What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 496: How to Throw Superboy-Prime into the Sun

I am Batman.

I am also Chen Tao.

I once thought about defeating the Anti-Monitor using ordinary methods, but later facts told me that such an idea was just a delusion.

He is a demon king beyond all my cognitive experience and different from any monster I have ever seen.

So, in order to deal with him, I have to prepare.

Green Lantern Planet, Mogo.

Mogo is the most powerful member of the Green Lantern Corps, but in addition to this title, Mogo is also responsible for the recruitment of new members of the Green Lantern Corps and the forging of Green Lantern rings.

Yes, Sinestro enslaved the entire weapon master and his people on the planet Korwad to help him forge Yellow Lantern rings day and night, allowing him to raise a large army that could rival the Green Lantern Corps in a short period of time. But another question is, what about the Green Lantern Corps? Who is the ring forger of the Green Lantern Corps?

Mogo.

It is a living planet that can help the Green Lantern Corps forge a large number of rings from its core day and night, and this is exactly the ability that Chen Tao needs.

"Batman, what on earth do you want to do? You don't need Mogo. Your mission is just to delay the Anti-Monitor and let him stay in your universe long enough. Then your mission is completed. The Speed ​​Force Storm will trap the Anti-Monitor for you."

Chen Tao turned on the communication, and the image of Night Owl appeared next to him.

"It's obvious that I'm trying to seize control of Mogo. You know what I want to do, Night Owl? Can't you guess it by now?"

"You violated our agreement and seized control of Superboy-Prime, and now you're trying to take control of Mog's. Do you still expect to defeat the Anti-Monitor?"

"why not?"

Then Night Owl heard Batman's reply with a gloomy face, his voice was unusually serious:
"Isn't it waiting and hope that keep us going in this world?"

Night Owl was a little annoyed. Batman was violating the agreement between them. He was taking as many things as possible so that his world could survive longer, but this did not change anything about the overall situation.

Batman and his world are doomed, there is absolutely no doubt about that.

He slowed down his tone: "Are you not suspicious that I will not take the people on your Earth with me? I can assure you now." He paused, and finally said:
"I have the heart of the planet that belongs to my world. This thing can not only serve as an engine to propel a planet, but can also help the two universes overlap to a certain extent."

He said: "I can choose to overlap the space of the Earth, and then take away a lot of people on your Earth when the two universes separate, but the Earth is the center of the universe, and this planet must remain in this universe, otherwise the speed force storm will not be strong enough, or it will not be able to be stirred up at all, and it will not be enough to control the Anti-Monitor."

Chen Tao understood what Night Owl meant. Simply put, the essence of its operation was to make the two universes overlap, the two earths overlap, and then directly capture all humans on earth, so that no one would be missing or diminished.

"Then I will create a mass portal covering the entire Earth, and teleport all the humans from your Earth who appear on my Earth away in batches, so that they will not fall on my Earth and turn into meat patties."

It seemed that Night Owl had already prepared a plan. After realizing that it was impossible to escape as he had originally planned and trick Batman and everyone on Earth into dying instead of his own universe, he quickly adjusted his mindset and came up with a remedial plan.

This also made his previous empty words "I will come back and open the portal to save the people on your planet" seem even more ridiculous, but Night Owl was obviously very thick-skinned and did not feel any shame at all.

Chen Tao seemed a little noncommittal: "I want the Supreme Little Superman."

"Of course, he has full control over you."

"No, I mean..."

Chen Tao shook his head.

He flew along the deep cave towards the core of the green lantern planet Mogo, and his voice echoed in the rock wall:
"What I mean is that I need Superboy-Prime to obey my orders right now. I need your cooperation on this point. After all, you control the part of his personality that is completely normal."

Night Owl had a bad feeling in his heart, and he asked, "What do you want to do?"

Then he said, "Wait, damn, I got your idea, Batman, you're really into it - you're going to throw Superboy-Prime into the sun and let him absorb the yellow rays?"

He said, "Are you crazy?"

"Why not?"

"You ask me why I can't? What did the two of us do to Superboy-Prime? Okay, okay."

Night Owl paused, then said:

"You've never made the Mobius Chair. You don't know how powerful Superboy-Prime was in his prime. You don't know what kind of beast you are unleashing."

"After Barry Allen possessed my body, I have mastered the technique of attaching the Speed ​​Force to a universe or planet. But I could have pushed the time of the entire universe forward 15 days, but I only pushed it forward about 10 days, do you remember?"

Night Owl heard Batman's voice: "There is still a lot of speed force left in this universe... These speed forces can push the timeline of the entire universe forward 5 days, but the universe is so vast. If I use these speed forces that are enough to restart time for other purposes, such as accelerating the space within the scope of a planet..."

"Then... it will create a spectacle that would last for a year outside but ten or even hundreds of years inside the planet..."

Night Owl said: "No, but it's useless. It turns out that Superboy-Prime is not affected by the restart of time in the single universe."

"If Superboy-Prime doesn't want that."

"What do you mean?"

"Superboy-Prime can break free from the changes made to him by this timeline!"

Chen Tao said: "He is too strong, just like he can break free from any influence of magic. The so-called magic and the timeline of the single universe are like thin threads to him. Although they can pull him, he can break them at any time if he wants. But what if he finds that the position that this thread leads him to can make him stronger?"

"What if he is willing to take the initiative to cause this change?"

Night Owl didn't ask stupid questions like "How do you convince Superboy-Prime?" He believed that Superboy-Prime would be willing to stay in the sun for a while, then gain unparalleled power and kill them all.

He directly stated the result of Batman's plan: "According to your idea, if you throw Superboy-Prime into the sun, then he will be able to..."

"Yes, that's right, Night Owl, you are really smart. He can withstand thousands of years of direct sunlight in the sun in a short period of time. He will become a fucking god!" Chen Tao said: "If this can't defeat the Anti-Monitor, then I don't think there is any need for me to struggle."

The Night Owl was silent.

"You're really crazy, but you know that Superboy-Prime is a madman. Once you really do that, the Beast Personality controls the power of the Red of All Living Things, and with my incomplete Anti-Life Equation, nothing can control Superboy-Prime in that state."

"He'll tear you apart, Batman. After what we did to him, he'll show you what true cruelty means."

"And then he'll restart the universe timeline, he'll try to restart the universe timeline, just like the one he's been chasing."

"He will become a greater threat than the Anti-Monitor, he will destroy—"

"You're right! He will destroy the Earth!" Chen Tao said, "At that time, you will have passed the boundary between the two universes, just like using glue to stick to the dust on the table, and brought all the intelligent life on the Earth to your universe."

"Can anything that Superboy-Prime does to the remaining single universe affect the Earthlings in our universe far away in your universe?"

"Think about your plan, Night Owl. Your universe will become a tram in the dark multiverse. Superboy-Prime only wants to forge a beautiful world that meets his expectations. He has nothing better to do than to try what will happen if his head collides with your tram."

"And he won't even know of your existence. He will just think that you have disappeared and escaped. As long as you are not extremely unlucky, you will never meet Superboy-Prime again in your life. You will wander in the dark multiverse according to your plan, and then wait for the opportunity to go to the light multiverse—"

"Superboy-Prime poses no threat to you!"

Night Owl stopped talking. Batman had thought of everything and arranged it thoroughly, but there was only one thing -

"I need to take risks. Once the planetary heart that drives my universe forward is activated, it will be a huge risk for me to come back and save the people in your universe. How can you be sure that I won't break my promise?"

He asked Batman: "Do you trust me so much? Do you dare to believe that I will come back to fulfill my promise without any constraints?"

He said, "You must be prepared for this, Batman. You must have a way to clamp me down."

"Yes."

Then he heard Batman say, "I have."

Night Owl looked at Batman, he believed that the other party would not be stupid enough to say such a thing about Nightwing Dick Grayson.

He likes Nightwing very much, and he has the emotional resonance of another child in him. Nightowl knows very well that emotions are the most unreasonable thing, but he also knows that he loves himself more than Nightwing.

He would never die for Dick, but Claw Dick would.

This is exactly why he has always felt guilty, but even so, this guilt will not interfere with his normal judgment.

"I demand that you give me everything you need to create a Speed ​​Force storm."

"Impossible." Night Owl's face suddenly changed.

He flatly rejected the proposal. Batman was thinking too highly of himself. His original plan was that once the Anti-Monitor entered Batman's universe, he would create a speed force storm in Batman's universe. Batman would contain the Anti-Monitor until the storm took shape, completely trapping the Anti-Monitor to death. Then he would use this window of opportunity to accelerate his own escape from the universe.

It is he, not Batman, who decides when to generate the Speed ​​Force Storm. Once the timing of creating the Speed ​​Force Storm is handed over to Batman, it is equivalent to him losing the ability to actively destroy the Batman universe. God knows what Batman will do?
If he went back on his word and didn't use the Speed ​​Force storm to destroy his own universe, but instead released the Anti-Monitor from his universe, then chased after his own universe and broke directly into it, and used the Anti-Monitor to beat up the traitor, wouldn't his entire plan as Night Owl be ruined?
But then, Night Owl was forced to accept the situation that he had not expected:

"Do you think you are the only one who has the means to trigger a Speed ​​Force storm?"

Chen Tao said: "I can also create a speed force storm."

Batman, who was heading towards the core of Green Lantern Mogo's planet, waved his hands slightly and then Night Owl observed a disturbance of the speed force from his owl computer.

He suppressed the anger in his heart and said, "You activated the speed force of the entire universe! Has absorbing Barry Allen really enhanced your abilities that much?"

Night Owl found that he had shot himself in the foot: he had deliberately allowed Batman to reboot the timeline, intending to use it to show Batman how invincible the Anti-Monitor was, so that he could either fight or make peace with him later.

But the current situation is that after Batman absorbed the Flash, his power has exceeded his previous expectations, or Night Owl's own estimation is correct. Batman's teammates, that is, Aquaman Arthur or Wonder Woman's group, if they die, or enter a state of death, Batman's ability will increase dramatically!

This is simply an absurd conclusion. Ye Xiao himself didn't believe in his own judgment before, but now this is the fact.

"I can use the Speed ​​Force to open a hole and release the Anti-Monitor before the Speed ​​Force storm is fully formed. I want to tell you that I have the ability to harm others without benefiting myself, Night Owl. Give me the control of triggering the Speed ​​Force storm. It will be good for both of us."

“We hold each other back.”

The Night Owl was silent.

"it is good."

He said.

Then he heard Batman say:

"If you really haven't broken your promise...if I haven't broken my promise either."

"Then everyone will be able to escape successfully. Only I need to stay in this universe to trigger the Speed ​​Force storm, completely seal the Anti-Monitor, and face the wrath of Superboy-Prime."

Night Owl heard Batman whisper to himself: "It's better for me to die alone than for everyone else to die."

The night owl was silent.

The classic desire for self-sacrifice and the stupid rules of being a superhero...

He thought silently.

Batman's deliberate attempt to send away the humans on his Earth has repeatedly proved that he does intend to carry out his plan, but Batman and him have some conflicts on the details, which has caused Batman to manually correct them.

Batman's plan doesn't seem impossible.
