Phantom Kid in the American Comic World
129. Flipping Table

"Naked!"

Fury raised his voice intensely. 

"Yes, I'm all ears." 

Tony immediately replied, then pulled his hand out of his ear. 

"Are you aware that palladium poisoning will kill you?" 

Fury's face was full of anger, and his tone was much fiercer than his previous polite personality. 

"Maybe you don't believe that we have information about the new element, but you have to trust your father, Howard!" 

“To be honest, if it wasn't for your father Howard being one of the founders of SHIELD and having a deep relationship with us, no matter how serious your case may be, we wouldn't care if you died being poisoned tomorrow. .” 

Fury said, next, sentence by sentence, as his eyes filled with disappointment. 

"But you're Howard's son, so we can't just ignore you." 

“See your current situation! I'm here to save your life. You know that you are suffering from a serious case!” 

"But your attitude has made me see no hope at all, I think you've failed to live up to Howard's expectations."

Hearing this, Tony's eyes turned cold. 

Really, he let Howard down? 

Oh, my God, you gotta be kidding me! 

"Huh, it's funny you think you know my father better than I do." 

Tony smiled disdainfully. 

“To be honest, since the day of my birth, my father never expected anything from me. Before the establishment of SHIELD, I knew nothing about these things I talked about.”

"I even think you're more like Howard's son than I am." 

"How credible do you hold in what you say?" 

"Do you think you are the center of my world?" 

Fury asked loudly. 

"Something big happened in the southwestern United States a while ago, and believe me, it's a million times more troubling than you, and Los Angeles, San Francisco, are, and Texas all have serious issues to deal with!"

“And this is just what happened in North America. There's another big guy in South America, waiting for us to calm him down.” 

“Why should I take the time from my busy schedule to chat with you here?” 

Fury took out a black safe out of nowhere and placed it on the table in front of him. 

“We were able to evacuate everyone from the area for a short time, but we were unable to hold them for too long. We do not have the right to affect the lives of residents excessively, and we cannot inform the public about our existence.” 

Fury slowed down his tone. 

“Stark, this is what your father kept in SHIELD; he asked us to give it to you at the right time.” 

“In it lies the secret of an entirely new element, the beginning of the revolutionary energy.”

“Howard praised it as the 'key of the future.' You are the only person who can use this key to open the lock. And only then, you can completely get rid of the torment of palladium poisoning.” 

Fury stretched out his hand and gestured for Tony to come and take it himself. 

Unexpectedly, Tony's face changed in an instant, his expression as if restraining his anger. 

"Nick Fury? A SHIELD? You guys really played a good hand.”

“Stop telling these failed lies! Do you consider me an idiot? ” 

Tony clenched his fists on the table and instantly split the dining table in front of him in two. 

"Crack!" 

Faced with Tony's sudden flip-flop, Natasha, who was standing to the side, quickly pulled her gun and aimed at Tony.

Fury didn't panic at all, at least on the surface. 

Tony was still wearing his armor, if they fought, they would be at a very disadvantageous position. 

"What do you mean, Stark?" 

Tony says it word for word. 

“Until recently, Phantom Kid explained to me the real you!” 

Ghost boy! 

The moment he heard that name, Fury's pupils suddenly shrank. 

How could the Phantom Kid know about SHIELD, and how could he tell Iron Man what they really were? 

Coulson and Barton shouldn't have made contact with Kid. Did he know he was being watched? 

It also couldn't explain how he knew the word "SHIELD". 

Unless Kid's real identity has been related to SHIELD, or. he's a SHIELD agent! 

Fury thinks that the Phantom Kid might trigger a connection between SHIELD and Iron Man, but he has no idea what his goal is. 

After all, after Fury decided to return, he had to thoroughly investigate the inside of SHIELD 

It had been a long time since he had tested the blood of his employees, this time was a good opportunity. 

“My father entrusted his relics to you to keep until the right time?” 

“Hah! What a good lie to tell me. Do you think I would believe this kind of leaking rhetoric? 

Tony reached out and pointed at the safe in front of Fury. 

"If this is really the hard work of life that my father asked you to keep, then why did I never know it?" 

“New Elements News is a big secret among others. Besides, you were young back then, so to avoid being taken by others, we had to keep Howard's relics locked.”

Fury looked calm. 

"Now, didn't I just send it to you?" 

"Do you think I'm three years old?" 

Tony did not hide his disgust.

“You said you wanted to hand it to me at the right time. What's the right time? Now?" 

"Do you have to wait until I'm dying to give me information about the new element and let me finish it?" 

"Are you confident when you say that?"

"Can you say that my father knew that I would have been poisoned by palladium decades ago?" 

At this point, Fury cut him hard. 

"You're thinking dangerous now, Stark, don't let a few words from the Phantom Kid cloud your judgment."

"I don't know what he's saying, but everything I'm saying right now is true, and I guarantee it with my life."

Fury tried his best to deal with Tony with a sincere expression. 

"You asked me to trust an undercover agent.I'm sorry, but that's too much to ask for." 

"I bet if it wasn't for the palladium poisoning that killed me, you wouldn't be able to return this thing to me." 

"In the last few decades, you must have experimented enough with this thing, trying to bring out new elements yourself?" 

A hint of sarcasm flashed in Tony's eyes. 

“It looks like your scientists are all trash and have no idea what this is, otherwise you should have brought a new element today, and my father's secret will be buried in the SHIELD archive forever.” 

"You even sent undercover special agents by my side to monitor the intensity of my intoxication at all times, to make sure that I wouldn't actually die." 

"Why don't you want me dead?" 

Tony asked rhetorically and answered himself. 

"Since you fell in love with my suit, you want Iron Man to be a weapon in SHIELD's hands and help you overcome a problem you can't handle!" 

“You are no different from those who want to use a battle suit as a weapon!” 

After speaking, Tony raised his hand to point at Fury, and the palm cannon lit up with a blue fluorescent glow of accumulated energy…
