Marvel: Spider-Man? No, I'm Superman!

Peter was fairly satisfied with the nanosuit, but felt that its appearance needed some modifications.

"No problem, it just makes me seem more 'low-key', I'm good at that, I've always been very low-key."

While the others were pondering what that multicolored black was all about, Tony, who had returned to the lab from outside, immediately agreed to Peter's suggestion.

……

A few hours later, a figure flew rapidly across the night sky.

Inside Tony Stark's luxurious villa.

A figure suddenly appeared on the sofa.

"Officer... welcome home!"

Upon seeing the familiar figure suddenly appear in the villa and frantically searching for a trash can, Jarvis immediately stopped his warning. Then, all the lights in the villa gradually came on to welcome its owner back.

"Ahem, Jarvis, long time no see!"

After rinsing his mouth with the expensive red wine from the freezer, Tony slumped onto the sofa and lazily greeted Jarvis.

"Sir, should I notify the others?"

Jarvis's voice continued, seeking Tony's opinion.

"Never mind, it's too late today. Let them get some rest first, and we'll notify them tomorrow morning."

Tony thought for a moment and then declined.

"Yes sir."

With Jarvis's confirmation, the villa fell silent once again.

"It was truly an unforgettable experience."

Staring at the familiar ceiling, Tony kept replaying the unusual process of his kidnapping in his mind.

"Superman... nanotech suit..."

Muttering to himself, Tony suddenly sat up from the sofa.

"Jarvis..."

"Sir, we are at your service at any time."

"Create a new research project, and name it—Anti..."

"Ahem, let's call it Nano Armor MK1."

Instantly suppressing the strange urge to name it, Tony slowly uttered a name that was fairly normal.

"By the way, help me purchase and search for some experimental facilities and special materials around the world..."

"Mr. Mingbai, the new project has been successfully launched, and orders for materials and experimental equipment have been placed and are being expedited for delivery..."

"Sir, is there anything else you need?"

As Jarvis spoke, Tony slowly fell into deep thought.

After a long while, Tony spoke again: "Jarvis, get me all the recent information about Superman."

"Finally, help me find all the Superman comics..."

"Sir, didn't you say before that you were only three years old..."

"Ahem, Jarvis, I think you should learn how to speak with high emotional intelligence so as not to embarrass your boss."

Tony, who couldn't escape the "it smells so good" phenomenon, said that as long as he didn't feel embarrassed, it was others who felt embarrassed.

"Yes, sir, I'm trying..."

"Nanotechnology...you really have given me a promising direction for my future!"

Thinking about the nanosuit he had experienced in the lab today, a look of fascination appeared on Tony's face.

……

Chapter 49: Is Magic Plus Armor a Potential Solution?

"A hero of all mankind? A god among men? And an alien being, a guy who calls himself the god of thunder..."

As Tony learns more about the enormous changes that have occurred in the world during the month or so that he has been kidnapped.

Even though I was somewhat prepared, I was still incredibly shocked.

"Haha, how ridiculous!"

"That despicable guy has been portrayed as a human hero. Are those politicians out of their minds?"

What Tony found most unbelievable was that the guy who kidnapped him was being touted by the government and the media as a hero who saved all of humanity.

"Sir, according to information found online, Superman's popularity has firmly occupied the top spot on the popularity charts in all countries since his appearance, surpassing countless Hollywood stars..."

"Superman's reputation is also positive, with a approval rating of over 99.9999... The vast majority of people admit that the existence of Superman has made their lives better."

"Even more extreme, some believe that as long as Superman doesn't destroy the Earth, he can be considered a hero of humanity, citing the classic comic book incident of Injustice Superman..."

"That's enough, I don't want to hear any more of this guy's heroic deeds."

Tony, with a serious expression, interrupted Jarvis as he gathered information.

"I just want to know, what kind of weakness does this guy have in the comics?"

Although Superman only kidnapped him and made him do hard labor, he did not actually harm him.

But now, Tony must prepare to face Superman again.

Nanosuits are his future research focus.

However, relying solely on ordinary nanotech armor is naturally insufficient to fight against the powerful Superman.

Therefore, studying Superman's weaknesses is an essential process.

"Sir, Superman's weaknesses are described in the comics, including but not limited to Kryptonite, the Red Sun, mind control, magic, and his inherent goodness..."

"Kryptonite? It's extremely difficult to find on Earth, and it's not even certain if it exists."

"A red sun? That can be simulated, but I don't know if it will actually work."

"Mind manipulation? Forget it, let's rule that out."

"As for inner kindness, does that guy even have it?"

Tony was skeptical.

"Hmm, and magic, but does magic really exist in this world?"

Before being kidnapped, Tony would have scoffed at the existence of magic, but now, he desperately longs for it to truly exist.

"Jarvis, conduct a detailed global search using 'magic' as the keyword..."

"Magic combined with technological armor, that seems like a promising idea."

"I'll test it out. If magic truly exists, then the combination of magic and nanotech armor can truly put us at odds with that guy..."

"Sir, it's necessary to remind you that Mr. Superman has incredibly powerful hearing. Everything you're doing now might..."

"Fuck, Jarvis, why didn't you warn me sooner!"

Upon hearing this, Tony hurriedly looked out the window, and only breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that no familiar figure was flying over.

……

"Heh, this guy really is trying to put up an unnecessary resistance."

"However, let him do whatever he wants. In the end, I'll be the one who benefits from it all."

"Magic armor? Sorcerer Supreme Iron Man? Actually, I'm also looking forward to seeing you in armor, with a magic whip in your right hand and a magic shield in your left!"

"Moreover, I'm even more looking forward to taking this thing apart; I wonder if it'll be incredibly satisfying..."

Peter stopped listening to Tony's villa, and a hopeful smile appeared on his lips.

Even a fool could tell that Tony was a restless guy to begin with, and now that he's been kidnapped, it wouldn't be in his nature not to cause some trouble when he gets back.

After all, that's precisely why Tony was able to become Iron Man.

However, Tony's fate in this universe has changed, and it's probably not as simple as just becoming Iron Man.

"Next, we need to continue to improve the battle suit."

"The key lies in the original Ant-Man, Dr. Pym, and his Pym Particles..."

Peter slowly pondered his next plan, with Dr. Pym and his Pym Particles being key to it.

It must be said that some of the advanced technologies in the Marvel Universe have exceeded human comprehension.

The Pym Particles developed by Dr. Pym are one of the most incredible black technologies, even more incredible than nanotechnology.

It can reduce the distance between molecules of matter, thereby shrinking what was originally a huge object to a very small size.

It can even allow people to travel into the quantum realm, which can hardly be described as technology; it is even more fantastical than magic.

"However, Pym Particles are not in a hurry, since they can't escape anyway."

Peter sent Tony back to the villa ahead of time because of the upcoming arrival of Dr. Pym.

After all, Dr. Pym and the Stark family have some unresolved misunderstandings, and it's highly likely that the two will fight if they work together.

Moreover, Tony's technological contributions to the nanosuits have essentially come to an end.

The subsequent research basically no longer required Tony's existence.

Of course, if there really is a place that needs him, we can just bring him back.

"However, before we can deal with Dr. Pym, it seems we need to deal with Dr. Otto first..."

In Peter's mind, the image of Doctor Octopus with four metal tentacles slowly emerged.

……

Meanwhile, at Dr. Otto's home.

Dr. Otto, who had just been released on bail from the police station, returned home dejectedly.

"Dear Otto, are you alright?"
