“Cousin, are you all right?”
After one punch killed Lieutenant Sinclair, Luke reached out and pulled Kal-El up.
Skinny Superman had been beaten wildly and was a little delirious. Looking at his older cousin, there was an extra hint of warmth in his teary-eyed look.
When the Flash asked him to go out, it was clear that he was talking about a big meal.
When they arrived at the door, Barry found out that something was wrong and left Superman behind, using the Speed Force to break into the house.
Then Sinestro came to catch the Flash; he only targeted him.
The other party’s goal was the Flash. He wasn’t interested in Superman.
But the simple-minded Kal-El, when he saw that Barry was captured, thought that dinner might not be an option.
Sinestro didn’t want to get involved too much. The person who sent Lieutenant Sinclair, General Lane, believed him when he said that the Green Lantern Corps could stop the Kryptonians.
Having met Abin Sur, the federal government wasn’t difficult to persuade.
That’s what Luke saw when he came.
“Find somewhere to buy a hotdog or a burger. Go eat.”
Luke looked at Superman’s injury. Although he looked miserable, for the self-healing Kryptonian, it was nothing.
He was too busy looking for Sinestro and Reverse-Flash and had no time to take care of his younger cousin.
Barry Allen was the only key to the main universe, so he couldn’t let anything happen to him.
“No money…”
Superman didn’t move his feet and spoke with some embarrassment.
Barry had taught him the common sense of having to pay for food.
“Take it. Swipe as much as you like.”
Luke had never had the habit of carrying money, and when he was in the Marvel Universe, he travelled with a secretary and bodyguard, so he didn’t have to pay his own bills at all.
In the studio next door, the Flash, Batman or Cyborg took care of the bills.
Fortunately, Barry left a credit card. He threw it to his cousin, indicating that he was free to use it.
Anyway, the Flashpoint world was a mistake that was going to be corrected. Even if the Flash’s credit card was maxed out, it wouldn’t matter.
“Thank you, Cousin.”
Superman was very polite and walked away with the credit card.
“What an easy child to take care of. Power Ring, search for Thaal Sinestro’s location.”
Luke sent away his cousin, who was beaten up for no reason, then used the Power Ring to find Sinestro’s whereabouts.
The Guardians of the Universe added a ‘beacon’ function to the rings when they were forged for the convenience of the Green Lantern Corps’ operations.
It could search for nearby Green Lantern soldiers at any time, anywhere, and guide each other to rally together.
It could also send emergency signals in case of danger.
According to Abin Sur, at this time, Sinestro didn’t have the yellow light of fear.
Then, Luke, who was also an owner of the Green Power Ring, could easily find the other party’s whereabouts.
‘He’s fast. At the Atlantic Ocean. ‘
Luke withdrew the projection made from the Power Ring, pulled himself up from the ground and rushed high into the air.
In a matter of minutes, he crossed the long-distance and appeared over the Atlantic Ocean.
“Sinestro is after the Flash’s Speed Force, and Reverse-Flash is after revenge against the Flash … Barry, You’re so unlucky!”
Luke muttered casually. His eyes swept across the vast sea like radar and finally locked on a small island.
…
…
“Hehehe. Barry, we meet again.”
When the Flash opened his eyes, he saw the Reverse-Flash’s face.
The other person, like a weirdo with nefarious intentions, kept laughing dangerously.
“Thawne, it’s you! Don’t hurt my mother… anymore!”
Seeing the enemy who killed his mother, the Flash’s emotions were instantly aroused.
He was strapped to a metal chair with his hands and feet in shackles.
The Speed Force in his body also seemed to get weak and difficult to mobilise.
Barry remembered that he was going to have dinner with his mother.
However, Sinestro set a trap. The Flash actively rushed into an energy net, completing the capture plan.
“Don’t worry, Barry, I didn’t do anything to your mother. Although I killed her countless times on countless timelines, I’m not going to do it this time.”
Reverse-Flash spoke in a sinister tone, unafraid of the anger emanating from the Flash’s eyes.
“I love what you’ve done with the place. It’s collapsed and distorted. Everyone’s fate has changed. It’s wonderful.”
The Flash clenched his fist, wanting to punch the other party severely. He angrily shouted, “You planned all this!”
“No, Barry, that’s the fun part.”
Reverse-Flash had waited for so long to hear the Flash say that.
He was so excited that he was almost ecstatic.
He came to this world with him. Wasn’t it just to enjoy this moment?
Reverse-Flash squeezed his opponent’s jaw, then laughed and said, “I didn’t do anything. The reason for this world lies in you, Barry Allen, the superhero of the Justice League, the Flash!”
“Think carefully, Barry. Did you do anything ‘good’ in secret?”
The Flash pursed his lips, knowing that he had created the Flashpoint world in order to undo his mother’s death.
However, it couldn’t have had such a great impact.
Superman, Batman, Aquaman, Wonder Woman … the fate of these people had changed.
“This is a lie you’ve made up, isn’t it? I saved my Mother. How could I have influenced her past before she was killed and further distorted time and space? That’s impossible!”
Barry shook his head vigorously, saying he didn’t believe it.
“Wow, you don’t want to accept the truth? Then let me ask you, Barry. If speed breaks through the sound barrier, it creates sonic booms. What about breaking through the time barrier?”
Reverse-Flash understood everything that was going on and did his best to answer the Flash’s innermost questions.
He loved watching the Flash wallow in pain and self-doubt.
‘It’s so delightful!’
“Speed Force broke the boundary of time, and then boom! A huge explosion was created, and the distortion effect started to spread outward with you as the centre of the circle, affecting everything!”
The Reverse-Flash held out his finger and gestured.
“Of course, I helped in a small way — but you gave me the opportunity, Barry.”
The Flash clenched his teeth. His expression was a little complicated.
Thinking of Superman and the dead Bruce, his heart was filled with guilt.
This was the expression that the Reverse-Flash wanted to see!
“I just … wanted to save my Mother.”
After a long moment of silence, Barry painfully said so.
“What a touching story, Central City’s greatest superhero… Wait! Why weren’t you there to prevent JFK’s assassination? And why didn’t you keep Hitler at the Academy of Fine Arts?”
The Reverse-Flash was relentlessly sarcastic.
“You just wanted to save your mother! Because of your selfish desire, you tore the past apart and made a tragedy out of it.”
“Tell me, Flash, what’s the difference between you and me now?”
Crossing his arms on his chest, he looked at the Flash, who was struck speechless. The Reverse-Flash revealed his satisfaction.
He clapped his hands. The originally dim environment suddenly lit up.
Barry saw the Cosmic Treadmill with all kinds of wires and instruments connected to it.
“He’s all yours, Sinestro.”
The Reverse-Flash retreated to the side, leaving room for his partner.
The red-skinned alien came out of the dark shadows and looked directly at the Flash, who was hanging his head in disbelief and devoid of hope.
A frenzy flashed in his eyes, and he muttered, “The Speed Force … is mine!”
