Chapter 101 53 Unfortunately, I Didn’t Come Here to Become Someone’s Shadow [3650]

Chapter 101 53. Unfortunately, I didn't come here to become someone's shadow--【3650】

Jason Todd was highly regarded by Batman when he was Robin.

Compared with Grayson, the second barrel guy has a bad temper and is very impulsive, but his fighting talent is much stronger than that of the eldest son. He completed all of Batman's training in less than half the time of Grayson.

When he was Robin, he was also a guy that could make all the villains in Gotham tremble with fear.

Batman and the eldest son restrained the use of violence.

Even when facing extremely vicious criminals, they would at most send them to the intensive care unit for "slight punishment", but if they were unlucky enough to meet the second barrel on night patrol, the criminals would most likely go to the ICU.

Broken ribs are just an appetizer, and occasionally a femoral head comminuted fracture or a few leg bones would be removed to prevent them from doing evil again.

This is normal operation.

In general, Ertong was a complete "violent person" before he encountered the ups and downs of life. Compared with stopping crimes, he was more interested in getting "free sandbags".

Because of this bad habit, he was often scolded by Batman.

After being tricked by the Joker and then being replaced in the coffin by the Assassin's League, he was resurrected by the Lazarus Pool. After a long period of training in the assassin's organization, his violent habits were further improved to the point of "cold and cruel".

The Lazarus Pool can bring people back to life.

But this resurrection comes at a price.

Just look at how vicious and bloodthirsty the twelve-year-old Damian is, and you will know that this thing is definitely not a god-given medicine.

In short, in this evening that gradually turned into a torrential rain, in the dark alley where Batman lost his parents, in the "fateful place" where Jason Todd first met Batman and tried to remove the tires of the Batmobile.

This confused and painful soul started a deadly fight with another guy he hated.

He planned to use the assassination skills he learned in the Assassin's League and his superb shooting skills to form a "gunfighting technique" to paralyze Mason, the annoying guy, so that he could get rid of his breath.

Then Mason slapped a golden lightning in the face.

The umbrella, which looked no different from an ordinary umbrella, burst out a dazzling electric current when it was swung, and hit Jason along with the rain, paralyzing the cold-blooded killer on the spot. At the same time, two bat darts with "stuff" flew out from the left and right and stuck at Jason's feet.

The red light spot flashed and detonated the engineering explosives, and the two barrels were blown away in the rain with a rumble and fell awkwardly on the dirty ground.

"That's it?"

Mason grabbed the umbrella and said disdainfully:

"Did you shoot your brain when you went to bed with Talia? You forgot everything Bruce taught you, right? Or do you think I look easier to bully than the eldest and third young masters?"

"Bang"

Mason was answered by a large-caliber bullet.

The open penguin umbrella blocked the bullets, but Jason had obviously modified the ammunition so that it had the ability to explode in addition to the impact.

The impact made Mason take a step back, but the umbrella made of double bulletproof material was obviously tougher than before.

So this explosive bullet failed to break the defense.

But Jason's body, which was strengthened by the Lazarus Pool, quickly got rid of the paralysis. He no longer underestimated the enemy and took the opportunity of Mason's open umbrella to block his vision and rushed up quickly. He fired four bullets in a row and forced Mason into a corner and prepared to execute him.

But what he didn't know was.

Mason, who had turned on the combat assistance, didn't need his eyes to catch the opponent's traces. Even if he was blindfolded, he could perfectly grasp the opponent's movements.

So when Ertong jumped up against the wall and prepared to use a bullet to open an eye in Mason's head, the young man raised the tip of the umbrella and turned the umbrella handle in his hand.

"Puff"

The green fear gas came towards Ertong and sprayed him in the rain. The action was very much like Ertong actively rushing towards Mason's attack.

This is probably the legendary "random arrow method".

It's not that Mason shoots accurately.

It's mainly because Ertong took the shot well!

This guy had lost the "Scarlet Knight" suit designed for him by the Assassin's League in the previous battle. Without the protection of the high-tech helmet, he inhaled a breath of fear poison gas.

His mind was immediately attacked.

The dark alley in front of him suddenly twisted in front of him, and Mason holding an umbrella in his eyes became more and more overlapped with the figure who had killed him.

He could even hear the weird and crazy laughter while firing while staggering backwards.

But Ertong's performance was really good.

Perhaps because he had experienced the torture of death and learned the secret method of protecting his mind in the Assassin's League, he was not knocked down by fear.

Although it was difficult to fight as agilely as before, it was still no problem to protect himself when retreating.

However, this kind of fighting method of keeping a distance is extremely advantageous for Mason, who is a shooter. He threw a golden high-voltage current to hit Ertong, and then pulled out the revolver-type critical hand cannon on his waist and took a deep breath.

Eye of Death, start!

The dark alley under the rainstorm and the figure of Ertong shooting bullets in front of him suddenly stopped. Mason raised his gun and fired five shots at Ertong.

The next moment, his senses recovered, and five bullets whizzed away Ertong's two guns and opened three holes in his right arm, left leg and abdomen.

In order not to kill him, Mason also thoughtfully replaced the bullet with a smaller caliber.

The severe pain caused Jason to fall to the ground as he retreated. He lay in the rain and struggled, seemingly overcome by the poisonous fear, and even let out a shrill scream.

But Mason wasn't fooled at all.

While holding up his umbrella as a shield, he reloaded his gun and aimed it at Ertun's head, saying:

"What are you pretending to be? If the Scarlet Knight is knocked down so easily, you are not qualified to be the secret weapon used by the Assassin League to deal with Bruce.

A person who can defeat Batman head-on will not be eliminated with a few bullets.

tell me! Jason.

Are you taking advantage of Barbara?

Or do you mean that you don't want to involve her in your mess? "

"What's the difference?"

Seeing that Mason was not fooled, Jason also gave up the show of weakness tactic.

He knelt on one knee and did not pick up the gun on the ground. Instead, he held his hands behind his back. As his wrist moved, two black assassin's blades, one long and one short, were pulled out.

It is very similar to a Japanese sword, but the shape is slightly different.

The two gadgets made a strange buzzing sound when they were taken out, and emitted an ominous red glow in the rain.

"Is it the Great Caste Blade that Lei Xiaogu rewarded you with?"

Mason raised his eyebrows and said:

"You used this thing to defeat Bruce and poison him, right? It's a nice trophy, but tell me, Jason! Barbara almost chose to commit suicide because of your intervention.

She is your sister!

You bastard!

You almost killed her. "

"I sent for her but she refused to come to me!"

Jason, whose hair was soaked by the rain, shouted:

"She just wanted to express her dissatisfaction with Bruce. She has been tortured for too long! You blind people can only see her forcing a smile!

Only I can understand the pain in Barbara's heart.

I never wanted to hurt her.

I even got her water from the Lazarus Pool to help her stand up again, but she refused. Even when she made up her mind to leave this world, she still didn't want to hurt her friends and family.

But Bruce failed her!

It’s like he failed me.”

"Very good. Apart from your rebellious boy-like speech, I'm quite satisfied with this answer."

Mason nodded and said to the communicator plugged into his ear:

"Charles, the bombing is cancelled."

"Buzz"

More than twenty flying bombs flew up from the garbage piles on both sides behind Jason, and were retrieved by the kite man wearing an invisibility cloak high in the sky. This scene gave Jason a chill in his heart.

Mason didn't appear to be joking when he said he might be shoveled out

"You're betrayed, poor man."

Mason lowered his sidearm.

He said to Er Tong, whose wounds had healed in front of him:

"Thalia sold you to me, you idiot! Didn't Batman teach you not to fight on the battlefield of your enemy's choosing? Or didn't the Joker teach you that with a bloody crowbar?

He actually fell down twice in the same pit. It seems that the water in the Lazarus Pool is really harmful to intelligence.

Or maybe you gave up on her all the time and let that crazy woman be completely disappointed in you? "

"You said this is the battlefield you chose?"

Jason faced the sarcasm with an indescribable smile.

As soon as he stood up, he activated the button hidden in his boots. With a low explosion, the walls on both sides of the crime alley collapsed with a rumble.

In Mason's gaze, this short dark alley quickly turned into a closed space with no way to the sky or the ground, and the two barrels in front of him waved their wrists in the rain.

The buzzing blade of the great caste cut through the rain and made a light sound.

Er Tong lowered his head and said in a deep voice with a glance as if he had spoken his last words:

"Sorry, Mason Cooper, but I'm not trying to get out of here alive today, and maybe you, the one chosen as my replacement, can go to hell with me.

This way we can have company on the road. "

"Replacement?"

Mason looked at Jason walking towards him with a pair of knives in his hand with a strange expression. He fired three shots in a row, and the flying bullets were easily split by the Scarlet Knight with his double knives.

The bullets were useless and the young man retreated holding an umbrella in his hand.

In the increasingly fierce torrential downpour, he said:

"It turns out that you, like those idiots, think that I was treated as your shadow to enter Batman's field of vision. You also think, like them, that I approach Batman in order to become a member of the Bat-family.

When will you guys truly understand that the best way to pay tribute to an idol is never to be him? Admiration is the emotion farthest from understanding.

Do you really think that my ultimate purpose in coming to this world is just to become your shadow?

Stop looking down on people.

OK? "

Jason didn't answer.

He was just ready for a double-edged thrust. He knew that Mason must have other cards that he hadn't revealed yet, but he didn't care.

As he said, when he walked into this alley, he had no intention of leaving alive.

As for the reason

"I saw your tattoo before, Mason. You covered it up well with magic, but that vicious pool gave me the ability to see through it."

Ertong said in a dumb voice:

"You are with them! I'm sorry, but I can't allow you foreign bastards to continue to live! This may be the last thing I, a person who shouldn't be alive, can do to this world."

"Shh!"

Mason raised his finger in the rain and made a gesture to silence.

Under Ertong's surprised gaze, Mason threw away his umbrella and pistol, and took out a delicate syringe-like thing from his bag.

He sighed and shook his head, and stabbed the thing into his arm. The cold blood flowed into the blood vessels and brought great pain.

His cheeks twitched and he said hoarsely:

"You just said something that can't be said, you bad boy. I'm sorry, but Jason, it seems that we can't settle this matter today."

As the strange thing was injected into Mason's arm, a beast-like breath suddenly burst out from Mason.

The breath echoing in the rainstorm made Ertong's expression change drastically.

He no longer hesitated and stepped forward quickly.

Two blades of the Great Caste, one long and one short, staggered into Mason's chest. One of them pierced through the heart and pushed Mason back three steps, nailing him to the fallen rocks behind.

However, this fatal attack did not make Jason feel a bit safe in this torrential rain.

Therefore, Mason, who was pierced through the heart, not only did not die, but moved his neck and raised his head, and a painful smile appeared in his wild eyes.

Blood flowed from the corners of his mouth, but he still smiled in the rain, looking at Jason Todd, whose expression changed drastically.

He said:

"Then, please allow me to introduce you to a new friend, Jason."

"Puff"

Amid the sound of flesh tearing, three pale bloody bone claws pierced out from Mason's fists on the left and right, and pierced into the abdomen and chest of Ertong at a distance that Jason could not dodge at all.

Amid Ertong's screams, and in the even louder raindrops dripping into Crime Alley to wash away all the blood, Mason said hoarsely:

"Call me 'Logan' for the next 30 minutes! Please bear with it, it will definitely hurt a little"

——

When Batman arrived at Crime Alley, all he saw was Mason lying on the ground with a miserable look.

The young man was like being swept by an invisible blade, with wounds of all sizes all over his body. He leaned against the blood-stained wall and bandaged himself with difficulty in the rain.

Seeing that Mason was still alive, the master suddenly breathed a sigh of relief.

He landed in front of Mason with a whoosh, squatted down and injected him with a dose of hemostatic pain injection, and then looked at the chaos around him, which was like a gust of wind passing through, or like a place where a terrifying beast had ravaged.

He said hoarsely:

"Jason did this?"

"Damn, that guy is like crazy."

Mason, with blood all over his face, said weakly:

"He attacked me on my way home from get off work, but he could have killed me. I suspect he was just using me to vent his anger and express his dissatisfaction with you and the Bat Family.

Bruce, you really should review the way you get along with your Robins."

"Sorry, Mason."

The old man sighed in the rain, helped Mason up and walked to Dr. Leslie's clinic. He whispered:

"Did Jason leave anything when he left?"

"He said he would never come back."

Mason coughed and said:

"He said his fate with Gotham was over. He also said that the death of the Joker made him lose his goal, and after beating me half to death, he asked me to convey his apologies to Barbara.

But he also promised that he would never go along with the Assassin's League again.

I think he might be looking for some way to heal himself. , after all, the pollution of the Lazarus Pool has a long-lasting impact on a person's mental state.

Speaking of this, how is Damian? Is he getting along well with you? "

"That's why I came to you, Mason."

The master who is fearless and never frowns no matter what hardship he faces also sighed in the rain. He whispered:

"Regarding Damian's problem, I may need your alchemy help. Are you interested in becoming the Wayne family's private alchemist? Although Alfred invited you, I still think it would be more formal for me to invite you again."

"I'll think about it."

Mason shrugged and said:

"Now, I need to rest. I hope Dr. Leslie can arrange a quieter ward for me."

At the same time, in the basement of Mason's cabin, in the empty area inside the opened magic suitcase, the kite man was looking at Jason Todd, who was sent to the treatment cabin to maintain his life, with numbness all over his body.

The second barrel was almost torn apart!

If it weren't for the healing water of the Lazarus Pool in his body, and Mason was immediately given a large amount of healing drugs when he regained his sanity from the blood rage of Wolverine, poor Second Barrel would have been shoveled out of Crime Alley.

Kite Man almost watched the whole process.

He felt a shudder when he thought of the boss who was as crazy as a beast just now.

"The boss's potion is so weird!"

Charles complained:

"When increasing strength, even the personality will change?"
