Future Flash
In the end, Kino didn't make a move, because Apokolips had already been cut in two by the closed Sound Burst Channel.
Kino casually wiped away the fallen planetary debris.
Then look at Earth.
Two bolts of lightning, one red and one blue, like nimble serpents of light, roamed wildly across the map of the earth.
They appeared in a city filled with skyscrapers, their neon lights flickering incessantly in the gusts of wind as they sped past.
A moment later, they reappeared beside the mysterious and ancient Egyptian pyramids, stirring up clouds of yellow sand.
The entire Earth has now become their frantic racetrack for a decisive battle, with each turn of the clock causing howling winds.
Barry glanced at the figure chasing him out of the corner of his eye—the blue the Flash. No matter how fast he increased his speed, he still couldn't shake off his pursuers.
The Blue Flash kept questioning...
"Why did you come here? Why did you change everything you worked so hard to achieve? Isn't the world I created the one you've always dreamed of?"
"But such a world shouldn't come at the cost of the lives of people in another world. Besides, what you've created won't last long. Brother Kino said that what you're doing will only lead to the complete destruction of both worlds."
Barry retorted.
Don't mention him to me!
Upon hearing Kino's name, the Blue Flash was instantly enraged, like a powder keg ignited.
The Blue Lightning around him erupted like a volcano. He grabbed the lightning from his body and flung it toward Barry, filling the air with the pungent smell of ozone.
Phase shift.
Barry's body trembled as he passed through the houses beside him.
The house wall blocked the Blue Lightning, but it was blasted open, leaving a large hole. The flying dust was instantly swept away by the gust of wind generated by the two people running at high speed.
The Blue Flash blurred as he passed through the hole and rubble, closely following Barry, constantly lashing out with lightning bolts from his hands.
"If it weren't for him, why wouldn't you dare to change time? If it weren't for him, why would your speed be getting slower and slower? If it weren't for him, why would I suffer one tragedy after another!"
His voice was filled with deep-seated hatred.
Barry could only use houses, cars, and trees to block his attacks.
"What does this have to do with Brother Kino? He's not a hero."
Barry was filled with doubt. In his mind, Kino, though mysterious, had never been malicious, but this crazy Blue Flash in front of him was full of hatred for Kino.
"I told you not to mention him!"
The Blue Flash suddenly unleashed his power, instantly increasing his speed to a terrifying level.
He was like a blue shooting star, instantly overtaking Barry and taking the position in front of him.
Wow, so fast!
Barry felt a blur before his eyes, and before he could react, he was grabbed by the collar.
The surrounding scenery was distorted as if by a rapidly spinning kaleidoscope, blurring into a blur of light and shadow.
The Blue Flash slammed him hard into the Sphinx, creating a human-shaped dent in the ancient stone statue, from which rubble fell in a shower.
Then, he picked Barry up like a chick and began a crazy "torture journey".
They crashed into an Arctic glacier, creating a huge crack in the millennia-old ice layer, allowing seawater to rush in.
It crashed into the desert rocks, shattering the hard rock and raising clouds of dust.
It crashed into the hard forest, snapping thick trees in half, sending broken branches and leaves flying everywhere.
Bang! Bang! Bang! The sounds of impact, like a rapid drumbeat, echoed across the world, leaving behind human-shaped craters.
His speed far surpasses Barry's; Barry is no different from an ordinary person facing a speedster in front of him.
Barry was like a boxing glove, held in the hands of the Blue Flash as he vented his emotions.
A second later, the Blue Flash carried Barry back to his original spot and dumped him on the city street like trash.
Barry lay on the ground, panting heavily. His once bright red battle suit was now stained with all sorts of filth, covered in mud and gravel, and looked utterly tattered.
The Blue Flash's chest heaved violently, his anger still lingering.
After a while, he spoke slowly.
"I won't kill you. I will take your Speed Force back and throw you back into the world you were in before. Don't try to gain the Speed Force again. Stay with your parents."
Otherwise I'll cut off your legs and make you spend the rest of your life in a wheelchair."
Barry remained lying on the ground, not getting up, but simply asked...
"Tell me, who are you? Otherwise, I'll come back no matter how many times I come."
The voice was weak and had no intimidating power whatsoever.
But Blue Flash knew he was telling the truth; it was precisely this kind of stubbornness that made him the Flash.
"I am you, the future the Flash, the regretful the Flash, the tragic the Flash."
He slowly removed his mask, revealing a weathered, middle- Barry face.
"Why..."
Barry stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar face before him, his eyes filled with a mixture of shock, confusion, and bewilderment.
The Future Flash smiled bitterly, his eyes filled with weariness and despair.
"Did you think the Speed Force could bring everything? In the future, one tragedy after another made me realize that the Speed Force was nothing more than an illusory gift."
I tried to change the past and create a world without pain, but no matter what I did, I always ended up back where I started, until someone came and told me.
Because you in the main Timeline didn't choose to change the past, my world has also been unable to change. It's all because of Kino; he's abnormal. He doesn't exist in any other world, only in yours."
Barry sat up, looking at the weathered Barry Allen with a complicated expression, and asked, puzzled.
"But Brother Kino never hurt me; in fact, he helped me a lot."
"Hahahaha, of course he'll help you, because only you can create the Speed Force. Only if you live well can he obtain a continuous supply of the Speed Force. It's also because of his plundering that I'm so slow, always one step behind in the face of tragedy."
Who told you this?
"A madman."
Mentioning that person evokes a primal fear in the Future Flash. He doesn't even know why he feels this fear, even though he's only met him once.
"I've finished answering your question. Now it's your turn to fulfill your promise: never come back. I've taken the Speed Force; you don't need it living in a peaceful world."
After saying that, he reached out and grabbed Barry.
His wrist was grabbed, Future Flash's eyes were cold.
"Still trying to resist? You have extensive fractures and internal bleeding. Even with your Speed Force, it will take you an hour to recover your mobility... You're not injured!"
The Future Flash watched in disbelief as Barry nimbly stood up.
"Brother Kino gave me a new battle suit, saying it was very durable. I didn't expect it to withstand so much damage, but I don't feel any pain at all."
Barry chuckled and dusted off his clothes, revealing a subtle purple hue beneath his red suit.
"Even if your battle suit has strong defense, so what? You're still slower than me. You're just a punching bag!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Blue Lightning surged around the Future Flash, slowing the world down. He clenched his fingers into a katana-like motion and stabbed towards Barry's exposed eye.
Let me go blind!
He won't kill Barry; he needs to live to serve as another's timeline anchor.
The patterns on the surface of Barry's suit lit up, releasing all the absorbed kinetic energy into a Havok that sent the Future Flash flying.
The Future Flash was completely unprepared for this move.
He tumbled through the air, eventually turning into a rolling gourd on the ground, rolling several times before finally managing to stop in a disheveled, prone position, dragging himself along the ground.
He slowly gripped the soil on the ground and clenched his fist.
He slowly raised his head, his already cold eyes now filled with nothing but endless killing intent.
"You wasted your last chance!"
