"Let me guess, you're planning to make Clay Face pretend to be Aquaman again." Amanda Waller said: "But do you really think you can fool him on that alone? ”

"Of course not." Chen Tao said: "The black manta ray has been chasing Aquaman for too long, and I have been obsessed with him for too long. ”

"In a way, he is the most knowledgeable Aquaman in the world, a lifelong enemy."

陈韬 says:

"Just as it's impossible for even a good actor like Clay Face to pretend to be Bane (Joker:?) As if he had deceived me, it was clear that a clay face pretending to be Aquaman would not have been able to fool the Black Manta Ray, let alone put an end to his anger. ”

"So what do you want to do?"

"I've told you everything, send the living Sea King to him and let him kill him."

"I remember you were Batman, not Riddler."

"My words are literal. The mastermind behind this is Black Manta Ray, and he doesn't want to kill Aquaman. ”

While communicating information with Amanda Waller through the on-board computer, he reverted his head back to Batman's pointed ears, retaining only all the mechanical state inside, and re-transforming the mouth and nose like an ornament.

Then he walked up to Arthur, the king of the sea, in front of him, stretched out his hand, and patted the other man on the shoulder in a friendly way.

"Huh? Batman, what's the matter? ”

Arthur, the king of the sea who was still chatting with the two Kryptonians and was at a loss for the situation, turned his head curiously: "We are about to go to the prison in Atlantis. Russ, the leader of the Flood Beast Order, who had previously plotted to attack the surface, was imprisoned here. ”

"If you could, you could make a video and prove to the U.S. that they're just a bunch of terrorists," he said. There are terrorists in every country, don't they? It is absolutely absurd to blame an entire country for the actions of terrorists. ”

He pulled over a young girl dressed like a seahorse: "Oh, by the way, I just saw that you seemed to be talking to someone on the phone with two fingers on the headset, so I didn't bother you." This is the regent Tula, who just came to meet us when you were calling. ”

He pulled another man with a scar on his face: "This is Commander Mook, the commander of the Atlantean Vanguard Army. ”

The regent Tula nodded slightly in respect, but Commander Mook made no secret of his hostility: "Your Majesty, the people on land will only take away our freedom and domination, you shouldn't invite them to Atlantis, it's definitely a mistake-"

"Enough, Mook! Shut up! But before Commander Mook could finish his sentence, he was interrupted by the regent Tula.

"Excuse me, I don't have time to bother with your dispute right now." Chen Tao interrupted the regent Tula again.

He ignored the other party, but greeted loudly:

"Hey, hey, hey—everybody look, come here, look at me, look at me. Right. Stop for a moment. ”

Two Kryptonian superboys and supergirls walked over in a daze. Arthur, the Aquaman, who was stupid and didn't know what was going to happen, followed.

"Be quiet for a moment, and listen to me first. I'm going to make an announcement. ”

Everyone is waiting for what Batman has to say.

"We're going to kidnap Aquaman Arthur and give him to Black Manta Ray!"

“？”

The people present were stunned at the same time, and no one's mind turned for a while.

At that moment of lightning, silver-white particles surged on Chen Tao's body, dyeing his body into a red death demon state bordering gold and red in an instant.

Chen Tao grabbed the super boy Connor, who was still in a daze—he really picked up the whole person, and used it like a one-legged bronze man with a Qimen weapon, and took him around their group five or six hundred times in place at a speed that exceeded the limit of normal human reactions, and then, by inertia, he smashed this big living person on the head of Aquaman Arthur with a bang.

Forgive me, he didn't have a crowbar on hand, and he didn't have anything hard enough to stun a thick-skinned superhuman like Arthur, Aquaman.

Anyone who has killed a pig knows that the point is to directly open the pig's head with the first hammer, so that the pig will completely lose the ability to resist, otherwise the pig will run around screaming, and it will only be more troublesome to catch, and the same is true for kidnapping.

So this time, with a quick fight, Aquaman originally thought that they had all talked about things, and the next thing was just to go through a process, so he was defenseless at all.

Caught off guard, he was knocked out directly and neatly.

"Huh?"

The young regent Tula, the future girl of the water, widened her eyes. She made a prolonged voice:

"Eh, eh, eh, ——?"

With a bang, the regent Tula's eyes rolled and he was beaten and fainted.

Supergirl appeared behind her, cautiously raising her small fists.

"You ......"

Bang!

Chen Tao once again picked up Connor, the one-legged bronze man superboy, and Commander Mook soon followed suit.

"What the hell is going on?!"

After putting down the two courtiers of Arthur of the Sea King, the super girl Kara couldn't help but complain loudly: "Why did you hit someone suddenly? ”

She touched her fist a little aggrievedly: "I have to fight with me!" ”

"I don't have time to explain to you, get in the car." Chen Tao said.

"What do you mean?"

"I'm going back to my old job."

In the next second, the big black bat didn't say a word, left and right put Super Boy Connor and Super Girl on his shoulders, and then scooped up Aquaman Arthur and clamped it under his ribs, put his feet together, and with a bang, it became two wheels.

“？”

Rumble!

The flow of water does not stop the turning tires at all. The steel rim and rubber on the tire automatically flip up, as if it becomes the propeller of an underwater submarine, providing power for the whole person.

"What?"

Not far away, an Atlantean finally found their king rolling his eyes and being caught under the ribs by a large bat, and the alarm bell rang out.

"Sit tight." Chen Tao said: "I'm going to start sprinting. ”

Before Supergirl and Connor, who had just been knocked on the Sea King's head as a weapon and knocked his own head dizzy, answered, Chen Tao's whole person rushed out like an arrow off the string.

Not far away, the shield of Atlantis had already been opened in advance with the magic of the bat mage when he entered, just waiting for his escape.

……

……

……

Azores, Punta de Alta.

Temporary command base.

Finally.

A long-cherished wish for many years.

We don't hide forever, we have to let the world know that we exist and that we are capable ......"

The black manta ray spoke.

At this time, he was sitting in the . In the conference hall, his gaze lingered on the faces of every high-level executive.

He sat on the throne and looked down on them, as if looking down on a chessboard from the edge of the world.

He was calm, but he was excited, and he was addicted to the feeling.

He felt as if he had been split in half, as silent as grass and trees, and as determined as an antelope flying over a cliff with his life.

“…… We'll die when we're ready, and I know Arthur Ku Ray and Batman better than any of you...... You should never underestimate him, you are using him as a punching bag to bring about your own destruction, and he will fight back......"

The black manta ray twists a golden ball under the table.

This was the secret of his previous ability to teleport through the golden vortex spatial door: the Death King's Treasure, the Golden Orb.

It is one of the six pieces of the Death King, with a long-distance teleportation function, and is one of the six artifacts created by the ancestor of the ancient Atlantis King, the Death King.

It was through his temporary legal status that he worked for Batman that he managed to find the artifact and become his owner.

He has been chasing a goal for most of his life.

Revenge.

Becoming a mercenary to make money is for revenge, and working for Batman to get a legal identity is also for better revenge, he studied science and single-handedly created this high-tech armor specifically for Aquaman, also for revenge.

No one knows how much he has worked for this goal, no one knows how many difficult struggles he has experienced.

This is the Black Manta Ray, a super monster that has no superpowers, but can rely on its armor and fighting instincts to stand side by side with first-line villains like Luthor, the Joker, and Brainiac. Even at its lowest point, the black manta ray never had the idea of giving up revenge.

That misunderstanding of killing each other's fathers changed forever not only for Aquaman Arthur Curry, but also for him. From that moment on, their fates were firmly entangled.

The black manta ray was dead on the night that Aquaman Arthur killed his father.

Deep down, he knew exactly what had caused this misfortune, how he had caused Arthur Curry's wrath, and he knew that it was him, not his father, who had died that night.

A great sense of guilt and grief engulfed him, devouring him alive and sucking his bones and marrow. Then there was unforgettable hatred, and finally it turned into a raging rage.

The goal called revenge will always drive the black manta ray, become the meaning of his life, and make him the walking dead.

Other than that, there was nothing else in his life for a long time.

He was expectant, terrified.

He has been looking forward to and achieving a goal for many years: to murder Aquaman, and he is terrified that he has lost the goal of revenge, and why he exists. But he was looking forward to it more after all, so he didn't hesitate to do it when he decided to do it.

"The activation program is ready, sir, ready to launch at any time, but ......"

The black manta rays looked up at each other.

"You know the code, soldier. Launch. ”

"Sir, I'm a little worried, once activated, this thing can't be stopped." The soldier said, "The Hairy Man is a monster that only knows how to destroy, and it does not distinguish between friend and foe. ”

"I'm a fisherman, don't question me. Let's launch. ”

“…… Be. ”

The soldier maneuvered on the dashboard for a while:

"Starting...... The launch site was the Atlantic seabed, Pharos Reef, 80 miles northeast of Atlantis. ”

"Activation complete."

"Wait, sir, there's a problem. The seismic detector reported that the protective box was damaged. This means that there may be a shift in the path of the hairy man. ”

"Launch confirmed. Leave him alone. ”

"Sir? We have to select targets while basic navigation is still available, and once we reach the point where we are firing at full power, we lose control. If the route he's programmed in his head is offset, it might end up on land—"

"You know where the goal is."

Black Manta said.

"His home."

Hairy people who have been enchanted by the Meditation Mites can nullify the teleportation spells on the Atlantean shield, and will return immediately even if they teleport away for a short time.

With his unrivaled strange powers, the hairy man was able to directly use brute force to break through Atlantis' magic shield and knock a large "hole" into the shield.

Immediately after that, the Blood Mage Atositas, who pilots the Chemical Waste Monster, will follow.

After passing through the hole that had been knocked out and entering Atlantis, he was able to use his magic to completely dismantle Atlantis' shield from within.

Next......

The Hairy Man will be unstoppable, single-handedly slicing through the entire country of millions of people, while the Chemical Waste Monster will spit venom and wantonly pollute the entire Atlantean Sea.

In order to deal with the two existing Kryptonite, it had already eaten two tons of artificial kryptonite in advance, although these kryptonite impurities were too many and the effect was extremely poor, but it could not hold up the large amount. Combined with the highly toxic chemical objects in the body of the Chemical Waste Monster, it is even more deadly.

The [Outsider] Crisis Commissioner, who has been placed in the U.S. government and has been mentally controlled, will play a cooperative role at the same time, sending the real U.S. military and the government's hidden "hole cards" that have not been exposed specifically to superheroes, and attack Atlantis together.

They will block the message from the Justice League, cut off Batman from contact with the Justice League, and the important thing is to hit a time lag when everyone reacts.

Everything is ready, and even if Batman and Aquaman Arthur are able to stop the Hairy Man and Atositas by personal force, the chemical waste monster's horde will be highly toxic and will completely pollute the Atlantean seas.

Millions of people have been displaced, and Aquaman is in pain and has lost everything. This is the most luscious revenge, and it is also the scene that the black manta ray dreams of.

Not to mention that the United States will really participate in this battle of destruction of Atlantis, there will always be survivors in Atlantis, and they will become mortal enemies with the United States under their own guidance.

And what about Arthur, the king of the seas, who had been guiding Atlantis and the landers to live in peace? And what will his compatriots think of him?

I'm a black manta ray, and I'm in action.

Do you want to bring land and sea together? Do you regard this illusory ambition as your goal in life?

Why are you! You are not eligible!

You're so unrealistic.

The world fears you, and they should fear you.

You have ruined my world, you have broken me. Those people...... Arthur. All those people you're trying so hard to impress, they don't know your best kept secrets, do they? Not as well as I do.

You're a murderer.

This kind and noble king, who wants to be loved by the world, is a murderer.

You'll never be complete, Arthur Curry, never.

The destruction of you and all that you represent is what matters. There will be no compromises, and there will be no hesitation.

Today, he is finally going to do it himself......

Rumble!

At this moment, with a deafening explosion, a half-human, half-car, half-bat monster actually directly crashed into the outer wall of the mobile base ship, and stopped directly in front of the black manta ray in the middle of the flying building materials, making the sound of Batman.

"It's you, Black Manta Ray! I've found you, old friend! ”

In the black manta ray's dull gaze, he saw that the monster shrank its body and turned into the form of Batman, grinning at the corners of its mouth, and casually threw the half-dead Aquaman, the object of revenge in his heart, and the enemy he wanted to solve with all his heart, directly to the ground so easily.

"Why don't you just kill an Aquaman? What a big deal. You told me earlier, didn't I help you? ”

Black Manta just watched Batman pull out a large mess of weapons, which looked like the standard weapons of the regular army of Atlantis, including firearms and cold weapons, and piled a small hill on the ground in a sloppy manner, and then pushed it directly in front of him:

"Come, pick and choose, use whatever you want, use whatever you want, kill the Sea King, the main thing is a sense of ceremony."

"Do you like it? Are you satisfied? Do you feel happy? Do you feel fulfilled? Do you find this meaningful? ”

The black manta ray stared blankly at all this in front of him.

He wants revenge, but ...... Not in such a way!
