What bad thoughts can Batman have?

Chapter 893 The Divergence Between Batman: The Dragon and Heroes' Day
Reality trembled in the face of attack, and the heart of the Mother of All Things stirred as if she had just awakened from a nightmare.

She could sense what was happening, she could see the whole picture, and the foundation of the universe beneath her feet was being rewritten from the highest sixth dimension.

Even though the physical body was not completely reconstructed, the mere fact that Papetua's willpower broke free and appeared in the DC multiverse was like an elephant suddenly appearing in a nearly overflowing bathtub, causing a violent tremor.

Mandrak is her disciple, carrying her will, vowing to break all the rules that stand in their way and rise from the ruins.

When thought broke free of its constraints, Papetua had never been closer to wholeness… but her great work, the beautiful multiverse, was closer to destruction than to herself. She left this world a complete multiverse, a powerful weapon that could wield immense power without his mastery, yet everyone in the DC multiverse failed to live up to it.

From the sixth dimension down to the most basic form, the multiverse's mother, Papetua, knew that her children were making things worse, and that was not her intention.

“Mar…”

She lowered her head, her star-like eyes drooping, and the watcher almost trembled.

"So...weak. The earliest child in this new realm, with a body of flesh and blood borrowed from the void, a primordial life, has actually reduced himself to such a weak state?"

The surveillance is doing something now.

Drive history forward with all your might!
The Hypertime Flow is still there, buddy. It's one of the last lines of defense in the multiverse. Even if it's forced to cause the destruction of the multiverse, the DC multiverse can circumvent it by changing the future through the Hypertime Flow.

Papetua has come down from the wall, which is troublesome, but not entirely so. If he can reverse the time flow, he can restore history to the moment before his mother came down from the wall. This would at least allow him to reseal his mother back onto the Origin Wall.

Papetua hasn't defeated the Hypertime Stream yet; she doesn't have the strength to defeat it.

She ignored her own desperate struggle to stop her offspring, and instead turned her head to meet the gaze of Dr. Manhattan, who was hidden in the void.

The bald blue man felt pressure... but it was purely a matter of power... Dr. Manhattan remained calm and composed.

Quantum computation allows it to appear simultaneously in every corner of the timeline, but what he now wants to peek into, to understand, is to continuously predict the future of the trans-temporal flow through these changes in the future of the timeline...

It's like predicting when the next road paving will happen by observing whether the existing road surface is uneven.

Pappa withdrew her gaze and looked again at the observer before her. The other party had single-handedly stopped her from the point of endless looping just as she was about to leave the wall.

“Look what you’ve done to the vibrant, beautiful, and breathtaking multiverse I created. It was meant to be extraordinary.”

The Mother of the Multiverse looked down at them: "Now you are the weakest of your brothers. After what you did, you should have been the strongest of the three?"

Yes, according to the situation after the Mother of the Opportunity Multiverse, Papetua, was sealed by the Eagle Judge, the authority of the Anti-Monitor was directly replaced by the Origin Wall. This resulted in many of the powers and authority he controlled being transferred to the Monitor. As a result, the power of the Monitor at that time was roughly equal to that of himself in the past plus the Anti-Monitor.

He gradually pushed himself back into an even weaker situation.

however……

“Those are not what I’m looking for, Mother.”

Papetua stared at him with his golden eyes, looking at him mockingly, his anger still simmering.

In a daze, the monitors seemed to hear their mother speaking at this moment, words that overlapped with the words she had spoken to them at the beginning of creation.

“I have shaped this multiverse into a classic triadic model, with three realms composed of three fundamental substances.”

After discovering that the Watchers could not stop Mother Papetul, the World Forger could no longer feel at ease assuming his own power.

He restrained the almost uncontrollable Parallax Morhal, then temporarily threw him back into his baby multiverse, before rushing toward the hyper-timeline point where Papetua had successfully escaped.

He must team up with his brother, the Watcher, to distort that timeline and reverse the history of their mother coming down from the wall.

It doesn't matter; the time it takes for the multiverse's mother, Papetua, to descend from the wall is less than a fraction of a second.

The situation is a bit complicated, but it's not impossible to get the mother back.

But then, almost at the same moment he appeared, he saw his mother looking at him.

"Dark matter is full of potential."

Then he heard his mother talking to the monitor.

"Positive matter is enduring and stable."

The Anti-Monitor also appeared. He was forced to rush to confront the three's common mother. With the Anti-Monitor's arrival, the history of Papetua, who came down from the time-travel, was prevented from continuing.

Immediately afterwards, the voice of the Mother of the Multiverse also began to rise in pitch:
"I call you Alphaus! Forger of the world, I command you to work in the darkness beneath creation. You will be a powerful forger, thriving anywhere in the world!"

In that instant, the World Builder was struck by lightning, and the Mother of the Multiverse called out... She called out to that upstream of the trans-timeline, to that primordial moment when she created the history of the three brothers.

She's using this history to influence the three brothers...

"I call you Mar Nou! You will oversee everything that enters your pantheon, you will witness their development and prevent any crisis that arises between them, and you—Mobius! You are the opposite of the overseer, an anti-overseer, you will guard the edge of creation, ensuring that there is no life there. Birth, life, death, my children, you are brothers of all creation, you will witness their prosperity and their decline!"

"Stop reading it. You know that's all in the past... Now, stop it all, or else..."

The multiverse's mother, Papetua, knew what was about to happen. If he insisted on forcibly descending from the Origin Wall, then the three now-complete brothers would merge into the Ultimate Watcher...

Without the overall fusion, without unlocking the seven crisis energies, the belief that everything would be destroyed never spread.

Papetua is not yet capable of dealing with the Ultimate Watcher, even the one comprised of her three crippled sons. She knows very well that this escape was too much of a fluke; her three children will not let her go, and she doesn't need to leave.

But that doesn’t mean she can’t use this time to do something.

Having temporarily freed a portion of her will from the wall, the Mother of the Multiverse has already planned what she will do next.

Has anyone noticed that Mandraklak, who was lying there, has disappeared? And soon, Mandraklak will appear in another place: the center of Earth's city in the multiverse forged by the World Forgers.

That's really interesting.

Just now, a tiny creature made eye contact with Papetua, the mother of the multiverse.

When Superman Chen Tao spotted the Multiverse Mother, Papetua, the Multiverse Mother herself also noticed Superman Chen Tao. This was definitely a malicious glance.

It appears that her son made progress during the time she was not present.

Perpetua realized that, despite the lack of necessary conditions, his progenitors, the World Builders, had still managed to create a genuine cosmic center through a roundabout means.

If only we could hold the center of the universe in our palms...

For the Mother of the Multiverse, victory would be secured immediately.

……

……

……

"I have a plan."

The main universe's Superman heard Batman Chen Tao say.

"?What?"

“Listen to me, Clark, though it’s a little embarrassing to say. The World Maker doesn’t actually have the ability to create the core of the universe. The so-called complete core of the universe that he created is just using your flesh and blood and personality. So in a sense, no matter what kind of person, property or gender this core of the universe is, it is a part of you, or at least was a part of you.”

"so……"

"So I need you. I need you to come a step closer, closer to the core of that baby multiverse, and then I can make my move."

Chen Tao was still deep in thought and didn't notice the frown on the Superman's brow.

He subconsciously mistook Superman in the subject for his own, so he gave orders without any attempt to hide it or hesitate. This was a small mistake he made, and therefore he naturally received a question from the Superman of the main universe.

What exactly are you planning to do?

Chen Tao paused for a moment, then realized the mistake he had made.

“It’s very simple.” He immediately began to make amends: “We won’t hurt anyone, but that multiverse core is originally your separated personality and flesh and blood. As long as you absorb it to regain the flesh and blood that were taken away and the personality that was created by the World Maker, and then you kill this personality in your heart, then the World Maker’s conspiracy will be over… Don’t worry, I have already sent an old friend of mine to infiltrate the World Maker’s infant multiverse first, and then meet the created infant multiverse core. With him reporting the location to us, we will find that core very soon.”

Chen Tao quickly said, "Actually, I tampered with the multiverse core that the world forger might create a long time ago. I felt that if the world forger had the opportunity, he would definitely try to create his own multiverse core and enjoy it. And in the end, it was exactly as I expected... This time, you will definitely win if you take back your own flesh and blood and personality. There is absolutely no possibility of losing."

Hero Day also secretly carries the Superman from the N52 era of the main universe. As long as you absorb that dog tag... I mean, take on the other's history and identity, you'll have a chance..."

Chen Tao didn't mention that the main universe's Superman had the potential to destroy the entire Baby Multiverse with a single punch. He didn't expect it; simply taking the core was enough to make the World Forgers' efforts go to waste.

Without the Multiverse Core, the best-case scenario is that the World Builder himself goes into the Infant Multiverse and becomes the protagonist of that multiverse, just like he did in the original Sixth Dimension comics when he took on the role of the Multiverse Core.

If Chen Tao can achieve this goal, he'll be incredibly lucky. The idea of ​​shattering an infant's multiverse with a single punch, or a three-generation simultaneous punch, is unthinkable.

The main universe's Superman was still asking, "But has that other personality of mine become an independent life form...?"

"Haven't I already said that it's not an independent life? It was created by the world's creators with your flesh and blood and your personality."

"But according to you, he now has independent thinking ability and an independent physical body, and his race is Kryptonian, right?"

Do you mean you're fixated on race?

"No, I mean he is an intelligent being capable of self-thinking!"

"A split personality of yours is not an intelligent life!"

Chen Tao started to feel a headache coming on.

This has nothing to do with the rules of superheroes; it's simply that the two of them have slightly different definitions of life. For Chen Tao, he doesn't even think that a split personality is an independent life.

The most merciful method he considered was to stuff this personality, which had been spawned by the World Maker, into some other strange body, rather than having the main universe's Superman kill it.

But that would definitely dilute the power of the main universe's Superman, so he still preferred to destroy that personality of the main universe's Superman. That's practically a blank slate!

However, Superman is clearly a materialist.

He heard Superman from the main universe claim this:

"Batman Dragon, we must overturn our previous plan. I can't just absorb this young core like that!"

The main universe's Superman always felt that the personality that had split off from him was a brand new life. Where did this strange idea come from? What is the significance of your non-killing rule at this moment?
Even if you intend to preserve his personality... sigh.

As Chen Tao walked and talked, he began to miss the Justice League members who had always completely obeyed him. Soon they met Hero Day, who was with the Baby Multiverse Core.

Then he heard the first thing Hero Day said:

"Batman Dragon, we must overturn our previous plan. We can't let Superman from the main universe absorb this young core like that!"

No, why are you becoming disobedient too?
