Chapter 711 Justice League vs. Justice Alliance
Chen Tao is actually facing a choice.
For example, he didn't actually have any evidence to prove that Barbatos was right.
For example, his suspicions were not actually based on anything.
Barbatos is under control → The World Forger, who currently manipulates other people's bodies, is no match for him → Chen Tao is also no match for him → Go to the main universe to get reinforcements.
It's a very clear logical chain, so what's there to doubt? What is there to doubt?
What is the reason?
"Because the solution to the predicament is too clear, it feels wrong and makes you suspicious."
But what if you have doubts?
It's not about you suddenly thinking, "I doubt I can do this," and then immediately changing your previously prepared plan, or even your last resort.
Any change to the plan requires careful consideration of the chain reaction and consequences that such action may bring.
Without the Justice League's superhuman strength from the main universe, who will deal with the now-raging Barbatos?
They certainly aren't Batman's parents.
And what about the World Forger? What is he going to do? Who can stop him? Who can save Parallax Morhal from him?
These are all problems, so it's not that Chen Tao didn't want to, but that he couldn't do it in a practical sense—he was truly at his wit's end.
Unless he uses more violent methods, but he doubts whether the already riddled-with-holes time-travel system can withstand it.
Okay, most likely not.
"...Trust me, Batman! Trust me..."
Alright, alright, I believe you, Lord Barbatos. But Chen Tao must come up with a way to ensure that someone will help him fight against the now-mad Barbatos and the World Forgers.
Chen Tao heard the World Forger's urging: "Don't be fooled, they've already taken control of Barbatos and made him talk to confuse you... When will the people from the main universe arrive? I really can't hold on much longer."
"They're coming soon."
Chen Tao's eyes flickered; he had made his decision.
As we all know, Superman is the center of the entire DC universe.
So what we need to do is very simple:
Remove the mother and keep the child...
Bah! Sacrifice the pawn to save the king.
……
……
……
On the bald head of the Alliance's Lex Luthor, a polite, gentlemanly, and somewhat incongruous smile appeared.
In the main universe, the Flash, Barry Allen, whispers to Victor Stone, who is next to him:
"My God, I feel like all the hairs on my body are standing on end, don't you think?"
Clearly, Cyborg is made entirely of steel except for his head, so he has no body hair.
He used to have lungs, but he had them removed during the Atlantis Throne incident.
(Note: The Atlantis Throne event occurred during the New 52 period.)
"So let me summarize what you've said. We are about to face a servant god (Barbatos) who is very likely the offspring (World Forger) of the demon god (Papetua), who is the creator of the entire universe. We need to defeat the controlled servant god and find a way to remove the evil thoughts from his body."
"You can't kill him," Superman Clark from the Alliance added. "I'm not sure if you have the ability to kill Barbatos, but even if you do, you can't do it, or you can't weaken him too much, otherwise the World Forge will be without a master. There's no one in the multiverse strong enough to replace Barbatos for the time being."
Then the Alliance Superman saw the Justice League from the main universe blinking.
"Uh...we never kill people."
"Uh...uh...uh..." Now it was the Alliance Superman's turn to be speechless.
"Alright, alien creatures don't count as human, but I'll consider your suggestion." The main universe Batman originally wanted to say aliens, but considering that Clark Kent (P-Super) was sitting next to him, although not the Clark he knew. (N-Super)
Batman continued, "But that's not what we need to know. We need to know about that creature called Barbatos—what are its weaknesses? How can it be defeated? Have you gathered any intelligence on it?"
He looked at Alliance Luther, who was in a leading position: "And, actually, there's something I've always been curious about."
"Although you claim to us that it is normal for the Dark Multiverse to differ from the Main Universe, in fact, I do not believe that I am the only one without an counterpart."
"Your Batman is the de facto controller of your team, isn't he? You should have some means of communicating with him, but you haven't told us..."
"Now, I need to talk to myself in a parallel universe."
The Batman of the main universe made the request, and Luthor and his crew naturally didn't object.
To Luthor and his team's surprise, the main universe Batman failed to communicate with the Batman they were fighting in the Dark Multiverse.
"The Metal Spirit's communication has been severed by some force... Wait, I think I need to..."
The main universe's Batman rested his chin on his hand, feeling that something was amiss.
In principle, he did not want his allies to participate in a battle they did not really understand, but it was also true that they could not abandon billions of lives.
"That's enough. Let's go."
Batman said.
He has prepared the best set of armor.
"If things change, we must retreat immediately," Batman warned his allies. "We must ensure our own safety before helping others."
After everything was settled, the main universe's Superman was the first to attempt to enter the portal.
But instead of passing through directly as everyone expected, he was blocked by a thin layer of energy.
"Uh... I think you know why."
He said to Lex Luthor of the Alliance, "Lex, solve this problem. Yes, that's right..."
The Superman from the main universe muttered to himself, "That's the feeling."
The Alliance's Luther simply obeyed. He obediently walked over and began inspecting the portal that was blocking Superman's way, without uttering a single sarcastic remark. This disgusting feeling gave Superman from the main universe goosebumps.
"Superman must stay."
After a lengthy investigation, Luther of the Alliance announced the results of his investigation: "I'm sorry, but this problem is not accidental, but rather a decision made by the leaders of the Justice League."
"Your Batman?"
"right."
"Your Justice League only has one leader, instead of making decisions together?"
Alliance Luther gave a strange look to Simon, the Green Lantern, who was asking the question beside him.
"Of course not. There can only be one leader. I mean, can the United States have two presidents at the same time?"
Green Lantern Simon was immediately confused.
"Ahem." The main universe's Superman quickly steered the conversation back to himself:
"What I mean is, I don't understand."
"I'm sorry, but Batman provided us with this intelligence, and it was his decision—our Batman. We were just following his orders."
"Wow, that's impressive, Bat. Execute his orders! In a darker version of a parallel universe, you are the King of the Justice League."
The Flash from the main universe nudged the expressionless Batman from the main universe next to him with his elbow.
Main universe Batman: ...
The Alliance Heroine spread her arms, temporarily blocking her way in front of her counterpart from the main universe. Meanwhile, the Alliance Superman placed his hand on the shoulder of the main universe Superman.
"So I need to know why the parallel universe version of myself would make this decision."
"This is what the main universe's Batman said."
"The Metal Spirit's communications have been cut off, Batman," Luthor said. "We can't communicate with our Batman, but he deliberately cut off Superman's access, so we understand his meaning. We will all stay and protect Superman to make sure he is not harmed."
"Ensure—Superman is unharmed?"
The main universe alliance could barely contain their strange expressions; to be honest, this was the biggest difference in the actions of their two versions of the Justice League.
The main universe heroine looked at the Justice League heroine who looked almost identical to her, blocking her way, and couldn't help but put her hand to her forehead. Then she reached out and forcefully pulled the Justice League Hall alloy seat, which was originally fixed to the ground, off the ground. She then twisted it into a pretzel with her bare hands and threw it aside with a bang.
"Are you sure Superman needs your protection?"
"You look much weaker than I do." The Superman from the main universe used his X-ray vision to examine his parallel universe counterpart: "Generally speaking..."
Then he felt Superman from a parallel universe reach out and pinch his shoulder.
"Okay, if you don't like it, I won't continue with the X-ray vision."
Then he really didn't continue with the perspective, and in this respect, they are moral exemplars.
Luther quickly realized that the Justice League of the main universe was different from them. They were not a group of executors who were good at carrying out the right orders. They were a group of decision-makers, and each of them was a terrifyingly strong decision-maker.
But Lex Luthor knew that Batman's orders must be based on the latest intelligence from the front lines, and if they allowed the Justice League to change Batman's orders, who knew what might happen.
The main universe's Wonder Woman wanted to bypass the Alliance Wonder Woman and enter the portal, but the Alliance Wonder Woman wouldn't let her go.
The atmosphere changed slightly.
"Hey, what's going on, everyone... I thought we were here to help you," Jessica, the female Green Lantern, said somewhat weakly.
"It's alright." Lex Luthor snapped his fingers. "Let them pass."
"What about Superman?"
"Let him go too. Then we'll go after him."
"Wait, this is completely different from what Batman meant to us..."
"I'm the one making decisions on the fly right now."
"Luther said."
Batman's unease grew stronger, but seeing the members of the Justice League, he listened to Luthor and made way for them, and they eventually passed directly through the portal.
Then, in the next moment.
Batman then discovers that all his teammates have vanished, and he and Lex Luthor are alone in an alternate dimension.
Batman's heart sank immediately.
"I knew it," he said to the other person.
"You're trying to separate us, to isolate Superman."
He said, "Maybe I can't stop you from doing this, but I can turn the process that separated us into a one-on-one one-on-one."
"I'm sorry." Luther was silent for a moment.
Yes, he had already come up with a plan. He intended to leave Superman alone on the spot and arrange things perfectly for them without their consent, which was almost a traditional skill of the Justice League.
But Luthor chose the wrong targets: Batman from the main universe, not his weak teammates from the Dark Multiverse. Batman saw through his plan. He couldn't change Luthor's entire operation of scattering them, but he interfered with his spatial teleportation with unknown abilities, turning the situation from leaving only Superman to assigning each of them a one-on-one opponent.
Luther began to regret his actions. He had made the habit of arranging for his teammates to apologize first, but he had repeatedly misjudged his own abilities and greatly underestimated the level of his opponents.
Although he used the technology of the Dark Multiverse to deliver a fatal blow to Batman and the Justice League of the main universe, Batman still managed to decipher his teleportation technology. While this did not ultimately change Superman's fate of being teleported away, it did alter his final outcome.
So he could only accept... accept the fact that he had made a slight mistake.
He told Batman, "Okay, I don't mean to belittle you, but I thought you didn't understand teleportation and that you were just using Darkseid's Boom Portal."
In another space, the main universe's Wonder Woman and the Alliance Wonder Woman stand face to face.
"I never imagined I'd be fighting you," said the female warrior from the main universe.
"Wait a minute." The Alliance heroine waved her hands repeatedly: "Diana, it's weird to call you that, but what I mean is we need to use our brains."
Then, the Alliance Heroine saw her counterpart in the main universe draw her sword and utter the most classic Amazonian declaration of war: "For the Amazons, in the name of Hera!"
The Alliance Heroine groaned, "God, we didn't need to do that."
"Unless you're willing to give it up," the main universe heroine said.
"...I'm a really aggressive person," the Alliance Heroine said.
In another alternate dimension, each member of the Justice Alliance also encountered their opponent.
The Flash vs. The Flash.
"Let me tell you a lightning-fast fact." The Alliance Flash saw the Flash from the main universe standing in front of him: "I can run faster than you think."
Aquaman vs. Aquaman.
"I've always had this feeling... like there's some kind of magic surrounding your face."
Cyborg vs. Martian Manhunter.
"This is exactly the type I'm not good at dealing with..." Cyborg looked at Martian Manhunter in front of him, but then he found the plugin Batman had left him in his program... a protective barrier specifically designed to counter telepaths.
One after another, one after another.
The members of the Justice League knew they had to persuade the members of the main universe not to see them as enemies...
But it's probably not that easy.
