What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 682: Our minds are united! Lord Barbatos!
The Dark Knights are not weak after being strengthened by Barbatos. To some extent, they are already part of Barbatos.

But for Chen Tao, these members of the Dark Knights were the solution to the problem. Barbatos only strengthened them, not changed their nature. Not only did Barbatos not expect Chen Tao to reach him so quickly, but Chen Tao himself did not expect it.

Of course, Chen Tao also thought of something, such as...

"Get out of my world furnace!"

Faced with Chen Tao's good advice and politeness, Barbatos started cursing.

Chen Tao understood the other party's anger very well. Now no matter who appeared in the World Crucible, it would not only bring him, but also the mad dog-like Emperor Clown and his allies.

He was forcibly dragging Barbatos into the battlefield against his will.

But understanding does not mean sympathy.

In the cage of the World Crucible, the Laughing Bat was still trying to pry open his own seal, but he was already trying to control the enemies outside the crucible.

He was now trying to seize control of the furnace door. He was using the authority that Barbatos had given him to carefully bypass the opponent's willpower and pry open the furnace door. The Laughing Bat intended to use the opening of this portal as his bargaining chip, but then he felt that the portal opened before they could control it.

As Emperor Joker and Brainiac filed in, the Laughing Bat only got one message from his failed plan:
“Everything went as I planned”

Kuangxiao looked at the mockery in his usual tone with an unpleasant expression.

"You don't consider whether or not to put in an enemy as a threat at all?"

He murmured quietly, "Are you going to let Barbatos face these enemies directly?"

No one knows Barbatos' current condition better than the Laughing Bat. Although Barbatos looks weak and has suffered serious injuries, these are far from fatal blows to him. Apart from no longer possessing the Anti-Monitor Dragon, his strength has not actually declined much.

Barbatos sometimes behaves timidly simply because he is cowardly, not because he is weak.

According to the Laughing Bat's speculation, although he is now very afraid of these characters outside, if he really lets them into the World Crucible, Barbatos can expel them all by himself and at most suffer some ordinary injuries.

Barbatos was scaring himself. Even an "ordinary" person like the Laughing Bat who didn't master the power of the sixth dimension could determine the outcome of the battle, but Barbatos refused to even suffer this little injury.

His mentality has completely changed into that of a gambler who leaves the gambling table and swears that he will never gamble again.

Although such vows to stop gambling are often broken, at least they can still seem real at the beginning.

This is also what the Batman Who Laughs originally speculated that Batman Dragon would take advantage of. He thought that Batman Dragon would use Barbatos' inexplicable fear of the enemy to blackmail the other party, such as:
"Lord Barbatos, you don't want the Emperor's Clown and these enemies to rush into the World Crucible to besiege you, right? So you must give me some power to help me save William Hand."

Similar to this style of painting.

The Laughing Bat knows what's going on with William Hand.

Even though he was imprisoned, the Laughing Bat's information was never outdated.

He knew that Emperor Joker had presented Chen Tao with a shoddy version of a family death, a repetitive art without any creativity and making people laugh, but it just hit the weak spot of Batman Dragon.

The Laughing Bat guessed that Batman Dragon must have prepared an escape card for William Hand when he sent him out, but he didn't know why none of these cards were activated, and he was captured by the Emperor Joker.

The Emperor Joker has definitely set up a dangerous trap next to William Hand. If he rushes in recklessly, the Batman Who Laughs will be 200% sure that Batman The Dragon will be killed.

But if we borrow the power of Barbatos and take advantage of the situation that Barbatos, the emperor clown, has never considered, perhaps we can easily overcome this crisis.

It's like a pony crossing a river. For the pony, the river is turbulent, but for Barbatos, the elephant, it is probably just above his knees.

If Batman Dragon wants to break through, he must rely on the power of Barbatos. He must control this elephant that has not yet realized that it is an elephant.

Barbatos never tried his best. He always placed his hopes on Batman's dragon, or the Dark Knights after he strengthened them. He never thought about the results that Parallax Demon Hal could achieve. If he tried his best, he could fight even more brilliantly.

In this era when no gods of the sixth dimension appear, it is unique in the history of the entire multiverse super-time stream for the undisputed number one in the world to have ended up like Barbatos.

But no matter how cowardly he is, he is strong, but Batman did not follow the path that the Bat Who Laughs wanted.

If he exposed the powerful enemy imagined by Barbatos and made Barbatos realize his true level that was completely superior to that of the world in the Crucible of the World, how would he convince Barbatos to give him strength and help him save William Hand?
In the furnace.

Barbatos' eyes were almost red.

He had tried his best to keep these enemies out of the World Crucible, but now all his efforts have been in vain.

He was furious and planned to attack Batman Dragon.

As Barbatos roared, the entire World Furnace was trembling in response to the call of the Lord of the Furnace. A large amount of magma surged like a tide, and in the middle of the most decisive flame, Barbatos was entangled in the flame and swung his claws at Chen Tao violently.

But Chen Tao's words made Barbatos stop his attack.

"You need a Barbatos dragon, you need a collaborative god. And I am the best person."

Originally, Barbatos controlled the Anti-Monitor Dragon. His most powerful phase was when he teamed up with the Anti-Monitor Dragon to fight Hal and Superboy-Prime in the Crucible of Worlds.

But Barbatos misunderstood the reason for this power. He attributed this powerful force to the influence of the Anti-Monitor Dragon, which is why the other party's betrayal now makes him so worried.

"Are you willing to accept my power? Are you willing to embrace the dark matter energy and become my believer?" Barbatos was overjoyed, but he was flatly rejected by Batman Dragon:
"No, I will not become anyone's believer. I will only borrow your power. Our relationship is equal. We are no longer master and servant, but like friends and brothers."

There was no way in Barbatos's brain to understand this kind of relationship. He was the Dragon of the Dark Multiverse, and he had never had any friends, let alone brothers.

The only brothers he had ever seen, the World Forger and the Anti-Monitor, set a bad example for Barbatos and made his understanding deviate from that of normal people.

"So you don't want to..."

"I didn't say I didn't want to." Then he heard the voice of Batman Dragon, who spoke to Barbatos in a very ambiguous tone, full of suggestion.

"I can be the Dragon of the Dark Multiverse, or I can be the Dragon of Barbatos. Our personalities are connected. Do you understand?"

This connection was forcibly taken away from Barbatos by Batman Dragon. Barbatos' face sank and he was a little impatient. But just when his patience was about to collapse again, he was rescued by Chen Tao.

"Come on, let me prove it to you. As long as you stop preventing me from borrowing your power, I can help you drive the Emperor's Clown and his group of clowns out of the World Crucible without you having to do anything."

Barbatos was somewhat moved.

Even though Batman refused to let his power infuse into the other party and completely transform him into a soft whip that obeys him, it seems that just borrowing some power to drive out Emperor Joker and others seems to be an acceptable result?
Barbatos was already somewhat disappointed with the Dark Knights. Batman had only temporarily concealed his eyes and ears. When he reacted, he only took a glance to see how Batman had fought against the Knights who had been strengthened by him, and then appeared behind him silently.

Does this mean that other people besides Batman can do this? And can easily defeat his carefully strengthened men?

Of course not. The Dark Knights' members basically have the same abilities as the Justice League. Even a master like Chen Tao, who is good at beating his teammates, had to use a lot of tricks to defeat them. The next time he wants to target them, he can't use the same method. This is definitely not something that anyone can do. But Barbatos now thinks so - this misunderstanding is only good for Chen Tao.

Barbatos was almost tricked by Chen Tao, but he quickly reacted.

"Wait, didn't you let the Emperor Clown and the others in as well?"

"But I saved you from the fire and water. No matter how the fire and water came about, just tell me whether I was saved or not."

Chen Tao said: "We can't always dwell on the past, but should look to the future. Put the Emperor Clown and his men into the World Crucible. I was your enemy back then, but now I am your ally."

Barbatos sneered.

He had already disdained to refute Batman Dragon's unscrupulous sophistry, but what the other party said still made sense:

He now has to face both Batman the Dragon and those incoming Emperor Jokers at the same time.

What? Make peace with the Joker Emperor and hand over Batman's Dragon in the Crucible?

What a joke, if a robber breaks into your house and says he just wants to catch a dog, will you believe him? Even if what he says is true, how can you guarantee that he won't just stab you?

So for Barbatos, when the enemy broke into the World Crucible, he had only one option, and that was to fight.

But now Chen Tao offers him another one, which is to engage in a new proxy battle.

Barbatos likes agents, and this proposal alone is enough to attract Barbatos. No one understands Barbatos better than Chen Tao.

The power of habit is so terrible that after years of dormancy, finding an agent has almost become an instinct for Barbatos.

So he accepted it.

"Go ahead, Batman Dragon." He looked at him jokingly. Even if he provided power to Batman Dragon, Barbatos didn't think Chen Tao could suppress Emperor Joker and his allies. But the problem was...

Chen Tao looked at me with a leisurely gaze.

The moment Barbatos nodded, a large amount of energy from the dark matter universe was already available to him.

Although these powers are not his, through the status of the Dark Multiverse Dragon and the invocation of 29% of the Bat-Mite's fifth-dimensional divine power, this majestic energy, as huge as the stars and eternal night, has been controlled by Chen Tao - temporarily.

Chen Tao lowered his eyes.

the first.

Barbatos underestimated himself.

He looked at Barbatos who had hidden himself in the darkness again. After getting a new agent, Barbatos hid himself out of habit.

If this place wasn't the world's melting pot, Barbatos' lair, Chen Tao even doubted that the other party would leave the area without worry.

second.

Chen Tao thought silently.

Emperor Joker would never want to see Batman the Dragon being captured here.

He hoped Batman would escape, he hoped Batman would think he had found a way to save William Hand, and then rush over only to be one step too late.

In the family death incident, the Joker deliberately set a bomb and killed Jason Todd, who was beaten half to death by a crowbar, just one second before Batman arrived. Based on the Joker's previous behavior pattern, Chen Tao could easily infer a piece of information:
As long as he didn't appear in front of William Hand immediately, William Hand would always be in the state of "beaten half to death by a crowbar" instead of "killed by a bomb".

He was able to delay a little bit for a short time only because the Joker's perverted demand for perfection would make him pursue the comedic effect of "Batman is just a little bit away".

But these comic effects are premised on Batman being able to get to the place where his Robin was blown to death.

If Batman is caught before he reaches Robin, what's the point of this good show without the actor?

From this we can infer that...

"Barbatos, my brother, listen to me..."

"Who is your brother...Okay, you tell me."

"From now on, I want you to silently recite seven impossible things."

"What do you mean?"

"1. A Batman who can transform into a Batman from another parallel universe."

Barbatos heard Batman say, "2. Barbatos working with Batman."

"You're talking about..."

"3. The first Lantern who found his mother."

"4. Parallax Mohar, who created a perfect world."

Then he heard Batman say.

"5. Superboy-Prime gets what he wants."

"6. Retired Batman Dragon."

Barbatos felt the endless dark matter cosmic energy being mobilized by Batman's dragon. He pulled out a crowbar from his arms. The energy gathered on it, causing the space to vibrate, making him look like a god.

In the shallow layer of the World Crucible, Emperor Joker has already sensed the power erupting from Batman's Dragon, and a grim smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"7...I can defeat Emperor Clown and all his allies on my own!"

The devastating energy wave gushed out from the depths of the World Crucible, and under the deliberate guidance of Emperor Joker, it hit the Anti-Monitor Dragon's face, who was caught off guard, and then penetrated Brainiac's body. Barbatos saw Batman turn around and whispered to him softly:
"Lord Barbatos, our minds are united."

For a moment, Barbatos was in a trance.
