Chapter 213: Earth Negative Twelve—Ares, God of War!

Bruce had believed that killing Superman would leave him grief-stricken. Instead, only boundless rage remained within his heart!

He was furious because he could have saved everyone and prevented the destruction of those cities.

But because he had trusted Superman, he acted too late, allowing everything to end in tragedy!

He had also transformed himself into an irreversible Doomsday!

At that moment, he roared and raged, yet there was nothing he could do.

It was already too late!

Then darkness descended.

“Perhaps it isn’t too late, my brother.”

The Batman Who Laughs emerged from the black mist and showed Bruce the other universes of the multiverse…

And the countless Supermen living within them!

Bruce agreed without the slightest hesitation!

He could not allow Superman to deceive anyone else. He swore that he would kill every last Clark Kent!!

From that moment onward, he was no longer Batman.

He had become…

The Devastator!

DCEU World.

Inside an underground safe house, Lex Luthor wore an expression of excitement.

He had known that he was right!

Someone had finally seen through the Kryptonian’s true nature just as he had—and that person was another Batman!

Originally, he had placed his hopes upon the dark entity approaching from among the stars.

But now, it appeared that he possessed an even better option!

Oa.

Sinestro drew a deep breath.

He had never imagined that an ordinary mortal could possess such overwhelming emotional power!

Even ignoring the unnatural existence known as the Dawnbreaker, the Batman before him was equally absurd!

As one of the most powerful Green Lanterns, Sinestro could clearly sense another force within the scene!

A Red Lantern ring of rage!

It had been attracted by the Devastator’s limitless fury and had already locked onto Bruce!

But terrifyingly…

It did not dare descend!

Sinestro could think of only one possible explanation.

The Red Lantern ring had sensed danger!

If it appeared, Batman would undoubtedly crush it!

Such a thing was completely unheard of!

The Boys World.

Starlight stared at the horrifying figure, intense fear filling her heart.

A fanatic was not necessarily frightening.

What was frightening was when that fanatic was Batman!

Compared to him, the mentally unstable Homelander practically looked like a cheerful and innocent young man!

DC Prime Universe.

Within the void, a peculiar light appeared in Doctor Manhattan’s eyes.

“Superman…”

He murmured the name, his voice containing confusion and a trace of excitement.

After entering this universe, he had “seen” three different origin stories belonging to Superman.

And all three had somehow occurred within the same world!

It was truly fascinating.

Now, an entirely new unknown had appeared within the Dark Multiverse.

Although the various versions of Batman were interesting, Doctor Manhattan had become even more curious about the man named Clark.

Themyscira.

Thoughtfulness appeared in Queen Hippolyta’s eyes.

After witnessing Superman’s character and power in the previous videos, she had considered asking Diana to establish contact with him after leaving the island.

Perhaps he could even take responsibility for guarding the Mother Box.

Although it was somewhat humiliating to admit, Hippolyta knew that the Amazons alone could not protect such an object.

But now, that was no longer an option.

Superman would clearly be recruited by Batman, and the latter was currently surrounded by far too many uncertainties!

Truthfully, compared to an apocalypse caused by Superman’s fall, she was even more concerned about Batman falling into darkness.

Diana noticed her mother’s concern and revealed a helpless smile.

She still believed that Bruce deserved their trust.

He was a natural leader and would be essential in the coming battle against darkness.

As the saying went…

Only darkness could defeat darkness!

But just as she was about to defend the Batman of this world, Diana suddenly turned toward the screen in surprise.

She had sensed her own divine power.

Earth Negative Twelve!

This world was far from peaceful. War existed everywhere!

Within such a world, Batman and Wonder Woman gradually developed feelings for one another during their years of fighting side by side.

Eventually, they became lovers.

Diana, who had originally wanted to see what another version of herself was like, immediately blushed.

She had experienced many things throughout her life, yet for some reason, seeing the two figures relying upon one another still caused ripples to spread through her heart.

But in the next second, her expression abruptly changed!

Another familiar presence had appeared!

Ares, the God of War, forged a powerful helmet capable of amplifying his divine power more than a hundredfold!

He then broke through the restrictions placed upon the divine realm by the Wizard at the Rock of Eternity and descended into the mortal world!

Mount Olympus.

Divine power surged like an endless prison!!

At that moment, the one whose eyes burned with desire was not Ares, the God of War.

It was Zeus, King of the Gods!

A hundredfold amplification of divine power!

That was a true qualitative transformation, one powerful enough to restore Zeus to his former greatness and allow him to rule the entire world!

He could even easily kill Darkseid and ensure that the invader would never escape a second time!

In the next second, Zeus turned toward Hephaestus!

As the God of Smithing, perhaps he could analyze the helmet and reproduce it!

Regardless of the difficulty, this was an opportunity!

With a god personally entering the conflict, the war became even more horrifying!

Steel, flames, and death…

Billions of lives perished!

Only two years later was the source of the catastrophe finally stopped!

Through the combined efforts of Batman and Wonder Woman, they succeeded in knocking the hideous black helmet from Ares’s head!

Outside the screen, flames of rage burned within Ares’s eyes!

It was that traitor again!

Her bloodline was impure. She should have been drowned at birth!

And his father…

Zeus had continuously fathered children because of that ridiculous prophecy.

What complete foolishness!

Now that they had been sealed within the divine realm for so many years, preventing Zeus from seducing women everywhere, no one had appeared to overthrow him!

Naturally, Ares did not dare say any of this aloud.

Although their plan succeeded, the price was Wonder Woman’s life.

Bruce held Diana’s corpse in his arms and roared toward the heavens, wailing in agony!

In the next moment, he picked up the helmet!

Although Diana had warned him that the object would corrupt his mind, he did not hesitate!

He swore that Ares would pay the price!

In the next second, he placed the helmet upon his head!

On Mount Olympus, the gods sneered.

How could a mortal possibly withstand an artifact created for a god?

The instant he put it on, divine flames would undoubtedly burn him into nothingness!

Not even his soul would remain!

On the battlefield, the wounded Ares rose once again!

As long as the world remained engulfed in war, his power would continue to regenerate endlessly.

Without Diana, even if Ares no longer possessed the helmet, that mortal could never defeat him!

More laughably, Bruce had actually attempted to wear the helmet himself!

But in the next second, Ares saw golden divine power erupt in the distance like a blazing sun!
