Chapter 179 Be My 'Fuse'
"Next up is Lex Luthor's turn!"
Luthor wielded Batman's "Lightning Scepter," along with the "Kusama Man."
Sinestro, the "Yellow Light," and Black Adam flew over, and Luthor handed the "Lightning Scepter" to them:
"This looks like some kind of lightning rod, Seneca. I want you to stick it in that guy's body."
"Black Adam, you summoned magical lightning to strike him; that's the key to defeating that guy."
Seneca and Black Adam immediately chased after "Zanza".
Lex Luthor then looked at the "Kusama Man" in his hand:
"What I need to do is to 'insure' this plan."
"Outsider, I need your help."
In Gotham Forest, while the whole world was in darkness, Connors led everyone in the Mysterious House except for "Giant Girl" to sunbathe.
Rachel Ross, who plays "Raven," is also there, diligently eating her ice cream.
Connors held the cream in one hand and spread it on the meat with the other.
Every time a dollop is applied, the greedy ravens will devour it completely.
"How do you have this thing when the whole world is without power?"
"Atomic Girl" sat on Connors' shoulder and asked curiously, her back against Connors' ear, enjoying the sun.
"Do you want some too?" Connors asked.
"I don't like cream, I like ice cream," Atom Girl said lazily.
"—Is there a difference?" Connors asked, puzzled. He wasn't an expert in this area and didn't quite understand the intricacies. "Mmm," Rachel, the "Raven," mumbled, her lips smeared with white cream.
"Oh, oh." Connors nodded, reaching out to stroke "Raven's" head. "Well said, here's a reward for you."
Just as he was about to light a cigarette afterward, he heard Lex Luthor's voice in his ear:
"Outsider, I need your help."
Connors nodded, his voice carrying across millions of miles to the Justice League's watchtower, reaching Lex Luthor's ears:
"I'll toss 'Superpower' over there with you guys later, I don't know where that kid flew off to—oh, found him, he's flying towards you."
He spoke in a relaxed tone, as if he were chatting casually with Luther, but cold sweat was breaking out on Luther's bald head.
"Superb?"
Standing beside Lex Luthor, "Captain Cold" gripped his ice spear tightly.
"Luther, I suggest you get a helmet made right away. It's definitely your reflective head that's attracting them here."
Lex Luthor shook his head; he knew better than Captain Cold why Superpower was looking for him.
The last bit of kryptonite on Earth is in my body!
That was the Kryptonite ring that he'd taken from Batman along with the Lightning Scepter.
This kryptonite ring was used to lure out a "Superpower," while the ring used to deal with him was another ring—the "Divine Power Ring" that Lex Luthor had intercepted.
"Outsider, I need you to be my 'fuse'."
Lex Luthor didn't have time to say much.
Blue and white lightning struck down from the sky as "Yellow Lantern" Seneca and "Black Adam" clashed with "Zanza".
This magical lightning bolt was summoned by "Black Adam," and Sinestro planted the "Lightning Scepter" into Zamsa's body.
It drew all the lightning away.
Click!
A massive bolt of lightning struck Black Adam and Zamsa squarely, but Zamsa grinned maliciously, his eyes flashing with electricity.
"Is that all the power your lightning has?"
"Is that all you've got?"
He appeared completely unharmed; even the flames on his head, which served as his hair, showed no signs of extinguishing.
"S**t." Captain Cold exclaimed in shock, looking up.
The sound he made drew Zansha's attention back to this place, and this time Zansha held back.
Even though Lex Luthor and Captain Cold are just ordinary people, he now harbors a strong desire to kill them.
Zamza then swooped down, baring his gleaming teeth, and punched Lex Luthor's armor, denting it.
"Loser? I'm actually this weak in this world."
Zamza seemed to be using Lex Luthor as a punching bag, pounding the ground from east to west:
"I'm stronger than you, more capable than you, more outstanding than you—? Why am I so weak in this world?"
Zamza pinned Lex Luthor to the ground, preparing to rip out his heart.
But Lex Luthor coughed up blood and struggled to speak:
"Perhaps—you're right, but like you said—you and I are the same person."
Alexander Luthor of Earth-3 is Lex Luthor of Earth-0; they have the same appearance, the same physique, and the same voice.
"Zanza!!!"
The shout of "Zansha!" was not uttered by Alexander Luther, but by Lex Luther.
A thick, black magical lightning bolt descended from the sky and struck Alexander Luther under the influence of the "Lightning Scepter".
Zamsa, who once had piercing eyes and a ferocious face, lost his power and returned to a thin, frail physique.
"Praise befits you."
He had barely uttered half a word when Lex Luthor covered Zamza's mouth with his hand, choking the rest of the word in his throat.
Then Lex Luthor drew the Lightning Scepter and used it as a short sword to stab Zamza in the heart.
Zamsa spat a mouthful of blood onto Lex Luthor's green armor. Luthor coldly stared at his opponent, slowly increasing the pressure on his hand. "I may not be as strong as you, or as powerful as you, Alexander Luthor."
"But I'm smarter than you."
Earth 3, Alexander Luther "Zanza" is offline.
"You have the last Kryptonite! Hand it over!"
Zanza's body was pierced and torn apart by a sudden burst of heat vision before it even hit the ground.
"Superpower" flew over, chasing after the last remaining kryptonite on Lex Luthor's body:
"I really have to give you a lot of praise. Not only did you hold out for so long, but you even managed to kill Zamsa."
"Now, I advise you to surrender. I'm not some brainless idiot like Zansha—ah!"
While Superpower was speaking, Lex Luthor aimed his palm cannon at Superpower.
Also stolen from Batman's Wayne Enterprises headquarters—a solar-powered gun radiating scorching sunlight, aimed directly at "Superpower."
But Superpower was indeed as he said; he wasn't a brainless idiot like Zamza. His heat vision shattered Lex Luthor's solar gun in his palm instantly.
"It seems you've run out of weapons."
Lex Luthor, watching the fist grow larger in his line of sight, calmly said:
"No, there's one more—"
"outsider!!!"
He shouted with all the strength he had ever mustered, and aimed the "Kusama Man" he was holding tightly at the "Superb" (a reference to a specific weapon).
Unfortunately, "Kusama-jin" did not react, and "Outsider" did not make a move.
Superpower's fist was getting closer and closer to Lex Luthor's bald head.
Just then, the moon, which had been blocking the sunlight, was moved away, and the satellite connected to Lex Luthor's armor told him that "The Outsider" had pushed the moon away.
The dark sky was finally bathed in sunlight once more, and Superpower's fist finally landed on Lex Luthor's face, but then fell limply to the ground.
Lex Luthor grabbed Superpower's limp fist and, under the blazing sun, slipped the Power Ring onto his hand:
"The weakest guy in the whole world—"
Superb couldn't even stand up straight; he collapsed to his knees with a thud, burying his face in the ground.
"Kill me"
Luther stood in front of Superpower, looking down at him:
"No, you'll just live like this, Superb. 'Kill me'? Give me a break."
