296 Chapter 295: Annoying Guy

After instructing Kakashi, Charles couldn't suppress his desire for the Rasengan and once again entered the system space.

In the training ground of the system space, Charles carefully felt the Rasengan version of Naruto.

He summoned a shadow clone, concentrated his chakra in his hand, continuously flowed it in irregular directions, and compressed it. The shadow clone assisted on the side, helping to create a chakra ball the size of a palm without any attribute.

Looking at the Rasengan in his hand, Charles smashed it towards the wall in front of him.

Boom!

The entire wall of the training ground collapsed instantly. Feeling the power of the Rasengan, Charles nodded in satisfaction.

Then, he began to disassemble it step by step. He wanted to master this technique with a single hand, without relying on a shadow clone for stability.

With a clear idea in mind, Charles began to implement it, attempting to gradually grasp this ninjutsu.

...

On the other side-

Tony was practicing combat with Happy in the gym at the mansion.

At this moment, Pepper Potts walked in and said to Tony, "Come over, the lawyer is here. Sign some documents."

Tony, while throwing punches at Happy, said, "I'm currently beating Happy."

Happy complained, "What move is this?"

"This is called mixed martial arts, it's just becoming popular recently."

Happy retorted, "This is called dirty boxing, it's been popular for a long time."

Ignoring Happy's words, Tony urged, "Come on, hurry up!"

At this moment, Natasha walked in, wearing a professional urban outfit. Instantly, she attracted Happy's attention.

Tony, noticing Happy's strange look, turned around to see Natasha coming in.

Pepper Potts said, "I guarantee this is the only time. Please transfer your company to me."

Natasha held the documents, walked up to Pepper Potts, and opened them, saying, "Please sign with your initials."

Pepper Potts took the pen and began to sign on the document.

Meanwhile, Tony stared motionless at Natasha as Happy lightly tapped Tony's head from behind. Provocatively, he said, "Lesson one, never take your eyes off."

Tony gave Happy a kick to the stomach, sending him back into the pillar of the ring.

Happy groaned in pain, attracting Natasha's attention.

Tony, holding a small hammer, knocked the bell hanging on the ring and pointed at Natasha. "I'm done. What's your name, Miss?"

"Natalia Romanova."

Tony waved. "Come up, please. Get on the ring."

Pepper Potts said reluctantly, "No, you don't really want her to come up and fight you, do you?"

"The judge has the final say."

Natasha whispered to Pepper Potts, "I am the judge. It's okay."

Pepper Potts apologized, "I'm sorry. Tony is a bit weird."

Natasha walked onto the ring.

Natasha walked onto the platform, showcasing her graceful figure. Tony, unable to take his eyes off her, stared at her. After a few seconds of mutual eye contact, Tony asked in confusion, "What's the matter?"

Natasha remained silent and continued to observe Tony. Seeing this, Tony turned to Happy, who was beside him, and said, "Can you teach her a lesson?"

"No problem!"

After getting a positive response from Happy, Tony stepped down from the platform and sat next to Pepper Potts.

"Pepper."

"What?"

"Who is she?"

"She's from the legal department. If you keep staring at her like that, you might get into a lawsuit."

Tony turned to Pepper Potts and then said, "I need a new assistant."

Pepper Potts didn't pay much attention and looked at her phone, answering, "I have three promising candidates. Wait until you interview them."

Tony, looking at Natalia on the boxing ring, replied, "I don't have time for interviews. I need one now, and I think she's the one."

Pepper Potts directly refused, "No!"

On the boxing ring-

Happy looked at the girl in front of him and asked, "Have you ever fought?"

Natasha, using the alias Natalia, smiled and replied, "Yes!"

Happy continued, "Like kickboxing, body shaping exercises, yoga, and the like?"

Tony, sitting on the sofa, asked, "How do you spell her name?"

"Natalia Romanova!"

Tony clapped his hands, waking up the screen on the table beside him. It was Tony's small table, which also served as a computer screen.

Seeing Tony's actions, Pepper Potts said in surprise, "Are you going to search for her on the internet?"

Tony operated the computer while saying, "You thought I was just staring at her."

Soon, Natalia's personal information appeared on the screen. Looking at her photo and personal information, Tony exclaimed, "Wow, she's amazing."

While Tony was looking at the information, he mumbled, "Great, great, really good."

Pepper Potts sighed, "You're so boring."

"She is fluent in French, Italian, and Latin."

Tony turned to Pepper Potts, "Who speaks Latin?"

"No one. Some people can read and write Latin, but no one speaks it."

At this point, Tony pulled out a photo of Natalia, and after looking at it, he asked Pepper Potts, "Did she model in Tokyo?"

"She did."

"I need her; she has it all."

Their conversation attracted Natasha's attention, and she turned to look. Happy spoke, "First rule, never take your eyes off your opponent."

As soon as he finished speaking, Happy directly attacked, but Natasha grabbed his arm, flipped over, and instantly brought him down.

Happy's loud fall attracted Tony and Pepper Potts, who were sitting on the sofa, to exclaim.

"Oh my God!"

"Happy!"

Tony walked over, picked up a small hammer, and knocked on the bell on the side of the ring a few times.

"It looks like a technical knockdown."

Happy defended himself, "I just slipped."

At this point, Natasha descended from the ring, put on her shoes, and addressed Tony, "I need your 'impression.'"

"The 'impression' you left on me is that you are very steady and mature."

Natasha smiled and said, "I mean I need to 'imprint' your fingerprint."

"I see."

With that, Natasha took out a document from the side and opened it in front of Tony. Tony then pressed his fingers on the designated fingerprint area.

Pepper Potts walked over, "How is it going?"

While imprinting his fingerprint, Tony said, "Not bad, quickly done."

Pointing at the document, Tony told Pepper Potts, "Now you're the boss."

Natasha closed the document, looked at Tony, and said, "Anything else, Mr. Stark?"

"Yes!"

Pepper Potts intervened, "No, Miss Natalia, thank you."

Natasha took the document and left directly.

Watching Natasha walk away, Tony spoke again, "I want this one."

"No!"

...

Time flew, and three days passed.

In these three days, Charles earned 300 Ninja Pearls through the system check-in (double rewards for VIP7 or higher users, Ninja Pearls +300), 50 delicious ramen bowls, and 50 gold coins (double rewards for VIP8 or higher users, gold coins +50).

Apart from check-in rewards, Yamato and Uchiha Itachi completed six C-rank missions in these three days.

They truly lived up to being ANBU ninjas; their efficiency in completing missions was significantly higher.

Ding! Completed C-rank mission:

Received 500 prestige x6.

Received 50,000 copper coins x6.

Received 1 ordinary treasure chest x6.

During these three days, Charles had been practicing the Rasengan. With the concerted efforts of numerous shadow clones, he finally mastered the one-handed use of the Rasengan without the need for shadow clone assistance.

The intense training almost caused the magical wood clones from the magical world to dissipate, but Charles promptly replenished it with chakra.

As for the newly acquired Wind Release and Water Release, Charles hadn't had a chance to practice them yet.

...

Monaco-

Charles sat in the car, resting with his eyes closed. He hadn't rested in the past few days. Tsunade was sitting beside him, originally planning to bring Ginny along, but Ginny was responsible for the orphanage's admissions and didn't come.

Under the escort of motorcycle police, Tony and Charles's car stopped at the entrance of the "Paris Hotel" in Monaco.

Tony, with Pepper and Happy, got out of the car first. Cheers immediately erupted around them. Tsunade patted Charles on the shoulder.

"We've arrived."

Charles stretched and yawned, "Finally!"

"John, Tsunade, let's get off too."

Then, the three of them got out of the Rolls-Royce. The cheering from the crowd resumed.

Entering the hotel, Tony spoke to Pepper Potts, "This is Europe. No matter what happens, just go with the flow."

Pepper Potts looked puzzled, "Go with the flow? Go with the flow of what, Mr. Stark?"

Tony snapped his fingers and shouted at the woman in red, "Hey!"

Natasha, with a smile on her face, responded, "Has the journey been smooth, Mr. Stark?"

"Very good."

"I'm really glad to see you."

While the two were chatting, Charles, with Tsunade and John, walked in.

Upon entering the hotel, the manager of the Monaco Continental Hotel, Casablanca, immediately approached Charles respectfully, bowing, "Welcome, Lord Charles!"

Charles nodded at the hotel manager, "Are you also participating in the racing competition?"

Casablanca shook his head, "I'm not interested in racing. I came here mainly to follow your orders. If you have any needs, feel free to instruct me."

Charles nodded again, not saying anything.

At this moment, Pepper Potts whispered to Tony, "When did you hire her?"

Tony replied, "It's all your doing."

"What did I force you to do?"

Just as the two were about to argue, Charles came over and patted Tony on the shoulder.

"Hey, guys, what are you talking about?"

Pepper Potts turned around, smiling, "Mr. Charles!"

Tony, seeing Tsunade behind Charles, immediately said, "Pepper, this is the beauty, it's her."

Tony pointed to his chest. Although he didn't say it explicitly, Pepper Potts understood.

Pepper Potts walked up to Tsunade, shook her hands, and said, "Thank you, really thank you for your help."

Tsunade, looking at Pepper Potts's enthusiasm, smiled and said, "It's all part of the mission. It's what I should do."

"Thank you for helping out. You've been a great help."

"Also, oh my, your skin is really good, and this bright blonde hair."

"Oh my, how do you take care of it? Teach me!"

Under Pepper Potts' compliments, Tsunade started chatting with her, but the corner of her eye never left Charles.

Tony draped his arm over Charles's shoulder, "Hey, buddy, you arrived just in time."

"It was really dangerous just now."

Tony pointed at Natasha and said, "This is my newly recruited secretary. How about it, pretty, right?"

At this moment, Natasha wore a professional smile on her face, looking at Tony and Charles, but she didn't say anything.

Charles looked at the S.H.I.E.L.D. agent and then at Tony, laughing, "Tony, if you can keep her by your side, that would be a real skill."

"She's a talent."

Tony looked at Charles with some surprise, "You know her?"

"Of course, don't you?"

"Of course, she is my secretary. How could I not know her?"

Seeing that Tony still hadn't caught on, Charles didn't reveal it on the spot. Instead, he said, "Where are our seats?"

"Mr. Stark, Mr. Charles, your seats are over here. This table is reserved for us."

Natasha, standing beside them, gestured to the location.

Charles and Tony nodded and sat directly at the table.

"Charles, won't you reconsider and join me in driving a race car? The feeling is really different. Won't you give it a try?"

"Tony, I'm not interested in racing. The speed is too slow for me..."

With Charles's abnormal physical fitness, Tony shook his head. "Buddy, you're missing out on some fun."

At this point, Justin Hammer, inside the hotel, also noticed Charles and Tony. Holding a wine glass, he walked over.

"Tony, Charles."

"Hey, didn't expect to run into you here."

"How have you guys been?"

Looking at Justin Hammer approaching, Tony frowned and said to Charles, "This is really an annoying guy."

Then Tony greeted Justin Hammer, "How are you?"
