Chapter 98: Ivan Vanko! An Unexpected Appearance!
Boom—!
Soon, the race began, and all the Formula race cars shot out like arrows, speeding down the track, constantly increasing their speed.
Tony, being an amateur, was directly squeezed in the middle and couldn't get the first place, but Jiang Bai was very much looking forward to the appearance of Whiplash.
Once his timeline passed, he would likely get another chance to draw a trading partner!
During the fifth lap, a long-haired, tattooed man with a toothpick in his mouth walked onto the track step by step from the side of the track.
At this point, even if the staff wanted to stop him, they couldn't.
The track was full of high-speed race cars, and this situation was undoubtedly suicidal!
Not only could he get into an accident, but the race car drivers could also be affected; with a living person suddenly appearing on the track, their first reaction would definitely be to avoid or slow down.
Only those extremely hot-headed race car drivers might directly control their cars to crash into him!
Then, the long-haired, tattooed man in an orange work suit swung two long whips from his hands, and then white flowing electric light appeared on the two long whips, and his orange work suit was burned away and fell off.
It revealed a simple device on his chest, and the center of his chest was a palladium Arc Reactor! It was exactly the same as Tony's.
Facing the oncoming race cars, he didn't hesitate at all, swinging the long whips in his hands to strike the race cars, and the terrifying power directly split the race cars in half.
The struck race car also lost balance, and the two parts began to tumble on the track, and the race car driver struggled to crawl out of the race car's wreckage!
After he crawled out, the race car directly exploded, with flames soaring into the sky, and this scene also attracted the attention of the entire audience.
And he is Whiplash! His real name is Ivan Vanko, a Russian scientist.
He is a technical genius; his father, Anton Vanko, was exiled by Tony Stark's father, Howard Stark, for trying to use the Tesseract to gain ill-gotten wealth.
After Anton's death, his son, Ivan, decided to bring down the Stark family to avenge his father.
He first used the Arc Reactor technology left by Anton Vanko to create a simple Whiplash armor.
He prepared to kill Tony Stark in this highly anticipated place.
Jiang Bai in the VIP room watched this scene quite calmly, but Happy had already run out.
Pepper also followed him out of the VIP room, apparently preparing to deliver the armor to Tony, regardless of who the opponent was targeting.
But since he appeared here, Jiang Bai had no desire to act. Tony was still on the track, and as a bodyguard, Happy naturally had to protect his boss's safety!
Rushing out of the VIP room and arriving at the parking lot, Pepper followed closely behind, and then Happy started the Rolls-Royce, preparing to drive directly onto the track!
In this short time, Ivan Vanko had used the simple device he created to send several speeding race cars flying.
Almost all race car drivers who saw this scene chose to avoid and slow down, but this also caused the race cars behind them to be unable to stop, directly leading to a multi-car pile-up.
Soon, Tony's race car appeared, and a ruthless glint flashed in Ivan Vanko's eyes.
He swung his energy whip fiercely at Tony's race car; because he missed slightly, he didn't directly split Tony Stark and his race car in half, which disappointed him a bit.
Immediately after, he attacked Tony Stark again, with the two long whips striking the driver's seat, but Tony had already left the driver's seat at this time.
He climbed to another position, which also foiled his purpose.
Looking at the race car fuel constantly leaking from around, Tony had an idea.
Boom—!
He drew some flames from another race car, and the race car fuel was instantly ignited!
Ivan Vanko also discovered Tony's location, and the long whip immediately flew over, hitting exactly where the race car fuel was, which caused the race car wreckage to explode directly.
However, this explosion did not resolve Ivan Vanko; it only made him retreat a few steps, but Tony was also exposed within his attack range, and he was in great danger at this moment.
Jiang Bai in the VIP room frowned slightly; Happy should have appeared by now, why hadn't he seen him yet?
He hadn't even seen the shadow of the Rolls-Royce.
At this moment, Tony also started to panic a bit, after all, he didn't have his armor at this time, and he was no match for the person in front of him!
"Damn it, Jiang! Save me quickly!"
Helplessly, Tony had to shout towards the VIP room.
After using Mind Reading, he realized that because the track was blocked by a multi-car pile-up, Happy couldn't drive over.
At this moment, he was running towards Tony with a red and silver box.
"Cain, go save Tony."
"Alright, boss!"
Boom—!
Then Jiang Bai spoke to Red Tank next to him, and then used the Chicken Talisman and Rabbit Talisman to help him out.
The next second, a burly man flew out of the VIP room like a missile, directly smashing next to Tony, creating a large pit on the track.
Red Tank jumped out of it and looked coldly at Ivan Vanko.
Tony knew Red Tank was Jiang Bai's subordinate and immediately hid behind him!
He had known how fierce Red Tank was back on the fighter jet; he was completely reckless and never backed down.
"Since you're looking for death, I'll grant it to you!"
Clap—!
Ivan Vanko looked at the burly man blocking Tony Stark and said coldly, then swung his long whip at Red Tank.
Red Tank had no intention of dodging and allowed Ivan Vanko's whip to strike him; he didn't feel any pain.
However, his suit was torn by him.
At this moment, Happy also arrived in front of Tony with Tony's portable armor and handed the box to Tony!
He stepped on the box, and then two handles appeared; he grabbed the two handles and lifted them up, spreading his arms.
The armor automatically began to don Tony!
Thirty seconds later, Tony had already put on the portable armor, but this armor had no flight function or other weapons!
Only the Repulsor Ray could be used, and the portable armor was very thin, with weak defense.
"OK, buddy, let me handle him!"
"Alright."
After Tony finished donning his armor, he spoke to Red Tank in front of him; he wanted to deal with the opponent himself!
Red Tank glanced at Tony after he had finished donning his armor, nodded, and walked to the side.
Tony raised his hand and fired a Repulsor Ray at Ivan Vanko.
Perhaps because of the portable armor, the power of the Repulsor Ray was not strong, and even Ivan Vanko, a normal person, could withstand it.
Ivan Vanko swung the long whip in his hand, striking directly at Tony's armor, creating a large shower of sparks.
