Chapter 339: Ch.338 Done Showing Off and Now You Want to Leave?

"Black Manta!"

As soon as Arthur saw Black Manta, he seemed to lose his sanity. He clenched his fists, channeling all his power in an effort to break free from the grip of the Stasis Force.

Nearby, Cheetah licked her paw with a mischievous smile, then lunged towards Diana.

"Ah!!!"

Diana roared, also breaking free from the Stasis Force's constraints, swinging a punch towards Cheetah.

At the same time, Arthur swung his fist towards Black Manta.

But what happened next was completely different from what was expected. Both Diana and Arthur's fists ended up striking each other's faces, causing them both to spit out blood as they flew backward like sacks of flour.

Grodd was ecstatic, scratching his ears in delight as he laughed heartily: "Haha, within the Stasis Force, all you see are illusions of the past!"

At this moment, both Cheetah and Black Manta were still standing behind the gorilla, with Cheetah even playing with her nails, blowing on them in boredom.

Black Manta spoke in a low voice: "Let's go, girl. We still have proper business to attend to."

Grodd also nodded in agreement: "Leave these four to me. Go get the item."

Barry was moving as slow as a tortoise in front of Grodd. He was doing his best to channel the Speed Force to resist the Stasis Force, but it was clearly not working well. His face was flushed, and his legs were cramping. In all this time, he hadn't moved even a meter.

Without the Speed Force, Barry's lack of physical strength became all the more apparent. Unlike Diana or Arthur, he couldn't rely on sheer power to break free from the constraints of the Stasis Force.

"Come on, Barry, run faster, give it all you've got." Grodd's face was full of mockery as he crossed his arms and taunted the Flash.

Barry, spurred by Grodd's taunting, pushed the Speed Force to its limits. Since causing the Flashpoint, he had decided never to do this again, but now, to counter the Stasis Force, he had no choice but to run with all his strength.

But for some reason, the more Speed Force Barry generated, the stronger the Stasis Force grew—as if there was no end to it.

"No, Barry, stop! You're fueling the Stasis Force!" Su Ming immediately realized what was happening. He knew that the Stasis Force was the counterpart to the Speed Force. It seemed they weren't opposing forces that weakened each other but rather grew in strength together.

Though Su Ming couldn't move, he could have the Cloak of Levitation fetch items from his backpack. The gemstones given by Doctor Manhattan were all stored in a small pouch at the bottom of his gear.

With the extra energy supply, the cloak brimmed with power, zooming like a lightning bolt and positioning Su Ming right in front of Grodd.

Even Grodd, who was a genius, realized the plan had gone awry. He swung his massive fist toward Su Ming.

The giant hand wasn't the size of a cooking pot—it was more like an iron cauldron, covered in thick black fur as it whooshed towards Su Ming.

The Cloak of Levitation quickly maneuvered Su Ming out of the way. Such an attack was child's play for the mystical cloak.

The monocular eye of Deathstroke's mask left a crimson streak in the air, and Grodd's punch swung into thin air. Grodd tried to use some of his psychic power to control Deathstroke.

But the mental energy seemed to disappear without a trace, like throwing a pebble into the ocean.

Grodd's powers were completely countered by Su Ming. Who gave him the courage to stand before Deathstroke?

Even without an Nth metal skull, there were psychic shielding devices sold on the black market. A button-sized one could be stuck to your temple for a few hundred thousand dollars—plenty of villains used them to counter the Martian Manhunter and Miss Martian.

Besides that, any Legionnaire Power Ring had the ability to shield against psychic invasion. Did Grodd think mental control was invincible?

"You're dead." Su Ming chuckled coldly. "Cloak, hit him."

Without hesitation, the Cloak of Levitation surged forward like a missile, propelling Su Ming into Grodd's chest. The ape tried to block the impact with his arms.

"That didn't hurt! Haha, it was like a mosquito bite." Grodd tried to grab Deathstroke to tear him apart—his favorite activity was ripping humans in half.

Su Ming sighed as Grodd held him pinned to his chest. "Among gorillas, you're indeed clever, but compared to humans, you're still lacking. Didn't the people backing you tell you? Never provoke Deathstroke!"

Suddenly, Grodd realized that Deathstroke was turning into a porcupine. Sharp, silver spikes shot out from his armor.

These fearsome spikes penetrated Su Ming's promethium armor, pierced Grodd's Nth metal armor, and drove deep into the gorilla's muscular body.

It happened so fast and quietly, more easily than cutting through paper.
