Hawks from the Land of Light are calling me a dove and an undercover agent in the chat group.

This is the ultimate, standing at the pinnacle of the Ultra Universe; this is Father of Ultra and Alien Empera!

Chapter 133 Gotham, I, Constantine, am here!

The political affairs of the Land of Light, the political affairs of the Emperor Empire, the Ultra Brothers, the Dark Four Heavenly Kings, the Universe's First Martial Arts Tournament, and so on.

Hibiki Yuta and the others were naturally very interested in these things!

But that's usually the case, not now.

Frankly speaking, only those who witnessed this battle can truly understand their feelings right now; there is really no other word to describe them except "exhilarated."

The previous battles, whether it was the black mist in Miko's world, the demon aggregate in Hachiman's world, or Gridman fighting monsters in Yuta's world, were certainly exciting and intense battles for a group of ordinary high school students.

But their natures are different.

Those were battles fought to protect the world, battles waged with resolve and justice.

At that moment, whether on or off the field, people weren't concerned about how good or bad the game was, or how exciting it was. Instead, they breathed a sigh of relief and immediately focused on whether they could win, and whether the side of justice was injured or safe.

No one would watch those battles as a spectator; instead, they would feel the pain and worry about the safety of the world and their friends.

But this time is different.

The strength of Father of Ultra and Alien Empera had been determined to be evenly matched countless times, so everyone knew that Father of Ultra would not lose. Moreover, he didn't need to protect anyone this time; it was just a one-on-one duel in the universe.

Moreover, it wasn't a decisive battle, but just a friendly sparring match.

Under these circumstances, Yotsuya Miko and Hibiki Yuta were finally able to watch the battle with complete peace of mind for the first time.

Once you see it, you'll naturally be deeply captivated.

"..."

Bruce, the only one who wasn't completely engrossed in this spectacular cosmic battle, was either quiet or had a headache.

So you mean there are three things that are even more powerful than those that can crush stars with their bare hands, create supernova explosions with a single punch, and easily determine the future of the entire universe with their every move, living in their world and eyeing such a small place as Gotham.

Oh, or perhaps they're not eyeing Gotham, but rather the Earth.

But what's the difference?

If Earth is threatened, how is it any different from if Gotham is threatened?

Bruce's heart sank to the bottom.

Of course, he hadn't lost his fighting spirit. No matter how formidable the enemy, one must always try to save oneself; one cannot simply give up.

As things stand, he has absolutely no clue how to fight against someone who has been confirmed to be even more powerful than Father of Ultra.

Bruce fell into thought.

It is known that, in reality, a powerful being of the level of the Empera aliens would never be interested in an ordinary planet.

The reason they descended upon Earth in the Ultra Universe was simply because several Ultra Brothers were stationed there one after another, and even Father of Ultra had appeared there. They wanted to destroy Earth to slap the Land of Light in the face.

Conversely, if Gotham Earth were just an ordinary Earth, it would be impossible for it to be targeted by three such powerful beings.

In other words, there must be some profound secret hidden on Earth, a secret involving a power level at least at the level of Father of Ultra, which is why Barbatos and his two powerful allies are so concerned about Earth.

If he could find and master that secret before those three powerful beings descended to Earth, he might have a better chance of winning.

To accomplish this, we must first eliminate all the evil surrounding Gotham and find allies in both the real and the underworld... no, perhaps mercenary relationships are more reliable than allies.

A name popped into Bruce's mind.

The death knell.

The renowned assassin's abilities are backed by countless verifiable victories, and he has an extremely reliable track record in terms of tracking and trust in his employers.

When we get back, we'll hire this guy to help with the search!

"call!"

Bruce was slightly uneasy for a moment, then his eyes hardened. He cleared his mind of the exciting battles in the Ultra Universe to avoid disturbing his thoughts. He tapped the chat group, and his multi-day journey into the world of magic ended on the spot.

Cold, shivering...

Upon returning to Gotham from the world of Hachiman, Bruce immediately noticed the stark difference in atmosphere between the two places; this place was far too dark and eerie.

Before, I was unaware of my own existence while I was in the police force. Now, after taking a trip to other normal worlds, I'm suddenly struck by how outrageous and extraordinary Gotham is. Even an ordinary citizen here is extraordinary to an extreme.

However, even if he knew these things, there was nothing he could do for the time being, so Bruce could only put them aside for now.

He looked around and saw where he had left and where he had returned. Although it was clear from all the places that Alfred had come to clean and take care of things every day, there were still traces of the passage of time.

The computer screen also showed a time several days later.

It seems that regardless of who traveled through time in the chat group, the passage of time in each world remains consistent, and Gotham is not unique in this respect.

Bruce walked out of the Batcave and waited patiently for a while. Everything was normal. No demon or evil god that could crush the earth with a flick of his wrist suddenly appeared to question him about where he had been these past few days.

Very good. It seems that while the unknown things surrounding Barbatos are watching him, they are not the kind of remote surveillance that is 24/7 without any blind spots.

We can get started now.

Bruce paused for a moment, then immediately returned to the Batcave and sent a message to Alfred to let him know he was back.

"Sir, you really picked a good time to go on vacation. Gotham has been peaceful these past few days. Apart from a few congressmen dying, a few bank robberies, and a few gang shootouts, there are only the usual petty thefts and entanglements."

"The Penguin, for some reason, has fallen into a rare silence. Oh, this is so unlike him. If you ask me, you should probably pay more attention to that elegant fat man. Maybe he's plotting something new, like, perhaps, a siege against Batman?"

Alfred rushed back as fast as he could, all smiles.

Since the Wayne couple's accident, he, the butler, hadn't had a single good day. But these past few days, he'd been feeling refreshed and even had time to play cards with Lucius. He felt like he'd suddenly become ten years younger.

"Penguin?"

Upon hearing this, Bruce pulled up the bug he had planted while tracking Oswald, who had just been released from prison. After listening to it briefly, he shook his head speechlessly and said, "Ignore him."

These past few days, that fatso has been either watching Ultraman or calling meetings with his subordinates to discuss the grand plan of "creating a brand new hero IP that surpasses Ultraman and will shock the world."

The message reads, "Let the damn, stupid Wayne family eat shit, and let our gang be great again!"

Sigh, hysteria.

Regardless, it's a good thing that Oswald has recently shifted his focus to this kind of thing. At least he doesn't have to worry about this fat guy causing trouble in his future actions.

"By the way, sir,"

Alfred casually remarked, "The Ultraman series has already been promoted internationally and is very popular. In my opinion, it will be difficult for the Penguin to compete with it."

In the world of Hachiman and Miko, although the Ultraman series is known worldwide, it was not able to become a top global IP before the arrival of Kasa, and it was even difficult to become a first-tier IP.

There are various reasons for this, which need to be explained in detail, but in short, none of them are important.

Anyway, thanks to the Wayne family's extensive promotion and because of the different worlds, the Ultraman series has become popular in various places as soon as it was broadcast.

"Then let Wayne Group provide Oswald with some appropriate support."

Bruce nodded, "If he wants to commit crimes again, we'll cut off Wayne Enterprises' cooperation with him."

Having traveled through the world of Hachiman, Bruce, who had become somewhat more cheerful, made a decision he would never have made before.

Perhaps we don't necessarily have to stick to the Batman idea.

Batman is undoubtedly an indispensable deterrent and source of fear in Gotham, but perhaps he can do more with Wayne Enterprises.

"master?!"

Alfred was shocked. If it weren't for the fact that his old butler could unconditionally tell that his master was still Bruce Wayne, he would have seriously suspected that his master had been possessed by something.

Bruce shook his head, not wanting to get sentimental: "Do as you say."

"Yes."

Alfred nodded, his voice choked with emotion. He didn't know what had happened to his master, but at least he could see that things were moving in a positive direction, in the direction he had always hoped his master would change.

Bruce Wayne can only be Batman; that's the master's principle. So, even now, Alfred doesn't think he'll ever see the day when the master takes off the Batman identity.

But it's different now.

The word "can only" can perhaps be removed.

Bruce Wayne is Batman, but Bruce Wayne may be more than just Batman!

This is exactly the change the old butler wanted to see!

"Although I don't know who changed you, sir, thank you, Alfred, thank you from the bottom of my heart!"

Alfred prayed silently.

"So……"

Bruce pretended not to see Alfred's little tricks. He tested it out and found that he could still use items related to magical powers in Gotham, which was good news as expected.

Next, he should go do other things.

Just as Bruce was about to figure out how to hire Deathstroke, an alarm suddenly went off, and Bruce's eyes sharpened.

Surveillance footage from somewhere in Gotham was transmitted from the Batcave.

A giant bat-shaped light illuminated Gotham!

That wasn't Chief Gordon's Bat-Light; it was a person, a stranger from out of town, a strange man dressed like a detective, with a scruffy beard and an unusual air about him!

He turned on the Bat-Light and spoke slowly and deliberately into the monitor:

"Welcome, John Constantine, Batman!"

Chapter 134: Scumbag Kang vs. Scumbag Bat, the merger of two of the worst trio.

"John Constantine?"

Inside the bat cave, Alfred looked at the man with suspicion, then looked at his master and asked, "Do you have other friends outside? Surely not old friends like Reshogu from before?"

Alfred emphasized the words "old friend".

Although the Reshogu incident is over, his old butler will never forget that, so far, since the master returned to Gotham, the three people who have had the hardest fights are the Joker, Bane, and Reshogu.

If he had been a little less lucky, Batman might have lost to Rashogu in the same way he lost to Bane, which could have led to the destruction of Gotham.

From then on, whenever he saw someone from outside Gotham who recognized the master, his old butler's heart would start to pound with fear, as he worried that the person might be a terrifying fellow like Ray Shaw.

Fortunately, Bruce decisively denied it, saying, "I've never heard of that name."

Upon hearing this, the old butler immediately breathed a sigh of relief.

But before he could even catch his breath, Bruce continued, "This Constantine is no ordinary person. Judging from his demeanor, he might be even more difficult to deal with than Rashogu. He's not someone to be trifled with!"
