Taking the escaped Mutants with him, Lynn slaughtered everyone in the entire experimental base.
Whether they were researchers trying to escape or prison guards hurriedly grabbing their weapons,
all of them were blasted to death by his Iron Fist, not even leaving intact corpses.
But Lynn knew he had to get out of there as soon as possible.
This base was only a branch facility.
The headquarters had terrifying power.
Not only did it have Level Four Mutants, and even those beyond Level Four, but it also had a modern armed force and military support.
For Lynn as he was now, a Level Four Mutant was an absolutely formidable and troublesome opponent.
So it was best to escape as soon as possible.
He turned to look at the Mutants behind him.
Most of them wore expressions of reverence.
"That's far enough. Hurry and get out of here."
Il, a Level Two Mutant among them, changed expression slightly and spoke up:
"Mutant leader, you..."
"Don't call me that," Lynn said calmly. "I only gave you a chance to survive."
He looked up at the starry sky. The vast, boundless Milky Way hung overhead, like a blazing fire.
"As long as we survive and unite the strength of all our people,
one day, we Mutants will kindle a spark that sets all of America ablaze."
With that, Lynn formed Hand Seals and used the Body Flicker Technique, propelled by a sudden burst of electricity.
His whole body instantly became a blurred afterimage and vanished from everyone's sight.
Only the ground, split with spiderweb-like cracks, remained in view.
"What do we do now?" someone asked blankly.
"Obviously, we get out of here and spread the Mutant leader's message to all our Mutant comrades!"
"If we unite, our spark will one day burn all of America to the ground, and all Mutants will be able to survive!"
Not long after Lynn and the Mutants left,
an armed force dispatched from the base headquarters arrived in tanks.
Cavan Martin, the armed squad's captain, sat atop a tank and grinned at his subordinate beside him.
"That Mutant girl yesterday was so damn hot. The way she felt... you can't even imagine it."
As armed personnel from the headquarters, they would often seek out Mutant girls and vent their desires on them.
But did Mutants even count as people?
They didn't even have the most basic civil rights, so of course the law didn't protect them.
So Cavan Martin treated those people the law didn't protect as nothing more than outlets for his lust.
"Heh... Boss, this time you've gotta let us have a taste too..."
A bald man beside him scratched his head, his brutish face breaking into a grin.
"Fuck! I'll hand them over once I'm done with them," Cavan said with a laugh.
Even though they knew something had happened at Base 23, they weren't worried about running into trouble.
After all, they had brought tanks, rocket launchers, and missiles.
No matter how powerful Subject 52 was, their shells would blast him to pieces.
However,
when the tank slowly rolled into Base 23, all they saw was a field of ruins.
Countless chunks of rubble lay scattered across the ground, and corpse after corpse, charred like coal, lay strewn about.
A light breeze stirred, scattering some of the blackened char from the bodies.
The once trapezoid-shaped Base 23 looked as though it had been struck by lightning and burned by fire, left in ruins.
Cavan froze at the sight.
Could Subject 52 have done this?
"Shit! Search the place! See if those damn Mutants all escaped!"
They soon found the Mutants hiding in their cells.
"Boss, what do we do with them?" the bald man asked.
Cavan's eyes gleamed with cold fury as anger surged in his chest.
Just moments ago, he had found his brother-in-law, Grant, dead in the laboratory.
Not even a whole corpse remained!
Clenching his teeth, he stared expressionlessly at the Mutants before him.
"Kill them all!"
With that, he turned and headed outside.
Gunshots rang out behind him.
The headquarters had just pulled up all of Base 23's surveillance footage and sent Cavan a file.
It stated that the escaped Subject 52 had an extraordinarily tough body, could move at super high speeds, and possessed terrifying strength.
He could also unleash high-energy lightning and a kind of black flame.
Cavan narrowed his eyes and gripped the tablet tightly in both hands.
"Damn Subject 52! Damn Mutant animals!"
Soon, the bald man and another squad of his men came over.
"Boss, we killed them all!"
"Good!"
Cavan stared into the darkness ahead, anger surging from his chest like an erupting volcano.
"Go after him! Find that damn Subject 52! I'll rip out his spine, flay him alive, and then tear out all his organs!"
Elsewhere,
after escaping the base, Lynn used the Transformation Technique to take on Brando's appearance.
As soon as he left the base, he hurried toward the nearest city.
To stay safe, he changed into the appearance of other passersby along the way.
If he kept using the faces of people from the base, they might recognize him.
After finding an inn, Lynn went into a room to rest for a while.
Looking around at the cleanly furnished room, Lynn felt a strange sense of loss.
"Who would've thought that just yesterday I was in a dark prison cell, and today I'd be here?"
With DC Lynn's healing ability and physical prowess, combined with the terrifying strength and heightened cellular activity granted by Electric Current Drive,
destroying Base 23 hadn't taken much out of him.
In fact, by the time he entered the inn, he had already fully recovered.
"Headquarters will definitely come after me. Even with the Transformation Technique, I can't afford to let my guard down."
Lynn remembered that Mystique had once been captured by those people in the Marvel universe.
The only way to be completely safe was to fight the base.
But fighting the base meant fighting all of America.
Even if he destroyed the headquarters, he would still have to face America's military.
And then there were America's S.H.I.E.L.D. and the Avengers,
along with the Level Four Mutants, those beyond Level Four, and the Sentinel Robots they had developed.
Lynn was skeptical about whether America had any Level Five Mutants.
After all, if America had a Level Five Mutant, it would probably have conquered the entire planet already.
So the most important thing was to first improve his Electric Current Drive.
Once he was powerful enough, he would wipe out America's entire leadership.
Just as Lynn was thinking,
a hazy Gray Fog appeared around him without warning.
It enveloped him, and his perspective rose once more.
He saw tanks and artillery slowly moving into an area near the city, where they were talking with the city's security force.
But in the next moment, Lynn's vision blurred.
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in the familiar Unknown Land.
Naruto Lynn and DC Lynn had already appeared in the hazy fog as well.
