Superman's Saiyan little brother

Hearing the voice coming from outside the dust cloud, Murphy was momentarily stunned. The voice sounded familiar, and an unavoidable surge of anger welled up in his heart as soon as he heard it.

Robert! Yes, the owner of this voice was Robert!

When Bucky and Steve saw Robert's figure, they both breathed a sigh of relief. Even Tony Stark, who was watching from afar, felt the same way. Although they didn't know that Robert had fought Murphy before, they had great confidence in Robert.

"It's you?!" As Steve and the others relaxed, Murphy finally remembered this old adversary, Robert. Last time, his plan with the Joker had failed because of Robert!

Although Murphy eventually managed to bring the Joker back to Hell and even took over the Joker's body, the previous defeat by Robert and his subsequent retreat were still hard for Murphy to accept.

Now, Murphy had just found an interesting soul worth collecting, but once again, Robert interrupted him. How could Murphy tolerate this? Even though he hadn't gained any advantage against Steve, Murphy didn't believe that Steve and Bucky, even with their jet, could deal with him. If Robert hadn't shown up, it would have only been a matter of time before Murphy completed his harvesting of Steve's soul.

But now, things were different. With Robert here, it wouldn't be easy to make a move against Steve, and even leaving wouldn't be simple.

However, Murphy's anger was fleeting. He quickly recalled his purpose for coming to Earth this time. Steve was just a little amusement along the way. Now that Robert was here, Murphy had no desire to stay.

With a buzzing sound, Murphy immediately controlled the Joker car to speed towards him, while his body also headed towards it, aiming to get back into the Joker car before the dust settled.

Murphy and the Joker car were converging quickly.

Murphy's plan was sound. If it weren't for the delay caused by his anger upon recognizing Robert, he would have already transformed into a flaming chariot and escaped.

Unfortunately, having experienced Murphy's escape last time, Robert was extremely vigilant. Even when Murphy recognized him and seemed ready to fight, Robert didn't believe it, because the words of a Hell Lord weren't to be trusted!

With a loud bang, Robert suddenly appeared above the Joker car, stomping it to a halt instantly.

The Joker car deformed violently, its engine compartment completely crushed, but it still roared incessantly. If it weren't for Robert's foot holding it down, it would still be speeding towards Murphy.

The Joker car was indeed unyielding, augmented by Hellfire. As long as the Hellfire's power wasn't extinguished, the car was virtually indestructible.

At this moment, the Joker car even attempted to retaliate, with powerful Hellfire trying to burn Robert's body through his foot. Unfortunately for it, Robert was protected by an aura barrier, leaving him unaffected.

As Robert pinned down the Joker car, Murphy didn't hesitate, stopping in his tracks and running in the opposite direction.

Murphy wouldn't be so cowardly if he had any chance of winning. He would rather fight Robert, but now he saw no chance of victory.

Previously, Murphy had made a pact with the Earth's dimension to descend with a massive amount of power to deal with Robert, but he failed. Now, occupying the Joker's body, his power was even less than before, so he didn't dare to face Robert head-on.

"If the cost wasn't so high, I wouldn't let you go!" Murphy thought as he changed his escape route, "Once I achieve my goal this time and can summon more power on Earth, it will be your end! Last time you showed great strength, but you haven't seen my full power yet!"

Unaware of Robert's significant power increase since their last battle, Murphy hadn't given up on dealing with him. If Robert knew Murphy's thoughts, he might let him achieve his goal first and then deal with him.

But now, Robert certainly wouldn't let Murphy go. Seeing Murphy fleeing in another direction, Robert wasn't surprised. Having fought before, he wouldn't be shocked by anything Murphy did, especially since he was prepared.

With a bang, just as Murphy thought he had escaped, he ran into an invisible barrier, forcing him to stop.

If Murphy had descended in his original form, he could have slipped through the psychic barrier silently, but now, occupying the Joker's physical body, even with great strength, he needed time to break through it. By then, Robert had caught up.

Feeling Robert's approach, Murphy's face darkened. Hellfire erupted from him, breaking through the psychic barrier. It was the first time an enemy had shattered Robert's barrier.

However, Robert didn't mind. He hadn't expected the barrier to completely stop a Hell Lord. It had delayed Murphy just enough for Robert to catch up.

With a thud, as the barrier broke, Robert kicked Murphy, knocking him out of his flame form back into a flaming skull.

"Saiyan! Are you seeking death?" The enraged Murphy, now a flaming skeleton, roared. In the distance, the Joker car roared louder, trying to crash into Robert.

But the Joker car remained immobile, unable to break free from the aura Robert had placed on it. Despite its indestructibility, it was stuck.

Seeing the Joker car's futile struggle, Murphy knew escape was nearly impossible. His expression darkened as he unleashed fiery chains towards Robert.

With a clang, Robert's energy blade sliced through the fiery chains. Although it didn't destroy them, they continued to extend towards Robert, who kept cutting them down.

Chain after chain fell, and the clash continued. Everyone watching was stunned.

Extraordinary powers weren't new, but a seemingly infinite chain was bizarre.

"If only my armor had such infinite regenerative ability, material wear wouldn't be a problem," thought Tony Stark, realizing how far science still had to go to reach such levels.

"Troublesome power!" Robert frowned at the endless chains. His energy blade morphed into a whip, now crackling with thunder.

With a snap, the thunder whip and fiery chains entangled, Hellfire and lightning clashing, cracking the ground.

The fiery and thunderous light made Steve and Bucky avert their eyes, and even those watching the broadcast found it hard to look directly at the clash.

Murphy's flaming skull stiffened as lightning traveled through the chains towards him.

Unbeknownst to Murphy, Robert had activated his Giant Ape Power·Rage form, enhancing his strength, leaving Murphy even more helpless.

With a roar, Murphy, his flames dimming, seemed to grit his teeth. An explosion at the point of clash blew apart the chains.

As the chains exploded, Murphy didn't hesitate, turning into a blaze and disappearing.

But Robert was faster. Anticipating Murphy's move, he intercepted him, punching Murphy's skull.

With a bang, Murphy, caught off guard, was sent flying, crashing into the ground, leaving a scorched crater.

Robert followed, relentlessly punching the dazed Murphy, shaking the ground. Steve watched the tremors in silence.

Steve had hoped to test his new armor, but now he realized its limitations in the extraordinary world, where even observing the fight from afar was risky.

"Damn it! Saiyan, do you really want a deathmatch? Do you think you're immortal, never to go to Hell?" Murphy's angry voice echoed underground. He was losing, unable to fend off Robert's relentless attacks. If not for the value of the Joker's body, Murphy would have abandoned it and returned to Hell.

"Don't worry, I'll visit Hell eventually, but not now. When I have time, I'll open the gates of Hell myself. Make sure to welcome me properly!" Robert said, punching Murphy and mocking him.

"I hear Hell is much tougher than Earth. When I get there, I won't hold back my destructive power, and it won't matter how much I destroy since it's not my territory. Speaking of which, there isn't a Hell portal down here, is there?"

"You bastard!" Murphy's anger surged, but it couldn't change the battle's outcome. He was still at a disadvantage, losing his ability to fight back.

Murphy sensed Robert's strength had grown significantly since their last battle, but he had no proof.

With a bang, Robert's punch sent Murphy flying into the sky.

Underground battles shouldn't last too long, or they might blow up the Earth...
