Chapter 300 A Powerful Punch That Shatters Reality
boom!!!
Amidst the deafening explosion, the earth of Apokolips began to tremble. The violent shockwave turned the ground upside down like a stir-fry, scattering millions of tons of soil and rocks into the air. Superman Supreme, with Darkseid by the neck, danced wildly through the air!
"Ughhhhhh!"
boom!!!!
Superman Supreme, holding Darkseid, crashed him to Earth like a comet, then tossed him high into the air and punched him repeatedly with his classic Superman punches, sending the entire planet reeling with deafening explosions.
Then he kicked Darkseid hard to the ground, and the two of them slid across the surface of the planet like plowing. Superman Supreme rode on Darkseid's back and unleashed a barrage of punches that made his opponent cower and cover his head.
The surrounding soil was crushed and separated like ocean waves, and the flesh and bones of countless Parademons killed by Superman Supreme turned into mud and merged with the entire planet they were protecting.
"Batman!"
Darkseid's roar shook the heavens and earth: "Enough! Where are your reinforcements?!"
In the gaps between the Supreme Superman's rapid-fire punches, he saw that figure, red and gold on one side and wreathed in black and red lightning, closely following them, occasionally switching back to nanobot mode—
Darkseid knew that the opponent's speed-force state couldn't be maintained for long and had to be stopped every few seconds. The opponent was only using that state to keep up with their constantly changing battle location and had no intention of helping them fight.
"What happened to your promised help? What happened to your promised trump card?"
Darkseid struggled desperately to break free from Superman Supreme's grasp, crawling on his hands and feet in the mud, and reached out his hand to Batman:
"Hurry up and do it!"
However, he saw that Batman across from him had a look of utter disbelief on his face, quickly switched to his Speed Force form, and ran away. Darkseid even saw the other man put his feet together, and then in a flash, they turned into wheels, spinning incredibly fast, and disappeared in an instant.
"Damn it! Don't bring the battlefield here! I already said, reinforcements are on their way!"
Darkseid tried to climb over, but Superman the Younger grabbed him by the back of his collar and dragged him backward.
"No no no no no no—"
Darkseid's ten fingers left deep marks on the ground. He struggled desperately, but to no avail, and was eventually pulled close by Superman Supreme.
He knew perfectly well that Superman Supreme intended to kill the stronger of the two of them first, and it was obvious to the other that he was the "stronger one." Batman's superior speed compared to both of them was likely one of the reasons Superman Supreme focused on dealing with him first.
This might be recognition from the enemy, but Darkseid was not happy at all.
"Batman, help me—why are you just standing there?"
His face contorted in a look of utter disarray, like a terrified fool struggling desperately to escape from the side of the Supreme Superman. He showed none of the composure expected of the Lord of Apokolips.
He successfully tricked Superman, and in that instant, the other man raised his fist, leaving him wide open.
Darkseid's counterattack also erupted at this moment.
"Drink up! Drink up!"
The Lord of Apokolips roared, suddenly turned around, grabbed the leg of the Superman Supreme, and unleashed a deafening shockwave with a punch carrying Omega energy into the face of the Superman Supreme.
Then he suddenly hugged the other's small body and slammed his head heavily into the other's face. Deep red Omega rays erupted from his eyes as he clashed with the heat vision of the Supreme Superman at close range.
This was a brilliant counterattack—unprecedented, decisive, and powerful.
Superman seemed completely unaware that Darkseid, whom he had just suppressed, still had plenty of strength left.
Before his heat vision could even focus, the Omega Ray struck his eyes with devastating force. As he clutched his eyes in agony, Darkseid delivered a knee strike, sending his head flying backward, and then…
Uh, and then...
Then he had a nosebleed.
"here you go."
He said.
Superman the Supreme remained expressionless, then suddenly broke into a grin and gave Darkseid a sinister smile.
The enormous giant was immediately filled with dread.
An expression of disbelief returned to his rock-like face, which was like the most potent aphrodisiac to many arrogant and powerful individuals.
Just as Superman's attention was once again drawn to him, the figure of the black runner appeared behind Superman once more.
"A life form has been discovered. It should have died, but it was not killed."
The black figure on the glider was so fast and appeared at such a clever time that even Chen Tao, who had synchronized with the Red Death Demon, was caught off guard.
He swung his scythe, aiming for Superman's back.
"Karl El, from the Primordial Earth—All things must die!"
Darkseid's expression returned to its usual calm and collected state, no longer displaying the deliberate attempts to attract the enemy's attention.
His burning eyes rapidly calculated how much time the black runner's attack could buy him.
Batman tells him that his trump card, which can severely damage Superman Supreme, needs time to charge. This means that Darkseid himself needs to buy enough time for Superman Supreme to focus on him instead of on destroying Apokolips.
Their battle appeared to be causing great damage to Apokolips, but in reality—
It is indeed very large, but it is at least smaller than Superman the Mini-Ultimate rushing into the Earth's core and unleashing his heat vision.
If it weren't for his intervention, the Supreme Superman who had just slaughtered all those Parademons would have almost done it.
In a fraction of a second, Darkseid waited for the black runner to crash into Superman from behind again, but in that instant, his eyes met Superman's.
Those eyes were smiling, but Darkseid could still clearly see the madness hidden within them, a madness that burned like fire in the deepest part of the smile in his eyes.
A sudden, inexplicable sense of foreboding welled up in Darkseid's heart.
"drink!!!"
Superman the Supreme turned around abruptly.
His eyes reflected the figure of the black-clad runner rushing towards him.
It is the living embodiment of death, an inevitable death. Anyone who touches it will fall into eternal slumber, the realm of death.
Superman moved his shoulder; the wound from the collision was still throbbing. A deathly force was eroding half of his body, constantly reminding him that "you are dead."
But he was simply too powerful, far too powerful.
He used pure brute force to deny the concept of "death" itself from encompassing him, which was a power that was absolutely beyond the Black Runner's comprehension. This is why the Black Runner disappeared immediately after attacking Superman once.
For the Black Runner, every appearance of his took a life. Any creature that touched him would die instantly; he had never encountered an exception.
But he sees it now, doesn't he?
Therefore, the Black Runner needs to correct his mistake. He mistakenly estimated that Superman the Supreme was a dead creature and left before the other party was dead. This was a mistake, and he must now correct it.
So the Superman reached out a hand to the black runner.
He slowly clenched his fist, and then golden bio-fields condensed at his fingertips. Immense power surged and roared within him.
Then... came a deafening roar.
The world went deaf in an instant.
Superman threw a punch at the black runner with all his might, and reality shattered in an instant, howling in destruction.
Darkseid covered his face, and then, as the smoke cleared...
He saw that half of the shoulder and head of the black runner he had placed so much hope in had vanished.
The physical manifestation of death managed to run two more steps forward before collapsing to the ground with a thud.
"The embodiment of death, the terminator of all things?"
Behind him, Superman's cape billowed as he spat at the fallen black runner.
"Pah, the terminator that has been terminated."
Chen Tao looked at the black runner lying on the ground.
This is... way too exaggerated.
But it doesn't matter. For a black runner, he is death, so there is no concept of death.
Superman only temporarily shut down the opponent, which is actually a good thing for him.
After all... the Black Runner needs a more powerful host to unleash its full potential.
"ah!!!!"
Darkseid was once again grabbed by the neck by Superman Supreme, who was forcefully tearing at one of Apokolips Lord's arms, and Darkseid screamed in agony.
It was a real scream, not an act. His arm had been broken by Superman the Mini.
"Hurry! Hurry..."
Darkseid was dragged back by Superman the Supreme once again, his hands plowing deep furrows in the ground, his whole body almost exploding from the beating.
Chen Tao squatted down in front of the black-clad runner: "I know, I know."
He said:
"Don't rush me."
……
……
……
"The Flash, Barry Allen, once broke free from the Black Runner through sheer willpower."
Reverse-Flash silently watched as the green lantern ring floated up before him, and Batman's voice rang out from within it.
This replica Green Lantern ring used Green Lantern energy to create Batman's face.
Reverse Lightning stared at it grimly.
"And if the Flash can do it, then Reverse-Flash can definitely do it too. I'm even afraid you can't, so I left this for you—"
"Green light ring".
"Darkseid will summon the Black Runner, and I will help you merge with him through the resonance of the Reverse Speed Force."
"I told you, I would never help you, Batman," Reverse-Flash said. "Unless you force me."
"Come on," he said. "I bet you're prepared to force me. But don't ever think I'll cooperate with you, never."
Then, he rolled over to make himself more comfortable, as he was bound by the magic circle.
"The green light ring can protect your body and ensure that you will never be torn apart by a black runner."
However, the Batman afterimage materialized by the Green Lantern Ring seemed completely oblivious to what he was saying; it appeared to be a recording rather than a live conversation.
He continued speaking to himself:
"This ring can open a storage dimension containing seven tons of water from the Pool of Lhasa Road, as well as swamp monster tubers cultivated by the Poison Ivy Woman. These life-giving substances can help you break free from the Black Runner's influence."
"After all, you don't want to become a physical servant of death, spending your whole life traveling between different places and reaping other people's lives, right?"
"But I won't work for you," Reverse-Flash scoffed. "Do you think I'm a fool?"
Despite saying that, Reverse-Flash was already filled with despair.
In the future he envisioned, the Flash would be obliterated in a battle against Darkseid, but by then he had been captured and had completely lost the right to control everything.
Will things develop as he envisioned in the future?
He suddenly lost interest in communicating with the recording left by Batman, then shook his head and lay down.
"Be aware that after you are possessed by the Black Runner, the other party may try to control your mind. However, even if you escape from the Black Runner, you will still suffer severe damage."
"So, I'm afraid that after you end the possession, you won't have the strength to fight anymore."
Reverse Lightning suddenly raised its head.
The information Batman suddenly revealed made his eyes widen in surprise, even though he hadn't paid any attention to it before.
He instantly understood why Batman had asked him to become the host.
When Batman truly faces Darkseid, he must rely on the Flash, whom he trusts, to help him confront the enemy. This is why Barry Allen cannot afford to be seriously injured by Superman the Younger.
That's why Batman chose Reverse-Flash as his weapon against Superman Supreme.
Wait a minute… Reverse Flash suddenly realized the current situation.
He suddenly understood the future he had seen.
He had long seen through the superficial harmony between Batman and Darkseid, and knew that a battle between them was inevitable. However, he couldn't figure out where the scene of Flash's sacrifice that he had witnessed earlier came from, because, given the current situation, it seemed to have become an impossible event.
But he'd already figured it out. His severe injuries from defeating Superman Supreme, preventing him from fighting Darkseid, were precisely the prerequisites for the Flash's sacrifice.
When Batman faced Darkseid, he suddenly realized that there was a situation where the Speed Force had to sacrifice itself. Neither the Turtle nor Grodd was fast enough, and Reverse-Flash was seriously injured and unable to run. So the Flash sacrificed himself to defeat Darkseid.
Look, fate has arranged everything so clearly, and everything is in perfect order, isn't it?
