344. Cyber-Metal Justice League.


    Mera had just appeared on one side, but on the other, the enemy''s assault was already upon them.


    rk felt the powerful gust rushing toward him. Without hesitation, he stepped forward, clenching his fist as he met the iing de head-on.


    A deafening explosion echoed across the tform as two immense forces shed, sending water vapor scattering. The intense shockwave even caused theva below to bubble and roil.


    With one punch, the attacking figure was forced back, lingering for a moment before flipping through the air andnding stably on the ground.


    Only now did ck Canary see the attacker''s face clearly.


    "…How… could it be?!"


    The attacker was none other than her close friend, Wonder Woman Diana. But now, Diana bore no resemnce to the Amazonian warrior she once was; she had been fully transformed into a mechanical being.


    Not only had her headband been engraved with Apokolips'' insignia, but her left eye had also been reced by a red electronic eye. ck Canary was instantly reminded of Bullseye from another world; Diana''s altered state bore a disturbing simrity to his necrotic enhancements.


    Perhaps the only thing left that could confirm her identity was the Lasso of Truth coiled around her waist.


    "Diana, it''s me! Don''t you recognize me?!" ck Canary shouted, trying to awaken any trace of her friend''s consciousness hidden within.


    But her voice had no effect. Diana''s gaze remained hollow, carrying a cold, mechanical intent to kill. She moved like a programmed robot, executing themands set by her controller.


    "It''s no use. Darkseid has remorselessly transformed them. They likely don''t remember who we are," rk said, fists trembling in fury.


    No one could understand his anguish at that moment. Watching his closest allies turned into monstrosities by the enemy—and all due to his own wed n—filled rk with overwhelming guilt.


    Mera and Wonder Woman''s arrival was only the beginning. Soon, Hawkman, now a cybeic birdman, descended from the sky, while Starfire and Martian Manhunter emerged from the darkness behind Damian.


    Starfire was in slightly better shape, still mostly humanoid but with a mechanical jaw. Martian Manhunter, however, was almost unrecognizable, with four mechanical legs and a tail resembling a cyber-scorpion.


    "I''m sorry for what''s happened to all of you," rk said sincerely. "I failed you all."


    "Now''s not the time for that, Superman. The enemy clearly doesn''t intend to let us through," Jason remarked, standing behind Martian Manhunter and readying his custom batons. "Honestly, I never thought I''d be fighting Martian Manhunter."


    Jason''s words seemed to ignite the battle. Martian Manhunter roared, his hand morphing into a dragon''s head and lunging at Jason.


    Jason didn''t retreat but instead advanced, a move he''d perfected thanks to Damian''s "training." With his enhancedbat abilities from the super-soldier serum, Jason leaped at thest moment, letting the dragon''s head miss while he ran up Martian Manhunter''s extended arm.


    Meanwhile, Wonder Woman began her assault, raising her de and aiming for rk''s neck. This time, rk didn''t respond; instead, ck Canary intercepted.


    "In the name of Thor—"


    ck Canary extended her hand, and Mjolnir instantly flew to her grasp. Thunder enveloped her, and Thor''s power formed armor around her.


    As hammer and sword shed, a terrifying aura filled the air.


    "Diana, do you truly not remember me?" ck Canary asked repeatedly as she struggled to fend off Wonder Woman''s relentless attacks.


    "I am the Captain of the New Avengers Divine Guard. I will judge the heretics!" Wonder Woman Diana replied mechanically.


    "Well, here I was hoping to share my new power with you. But it seems I''ll just have to let you experience it firsthand," ck Canary sighed, then narrowed her eyes. "Don''t hold a grudge, especially when I''m giving you a thorough beating."


    "<strong>Haaa!"</strong>


    Unwilling to continue the exchange, Wonder Woman shouted and intensified her attack.


    While the two women shed, rk faced off against Starfire and Hawkman.


    These two weren''t original members of the Justice League. Starfire was a former Teen Titans member,ter invited to join the League due to her exceptional talent and performance. Hawkman was typically with the Justice Society in other multiverses but had moved to the Justice League due to a significant event in the primary universe.


    "Forgive me," rk said sadly before sending Starfire flying with a single punch. Despite being an alien, her powers were no match for Kryptonian might; she couldn''t even gather energy before crashing into a wall.


    Afterward, rk turned, ripping off Hawkman''s mechanical wings. The Nth metal mace Hawkman wielded couldn''t prate Superman''s defenses, and rk then crushed Hawkman''s mechanical spine underfoot.


    Watching from a distance, Damian was speechless at rk''s ability to "subdue" their allies so effortlessly.


    No wonder Batman was always ready to fight him.


    While the battle raged, Dick, who hadn''t joined the fray, observed the fight, hacking into Apokolips''work. Finally, he uncovered something and spoke through the earpiece.


    "The Justice League members have been modified, but Darkseid retained theirbat awareness by not erasing their memories. If we can locate the central control system, we might be able to restore their consciousness."


    Knocking Martian Manhunter down with a strike, Jason dodged the counterattack from his tail, seizing the moment to ask, "Are you sure they can be restored?"


    "I''m sure!" Dick replied firmly. "I''ve found the central control console''s location. But they''ve detected my hack; I believe Batman is there."


    "Bruce is there? Great!" Jason''s face lit up. "In that case, let''s get moving."


    "What about these guys?" Damian asked, struggling to evade Mera''s magic attacks. As a regr human, he found facing someone like Mera was an overwhelming challenge.


    Her magic attacks kept draining his energy from a distance. Whenever Damian managed to get close, she wielded Aquaman''s trident to force him back, keeping him on the defensive.


    "We can''t give Batman time to prepare; we need to reach that console fast!" Jason urged.


    "You''re right, but it''s unlikely we can take them down quickly—they''re Justice League members, after all," Damian called out.


    The Robins'' conversation reached rk''s ears. Seeing Wonder Woman, Martian Manhunter, and Mera''s relentless attacks, he realized that even he would struggle to subdue all three.


    At that moment, ck Canary spoke up.


    "Enough arguing! I''ll stay behind and hold them off—go to the central control console, now!"
