And although Barry was faster than Johnny Quick, he wasn't someone who was good at attacking proactively, so he just ran forward with his head down, not attacking the enemy at all.
Little Flash, frustrated, said in his ear, "Attack him!"
Barry just stammered, "I don't think that's necessary…"
"According to this unit's observation, your opponent doesn't seem to think so."
How could Johnny Quick's small movements escape Little Flash? It was watching him 360 degrees.
It saw Johnny Quick take a weapon from his body. It was a cold weapon.
In a speedster's battle, hot weapons couldn't hit anyone unless they were laser weapons.
But laser weapons weren't very effective in an atmospheric environment, which is why Johnny Quick always carried cold weapons.
However, in reality, for a speedster, speed itself is a form of power. Most of the time, no weapons are needed at all.
Johnny Quick carrying such a weapon indicated that he often used it to ambush others and already had experience.
The enemy was already prepared for an ambush, but Barry still held the thought of trying not to take lives. Little Flash didn't know whether to be relieved by his kindness or angry at his pedantry.
But Johnny Quick quickly shifted his attention. He found that his subordinates were contacting him.
At the moment, he couldn't catch Flash, so he could only stop for a while. In a Speed Force state, it was impossible for him to communicate normally with people; the flow of time was different.
"What is it? You know I'm busy."
But a loud cry for help came from the other end of the headset: "Boss, our men are about to be wiped out by the Rogues!"
Johnny Quick briefly understood what was happening on the other side, cursed "idiots," and then started running back.
As for Flash, he suddenly had another good idea.
Since this guy liked being a hero so much, would he come back to save innocent people if they were in danger?
Just a few seconds later, Johnny Quick ran back to the Central City bank. Captain Cold instantly spotted him.
"He's back!"
Captain Cold roared, and all Rogues members immediately turned their guns and fired at Johnny Quick, while Captain Cold quickly picked up his Cold Gun.
Johnny Quick, in a Speed Force state, easily dodged all the bullets. When he saw Captain Cold's muzzle, he sneered, "Do you think replacing 4.9 with a new gun will make any difference to the current situation?"
However, Captain Cold had already pulled the trigger. This trigger was designed by him to be very sensitive; it didn't need to be pulled all the way. Just a light touch, and the freezing ray would fire.
Captain Cold designed the ray to travel at the speed of light, but unfortunately, to carry the freezing capability, its firing speed was still greatly reduced.
Therefore, Johnny Quick quickly realized something was wrong and hurriedly dodged the ray, but some of the ray still grazed his arm, freezing one of his hands.
Johnny Quick instantly lost sensation in that hand. He lost feeling in that arm, but he also successfully avoided the most fatal blow.
The freezing ray couldn't be fired multiple times in a short period; after all, this was Captain Cold's first prototype, but the results were already extraordinary.
It was important to know that for so many years, no one had been able to touch Johnny Quick, let alone harm him.
But his good luck seemed to end there. Captain Cold saw that his battle results were not fully achieved and felt a bit regretful.
He knew he only had this one chance. If he didn't seize it, he would face Johnny Quick's furious retaliation, and he was prepared to die.
Johnny Quick was indeed enraged. Although one of his hands was temporarily immobile, the other hand was fine.
Therefore, he threw the weapon originally prepared for Flash. With the enhancement of the Speed Force, it was faster than any bullet, almost instantly arriving in front of Captain Cold's brow.
But just as that weapon was about to kill Captain Cold, Flash rushed into the battlefield in time and grabbed it.
The electric arc flashing from that weapon struck Captain Cold's Cold Gun, making a soft "click" sound..
