Bab 58: Chapter 59: Flowing Back to the Sea

**Disaster struck abruptly.**

People were jolted from their sleep by a loud rumble, like the sky itself had split open. In the next moment, Gotham's dam wall shattered. Tons of water surged violently into the city, waves crashing with unstoppable force against buildings and streets, churning up massive swells like a monstrous sea storm.

"The subway entrances are flooded!"

This was a cry from the subway control center.

"The pumping system isn't responding, and the pressure reduction system—electricity! We need power!"

But the power station was helpless. The workers were in utter chaos, running around like ants on a hot stove, but none of the machines were functioning. Every screen in front of them was dominated by a striking purple and green image: a large question mark at the center of the display.

"Chief, it's that lunatic Riddler!" someone shouted desperately. "He's hijacked all our machines! We can't—"

Inside the church, the priest raised the cross on his chest, closed his eyes, and began to mutter a prayer.

"God, forgive our sins…"

Batman ascended to a rooftop with his grappling hook. He saw the floodwaters sweeping through the streets near the coastline, carrying away cars, stalls, and sidewalks. From his high vantage point, they looked like tiny leaves swirling in a maelstrom.

Windows were shattered by the force of the water, which poured into the interiors of buildings like an invading beast. Streetlights, signposts, and trees were uprooted. The sounds of collisions and collapses echoed one after another.

"Young master? Are you still there!?"

Alfred's voice came through the earpiece.

At that moment, Batman had just rescued two trapped citizens from an enclosed building using his grappling hook. He crouched atop a water spout, staring down at the torrent ravaging the city streets below. A light rain began to fall from the sky, pattering onto his cape and mask.

"This is my fault, Alfred."

He looked down at the water as it tore through the coastal streets like a deranged beast.

"I caught Nigma, but I didn't stop him. I didn't expect him to go this far. I miscalculated. This shouldn't have—

What the hell!?"

Right in the middle of his sentence.

All of a sudden, a blinding white light burst forth, piercing the clouds. A massive figure, clad in red and silver, appeared out of nowhere above the coastal area being inundated by the flood.

The brilliance was so intense that Batman had to raise his arm to shield his eyes, his cape flapping wildly in the ferocious wind.

When he finally focused, his pupils contracted under the mask.

It was that being known as "Ultraman."

But what was he doing here now?

Many others had also noticed the phenomenon. After all, it was difficult to ignore a fifty-meter-tall giant appearing amidst blinding light above a flooding city, even in the midst of a crisis as dire as this.

The people of Gotham had little time to spare, however; everyone was struggling for survival. There was no time to ponder the details.

Batman narrowed his eyes, observing closely.

What is he going to do?

In the next instant, he saw the giant cross his arms in front of his chest, clenching his fists tightly.

It almost seemed as though the entire sky flickered for a moment.

It was as if a bolt of lightning had streaked across the heavens, making the whole world flash in that giant's presence.

The giant raised his hand.

Towards the ocean, aiming at the wild surge of water that was ravaging the city like a stampede of wild horses.

It was as though he was issuing an unbreakable command.

Batman's pupils contracted again.

He was not someone who was easily taken aback. Regardless of the situation, no matter how dire, he always maintained his composure, thinking through his options and finding a way out, even in the most impossible of circumstances.

But in this moment, he couldn't deny it—he was indeed shocked.

A word he never thought he'd believe in appeared in his mind.

**A miracle.**

The wild, uncontrollable floodwaters—the scene of destruction and devastation—suddenly froze in place.

The raging waters halted in mid-air, flowing in a surreal manner suspended in the sky.

It was like watching a scene in a movie where the laws of physics had been rewritten.

The flood was abruptly cut off, and at that moment, more people began to look towards the breached dam.

They, too, were struck dumb, their expressions shifting into shock as they beheld this incomprehensible sight.

"Oh my God…"

Some citizens had already unconsciously fallen to their knees, looking up at the overwhelming presence of the red-and-silver giant holding back the floodwaters.

Even the priest walked out of the church, staring blankly at the giant who had single-handedly stopped the flood.

Suddenly, his cross didn't seem quite as impressive.

The **Ultra Barrier**, a psychokinetic ability derived from telekinesis.

Among those in the Land of Light, the instructor of the Ultra Dojo, *Jack*, was particularly skilled at this technique. He once displayed it in his series, using psychokinesis to form a barrier that pushed back a tsunami that nearly submerged Tokyo.

Long before his rebirth, when Shen You had first seen that scene on television as a child, he had been astounded, thinking that Ultraman was beyond powerful. After his rebirth, he had similarly mastered this technique after acquiring telekinetic abilities, though—of course—not to the same level.

While Jack was often known as the "Bracelet Rack," his achievements in telekinesis were among the best even in the Land of Light. And even for someone as strong as Jack, pushing back the tsunami had left him drained of energy, forcing him to disappear on the spot. Shen You's abilities, naturally, didn't measure up.

Fortunately, Gotham was not Tokyo, and the flood here was nowhere near the magnitude of the tsunami Jack faced. That tsunami had been caused by two monsters—one capable of generating earthquakes and the other tornadoes—combining their powers to create a cataclysmic disaster, which Jack single-handedly pushed back while also washing away the two monsters.

By comparison, the current situation was merely the result of a deranged madman using bombs to breach a critical point in the dam wall.

For Shen You, dealing with this flood was literally a matter of "small potatoes"—quite literally.

With a change in hand gesture, he raised both arms high. Telekinesis surged once again.

The next moment, countless eyes focused on the shore saw an even more astonishing scene unfold.

The water suspended in mid-air, along with the countless splashes, began to reverse course at the giant's command—

**Flowing back into the sea!**

It was as if some great, higher-dimensional being had pressed the rewind button on this disaster.

The rampaging floodwaters suddenly surged back. With a speed far greater than when they arrived, they rushed backward like a fleeing army, defeated and routed by an insurmountable barrier.

The people at the scene were saved. Soaked and drenched citizens emerged onto the streets, families embracing each other tightly, fathers lifting their children, couples holding each other close. All their gazes were united, fixed on the immense figure in the sky.

It was like the ancient Israelites witnessing the parting of the Red Sea before Moses.

The storm abated, the rain subsided, and the raging sea calmed once more.

The giant lowered his hands, his form gradually becoming transparent, until he vanished completely.

It was as if the entire scene had been an epic dream.
