Phantom Kid in the World of American Comics

Chapter 205: Bane VS Black Mask (Fight)

“No matter what happens, don’t move easily! Everyone, keep watching the truck for me!” 

In the underground laboratory where the nuclear bomb was hidden, Talia ordered the four shadow warriors in front of her. 

These few shadow warriors surrounded the truck. 

This truck is Phantom Kid’s target. 

The laboratory looked like a mess. 

The design of the passage was not for trucks to go through, but for people to walk on. 

With a total of hundreds of steps, the truck could be said to have crashed into everything along the way.

It destroyed several instruments and made a mess of the place.

It is worth mentioning that the driver was still sitting in his seat… but he was already dead. 

It didn’t take much thinking to figure out that the Riddler had killed him, to avoid any possibility of leaking information.

The result of this is that, in addition to the chaotic scene in the laboratory, all that remained was the strong stench that permeated the air…

Talia was tempted to ask the Riddler, “You kill people, but can’t dispose of their corpses?”

Could it be that this corpse also hides some riddles or some mechanism? 

The smell was only barely acceptable when the two shadow warriors moved the body into the special room at the far end of the lab and locked the door behind them.

At this moment, the passage from the ground has been re-closed. 

At the same time, even the mechanism has been replaced, and the way of moving the statue before is no longer effective. 

If one were to ask who in Bane’s group has such a skill, the answer would naturally be the Riddler. 

The Riddler was furious upon learning that Phantom Kid had solved the series of riddles he had carefully set up. 

He couldn’t accept that anyone in the world other than Batman could solve his riddles. 

As a result, the Riddler ran to the laboratory for the first time. It took him one night to redesign the riddle of the mechanism. 

The Riddler confidently assured Talia that it would be foolproof this time, and also asked for a single showdown with Phantom Kid. 

He doesn’t want others to interfere; he doesn’t even want to cooperate with Talia in protecting the truck. 

This is a clear challenge. 

What kind of impression would one have about this request?

Unexpectedly, beyond reason… 

Talia is well aware of Riddler’s extreme ego and honestly doesn’t think he can defeat Phantom Kid in such a state. 

But if she refused the Riddler, the consequences would be even more unpredictable; the Riddler was helping Bane but was never Bane’s subordinate to begin with.

So, under her compromise, the Riddler agreed to let the shadow warriors guard the laboratory. 

And the ground was left entirely to the Riddler; after all, if he was really capable of dealing with Kid, then this latter shouldn’t be able to get underneath the lab.

The existence of shadow warriors then is irrelevant. 

On the other side, in the Westward Bridge. 

The war between Bane and the Black Mask was on the verge of breaking out.

When the two sides faced each other, there was no questioning or chatting before the war. 

The moment the target appeared in front of their eyes, the charge began.

The bridge, which is 30 meters wide and 600 meters long, was full of gangs fighting. 

Setting the battlefield on a bridge is actually bad for both sides. 

The too-narrow environment makes most of their weapons useless. 

It’s too easy to accidentally injure one’s own people.

Heavy firepower can not be used casually. 

What’s worse is that both sides are already on the bridge, so they can’t negotiate to change the battlefield; it is definitely not possible. 

The vast majority of them threw away their guns and took their knives instead.

Anyway, it is also an old skill, and cutting people is not much different from shooting. 

However, for Bain and Black Mask, the situation was a bit out of control.

It was originally intended to be a gun battle, but it turned out to be a melee war. 

It stands to reason that Bane and Black Mask did not set out at an agreed time, and both sides were planning a surprise attack. 

How could they have coincidentally appeared on the bridge at the same time? 

Both thought about it. 

Their thoughts are surprisingly consistent, and there must be a spy among their men! Moreover, this spy is probably not even working with the opposite side. 

Otherwise, they should have been ambushed, not have such a “fair” fight like this one. 

Who the hell leaked each other’s information and put them in the current situation? 

Is it the Penguin? Gordon? Or is it Phantom Kid? 

Each is a suspect, but only one seems to be the real culprit. 

For Bane, at least, he can rule out the Penguin’s name. 

The two sides have cooperated for a long time, and their vigilance against each other has become increasingly deepened, and Bane was most wary of the Penguin infiltrating his forces.

If Bane’s staff really had the Penguin’s spy among them, then Black Mask’s men could have easily got in. 

There was no need to get information from the Penguin at all.

Gordon’s suspicion could not be ruled out, but the GCPD had suffered from the same issue before; Hush disguised as Gordon and worked as a spy. 

It was unlikely for Bane to believe that Gordon had placed a spy by his side. 

The biggest suspect is undoubtedly Kid. 

It’s no surprise that his seamless disguise technique allows him to blend within every circumstance. It’s easy for him to swing between Bane and Black Mask’s forces. 

The motive is also there. Once Bane and Black Mask are at war, their battle will last for a long time without getting to use firearms, which will give him considerable time to steal the nuke. 

Moreover, in such a narrow environment on the bridge, it is difficult to even get out without defeating the opponent. 

The best part is that Black Mask is a persistent man. He will bite and hold on to his goals. He is very rigid. Even if Bane wants to leave, Black Mask won’t let him go. 

If Kid really planned everything, then his plan will undoubtedly bind Bane and Black Mask firmly here. 

With the intensification of the battle, the Penguin and Gordon won’t stand idly by, and it will only become more and more chaotic here, which is exactly what Kid desires.

But will the truth really develop as he thinks? 

Bane, who had initially figured out everything, smiled secretly in his heart. 

«Kid, your plan is really good, unfortunately, you got the most important point wrong from the beginning to the end…» 

Having figured this out, Bane no longer pondered deeply but focused his entire attention on the battlefield. 

It was easy to see from Black Mask’s actions that he had already had the intention of going to war with the League of Shadows. Bane could hardly contain the bubbling anger in his heart.

Bane’s muscles twitched all over his body and crashed straight into the area where Black Mask’s men were most numerous.

As a gang leader, the biggest difference between him and Black Mask was his own fighting prowess.

Of course, that’s if you neglect the fact that Black Mask’s marksmanship was very close to that of Deadshot…
