Stormfront moved her fully healed facial muscles, revealing a haughty smirk.
"Useless. You can't kill me. That kind of attack doesn't even scratch. You inferior races... Hehehe!"
Before she could finish spewing from her foul mouth, a pair of steel-like hands forcefully seized her neck.
Jordan activated his superspeed. His grip acted like an iron vise, embedding half of Stormfront's body into the wall.
The umbrella he'd been holding fell into a large purple hand. F-boy, who'd remained in place, caught it seamlessly.
The surrounding biomagnetic field acted as an umbrella substitute, firmly blocking rain from entering the magnetic shield.
As a result, Jordan's clothes remained completely dry.
Jordan held the frantically struggling, suffocating Stormfront with one hand. He turned slightly, raising a finger toward his Stand behind him, the one holding an umbrella despite clearly not getting wet.
F-boy: ...If you have magnetic field protection, why bring an umbrella when going out? Isn't the host useless?
"F-boy, watch carefully and learn well. I'll only demonstrate once."
Jordan took a deep breath and exhaled hot air that dispersed the rain.
The surrounding downpour suddenly stopped. This strange phenomenon seemed to alert the struggling Stormfront.
Rainwater streamed down her wet short hair into her collar. She felt as if facing an upgraded version of Homelander. Otherwise she'd never be in such a sorry state.
Driven by overwhelming survival instinct, Stormfront unleashed a torrent of purple electricity, attempting to repel the incredibly strong, terrifying man before her.
But Jordan remained unmoved. His burly, imposing body became a bottomless pit connecting to another dimension. No matter how high she raised the surging purple current to maximum strength, he accepted without hesitation, absorbing everything into his body.
As a result, Stormfront's all-out energy burst only made his eyes glow slightly.
The battery charged too quickly.
If it were the original Starlight, the electricity burst generated in that instant would power her flight for an entire day.
Unfortunately, her physique couldn't forcibly seize plasma current created by superpowers like Jordan could. She'd be blasted away the moment she made contact.
She'd planned to release massive plasma current at once, then detonate simultaneously to blow him apart.
Good plan. Unfortunately, her release speed couldn't match Jordan's absorption rate.
Having failed the first attempt, Stormfront refused surrender. She tried again. One, two, three, four times.
This time, however, dazzling purple lightning flickered twice in her hand. It crackled as if experiencing a power outage, then extinguished completely.
She discovered with horror that she'd lost the ability to control electrical charges.
As a fellow electric-type superhuman, Stormfront vaguely sensed an unusual magnetic field enveloping the surrounding world. This field's existence completely stripped away her superpowers.
Without powers, Stormfront was merely a physically strong superhuman. Her super strength, second only to Homelander's, meant absolutely nothing before Jordan Evans.
At this moment, these five fingers formed the most solid cage in the world.
Light, dark green eyeshadow appeared around his eyes.
Highly concentrated white lightning with golden hue danced across skin and between muscle cells.
"Continuous barrage!"
Superhuman Strength loading!
"Serious Golden Combo!"
"Ora ora ora ora!"
(๑•̀ㅂ•́)و✧━━━━━━☆
"ORA ORA ORA ORA!"
Compared to the Serious Golden Combo's power and speed, Stormfront's proud recovery ability was a joke.
After three full pages' worth of relentless barrage, Jordan's eyes shone with ruby-red light. Yet two dazzling golden rays, like the midday sun, shot forth.
Having gained Light Energy Control from Starlight, his two ray-type attacks—Visual Shockwave and Heat Ray—had integrated into one.
The merged laser beam was specially adjusted by Jordan to golden color, making it more magnificent and grand than Homelander's original crimson laser full of destructive power.
The dazzling golden ray, carrying temperatures comparable to thermonuclear explosion, struck the dying Stormfront in the chest. It reduced the already unrecognizable Nazi remnant to ashes.
F-boy, still holding the umbrella, stepped forward and shoved it into Jordan's still-glowing eyes. His thick arm plunged into bloodstains on the ground, pulling out a zombie-like Stormfront spirit.
[Fate card draw count +1.]
With a heavy punch, F-boy shattered the intact spirit into countless flying spiritual particles, as if finally breathing relief.
He then took a blank card from his waist and activated his Stand ability.
Countless spiritual particles transformed into a vortex, violently sucked into the blank fantasy card.
"What was that last punch about? Venting anger?"
[Anti-regeneration strike. Preventing revival.]
"Cool. You win."
During the banter between body and Stand, F-boy flicked his wrist. A brilliant golden card flew toward Jordan.
[Fantasy Card: Stormfront]
Type: Character Card (Evil Hero) • Rarity: SSR
The Boys universe - A Nazi remnant who survived into the modern era. Desired to use Homelander as the ultimate breeding stock to continue the empire's bloodline, but her mission was cut short before achievement.
Effect 1: Lightning Storm
Manipulate electrical charges to create purple lightning and influence celestial phenomena. Can accumulate energy for large-scale plasma explosions and inject electricity into living beings or objects for remote electrical control.
Effect 2: Electric Flight
Fire lightning at ground during takeoff/landing, enabling supersonic flight speeds.
Effect 3: Super Strength
Slightly weaker than Homelander's strength but comparable to Queen Maeve's.
Effect 4: Super Resistance
Can withstand Homelander's laser attacks, suffering only minor surface skin tissue damage.
Effect 5: Self-Healing Regeneration
Rapid injury recovery, even from laser burns. Cellular regenerative factors maintain near-perpetual youth.
The Boys' style embodied darkness. The superheroes featured could generally find counterparts in Marvel and DC universes.
The Seven was modeled after DC's Justice League.
At first glance, Homelander clearly paralleled Superman, while Queen Maeve paralleled Wonder Woman.
Stormfront's counterpart was Marvel's Captain Marvel. The superhero team she'd once joined in the comic, well the team he once joined, "Payback," served as a parody version of the Avengers.
