American comics start with asking Iron Man a question.

Chapter 434 The Amazing Flash Trips Up His Own

“Well.” Thor couldn’t help but laugh out loud. “I have to say, in all my years of fighting across the country, I’ve never seen anything like this before.”

"Could it be because the Flash gave in too quickly, causing... a loss of steering ability? And then he accidentally tripped over someone?" Captain America thought for a moment and made a serious guess.

“Since the Flash possesses lightning speed, I think his body should be able to adapt to that speed, right?” Clark Kent thought for a moment and said this.

He offered another guess: "Could it be that the Flash was injured during the fight, which led to this situation?"

The people present nodded in agreement; clearly, this was the more plausible reason.

“That’s not important,” Tony Stark said. “How the Flash tripped is irrelevant to me; it doesn’t affect our answers!”

"All we need to know is that this was an accident."

This didn't surprise anyone at all. The Flash was tripped up by members of the Justice League, his own comrades. What else could it be but an accident?

It couldn't have been someone who deliberately tripped over it, could it?

"Wait a moment!"

Diana suddenly spoke up, as if another possibility had occurred to her: "Is it possible that this wasn't actually an accident?"

"It's because some unavoidable situation arose on the battlefield, for example, the Flash was in danger!"

"And the others had to deliberately trip the Flash in order to save him?"

Ah this!

Diana's words left everyone speechless, because this situation is absolutely true!

"So, the Flash could have tripped accidentally, or he could have been tripped on purpose?" Thor scratched his head, feeling rather annoyed.

If that's the case, the situation becomes a bit complicated.

At least that's how it seems to Thor, because whether it was intentional or unintentional, he sees no way to analyze it.

After all, apart from the members of both sides involved, no one knew any other relevant information about this battle.

"Gentlemen... I think we might need to consider another situation."

Bruce Wayne suddenly spoke up, "When the Flash tripped, was it at lightning speed or at normal speed?"

"The Flash can certainly reach lightning speed at any time, but we cannot assume that he is at lightning speed when he is tripped."

"Because normal speed is the speed that the Flash maintains most of the time."

"Bruce Wayne, you've made this problem even more complicated."

Thor looked helpless. The problem had already been divided into two cases, but now it had been divided into two cases again.

Combining this with the previous classification, wouldn't there be a total of four possibilities?

Isn't that just awful?

"Tripped over at normal speed?" Thor raised an eyebrow, thinking that the possibility was not very high. "We've all seen footage of The Flash in action, and this guy doesn't know a single fighting skill."

"His only reliance is his lightning speed! In other words, the Flash only knows how to use lightning speed in combat!"

Everyone around them then understood what Thor meant. Bruce Wayne's statement about normal speed meant that the Flash had not engaged in combat!

He was tripped by someone while in a "non-combat state".

Upon closer examination, this situation is actually not very likely.

“We can’t rule out that possibility.” But Captain America, who always seeks the best, pondered and said, “Thor, what you said makes some sense, but it’s more of a mindset.”

"We don't know any details about this battle, so we certainly can't rule out any of the scenarios Bruce Wayne mentioned."

Everyone present joined the discussion and eventually reached a consensus: although the possibility of being tripped up at "normal speed" was subconsciously felt to be unlikely, it could not be ruled out.

"Heh, then this problem gets complicated." Thor shrugged a little helplessly. "Does anyone have any ideas on how to analyze it?"

"Let's take a look at the options first!" Captain America suggested to everyone after a moment of thought.

Analyzing this problem from a macro perspective is far too complex, even daunting. So let's try analyzing it from a different angle.

The group exchanged glances, and naturally, no one voiced any objections.

"Option A, Superman Clark Kent?"

With Captain America's words, everyone's attention inevitably turned to the first option.

"Let's put aside all the various scenarios in which the Flash might trip over, and analyze it purely from a technical standpoint, he also possesses lightning speed! If we're talking about who's most likely to trip the Flash, I think it has to be Superman!"

Of course, although it's not explicitly stated, there's actually an implicit premise here: the most likely scenario is that the Flash would trip at lightning speed.

Because if the Flash is tripped at "normal speed," all four options are equally "suspected"—any one could be a suspect, and none of them could be a suspect, making analysis impossible.

Bruce Wayne immediately clarified this point for everyone, because tripping at normal speed is basically impossible to analyze, so the following analysis will prioritize tripping at lightning speed.

After all the analysis is complete, let's look at the case of tripping at normal speed.

The possibility of tripping at lightning speed is not difficult to analyze, because to achieve this, one would obviously need to reach lightning speed.

Of the four people in the options, only Superman has lightning speed!

"No, haven't we all forgotten about another person? The Flash!"

However, just when everyone generally believed that Superman had the best chance of being elected, Tony Stark suddenly spoke up and raised an objection.

"The Flash?"

The first reaction of everyone present was that this was absurd. They were not children anymore. How could a person trip over themselves?

What's more, he's a superhero.

While the Flash certainly meets the requirement of lightning speed, the answer is definitely not the Flash.

"A person tripping over themselves? Stark, that sounds like a joke!" Thor couldn't help but laugh out loud first; such a thing was simply impossible.

"Trip yourself up; that should only happen in infancy, right?" Diana chuckled, her lips pursed.

"Is it possible that...?" Bruce Wayne pondered for a moment, then offered this conjecture: "The Flash was injured, so he was stumbling and unsteady on his feet, which is why he tripped and fell?"

This possibility cannot be ruled out, but everyone agrees that it is not very likely.

The Flash possesses unparalleled speed; what kind of enemy could possibly harm him?

In short, if we were to compare and choose between The Flash and Superman, Superman would undoubtedly win.

"So, if the Flash trips while in his lightning form, the answer is Superman?" Thor summarized everyone's analysis.

He felt the answer was basically certain.

According to the general principle, if a question can be divided into several cases, some of which cannot be analyzed, but one of which can be analyzed, the answer is usually based on the answer of the case that can be analyzed.

This question perfectly fits this point.

Because the situation where the Flash was tripped at "normal speed" is simply impossible to analyze.

"I don't think the answer to this question is Superman!" But Captain America seemed to remember something and suddenly said, "Superman can be ruled out. Does everyone remember the footage of the Justice League discussing resurrecting Superman?"

After Captain America's reminder, many people in the audience realized what was going on.

More precisely, everyone except Thor realized what was happening.

“That’s right, Superman can definitely be ruled out!” Clark Kent immediately chimed in. “The Justice League had already fought Steppenwolf before Superman was resurrected!”

The main reason everyone resurrected Superman was to deal with Steppenwolf!

Because even the entire Justice League combined couldn't defeat Steppenwolf, Wonder Woman Diana even admitted that she had never seen an enemy as strong as Steppenwolf.

At that moment, the other Justice League members immediately thought of one person: Superman.

Clearly, before resurrecting Superman, everyone in the Justice League had already fought Steppenwolf and knew firsthand how powerful he was.

"A little."

Captain America raised a question: "Through that footage, we can confirm that the other members of the Justice League fought Steppenwolf, but what we can't confirm is that the Justice League came together to fight Steppenwolf."

"This question is about the Justice League's first time assembling to fight Steppenwolf, isn't it?"

Captain America's words hit the nail on the head: fighting together and fighting separately are completely different situations.

"We've all seen the footage of Superman versus the Justice League."

Tony Stark, however, had a different opinion: "If Steppenwolf is really as powerful as Superman, it means that every member of the Justice League is far from being his match."

"So I think that battle back then was when the Justice League came together to fight Steppenwolf."

"For so many proud and arrogant superheroes to come up with the idea of ​​resurrecting Superman, I think it must have been a last resort for them. They must have tried to concentrate all their forces to fight Steppenwolf."

Although there was no concrete evidence for Tony Stark's inference, the people present were quite convinced by it.

Putting themselves in others' shoes, they reasoned that they wouldn't have chosen such an extreme method as resurrecting Superman if they hadn't tried everything else.

Therefore, Tony Stark's reasoning does have some merit.

But... it's still the same problem. While there's some truth to it, the reasoning isn't strong enough to eliminate Superman as an option.

After all, it's really unknown whether the Justice League actually came together to fight Steppenwolf before.

This needs further discussion.

“Let’s take another look at the options of Diana and Arthur Curry,” Diana suggested from the side.

There's basically no controversy about these two options, since they're too slow and technically unlikely to trip up the Flash.

The situation where The Flash trips at "lightning speed" is rather troublesome, because none of the options are very likely.

Then everyone did a simple analysis of the situation of being tripped at "normal speed" and found that this situation was impossible to analyze.

The answer to this question really depends on the situation at lightning speed.

"The key question is whether the Justice League actually fought Steppenwolf as a united front last time," Thor shrugged.

This question is indeed crucial, as it will directly determine the answer to this question.

If everyone believes the Justice League has already assembled, this question needs further discussion; if they believe it hasn't, the answer is most likely Superman.

Unfortunately, most people believe that it is more likely that the group has already assembled.

If that's the case...
