Chapter 981 Giant Plant (7) Psychic Pirate

Infighting on the battlefield is a big taboo, let alone direct physical combat.

Although Superboy and Robin have very different personalities, they usually talk and laugh when they communicate and have never had any disputes. As for the matter of Harpy, the Young Justice League had already discussed it clearly after the funeral.

Although Robin was the one who gave the order, everyone knew that each of them was responsible for this matter. Robin only gave the order, and it was all of them who made the decision.

But now Robin and Superboy not only had a quarrel over this matter, but it also escalated to the point of fighting in front of the enemy. This is too strange.

The Martian girl flying in the sky saw the whole process. Normally, a person's anger accumulates over a period of time, but there was no sign of Superboy's outburst.

His expression was calm one second and turned into anger the next, which was not consistent with the emotional changes of a normal person. The Martian girl thought that someone was definitely behind this.

This was just like the last time they were in Vialiya, when Superboy lost his memory due to mental shock and went crazy, but there was still a difference. That time Superboy lost his mind, but this time he could still communicate.

Oh right! Superboy had a similar experience at the amusement park before, where he became extremely angry even though he was able to communicate.

Although their investigation could not continue due to the destruction of the amusement park, during the subsequent review, Robin still gave a guess based on the information provided by Superboy.

Robin felt that he was attacked by a psychic, and a psychic of a special kind. Unlike the Brain Demon and the Martian, whose psychic abilities could be used in many aspects, his was a relatively single kind.

Otherwise, when directly controlling Superboy's mind is obviously a better option, why would the attacker choose this emotion-oriented type? The most likely possibility is that he can't do it.

Based on this reasoning, Robin gave a suspect, that is the Mind Pirate.

The Mind Pirate's abilities perfectly match all the characteristics of a criminal. The Medusa Mask he possesses happens to have the ability to guide and disrupt other people's emotions. The current situation seems very much like the Mind Pirate is causing trouble.

It seems that the Joker and his men have hidden their men.

...

"Huh huh huh~"

In the bushes where Count Vertigo was hiding, the strangely dressed Mind Pirate was standing beside him, humming an incomprehensible tune while using his abilities.

"It's a good thing those guys asked me to come, otherwise I really don't know how you would deal with these brats."

Count Vertigo frowned slightly when he heard this. The tone of the Mind Pirate clearly showed that he looked down on them. It was as if they couldn't do anything without him. He really thought of himself as the core.

The person in charge said that he was the only unimportant person in this mission.

First of all, Poison Ivy, Extremis, Wotan, and Atomic Skull, these four people are the key to the giant plants' actions. Without them, the mission cannot be carried out.

Then there are Black Adam and the Joker, one is the guarantee of combat effectiveness, the other is the guarantee of attracting the attention of the Justice League, and they are also indispensable.

As for the Count of Dizziness, who seems to have a similar function to the Psychic Pirate, he is also the most critical key to the entire operation because he is the one who is responsible for matchmaking in this matter.

It was his identity that allowed him to connect with the Illuminati; otherwise, this group wouldn't even be formed. The Psychic Pirate himself was an insignificant figure, thrown in as a pure thug; it didn't matter whether they had him or not.

But the Mind Pirate now looked like he was indispensable, which made Count Vertigo unable to remain angry.

However, his good manners allowed Count Dizziness to suppress his anger. For the sake of his own plans, he decided to tolerate this arrogant guy for the time being.

What's more, there is no need for him to take action at all. The brainless Mind Pirate has been looking for trouble with the Joker, and the stingy guy will definitely take revenge.

For example, now, no one knows where the Joker has gone. Based on Count Vertigo's understanding of the Joker, this guy is definitely planning something.

But all this has nothing to do with Count Vertigo. The task given to them by the Illuminati is to attract the attention of the Justice League, and now they have completed more than half of it.

The other half is to escape. When the Justice League gets rid of all the plants and comes to trouble them, this group of people will need to escape to prolong the time of attracting the Justice League.

The Illuminati seemed to be plotting some big conspiracy, and they needed these guys to attract the attention of the Justice League for a long time, but Count Vertigo didn't want to delve into what the Illuminati wanted to do specifically.

As a nobleman and a villain who has been deeply involved in the underground world for so long, Count Vertigo knows one thing: don't try to explore the secrets of your peers when there is a huge gap in strength between them.

After all, his peers are not the superheroes of the Justice League, and they will not give them a second chance.

Have you ever seen a super criminal dragging another super criminal to the police station to surrender?
"Where's the Joker?" The Mind Pirate had apparently noticed someone missing from their side. "Where has this guy been slacking off again?"

Count Dizzy did not respond, not only because he did not want to pay attention to the other party, but also because he was afraid that the clown was eavesdropping, and it would be bad if he said something that would make the other party hold a grudge.

The Joker is a notorious piece of shit. Once you get stuck with him, nothing good will happen. It's better to keep out of trouble.

"Forget it." The Psychic Pirate didn't care when his companion ignored him. "I don't need him anyway. Let's deal with these little brats first."

With that said the Psychic Pirate strengthened the output of his abilities, expanding them from just Superboy and Robin to the entire Young Justice team.

...

"Ok?"

The Martian girl frowned, she found that something had entered her brain and was trying to change her spirit.

Recently she has also started to learn from Habby. Habby has helped them a lot twice by setting up mental protection in his brain. Now that the other party is gone, the Martian girl decided to take this position herself.

Now it has indeed been effective. She realized something was wrong the moment she was attacked mentally, and she also set up defenses to prevent herself from being affected.

"It's just as I thought." The Martian girl raised her lips slightly. Now that the opponent had revealed his true intentions, everything would be simple. All they had to do was defeat him.

The Martian girl closed her eyes, and when she opened them again, a mental shock invisible to the naked eye surged into the brains of everyone in the Young Justice League, instantly destroying the seeds planted by the Mind Pirate.
