Chapter 219: Bad Boys Deserve Punishment (4000 words)
One Punch Man Saitama, his ability is simple - that is, he is invincible, and in his own story, no matter how powerful the enemy is, he will deal with it with greater strength.
But this is not his own world.
By questioning Kirovara, Red quickly understands that this conceptual ability cannot be fully reproduced in other people's worlds, just like Red's Infinity Stones were unusable when they first arrived in the DC Universe, and even though some of the features have been developed now, they still can't do the power of reshaping the world with a snap of their fingers in the Marvel Cinematic Universe.
Or, if the Bald Cloak Man was really as invincible as he was in his own story, Bad Ban and Nata Root would not have been able to sneak up and transfer his power.
But why was the bad squad able to show Saitama's abilities with such terrifying oppressive power, and even to kill both Carol and the Almighty Nolan in seconds?
The answer lies in the fact that there is another power fused with him......
He used the Hypermeter to capture the Speedmaster's dNA!
Although Red is not completely sure, according to his guess, this "Tian Xiaoban" is not the protagonist of the bEN10 story he thought at first.
However, even the alternate world version of the bad class has a powerful device called the Super Energy Meter, which allows the wielder to obtain the dNA of other aliens and gain the ability to transform into that alien.
Speedmaster belongs to the Kryptonians of the three universes of the Earth, and of course fits into the category of being aliens.
But generally speaking, the strength of the aliens transformed by the super energy meter will be limited by the degree of compatibility with the holder, and often cannot directly exert 100% strength.
The Saitama ability he captured through Natazar made up for it, and the exponential growth rate of One-Punch Man allowed the bad squad to quickly tap into the potential to become a supergiant.
But......
Just like what Red said to his motherland before, a sudden and drastic increase in his power will in itself have a serious impact on his ability to manipulate.
Bad Ban had just easily defeated Carol and Nolan, which made his self-confidence so inflated that when he was annoyed by Red's verbal stimulation, his attacks were almost unreserved.
This also made Red's punch hit the bad squad who transformed into a supermaster in the face.
Bang!
With a loud sound like a 10-ton equivalent tNt being detonated, the bad squad was instantly sent flying, and the speed was so fast that it felt as if the space was distorted.
But in just a few seconds, Bad Squad broke through the atmosphere, and just as he seemed to be about to escape the influence of gravity and enter the universe—
Red appeared in front of his trajectory at a near-teleportation speed.
Rumble!
Redt raised his arm and grabbed the bad class's head stiffly.
After being punched by Red, bad squad's nose can be seen broken and his jaw bone shattered, but he still wants to fight back against Red.
"Damn...... I haven't lost yet! I can get stronger...... What?!! ”
But at this moment, the bad squad's body lit up with a dark green light, and then began to rapidly deform, transforming from the original tall and muscular Supermaster back into a small child of short stature.
"Why, the Hypertherm automates-"
"Because of its auto-protector system, if you continue to maintain the same form as before, you will explode immediately...... Then again, you should have asked what your hair color was, and it would have saved you a lot of trouble if you knew you had black hair. ”
Red seems to have predicted this, and according to his character, he will not show mercy, and the reason why he did not immediately make up for it is just unnecessary.
After realizing the powerful nature of the bad class, which is the transformation of the Speedmaster dNA with the exponential growth buff, the next question is how to solve this problem.
Although in terms of personality, the sinister and timid Supermaster who likes to bully the soft and fear the hard is a crumb, but his strength cannot be ignored. As the opposite of Superman in the Overworld, Supermaster's abilities are also among the best among Superhumans in parallel worlds.
However, he is facing Red, who has absorbed some of the power of Superman and Saitama with the hand of a soul-lust.
The collision of Speedmaster and Superman's energy will cause a big explosion, which is also reflected in the original final crisis story, and the bad class detonates Speedmaster's body to presumably take advantage of this.
So as Red said before, this is a battle that must be won and lost between punches, both of them have an extremely high growth rate, and a very high ability ceiling-
But whoever gets hit first will have their body detonated by two opposing energies!
The reason why the bad squad did not explode immediately is probably because the automatic protector system of the super energy meter sensed the danger and automatically lifted the transformation state.
"Damn—stupid! Switch forms now, or I'm going to die! ”
Red's hand suddenly lightened, the super energy meter is worthy of artifact-level equipment, and in this case, he can also take the best strategy for the master, only to see that in just a second, the body of the bad squad turned into a ghost-like creature with chains wrapped around his body.
Moreover, Red's hand passed directly through him, as if it was only an illusion in front of him, and there was no physical interference at all.
Ghost, this is one of the most basic forms of the Super Energy Meter, with the ability to be as immune to any physical attacks as the Ghost, and can survive unharmed in the cosmic environment, no wonder the Super Energy Meter will automatically choose this stand-in for the bad class.
However, up to this point, it was all in Red's expectations.
"Hahahaha, I didn't expect to have to use the ghost form in the end...... Then just wait slowly – uh! ”
I saw Red's hand pass directly through the ghost's body, although theoretically he couldn't inflict any physical attack on the ghost, but just a few seconds later, the ghost's body suddenly trembled violently.
"You, you...... What the hell did you do...... Belch!!! ”
It can be seen that the ghost's "skin" began to gradually show burning marks, and quickly expanded, and wisps of green smoke rose from his body.
"It's nothing, I just think you're a little too dark as a child."
Then, the ghost's "skin" was finally burned through, and a dazzling light shone through it, and the holes in his body began to expand, and a small amount of ash-like material could be seen floating out of it and dissipating.
"So I decided to add a little sunshine to your heart."
Red embodied the sun's rays with his right hand, and he knew that the ghost's only weakness under the skin was sunlight.
"No!! How could I ...... Die in such a place...... It's been-"
Bad Ban's voice stopped abruptly, and his body was completely reduced to ashes in a matter of seconds from Red's scorching sunrays, and this time even the super-energy meter didn't have time to protect the master.
In the ashes of the ghost's dissipation, Red grabbed the super-energy instrument, which had become ownerless.
"It's the responsibility of adults to punish bad kids."
——
What was once a residential area has now been razed to the ground by the aftermath of the fighting.
After seeing Red punch the bad squad and disappear as an afterimage, the wild-haired sorceress lowered her body and crept out of the place.
"Stop!"
However, her movements did not escape the eyes of Nolan, the Almighty, who blocked her way, and with a grim face grabbed her collar and lifted it up.
"What the hell have you done to them, remove your magic immediately!"
Facing the fierce Nolan, Natazar's face was pale and tear-stained, and it looked like her spirit was on the verge of collapse.
"I—I can't do that...... Otherwise, he will ......"
"I don't care who you say he is, but you don't have to wait for him to make a move, you're already going to die here!"
Nolan pinched Nataza's cheek with his other hand and gradually pressed harder, and the latter's jaw began to rattle ominously, and his eyes were full of horror and despair.
But just then, a hand gently pressed Nolan's wrist.
"Her magic has to be chanted and shouted out loud to be effective, and now that you remove her jaw, it's just making things trouble."
Seeing that Red was safe and sound, and that he was still holding the superpower meter that originally belonged to the bad class, Nolan breathed a sigh of relief and threw Natazar to the ground.
"I didn't expect you to win against that monster...... Looks like you're stronger than you were when you defeated the Regent. ”
"No, to be precise, it's just a matter of physiognomy, the natural enemy of the supermaster is Superman, Saitama's natural enemy is himself, and the natural enemy of the bear child is me - as long as you find something to restrain him, no matter how powerful the enemy is, there is a weakness."
Red crouched down and looked meaningfully at the sorceress in front of him.
"Even Mandrak and Superman Supreme, I know you're scared of them, but I can protect you from them - if you prove your worth to me."
Natazar Rataza is definitely not a good person, as the Earth Triplex of Zatana, a famous magic superheroine in the DC main universe, she is a villain who does all kinds of evil on Earth III, and under the long-term rule of the Crime Syndicate, she has also cultivated the values of obedience to the strong.
According to Red's knowledge, the last appearance of this sorceress in the original comics was during the countdown to the final crisis, when she was threatened by Superman Supreme to imprison and seize the power of the five-dimensional creature Trickster.
Although there may be suspicions that the troublemakers themselves are overdoing it, and there is a Supreme Superman who does it, the ability to control the power of the troublemakers is enough to prove that the potential of this female magician is unfathomable.
However, at the end of the plot of the original work, Natazar finally deeply understands how bad she has done to her victims in the violence of Superman Supreme.
In order to atone for his sins and to free himself from the threat of violence by Superman Supreme, the reformed Natazar secretly let go of the troublemaker, and calmly accepted his fate and let the angry Superman Supreme kill him.
Since then, this earth three sorceress has never appeared in the DC world.
Of course, now it seems that due to the butterfly effect caused by Red, this plot has also changed completely.
The good news for Natazar is that she doesn't look like she has received a bento like in the original and has become one of the ghosts of Superman Supreme; But the bad news is that in the end, she still can't escape the fate of being threatened by Superman Supreme, asking her to help take the power of others.
Only this time her spell is cast against the "superman" of other worlds in the omnipotent universe.
Red stared into Natazar's eyes, and he could see that the sorceress was not undead loyal to the Supreme Superman, but only succumbed to his power.
"Think about it, Natazar, whatever mission the Supreme Superman gave you or the bad squad is, there is no doubt that it has been declared a failure now."
Red picked up the super-energy meter that had fallen after Bad Shift's death and shook it in front of Natazar, and at this moment he clearly caught the wavering on the sorceress's face.
"With what you know about the character of the giant baby Superman, do you think he will gently comfort you when he finds out about this—or angrily punish you for your failures? Or in other words, what do you think he will do to you when you lose your usefulness? ”
Natazar's teeth chattered, and Red's words seemed to inspire some bad memories of Natazar, and she lowered her head, her tangled knuckles a little white.
Finally, she hugged Red tightly, with a hint of crying in her voice.
"Help, help me! As long as I can escape that guy's clutches, I'm willing to do anything! ”
——
"[The dislocation of the original restoration force is some]!"
Inside the Dome, with Natazar's shout, Red seemed to faintly see some golden light, floating from the Demon Boy, the Motherland, and the Supermeter in Red's hand, and burrowing into the bodies of Superman, Mister Superman, and Bald Man.
"Has it worked?"
Red glanced at the three who were still unconscious, and Natazar immediately panicked, as if he was worried that Red would not trust him.
"Success, success, must be successful, but with the injuries on their bodies, it may take some time to wake up......"
Red glanced around, the journey was much more tragic than expected, Carol was seriously injured and fell into a coma, there were still the corpses of the world's original Superman Hancock and Mary on the ground, and the motherland and the demon boy in the corner were also seriously injured that almost destroyed them......
Oh yes, they were beaten like this by Red.
Red used his surgical skills to amputate all of their prefrontal lobes, and he also broke their limbs and crushed their spines - of course, he didn't forget to use the blood and gas shunt to infuse some of the red light energy into their bodies to inhibit their ability to heal themselves.
For such rebels, Red felt that he was merciful enough not to kill them directly.
"Overlord, how's the energy replenishment?"
"It's almost back to its prime."
I saw the energetic overlord enter through the hatch of the Dome, and it was a rare opportunity to replenish the sunlight, so that this Kryptonian who had been providing energy for the operation of the Dome with blood finally recovered from that sick state.
"Very well, in that case, we're ready to go."
It had always been as if she was closing her eyes and recuperating, and she opened her eyes.
"Our next goal may be the end—"
Bang!
However, at this moment, the entire Dome suddenly shook violently, and even the harp in front of Shazam broke several strings.
Kirovalla abruptly stood up from her seat, her eyes wide in shock, and it was the first time Red had seen her so gaffe.
"How could it be...... It's ...... here."
Red sighed lightly with such an expression on his face.
"I guessed it would be like this - whether it was Bad Class or Natazar, it was just cheese on a trap. Say, who's coming? But even the last time Superman Supreme appeared, it didn't make you show such an expression......"
"Looks like it's Mandrak here, right?"
