Chapter 255: Chapter 128: Batman vs. Superman, Superman’s Disdain! (Part 2)

A vicious light flickered in Superman’s eyes.

"First, I will rip out your tongue so you can never utter another word to insult me. Then, I will crush every inch of your bones, but I won’t let you die easily. I want you to crawl and sniff the filth of Gotham like a true stray dog, letting everyone see the consequences of defying a god."

The pressure coming from Superman’s hands continued to increase. Bruce’s body suddenly stiffened as his bones let out teeth-gritting creaks, as if they would be completely pulverized in the next second.

Beneath the helmet, his face was as pale as paper from the excruciating pain. His throat was constricted so tightly that he couldn’t breathe, and his consciousness began to blur.

Yet, there was not the slightest hint of fear in his eyes—only a burning, icy resolve.

This was the trap he had set, using his own life as bait, solely to wait for the perfect moment to counterattack.

"Heh..."

Bruce laughed indistinctly. Although he couldn’t make a sound, a few words could be clearly deciphered from the shape of his mouth.

"Kal-El, you’ve lost..."

Just as Superman sneered, at the exact moment his fingers were about to tear Bruce’s lips apart...

Buzz! A golden electrical arc, more blinding than lightning, exploded within the shelter without any warning!

Space seemed to be sliced open by an invisible blade. At this moment, time was compressed and stretched to its absolute limit.

A red figure appeared as if teleporting, his body still wreathed in the lingering streams of the Speed Force. It was none other than the Flash, Barry Allen, rushing back just in time.

Within a mere few seconds, he had found the last batch of Kryptonite from the abandoned warehouse in Gotham and returned at a speed surpassing the speed of light.

At this moment, he tightly gripped several pieces of Kryptonite emitting a faint green glow. Before Superman could even react, he accurately threw the Kryptonite in his hand at the ground surrounding Superman!

The green fluorescence instantly lit up. Like water droplets tossed into boiling oil, it greedily gnawed away at the golden halo surrounding Superman.

That halo dissipated at a visible rate, like ice and snow meeting a raging fire.

Superman’s expression instantly shifted from ferocious to astonished, and his body began to tremble uncontrollably.

"Catch, Bruce!"

Barry’s voice carried the space-time distortion of high-speed movement. Almost simultaneously, he tossed the largest piece of Kryptonite toward Bruce.

Superman tried to reach out and stop it, but he found that his strength was draining away rapidly.

Kryptonite, the fragments from the explosion of the planet Krypton, emitted radiation that could destroy Kryptonian cells saturated with yellow sun energy. It was his ultimate weakness.

Surrounded by a massive amount of Kryptonite, even breathing became difficult for him. He could only watch helplessly as the Kryptonite fell into Bruce’s hands.

The moment he caught the Kryptonite, Bruce used all the strength in his body to viciously punch Superman in the face.

The once indestructible Man of Steel was now exceptionally fragile. Superman let out a muffled groan and crashed to the ground. Within the radiation range of the Kryptonite, he didn’t even have the strength to crawl back up.

Bruce wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, but a trace of astonishment flashed through his heart.

According to the plan, Alex should have made his move by now. Why was there still no sign of activity?

However, the flames of revenge quickly overpowered his doubts. He grabbed Superman by the collar and hauled him up from the ground, his gaze ice-cold.

"Look me in the eye, Clark Kent. It is time for you to pay the price for everything you have done!"

He drew a specially made alloy dagger from his waist and thrust it toward Superman’s heart without hesitation.

However, the expected sensation of penetration did not occur. The moment the dagger touched Superman’s chest, it acted like plastic hitting solid steel—instantly bending and snapping in half!

Bruce’s pupils shrank abruptly, his face full of disbelief.

Superman slowly raised his head. A ferocious smile curled at the corner of his mouth, and his eyes were brimming with mockery.

"Bruce Wayne, you have disappointed me too much. Did you really think you could kill me by relying on Barry Allen and a few rocks of Kryptonite?"
