weakness.
Everyone has weaknesses; there is no perfect being in this world.
But if we want to further deconstruct it...
A weakness is a flaw that you are aware of but cannot let go of.
Your weaknesses have made you who you are, shaped you, and made you who you are.
You can't let go of your flaws just as you can't let go of yourself.
"How dare you..."
Bruce Wayne knew that wisdom and composure were always his greatest strengths.
Therefore, he barely maintained his last shred of sanity. Those numerous Thomas Wayne and Martha Wayne who were summoned were all real people.
The Batman of the main universe knows Mudface; his abilities allow him to impersonate others on a DNA level, with no obvious weaknesses other than water.
However, this ability to transform still does not grant Clayface the abilities of the one being imitated—Clayface transforming into Superman will not grant him Superman's abilities.
Look at these freaks, Thomas and Martha!
The first pair of parents, now striding briskly toward Batman, are covered in plants.
They are still corpses, but the flowers and grasses take root in their flesh and blood, driving them to move.
Their combat power is practically zero, so they can only inflict psychological damage on Batman.
He saw his mother Martha's jawbone fall off, and then the plant Martha walked up to him and, in front of Batman, ripped off the pearl necklace from her neck.
The Batman of the main universe is at a loss.
He hadn't figured out how to deal with his plant-like parents who were attacking him.
But the other person had already walked up to him, and he no longer had time to think.
He knew that so many of his parents might not be his biological parents.
Lex Luthor, who came from the Dark Multiverse, found many of his parents' counterparts from parallel universes, but this was enough to damage his mind and emotions.
He raised his fist.
Batman knew that if he faltered, that was exactly what his enemies wanted.
He raised his fist.
With immense willpower and emotional struggle, he decided to defeat his parents, or rather, their identical corpses.
He was very sorry.
But he had to do it.
He knew he couldn't let his personal feelings control him from the enemy; that would be extremely irresponsible to his teammates.
He was really sorry.
Batman finally made his decision. He threw a punch at his parents, but just before that controlled punch knocked down the two plant-covered corpses—
A loud crash.
The plant-like parents collapsed right in front of Batman before the fist could even touch them, putting on a show of dying on the spot.
Before they fell, they deliberately made convulsive movements similar to those of someone shot. Some of the pearls that Martha had thrown earlier were pushed to Batman's feet by their falling motion.
"..." Batman stared blankly at his parents, who had collapsed before he could even exert any force.
Here they come, here they come! The second pair of Batman's parents have arrived. This pair of Batman's parents are not controlled by plants, but are in a state of pure decaying black corpses.
Under normal circumstances, creatures infected into a rotting state will appear grotesque and terrifying, looking more like monsters than their original forms.
However, thanks to Lex Luthor's slight modifications, although the pair of corpses had indeed been completely transformed, their faces still did not have any particularly obvious corpse features.
Their faces were rosy, as if they were still alive, and they even had smiles on their faces.
Then, with smiles on their faces, they ran up to Batman, Bruce Wayne, made a trembling motion as if they had been shot, and then fell down in front of him to perform "death." Their originally rosy faces quickly turned into rotten, unrecognizable corpse faces under the catalysis of the decaying black power.
"..."
Here they come again! The third group, Thomas and his wife, are lining up and running. Every body is worth it!
The couple had menacing tentacles growing from their backs, each with sharp teeth, a variant of some kind of cosmic conqueror Staro, forcibly implanted into Batman's parents by Luthor.
The next contestant is the parents of the Metal Spirit, who were modified into cybernetic bodies. This exhibition about the sudden death of Batman's parents has now entered...
"Enough." Batman, Bruce Wayne, composed himself. He was angry and sad, but the continuous deaths of his parents in parallel universes had numbed his emotions.
In the anti-Justice League plan left behind by Batman in the Justice League, the document codenamed "Detective" once pointed out that Batman was a superb fighter and an unprecedented strategist.
Although distracting him is the only and best way to reduce his strategic ability, this method can only reduce his ability for a very short time, or even just a moment.
Therefore, we must strike the moment his attention is diverted, deliver a fatal blow, and secure victory.
Just like when Bane was carrying out his plan, he chose to dig up Batman's parents' graves first. After Batman, who was shocked and furious, rushed over, Bane attacked him from behind while he was grieving, sealed him directly into the grave and buried him alive, so that Batman could have dinner with his parents.
The entire plan went smoothly, leaving Batman no chance to retaliate.
Never think about finishing off someone—if you try to do so, Batman will react quickly, snatch the knife, and kill you in a powerful counterattack fueled by rage.
So, according to Batman's theory, Bane actually saved his own life by not waiting at the grave for Batman to crawl out and finish him off, because Batman said he only had one chance to attack him...
Now, it seems that Luther has wasted this only chance.
But Luther knew that wasn't the case.
Right?
Batman thought all those parents were just parallel universe counterparts, but in fact...
Luther wasn't as malicious as the other party thought.
His Batman once thought he was about to die, so he revealed too much information he knew to Luthor and the entire Justice League. Given Luthor's personality, after learning of the existence of every creature in the main universe, he regarded them all as potential enemies.
Today's battle wasn't initiated by Luthor, but his confrontation with Batman was definitely premeditated, not a spur-of-the-moment decision.
He used the genes of Batman's parents to clone a large number of failed clones. From an experimental point of view, these clones were complete failures. Not only were they incapable of developing intelligence, but they also had extremely short lifespans, dying almost immediately upon taking shape.
The problem is that their corpses are excellent materials for spellcasting.
Not far away, Batman had overcome his fear and was wreaking havoc among the corpses of his parents.
His parents' bodies were piled up like mountains, but for Bruce, it was all like autumn leaves being swept away by the wind, leaving his heart as calm as still water.
He half-squatted on the ground and gently laid one of his parents' bodies flat on the ground, then swiftly knocked down another body and gently placed them on the ground once more.
Luther didn't care, even though he had almost used up his reserves. He knew Batman would believe these clones were his parents from parallel universes, and it was all to create a false impression for Batman.
"I bet you think those Thomases and Marthas are just parallel universe counterparts, right? Well then..."
A burst of rousing music began.
Luther's smile was both sinister and insane.
"Rejoice! Welcome the father of fathers, the Thomas of Thomas, the dead of dead—"
"The Ultimate Killer King, Thomas the Evil God!"
"That's right, just as you thought, the bat is a monster formed from a combination of Thomas and Martha from the main universe—"
Luther shouted:
"Hear my command, all members of the Bat Parents Legion, salute the evil god!"
With a series of loud cracking sounds, the bodies of Batman's parents, who had been knocked down and lay flat on the ground, all stood up straight. They raised their hands above their heads in a crooked salute. Some of them, whose spines had been broken, stood up but fell down again after a short while, making a series of thuds.
Batman, who was laying his parents' corpses flat on the ground, suddenly stood at attention.
His eyes were red.
Insulting the corpses of the parallel universe's parents' counterparts was already enough to generate enough hatred, but if he actually insulted the corpses of his own parents...
Actually, no, Luther didn't have time to steal the corpses at all, but he summoned so many corpses before to lay the groundwork for this moment.
He wanted Batman to truly believe that he would steal those corpses and that he could actually steal them.
The credibility of a thief claiming he has just committed a theft is completely different from that of a judge claiming he has committed a theft.
The cloned corpses of Batman's parents were merely a means to implant the preconceived notion that "evil Lex Luthor loves to dig up graves - little Batman obediently pulls up his parents' graves" into Batman's mind, thus helping Luthor complete the deception before him.
And the moment that Luthor had been waiting for—the moment that would render Batman's judgment completely null and void—arrived at this very moment.
boom!
In an instant, Luther knocked Batman unconscious from behind as he ran towards his parents, leaving Batman wide open. The old Batman collapsed like a statue, his body slumped over.
"Good heavens, this is really tough." Luther wiped the sweat from his face, then pulled out a replica of Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth and tied Batman up like a dumpling.
"I finally won!" he exclaimed, then turned to the others. "I wonder how things are going on the other side."
……
……
……
Brainiac looked at the Batman in front of him with some suspicion.
The Laughing Bat knew his opponent; he was Barbatos's subordinate, leading Barbatos's most important Dark Knight Order.
However, Brainiac didn't know how the Batman Who Laughs ended up here. To be honest, he hadn't paid much attention to the Batman Who Laughs' movements. This character might be a well-known help in the battle, for example, he and his knights could help Barbatos recover more of his power and also assist the opponent, making Barbatos's combat power even higher.
But in the grand scheme of things, they were never the decisive figures. They were just icing on the cake, minor characters. Brainiac didn't even know that Barbatos blamed the Batman Who Laughs and imprisoned him at the bottom of the Forge of the World, nor did he know that the Batman Who Laughs had once left but was sent back by Batman's decree.
"Wait a minute, how did you betray Barbatos? All your power should come from him. An electrical appliance can't operate without a power source."
"Barbatos no longer exists, sir."
Then Brainiac saw the Batman Who Laughs shake his head: "If Lord Barbatos still existed, we would follow him forever. But now Lord Barbatos has become a vessel for someone else's power. His body is still being driven, but in fact, his willpower has completely collapsed and been utterly destroyed."
"For us, this situation is no different from his death. Some force has killed Lord Barbatos. We have lost our master, lost the meaning and value of our existence. We desperately need a new thing to cling to, like vines that need to chase after higher and thicker branches."
Brainiac. He wasn't quite sure what the other party meant. Was this a trap, or Barbatos's backup plan?
"What exactly do you want me to do?"
"Your command, Master," he heard the Laughing Bat obediently say. "Barbatos has abandoned me, and I need a new master to survive."
My Dark Knights and I are ready to obey your commands at any time to defeat the Justice League of the main universe! We are willing to stand against the entire world for you!
"But... but I don't need to be an enemy of the Justice League, nor do I need to be an enemy of the whole world."
Brainiac said that, and then he realized that the Batman Who Laughs had made some sense.
His desire to create a diverse and integrated society seems to be no different from being at odds with the whole world.
But something felt off; he felt...
A whisper sounded in Brainiac's ear, drawing his attention to the Batman Who Laughs's new words and halting his own thoughts.
Brainiac's extraordinary wisdom was completely powerless against the whispers; his willpower was easily led by the nose, and he was completely unaware of it.
It was a tragedy, or perhaps a blessing, who could say for sure? In any case, Brainiac continued listening.
"Please give us a job, I beg you."
He heard the voice of the Laughing Bat: "We can help you resist the main universe and prolong its chaos, which will certainly be of help to your great cause."
Brainiac frowned again, finding it utterly absurd and perhaps a trap.
He was about to refuse, but then a whispered voice rang in his ears, and he changed his mind.
"Okay," he said.
