Chapter 938: Chapter 786: Anbrellaâs Energy_4
CNN: âThe live footage reveals signs of biological experiments at the top of Stark Tower! People are calling for a thorough investigation!â
CBC: âThe laboratory of Anbrella Company has been verified as registered, and the homeless man in the footage was just a past volunteer for drug testing.â
A list of signed names was also attached, all procedures are legitimate and impeccable, conducted entirely correctly.
CBS: âThe robots battling Iron Man were created by Ivan Vanko, who has been in hiding plotting his revenge.â
FOX: âThe accidentally injured civilians should still be Iron Manâs responsibility; it wasnât just some prosthetic limb.â

At the top of Stark Tower, the glass walls had been repaired, and the site was cleaned and disinfected anew.
The atmosphere returned once again to that of a cozy, fresh-looking bar.
As the owner of the place, Tony was watching these reports and couldnât help but chuckle.
Even though he didnât much care about other peopleâs opinions, it was still annoying that, despite having exposed Anbrella Company, the overwhelming media attacks against him persisted.
Today, besides the already squatting trio of Tao Yu, the place also hosted Pepper Potts and Nick Fury.
This time, the egg-like Nick Fury, the Director, didnât make a mysterious appearance; he came openly for a visit, bringing along relics of Tonyâs father, Howard.
Seeing Tony troubled by these reports, he sighed and said,
âThatâs the world for you; if you donât seize the âtruth,â others will.â
It wasnât as if Stark Group lacked the capability; Stark, too, is a colossal corporation.
However, Tony hadnât previously bothered with these issues; Obadiah was in charge, primarily managing through the military-industrial complexâs power.
Now, with Stark Group abandoning its old connections and diving headfirst into the energy sector, the control over public opinion had become quite passive.
âAnbrella has no management responsibility at all?â
âThey do. Anbrella paid off to settle, the management was not pursued but handed over Ivan Vanko instead.â
Nick Fury seemed unsurprised at all, speaking in an even tone.
This was indeed a rare opportunity, but even after concretely hammering the competitorâs laboratory and uncovering decisive evidence, he knew how hard it is to directly bring down the opponent, it was just considered a strike.
Now things seemed just as normal as ever.
âFor Anbrella Company to do this, ordinary people wouldnât find it strange anymore. Just a few days ago, a tycoon who caused losses for Anbrella, died with his family on his yacht, while the others were rescued and his right-hand man also suffered a car accident the same day.â
Nick Fury chuckled, the grand corporate battles are actually so plain and unadorned.
Back then with the huge Purdue Pharma scandal, it ended with just a monetary settlement and no accountable responsibilities; comparing this to just revealing a video of a bio lab that hasnât caused any severe consequences, itâs nothing at all.
âBut donât worry, as long as they donât figure out how you traced the lab, they probably wonât dare to risk again soon. Be glad, your own military power isnât weak.â
After finishing, he pushed out Howardâs relic,
âMaybe, you can find a cure for palladium poisoning from it.â
In fact, with the support from Tao Yu, Tony wasnât in urgent need of a substitute, finding another top-tier surgeon seemed feasible.
Yet Stephen, still lying in the lab, made Tony realize, who knows what might happen secretly with the next doctor.
Aside from trustworthy individuals like the brothers Jack, rather than relying on others, better to rely on oneself!
âWell, given this thing, Iâll temporarily let go of the fact that you planted spies earlier.â
âBesides, I also want to cooperate with you to jointly combat Anbrella, and of course, Mr. Minato Namikaze.â
Initially just a bystander eating melons outside, Minato Namikaze suddenly heard his name mentioned and felt a bit bewildered.
But after glancing at Tao Yu, he nodded.
âIâll follow Mr. Starkâs arrangements.â
âI will deal with Anbrella Company using my own methods, but if you are willing to provide some intelligence sharing, cooperation is not impossible.â
Continuous attacks and the smear campaigns targeted at himself made Tony quite furious with Anbrella.
In fact, Stark Group even had quite a few collaborations with Anbrella Company before, including arms sales.
They even proposed a strategic cooperation of exchanging shares, but Obadiah was still considering it when he was killed by his own deeds.
But after turning hostile, he didnât expect their tactics to be so dirty!
Tony just wants to do what he likes, and he hates these complications.
This time, however, he was really annoyed.
So much so that he didnât completely reject Nick Furyâs proposal.
If it werenât for Anbrellaâs recent actions, Nick Fury convincing Tony would not have been so easy.
âAlso, you should pay more attention to your security. Now that Mr. Namikaze is helping, I am somewhat relieved. I have some issues internally that I need to go back and check. I will also get involved and help with the investigation concerning biochemical research at Stark GroupâŠâ
Nick Fury also showed his sincerity.
âNo need, although there is indeed no media involved now, our legal team is no less powerful than any top-level group.â
Tony Stark waved his hand grandly.
Let them investigate, let them do it within the rules they set, use their rules to beat themâŠ
Just then, Jarvis suddenly spoke up
âSir, Dr. Stephen has awakened, and he is currently arguing with RhodesâŠâ
Rhodesâs injuries were much lighter than Stephenâs, so he woke up earlier, but the feeling of physical exhaustion made him stay here helplessly for now.
Although they controlled it with the Sealing Evil Technique & Five Elements Seal, even Tao Yu wasnât sure about the sturdiness of the seal; it needed more observation.
Now that Stephen has also awakened, Rhodes immediately started arguing with the person who caused him this ordeal.
When Tao Yu and others changed into isolation suits and entered the isolation room, they saw two gaunt patients verbally sparring.
Stephen was no match for Rhodes, who was like a rap artist.
Especially when Stephen raised his arm and looked at his gaunt arm and weak fingers, that emo-like aura of despair seemed to depress the atmosphere in the entire isolation room.
His whole demeanor was quite downcast.
Which made Rhodes, who was constantly spouting off like a rap artist, stop.
âHey, why are you acting like a child? I was harmed by you and just complaining a bit; why are you crying?⊠Canât I just stop complaining, crybaby?â
