Stark Infinity

After a while Stark was left alone in his workshop.

"Jarvis, show me the reports."

"Right away, Sir."

Maybe not entirely alone.

Tony looked at the holographic and screen swiped his hands every now and then as he browsed through the news.

[Teenager Caught Using Super Powers?]

[A Woman Claimed She Saw A Mermaid Out In the Sea]

[A Hidden Advanced Civilization in Africa? A few claimed to have been saved by an African Organisation using advanced technology.]

[Osborn Corporation has acquired a budding company.]

[Baxter Building Scientist Claims he has discovered a ground breaking Technology but refuses to disclose any evidence of his claims.]

[Breaking News! Tony Stark has been rescued...]

"Hmm, interesting," Stark muttered with a slight smile.

Yes, he found his findings very interesting as he made a few mental notes.

"Mutants? Check."

"Fantastic Four? Not there yet, but soon."

"Atlantis? Namor? Yet to be confirmed."

"There are other things that need to be confirmed and Shield would have a lot of answers. Also, Hydra."

Stark thought as his mind raced with plans until he noticed something.

"It feels like too many things are happening at the same time. Moreover, news of such strange findings started around the same time as my kidnapping."

'This can only mean one thing.'

"The 'Plot' of this universe has been launched."

"But what is the plot of this universe? I have no idea. There are too many similarities with a lot of other works that I can't predict exactly how things will flow in the coming years."

"But nevertheless, I can roughly predict a direction based on the current status. Also, in order for me to get a headstart on certain possible future occurrences I need to have a lot of information on my hands."

"Classified information."

"I guess it's finally time to put my hacker skills to the test." Stark thought out loud.

Jarvis heard that and asked, "You want to hack something, Master Stark?"

"Nah, it's not gonna be me Jarvis."

"What do you mean Sir?"

"I have many things I will be needing your help with," Stark smiled.

"It's time to give your first major upgrade and also you'll be getting a new partner soon," Stark spoke mysteriously and left the room.

Jarvis understood the first part of the sentence but he couldn't understand the second half of it, although he had some speculations of what Master Stark meant, he couldn't be sure.

Meanwhile, Tony was still drafting plans.

He took out a notebook and began to write. He has a habit of jotting down his ideas and plans when he was on Earth.

That was a habit the original Tony did not have.

In the book he wrote;

Roadmap to Infinity

Step 1: Gain More Knowledge

'Knowledge is power,' Tony thought.

'My greatest asset is what I know. Based on Tony Stark's design in the comics. He is built to be an intellectual with a specific focus on a certain direction in technology.'

'But who said I can only be a genius in that regard? What if Iron Man focused and studied genetics? Or Biochemistry? Or something else?'

'Moreover, I am even much smarter than usual.'

Tony had finally noticed a difference in himself. Ever since his reawakening and the fusion of two souls he had discovered that he had a greater mindset.

Greater intellect and his thought process is much faster. Making a rough estimate based on past experiences, Tony estimates that he had gotten three times smarter.

But what is even more shocking is that he subtly feels that his intelligence is growing everyday.

So his first goal is to increase his knowledge and expertise in multiple areas. But there was one big obstacle that he had.

"Time..."

"How can I acquire knowledge and gain expertise in multiple specializations in the shortest time possible?"

"Hmm, this cannot be solved in the shortest time possible so I'll do this first."

Stark added another note below 'Step 1'.

- Create the new element and replace the palladium core on my chest and avoid future palladium poisoning.

"For that I have to visit my father's basement/personal workshop after all," he muttered.

In this reality, the mansion was the home of his family and his father Howard Stark had his own workshop.

After his father's death, due to certain reasons, Tony never visited it.

The current Tony is different so he didn't have much of those emotional reasons and wasted no time and acted.

"Time to use my father's hard earned discovering and complete what he couldn't."

"The creation of the one and only Badassium."

"Or should I call it another name?"

"We'll see."
