I Became Spider-Man's Cousin in Anime Crossover

Chapter 426 Peter Goes All Out

"Die! You monsters—!!!"

"What...danger! Get out of the way!"

Seeing that after he shouted loudly, the Iron Monger not only did not stop, but instead roared and aimed the Gatling gun, which had just finished reloading, back at him and Tony, Peter knew something was wrong and quickly shouted a warning.

Fortunately, after learning his lesson, Tony kept a close eye on Iron Monger's actions.

Therefore, the moment the Iron Monger launched its attack, Tony and Peter quickly retreated from their original positions, one on the left and one on the right.

The armor-piercing rounds fired by the Iron Monger hit a huge electronic GG sign of a shop not far behind.

The GG sign was instantly torn apart and shattered by the metal storm, revealing its internal structure with constantly flashing electric arcs.

"It now completely sees us as monsters!"

Meanwhile, completely disregarding the consequences of "Aihara Dragon's Fury," Tony, in order to minimize energy consumption, was using the surrounding buildings as shields to dodge the Iron Monger's furious barrage as much as possible. At the same time, he reminded Peter based on the data scanned by Jarvis.

"Either his consciousness has been completely manipulated, or... our voices, even our appearance, have been maliciously distorted!"

Peter realized this as well, and while dodging, he had Justice constantly check the functions of the suit in order to find a way to break the deadlock.

Soon, a dark red option popped up in front of Peter and Tony.

Along with Justice's neutral, electronically synthesized voice, it quickly echoed in their ears.

"Beta Version - Eight-Point Light Wheel Protocol..."

"This protocol will provide users with a cutting module for high-frequency oscillating energy. By overloading the energy core to its limits, it will simulate the unique properties of magic as much as possible. Theoretically, it can cut through high-dimensional energy structures and reinforced matter, and through direct contact, achieve the effect of breaking magic with force."

"WARNING: This protocol is in the testing phase. Due to limitations in the current suit's performance, the energy output environment is extremely unstable. Remote release is recommended. Close-range explosion carries a high risk of injury. For safety reasons, it is recommended to use it only once until the suit is repaired."

"You really did have a backup plan, Riley... But what the heck is this 'Eight-Point Light Wheel'?!"

Tony's lips twitched noticeably beneath his visor.

Based on his unconditional trust in Riley, he was certain that the hidden attack methods Riley provided would be able to threaten the Iron Monger, who was now protected by magic.

But upon hearing the familiar-sounding name, Tony couldn't help but complain.

"That kid Riley... just how much does he love those old tokusatsu shows? I'm definitely going to ask him next time we meet if he's secretly working on a 'Ultraman' transformation device in the lab, or maybe he's designing me an armor set with a 'Specium Ray' emitter? Also, I actually wanted to complain from the beginning... Justice and Cosmos, those two AIs, were their names inspired by that thing? Is he planning to merge those two AIs and create Reggie...?!"

"Ahem, there's no time for that now, Tony. The important thing is, we finally have a countermeasure!"

Upon hearing Tony's complaints, Peter, Riley's brother, couldn't help but feel embarrassed and awkward.

Before Tony could finish speaking, Peter quickly changed the subject and made a serious suggestion.

"Anyway, this might be useful! But according to the instructions, it needs some time to charge... Here's what we'll do: I'll take care of drawing Iron Monger's attention. You stay here and be ready to launch the Eight... High-Frequency Oscillating Energy Cutting!"

"Wait, how can that be? Your injuries haven't healed yet, let me..."

"This is the best option, Tony. Time is running out; we have no other choice."

Peter interrupted him, his tone resolute.

"My spider-sense should be able to issue early warnings of those magical attacks that are difficult to detect with the naked eye, reducing the possibility of being ambushed and minimizing the risk of danger. Therefore, I am the most suitable candidate. Moreover, after you finish charging, you will need to keep a close eye on the Iron Monger's movements, looking for the best opportunity to strike. And you only have one chance to act, so the pressure you bear is not much lighter than mine!"

Peter's words made Tony hesitate to speak.

He watched as the nanosuit automatically repaired itself, gradually concealing the shocking wounds on Peter's body.

He looked down again at the portal that was gradually taking shape, from which the faint roars of monsters could be heard. He also looked at the onlookers at the edge of the plaza, who, believing the crisis was over, had ignored police warnings and insisted on approaching the Iron Monger, resulting in their current inability to evacuate the danger zone.

Reason told him that Peter was right.

But emotionally, how could he just stand by and watch a minor put himself in danger?

"...Damn it! This shitty world! You better be careful, Spider-Man, and don't forget, Riley's waiting for you to come home!"

Tony finally cursed under his breath, unusually swearing in front of Peter, squeezing out the words he least wanted to say through gritted teeth.

"Jarvis, access the 'Eight-Point Light Wheel' protocol data and begin charging and preheating. All non-essential systems on Mark 2 are offline; all energy is directed to the simulated magic modulator and shoulder-mounted remote launch unit. Calculate the optimal long-range launch trajectory to ensure maximum range and accuracy, while maintaining a safe distance!"

"Don't worry! I'll be careful! If all else fails, I have a backup plan!"

Seeing that Tony chose to compromise, Peter responded earnestly, focusing all his energy on pushing the "Prince's" flight capabilities to their limit.

The pale golden aura unique to the "Prince" appeared at this moment and quickly became solid and dazzling, as if a flowing film of light covered Peter's body.

There was no roar of thrusters, but the air itself emitted a strained hum.

The next second, Peter's entire figure turned into a blurry afterimage, plunging straight down towards the Iron Monger in the center of the square below!

"boom--!!!"

A deafening sonic boom exploded over Times Square!

The air was compressed and torn apart by extreme speed, and a milky white, cone-shaped shock cloud, visible to the naked eye, suddenly expanded behind Peter. Then, one clear, stable Mach ring after another appeared like a lasso, one after another, along the trajectory of that afterimage!

This is the ultimate speed that defies conventional physical acceleration processes, purely due to the transfer of the "Prince's" functions!

And it is precisely because of this that, under the public eye, the "Crown Prince's" abilities were exposed...

The descriptions and legends about "Spider-Man" are destined to become more and more exaggerated and terrifying!

But these things were clearly no longer within Max's considerations.

Within the field of vision, the instant Peter disappeared, the Iron Monger's high-precision sensors didn't even have time to lock onto Peter's movement trajectory before Peter's figure, like a ghost, had already approached to the upper diagonal, less than fifty meters away!

The intense wind pressure arrived first, causing the rubble and dust on the ground around the Iron Monger to churn wildly. Even the magical defensive barrier, which was previously barely visible to the naked eye, rippled violently.

"What kind of monster is this? It has no wings, yet it can fly so fast?!"

Inside the armor, Max, who was under magical control, was clearly taken aback by this sudden and far more rapid attack than before.

But he was immediately stimulated by the even stronger attack he was about to face head-on from the "elite monster," and the surge of adrenaline made him extremely excited, and he shouted loudly, eager to try.

"Come on, monster! I'm not afraid of you!"

"I am New York City's last hope, I will save the world!"

"I am, The Flash—!!!"
