347. Batman’s Fury Against Everyone.
"Bruce!"
Clark was the first to exclaim, straightening up as if he was about to rush forward. However, Batman's next move froze him in place.
"I'd suggest you stay right where you are, Clark."
Batman calmly pulled a kryptonite ring from his suit. Even with the distance between them, the sight of the glowing green stone caused Clark to feel a wave of weakness, as though something was draining his strength.
Studying Superman with a cold gaze, Batman let out a quiet scoff, a small smirk tugging at his mouth.
"You actually managed to break free from the liquid kryptonite. That's incredible. I suppose you have that friend from the other world to thank for that."
"How do you know!?" Clark couldn't help but speak out, but he quickly reminded himself that this was Batman, now seated on the Mobius Chair and with access to Apokolips' vast resources. Figuring it out wouldn't have been difficult for him.
"Did you really think your little schemes would escape me and my great master's attention? And that traitor, Luthor, who helped you get here—don't worry. My master has already gone to Earth. Soon, they'll be just like you. This time, no more chances."
Batman's tone was cold, but everyone could hear the heavy sarcasm and mockery in it.
"Bruce, this isn't you. Break free from Darkseid's control—resist him. You have the strongest willpower of anyone I know. Wake up!" Clark looked sincerely into Batman's eyes.
But Batman was unmoved. He didn't even spare Clark a glance, instead shifting his gaze toward the other three young men.
"Looks like it's time to skip the talk and try something more persuasive. Don't anyone dare get in my way."
Seeing Batman's gaze on him, Jason's face broke into a grin under the Red Hood mask. He had been waiting for this moment for a long time.
"I always knew Clark would come back—same as always. But I'm honestly surprised you'd dare to stand in front of me, Jason," Batman said, staring at him with an icy expression.
"How funny—tables have turned, haven't they, Bruce? Now tell me, who's really on the wrong side of justice?" Jason sneered as he drew his baton, taking slow steps toward Batman.
"Oh, so death didn't teach you a thing? You're still just that little tire thief in my eyes. Admit it—compared to Dick, you'll always be a failure, unworthy of the title Robin."
"Enough! Father, you won't turn us against each other," Damian snapped.
"Huh, how dare you call me that?" Batman sneered.
"Your mother drugged me to force herself to conceive you, then manipulated me to take care of you, breaking my spirit. You were never my son. You're nothing but a burden."
"You…" Damian's breathing grew labored.
"Damian, stay calm. It's Bruce's plan—don't fall for it," Dick said, clapping a hand on Damian's shoulder to keep him grounded.
"Dick… always so soft."
Batman shifted his gaze to Nightwing, Dick Grayson.
"You were once my greatest student, but you betrayed me. How did it feel to watch the Teen Titans die right in front of you? Though, I suppose it didn't faze you—you've always been such a weak failure."
"…"
Dick's fists clenched. He knew Batman better than anyone and could predict what he was about to say next, but he still spoke in a trembling voice.
"Bruce, you'd better think carefully before you speak."
However, Batman clearly didn't take Dick's threat seriously. Without any hesitation, he continued speaking.
"Even if it means watching your parents die right before you."
Dick's blood pressure spiked, veins bulging on his forehead as he gritted his teeth and spoke.
"Remember… you forced me into this."
With that, Dick pulled out his weapon and joined Damian and Jason, standing together.
"Well done, Bruce."
Clark shook his head.
"You've managed to anger everyone here. Is this what you wanted?"
Batman remained unfazed. Standing up, he jumped down from the Mobius Chair and spoke each word slowly and deliberately.
"My only goal is to hold all of you here until my great master, Darkseid, wipes out your last hope. After that, he'll be more than happy to come and pass judgment on you."
"Forget Darkseid—I'm ready to pass judgment on you myself, right now," Jason could no longer hold himself back. He stepped forward, leading the charge.
Behind him, Damian and Dick joined in, attacking Batman from three different directions.
Seeing this, Batman sneered. "Mobius Chair, activate Red Sun mode and target the Kryptonian. These three… leave them for me to handle."
As soon as he spoke, the Mobius Chair responded, emitting a burst of red light aimed directly at Clark.
Sensing the threat, Clark couldn't just stand there. He knew the Mobius Chair was targeting him, so he immediately took off, flying into the sky to draw it away from Batman's battlefield.
Meanwhile, Batman's words weighed heavily on Clark's mind. He couldn't bear to imagine what might happen if Darkseid really did arrive on Earth. Would anyone left on Earth even be able to stand against him?
"Oh, Lois…"
Clark murmured with a sigh.
"Please, Alex… we're counting on you."
-------------------------
The heroes had now gathered together, and through their combined efforts, they'd finally cleared out the defenses of LexCorp Tower, assembling near the top-floor blast corridor.
"Is everyone alright?" Lois asked, looking around at the dirt-streaked group.
"King Shark is the strongest!" Before anyone else could respond, King Shark opened his massive jaws, revealing his kryptonite-studded teeth, grinning widely.
Lois grimaced slightly at the sight and smell of blood in King Shark's mouth but pressed on.
"According to remote monitoring, a horde of Doomsday-like monsters is heading our way. To ensure Clark and the others can carry out their plan, we have to hold this position; otherwise, none of them will have a chance to return… wait, where's Captain Boomerang?"
"He sacrificed himself to cover our retreat," Cheetah explained briefly.
Lois sighed. She understood that war always involved sacrifice, and she knew this wasn't the time for mourning.
A short distance away, Kara stood beside Alex, her eyes filled with concern.
"Those Paradooms aren't the real threat, are they?"
Alex gave a weary smile and asked in return, "You sensed it too?"
Kara nodded. "I feel a strange unease, something I've never felt before."
Alex shook his head lightly and said quietly,
"That's Darkseid."
