"It shouldn't be a problem."

Jaxon returned to the classroom, and the topic of discussion in the classroom was still the Spider Bully, which was now turned to Black Spiderman by the fans.

Betty was extremely excited, "Jaxon, have you seen the news about Black Spiderman?"

"I saw a little bit. What's wrong?"

"Do you think this Black Spiderman is a hero?"

"He's a hero, I guess."

Betty beamed, "We have the same idea! But this Daily Bugle actually said that he is a bad guy. It's so hateful!"

"The Daily Bugle?"

Jaxon immediately became interested, "Can you let me see it?"

"Sure."

Jaxon moved closer and saw the contents of the Daily Bugle.

It didn't take long for him to spot the number one anti-fan of Spider-Man, the owner of the Daily Bugle: J. Jonah Jameson.

In the comics and movies, his reports often discredited Spider-Man.

He was even very stingy and often deducted Peter's fees.

So much so that after Peter turned evil, he went to him to ask for his original salary back.

Now, he reported under his own pseudonym, "Black Spiderman."

If nothing unexpected happens, this Spider Bully, like Jaxon, will also be attacked by him.

As Jaxon watched the video, he found that it was true.

"Black Spiderman is not a superhero; his appearance has caused a lot of negative effects."

"He is not a hero of this city!"

Jaxon felt helpless. The boss of the Daily Bugle could really blacken anything.

'Forget it. I don't care about him. I won't keep using the Black Spiderman alias anyway.'

Betty looked a little sad, "I was planning to apply for a job at the Daily Bugle after graduation, but I didn't expect to work for such a newspaper."

"Then just change the newspaper. I believe you can definitely find a better one."

Betty seemed very happy to be encouraged by Jaxon.

"Thank you, Jaxon! You are so kind; you're a good person and always inspire me."

This guy was given a "nice guy" card?

Jaxon accepted it calmly and even joked with Betty.

"Betty, you know you're so nice. What do you mean by 'good person'?"

"Is there any other meaning in the East?" Betty asked back.

"That's right. When girls reject boys' confessions, they usually say, 'Thank you, you're a good person, but we're not suitable.'"

Betty hurriedly explained, "I didn't mean to reject you."

"I mean, if it were you, I wouldn't reject you."

"I…"

Jaxon looked at Betty's panic and comforted her, "It's okay, Betty. I know what you mean, so I'll accept your good guy card."

Jaxon teased Betty and was in a good mood.

It looked like he could definitely win over Betty first.

On the other side, Tony, wearing his armor, went to Area 16 and had a big battle with Obadiah's Iron Monger.

The time of the battle was advanced from evening to near noon.

The battle between the two sides spread from District 16 to the streets outside.

All passing vehicles were affected and forced into the chaos.

Although Tony tried his best to control the situation, Obadiah had gone mad and didn't care at all. His reckless attacks caused destruction and even casualties.

When Tony saw that the situation was spiraling out of control, he had no choice but to outsmart himself.

After a fierce battle, Tony chose to detonate the giant Ark reactor in Area 16, killing Obadiah's Iron Monger.

However, the noise of such a battle was too immense, and the impact was even greater than that of Jaxon's appearance.

Coulson looked at the aftermath of the battle and knew one thing deeply: he probably couldn't hide the truth anymore.

Sure enough, the news media rushed to the scene, eager to get first-hand information.

Outside Area 16, a large group of reporters soon gathered and began reporting.

"Hello everyone, I am a reporter from XX Media."

"Just now, a big battle took place in the industrial park of Stark Industries."

"According to passersby, the battle was between two steel robots."

"This war caused great damage to the nearby streets and Stark Industrial Park."

"We have reason to suspect that these two steel robots are products of Stark Industries."

"Now, the fight is over, but the cause and course of the incident are still unknown. We will continue to investigate."

"Next, we will play a video recorded by a passerby."

---

The situation was similar for all media outlets and newspapers, who began reporting on the incident.

This incident quickly replaced "Black Spiderman" and became the new hot topic.

After Tony defeated Obadiah, he also knew that the news had spread.

The next step was naturally to deal with this matter and resolve the rumors from outside.

Soon, Coulson came up with an idea to hold a press conference to clarify the situation.

In short, it was to let Tony distance himself from the incident.

Rhodes also arrived on the scene. As a military officer of the Country, Rhodes urgently contacted his superiors.

"Come forward and clarify? It seems like this is the only way."

In the car, Tony looked at the draft that Coulson and others had prepared for him and took a quick glance.

Soon, they arrived outside Area 16 and appeared before the gathered reporters.

It was as if Tony had no idea about the situation and had just come here to address the aftermath of the incident.

Tony showed up and was immediately surrounded by reporters.

As a driver and bodyguard, Happy stopped the reporters immediately to ensure Tony's safety.

Several agents brought by Coulson also acted as bodyguards to maintain order at the scene.

"Tony Stark, what do you want to say about this incident?"

"Is that Iron Robot the latest product of Stark Industries?"

"Will Stark Industries compensate for the damage caused by this incident?"

"…"

Tony was almost overwhelmed by the barrage of questions.

"Everyone, you will get the answers you want. Please be quiet."

"Regarding this incident, I can only say that since I came back, I have been recuperating at home due to health reasons."

"I attended a charity gala last night and left very quickly."

"You don't want to imply that I caused this, do you?"

Tony stood in front of the reporters and spoke extensively.

The reporters continued to ask questions, wanting to know more information.

Coulson seemed to think that it was enough and was ready to let Pepper take Tony away, believing that this was sufficient explanation.

For the next steps, Tony only needed to deal with the compensation, leaving the rest to SHIELD and the military.

Pepper quietly approached Tony's side, "It's almost done. Just promise to make compensation, that's all."

Tony hesitated but finally chose to make a public announcement.

"I lied to you before. The truth is, there are many potential threats in this world that are difficult for ordinary people to deal with, so the world needs superheroes."

"I am the hero in the iron armor; I am Iron Man!"

Tony Stark's declaration shocked all the reporters and media.

The scene erupted into chaos, and all the reporters rushed to get more information.

However, Tony left the scene under the protection of agents and others.

---

All major journalists and newspapers reported the incident frantically, and the news of the "Black Spiderman" was immediately overshadowed.

Black Spiderman? What the hell?

In this world, in this city, Tony Stark is the undisputed top star.

Even top movie stars are not as popular as Tony.

With Tony publicly announcing that he was Iron Man, this news quickly swept the entire Internet.

"Tony Stark is Iron Man?"

"I don't believe a playboy can be a true superhero. Someone like Captain America is a real hero."

"That's right. My idea of a superhero must be someone like Captain America."

"I have to say, that mecha looks so cool. I hope to have a mecha too."

"A man's romance is a mecha!"

Everyone in school was buzzing about this news.

Jaxon, Betty, Peter, Ned, and others were also discussing what happened today.

Fatty Ned was extremely excited, "Peter, did you see that?"

"Tony Stark actually wants to be a superhero!"

"It's just crazy."

"That armor is so cool. If I had money, I would also love to build a suit like that."

"The media reporters must be going wild right now."

Peter was also very excited, but he was calmer than Ned.

"I see."

Ned continued to ask, "Peter, you don't seem to be in good spirits recently. What's the matter?"

"I saw some of my father's relics."

Ned thought Peter was just reminiscing about his past, so he immediately consoled him, "Are you okay?"

Peter nodded, recovering his composure, "It's okay."

"Next week, after we visit Oscorp Industries, shall we go and relax together?"

Peter was about to agree, but when he thought about his own investigation, he refused, "I—I may have something to do."

"Oh well."
