Ch: 142 [Velocity 9]

"Alchemy, huh? One second you were begging for mercy, and the next you are trying to fight again," Bruce's voice was calm, "I'll show you the difference between a strong and a weak person."

He charged forward, leaving behind an afterimage, and with a single punch, his fist landed on Ra's abdomen and went through it. The next thing everyone heard was a loud, sickening crunch. Bruce's hand has exited through Ra's back. Blood and internal organs were splattering everywhere. Ra's body was sent flying backward as Bruce pulled out his guts.

It was pretty nasty and bloody.

"..." Everyone was shocked and speechless by the gruesome scene. Ra's body was lying motionlessly on the ground while Bruce was looking at it with a disgusted face. The courtyard fell silent, but it was broken by Ra's sudden laughter.

"HAHAHA... HAHAHAHAA... Finally... FINALLY! A worthy opponent... Worthy enough to fight me..." Ra's stood up like a zombie as the hole in his stomach began to close up, "Now, Bruce... Let us dance until one of us dies!"

Ra's rushed forward with his swords ready to strike. Bruce dodged the attacks while throwing punches left and right, yet none of his attacks landed. Ra's speed increased out of nowhere. He was dodging Bruce's attack with ease. Bruce spun around and kicked Ra's chest, sending him flying once again. Ra's guarded his chest with his arms. Right now, his arms were broken and dangling like a yo-yo, but weirdly enough, they started healing immediately.

Ra's stood up and he stretched his arms. He looked at his arms and clenched his fists a couple of times. Then he picked up his two sword swords from the ground, "Now, my turn." He kicked the ground and flew toward Bruce like a rocket. His swords moved like snakes, striking every opening in Bruce's defense.

"Hmph," Bruce smirked as he blocked Ra's sword with his bare hands. The swords were coated with poison, but Bruce's skin was covered with nanites. The sizzling sound of the swords melting away reached Ra's ears. He jumped backward to distance himself away from Bruce, but Bruce dashed forward like a cheetah and grabbed him by the head. Ra's tried to stab Bruce with his swords, but Bruce twisted his arm and snapped it like a twig. Ra's cried in pain but Bruce ignored him. He simply crushed Ra's skull and smashed his head into the ground multiple times. "Tsk." He clicked his tongue in annoyance and jumped back a few meters. "Fuck! I hate magic."

Ra's regenerated once again. "Hahaha... Bruce... My boy... I see great potential within you. It would be such a waste to kill you. Become my apprentice and stand by my side as I create a better world for mankind!"

Bruce looked at his hands. The poison has melted the nanites. He scanned the chemical, but it wasn't anything known to science. It was a pure alchemic concoction. The materials used to brew such a potion were unheard of. He ran it through the database, but such things don't exist on Earth, at least not yet. Bruce's eyes widened as Jarvis completed the analysis. The most important ingredient used to brew this potion was a certain someone's blood.

'Pamela's blood!' Bruce was shocked by this new discovery. 'How the fuck did he get his hands on her blood?!' He quickly connected to the nanites in Pamela's wristband. She was alright and unharmed, doing her research. He quickly eliminated the fact that Ra's came in contact with her. Then, there's only one explanation.

Reverse Flash!

'Did he hurt Pam in the future?!'

Bruce roared in rage as he rushed toward Ra's once again. His body was engulfed in lightning, and Ra's found himself unable to breathe as heavy pressure landed on him.

'Such power! Such anger!' Ra's was impressed. He tightly grabbed his swords and charged toward Bruce. Their blades clashed, causing shockwaves to blow past them. Bruce manipulated the nanites to form two swords in his hands and used them to counter Ra's blades. Ra's kicked Bruce in the abdomen and jumped backward.

"Where is that yellow spandex fucker?" Bruce yelled as he pressed his abdomen. The kick from Ra's contained tremendous strength, enough to break Bruce's nanite armor, and it was starting to piss him off. "Where is Reverse Flash?! And what else did he give you other than the poison made from my girl's blood? No need to answer now, but you should remember these two questions of mine, because starting now, I'm gonna smash your head with every punch I throw!" Bruce rushed toward Ra's like a beast hunting for its prey.

The assassins watched this scene with fear and awe. This fight was beyond their understanding. It was as if gods were battling each other.

"Hahaha... Now this is getting interesting!" Ra's laughed maniacally. "He was right. You may not have a physical weakness, but your emotions... Your emotions are your greatest weakness!"

"Shut the fuck up!" Bruce roared as he punched Ra's in the face, sending him flying.

Ra's head exploded like a watermelon, only to regenerate as if nothing happened. "Hahaha... You have to do better than that."

Bruce didn't speak anymore and he kept on smashing Ra's head over and over again with single punches, just as he promised. Ra's regeneration became slower with each punch thrown at him. The assassins watched this scene with fear. Never in their wildest dreams would they imagine that the Demon Head, who was considered to be a god among men, would lose so miserably after the sudden power burst.

However, Ra's wasn't the only one who suffered.

The nanites from Bruce's arms were dripping like liquid mercury. Bruce's nanite armor has been depleted by half due to Ra's poison. Bruce stopped attacking Ra's and jumped backward while creating more nanites to repair the damaged ones. He was forced to stop using the nanites. Ra's took advantage of this opportunity and attacked Bruce, only to be countered by Bruce's lightning-fast reflexes.

'Damn it! It isn't going like that guy mentioned,' Ra's thought. Despite the poison shredding Bruce's armor, he was yet to land a fatal blow. 'If things continue like this, I'll run out of time. I've already absorbed too much power of the Pit. My regeneration increased to the maximum level, but it can't keep up with the damage that brat is dealing. If things continue like this...' Ra's gritted his teeth. 'I didn't want to use this, but..."

He took out a small vial of blue liquid with sparks of lightning.

"Let's end this," Ra's drank the vial, causing his whole body to glow. His aura changed completely. He felt like he was a newborn once again.

Bruce quickly scanned the liquid, "Velocity 9!"

Velocity is a series of drugs that allows temporary access to the Speed Force. Initially developed by Hunter Zolomon, and then by Dr. Harry Wells as Velocity 6, a more recent version of the drug (Velocity 9) was created by Dr. Caitlin Snow. Despite its benefits, this drug is also very dangerous, as it causes cellular degeneration and eventually death. In addition, subjects of the serum have demonstrated mental instability or disorders.

Sparks of blue lightning appeared around Ra's body as the power of Speed Force coursed through his veins. He could feel the lightning coursing through his veins and every single cell. It was too much power and he could feel his cells burning up, but his regeneration ability was keeping his body intact. Ra's grinned as he dashed forward. Bruce tried to defend himself, but Ra's speed was way too fast even for him. Ra's stabbed his chest multiple times, but his swords shattered like wafers.

'The hell?! No a single scratch? He isn't using his tech, then how?' Ra's frowned in annoyance. "Enough of this bullshit." He threw his sword and tried to stab Bruce's heart, just like Reverse Flash had taught him, but as soon as his hand tried to faze through Bruce's chest, but...

[Crackle!] A bolt of raw lightning was sent coursing through his body.

"ARGhhhghhgg!!" Ra's screamed in agony as he was forced to run back. All this time, he didn't feel a single ounce of pain, even when his head was getting squashed, but this pain he was feeling right now was definitely real. Ra's grimaced in pain and his veins popped. "Don't fuck with me!" His regeneration hasn't kicked in. He looked at his palm and touched his own cheek. "W-What the hell is this?!" A chunk of his cheek skin was missing.

Bruce just looked at Ra's with dead cold eyes as if he was facing a pathetic cockroach. "Velocity 9 should provide a plethora of powers and speed," he pointed at Ra's, "But that power causes cellular corrosion and mental instability. Given the concentrated dose you just took... If my calculation is correct, which usually is... Your body will disintegrate within twenty minutes. You will die without me doing anything."

"You are lying!" Ra's used his super speed and began to run around Bruce, creating a vacuum space. 'No human can survive such an attack. I will squeeze every single drop of air around him and bombard him with raw energy.' Ra's grinned maliciously as he thought of this.

Soon, his figure was nothing but an arc, that was circling Bruce at a constant and fast rate. While the outside observers would never see more than a slight blur. The blue light from Ra's body was getting brighter and brighter with each passing second. Soon, he created a vacuum around Bruce.

'Now, feel my wrath, you puny little bug!' Ra's began to throw arcs of lighting at Bruce from all directions.

Bruce just stood there and took it head-on without even trying to defend himself. Ra's kept on bombarding him for ten minutes or so before he lost his footing and stumbled on the ground. His body crashed against a wall of the mansion. He struggled to get up and fell once again, coughing and gasping for breath. Blood leaked from his mouth, and his skin peeled away like rags of cloth. His eyes were on Bruce.

Bruce's clothes were torn apart and he was standing almost naked in the arena. But, surprisingly there wasn't even a single scratch on his body.

"WHAT IN THE SEVEN HELLS ARE YOU?" Ra's voice was full of panic as his body started crumbling away.

"Didn't he tell you?" Bruce clenched his fist. Thanks to Ra's lightning attack, Skylar was able to get back 70% of her energy. The lightning ring in Bruce's finger began to glow with a faint blue hue, "Thawne... Didn't he tell you what kind of person I am? Or do you still want to deny his involvement?" Bruce stretched his hands and shot a raw lightning bolt, targeting Ra's arms.

[Crackle!] The bolt landed perfectly on Ra's arms, burning his flesh. He screamed in agony as his flesh was getting shredded.

Bruce clicked his fingers and stopped the flow of electricity. "Now, do you still remember those two questions? Answer them truthfully and I'll kill you painlessly... Or, choose to die while suffering in agony. Or, you can choose to use something else that yellow fuck face might have given you and continue this futile struggle. The choice is yours..."
