"Hahahaha... Kill me?..... Hahahaha.. If you kill me she will come and then you all will die... I don't know where you came from to show such arrogance in my world." Batman who Laughs was laughing hearing John and others speak of his murder in such a casual manner. Though he was surprised that they were able to deduce that fact he wanted to die and then gain the power of Dr. Manhattan but it didn't matter.
He would never let anyone threaten him and treat him like Perpetua does. He had enough of her.
John and others didn't even care about the hysteric laugh of Batman who Laughs. Perpetua was strong for sure but the moment they could get the positive forces back and let everyone here remember their past then it would be game over for her.
Afterall, her power came from the dark forces and it would be easier for them to take her down. In the comics Batman who Laughs defeated her because he had a better pull on the forces of the multiverse then herself. She was defeated. Not killed.
And this time John would make sure that she wouldn't come back.
Batman went straight to Batman who Laughs and punched him with his Kryptonite strength. This broke the jaw and let Batman who Laughs lose his consciousness. DC Batman had his eyebrows creased seeing the body strength of his counterpart. He already felt that something was wrong with this guy and now he was sure.
"What have you done to your body?" DC Batman asked.
"I am half Kryptonite." Bruce replied.
"We can have family discussions later." Clark said as it was time to invade Castle Bat. The Batmans residing on the Castle Bat tended to work independently until Batman who Laughs came and ordered something. So even if they had lost their leader it wouldn't mean that it would be easier for them to invade Castle Bat.
"Invade the Castle Bat. And I will keep an eye on Perpetua. Diana, you need to work fast." John said. All nodded their heads and they got divided into teams. Seeing as a hassle Ichigo and Kenpachi chopped off the heads of the minions of Batman. There was no point in keeping these two alive.
DC Batman didn't have a good face when he saw the enemy's heads being chopped off but he didn't have the power to say anything. He didn't even understand what kind of people they were and at this point they needed to be allies.
Wally West volunteered to join Diana seeing Flash also going with DC Diana to bring out the Truth with her lasso. He could get his hands on a little bit of Speed Force in this way. Batman who Laughs was internally sweating seeing the two minions' heads chopped off, not because he cared about them but because of how easily they killed them.
Heroes of this world always had a bottom line but these people didn't have one. And that was terrifying!
On the Castle Bat at the top there were always 4 Guards defending the Castle at all times. Tony, Thor, Wolverine, Hyperion, Wanda, Yennefer, Pietro and Ciri would go on the top of the Castle and fight the 4 guardians.
The 4 guardians this time were the Drowned, Devastator, Red Death and the Dawnbreaker. So it was basically 4 Justice League members but on the bad side. This would be a tough fight as all the 4 members were very strong. Tony had already decided to use his Celestial Armor. After applying the Hank Pym technology on the armor he was able to shorten the height of the Celestial Armor to it's normal size so he would be able to use it freely.
Hank Pym didn't allow Ant man to join the universe but in exchange he decided to help the Avengers whenever necessary and the Avengers respected that decision. Ant man was still there but he didn't join the Avengers and Scott lived his own good life.
Superman would follow DC Batman along with the other Batman. They would have to fight against a Darksied Batman. Darksied itself was terrifying. Having him as a version of Batman was more terrifying so for this reason two Kryptonians were taken as measure. Of course Yamamoto, Kenpachi and Kyoroku had joined their team.
The other Captains would join the normal invasion that would take place at the Castle Bat.
And the other team which would follow DC Diana in search of the Truth would be escorted by Steve, Diana, Flash, Wally West and various other members. They also know Superboy might try to stop them so they too needed serious firepower. Superboy wasn't exactly as powerful as Superman but at the end he was still a Kryptonian. All the Kages had decided to join this team along with Sasuke.
Thus all the teams were ready to roll!
