章 343: Chapter: 343
As Tony said, T'Challa shares the same experiences as him and should be able to understand how he feels at this moment.
When facing one's own enemy right in front of them, of course, they would want to strike them down quickly.
However, T'Challa surprised Tony with an unexpected response. Shaking his head, he stepped forward to where Bucky stood.
"Sorry, Tony, I might have to disappoint you. I understand the feelings you're experiencing right now, because, as you mentioned, everything I am going through is just like yours.
But seeing the internal conflicts and divisions within the Avengers today, my perspective has changed. This is exactly what the Green Goblin desires – a fractured, self-destructive state.
He knows he can't kill you all. You've defeated enemies much stronger than him countless times before. That's why he orchestrated this series of events, to lead you into civil war.
Hatred has consumed you, Tony. If you continue like this, not only will you fall into the Green Goblin's trap, but you will also undermine the unity and stability of the entire team. I cannot stand by and watch you succumb like this.
You're right, I, too, have suffered from the loss of loved ones and pursued revenge at all costs, just like you. But now I see clearly; I cannot allow myself to lose control like this.
Justice will prevail in the end, but today I cannot stand by and watch you kill Barnes. Please stop this, Tony!"
"That's something you can tell to those who are already dead. Since you've decided to stand in my way, don't blame me for not showing mercy."
"Rhodey, keep Sam busy. I'll handle the other two."
After saying this, Tony charged directly at T'Challa and Bucky, while the weapons mounted on his ironman armor continued to fire at Bucky.
Tony's shots were precise, but unfortunately, T'Challa intercepted all the firepower with ease. Wearing the Black Panther vibranium suit, he was completely unfazed by these attacks.
Seeing that his attacks were ineffective, Tony immediately changed his strategy. He aimed a portion of the firepower at T'Challa, diverting his attention, while simultaneously targeting Bucky with deadly force.
Tony's tactic proved successful. T'Challa, distracted by the feint attack, momentarily lost focus and was unable to continue blocking the firepower directed at Bucky.
However, Bucky wasn't about to be captured easily. Anticipating Tony's assault, he instinctively tried to evade. Drawing on years of accumulated experience, Bucky dodged Tony's initial attacks.
However, due to the intense firepower, he had no choice but to use his own metal arm to block some unavoidable attacks.
However, these projectiles weren't harmless even if blocked; upon impact, they immediately triggered explosions. Bucky was hit by the shockwave from one of these explosions and was sent crashing to the ground.
"Bucky!" Captain looked at Bucky being hit by Tony and felt a pang of worry, but he could only watch helplessly as he was constrained by the energy shield and unable to do anything.
Now, all he could do was focus on attacking the energy shield, accelerating its energy consumption to break free faster. Only this way could he stop the ongoing battle.
On the other side, Scarlet Witch, Wanda, though not understanding how the energy shield worked, was actively attempting to break the barrier in front of her. She concentrated her telekinetic powers, launching attacks repeatedly.
...
T'Challa saw Bucky get hit by Tony because of his distraction, realizing he couldn't let Tony continue remote attacks from a distance. Otherwise, they would be at a disadvantage over time.
Understanding the current situation, Black Panther swiftly closed the distance between him and Tony. He aimed to bring the battle into his favor by engaging in close combat where he held the advantage. Only this way could he have a chance to thwart Tony's revenge plan.
Tony also recognized that T'Challa's suit had the advantage of kinetic energy absorption, and T'Challa was highly skilled in combat. If T'Challa got close, Tony would likely be entangled and wouldn't be able to spare attention for Bucky.
So, when Tony saw T'Challa charging towards him, he decisively abandoned his further actions against Bucky. Instead, he directed all his firepower at T'Challa, attempting to create distance and buy time.
However, having learned from their previous encounter, T'Challa was resolute this time. He forcefully suppressed his instinctual urge to dodge. And by relying on the properties of the vibranium suit, he charged forward without concern for Tony's intense barrage.
Boom—Boom—Boom!
After a series of explosions and resulting flames and smoke, a black figure suddenly burst forth – it was none other than Black Panther, T'Challa. Caught off guard, Tony was subjected to a flurry of rapid strikes.
Despite his suit's robust shock absorption and cushioning systems, Tony still felt a momentary dizziness and his gaze briefly lost focus.
"Sir, engaging him in hand-to-hand combat without a weapon won't give you a winning chance. T'Challa's fighting skills and experience far surpass yours. Would you like me to analyze his combat patterns?"
Seeing his master taking a beating, J.A.R.V.I.S couldn't bear to watch and quickly spoke up to offer Tony advice.
"Enough talk, do you even need to ask? Quickly analyze his combat patterns!" Tony shook his slightly dizzy head, forcing himself to regain clarity.
"Understood, sir. Scanning now—"
"Faster!"
The combat analysis and counterattack system on his armor was inspired by Mark's previous invention, the miraculous suit. However, the miraculous suit's combat assist system called forth pre-set battle models to respond to attacks or initiate offensive maneuvers.
Tony's system, on the other hand, collected and analyzed data on the opponent's actions, calculated the highest success rate based on the analysis, and then executed the plan.
The advantage of this mode was that it always adopted the most prudent approach for combat, but the downside was that it required a higher computational capacity and processing efficiency.
However, for J.A.R.V.I.S, who had the Mind Stone as a data carrier and processing center, these challenges were clearly not issues.
The only unresolved problem was that, no matter how rapid the analysis and computation were, time was still needed. So—
Thud! Thud! Thud!
While J.A.R.V.I.S was in the process of scanning and analyzing T'Challa's combat patterns, T'Challa continued his relentless assault on Tony. Blow after blow landed on Tony's armor, subjecting him to an unrelenting barrage.
If not for the meticulous upgrades and reinforcement of armor, T'Challa might have pulled Tony out of his armor by now. Even so, the display inside the helmet indicated that the suit had incurred significant damage – 15% to be exact, a highly critical level.
If he didn't stop T'Challa's onslaught, even if he had a chance to face Bucky one-on-one, his severely damaged armor would prevent him from launching an effective attack.
Finally, just as Tony began to feel anxious, a moment of salvation arrived, bringing him good news: "Combat pattern analysis complete, countermeasures ready!"
Clang!
Simultaneously with J.A.R.V.I.S's announcement, Tony's right hand swiftly rose and securely caught the fist coming down towards his face from T'Challa.
"Now it's my turn!" Beneath the Iron Man's helmet, Tony gritted his teeth as he uttered these words. He then reversed the roles between them and launched a counterattack against T'Challa's earlier assault.
Under the automatic combat assistance, T'Challa, despite his training in combat since childhood, was equally defenseless. He could only silently endure Tony's fists raining down in an outpour of anger.
However, unlike Tony, T'Challa, clad in the vibranium suit, had no chance to retaliate, but he also suffered no harm. Every attack Tony unleashed with all his might was perfectly absorbed by the vibranium.
So, although he appeared severely battered, he hadn't sustained any injuries.
For Tony, this was already enough. As long as he could disrupt T'Challa's continuous assaults, his objective would be achieved.
Tony's frenzied counterattack against T'Challa might seem driven by anger, but he was actually calmer than ever before.
Just as Tony swung a final uppercut to knock Black Panther to the ground and immediately launched a disc at him – the same energy shield used earlier to restrain Captain and Scarlet Witch.
Evidently, Tony felt T'Challa was a formidable adversary and didn't want to waste any more time on this confrontation. He seized the opportunity to immobilize T'Challa.
At this moment, Captain, Scarlet Witch, and T'Challa were all trapped by Tony's energy shield. Falcon was held back by War Machine, unable to provide assistance, and Bucky, hit by Tony's firepower and lying unconscious on the ground, had no one left to stop Tony from carrying out his revenge.
Watching Tony closing in step by step towards the fallen Bucky, Captain's anxiety had reached its peak.
Within the energy shield, Captain had turned into a blur. Utilizing the Speed of the Flash's suit, he continuously executed rapid zigzag movements to subject the shield to a high-frequency assault.
Captain had created a visual afterimage effect, where his rapidly moving figure left a fleeting image in human perception.
As Tony was almost upon Bucky, targeting his head with the palm cannon from just a step away, Captain finally managed to deplete the energy shield's power at the last moment.
Breaking free from the restraint, he exerted a move resembling the "One For All: Full Cowling 100%" from My Hero Academia, and stopped Tony's attempt to release the palm cannon attack on Bucky.
Unfortunately, Captain wasn't All Might, and apart from having a similar ability to One For All, he lacked All Might's invulnerable physique. Furthermore, his mastery of "One For All: Full Cowling 100%" wasn't as profound, so in the end, he couldn't sustain the technique for a full seven days and nights like in the series.
Tony managed to break free from Captain's grip. The Captain stood between him and Bucky, looking at Tony in torment and said, "He's my friend…"
Tony responded, "So am I."
After saying this, Tony directly unleashed the palm cannon he hadn't had the chance to use before, aiming it at the unconscious Bucky on the ground.
Clang! Captain shielded Bucky from the fatal blow with his shield. "It's not his intention. His mind is controlled by Hydra!"
"Get out of the way!" Tony ignored Captain's explanation and continued his attempt to attack Bucky, trying to bypass Captain.
"Everything you're doing now won't change what's already happened!" Captain once again stood before Tony.
"I don't care! All I know is he killed my parents." Seeing Captain block him once more, Tony no longer held back and launched an attack against him.
However, the Flash's suit on Captain was personally designed by Mark, and combined with his vast combat experience, Tony was no match for him.
Forced to do so, Tony activated the combat analysis mode again, allowing the suit's assist system to take control of the battle.
"Countermeasures ready." After enduring another beating, when the suit's damage had reached thirty percent, Jarvis's analysis finally yielded results.
"Let's take him down together!"
With the assistance of the system, the situation between Tony and Captain reversed once again, just like when he dealt with Black Panther. Captain was entirely at a disadvantage, unable to counter at all.
The superhuman speed evasion and attacks seemed non-existent to Tony, who predicted and countered every move with full force.
However, even in this state, Captain didn't give up. He continued to stand his ground between Tony and Bucky, despite his heavily battered body.
"Stop, Captain. This is my final warning!"
Watching the weakened Captain, Tony halted his attacks and spoke to him.
Struggling to rise from the ground, Captain, as if he hadn't heard Tony's warning, assumed a combat-ready stance and said, "I can do this all day—"
"You're putting me in a difficult position, Captain. But today, no matter who it is, nobody can stop me from dealing with this murderer and avenging my parents!"
Bang!
Before he could finish speaking, Tony was lifted off the ground by a powerful force, thrown several dozen meters away.
As it turns out, while Tony and Captain were at an impasse, Scarlet Witch, who had been attempting to disrupt the energy shield, had finally managed to break free from the restraint.
The first thing she did upon regaining her freedom was to throw Tony and Rhodey, who had been restraining her, away together, providing assistance to her teammates while also giving them a small taste of revenge. So, it's best not to mess with women, no matter who it is.
"Captain, we need to hurry. On Green Goblin's side..." After carrying out her minor retaliation, Scarlet Witch approached the weakened Captain, supporting him and reminding him.
"Understood. Sam, go deactivate the energy shield on T'Challa. We'll take Bucky and continue toward the destination."
"Wait!" Just as the Captain and his team were about to get on the vehicle and leave, Tony, who was immobilized by Scarlet Witch's telekinesis, spoke up.
"That shield doesn't belong to you. You're not worthy! It was made by my father's hands!"
Clang!
Captain didn't argue. He casually tossed the shield beside Tony. "This suit was customized for me by Mark, but right now, Green Goblin is orchestrating a dangerous plan. I need this power to stop him.
So, I'll return the suit to Mark after the battle is over...."
With that, Captain closed the car door and drove away.
