I'm Gorilla Grodd.
I was born in the heart of Africa, near the Congo Basin.
There lies Orangutan City, my hometown. Because of a meteorite carrying the Speed Force, our tribe's thinking was accelerated by the Speed Force and they gained super-high intelligence. Therefore, we have worshiped the Speed Force as a god throughout the ages.
This is a stupid move. The ignorant ancestors thought that lightning contained gods, which was all nonsense.
The so-called speed force is just a natural phenomenon, just like water flow and fire.
If he doesn't approve of us, then what we should do is to take action directly...snatch it back!
Gorilla Grodd stood on top of the tallest building in the surrounding area, looking down at Midtown...the hometown of The Flash.
Blue sky and white clouds, the years are quiet and peaceful.
It was truly the most beautiful moment.
Gorilla Grodd thought.
People built a statue of the Flash, with a shining golden body and an inscription underneath.
People come and go, and countless people take photos under this statue, as if they are worshiping their gods.
Grodd looked at the bank not far across the street from the Flash Memorial Museum, and then he turned his attention to a cafe on the street.
He knew that the weather wizard was there at this time, and Elsa, who had been controlled by him, was by his side. The turtle man not far away was also ready with Petty.
Everything is leisurely, slow and arranged.
Gorilla Grodd is starting to like this feeling.
Captain Cold and Heatwave began to cause riots in the streets. They openly attacked the bank and knocked down the statue of The Flash not far away. The street suddenly became chaotic——
Just as I, King Grodd, expected.
Grodd squinted his eyes, took out a banana from his arms, ate it, and then quietly threw the peel downstairs.
He doesn’t want his collaborators to catch him eating bananas. Gorilla, banana, these two words are linked together which may cause some silly misunderstandings.
He hates it when others think of him as a stupid monkey who can be dismissed with a banana, but fortunately no one dares to think so now.
Because he is King Grodd and he wears a crown!
On the street, the Weather Wizard appears as planned in the script and fights with Captain Cold who attacks him. Seeing the former captain who had caused him to lose control of his super powers at every turn, the weather wizard suddenly became furious, and the cold captain, whose mind was completely controlled, also used his killer moves without mercy.
Grodd, on the other hand, is still thinking about The Flash.
The two-person tall orangutan held its chin, like a sad girl, thinking deeply.
He lowered his head and turned a deaf ear to everything he designed below.
Those humans. They adore you so much, Flash.
They treat you like a god. But...I can always get a glimpse...
Your deep will.
Your darkest secret.
Secrets you don’t dare tell your family and friends.
The real you...
He will always be the kid who couldn't save his mother.
A young man who is unable to prove his father's innocence.
A man who has nothing but his job.
The one no one loves.
Barry Allen, your life is at a standstill. Until you meet the Speed Force...until you become The Flash!
Gorilla Grodd saw the crimson runner sprinting from a distance.
You have friends, you have the ability to catch the real murderer of your mother, you have the opportunity to prove your father's innocence, you have everything...
The Speed Force makes you unique, and the Speed Force gives you the life you dream of.
You hide and cherish your abilities, because deep down, you know...
Without the Speed Force, you're nothing!
Grodd opened his mouth, grinning silently.
He saw Turtleman appear next to the Weather Wizard with Flash's girlfriend Patty, just as the Flash was caught between Captain Cold and Heat Wave.
He stood up.
Hundreds of meters away, he controlled Elsa and spoke the lines he had prepared in advance:
"You don't understand the burden of responsibility!"
"I killed my husband for this family!"
Grodd laughed softly.
He has already arranged the script.
The other two members of the Rogue Gang, Mirror Master and Golden Glider, have received his message as Captain Cold, and all the actors are fully in place.
When the Weather Wizard kills the Flash's girlfriend, the two of them have completely formed a deadly feud. At this point, it's useless to say anything.
He turned to look at the lightning rod next to him. The crazier the Flash became, the more speed this instrument could absorb...
"What? You killed my brother Claudio? Oh, I actually knew this a long time ago."
Grodd suddenly stiffened.
"You can do it if you want, but we are family, Claudio is dead, and I can't lose another family member, so let it be, I won't pursue it."
?
Grodd felt like his ape brain had stopped.
call.
He shook his head and thought quickly.
Because the Weather Wizard's super power needs to be completely out of control, he has never dared to enter the Weather Wizard's mind, firstly for fear of being noticed by the other party, and secondly. Since the Weather Wizard now relies entirely on emotions to activate his superpowers, once his thinking is interfered with, it may cause various unknown consequences.
So he never thought about the possibility that the weather wizard might know what Elsa was doing.
This is bad.
But then he heard even more explosive words.
"Actually, you don't know something. Ever since I was a child, I have always wanted to be a girl."
?
"Wearing a small skirt, black stockings, makeup, pretending to be a bunny girl and going to nightclubs to catch sex, this is my favorite thing, Ma Dong."
"Huh?" Gorilla Grodd opened his mouth wide, his expression exactly the same as that of the Flash not far away.
"What did you say?"
The weather wizard below took off his clothes, leaving his upper body bare:
"Yes, yes, I am a pervert! Not only do I like to wear black stockings, I also like to strip naked and kiss the dog's ass! But Claudio always stops me and doesn't allow me to do it. I have been unhappy with him for a long time. You If you kill him, you will be my great benefactor!”
Gorilla Grodd, whose attention was completely attracted below, did not notice at all. In the not far corner, through a smooth tile, the weather wizard squatting with Chen Tao in the mirror space was going crazy.
"My reputation is completely ruined!" He stretched out his hand blankly and grabbed Chen Tao's collar. He had forgotten his fear: "I am completely famous in Central City!"
He hugged his head: "Sam!!! You never said Batman would let Clayface ruin my reputation like this!!! I shouldn't have finished releasing the fog midway and followed you to hide and run away quietly - I will fight with you !!!!”
He turned around and pinched the mirror master's neck, feeling that his depression was half gone.
Chen Tao ignored the weather wizard. He synchronized the rapid bullets, his eyes glowed white, and he was observing the basic structure of the lightning rod around Grodd with his clairvoyant eyes.
"Wow, this has nothing to do with me!!! I'm only responsible for leading you to help the fake pretend to be real and then come up invisible through the mirror space. Who knew that Batman's subordinate Clayface could do such a thing?! "
Thunder began to flash in the weather wizard's eyes.
The golden glider nervously took out the electric shock device: "Ma Dong, please be sensible!"
"Reason, what reason do you want me to use!? I just -" But despite saying this, the weather wizard finally calmed down.
"Wait!" But he paused, and then suddenly reacted: "Are there many people and news media down here now?"
The golden glider and the mirror master looked at each other.
Then in the next second, the man and woman took action in unison. Two sticks came out and banged twice, knocking the weather wizard unconscious to the ground, and then skillfully poured a basin of water on his face.
"Are you calm? Do you accept it?"
The weather wizard looked like his whole family had died.
Chen Tao turned to look at him.
Letting Clayface act weird and distract Grodd didn't buy enough time for him to figure out the lightning rod in front of him.
Even with the help of Professor Darwin and the previously analyzed blood of Flash Barry Allen, it would be difficult for him to simply and crudely apply it to the high-tech equipment belonging to the Ape City in front of him.
He needs someone to buy him more time.
So he looked at the weather wizard with his eyes.
The weather wizard looked at him too.
"Even if I die——"
"Just hold him for a while." Chen Tao said, "Just for a while."
The weather wizard sighed. He turned to look at the golden glider: "How could the Rogue Gang cooperate with such a person?"
The golden glider knew that he was in the wrong, so he turned his head and did not dare to speak.
So the weather wizard sighed again. As a member of the Rogue Gang, you should obey the gang's task arrangements. Just like Captain Cold always arranged for the magician to go on a lookout in the past, no matter how boring or outrageous the task is, the members of the Rogue Gang must abide by their tasks. , this is the meaning of team.
And now the acting leader of the Rogue Gang is the Golden Glider. If the leader makes a decision, he must obey it.
And now the Golden Glider tells him to listen to Batman.
So the weather wizard pinched his nose and walked out of the mirror space with a stinky face. He walked behind Grodd with a deliberately loud voice and said coquettishly: "I am... the weather wizard."
He took two deep breaths, and then used great perseverance to control himself and say the lines:
"I've loved being a girl since I was little..."
As soon as the bearded man said this, he had the urge to hide his face and run away.
After Chen Tao heard this, the movements of his hands suddenly stopped.
Maybe he didn't make it clear... His original intention was to let the weather wizard go out to attack Grodd, so as to buy him time to study Grodd's machine for a while, and even the other party rolled up a storm to cover him and let him use nano The robot tampered with Grodd's machine——
Instead of letting him go out and reproduce Clayface's deliberately funny content! ! !
But looking at Gorilla Grodd's stunned expression as he turned his head, the goal of delaying time was also achieved. In fact, it was not a big problem——
Beyond the Weather Wizard's personal reputation.
"This is the weather wizard's personal behavior and has nothing to do with me. It has nothing to do with me..."
The other party seemed to have made a lot of determination. If he told the weather wizard that he was wrong at this time, the other party might really lose control of his super power. Chen Tao decided to swallow the original plan and continue to put most of his energy into it. Go into perspective on the lightning rod machine.
Gorilla Grodd, on the other hand, calmed down. He looked at the weather wizard who was posing in front of him: "You disgusting pervert! But don't think that I will try to read your thoughts."
He said: "Someone told you in advance that Elsa killed your brother... Was it Batman? He is truly a detective. Then I will not be stupid enough to try to control you or read your brain."
Chen Tao's heart moved when he heard Grodd say:
"A friend of mine told me the specific details of Batman's fight against Brainiac. He had a kind of mental pollution specifically for people with telepathic abilities, right? If I invaded your brain, I'd be right now. His agenda."
Chen Tao sighed. Grodd was quite cautious and knew that he needed to collect intelligence before the war.
His well-informed friend couldn't be Reverse Flash, could he? Chen Tao has not forgotten him. At this time, he is not on the battlefield like Sisko and Catherine.
Chen Tao had used clown thinking to deceive telepaths so many times before. This level of information had long been leaked. If Reverse Lightning wanted to collect it, there would be no way to hide it from him.
It's a pity. He has already done something in the Weather Wizard's mind. If Grodd dares to invade the Weather Wizard's brain, he will be able to remotely link to his brain immediately, and then he will immediately synchronize with the Joker, and the battle will be over. .
"Follow you, Golden Glider, Mirror Master." Chen Tao said, "Delay Grodd as long as possible. The Flash is about to finish off Captain Cold and Heat Wave. If you join forces, you can delay as long as possible." Longer.”
As soon as he finished speaking, The Flash appeared on the rooftop of the scene.
He stood next to the Weather Wizard: "To be honest, since I got the Speed Force and met superhuman beings like Superman and Batman, I thought nothing in this world would surprise me."
His eyes paused on Grodd: "But I still never thought that one day I would have to fight a talking orangutan!"
Then the next moment, he felt a beast roaring in his mind. The pain was so painful that he almost fell to his knees, but in an instant, his thinking and brain accelerated so fast that this mental shock brought about The pain disappeared in just half a second. So to outsiders, he only stumbled slightly.
Although Chen Tao was analyzing the lightning rod, he had been observing the battlefield with part of his mind. This is Grodd's mental shock. Grodd now dares not enter other people's "homes" at will, but he can still easily do things like throwing stones at other people's homes.
Chen Tao dispersed a small group of nanorobots and began to quietly move against Grodd's lightning rod.
Reverse Flash still hasn't appeared.
The weather wizard's hand rolled up a small blizzard, and the Speed Force began to twine in Grodd's eyes. The Flash turned into a bolt of lightning and rushed towards him, and then was struck by the ape's spirit in mid-air. There was a muffled groan from the impact, and blood overflowed from his mouth and nose.
A battle seemed about to break out, but the next second...
"Gruder, stop talking nonsense to these people."
Chen Tao was certain.
Speaking of Cao Cao and Cao Cao, the most reassuring thing is the appearance of Reverse Lightning in the battle.
He saw the yellow figure appearing next to the lightning rod: "Start it quickly!"
He ignored Flash Barry's surprise and pressed twice on the lightning rod.
Buzz!
In an instant. Everything stopped.
Time slowed down like a snail... except for the Flash, Barry Allen.
Flash looked down and saw every pedestrian on the street standing there like insects in amber.
He saw the condensed storm stagnating in the weather wizard's palm. He still kept his mouth open, but his slightly open expression was as lifeless as a wax figure.
"Feel it? Flash?"
He heard Grodd's voice.
The Flash turned his head suddenly: "What did you do?"
"That's a lightning rod, a technology you don't know about The Flash. It can lead to a speed stance."
Grodd walked slowly, ignoring the weather wizard who was parked there, and walked towards the Flash.
"The Midtown that you cherish so much has now solidified, because all the Speed Force it contains has been drained. All living things in Midtown, including the love of your life, are trapped in this moment. And the one you regard as the greatest Batman with help - even in the mirror space, there is no way he can survive."
Gorilla Grodd turned to look at Reverse Flash: "Do you think I didn't guess that Batman was trying to spy on my equipment? But Batman is just an ordinary human without the speed force after all."
He said: "There is no way he is in the Speed Field..."
"Idiot," he heard Reverse-Flash say. "Smart, stupid ape."
Reverse Lightning grabbed the lightning rod and kept inputting the speed force onto it.
He had turned on the machine too early, and the device was supposed to draw some more of the Speed Force from Barry.
But now... it's enough.
Gorilla Grodd turned his head suddenly and saw the Flash appearing in front of Batman who crawled out of the mirror space like a snail.
As soon as he put his hand on Chen Tao's shoulder, Chen Tao was accelerated to Barry's speed at the same time.
"No time to say more, Barry." The Flash heard Batman say: "I have one question right now. Do you trust me?"
"Of course, Mr. Wayne." Barry's eyes slanted to the two dangerous enemies standing there. He nodded sharply with firm eyes: "We must work together to fight them. Tell me, Mr. Wayne, you What do you want me to do? No matter what you ask me to do, I will obey unconditionally."
He said: "Although you didn't tell me completely, you must be prepared for the situation at hand, right?"
"Yes."
Chen Tao nodded.
He whispered to Barry: "Quick, stand in front of me!"
As soon as he put his two feet together, they turned into wheels.
Barry watched intently as Chen Tao's feet turned into two wheels.
"Don't be stupid!"
"oh oh!"
Barry saw that Reverse Flash was already wrapped in red lightning and rushing towards him. He immediately stood in front of Batman without thinking, reaching out to try to block Reverse Flash's attack.
Then the next moment...
Barry only felt something hard pressing against his butt.
He looked sideways and saw Batman, Mr. Bruce Wayne...
It actually turned into a Batmobile.
flash:?
Then the next second, countless small mechanical cables stretched out from the front of the car, directly tying up the Flash.
The wheels turned, and with a swishing sound, the Flash, who was tied to the front of the car, and Chen Tao, who had turned into the Batmobile, started running before the reverse-flash attack arrived.
