Chapter 596: This Is My Grace to You!
2022-10-19 Author: Great Demon Spirit
Dark Superman would swear, since he could remember, he had never been so humiliated.
Again and again, he was thrown back to Apokolips by Tony using a Mother Box. Then he would use the Mother Box on Apokolips to reopen a Boom Tube, only to be thrown back again…
No matter which corner of the Universe he appeared in, a nightmarish white light would always arrive instantly, and with a *whoosh*, throw him back.
Frequently performing ultra-long-distance teleportations in a short period, even Dark Superman's constitution couldn't quite endure it anymore.
Crossing a Boom Tube was equivalent to traversing the boundless and vast Sphere of the Gods, then also crossing the fierce and menacing Speed Force Wall, and finally, precisely locating a specific, detailed Coordinate in the Multiverse.
For the powerful, this process wasn't difficult, but for the weaker ones, each journey was incredibly painful and full of struggle. What's more, Dark Superman had attempted it so many times that the experience was nothing short of agonizing torture.
If the journey from the Sphere of the Gods to the Multiverse was easy, then the many unique gods wouldn't be tightly blocked outside the Speed Force Wall; their true forms would have long since rushed into the Multiverse and wreaked havoc.
Finally, Dark Superman was unusually enraged. This time, he directly carried the last remaining Mother Box from Apokolips and descended upon the Nirvana Universe, roaring furiously, his anger blazing.
The Boom Tube slowly closed, the immense Mother Box was easily held in Dark Superman's giant hand, a massive power continuously flowed, maintaining Dark Superman's own stability.
"Come on, let's see how you'll throw me back this time! Do you think I'm that robot? You will die!!" Flames shot from Dark Superman's mouth, and the red runes on his war helmet began to twist.
In front of many Gods, Dark Superman had completely lost face.
He was here to achieve Deification! He was here to enjoy endless glory! He was here to enjoy worship! But damn it, he had been repeatedly thwarted by Tony.
If Tony's own strength was powerful, then so be it. Dark Superman wasn't a sore loser, but every time he remembered being defeated by his own Mother Box, he almost spat blood in rage.
Steppenwolf's original sneer abruptly stopped. Seeing the Mother Box in Dark Superman's hand, his face drastically changed. He gripped his axe tightly and stood up abruptly, his eyes turning red. "You idiot—"
It was at this moment that Tony's figure suddenly vanished. In less than a ten-thousandth of a second, Tony, who had been sitting on the chair, instantly appeared before Dark Superman, his expression profound.
Dark Superman threw a heavy punch, unleashing the full power of his black armor. With a thunderous boom, the Universe Barrier desperately created by Mobius's Chair was instantly shattered, and the massive iron fist smashed directly towards Tony's face.
"Ha—"
The sinister grin behind Dark Superman's war helmet hadn't even had a chance to fully form when Tony's lips already parted, flashing a brilliant smile at him.
"Thank you."
His left hand suddenly opened wide, black light erupted, time seemed to suddenly slow. Dark Superman's fist accurately struck Tony's head, and then, a deafening clang echoed.
With a *clang*, like the sound of colliding steel.
Tony stood motionless; the spot where he was hit showed not the slightest damage.
"I didn't expect you'd actually deliver the Mother Box to me. How could Darkseid have such a foolish son like you? Didn't you ever wonder why I could perfectly control the Mother Box?"
Tony displayed a bone-chilling smile, then snatched at the Mother Box in Dark Superman's other hand.
Steppenwolf's eyes grew bloodshot, and he charged over in a frenzy of Rage. Many Gods also stirred restlessly, looking at the four assembled Mother Boxes, revealing greedy gazes.
But Tony's speed was faster. Dark Superman was dumbfounded, watching helplessly as Tony took the last Mother Box from his hand.
It was as if he should let Tony take it; not letting him take it was wrong behavior, not letting him take it was unfilial...
Wait, something seemed off.
Dark Superman was a bit stunned.
The four Mother Boxes were pieced together, finally forming a whole. The Mother Box, Apokolips's strongest construct, was finally complete at this moment.
Who knew how many years later, the four Mother Boxes finally gathered together, and were controlled by a Being not from Apokolips.
Violent white lightning bolts, one after another, erupted from the enlarged, pieced-together Mother Box, instantly forming a massive storm. Terrifying bolts of white lightning, carrying a destructive aura, spread out towards countless Universes.
This was unknown energy from the Mother Box's Source, containing the essence of origin, with the characteristics of a materialized lightning storm, even a trace of which could destroy formidable enemies.
Everything became chaotic. In an instant, it was as if the constants and parameters of countless Universes became utterly chaotic, yet also as if everything was normal. Tony floated, perceiving everything; that endless energy and the unknown was more intoxicating than the world's most terrifying poison.
Space-Time began to tear. The fully formed Mother Box exerted immense pressure on the Multiverse's Space-Time, as if a heavy object had suddenly appeared, frantically pushing the entire Multiverse down, threatening to collapse it.
"Tony, if you dare to seize control of the Mother Box, then Apokolips will forever be your mortal enemy!!!" Steppenwolf howled mournfully, like a madman.
"Aren't we already mortal enemies now? You are hindering my Deification. If I fail, I'm dead for sure. If I succeed, I'll have a chance to live... Steppenwolf, tell me, why should I yield?"
"And this Mother Box was delivered automatically! I didn't violate our agreement!"
Tony revealed a cold smile.
The gigantic Mother Box, pieced together into a rectangle, wantonly radiated terrifying might. Its internal core authorities were being accessed and understood by Tony.
Coupled with the authorities of the three Mother Boxes Tony initially controlled, it granted Tony the ability to briefly wield the complete Mother Box.
"No, no!! How dare you!!! How are you worthy!!!"
Dark Superman finally came to his senses, frantically, hysterically wanting to kill Tony.
Only by killing Tony could he cover up his sin.
Tony reached out. From the Mother Box, a lightning-transformed energy wave instantly detached, piercing Dark Superman and leaving a deep crater in his armor, through which fragmented flesh and blood could faintly be seen.
Dark Superman furiously assessed his injuries, staring wide-eyed at the complete Mother Box radiating terrifying pressure. Then he quickly turned his head, frantically roaring at Steppenwolf: "Steppenwolf! What exactly are you plotting? How could you give control of the Mother Box to an outsider?! Does Father know about this!!!"
"I..." Steppenwolf's face was full of grievance and Rage. His eyes red, he looked at the Mother Box, wanting to fight Tony to the death, but recalling something, he hesitated to act.
This hesitation was equivalent to sending a dangerous signal to those restless gods.
Tony absorbed the Mother Box. The unique fluctuation emanating from his body was gradually stabilizing. He raised his head, his entire body exuded a cold aura, his body seemed to magnify into infinity, coldly looking down at everyone present.
"If you don't act now, you'll never have another chance in your lives."
Tony bared his pale teeth and said in a chilling voice: "If you don't act, then I will! Today, if I don't slaughter half of your Gods, it would be a disservice to the formation you've arrayed!"
"Rest assured, I am a very benevolent God. If I say I'll kill half of you, it means half, no less. You can consider this to be... the supreme Grace bestowed upon you by a tolerant me!!"
