"Be careful!"
"What are you spacing out for?"
Luke Cage blocked a sneak attack from the opponent and turned to ask Gwen, who seemed distracted.
"It's nothing."
Gwen shook her head, not telling him what she was thinking.
After all;
There was no way to clarify the situation right now, but one thing was certain.
The people in front of her were definitely enemies!
"No matter what, let's deal with these guys first!"
Gwen thought to herself... On a private jet.
Rhodey was casually scrolling through his phone.
Just then, a woman's voice came from nearby, and the mention of "Spider-Woman" immediately caught Rhodey's attention.
"What are you watching?"
Rhodey asked his friend next to him.
"BBC live news."
Rhodey's rich second-generation friend handed him his phone and explained: "It's news from Free City. You know that new Spider-Man who recently appeared? It looks like he ran into some trouble and found a teammate."
"Oh, and Spider-Woman, who disappeared for a while, has also appeared."
As Rhodey listened to the introduction, he also saw Gwen's figure in the live news broadcast on the phone screen.
"That person is Luke Cage, right?"
"And where did these people come from?"
Rhodey looked at the live footage. He could roughly guess the identity of the black strong man, but he didn't recognize the group of people opposite him at all.
But they also seemed to possess extraordinary strength, at least on the level of a Super Soldier.
And they looked fearless, somewhat like brainwashed fanatics such as the Winter Soldier.
"It's not HYDRA again, is it?"
Rhodey thought.
Whether it was HYDRA or not, Rhodey decided to go check it out.
After all, Gwen was there, and the enemies weren't ordinary criminals. Although Gwen had Spider-Sense and shouldn't get hurt.
But what if?
After all, Gwen had a history of getting injured.
So Rhodey still planned to go and keep an eye on things.
"Didn't he say they were practicing with the band?"
Rhodey shook his head, made an excuse that he was going to the restroom, and then, after entering the restroom, instantly disappeared via a Teleportation.
Hells Kitchen.
Rhodey's figure appeared on the rooftop of a building.
Not far in front of him was where Gwen and the others were fighting. At this moment, Rhodey's clothes had changed into the style of a Red Battle Suit. If anyone familiar with DC Comics were present, they would easily recognize Rhodey's current appearance as that of the Superhero Flash from the neighboring DC universe.
Swish!
The red figure vanished.
Rhodey teleported to the battlefield.
Almost as soon as he arrived, a sharp blade stabbed straight toward his forehead!
???
Rhodey had a face full of question marks.
He didn't know if he was just unlucky, or if the opponent was prescient and knew he would appear in that exact spot.
But it was probably the former.
"Watch out!"
At this moment, Gwen, who should have been the one under attack, also cried out in surprise.
It turned out Rhodey had instantly teleported between Gwen and a Poison Squad member.
No wonder he was attacked the moment he arrived.
"What?"
Rhodey turned his head and asked.
"Watch out for the knife!"
Gwen shouted.
But it was already too late.
Just as she shouted "Watch out for the knife," the knife had already plunged into the back of Rhodey's head.
However, after the knife struck the back of Rhodey's head, it couldn't penetrate any further, as if the back of Rhodey's head was the hardest metal in the World.
No matter how hard that Poison Squad member tried, it was useless!
"..."
Gwen stared blankly at Rhodey, who had turned to look at her, her dazed gaze slowly shifting to the knife pressed against the back of his head.
"Are you alright?"
Gwen couldn't help but ask.
"I'm fine."
Rhodey shook his head, and then the knife rubbed back and forth on the back of his head.
It was almost sparking Fire.
"Are you really alright?"
Gwen couldn't help but ask again.
"Is there a problem?"
Rhodey asked her.
Gwen pointed behind him.
As soon as Rhodey turned his head, the Poison Squad member swung the knife at him again.
But this time, Rhodey simply reached out and tapped.
Bang!
The Poison Squad member flew backward.
Whoosh!
Peter landed nearby.
"Flash?!"
He looked at Rhodey and exclaimed.
"Hello, Spider-Man!"
Flash Rhodey greeted him with a smile.
Gwen, "..."
Although she had never seen this "Flash" before, Gwen felt a strong sense of familiarity.
She thought back and suddenly remembered why she felt familiar with this guy.
"You're that Batman from last time!"
Gwen said, looking at Rhodey.
"No, I'm the Flash!"
Rhodey emphasized.
"Don't lie to me, you're that Batman from last time!"
Gwen wouldn't believe the nonsense Rhodey was saying.
Last time, this guy tricked her the same way.
He said he was Batman, but then he used his teleportation ability to deal with those two superpowered criminals.
Heaven knows how Batman could possibly teleport!
So this guy definitely wasn't Batman.
Of course!
He couldn't be the Flash either!
"Believe me, I really am the Flash!" Rhodey said, "If you don't believe me, I'll show you."
With that, Rhodey instantly vanished, reappearing with a Poison Squad member already in his hand.
The guy was still struggling, punching and kicking at Rhodey.
Unfortunately, all that kinetic energy was absorbed by Rhodey.
Rhodey felt nothing at all.
"See how fast I am!"
Rhodey said.
"Oh my goodness~! He's really fast! I didn't even see how he ran over there, you really are the Flash!!"
The naive Peter believed Rhodey's nonsense, exclaiming with an adoring look in his eyes.
Meanwhile, Gwen had already seen through Rhodey's trick.
Fast speed?
Fast my foot!
That was clearly teleportation!!
Do you think I'm as foolish as this Spider-Man next to me?
"Hey~! Can you three come help out?!"
Just then, Luke Cage suddenly shouted at the three of them.
It turned out that while the three of them were talking, Luke Cage was already being surrounded by over a dozen Poison Squad members.
