"Jarvis, switch to blaster mode!"
[Anti-Jiu You Armor -- Cannon Blaster Mode]
At Tony's command, Jarvis, the AI inside the Iron Man suit, quickly responded and controlled the Anti-Jiu You weapons on the Mark 8 suit to transform into its cannon form.
In the blink of an eye, three sleek and futuristic-looking cannons in a gold and red hue appeared on the shoulders and chest of the Mark 8 suit, their barrels emitting a low humming sound as they aimed at Shukaku inside the martial arts school.
After the Battle of New York, Tony had plans to upgrade his Iron Man suit. However, it was after the events with the [Flying Dutchman] at New York Bay that his desire to do so became even stronger.
Upgrading the suit, including researching Chitauri technology, would take time. Although he had some insight into it, it was clear that turning it into a fully operational combat force like the Iron Man suit wouldn't be easy.
But Tony Stark wasn't an ordinary man. By studying the energy system of the weapons used by the Chitauri army, he successfully incorporated it into the previously developed [Anti-Jiu You] armor's add-on weaponry.
Therefore, his current add-ons should be corrected to [Anti-Jiu You II].
Boom!
A blue beam of energy fired from the cannon on Tony's suit and blasted Shukaku not far away as Peter Parker, the young Spider-Man, watched excitedly.
"Is this the real power of the Avengers?"
"Mr. Stark, you truly are one of the superheroes who saved New York."
The formidable power exhibited by the Anti-Jiu You II armor made Spider-Man look on in awe and filled him with excitement, wishing he could transform into Iron Man and launch an attack against the monsters before them.
At the end of the day, Peter was still just a half-grown kid. The reason he became the heroic Spider-Man was not only due to Uncle Ben's dying remark but also because of his own selfishness.
Three beams of eerie blue light blasted through Shukaku's massive body, carrying with them a terrifying power that exploded and shattered one of Shukaku's arms into sand.
The movement of Shukaku's continuous sand gathering stopped abruptly as he looked down at his disintegrated arm.
In the yellow beast's gaze, a large amount of yellow sand quickly gathered at the fracture, and in the blink of an eye, a new arm appeared on Shukaku's body.
"Right... I knew it wouldn't be that simple."
Tony raised an eyebrow, watching as Shukaku's body restored itself and subconsciously pursed his lips.
While the [Anti-Jiu You Type II] barrel on his body showed no sign of stopping, Tony once again fired a concentrated blue beam of light at Shukaku.
"Roar!"
Shukaku let out a roar as he was forced to stop his "recovery" process and quickly gathered a massive amount of yellow sand around himself, forming a huge shield that blocked Tony's attack.
Boom!
The blue beam of light struck the shield and shattered it, but in an instant, a new shield formed to block the attack.
And it wasn't over yet.
Seeing Iron Man attacking him, Shukaku opened his mouth and gathered icy winds to form a massive wind ball. [Wind Release: Vacuum Blast!]
"Jarvis, defense mode!"
[Anti-Jiu You Armor - Fortress Defense Mode]
Faced with Shukaku's terrifying counterattack, Tony inside the Iron Man armor, calmly issued the command.
Immediately, the 'Anti-Jiu You II Type' add-ons that had previously transformed into cannons on the Mark 8 transformed once again and instantly attached itself to the Mark 8, turning it into its heavy armor form.
The fierce wind force created by the Vacuum Blast swept through Chinatown like a raging storm, accompanied by a tremendous roar that directly destroyed the martial arts school in front of them.
Controlling his bulky suit, Tony stood up from the ruins of the school, breathing a sigh of relief. Even with the protection of the 'Anti-Jiu You II Type' add-ons, he almost couldn't block the direct attack of the Vacuum Blast. The armor on his body continued to emit tiny electric currents. Turning his helmet to survey the devastation in Chinatown, Tony's expression suddenly changed as if he had just thought of something. "Hey, kid, are you okay?"
The power of the Vacuum Blast was so great that Tony was worried about the safety of the young man in the tight suit.
"I'm okay, Mr. Stark!"
Fortunately, the situation wasn't as bad as Tony had feared.
From the roof of a nearby store, Spider-Man cautiously poked his head out and answered.
In fact, a second before Shukaku launched the [Wind Release: Vacuum Blast], Peter instinctively evaded due to the crazy warning from his spider-sense.
But he felt guilty for not warning Tony about the attack and only thinking about his own escape.
'That's not what a superhero should do, Peter. I should have warned Mr. Stark!'
'But, that's a scary monster. Is that the type of enemy the Avengers face every day?'
On one side, Peter was deeply reflecting on his previous actions, while on the other, Tony breathed a sigh of relief. Although theoretically, the other party came despite his advice, so even if there were problems, he shouldn't be blamed. But if Peter really encountered some kind of situation, Tony would also feel remorseful.
"Master Roshi, you didn't tell me this guy was so difficult to deal with."
Taking a deep breath and pulling back his thoughts that had wandered far away, Tony looked at Shukaku, who had executed such a terrifying strike in front of him. He couldn't help but say so with a bitter smile.
He had just finished upgrading his 'Anti-Jiu You Type II' armor with great difficulty, but as a result, he could barely withstand a single strike from this big guy.
"Careful, Shukaku is still trying to recover. If we let it continue like this, when its power is completely restored, even I'm not sure if I can seal it back up."
[Reputation points from Iron Man +750]
[Reputation points from Natasha Romanoff ...]
[Reputation points from Spider-Man ...]
The answer from Master Roshi, who was in battle, caused Tony's heart to feel heavy.
"Jarvis, status report."
"Sir, the Mark 8 has little damage, but some parts of the 'Anti-Jiu You Type II' are so badly damaged that they can no longer change form."
"Got it."
With the devastation from the vacuum blast directly in front of him, Tony didn't expect the battle armor to remain intact.
He looked at Shukaku, who had stopped his attack and started to gather yellow sand again, took a deep breath, and controlled the battle armor to take heavy steps, "Looks like we have to start fighting hand-to-hand."
"Jarvis, Type II crusher mode!"
