Therefore, differences in thinking are inevitable.
"If that guy's location is correct, we're about a 20-minute drive from Ai Haibara's location."
On the speedboat, Iron Man Zhuge Cong calculated the distance and said...
"But we still need to figure out the vice president's situation, right?"
[Hachiman Hikigaya said he didn't know what role the vice president played in this matter, nor whether what Treve said about the vice president was true.]
"That's right, so guess who I'm calling right now."
"That's right, Vice President."
[Iron Man Zhuge Cong said that when faced with a problem, Iron Man Zhuge Cong chooses to confront it directly and calls the Vice President.]
【“谢谢。”】
At this time, the Vice President was still at a gathering at home. After greeting the guests, he also answered the phone with Iron Man, Zhuge Cong.
【"Hello."】
"I am Zhuge Cong."
"Welcome back to the mortal realm, Zhuge Cong."
"We have reason to believe that you may be involved in Lord Shadow's attack."
"We need to move you to a safe location as soon as possible."
"Mr. Zhuge Cong, I'm about to enjoy honey-glazed ham under the protection of elite agents."
"The President and Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya were on Air Force One."
"I believe we will all be safe."
"We are all safe."
Zenitsu Gasai felt that the best joke he had ever heard was the vice president saying that we were all safe.
Keep in mind that Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya was on the speedboat with Iron Man Zhuge Cong, so the Vice President might be safe, but the President's safety is uncertain.
[When Iron Man Zhuge Cong heard the Vice President say that we were all safe, and when Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya was on Air Force One with the President, he directly handed his phone to Hachiman Hikigaya.]
"Sir, I am Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya."
The Vice President's expression changed upon hearing Hachiman Hikigaya's voice; his previous ease vanished, replaced by a serious expression.
"They plan to use the Steel Patriot as a Trojan horse to find a way to get rid of the president."
"We need to warn the crew immediately."
"Okay, I'll have the security personnel move out immediately."
"If necessary, F-22 fighter jets can be in position within 30 seconds."
"Thank you for reminding me, Colonel Hachiman."
After listening to Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya's report, the Vice President also realized the seriousness of the situation.
"Hachiman Hikigaya and Zhuge Cong have ended their call."
"Is everything alright, sir?"
[Immediately after the Vice President hung up on Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya, his secretary came to inquire about the matter.]
"Absolutely not."
The Vice President made no mention of Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya's report, instead replying as if nothing had happened, and then handed his phone to his secretary.
"The Vice President is also their mole!"
"Then, then they're doomed!"
Zenitsu Gasai thought pessimistically.
"Not necessarily. Maybe it's the Vice President who doesn't want things to escalate, right?"
Tanjiro Dumon spoke up from the side, but was quickly proven wrong.
"I love you, baby."
The vice president walked to his wife's side and gently kissed his daughter's forehead. It was clear his daughter was disabled; she was missing her right leg, which should have been both healthy.
"So, is the Vice President pinning his hopes on the self-healing ability of the Extremis virus to restore his daughter's healthy legs?"
"It must be Orochimaru's doing."
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka looked at the screen showing the vice president's daughter missing a leg, and he understood why the vice president had kept it a secret, and also why the vice president was on their side.
It turns out that Orochimaru had exploited their weakness.
"First the father, and then the vice president?"
Ayanokouji Kiyotaka suddenly thought of his biological father, and he was certain that if it were his own father...
I doubt they would risk losing their vice-presidential position by doing something like that.
"I won't either."
[The president was walking on the red carpet, preparing to board his plane, when suddenly a roar came from the sky, and the Steel Patriot made its dazzling appearance.]
[Then the Iron Patriots followed the president to register, and just as they had expected, no one suspected anything throughout the process.]
"Colonel Hachiman Hikigaya, it's so good to have you here."
"I feel much safer now."
The President looked at the Steel Patriot and bowed, saying...
The Steel Patriot didn't reply, but instead gave a military salute. After all, speaking would reveal that the pilot inside the Steel Patriot wasn't Hachiman Hikigaya.
[Then the President boarded the plane along with the Iron Patriot.]
"Hachiman, you're really something."
Yukino Yukino watched as the president saluted the Steel Patriots on the screen and said...
While it may have been out of politeness, it undoubtedly demonstrated the prestige of Hachiman Hikigaya's identity.
With his status as a military colonel and the added title of "Iron Patriot," he was practically a celebrity.
"However, the best identity is still that of an Avenger."
"We need to make a decision."
"We can only save one of them: the President or Ai Haibara."
[On the speedboat, Hachiman Hikigaya spoke to Iron Man, Zhuge Cong.]
506: Delivering packages with war machines
[The President or Ai Haibara? One is Iron Man Zhuge Cong's lover, and the other seems to be a very influential person.]
"We didn't have time to save them both."
[Hachiman Hikigaya's words caused Iron Man Zhuge Cong to fall silent for a moment, then Jarvis's voice broke the silence.]
"Sir, there's been a new development in Malibu."
Iron Man Zhuge Cong also received the information Jarvis had detected about Orochimaru and his group's belongings on Marif's side.
"The crane has finally arrived at the scene."
"The basement entrance is being cleared."
"How's my battle suit doing?"
[As Iron Man Zhuge Cong inquired, Jarvis's answer also satisfied him quite a bit.]
"The armor's energy has reached 92%."
"It's alright, it's usable enough."
[Iron Man, Zhuge Cong, unplugged the charging cable from the chest of his armor.]
"I thought Iron Man Zhuge Cong charged at Harry's house."
"If it really was charged at Harry's house, and it reached 92%, I can't even imagine how terrifying Harry's electricity bill will be this month."
Saitama is a very frugal person, and even after joining the Light Curtain organization, he can still receive a considerable salary every month.
However, Saitama retained his frugal habits, so when he saw Jarvis, the AI of Iron Man Zhuge Cong, say that the battery was charged to 92%, he subconsciously thought that it was being charged at Harry's house.
It's important to understand that Iron Man Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor isn't some electric toy that only requires a little bit of power; it needs a massive amount of electricity to function.
"However, can this speedboat charge Iron Man Zhuge Cong's Iron Man armor to 92%?"
Saitama asked curiously.
"So, that's why Iron Man Zhuge Cong said to just make do with what he has."
"It's similar to the difference between illusion and reality. Iron Man Zhuge Cong was said to be 92% charged on the speedboat, but in reality, he wasn't actually 92% charged."
Genos began his analysis.
"That makes sense."
