"This is what the Enhancement Serum does? Pretty interesting!" Seeing that Scorpion and Tombstone had clearly grown taller, 2B felt no fear at all. Instead, she was full of interest.

Her creator had been working on some kind of Batman Suit these past few days to enhance his combat strength, but in her opinion, armor was still an external source of power. It was nowhere near as practical as strengthening one's body with a serum.

So, she planned to take the Enhancement Serum back and offer it to her creator. With her creator's intelligence, perhaps he could improve it and create an even more perfect Enhancement Serum.

That way, even without wearing the Batman Suit, her creator would possess formidable combat strength. That would be a wonderful thing.

"Pretty interesting? Damn woman, I'll make you die today!" As the Enhancement Serum entered his body, Tombstone felt as though he had been injected with adrenaline. He was filled with excitement, and more than that, he felt power surging through him.

Before injecting the Enhancement Serum, he could probably lift a two-thousand-jin object and release heat of roughly one hundred degrees from his body. But now, with the serum in his system, his overall abilities had doubled.

In other words, his strength had now reached at least four thousand jin, while the heat he could release exceeded two hundred degrees. Such an increase filled him with confidence in his own power.

As he spoke, he launched an attack on 2B. He burst toward her in a single stride, then threw his clenched fist like a cannonball, clearly intending to kill 2B in one blow.

But what he never expected was that his full-force punch appeared as light as a feather in 2B's eyes, utterly powerless.

2B did not even dodge. Expressionless, she raised a hand and closed it around his fist, calmly and effortlessly catching his all-out strike.

"How is this possible?!" Seeing his full-power attack caught so easily, Tombstone's face changed drastically, his eyes filled with disbelief.

"You don't have much strength, but your mouth sure is big. How exactly are you supposed to make me die? You're the one who should die!"

2B shook her head disdainfully, then suddenly tightened her grip. With a crack, she directly crushed Tombstone's fist.

"Ah!!" Intense agony swept through Tombstone's body, making him let out a miserable scream.

"That's all it took? You're laughably weak!" 2B said expressionlessly, her words carrying extreme contempt for Tombstone.

Hearing 2B's mockery, Tombstone's expression suddenly turned vicious. Enduring the pain, he released scorching heat from his body, seemingly intending to use it to make 2B let go of his hand.

But in the face of his heat attack, 2B merely tilted her head, not taking it seriously at all.

She was a robot and had no sense of pain. Moreover, the artificial skin Loren had made for her was itself heat-resistant material. Not to mention a mere two hundred degrees—even one thousand degrees could not harm her in the slightest.

"Your body gets hot? That's your ability? How useless!"

"H-How is that possible!"

Seeing that the heat he released could not hurt 2B at all, Tombstone's eyes filled with terror. He had already known that the woman before him was absurdly strong.

But he had not expected her to be this absurdly strong! Was she even human? She was practically a humanoid monster!

Realizing he was no match for 2B, Tombstone immediately cried for help. "Scorpion, what are you standing around for? Help me kill her!"

At his words, Scorpion, who had been watching the show from the side, immediately attacked. He controlled his scorpion tail and viciously stabbed it toward the back of 2B's head, attempting to ambush her from behind.

But before his scorpion tail could strike her, 2B did not even turn her head. She simply swung the katana in her hand behind her.

In an instant, his scorpion tail was severed!

Seeing this, his eyes widened. His Scorpion Suit had been forged from specially made steel, and in the past, his scorpion tail could even pierce steel.

Yet now, that woman had effortlessly cut it off. It was simply unbelievable!

If he had not seen it with his own eyes, he would never have believed it even if beaten to death.

For her to instantly cut through a scorpion tail forged from specially made steel, at least two things could be certain.

First, the katana in that woman's hand was no ordinary weapon. The material used to forge it was definitely superior to that of his Scorpion Suit.

Second, the woman before him possessed strength beyond imagination, far beyond anything he could reach. Otherwise, sharpness alone could never have achieved such a feat.

Having understood those two points, fear immediately rose in his heart. He wanted to abandon Tombstone and flee alone.

Unfortunately, his plan was beautiful, but reality was cruel.

Because after 2B cut off his scorpion tail, she did not stop there. She suddenly exerted force and directly hurled Tombstone toward him.

Scorpion was startled and immediately retreated rapidly. But before he could get very far, Tombstone, like a sandbag, had already slammed heavily into him.

The massive impact sent him flying backward. In the end, he and Tombstone crashed to the ground together, looking utterly bedraggled.

However, both Tombstone and Scorpion were extremely experienced fighters. The instant they hit the ground, they immediately rolled away and quickly got back to their feet.

But 2B seemed to have anticipated that move. The moment they stood up, her figure followed close behind.

Then, the katana in her hand turned into a blur. Before they could react, it pierced through both their bodies and viciously nailed them to the office wall.

"Ah! Ah!!" Tombstone and Scorpion let out shrill screams.

At that moment, they were like skewers, forcibly impaled together by 2B. The sight was bloody and bizarre, like something out of an old-school Hong Kong murder film.

"Looks like the Enhancement Serum you took didn't work. Then again, trash will always be trash. No matter what you consume, it's useless. Now, you can go die."

2B spoke with disdain. Then, the Anti-Gravity Drone following behind her fired two bullets, instantly piercing through Tombstone's and Scorpion's heads.

Just like that, all three of Kingpin's top lackeys had fallen.

However, when 2B turned to look for Kingpin, she saw that he had already slipped through a hidden door and swiftly left the office, retreating toward the rooftop. At the same time, the security system throughout Kingpin Tower activated.

At once, a large group of subordinates rapidly rushed toward her...
