[solemn music]
It still amazes me
that you turned the Makluan Temple
into your state-of-the-art base of operations.
I learned to appreciate a few of your history lessons.
All the lectures about the rings and ancient technology.
It just seemed... right.
Well, it's darn impressive.
Lotta good it's doing me now.
After all we've been through,
Mandarin still got all ten Makluan Rings.
Look, this isn't over yet.
-Come on, son, cheer up. -Why?
For starters, it' s your 18th birthday today.
With all that happened, I've barely thought about it.
We wanted to surprise you
with a cake shaped like your helmet.
But we figured you wouldn't be in the mood to celebrate.
None of us are.
Not with Gene out there. Now all we can do is wait.
[alarm signal]
We don't have to wait!
-Does all this mean... -Gene's back.
[lightning striking]
[vortex sizzling]
[worried chatter]
Citizens of the world,
I am the mighty, the one, the true Mandarin!
This momentous day, I pledge to you
I shall unite the entire world!
I will bring about an end to all poverty, hunger,
and war and create everlasting peace!
That doesn't sound like Gene.
Maybe we were wrong.
Maybe he really does intend to use the rings for good!
And in return, humanity shall kneel down
and accept me as the Great Khan of the world!
Now that sounds like Gene.
I am here to bring all of mankind
into a bold and glorious new era!
But let there be no doubt.
Any who dare challenge my rule will face my wrath!
[energy blast]
This is all my fault!
If only I could've stopped Gene from getting the rings.
I won't let this happen.
I will end this!
Tony, I'm right there with you, man.
But the last time we faced him, he nearly wiped us out.
And now he's capable of destroying the world!
I'm not gonna just stand here. He has to be stopped!
[electronic signals]
[suspenseful music]
[metal clinking]
Before you going flying off,
I think I might offer a suggestion.
Despite their seemingly magical nature,
the rings are actually
an extremely advanced form of technology.
And like all forms of technology,
they can be susceptible to error.
That's the weapon you used against him in China!
Let's armor up with this bad boy and take Mandarin down!
We can't. Mandarin destroyed the prototype
and that took weeks to build.
But Tony, if you and I take time to examine the data,
we can find a way to expand the disrupter's range.
He's about to bring the world to its knees.
Time is something we don't have.
Listen, you two don't have to do this.
Yes, we do. We're all in this... together.
No matter what.
[epic music]
This is insane!
Against the power of all ten rings,
you don't stand a chance.
Dad, this is who I am. I have to do this.
I'm Iron Man.
This is General Nick Fury of SHIELD!
Stand down and surrender yourself!
You were warned
of the consequences for defiance!
Mandroids, capture and contain!
Heed my words! A better tomorrow will begin...
by eradicating the engines of destruction!
Hill! Launch Wave 2!
Your resistance is futile!
-Resist this! -Ah!
You think you have power? Mandarin is power!
That can't be good.
Aaah!
[effort grunt]
General Fury, come in! Nick!
General Fury, come in! Agent Romanoff, come in!
AGENT #1: Agent Hill, awaiting your orders.
HILL: Full speed ahead!
Target all laser cannons on Mandarin!
AGENT #1: Targets locked!
Enough!
What in the world?
Wait... I'm picking up traces of zero-point dark matter!
Oh no.
We're in the Negative Zone.
This is a merciful display of the power I will unleash
upon any who dare disrespect my--
Aaah!
Man, am I ever tired of hearing
"I rule this" or "I'm all-powerful!"
Blah blah blah!
Gene! Will you please stop this!?
[effort grunts]
Give it up, Gene!
Learn to listen!
Now you shall suffer!
[pain yells]
Wait! This doesn't make any sense!
This has to be a mistake. Unless...
It's not coming from Mandarin.
Well, that could've gone better.
Bow down to the might of the Mandarin!
None can challenge my rule!
Huh?
[pain yell]
I think you might have a challenger.
[tense music]
I hope they're the good guys,
'cause a glue arrow won't take care of this one.
What is that thing?
It doesn't look like the SHIELD Helicarrier 2.0.
MR. STARK: Tony, do you read me?
Hum... kinda busy right now dad.
The Makluan Energy readings goes haywire
ever since the alien craft
- entered the atmosphere! - What!?
I looked at the videos and I see what look like...
Makluan symbols!
Gene... what have you done?
All around the world, people talk about
the sighting of an alien spaceship above New York City!
Both White House and U.N. officials
say we had no contact since their arrival,
which happened not long after the Mandarin
issued a proclamation for world domination.
We'll provide updates as they happen.
W'Kabi, meet me in Strategic Operations for a full briefing.
and ready the Quin jet. It seems the prophecies are true.
This could be the End of the World.
This cannot be happening!
FURY: Iron Man!
General Fury! Black Widow! You're alive!
We ejected just before impact.
Call in reinforcements.
All communications with the Helicarrier are down.
We're on our own.
We called FBI and law enforcement to be ready.
Ready for what?
Full-scale invasion.
But for now, we need to gather intel.
We might be able to help with that.
Ah!
What is the meaning of all this?
Do you know who you're dealing with?!
By decree of the Makluan Overlord,
you are hereby ordered
to relinquish the Ten Rings of Power.
[mocking laughter]
You'll just have to take them!
Uh!
Huh?
Attack!
[pain grunts]
Yield and relinquish the rings!
The rings are mine by birthright,
and I say never!
OVERLORD: Enough!
Impossible!
Now, half-breed, kneel before me!
[grunt]
You may have Makluan blood,
but you are not worthy to bear the rings,
for only the purest of Makluans can wield their true power!
Come to me.
No...
BLACK WIDOW: But why? After all this time?
My guess? Once Mandarin assembled all ten rings,
they must've signaled the aliens.
You know how to fight them?
We've got somebody on it.
[chuckle] I've got a pretty good idea who.
Guys, I'm getting something.
RESCUE: You know how to say
"nice to meet you" in Makluan?
WAR MACHINE: I got a bad feeling about-- Ah!
[effort grunt]
-They're breaking formation! -And coming in hot! Scatter!
General! Come quick!
Let's take this away from here!
Well, this is rather... intriguing.
How you like me now!?
Oh!
Oh, what is this?
Aaah!
That stuff doesn't handle high frequencies too well.
So not how I wanted Nick Fury to first see me in action.
Try some of this!
I am impressed you could wield the rings.
I don't care what you think.
You would be well advised to care,
for you have no idea of the true power of the rings.
Forged in the heart of the first star
were ten all-powerful rings.
The Great Prophecy foretold that the Makluans would bring order
and peace to the Universe.
Having conquered half of the cosmos,
we prepared a great feast.
But I was betrayed by a weakling,
who stole the rings and fled!
The Guardian of the tenth temple
died at my own hand when I took the tenth ring!
Unfortunate. He was my son.
I had long hoped for the day that I would see him again,
and disintegrate him for his treachery!
But now, my thousand-year search has ended!
The Prophecy is soon complete.
The universe will be united under Makluan rule!
Sounds more like slavery to me.
[snicker]
Our intentions are one and the same, human.
We both want to conquer this world or destroy it.
I am nothing like you!
I recovered the Makluan Rings because they are my destiny!
I'm Earth's savior!
You may have managed to obtain the rings,
but I know you did not accomplish the task alone.
In fact, It appears the humans
who unwittingly helped in your quest harbor the idea
they can challenge us. I like that.
You wish to be savior of Earth,
let's see how worthy you truly are.
And intensify the disrupter field.
It's the only way we can stop them.
Right.
We'll need to assemble a team if we'll... What?!
[dramatic music]
[Makluan crowd cheering]
Something tells me they're not cheering f or us.
Gene!? What have you done to us!?
You'll help me do what I intended to do:
save the world.
Although the circumstances have changed a little.
Today, you can prove your planet's worthiness
and true strength.
Here in the Arena of Carnage!
Not liking the sound of this...
I am not of a barbaric nature.
I seek out entertainment and sport
from planets before their annihilation.
The Makluan Overlord intends to attack Earth,
unless we defeat their greatest warriors.
Hold up. You were just trying to take over the world,
and we should team up with you?
You may see me as an enemy, Rhodes
but I'll do all I can to protect the planet.
Speaking of power,
I see the Overlord has your rings!
[laugh]
So much for being the Great Khan.
Gene, how will you fight these warriors
without any powers?
I'm a Gold Tiger with 12 years of Wushu training.
I can handle myself without the rings.
Thanks, but we've got our own.
Those who enter the Arena of Carnage,
we salute you!
Overlord, forgive me, but I don't understand
why you allow this planet respite.
What happens to these piteous simians here
is inconsequential.
Filling our adversaries with hope
before we destroy them amuses me.
[battle yells]
[effort grunts]
What a great way to spend my 18th birthday.
Don't say I never got you anything.
Can I return it?
Hey Gene! Is this your mother or father's side of the family?
Ah!
Stuff it Rho-- Aaah!
Serves you ri--
Aaah! Ouch!
Ouch!
[screaming in pain]
[cheering]
[grunt]
What ya talking about, Makluan?
Say what!
This is most... vexing.
Let's see how you deal with this.
[fight screams]
Are you kidding me?!
Huh! Take thi...
Ah!
Aaahhh!
Wow, that was ugly but...
you lose!
Feel my blades, half-breed!
I'm sick of being called that.
Ha! Ya!
A Makluan just fell to a half-breed.
Must be the human in me, huh?
Hey! Lizard lips!
Taste this!
Ow!
You just got poned, son!
Wooo-hooo, we did i t! Uh-huh!
We have our moments.
Most impressive!
But the games are not yet over.
This was all prelude!
Prelude!? Prelude to what!?
Now, you will face our greatest Makluan champion,
The Berseker!
[cheering]
The Berserker!
[menacing music]
[♪♪♪]
[heavy footsteps]
[roar]
Think he will let me grab the Hulkbuster Armor?
Guys? Are my systems glitchy
or are these his energy readings?
It's all coming from him.
[growl]
Rhodes, I think you're gonna need bigger guns.
[powering up]
Go airborne!
[roar]
Ah!
Thanks.
Just trying to live up to my name.
[crowd cheering]
This thing is like the Hulk, without the brains.
More like an organic energy reactor with a cyclical pattern.
Then let's do a little smash before he revs up a gain.
[lasers blasting]
[crowd cheering]
[roar]
Ah!
Aaah!
Pepper!
[roar]
[battle yell]
Great, I'm a damsel in distress again.
No way. Just returning the favor.
Ow!
COMPUTER: Warning. Armor integrity breach.
[roar]
Take some of this!
Ow!
Okay freak nut!
It's payback time!
[powering up]
You're feeding him energy! You're only making him stronger!
That's it!
-Pepper... -I think...
My bruises have bruises.
Listen. The hammer, it isn't just a weapon. It's a valve!
When his body reaches its capacity,
he has to release it or he'll hit critical mass.
Without his hammer,
that energy stays inside him!
That can't be healthy! Like gas!
Whatever you've got in mind, hurry it up,
cause here he comes!
[roar]
Computer, reroute all power to defense!
Alright. Give it everything you've got!
With pleasure!
[distressed roar]
[effort grunt]
Just... a little... more!
[battle yell]
Route all power to the Unibeam!
[continued roar]
You want it?
You got it!
[continued roar]
[agitated crowd]
Well, are you entertained!?
What manner of treachery is this?
We defeated your champion fairly!
You lying, lowly homo-sapiens!
This will not stand!
Now, I will unleash my full fury upon you!
I can't believe it! We're...
...alive?
Um... Not for much longer.
