Chapter 1357 Snatching
But Tony is not afraid of these challenges. He believes that his wisdom and courage are enough to overcome all difficulties.

Obadiah stood in his spacious and slightly deserted office. Outside the window was the bustling city night scene, but there was no appreciation in his eyes, only a deep gloom.

His subordinates hurried in and reported the news that Pepper had gone to find Tony. This was like a stone thrown into his already turbulent heart, causing even greater waves.

"Forget it, it's time to solve this problem."

Obadiah whispered.

As long as the power armor prototype is mastered and successfully demonstrated to the Ministry of Defense and the military, Tony Stark's whereabouts will no longer be the focus of attention.

After all, in this world where profit comes first, powerful weapons are far more likely to attract the interest of the top leaders than a missing genius inventor.

He took out an exquisite black box from the bottom of the drawer. When he opened it, he saw a device inside that looked ordinary but full of technology - a sound wave and strong electromagnetic wave generator.

This is his secret weapon, which can paralyze the target's entire body in an instant, making it unable to resist.

Obadiah's lips curled up in a sneer, as if he had foreseen his own victory.

The two small luminous objects he wore on his ears were shields that could block and prevent accidental injury to himself.

Meanwhile, Tony Stark was sitting in his makeshift workshop, surrounded by various electronic components and blueprints.

Since destroying the Gemilah arsenal, he has been trying to make up for past mistakes of greed and negligence.

He planned to use his technology to sneak into the Stark Industries database and find and destroy the weapons order information that bypassed the board of directors and sold directly to terrorists.

However, the cruel reality forced him to face an embarrassing fact: he had been kicked out of his own company and was even forbidden to set foot in the door of Stark Industries.

Helpless, Tony thought of Pepper, the woman who had always silently supported and understood him.

He worked overtime and wrote a Trojan program that could penetrate the company's firewall and stored it on a USB flash drive.

He believed that with Chili's intelligence and familiarity with the company, she would be able to complete the task.

When Pepper received Tony's request, although she was full of doubts and uneasiness, she still decided to help Tony.

So, late at night, she sneaked into the Stark Industries building and inserted the USB drive into Obadiah's dedicated computer.

Just as she was nervously waiting for the program to run and preparing to evacuate, an unexpected discovery made her feel like she was falling into an ice cellar.

While browsing the files, she accidentally clicked on a video that was filmed while Tony was being held captive by terrorists.

In the picture, Raza, the infamous leader of the "Freedom Fighters" terrorist organization, is talking to Obadiah, and Obadiah's words are cold and ruthless, constantly urging Raza to kill Tony Stark immediately.

Little Pepper's heart instantly rose to her throat, she couldn't believe her eyes and ears.

That Obadiah turned out to be the mastermind behind all these conspiracies.

She tried to calm her heartbeat, quickly downloaded the video and the information about the weapons sales order to her device, then carefully logged out of the system and left the office.

Just then, Obadiah returned to the office.

She pretended to be calm and covered up the incident skillfully. However, Obadiah noticed something was wrong. Although he did not witness it directly, his keen intuition told him that someone had tampered with his computer.

After a quick check, he confirmed the fact that the data had been downloaded.

At this moment, he knew that he was standing on the edge of a cliff, and any wrong step would lead to his downfall.

Obadiah immediately activated the emergency plan and blocked the signal of the entire building to ensure that Pepper could not pass the information to Tony.

At the same time, he quickly contacted his men and ordered them to intercept Pepper at all costs and take back the evidence that could destroy him.

He himself drove to Tony's villa.

Tony was waiting for Pepper to come back and was completely unaware of the lab door opening silently and the familiar yet strange figure that walked in afterwards.

Obadiah approached slowly with steady steps.

There was a barely perceptible smile on his face, a complex expression that was a mixture of pride and the pleasure of revenge.

As a shareholder in Stark Industries, Obadiah had high enough authority that Jarvis, Tony's artificial intelligence assistant, not only failed to recognize his threat, but also acquiesced to his entry without giving Tony any warning.

There was a subtle sense of tension in the air until a sudden crackling sound, like electromagnetic interference, broke the silence.

To Tony, this sound was like the foreboding of waking up from a nightmare. Immediately afterwards, an invisible force seemed to surge in from all directions, tightly binding his body.

His muscles were tense, and the veins on his forehead bulged like vines. Several blood vessels stood out under his skin, and the color quickly changed from normal skin color to deep red, as if the blood in his body was boiling at this moment.

Tony Stark felt like he was struck by lightning, his whole body was paralyzed and he couldn't move.

His eyes first flashed with disbelief, followed by shock, anger, despair, and deep helplessness. These complex emotions intertwined in his heart, like the sea in a storm, with turbulent waves.

"Hey, Tony, relax..."

Obadiah's voice sounded in his ears, with a gentleness that was almost mocking.

He slowly approached Tony, his smug smile gradually enlarged in Tony's sight, and the nerve paralyzer in his hand was gently raised to show Tony.

It was a small and exquisite device that emitted a faint blue light, and it was the one that made the creepy crackling sound before.

"You still remember this thing, right?"

Obadiah's tone was relaxed, as if he was sharing a forgotten story with an old friend. "It's a pity that the government didn't approve its production back then. But to be honest, its temporary paralysis function is still quite practical, at least for me now."

Tony's eyes stayed on the paralyzer for a moment, then he turned to Obadiah with difficulty, his eyes full of anger and unwillingness. He tried to speak, but only a faint gurgling sound came out of his throat, and he was completely unable to form any words.

Obadiah didn't seem to care as he pulled a sophisticated tool box from his pocket.

He gently touched the small Ark reactor on Tony's chest.
