Chapter 240

When Tony Stark finished reviewing the data and looked back at reality, he suddenly realized he was the only one standing in the room.

Tony Stark: "......"

What was going on? He was, after all, the CEO of Stark Industries.

Iron Man of the Marvel world—why was everyone seated except him? Was this discrimination? Tony Stark frowned, first glancing toward Su Han, Luo Hao, and others.

The first glance revealed Luo Hao, the sect leader, slightly turning her head; her exquisitely beautiful face bore a faint smile, yet her gaze carried a chill.

Tony Stark shrank his neck and instinctively turned away, not daring to look directly.

Can't provoke her, can't provoke her.

Luo Hao, the supreme martial master of the Assassins' World, the Wu Lin Alliance's leader of Huaxia.

Though she appeared utterly exquisite, among all the people Tony Stark had ever seen, she could rightly be called a peerless beauty.

Yet in truth, he dared not even glance at her more than once.

But when Tony Stark turned his gaze to the Gao Ban siblings beside her,

he hesitated, then finally let out a long sigh.

He decided to keep standing and continue reviewing his data.

After all, the siblings were sitting together—what would it mean if he just barged in? And his relationship with the Gao Ban siblings wasn't deep at all.

Su Han summoned a nearby server and ordered several cups of coffee.

Although Ranran had issued a mental suggestion to everyone in the café, this mental suggestion only prevented those in the café from noticing the abnormalities of Su Han and others—it did not make them ignore Su Han and his group entirely.

"President!"

Gao Ban realm opened his mouth, unable to suppress his curiosity any longer, and asked, "Why did you let Ranran and Ichigo leave, while you, Luo Hao Sect Leader, and Mr. Stark all sat here without moving?"

Based on his understanding of Su Han, Su Han would never hand over the mission's objectives entirely to others.

Su Han rubbed his chin.

He fell silent.

After a long while, his gaze flickered slightly as he fixed his eyes on those before him.

"It's just a guess."

He paused, then continued.

"I feel... those people might come for you."

The Gao Ban siblings exchanged glances, both stunned.

Wugeng Liuli also stared intently at Su Han, her face filled with shock.

"Of course, you don't need to worry too much.

After all, it's merely my guess."

Su Han smiled ambiguously.

He ultimately avoided answering the question.

What Su Han was thinking about now was his previous encounter in the From Zero world.

At that time, the From Zero world had been reduced to ash by the Abyss Team.

And under those circumstances, the last thing the Abyss Team did was go to the Roswaal Manor to kill Emilia and Lei Mu and Lei Mu.

It seemed like a coincidence, but Su Han suspected the Master God might have guided it.

"Master God... let me see whether my judgment is correct!"

Su Han picked up a freshly served cup of coffee, sipped it slowly, and his gaze flickered slightly.

"Destroying a world might benefit you... but killing a world's destined protagonist—

should benefit you as well."

Though they were puzzled and Su Han's words startled them, Su Han did not continue discussing this topic further.

He began discussing everyday matters with them, even taking the time to guide Wugeng Liuli on how to further expand her Observation Haki.

Wugeng Liuli's Observation Haki was inherited from Bai Hu Zi.

Bai Hu Zi's mastery of Observation Haki was not insignificant, but not at the peak either; now, under the effect of points, Su Han had elevated Observation Haki to Intermediate, just below Advanced.

In other words, excluding Kariya and those like Luo Jie, his Observation Haki was unquestionably the strongest.

Thus, his assistance to Wugeng Liuli was even more effective than Bai Hu Zi's.

As they talked, even Gao Ban realm could no longer suppress his curiosity and asked about the cultivation method of Armament Haki.

Su Han did not conceal it, but ultimately issued a warning.

"Gao Ban realm! I've taught you the technique of Armament Haki, but before that! You must first learn the physical training method I taught you.

Only when your physical strength reaches its peak can you begin cultivation.

Otherwise, the consequences will be extremely severe—you might die."

Gao Ban realm shuddered, then nodded seriously, "I'll be careful!"

Armament Haki, in essence, is a technique that further enhances the body's strength and defense after physical strength has been pushed to its peak.

Even Wugeng Liuli, who had consumed the Gura Gura no Mi, currently lacked the qualification to train it.

When Su Han cultivated Armament Haki, he benefited from the President's privileges.

Gao Ban realm might theoretically be able to, but the likelihood is extremely low—and certainly not now.

They sipped coffee for over an hour before finally rising.

But as they stood up, Wugeng Liuli suddenly remembered a critical question.

"By the way... President, where are you going next?"

Wugeng Liuli hesitated slightly, "If you're going to stay in our world for a long time, where will you stay during that time?"

If it were only Luo Hao Sect Leader, then as long as she didn't mind—

Wugeng Liuli didn't mind Luo Hao sleeping in her home, sleeping beside her.

But if Su Han or Tony Stark were added, it would be impossible.

And if the group wanted to open a hotel, their identities would be a major problem.

Gao Ban paused, about to speak, when Su Han extended a finger and gently shook it at him.

His gaze instantly sharpened, turning toward the outside.

Not only Su Han, but Luo Hao beside him also turned her head, her eyes flickering slightly.

Her spiritual sense had sensed something; a faint curve formed at her lips.

The voice was warm.

"Interesting!"

In that instant, Luo Hao's aura changed completely.

Compared to the previously gentle, refined Jiangnan beauty, the current Luo Hao radiated sharpness, like a blade unsheathed, exuding pressure.

Tony Stark, the Gao sisters, and even Wugeng Liuli truly felt at this moment… the bearing of the Wu Lin Alliance leader, the King of Huaxia.

"Elder Brother, I never expected your earlier guess was correct!"

Su Han looked out the window, fully activating his Observation Haki.

His voice carried a hint of sigh.

"Actually, I'd rather my earlier guess had been wrong… The only thing now worth wondering is… whether killing a world's protagonist or key supporting character is merely the Master Space's pure guidance… or whether the Master Space offers mission rewards for this."

CRASH—the café's floor-to-ceiling window shattered completely.

The entire café erupted in chaos—screams and shocked exclamations surged forth.

Aizen had hypnotized them, but it only made everyone ignore Su Han's abnormalities.

It didn't mean they were truly unaware of other dangers.

With such a commotion now, they would naturally panic and scatter in all directions.

The intruder into the café was a muscular man, 1.8 meters tall.

His body bulged with muscle, his skin dark, faint lightning arcs flickering across it; he wore a Kumogakure headband.

As soon as he burst in, his gaze landed on Su Han and the others.

Seeing the Luo Hao Sect leader, he showed little surprise—he clearly didn't recognize her.

But seeing Tony Stark, he displayed a flicker of uncertainty.

Especially when he looked at the iron armor behind Tony Stark, his eyes held a trace of shock.

Yet in the end, his gaze settled on the Gao siblings and the black cat.

His voice carried a hint of relief, along with a cruel killing intent.

"Though it's a bit strange… still, first kill the target!"
