Chapter 594 All of this was within your, my, and his plan.
Chapter 594 All of this was part of your, my, and his plan. Ah, I understand! Hahaha!
"Although this is all part of my plan, I won't leave so easily..."
In the Batman Who Laughs universe of the Dark Multiverse, the Batman Who Laughs, who has already escaped, stands before a pool of bubbling clown viruses.
He now needs a new plan, one that can help him continue to weaken Batman Dragon. He had tried to deceive him before, but the other party not only did not believe him, but also did the exact opposite. When he saw him in person, the other party attacked him desperately as if he had seen a mortal enemy. All of this was inconsistent with the maximum possibility that Batman Laugh had predicted. But even so, Batman Laugh had made a contingency plan for the worst-case scenario.
Batman: Dragon needs the help of all the sorcerers in this universe to break the Black Death Emperor's shroud over that crucial Dark Multiverse... the reflection of the Darkest Night in the main universe within the Dark Multiverse.
Batman Dragon needs to obtain the white light of existence from that universe. With that existence, which is likely the strongest in the Dark Multiverse, it will be able to obtain the key to fight the Black Death. Whether it continues to collect more existences from other universes using the power of that universe's existence as a guide, or directly uses some other method to strengthen the existence, none of this will benefit the Batman Who Laughs.
Batman, wielding the power of the White Lantern, is far too troublesome for the Black Death, who is attempting to invade his universe. Their battle is more likely to turn into a simple skirmish, rather than a pyrrhic victory for one side in a deadly struggle.
For the Batman Who Laughs, the ideal scenario is that Batman can't find the White Lantern energy, so he's forced to return to his own universe and fight the Black Death to the death.
Ultimately, regardless of whether Batman Dragon or Black Death wins, it will be a Pyrrhic victory. This will directly result in Black Death being unable to help the Emperor Joker escape the time loop, while Batman Dragon will either die or be seriously injured. This is exactly the result that The Laughing Man wants.
The Laughing Bat walked to the edge of the clown's venom pool and looked down at the lush green water.
Among the several plans he is currently working on is a contingency plan for what to do if he is killed in some extreme circumstances.
He planned to find a way to possess another body and gain a stronger one.
(Note: Yes, this is exactly what the Batman Who Laughs did to the Manhattan Batman during Death Metal! He became the Darkest Knight!)
But the plan repeatedly failed, and the Batman Who Laughs had to ensure that this method of changing bodies was a true replacement of the body, rather than cloning his own memories and personality and stuffing them into another body.
This problem is the key reason why this research has been unable to produce results for so long.
However, this plan also brought the Batman Who Laughs some byproducts, some temporary measures that allowed him to deal with the immediate problems.
The Batman Who Laughs manipulated a tall, strong man to crawl out of the pool of clown viruses before him. He was Bruce Wayne from a dark multiverse. In that universe, Bruce Wayne, the original Nightwing Dick Grayson, and the original second Robin Jason Todd were all members of the Court of Owls.
(Note: Bruce Wayne as the Owl Claw version did indeed appear in the comics.)
The entire bat family has joined the Court of Owls. Therefore, Bruce even possesses amber gold, one of the six metals within him.
The Court of Owls was subservient to Barbatos, so when the Batman Who Laughs went to that universe and killed the leader of the Court of Owls, Bruce Wayne of that universe even knelt down and kissed the soil at the Batman Who Laughs' feet after discovering that the Batman Who Laughs was a lackey of his master's master.
Of course, this did not change the fact that the Batman Who Laughs would capture him alive and throw him into the Joker's venom pool. The only thing that left a deep impression on the Batman Who Laughs was that this Bruce had been brainwashed by the Court of Owls. When the Batman Who Laughs made him jump into the pool, he did not hesitate at all, which was extremely boring.
The Batman Who Laughs had originally planned to temporarily transfer his consciousness into Batman's body so that he could temporarily control the body with amber gold. But at the last minute, he suddenly changed his mind. He snapped his fingers twice, and then Jason Todd from the Claws of the Bruce Cosmos universe crawled out of the Joker virus pool.
If Jason Todd in that universe was also injected with a sufficient amount of amber gold by the Court of Owls, then what difference does it make to the Batman Who Laughs whether it's Bruce or Jason? Conversely, if Batman eventually discovers that the mask covering the body he's controlling is Jason's face, it's bound to be a joke, right?
Soon, when Jason Todd, controlled by the Bat of Laughter, was led like a puppet to a machine, he briefly regained consciousness and let out a terrified scream. But the scream quickly turned into hysterical laughter amidst the hum of the machine...
No one heard it anymore.
……
……
……
At this moment, the Lantern Horrors formed their own faction, with Chen Tao standing with Queen Hecate, while Gaia Terra and Omac Blue Beetle were subtly standing together.
"Let me make this clear first, Batman Dragon claimed he was willing to share the entire multiverse with me, but now it seems I don't need to share it with him anymore." Earth Gaia Terra was a young girl.
In the main universe, in the storyline of "Judas Covenant", Terra, the Stone Woman who is Deathstroke's spy, is constantly torn between her companions and Deathstroke's opposing sides. Her love for Beast Boy (if it really exists) and everything that Deathstroke has instilled in her only make this dilemma even more difficult.
Ultimately, Terra, the earthen woman of the main universe, ended this painful choice with her death. It was a tragedy that was unforgettable for everyone on the Teen Titans, especially for Beast Boy.
But in the reflection of the Dark Multiverse, thanks to the persuasion of the original Robin Dick Grayson, Terra the Stone Woman no longer blindly follows Deathstroke—do you think she would betray the evil villain and then happily throw herself into the arms of her righteous allies?
This is the Dark Multiverse. Terra, the Stone Woman who killed Deathstroke, completely unleashed the darkness within her. She used Deathstroke's potion to enhance herself, causing her superpowers to grow terrifyingly. She single-handedly destroyed her own universe, and the last person she killed was Beast Boy.
So if we have to say something, maybe Terra still has some feelings for Beast Boy?
But none of that matters anymore.
"Batman Dragon didn't promise me anything," O'Malley Blue Beetle said. "My only goal is to spread the safety and goodness I bring throughout the entire Light Multiverse."
This blue beetle is more powerful than the earth, Gaia Terra. He is a reflection of the Infinite Crisis of the Dark Multiverse—yes, Superman Supreme.
O'McBlue Beetle once killed Superman Supreme in his universe, a fact that even Mobius, the mortal who had previously invaded Chen Tao's universe, had heard of—the "incredibly weak Superman Supreme" he had mentioned before.
"Come on..." Chen Tao thought silently, waiting for the Lantern Horror to launch the first attack. The opponent's goal was complete destruction, and in such a standoff, he would definitely be the first person to lose his composure.
Once the Lantern Horror launches an attack, he can rush in and redirect the attack towards Omaclan Beetle and Earth Terra. Then he can activate his hidden trump card within Queen Hecate, and then…
Immediately afterwards, he felt a hand suddenly grab his back. He turned around and saw a dangerous glint in Queen Hecate's eyes, which were glowing red.
Chen Tao remained silent for a while.
"When exactly did you reach an agreement with Batman Dragon?" Even at this point, he was still pretending to be the Batman Who Laughs.
Then he saw a blue portal open in the distance, and the Batman Who Laughs clapped his hands lightly, his face a serious, normal Batman expression, as he slowly walked out.
"A truly brilliant reaction; you almost killed me just now. But you should have expected this..."
Beside the Batman Who Laughs, the Lantern Horror, who had just been glaring menacingly at everyone and threatening death at everyone equally, silently turned his head and looked at Chen Tao.
The Laughing Bat turned to the Omac Blue Beetle and Earth Terra beside him and said, "Don't worry, everything is going according to plan."
Then he turned to look at Batman.
"You thought you could persuade Queen Hecate and that I couldn't make the Lantern Frighten obey," he said. "But now, you're facing an attack from four people. And Queen Hecate has even placed her hand on your groin."
Omac Blue Beetle and Terra: "!!!??"
When did Batman: Dragon manage to do something like that?
"Oh, is this Empress Hecate you're talking about the one I've already taken control of?"
Then they heard the Batman Who Laughs let out two strange laughs. Immediately afterward, Queen Hecate behind him suddenly rolled her eyes back, a large amount of dark matter energy rose from her body, and she lowered her hands, seemingly having completely lost her will, and stood behind the Batman Who Laughs.
"Oh, so this Empress Hecate you're talking about, whom you're controlling, is the one controlled by Hecate who has already reached an agreement with me?"
From this moment on, the nature of the battle changed. Consciousness gradually blurred, but the objective gradually became clear.
As Batman Dragon spoke, Queen Hecate convulsed again, followed by a burst of purple light. The enraged face of the goddess Hecate faintly appeared on her face, and she grabbed Chen Tao's chest again.
"Oh, the Hecate you're talking about who reached an agreement is the one who thought she wouldn't be under my control unless Wonder Woman absorbed my power?"
The phantom of Hecate that had appeared on Empress Hecate suddenly looked distressed, and a large amount of black energy exploded on his body like fireworks.
She was forced to release her hand that was stuck in Batman's groin.
Terra and Omac Blue Beetle, standing nearby, were somewhat bewildered by the rapid changes in their identities.
"So... so who should we attack?"
There was a slight commotion on their end, but the matryoshka doll game on the other end was still going on.
"Oh, is this Hecate you're talking about, the one you've been controlling, the one I've already prepared a way to help temporarily break free from your control?"
With a pop, the black mist was temporarily dispelled by the magical ray shot from the Laughing Bat's hand, and the menacing Hecate once again stretched out its claws towards Chen Tao.
The Batman Who Laughs, disguised as Batman Dragon, spoke:
"You think you've won? Quite the opposite, you've overlooked the most important enemy: I still have the Lantern Horror..."
"Oh, is this 'Ghostly Lantern' you're talking about the one who's already made a deal with me?"
McBlue Beetle and Terra are numb.
The two looked at each other, then saw the Lantern Horror draw his flaming sword again and point it at his enemy.
"?"
The other party's sudden, seemingly childish change of attitude almost stunned Terra. The Omac Blue Beetle beside it kept displaying data in its eyes: "Calculating, but there are too few variables to make a judgment."
In any case, the nested doll situation is now over. It seems that both the Lantern Horror and Queen Hecate ultimately help Batman Dragon, and since they are employed by him, the Batman Who Laughs will be the final target…
"Hahahahaha..." Then Terra heard the Batman Who Laughs chuckle again, suddenly flipping his head back into normal Batman and pointing: "Actually, I am Batman Dragon."
"He is the Bat Who Laughs!"
"????"
"Wait, how did he just change his face like that?" Terra felt a jolt in her cerebellum. She turned to look at Omac Blue Beetle: "Did you save the recording?"
"Alright, alright..." Before Ommac Blue Beetle could answer Emperor Terra's question, the Batman Who Laughs chuckled three more times: "At this point, there's no point in pretending!" Then he suddenly flipped himself from the normal Batman into the laughing Batman, and then flipped himself back from the laughing Batman to the normal Batman.
The movements were so smooth and fluid, almost as fast as a Sichuan opera face-changing act.
"Actually, I am Batman Dragon. I disguise myself as the Maniac Laughing Dragon, and I wear three layers of disguise. That's why you failed, hahahahahaha!"
Within a short period of time, the Laughing Bat suddenly prepared two identities. This easy change directly negated the impact of Chen Tao's previous identity change, completely rendering the identity change card useless.
"Good, good, good, this time we've met a real opponent." Chen Tao exclaimed in amazement, thinking the same thing to himself as the Laughing Bat.
In the blink of an eye, Chen Tao and the Laughing Bat had nested each other's dolls five or six times, and suddenly felt a sense of mutual appreciation.
Only Blue Beetle and Terra remained, completely bewildered in the wind.
