What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 784 Ah, old friend... old friend
The World Forger sits quietly outside the infinite time flow of the DC multiverse.

At this moment, as an outsider who can observe the battle situation at any time and join in anytime and anywhere, he overlooks the entire battle situation from top to bottom.

He saw Time Master and Booster Gold being chased away in the future timeline of Doomsday along with the future Batman Terry. He also saw Luthor and William the Dark Knight together. The three parties were chasing each other and fighting in a mess.

He also saw the Monitor and the Anti-Monitor team up to kick out their mother Papetua first, and he heard the unwilling whispers of the Hand of the Void as it withdrew with Papetua.

The World Forger was quick to notice.

The Hand of the Void is even more difficult to give up than their mother who was imprisoned in the wall.

After losing control of Barbatos, he attempted to send his evil nobles to invade the DC multiverse.

idiot.

The World Forger only made a slight move to block the power they intended to re-inject into the DC multiverse.

The World Forger is not stupid. All disputes within the DC multiverse will disappear into thin air after he creates his own baby multiverse and then uses it to "swallow an elephant" to swallow the DC universe, directly giving birth to an adult.

How could he allow the Hand of the Void to intervene?
If the opponent was strong enough to enter the universe by himself, and his mother Papetua also came down from the wall, then he might consider sitting on the mountain and watching the fight, but his plan is going smoothly now.

If nothing unexpected happens, the snake-swallowing-elephant plan will be completely successful, and he will have the opportunity to control the entire multiverse before his mother escapes.

If he was fast enough and combined the strength of his brother, he would be able to trap his mother on the Origin Wall in the new world he created, and directly skip the step of going down the wall to suppress his mother. Then he would have nothing to fear.

And now, he has found a more reliable ally.

The World Forger has a deep gaze.

In fact, although the Anti-Monitor and the Monitor now both want to manipulate Barbatos and invade the main universe to create crisis forces in order to resolve the disturbances on the current timeline as soon as possible, their attitudes towards the issue of the World Forger are still very different.

The Anti-Monitor means I don’t care what’s wrong with you, the World Forger, my current plan is to devour the entire multiverse and then deal with Papetua.

The Observer's attitude is that as long as the multiverse is fine, I can accept it.

It is obvious that the Monitor's attitude towards the World Forger is not as resolute as that of the Anti-Monitor.

Therefore, for the World Forger, the Anti-Monitor is determined to follow his own plan of [The Anti-Monitor strengthens himself and beats up his own mother] no matter what, and it is absolutely impossible for him to agree with the [World Forger creates a new universe] plan.

Instead, the monitor...

The World Forger turned his attention elsewhere.

Although their mother Papetua was expelled from the game by the Anti-Monitor and the Monitor, she still left a chess piece on the field:
The Laughing Bat.

Papetua seemed to have left some of his power to the Laughing Bat through some channel, perhaps the blood of heaven?, but this was irrelevant.

(Note: Skyblood, to put it simply, is the blood of Papetua's aunt. Papetua used this substance to give birth to the Dark Watcher Mandrake, a kind of monsterized watcher, on the watcher's body. Later, under the sunset that never falls, he was defeated by the Thinking Superman, also known as the Thinking Robot.)
Even though the Laughing Bat is still manipulating the timeline of Doomsday Future and competing with the Owl for the Cosmic Tuning Fork, his defeat is only a matter of time after he lost his supporters behind the scenes, so there is no need to worry about him.

Even with those powers, he would not be able to resist Barbatos under the control of the Monitor and the Anti-Monitor.

His mother Papetua was in the most desperate situation. She actually placed her hopes on a trash character like the Batman Who Laughs, who was just a remnant of the dark multiverse. When the Anti-Monitor drove Papetua and the Hand of the Void out, the Batman Who Laughs was also eliminated.

There are others like Terry and Kevin Roosevelt, the future Batman, Luther, William and others, all of whom are minor characters.

The World Forger had no interest in their chaotic battles.

If a group of ants fight, even if one of them wins, he will never be able to defeat him and will not be noticed by him at all.

This is not because the World Forger is arrogant, but because he is standing too high. After obtaining P Chao, his plan has been partially successful and his strength has been enhanced.

He already has the ability and courage to ignore the threats posed to him by some of the weaker characters.

No matter how they flapped and struggled, it was nothing more than a breeze on the face of the World Forger.

There is nothing fundamentally wrong with this idea. The World Forger chose to focus more on those more important characters, and this decision was very correct.

But the right decision...is not necessarily effective, right?

Destiny is often a very interesting thing, and current decisions will definitely produce feedback downstream in the super-time flow.

Those timelines that have not yet solidified, those broken, unfinished histories that are like mirrors. As a god of the sixth dimension, the World Forger is not unable to discover these flickering spots if he observes carefully.

But he just didn't do that. He regarded these spots of light as dust and straw.

But they are Mars.

They were the last straw.

This may be a mistake, or a joke of fate, or...

In the DC multiverse, that great pan-consciousness, after sensing the intentions of the world-creator, is it trying its best to retaliate?

All in all, the World Forger was now thinking silently, his heart surging.

The Monitor can be won over, and what he has to do now is to defeat his brother the Anti-Monitor, and then control Superboy-Prime to maintain the DC multiverse from collapse. Then, with P-Super as the center, he can calmly start the [Multiverse Convergence] event and completely complete the snake swallowing elephant of the baby universe.

So now, the World Forger waits for an opportunity.

Waiting for his brother Anti-Monitor to help him cut off Batman's dragon and control Superboy-Prime, and then he will take action to seize the outcome of the battle.

The World Forger believes that this opportunity is not far away.

Soon, soon.

He also controls Heroes Day.

Regardless, things were under his control.

……

……

……

Chen Tao is very conflicted now.

Deep down he didn't want to manipulate Hero's Day, but he was well aware that he was already preparing for this manipulation.

As the time for Superboy-Prime to return draws near, his options become increasingly limited, so he can only change the direction of his persuasion and try to make a last stand.

"Whoever you are, Hero Day, no, Horned Monster, look me in the eyes."

Chen Tao grabbed Yingxiong Ri and forced him to look into his eyes.

"No matter what, our friendship is real, right? We are old friends, and being with you, even if this life is very short..."

At first, Chen Tao just wanted to use words to cheer up Hero Day a little, but as he spoke, he didn't even realize that there was some sincerity in his words.

And in this world, why should we distinguish so clearly between sincerity and falsehood?

"We are old friends, Hero Day, you really helped me a lot, it's okay."

As Chen Tao was talking, he wanted to slap himself. What do you mean it doesn't matter?

But he continued.

"It doesn't matter if you can't help me control Superboy-Prime now. I just want to tell you that you will always be my friend."

Really disgusting.

Chen Tao felt his tongue was tied, but he continued to speak.

"I want you to be well, and I can't let you suffer like this. What I said is very confusing, but I hope you know that whether you can help me control Superboy-Prime or not, the fact that you are my friend will never change."

He said, "Please, don't be like this. You are now an intelligent life, you are a free life, no one can define you. Don't worry about Mrs. Nasby, that is the Anti-Monitor's definition of you. What you really want to be...only you can decide."

After saying this, Chen Tao didn't want to say anything else. He knew that no matter how much he said, it would all be useless nonsense. He turned around and waited for the Supreme Little Super Monkey to appear.

He has accepted this fact.

He has already made up his mind.

Yeah, he shouldn't have forced Hero Day.

Hero Day never thought of being a hero. All his previous acts of being a hero were simply the result of manipulation.

Not to mention whether he could deceive Superboy-Prime after manipulating Hero Day, even if he did...

If he forces a Hero Day now, it would be equivalent to forcing an innocent person to pay for his heroic behavior. You want to be a hero, fine, you can be one yourself, you can pay the price yourself, but!
You must never let others pay the price to complete your heroic deeds.

Chen Tao felt ashamed for the thought of trying to force Hero Day just now.

This behavior is despicable and shameful. He tried to manipulate Hero Day's body, instrumentalize Hero Day, and put it back into the tragic situation of being instrumentalized.

He tried to make Hero Day pay the price of being instrumentalized once again, simply because Chen Tao could force him to do so.

The nature of this behavior is completely different from the previous behavior of simply placing a thought stamp to prevent Hal from deviating from the plan.

This is not a heroic act.

Chen Tao has made up his mind and has decided to pay the price, but this price will not be paid by others, but by himself.

He decided to persuade Superboy-Prime himself, and if that didn't work...

Get ready, Chen Tao.

Next, it's time to embrace Barbatos and fight to the death.

"I……"

Hero Day looked at his hands.

Then he spoke in a dreamlike voice:
"You said, if the little monkey saw me now, he would definitely not like me, right?"

"Yes."

Then he asked himself and answered:

"Superboy-Prime likes the heroes of the Golden Age."

"I won't force you, my friend." Chen Tao only said one sentence, and then said: "I will never say something to comfort you and then try to provoke you to obey my orders... I could have manipulated you like this, but I disdain to play these tricks."

Hero Day looked at Batman Dragon in front of him. Batman Dragon did not look back at him. He just left Hero Day with his back.

"Our guess was correct. On Hero's Day, your memory was indoctrinated, and they did terrible things to you. I'm sorry, but we are still friends, and old friends at that. This will not change because of whether your memory has been tampered with. That's it."

Hero Day still didn't speak. He looked at Batman's back. The small, possibly non-existent shadow was projected on him, covering Hero Day's huge and burly body.

"I should have lost the ability to make the Supreme Little...Monkey obey my orders." Hero Day said.

He originally wanted to change it to Supreme Little Super Monkey, but finally went back to their nickname.

"I'll try," he said finally.

Chen Tao remained silent. He no longer had time to speak.

Monkey Prime is about to return, and Barbatos is about to be completely suppressed by the Anti-Monitor and fall back into sleep.

The little super monkey is getting closer and closer.

Chen Tao used the fifth dimensional energy to sense his distance.

Three, two, one.

Rumble, rumble, rumble...

The space seemed to be burst by something, making a strange roar. With a loud noise like glass being broken in the sky, the Supreme Little Super Monkey made a brilliant appearance.

He appeared in front of Chen Tao and Yingxiong Ri.

Chen Tao's heart was pounding.

Hero Day didn't say anything either.

"Huh? Big Horned Monster, what's wrong with you? You feel a little different."

The little monkey came over, jumping and hugging the big horned monster who looked a little sad.

"Old friend, who bullied you? I'll beat him up."

"You...do you still think of me as an old friend?"

The little monkey looked the other person up and down.

"It's a little weird and different, but I like the big horned monster."

He said: "No matter what the Big Horned Monster becomes, it is still a Big Horned Monster!"

Chen Tao stared blankly at the Supreme Little Super Monkey.

The danger that he and Hero Day had been worried about for a long time...

like……

It doesn't seem to exist.

You will always be you, Hero Day, and you are free no matter what you become, old friend.

I offer you our friendship, forever true.

Always shining.

……

……

……

The periphery of the super-time flow.

The World Forger is observing the battlefield.

well.

He saw the return of Superboy-Prime.

The other party did obey Hero Day's orders.

The World Forger gently extended his hand.

The invisible puppet strings were connected to Hero Day.

It's finally time for the puppet to come into play.

……

……

……

Inside the cosmic tuning fork.

The Laughing Bat stood in the middle with a playful look.

He felt a huge amount of energy being grabbed by Papetua and then infused into his body.

At this time, he had clearly lost the supporters behind him, but the smile on his face did not disappear.

Everything was going as planned. The Laughing Bat raised his finger, and some of the power given to him by Papetua was controlled by him. Then, as his palm slid in the void, a small gap appeared, and a big-eyed monster crawled out from the intersection, revealing a devilish smile and eyes.

This thing is called the Evil Mind Nobles, and it belongs to...

Hand of the Void.

"You did a great job." The Evil Noble said, "We have finally entered the story and this world."

It laughed ferociously: "Come here, this is definitely your most wrong choice!"

"Yeah, yeah." The Laughing Bat also laughed happily.

“The best and worst choice!”
