1: Grab Tony Stark at the start

“Brain Storage: The only difference is the fan-made setting. Don't argue; if you do, you're right.”

“Drive faster!”

Early in the morning, in a Los Santos junkyard.

An old man, wearing a cleaner's uniform, sat in the passenger seat of a garbage truck, urging the driver.

Without needing a reminder, Joa, who had been in Los Santos for half a year, knew exactly what he needed to do.

The Diamond Casino Heist from GTA V, he had played it countless times in the game in his previous life.

However, this time, it was a little different.

Because what Joa was going to rob this time wasn't the Diamond Casino, but…

Stark!

That's right, the Tony Stark from the Marvel superhero movies before he transmigrated, played by Robert Downey Jr., the arms dealer, famous playboy, and future Iron Man.

Yes, he was going to rob him.

It sounded like a fantasy.

And in reality, it truly was a fantasy.

Given Tony Stark's social status and wealth.

Outside, countless people had their eyes on him, wanting to rob him, but none had ever succeeded.

The countless failed precedents had caused almost all criminals to abandon the idea of robbing Stark.

Now, any normal person wouldn't even think of robbing Stark.

But Joa wasn't a normal person.

He was a transmigrator, a transmigrator with a system.

【Great Villain System】

【Pending Activation (Activation Condition: Rob Tony Stark's latest weapon prototype.)】

【To assist the Host in completing the mission, all of the Host's attributes have been raised to the maximum for ordinary humans.】

【Stamina: Level 5, Triathlon Athlete.】

【Strength: Level 5, Bodybuilder.】

【Shooting: Level 5, Sharpshooter.】

【Stealth: Level 5, Ninja.】

【Flying: Level 5, Ace Pilot.】

【Driving: Level 5, Professional Race Car Driver.】

【Mental State: Normal.】

【Note: This is a temporary boost. If the mission fails, the Host's physical fitness will slowly decline to its original state, and the system will unbind.】

【If the mission succeeds, attributes will be solidified, the Newbie Pack (Newbie Gift Pack) will open, and assets: Merryweather Security Consulting. (Private Armed Forces)】

As soon as Joa thought about successfully stealing Stark's latest weapon, he would gain Merryweather, an mercenary organization that was almost global, except for a certain mysterious Eastern Power, his heart couldn't help but feel excited.

That was Merryweather, which cooperated with almost every developed government, and it would be his own private armed force.

In this perilous Marvel Universe, perhaps Merryweather wouldn't be of much use against various supernatural powers and alien invasions.

But it was more than enough to solve worldly troubles.

‘Calm down! I’ve been preparing for half a year, I can definitely succeed.’

Driving the garbage truck, Joa slowly drove with the old man in the passenger seat to the trash cans near the back door of Stark Tower.

Joa had worked as a cleaner before and had scouted Stark Tower.

Stark Industries' latest weapon prototype was currently on display in the building's weapons exhibition hall, attracting the attention of various warlords and Terrorists from the Middle East.

“Hurry! Start the operation, we only have five minutes!”

After parking the car, Joa pulled out a fully modified handgun from his lower back, equipped with a silencer, extended magazine, and scope.

After a careful check to confirm the bullet was chambered.

Joa put the handgun back into the system space, then immediately opened the door with his recruited teammate, the old man, and got out of the car, heading to the back of the garbage truck.

Holding his breath.

The two of them each picked up two black garbage bags from the foul-smelling, garbage-filled truck bed.

Carefully avoiding the surveillance cameras, they placed the garbage at the back and side doors.

As soon as the garbage landed.

Countless cockroaches from the black bags scattered.

Most of them squeezed through the cracks of the back and side doors and entered Stark Tower.

Fearing there weren't enough cockroaches, Joa and the old man ran back and forth twice.

Exactly five minutes had passed.

“Perfect timing.”

Throwing the garbage back into the truck bed.

Joa and the old man then transformed into ordinary garbage collectors, beginning their regular work.

After emptying all the trash cans in Stark Tower and completing their work.

Joa slowly drove the garbage truck away.

Through the car window, he saw a security guard passing by, yawning and looking hungover, heading towards the back door.

A smile tugged at Joa's lips.

‘That’s right, the more negligent, the better.’

Without anyone noticing.

They had completed the final step of their preparations.

Now, they just needed to wait for the management inside Stark Tower to call an exterminator.

After driving the truck back to the junkyard.

The two of them resigned from their garbage cleaning jobs, which they had held for several months, citing feeling unwell.

······

Los Santos.

In a dilapidated apartment building just one street away from the notorious Hell's Kitchen.

“Avi, it’s up to you now.”

After changing clothes and showering, Joa came to the living room and looked solemnly at Avi, the very expensive hacker he had hired.

“Don’t worry, it’s just intercepting and rerouting a call from a department manager’s personal phone in Stark Tower to an exterminator. Absolutely no problem.”

Upon hearing this, Joa nodded, sat down in a nearby chair, closed his eyes, and waited silently.

The old man, the gunman, was Joa’s first teammate, whose name he didn’t know.

The fully modified, low-quality silenced pistol he now held was provided by him.

Avi, the expensive hacker, only needed to intercept and reroute calls from Stark Tower to the exterminator, and handle encrypted communications during the robbery.

Finally, there was a driver who had never shown his face.

Calling him a driver was misleading; he was actually an intelligence dealer. He provided reliable and untraceable vehicle information, and Joa was responsible for stealing them.

For that getaway vehicle, Joa had to fight an unknown gang for a while before he got his hands on the car.

During the escape, he even had a random match on the highway with the Los Santos police.

Fortunately, the car whose information the driver provided was top-notch in performance, directly outrunning the Dodge Chargers driven by the Los Santos police, leaving them unable to even see his taillights.

After getting off the highway, Joa spent some time in the city, shaking off the TV stations and police Little Bull helicopters, disappearing from everyone's sight, successfully losing his wanted level.

Afterward, he went to Los Santos Customs for repairs, modifications, and a new paint job and livery for the car.

Only after it was completely unrecognizable did he park the car near Stark Tower and hide it.

Recalling the events of the past six months since transmigrating to the Marvel Universe, Joa felt as if a lifetime had passed.

Oh, no, it literally was a different World.

‘Before transmigrating, I was clearly a good person, but in just half a year, I’ve been fighting gangs and preparing for robberies.’

‘Environment truly can change a person.’

‘Phew, no matter what I become, it’s all for survival in this perilous World.’

‘Anyway, I’m only harming America, so there’s absolutely no psychological burden.’

With that thought, the trace of melancholy in Joa’s heart immediately disappeared.

He even felt that just robbing Stark wasn't enough.

Things like the Union Depository and the Pacific Standard Bank could also be robbed.

They say America has a lot of gold reserves, so if he got some and sent it all to the Eastern Power to exchange for dollars, wouldn't that be a win-win?

Gold couldn't be spent anyway, so sending it to the Eastern Power would allow him to exchange it for those useless dollar foreign exchange reserves from the Eastern Power.

Each getting what they needed, truly a massive win.
