The Comprehensive Evolution of American Comics.

Chapter 1205 Deep Sea Danger

After undergoing its ultimate evolution, Steel Fang not only gained new abilities, but its original abilities were also further enhanced.

For example, his original foundation, his mouthful of steel teeth, which could be named after him.

Their sharp teeth, which could already easily tear through steel, have now evolved to the point where they can tear through the armor of a scarab beetle.

Red Beetle's blind confidence in its scarab armor allowed Yang Le to find an opportunity to kill it instantly.

Once the armor is removed, Yang Le can easily crush it into mincemeat.

Yang Le carelessly discarded the red beetle's limbs, turned around and re-entered the school of fish, disappearing without a trace once again. This time, he followed the surging tide of fish to the side of the green beetle.

Yang Le used the same tactic again this time, employing a decoy strategy in an attempt to deal with the green beetles just as he had dealt with the red beetles before.

But to Yang Le's surprise, the green beetle remained unmoved by the bait he released, as if it knew it was a feint.

Although it was beyond his expectations, Yang Le couldn't let such a small problem deter him from taking action. In order to find out what was going on, he chose to take the initiative.

Yang Le swam with the tide of fish to the back of the green beetle, and then suddenly burst out of the school of fish to attack the latter.

The green beetle suddenly turned around and aimed its pre-prepared cannon at Yang Le, firing a shot into the latter's gaping maw.

At such close range, there was no way to dodge. Fortunately, Yang Le was prepared and immediately closed his mouth. The energy beam struck the sharp teeth but not only failed to penetrate them, it was even deflected.

This was far beyond Green Beetle's expectations. He never imagined that his confident attack would fail to even injure his opponent.

The teeth that can cut through the scarab beetle's armor have more than just sharpness as an advantage. Without the most basic sturdiness as a foundation, no matter how sharp they are, they are of little use.

After testing by Yang Le himself, the teeth of the Ultimate Steel Tooth were comparable in terms of sturdiness to the outer shell of the Thunderclap Bomb. Ordinary weapons could not even leave a mark on them, let alone penetrate them.

While the green beetle was still in shock, the light-emitting organ extending from Yang Le's head suddenly lit up, and the dazzling flash instantly filled the beetle's entire field of vision.

This level of flash was no different from a flashbang. The green beetle endured the discomfort in its eyes and immediately handed over control of its body to the scarab beetle.

Upon detecting a deadly threat, the scarab beetle conjured several weapons. In addition to the hand cannon and sword it initially possessed, several strangely shaped firearms also appeared on its shoulders and waist.

Yang Le extended his appendages just before the scarab beetle fired.

These two appendages were two semi-ovals that were attached to Yang Le's ribs. When extended, they became two ferocious and terrifying claws.

After using one of his pincers to clamp down on the green beetle, Yang Le suddenly felt dizzy. He shook his head and felt a little better.

"Is this a mental attack?" Yang Le looked at the green beetle held in pincers with surprise. Judging from its slender body, he made a bold guess.

"Could it be that you're from Mars?"

As soon as this thought crossed Yang Le's mind, a somewhat uncertain memory surfaced: in the original *Young Justice* comics, there was a Martian controlled by a scarab beetle. Could it be that the green scarab beetle before him was that Martian? It wasn't impossible; after all, the mental attack he'd just witnessed couldn't be faked, especially considering the fact that the other party had just been able to sense his actual attack.

That green beetle is most likely the Martian.

However, the mental attack just now was too weak. It probably couldn't even compare to an ordinary Martian child, let alone Martian hunters and Martian girls.

However, it's understandable that it's so weak, since the scarab beetle is meant to control the creature it parasitizes, so it would definitely restrict the mental abilities of the parasitized Martian, otherwise it might escape.

Therefore, the mental shock released by the green beetle should have come from the Martian's biological instincts, but it was so weak because it was suppressed.

After a moment's thought, Yang Le released the shapeshifter from the Omnitrix, intending to remove the scarab behind the Blue Beetle, just as he had done before.

However, this process was rather lengthy, and Yang Le couldn't wait indefinitely, so he abandoned the unconscious green beetle and swam back towards the black beetle.

As the saying goes, many ants can kill an elephant. The steel-eating fish, which are only a few micrometers in size, can also form a force that cannot be ignored when they gather together. Combined with the power of the sea water, this is the crystallization of the Reach Zerg. The scarab was unable to escape for a while.

However, the intelligent AI on the scarab beetle quickly came up with a solution. It controlled the black beetle's body to smoothly enter the fish tide and drift with the current, believing that it could escape in a little while.

Yang Le saw all of this, and he opened his blood-red mouth and reached out to pluck out three teeth.

These teeth had just been extracted, and a little tooth tip was already protruding from where Yang Le's teeth were missing. This was not because he had a strong self-healing ability, but simply because his teeth grew quickly.

Although the Ultimate Steel Jaw's self-healing ability is indeed quite good, and the wound that was cut by the Black Beetle has healed, there are still obvious scars.

The principle is actually similar to that of sharks, except that they can grow indefinitely and grow very fast.

Moreover, these teeth have another characteristic: they are not as hard after being removed from Yang Le's gums. According to Yang Le's tests, their hardness level drops by about one level.

Although it is still very hard, it can now be broken into pieces by the Ultimate Steel Jaws.

Yang Le used his arms to crush the three teeth into pieces, then commanded the Steel-Eating Fish to bite the pieces of the teeth and swim towards the Black Beetle.

At the same time, Yang Le also ordered the fish tide to change its swimming direction, forming an 8 in the water, which is an infinitely looping Möbius strip.

The black beetle that follows the fish tide will soon find itself unable to swim out no matter what, but it will die before that happens.

Why? Naturally, it's because of those steel-eating fish that were biting his teeth. You see, although the teeth that had been separated from his gums weren't as hard, their sharpness remained unchanged. Every tooth fragment had exceptionally sharp edges and corners.

At this moment, the black beetle was like swimming in a pool of blades; facing teeth that could cut through its armor, it was as naked as a fish.

Sure enough, not long after, a cloud of blood mist gradually enveloped the school of fish.
