered into the distance.
A black dot was flying toward them at high speed.
"Honey, be careful," Harley’s voice ca through the earpiece.
"Don’t worry," Jason began to gather his energy, then yelled at Pepper, "Hey! Your old man is here!"
Pepper looked up, her eyes, usually pretty, were bloodshot with rage.
Jason had assud Tony would launch a surprise attack to rescue Pepper.
But unexpectedly, when he was 100 ters away, he started to decelerate, finally hovering 20 ters from the summit.
Iron Man appeared! The audience watching their computers exploded.
He’s here, he’s here, he’s finally here!
In just a few seconds, the viewership numbers began to skyrocket.
Tony flipped open his faceplate and looked at Pepper, his voice soft. "Pepper! I’m sorry to keep you waiting. I’m here to save you now!"
"Tony..." At his words, Pepper’s eyes turned red, and she covered her mouth, unable to stop sobbing.
This felt just like a cheesy movie scene where the heroine is kidnapped by the villain, the hero descends from the sky to save her, and then gets the girl.
As the villain, Jason felt offended.
I’m the fucking star of this show, okay? You two are just going to ignore ?
He imdiately sniped, "Tony! You sure took your sweet ti. A few more minutes, and this global broadcast would have turned into an episode of Naked and Afraid."
Tony turned his head to face Jason, the rage in his eyes almost erupting.
"Jason! What kind of fucking man are you! Pull this shit on ! Don’t take it out on a woman!"
Jason shook his head. "Before you say that, don’t forget, I’m a supervillain. The world’s number one supervillain. Don’t pin your moral code on . Besides, when it cos to killing, Stark Industries is way more of an expert than I am."
Getting shut down like that, Tony’s anger flared even hotter. For an arms dealer, the greatest insult was having his weapons and the killing they did thrown in his face.
Normally, Tony would have engaged in a verbal spar for 300 rounds, but today was different. He had to swallow the retort.
Jason continued, "Besides, this is all your fault, isn’t it? If you’d just shown up ten minutes earlier, Pepper wouldn’t have had to suffer this humiliation."
"Hmph. My mistake." Tony sneered, his iron fists clenching so hard they audibly creaked. "Trying to talk morality with a piece of shit like you is a waste of ti. Only pain and blood will teach you a lesson."
Hearing this, Jason mocked him disdainfully. "Pain and blood? Don’t forget, you didn’t beat last ti."
Tony snapped his faceplate shut. "Don’t worry. I’ll definitely beat you today."
Jason also took a fighting stance and nodded. "You’re right. And it’s going to be fast!"
BOOM!!!!
The words had barely left his mouth when a deafening roar erupted. The audience watching the live feed almost pissed themselves.
The energy Jason had been building up in his feet exploded instantly. The massive shockwave left a deep crater, two or three ters wide, on the Hollywood summit!
Jason himself was propelled by this imnse force, shooting toward Tony at high speed.
VMMMMM!!!
Tony didn’t dodge. The sound of his repulsors suddenly intensified.
PSHHTT!!!
The arc reactor in his chest fired an electromagnetic pulse beam half a ter wide, much larger than the one from a few days ago.
This was the result of Tony’s work: an improved arc reactor with greater power output, designed to overwhelm Jason’s energy absorption.
The pulse beam shot out, hit Jason, and was instantly and perfectly absorbed by him.
At the sa ti, Jason’s depleted energy reserves were refilled, like the tide rushing back in.
Jason had anticipated Tony’s improvent. Just as his energy reserves neared their peak, a cunning, triumphant smile spread across his face.
