Having unbottled these emotions that had been building up for a decade, Antonio would find himself switching his focus onto Diego who seemed to be rather angered by the words of the Tin Man. Diego definitely felt the loyalty to In'ei and saw the benefit towards the greater good being the end all be all, and yet it was doing very little to persuade Antonio. "I DID AND DIED FOR IT. I've been on Life Support for the past decade- Oh alright, I can kick your ass even with my hands tied behind my ba-"
Antonio got into a yelling match with Diego, just as Truthteller would speak up telling the both of them that it was enough. The large man would turn his gaze upon the grizzled man and listened to him share condolences. It was all too easy to claim that he didn't agree with what happened, and promised that everything will be taken care of. Including energy.
At least Antonio seemed a bit calmer, especially as the handcuffs would unlink and clatter to the floor. The man would rub his own wrists whilst hearing this man claim that they were to look out for their own. His eye twitched upon remembering his partner who worked tirelessly to make him a new heart, only for it to blow up in her face in the most literal sense. "Then what are your plans of assisting me?"
Antonio would walk over to the chair he kicked away, dragging it over before sitting back in it again, "What resources do you have at your disposal that can take a city-level energy drain? What level of aid are you going to give this broken ticker? Because I can't help others if I'm at risk to drop dead in the middle of the field if I run out of power." He turned his gaze over to Diego, a mixture of defeat and frustration filling his visage. After all, becoming a Super Robot Hero was one of his biggest dreams as a kid, to wow and impress all the kids of the world and do the right thing. He still wanted to do good, but the man had a huge mistrust of the hero system at large, let alone the organizations working underneath said system...

Marauder seemed to be up for blowing this joint before the authorities got here, which was just perfect for the both of them. Heck, he was very much down to go and get a bite to eat and enjoy his new bit of gizmo. Antonio didn't waste any time to really observe it, as he went on. Marauder even wondered if they should close it on the way out, to which earned a simple, "I mean I'll give it a try."
With a shrug, he would allow Marauder to get on under the shutter. Antonio would follow suit as he rolled under the shutter and attempted to pull the door down, only for his now charged up strength to quite literally rip a chunk of the door off of the metal. Making the hole even larger, with Antonio holding a shutter door handle like a jackass.
Dropping it, he would utter a simple "whoops" before running off towards the outer wall of the facility. Letting loose an extendo-arm launch, Ironheart would pull himself over and would wait on the other side for Marauder. "Okay, there's a good joint in Tokyo proper called The Lively Bar. A nice place for cocktails with a phenomenal shrimp appetizer and good seafood. See you there?"

Previously in Fight For Justice: Defunct Hero Ironheart, Antonio Martinez in a fight to recharge his energy found himself being headhunted by the In'ei Hero Agency. Diego Ibarra tested the rampaging robot ex-hero, and being pleased with the results he and the other members incapacitated Antonio and took him to an interrogation cell in a currently undisclosed location. Upon recovering, Antonio finds himself offered an ultimatum: Go to jail as a Criminal, or become a Deep Cover agent on behalf of In'ei...
After having stopped that disaster, Antonio was completely thrown off by the vibes of Diego shifting from what seemed like an aggro thug to an almost passive observer. So much so that he was caught off guard and found a shot ringing out, piercing his skin with an armor piercing round and injecting him with a sedative. He lost track of his surroundings and found him waking up inside of a simple room, facing some old codger that was probably double his own age and-
Wait, Antonio knew of this codger. Way back in the day as a hero, even though he was a local American hero he was forcibly made aware of other agencies thanks to his science team. Truthseeker- wait, he was talking.......... Correction, Truthteller, that was his name! Leader of Bansho, old as piss hero agency located in Japan. Somehow got older looking than he did more than a decade and a half ago!
Antonio was still pretty groggy especially with how his mind was wandering, but slowly and surely waking up the entire time with his muscles feeling weird. He still felt energized, but his muscles still felt pretty sedated thanks to their stunt. Starting to replay what he was hearing and catching up to the old man's current statements, the rowdy robot was directed towards Manticora's presence who was also working on behalf of this...
In'ei? Never heard of it.
But then the ultimatum came. Either get locked up as a criminal, or join as a Deep Cover Criminal agent on their behalf and rejoin hero society. Just agree and he would be able to be in the good graces of hero societies? Just like that. It was just so easy, heck a good part of Antonio desperately wanted nothing more than to do good.
"Just like that? Leave a robot rushting in the rain for a decade, and I can come back into the toy box good assh new?" His voice despite the slurring, rumbled with a deep resentment that was heating up his cold words. "What kind of idiot do you take me for!?"
Standing up from his seat, he'd slam his knee into the table that he had been sitting at and, with an extended kick, donkey kicked the furniture at the nearby wall. A loud metallic clang echoed within this room, as Antonio stood at his full height to look down on Truthteller. He was still cuffed from behind, but he wouldn't hesitate to act out in frustration.
"I've lost my reputation, I've lost my friends, I've lost the remaining family I had, I lost out on the only career that could give me a chance to continue living normally. I gave everything I had and more, and instead of talking to me like a person, you made me play your game and then you have the nerve to threaten me after all that?" Antonio laid a good generalization of his own life story to him and what happened during their test.
Antonio stood as he could feel his chest rise and fall with each breath, as he countered with, "Honestly it might be the smarter idea to throw me in the slammer, then the government will finally be forced to come up with some solution to help me out. Even if its just a cable up my ass or some bullshit to feed me electricity."
"I'm not gonna play your game Truther," he would then kick the chair behind him backwards, with the sound of metal on floor grating as he plopped himself on the floor and immediately crossed his legs to sit. "What do I get out of your offer? Sure, I get freedom, but I still got a broken ticker. I'll still get hunted down by Government Dogs worrying about the costs of energy, which I need to live. And if I'm caught, I bet you're gonna throw some of that classic 'We have no ties to this criminal' -ish that is common in movies with this kind of plot."
So many years of dejection, rejection, hatred, frustration, fear, bargaining, denying, desperation was bubbling out of in a fury that was just on the cusp of going completely off the rail. Because this felt like a slap in the face after all that he had done, after all that he had sacrificed, and after all that time...
"Old man. If you got something, then please, let me hear it. Otherwise throw me in the slammer and I can finally legally siphon energy from the government." Truthteller would very much find no truths in all of this. Heck, this wasn't even Antonio even trying to be coy about his own truth or tell the truth for the sake of it. He'd have said this to whomever was representing In'ei before him, as the heartless robot wore his heart on his sleeve.
No games, no bullshit, just pure and honest conversation.

After regaling his tale to Marauder, it seemed that the tension of the air shifted. There was a pause of silence between the two that felt completely palpable especially after the threat, only to be ended with Kozue putting two and two together. It seemed that Kozue started to recognize the story, and even remembered him. The Tin Man seemed a little taken aback that he was even remembered despite decade after a forced retirement. "No shit?"
The guy, who was more than likely a young kid compared to him, was geeking out and was fumbling for something or another. Even talking about having an action figure of him when he was much younger, one that was hand crafted by him. "Well, color me surprised then! Don't blame ya since the mask did a good job hiding my identity!" His large teeth beamed brightly behind that mask he currently wore, though in reality his figure was vastly different from his old days when he had cybernetic armaments and equipment.
"Yeaaah, I'm in Japan now. Forced retirement and the fact that America couldn't handle the drain of energy I caused."
Pausing, Antonio would soon get up from his spot after having spent a good amount of time charging him. Unplugging himself from the power plant port, he could feel himself having several weeks of a charge. Didn't want to spend any more time here than he could afford in case authorities were alerted to the destroyed door property, especially with the fact that the two were on some sort of security feed.
"Hey Kid, how 'bout we get out of this joint before the authorities arrive?" He offered, hoping to get out of here as soon as possible since he didn't want to drag someone else into his mess of a lifestyle, "We can go somewhere, get a bite to eat, somethin' to drink, and I can tell ya some stories. Tickled pink that I still got a fan after all these years, ya know?"
Passing by, he attempted to pat Kozue on the shoulder whilst heading in the direction of the shutter doors he forced up earlier.

Pivoting into a double-hammer arm spin, the arms would fling out with extendable chains keeping him connected with the fists. Both would land on the arms of Manticora, who took a glancing blow whilst using the force of the strikes to put distance in between the two of them. The grinning thug would inquire if the old man wanted praise, to which Antonio could only comment loudly, "I want you to get your ass kicked enough for you to lay off o' me!"
Speaking with his whole chest on that, he would retract his arms to prepare for the next onslaught that Manticora might've had in store for the Tin Man. That was when the sound of tires peeling out would distract Antonio, causing him to jerk his head towards the sounds. What followed next would cause his eyes to widen as the car slammed right into a telephone pole, causing power lines to snap and land right on the car.
"Hey, EY! DON'T OPEN YOUR DOORS!" Ironheart shouted out, before turning to Diego and signing with his two hands in the shape of a T. "Manticora, Time Ou-" Antonio didn't have the chance to finish that sentence with the guy launching himself forward with a punch aimed at Antonio.
The punch would cold clock the Iron Giant right in the face, his head whipping upward towards the sky for a few moments before lowering his gaze to look down on Manticora. The wild side of him seemed to evaporate in just a matter of moments as his tone was far more serious, "Ain't the people here part of your territory, you shitty excuse of a punk!?"
Shouting that as he did his best to no-sell this punch, he would turn his back on Manticora as he rushed over to the car. The people inside asking for help, and the electricity did internally freak the Tin Man out. However this wasn't the time for such thoughts, as the man reeled back a leg and gave a side swiping kick to it. Putting his full force into the kick, he aimed to knock the car out and away from the telephone pole.
And in a reaching manner the man would grab hold of the live wire. Muscles tensed up in absolute agony, as he endured the pain. Searing pain jolting through his body, like thousands of angry bees were spewing corrosive acid within his veins and bones. But endured it he did as he would start tying the live wire around the pole. "Make the... Bunny Ears... And tie em in a KNOT!" As if tying sneakers with the worlds most dangerous shoe laces, he would tie up the live wire as high above the pole he could reach.
Scorch marks stained his hands and arms jittery, as that live wire definitely drained quite a bit of his energy. His hair looked a lot more deflated as he turned to face Manticora, and then the people in the car, then back to Manticora. "C'mon you heartless bastard, I might be running low on energy again, but it'll be... Still enough to kick your ass!"
Even if Antonio doubted such claims, he had to believe in it. After all, if this punk decided to turn his ire on these civilians, then he'd have to eat the punches for them. So he had to continue keeping this guy's attention.

Huff Puff and a Miss, jeez being out of shape really killed his vibes a significant degree. This brat definitely was definitely capable enough to really be a considerable kingpin in this area, though his demeanor left a lot to be desired. A bit brash and bombastic compared to the capable ones he helped bust back in his heyday, but then again it might be ones of those changing of generation type beats. Honestly made sense that the ones with less screws were top dogs compared to the stiff boards heroes were able to take down.
Antonio definitely was lagging behind in the speed department as Manticora felt like he was moving at another gear higher than him. The guy would circle around and aim a kick behind him, in which Antonio was already in mid spin to try and keep up facing Diego. The foot landed firmly against the abdomen, and the resounding echo of metal rang out.
Antonio's smile grew only to help hide the gritting of his teeth, as he didn't want to show that he could feel it to a considerable degree. In the middle of him trying to spin around, his mouth would transform back to normal whilst focusing his quirk on his arms, as muscles whirred and clanked to create a chain-link arm extension. "C'mon, my Grandma used to kick better than that, and she was still half my height!" Antonio taunted as he released the mechanism within his arm, launching his arms outward.
Spinning on the balls of his heels, he would intend to try and catch Diego off guard by spinning like a top and, at worst, whack Diego with his metallic forearms as if they were flails. At best, potentially wrap his chain arms around Diego to keep him locked down.
This was Antonio's best bet if he wanted to try and prevail Turn it into a contest of pure strength and durability, as he sure as shit wasn't winning any races with his current tool kit.

Antonio was a bit surprised that a random hero-posing person was actually interested in listening to his story. Well, surprise wasn't the right word. He couldn't place it at the moment as the Tin Man was more than used to being overlooked or the techno-babble talk was shoveled under the table in lieu of something more interesting. The guy would even have his own question in regards to how Antonio's odd biology.
"Well, if I have to get technical... I don't got normal human anatomy as I'm like a Robot Man, and my equivalent of a human heart provided me energy and also regulated how much I needed at a time. Sure I could run outta juice, but I'd have enough energy to sustain a state of living despite how injured I became," He thumbed his chest right where a visible scar was seen, "However when it blew out, it's aaaalmost like a car with a dead battery kind of situation. My body goes inert until I get an initial charge, and until I run out of electricity all my bodily functions are at maximum output of energy so I go through it too fast. And that's before any other fun features concerning my quirk using more and more energy..."
He tried to make it sound as understandable as possible, as Antonio didn't know what the stranger's level of technological understanding was. Though the more they spoke, the more it became clear that the two of them were technologically inclined especially when going to what happened with his overload. "Still a bit of a sore spot since I blew out my damn heart," He tilted his head, "But it ain't an issue sharing the details like that. Hrmmm... Best way to put it, going from full charge to none, it takes me a month to get through the same amount of energy Tokyo goes through in a single day. Last I checked like Two-Hundred-K Gigawatts? It's been a while since I was able to properly test my body's capabilities..."
Just the fact alone that, as a single person, he can go through the amount of energy Tokyo uses on a daily basis in a month was rather insane. But it got a bit more wild, as he admitted, "Then during my incident I was holding a building up with all my strength, transformed my body further than it had before and then some... I essentially Money Shifted my body, and my engine burst, so now I can't generate or properly regulate energy in my body. Shit's rough."
The tragic hero, despite feeling electricity just buzzing under his skin like a hive of bees in the most discomforting ways possible, just saw that as a matter of 'it is what it is.' He hated the lack of support he got from it, but the guy wouldn't have changed what he did that day. Thankfully after sharing the sob story, Kozue seemed to lose interest in potentially reporting or stopping Antonio. In fact, the guy introducing himself as Marauder admitted that it was like kicking a dude when he's down.
"Ey EY EY," His voice would raise at the pity he was being given, "Appreciate the empathy, but I ain't gonna let a pitiable statement like that slide. I have you know I could throw you the full distance over Tokyo Harbor despite the state I'm in!" He pounded his chest with authority, with a definite metal-on-metal clanging sound reverberating within the facility. One deep exhale later, he just followed up with, "And if we're going by pseudonym stuff, I used to go by Ironheart...... On second thought, after sharing that story, I realized that's a bad kind of ironic...
"I think I'll be going by Fullmetal then, how does that sound?" Inquiring about how good that fake name goes, he'd wait for a response whilst enjoying that sensation of being able to breathe without feeling some sort of odd pit in his chest once more.

"Twenty-Seven... Twenty-Eight-" Antonio would continue counting himself out, until he heard an odd voice. A stranger was calling out to him from behind, causing the large arm mecha-man to lower the makeshift pull-weights. Turning to look at the approaching woman, the man pushed up on his sunglasses to get a good look at her. He would pause for a moment to process the words she began with before replying out, "Yeah, in Tokyo those are the kinds of gyms that require a Hero License or a Hero Student ID last I checked. I ain't got one of those anymore."
Giving an indignant shrug, he continued on, "That and a more stingy pants policy." Chuckling at that one, he would give another pull of the chains to lift them both up to Twenty-Nine. Meara would compliment the ingenuity of it, to which the Tin Man's smile grew even cheekier. "Ooh if you think this is ingenuity, you ain't seen nothin' yet, hehah!"
And with one more pull, he would lift it up to thirty and hit his goal. Letting them down gently, he leaned down to reach into a duffel bag he brought with him to wipe the sweat off of his arms and brow. Trying to not look like an absolute sweat-hog, he'd ask her, "Say, what's a young lady like you doin' here? You look too clean to think of using this run-down harbor as a personal gym." He continued to dry himself off to maintain some level of cleanliness while in between his workout sets.

It seemed that Antonio choosing to mellow out and potentially oust the both of them potentially not being allowed here was a gambit with attempting. The helmeted kid was also here for some rather ill deed, but seemed to have a virtuous chip on his shoulder as he was more concerned with the fact that Antonio was performing a potentially illegal act. But at least the kid had a heart to admit that he'd do the same in that situation.
Soon he would relent to share that he was here digging through trash, looking for trashed components that would probably be expensive to buy on the regular market. "Nah, you ain't wrong. Admittedly did the same to build a lil gizmo of mine," Antonio would comment with a wide smile. The man continued sitting down to let himself charge up, as the realization struck Kozue.
"Yeah, like one of them Electric Cars or a toy robot," The ski-masked man would confirm, before the next question came. Kozue was rather interested in why someone needed so much power, claiming that it was a pacemaker. "I mean, yes but no. I made a pacemaker gizmo to give me a small amount of charge in case I run out, however..."
Taking pause, the man let out a heavy sigh as a hand would unconsciously finding itself towards where his heart would have been inside his chest. Palm pressed against his own flesh as he admits, "My heart was a power source to my body, and due to what I previously did I kept needing more and more power. My heart kept up, until I pushed it way to far and it blew out. So I have a high demand for energy, but no supply."
Antonio still felt pride within the heights of heroism he was able to achieve within his heyday, however each passing day was becoming more and more of a slog to get through with such a failing body. And he didn't want to die, so he'd do anything it took to keep extending his life.
"I'd appreciate if ya turned a blind eye since I ain't hurting anyone," Which was technically true and false at the same time, as it was hard to gauge what effects he had when siphoning energy through power plants like this in huge swathes.

It was quite a beautiful morning. The birds were chirping, the sun was unhindered by any of the morning clouds. And in one of the defunct harbors lining Tokyo Bay was the sound of clanking metal, as a seven foot tall metal man was doing some exercises.
"Twenty three.... Twenty Four..." The man grunted as he stood in the middle of the field, hands grappling some chains in this scrapyard that were connected to some empty storage containers. Using the defunct harbor's cranes as a makeshift pulley, he continued doing these over-exacerbated exercises as he had to keep himself in shape.
After all, this metal man had some fun new changes in his life. He had the energy to spare after having siphoned some energy from some primo boat batteries that luckily had some charge left. The man wore nothing more than a pair of speedos and a yellow and purple Hawaiian shirt, along with his sunglasses he continued to work on his lifts.

It seemed like the kid was also a man of his word as well. Antonio had anticipated possibilities of things not going so well, as this punk could very well have given the Iron Giant a shorter deadline to get his charge. Or potentially say F it and just drag Antonio out for even suggesting to wait that long. But no, Manticora was a man of his word as well.
Antonio couldn't help but smile as the thug would taunt Antonio, talking about how everyone knows not to fight the Manticora. "You ain't bad yourself kid, as it's generally dumb as hell to let your opponent charge up. You got confidence in yourself, so now I'm curious as to what ya got." Antonio responded and cracked his knuckles in kind, especially as the two stood in the vacant parking lot behind the Substation Entrance. Just an alleyway away in one direction towards a small shopping district, and another alleyway away from the highway.
Manticora once again set the stage, returning the dumb insult back as he aimed to put Antonio out of his misery. The blue haired berserker rushed the Iron Giant, especially as an odd force would weight Antonio down. His own bare feet would press into the asphalt, cracking the ground from the newfound weight pulling him down. "What th-," Antonio would remark before feeling a weighty fist collide into his chest.
Diego might have been a little surprised to feel a good amount of pushback from Antonio's body, not immediately being knocked back or down from the strike. Realizing that this was probably the result of his quirk, the Iron Man would await for the next attack. Attempting to grapple that fist and catch it, Antonio would try to hold Diego in place.
"I'm sorry, did you say you'll make this quick? Where's the fun in that!?" He bellowed out as he activated his Mecha-Man quirk, as mechanisms were shifting the back of his mouth. Uvula and Tonsils whirred and clanked to life, transforming into metallic bits, bobs and mechanisms as a hole seemed to form in the back of his mouth. Tonsils transforming into gasoline canisters, with his uvula turning into lighter of sorts.
Attempting to use his Mecha-Man strength to crush Diego's hand in his own, Diego would also attempt to spew fire down onto Manticora. "Welcome to Hell's Kitchen, where I'm smoking up a fresh slab of Manticora Ribs! YEOW!" Antonio felt giddy to make that jest, feeling so much more lively as he finally had some energy to spare for the first time in about a month for goofy stuff like this.

That was a hell of a bluff that Antonio just attempted, one that he didn't even think would work. It was all just a ploy to buy some time to get some charge, at least thirty seconds bought him enough time for a single day when plugged directly into a power source like this. And it was working as Kozue seemed to have been caught off guard when the question was flipped back on him, the helmeted man talking about how he was supposedly security from a different plant to cover gaps in the schedule.
That was reasonable enough, but the mask ugliness just sounded super farfetched to him to be a coincidence. Any mask would've done, but something so advanced felt a bit of an overstatement.
That was when he pushed the story further, asking for ID. "HA, yeah, sorry about that maaaan," Antonio continued the deception, "They're in my other pants." Taking big pause at such a pivotal moment, his eyes darted around trying to find some sort of continuation, "Coworker used his quirk to steal 'em off of me like a prank"
An awkward silence would hold, as Antonio's brow visibly furrowed behind his mask. Trying to fight a smile before sighing out loud, "Okay, so we ain't buying each other's stories? We completely full of it?" Trying to level with the kid, before continuing on, "Yeah, I broke in here, I need to charge up or I'll effectively be dead until someone else recharges me. Aaaand I require too much energy due to my life til now. So what's your story?"

Having defiantly plugged himself into the substation's machine right in front of this thug's face, Antonio was more than ready to take some walloping as he was charging. It seemed that this maneuver had garnered some sort of respect out of the kid, who seemed to only have a growing smile. He had a feeling that this might be a case of it, where he would have lost standing or respect in the face of someone wielding might; but even if it wasn't the response would've remained the same.
Antonio's own eyes started to widen and even glow a low-red hue, as he could feel his muscles tense and lock from the electricity being fed into his body. The Metal Man himself wasn't in any shape to duke it out like this, especially not in a claustrophobic space such as this. Maintaining eye contact with Diego the entire time, waiting for this stalemate to be broken...
And it seemed to be broken in a rather amicable fashion, with Diego introducing himself as Manticora. "Fullmetal," Anotnio would respond in kind with an affirming nod, utilizing his lesser known pseudonym as anyone who knew of the Old Hero Ironheart might become suspicious of him being on the other side of the law. Manitcora would continue and saying how 'everyone' knew that this was his territory, and took issue with Antonio acting without his knowledge.
Rolling his eyes at this proclamation, he'd continue to let this young man monologue as each precious second of charge was a liberating amount of life. Manticora laid down an ultimatum of letting Antonio charge up, and then going out to 'get that electricity back.' He couldn't remain stone-faced at that prospect, smiling largely at that idea. "I'll be a couple minutes charging up. Fourteen minutes and I'll have a week's worth of charge, hope you got enough bite in you to try and take it all back."
Sharing that taunt back, Antonio would've been happier to mee this guy in different circumstances. Despite the rather aggressive nature, there was a level of honor within this aggressive brat. The Old Soul in Antonio could respect that, even as Diego would head on out of the Substation. Letting out one last threat about crushing him and taking this place out.
"Ain't even thinking about it kiddo," Antonio bemoaned as he would finally have a moment's rest, as he siphoned energy from the neighborhood. Taking deep breaths in order to help regulate himself, he would welcome the silence...
Fourteen minutes later after having given Manticora his space and time to lounge about and guard the substation from any other prying eyes, Antonio would disconnect himself from the substation with that heavy, hollow feeling in his chest subsiding in a great way. Walking quite steadily out of the building, he called out through the building towards the exit, "Manticore! I'm charged, the hell do you wanna take this?"

"Shoot! Give me the Hot Sauce over the Ranch, I can handle a little bit of spicy... But trying to drink Ranch, I'll drown from how slow that will go through my body. Eugh..."
"How 'bout this, would you rather be famous for being one of the worst in your line of work, or would you want to be one of the best but never getting acknowledged for your skill?"
