Chapter 14: Tony is shocked! What are you doing here!?

Inside the cave.

Tony Stark and Ethan, who were sleeping, were suddenly awakened.

"I think I heard gunshots outside!?"

Ethan put on his glasses and said excitedly.

"Could it be Rhodes?"

Tony Stark speculated uncertainly, "This might be a good opportunity to escape!"

Instead of waiting to die, he quickly got up, dressed, and first installed the explosives he had prepared beforehand on the iron gate. Then he walked to the original Mark armor, which had not yet been fitted with a flamethrower, and called out to the bewildered Ethan.

"Ethan, I need help."

"How do I do it?"

Ethan quickly stepped forward and came to his side.

"Don't rush, just follow the steps we tested earlier and put the parts on me in order."

Tony Stark directed the other party in a calm tone.

He couldn't panic at this moment, otherwise Ethan would only be more panicked than him.

"I see."

Ethan nodded, picked up the parts one by one, and put them on the other person.

bang bang—

Suddenly, a loud banging on the iron gate rang out, accompanied by shouts in a language Tony Stark couldn't understand: "Ethan! Stark! Open the door!"

"They're here!"

Ethan was startled.

"Don't panic, help me start the power program."

Tony, sweat beading on his forehead, continued to calmly give instructions.

Ethan quickly did as instructed, and at the same time, an explosion rang out.

Boom—

Dust filled the air as the entire iron gate was blasted open by explosives, and seven or eight terrorists who attempted to rush into the cave were instantly blown to pieces.

Meanwhile, the power program began loading, but it was very slow, and it looked like it would take at least three to five minutes to complete.

"I'll buy you some time!"

Without a second thought, Ethan grabbed a submachine gun and charged toward the cave entrance.

"Come back! Proceed as planned!"

Tony was anxious and wanted to stop them, but it was too late.

"Um?"

However, the expected intense gunfire did not occur; instead, he heard a very familiar voice behind him.

"Brother, are you alright?"

"How could he possibly be here?"

The familiar figure flashed into Tony's mind, but he thought it was just a hallucination.

But the next second, Horn appeared in front of him like he was carrying a chick, with Ethan already knocked unconscious.

He was just about to enter the cave when he saw Ethan rushing out with a submachine gun. To avoid accidentally injuring anyone, he had no choice but to knock him unconscious.

"How is this possible?! Horn, my brother! What are you doing here?!"

Tony Stark stared in disbelief at Horn, his face filled with shock and disbelief, followed by intense anger. "Damn it, did they even capture you too?"

"You've misunderstood. I'm here to save you."

Horn glanced at the power program that was about to finish loading, then strode over to the armor design drafts on the table. Without hesitation, he folded them all and put them in his pocket.

This is good stuff; he won't leave it to those terrorists.

"You came to save me? Did you cause the commotion outside?"

Tony Stark paused for a moment, then became even more shocked.

Having been locked in this dark and sunless cave for more than two months, he had thought about many possible rescue scenarios, but he never imagined that the person who would come to rescue him would be Horn, whom he had raised since childhood!

"Yes, a special operations team transferred from Rhodes."

Horn gave a brief explanation, then turned his gaze back to the laptop. Seeing that the power program was fully loaded, he raised his pistol, pulled the trigger without a word, emptied the magazine, and completely destroyed the laptop and its data, making it impossible to recover.

"Walk!"

He changed the magazine, picked up Ethan again, and headed straight for the cave entrance. Natasha was stationed there, silently blowing the heads off any terrorists who noticed the anomaly and tried to approach.

dong dong dong-

Tony turned around, controlling his armor, and glanced at Natasha with surprise. Knowing that time was of the essence, he didn't ask any further questions, but inwardly he was praising, "Horn is something else, no wonder I raised him."

At the same time, it took huge strides to catch up quickly.

……

Outside the cave.

Thump thump thump—

Boom—

Gunfire and explosions were intense, but the terrorists were still suppressed by the firepower of the Cheetah Sixth Team and could not get any closer.

Their attention was completely drawn to the scene, and they didn't notice that three figures, one large and two small, appeared at the cave entrance behind them.

The loud noise Tony made when he walked in his original armor was also masked by the sounds of gunfire, making it difficult to detect.

The few terrorists who were close to the cave entrance were spotted by Horn, who anticipated their presence and shot them all in the head with a silenced pistol.

However, just as he was preparing to take Tony back along the same route up the western hillside...

Thump thump thump—

A sudden burst of gunfire erupted inside the cave.

"How could I forget about the monitoring room!"

Horn's eyes flashed, and he quickly grabbed Natasha around the waist to dodge.

His attention was completely focused on Tony and the terrorists outside the cave, and he completely ignored the people in the monitoring room.

Clang clang—

Bullets rained down on Tony's original Mark armor, sending up dazzling sparks in the night.

This immediately attracted the attention of more than a dozen terrorists nearby, who shouted and prepared to pull the trigger.

But the next second, a bizarre scene unfolded.

They seemed to have been put on pause, and bright red blood gushed from their bodies.

More than a dozen people, including those around them, and even the guns in their hands were not spared!

Everything was silently and imperceptibly cut in two by an invisible vacuum slash!

bang bang-

Meanwhile, Natasha, a senior agent, reacted very quickly. Even though Horn was holding her in his arms, it did not prevent her from pulling the trigger of her pistol and firing two bullets, which accurately hit the people in the cave, giving him no chance to shoot a second time.

"Seal Team Six, full firepower!"

Having just used [Storm Kick], Horn, whose face was slightly gray, saw that more people had discovered them. He no longer held back, quickly put Natasha down, handed Ethan to Tony, then took the submachine gun off his body and threw it to Natasha, while holding another rifle in his other hand, aiming at the enemy and pulling the trigger.

They have now successfully left the cave and no longer need to worry about being trapped and buried alive.

With his and Natasha's marksmanship, there's no need to worry about accidentally detonating missiles, and as for terrorists, their shooting angles make that even less of a concern.

"receive!"

The Cheetah Sixth Team, which had been drawing fire from the hilltop, received the signal and pulled out their well-prepared weapons.

In an instant, a barrage of bullets and rockets fired simultaneously, creating crossfire that caused the remaining dozens of terrorists in the valley to flee in panic, tumbling and crawling.

Even if a few managed to find an opportunity to retaliate, before they could even fire, Horn locked onto them with his Observation Haki and delivered a precise headshot.

dong dong dong-

Seeing this, Tony didn't stop and carried the unconscious Ethan towards the western hillside.

His Mark armor wasn't equipped with a flamethrower yet, and his only means of attack was his fists. Staying here wouldn't be of much help, so it was better to retreat quickly under their cover.

However, before leaving, he didn't forget to give one last piece of advice.

"Horn, remember to destroy all those missiles for me!"
