Chapter 117: Assassinating the Protagonist? The Abyss Team's Sudden Strike
On the other side.
When Tony Stark finished reviewing the data and once again looked out at reality, he was startled to find himself the only person still standing on the scene.
Tony Stark: "......"
What kind of situation is this? He is, after all, the president of the Stark Group.
The Iron Man of the Marvel world—why were everyone else sitting down while he alone remained standing? Was this discrimination? Tony Stark furrowed his brows, first glancing over at Su Han, Luo Hao, and the others.
At first glance, he saw Sect Master Luo Hao turn his head slightly; a faint smile appeared on his exquisitely beautiful face, yet his gaze carried a hint of coldness.
Tony Stark shrank his neck, instinctively turning his head away,不敢 to look directly.
Can't provoke him, can't provoke him.
In the God Slayer world, Sect Master Luo Hao was peerless in martial arts across the land, the Martial Arts Alliance Leader of the vast Chinese earth.
Although he appeared stunningly beautiful, among all the people Tony Stark had ever seen in his life, he could truly be called a figure of unparalleled brilliance.
But when it came right down to it, Tony Stark didn't dare to even take another look.
However, when Tony Stark shifted his gaze to the Gao Ban siblings on the other side.
After hesitating for a moment, he finally let out a long sigh.
Deciding that he should continue standing while reviewing the data.
After all, those two siblings were sitting together; what would it mean if he just inserted himself between them without cause? Moreover, his friendship with the Gao Ban siblings wasn't particularly deep.
Su Han summoned a nearby waiter and ordered several cups of coffee.
Although Aizen had issued a mental suggestion to everyone in the café, this suggestion merely ensured that those inside wouldn't notice anything unusual about Su Han and his group; it did not mean they were completely ignored or overlooked.
"President!"
Gao Ban Kousuke opened his mouth, finally unable to suppress the doubts in his heart, and asked, "Why did you allow Aizen and Accelerator to leave, while you, Sect Master Luo Hao, and Mr. Stark all remain seated here without moving?"
Based on Gao Ban Kousuke's understanding of Su Han, there was no way Su Han would hand over all the mission targets to others.
Su Han rubbed his chin.
Falling into silence.
Only after a long while did his eyes flicker slightly as he gazed steadily at the few people before him.
"It's just a guess."
Pausing for a moment, Su Han continued speaking.
"I feel that those guys might come looking for you."
The Gao Ban siblings looked at each other, both stunned.
Gokou Ruri also stared tightly at Su Han, her face showing surprise.
"Of course, you don't need to worry too much about it."
Ultimately, this is just one of my guesses."
Su Han smiled ambiguously, neither confirming nor denying.
In the end, he avoided answering the question.
What Su Han was thinking about at this moment was his previous encounter in the Re:Zero world.
At that time, the Re:Zero world had already been turned into a scorched wasteland by the Abyss Team.
And under such circumstances, the last thing the Abyss Team did was go to Roswaal Manor to kill Emilia, Rem, and Ram.
Although it seemed somewhat coincidental, Su Han suspected there might be some guidance from the Main God behind it.
"Main God... let me see whether my judgment is correct!"
Su Han picked up a cup of freshly served coffee, quietly took a sip, his eyes flickering slightly.
"Destroying a world might benefit you... but killing the destined protagonist of a world..."
"...should also benefit you equally."
Although there were doubts in their hearts, and what Su Han said startled them, he did not continue discussing this topic further.
Instead, he began discussing daily life matters with them, even taking the leisure to guide Gokou Ruri on how to further expand her Observation Haki.
Gokou Ruri's Observation Haki was inherited from Whitebeard.
Whitebeard's attainment in Observation Haki was not quite at the absolute peak; however, thanks to the effect of points, Su Han had now elevated his own Observation Haki to an intermediate level, second only to the advanced tier.
In other words, aside from Rayleigh and Roger's generation, his Observation Haki was unquestionably the strongest.
Therefore, his help to Gokou Ruri was even greater than what Whitebeard could provide.
As they talked, even Gao Ban Kousuke couldn't hold back his curiosity and asked about the cultivation method for Armament Haki.
Although Su Han did not hide the information, he ultimately issued a warning.
"Gao Ban Kousuke! I will teach you the techniques for cultivating Armament Haki, but before that! You must learn the physical training methods I taught you."
"You must train your physical stamina to its peak before you can begin cultivation."
"Otherwise, the consequences will be extremely severe! You might die."
Gao Ban Kousuke shivered, then nodded very seriously, "I will pay attention!"
Armament Haki, fundamentally, is a technique where one trains their physical body to its peak, thereby further enhancing the body's strength and defense.
Even Gokou Ruri, who had consumed the Slip-Slip Fruit, currently did not qualify to practice it.
When Su Han originally cultivated Armament Haki, he benefited from the privilege of being the President.
For Gao Ban Kousuke, it wasn't impossible, but the possibility was extremely low, and absolutely not feasible right now.
They savored the coffee for over an hour before Su Han and the others finally stood up.
However, just as they rose, Gokou Ruri suddenly remembered a crucial question.
"By the way... President, where are you going next?"
Gokou Ruri hesitated slightly, "If you plan to stay in our world for a long time, then where will you, President, be staying during that period?"
If it were just Sect Master Luo Hao, then provided he didn't mind...
Itsugari Ruri didn't mind Sect Master Luo Hao sleeping at her home, sharing a bed with her.
But adding Su Han or someone like Tony Stark made that impossible.
If the group wanted to book a hotel room, their identities would be a major problem.
Gao Ban paused, just about to speak, when Su Han extended a finger and gently shook it at him.
His gaze instantly sharpened as he looked outside.
It wasn't just Su Han; Luo Hao beside him also turned his head, his eyes flickering slightly.
Her spiritual sense had detected something, and a faint curve formed on the corners of her lips.
The voice was amiable.
"A bit interesting!"
In that instant, Luo Hao's aura was completely different from before.
Compared to the humble and elegant beauty of Jiangnan she had been earlier, the current Luo Hao displayed sharp edges like a blade drawn from its sheath, exuding an oppressive pressure.
Tony Stark, the Gao Ban sisters, and even Itsugari Ruri truly experienced in this moment the bearing of... the Martial Arts Alliance Leader, the King of China.
"Brother-in-arms, I never expected your previous guess to actually be correct!"
Su Han looked out the window, fully activating his Observation Haki at this moment.
His voice carried a hint of sighing.
"Actually, I'd rather my previous guess had been wrong... Now the only thing worth wondering is... whether killing a world's protagonist, or an important supporting character, is purely guidance from the Main God Space... or if the Main God Space offers mission rewards for this."
With a crisp crash, the coffee shop's floor-to-ceiling window shattered completely.
The entire coffee shop erupted into chaos, filled with screams and shouts of disbelief.
Aizen had hypnotized them, but that could only make everyone ignore the abnormalities on Su Han.
It did not mean they were unaware of other dangers.
With such a huge commotion now, they naturally panicked and scattered in all directions.
The intruder who burst into the coffee shop was a burly man standing 1.8 meters tall.
Muscles bulged inch by inch across his physique, his skin was dark, with faint arcs of lightning flashing, and he wore a forehead protector from the Hidden Cloud Village on his head.
As soon as he barged in, his gaze landed on Su Han and the others.
Seeing Sect Master Luo Hao caused him little surprise; clearly, he didn't know her.
But seeing Tony Stark brought a touch of shock and uncertainty.
Especially looking at the iron armor behind Tony Stark, his gaze gained a hint of shock.
However, finally, his gaze settled on the Gao Ban siblings and Black Cat.
His voice carried a hint of relief, along with a trace of ferocious killing intent.
"Although it's a bit strange... let's kill the target first!"
