Chapter 155 Juan and Jim

Justice League, Justice League of America, Justice League Dark, Constantine, Shazam, Supervillain Secret Society Earth 0's superheroes and villains are all about to be tricked out of their underwear by Connors.

In contrast, Connors of Earth-3's "Criminal Syndicate" didn't really lie to them.

Whether it's what he says to "Atomic Girl," or his communication with "Super Queen" and "Night Owl," it all feels incredibly real.

"Atomic Girl" hides in Connors' collar, while "Night Owl" supports the bound "Nightwing" in an attempt to persuade him.

Meanwhile, "Super Queen" is on her way to find Connors and kill "Poison Ivy" when she clashes with a femme fatale from Earth-3.

"You want to control me? You've got the wrong person."

The "Super Queen" habitually stroked her belly with one hand while holding onto the "Submission Lasso" with the other, floating in the air.

Ignoring the "poison spores" that were almost everywhere in the sky and on the ground, she smiled and said to "Poison Ivy".

The lasso of submission swung towards Ivy, intending to bind her tightly.

Unlike Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth, the target bound by the Lasso of Submission will fall into a state similar to "hypnosis".

The lasso flies extremely fast, but it still takes some time.

In less than half a second, before a normal person could react, Poison Ivy's body withered and turned to ashes like rotting leaves.

After absorbing the Green of All Things from Poison Ivy, who was on the verge of becoming a "swamp monster" on Earth 3, Ivy's strength has reached a new level.

She didn't transfer her physical body; instead, she directly separated herself from her original body, letting it rot and wither away, and then walked out from a random plant.

"What a coincidence, your lasso is useless against me too," Ivy said, scrutinizing the "Super Queen" with a critical look.

She had barely finished speaking when the "Super Queen" punched her through the chest.

"Your abilities are really not very appealing, little girl."

The "Super Queen" still had a light smile on her face. She shook her arm and tossed down the "Ivy" hanging on it.

It was still a fake body, and it was already withering and decaying while it was still hanging on her arm.

"You're even less likable. Connors said you have no obvious weaknesses, just like Wonder Woman," Ivy said calmly, her vines swaying as she walked gracefully.

The "Super Queen" retrieved the lasso of submission, hanging it around her waist, and said, clenching her fist:

"But he still chose to have you join the 'Super Villain Secret Society' and lure me out. It seems the 'Outsider' has quite a bit of confidence in you."

"Your body can move between plants, but if the attack range is large enough, you probably won't be able to dodge it, right?"

"Super Queen" plans to severely injure Ivy and then take her to some corner of Earth to inquire about Connors' whereabouts.

Before Poison Ivy could answer, Super Queen flew to her side again.

She spoke of a wide-range attack, but what she actually unleashed was a rapid attack with her speed maximized, while simultaneously holding one end of the subjugation lasso in her palm.

As long as she touches "Poison Ivy," she can easily subdue "Poison Ivy" with her Lasso of Submission.

The "Super Queen," dressed in a black, tight-fitting strapless suit, moved around "Poison Ivy" at a speed too fast for the naked eye to see.

Each step she took left a deep crater in the ground, and her fists compressed the air to a high degree, causing continuous booming explosions.

She was using speed to simulate a large-scale attack.

Compared to the speed of "Super Queen", "Poison Ivy" is quite slow.

Ivy remained as elegant as ever, her body gradually decaying and reappearing in other locations, as if taking a stroll, and then spoke to confirm:

"Even though you're holding your breath, your body structure means you still need to breathe while speaking, right?"

The "Super Queen's" extremely fast figure suddenly froze.

Ivy continued strolling leisurely, speaking slowly:

"Since the air is full of poisonous spores, it makes sense that they could grow into plants, right?"

The powerful aura belonging to "Poison Ivy" has never disappeared, and now it is being unleashed at its fullest extent:

"I am Poison Ivy, and I can appear anywhere on Earth where plants grow."

Ivy's hand withered into a twig, and when it reappeared, it was already inside the "Super Queen's" chest, clutching her heart.

"Behave yourself, or I'll crush it."

The "Super Queen" stood motionless, her expression shifting several times:

"You can't kill me, I'm carrying the 'Outsider's' child."

Poison Ivy ignored her "threat":

"I have plenty of ways to get the child out of your belly, so I advise you to behave yourself."

"Super Queen": "---You'd be perfect for joining the crime syndicate."

"Nobody cares about joining any syndicate. If Connors hadn't told me he'd spare your life, you would have been drained dry by the plants the moment you saw me."

"Poison Ivy" Ivy said with a sneer, manipulating the plant to transform into a fierce tiger, then sat on it and tied "Super Queen" to the back.

"Where are you taking me?" the "Super Queen" asked. Her heart was being encased by spores she inhaled while speaking, and she no longer had any will to resist.

"Just stay put until Connors comes looking for you," Ivy said. "He should be at your headquarters, the Justice League Watchtower, right now."

In the Justice League's watchtower, Connors watches as Nightwing unleashes a torrent of profanity upon Nightowen:

"Who the hell are you?"

"Night Owl" handed over a glass of water:

"You should have some water—my name is Thomas Wayne, and in another world, you call me the brother you never had."

"And you are the brother I have always longed for."

The two aren't on the same page yet, because "Nightwing" is still ranting:

Are you out of your mind?

Connors, who had just started to smile, saw Nightwing glance at him and quickly suppressed his smile, waiting for Nightowen to speak.

"A lot of people think that way. When the 'outsider' told me there was another Earth, another Grayson, I fucking thought I was going crazy."

"Night Owl" removed his mask, revealing his true face to "Nightwing":

"I know you are not the same Richard Grayson I knew; that guy is dead."

"My world has completely disappeared, including Gotham. But here, I have a chance to set things right again."

"To achieve this goal, I need your help, Richard."

"I don't care what the other members of the Syndicate want; I want something else."

Connors' expression changed slightly, not because something unexpected had happened, but because he was now focusing most of his attention on the "Super Queen" and "Poison Ivy" who were fighting.

He gave Harley and Ivy each a "Kusama Man" so they could ask him for help when they needed it.

But now it seems that the wavy-haired "Poison Ivy" didn't need his help at all, and single-handedly took care of the "Super Queen".

With the battle on Ivy's side over, Nightwing and Night Owl started fighting again in front of Connors.

Nightwing had somehow freed himself from the chains binding his hands. He wrapped the chains around his wrists and punched Night Owl:

"I don't care what you want, all I want is to get out of here!"

"Night Owl" took a punch but neither dodged nor avoided it. Instead, he clenched his fists and struck "Nightwing" on the left and right cheeks respectively.

Why?

"Your mask has been removed, and the whole world now knows your real name."

"Your home in Chicago has been razed to the ground, and your friends have been hunted down by 'supervillains'."

While relentlessly punching Nightwing, Night Owl tried to reason with Nightwing that he hadn't been beaten for nothing, and Nightwing returned the blows with equal force.

But Night Owl didn't go for the kill, while Nightwing showed no mercy. After a brief period of evenly matched strength, Nightwing had already strangled Night Owl's neck with a chain.

"Batman is dead. The world you knew is gone forever, just like mine. You need to start over."

I will give you that opportunity.

Even with his neck being strangled, "Night Owl" continued to persuade "Nightwing".

Connors stood aside, not getting involved in the fight between the two, and even turned to look at Nightwing's rear end:

"Hello, Juan, and Jim."

The two men, locked in a fierce fight, had no time to spare for Connors; Nightwing increased the force of his blows.

"Thanks, but there's no need for that."

"Night Owl," struggling to breathe from the chains, managed to say:

"I don't need you to help me destroy your world, Richard. I need your help to save it from the crime syndicate."

After saying this, "Night Owl" grabbed "Nightwing's" arm and slammed him to the ground from behind:

"Your world has gone astray. The Justice League could have cleaned up the criminals and taken complete control long ago. At least on this point, I agree with Superman."

"But his other ideas were completely wrong. His goal was nothing more than to enslave the earth and accumulate power for himself—but the world doesn't have that much kryptonite."

"Night Owl" was ultimately stronger; he lifted "Nightwing" from the ground, grabbed him by the neck, and slammed him against the wall.

"This world is either ruled by him, or it's under my control; that's your only choice. Will you help me stop the Crime Syndicate?"

Nightwing struggled symbolically for a moment, but he had already been persuaded by Night Owl:

"Oh well."

"Night Owl" released his grip and supported "Nightwing":

"But before we're ready, I have to lock you up, otherwise the rest of the Syndicate will kill you the moment they find you've broken free."

At this point, "Night Owl" glanced at Connors, leaving Connors completely bewildered:

"Why are you looking at me? — Oh, I'm also a member of the crime syndicate."

These words immediately startled Nightwing.

Unlike what "Night Owl" said, "Nightwing," as a member of the "Teen Titans," naturally knew that Connors had previously been active on Earth and had always been a partner of the "Justice League."

But upon learning that Connors had another identity, Nightwing instinctively rushed over to kill him. "-You better go back and get back to normal. I used to hold you when you were little." Connors waved his hand, and several vines flew out from the seeds in his pocket, binding Nightwing tightly.

He looked at "Night Owl":

"Are you coming to heaven with me now, or do you have other plans?"

One of the things he promised "Night Owl" has been accomplished; the only thing left is to reunite with his younger brother in the heavens where "Batman" Bruce Wayne is.

"No, I want to go—"

Before "Night Owl" could finish speaking, Connors had already disappeared.

He was waiting for "Night Owl's" "no." Going to heaven could happen anytime, but "Super Queen" had already been tied up for quite a while.

Connors needs to meet Louise Lane, who is from Earth 3.
