Mobius watched the entire process of "The Batman Who Laughs" - this is the name "Batman with the Spiky Eyepatch" gave himself - destroying the remaining Court of Owls.
How should I put it? The members of the Court of Owls obviously have IQ problems. When they gave up hunting and turned to apostles to transform Bruce Wayne in a single universe for their own use, their imagination was lackluster. They basically merged his abilities with other superheroes, and then
Create nondescript freaks.
For example, "The Dawnbreaker" is a fusion of Green Lantern, "The Murder Mae" is a fusion of Cyborg, "The Merciless" is a fusion of Wonder Woman's power, and "The Drowning" is a fusion of Cyborg.
"The Drowned" fused with Aquaman, "The Devastator" seemed to want to fuse with Superman but failed, and finally fused with Doomsday, and "The Red Death" took away the Flash's speed
force.
They obviously forgot that Batman's most important characteristics are actually "ordinary people" and "wisdom." Because hard power is insufficient, super intelligence is needed to protect him. Once Bruce Wayne has super powers other than "money power",
Ability and IQ will directly decrease.
One of the most obvious examples is the "Nine Knights" of the "Dark Knights". Although they are all omnipotent in the sky and on the earth, when they encounter trouble, they have to turn to the "Iron Batman" who has no ability to make decisions - like
Incredible "Iron Man" Tony Stark from the universe next door.
The Court of Owls' final resistance was completely wiped out by the "Laughing Bat" created by them, which blended the Joker's madness and Batman's wisdom, but was only a mortal.
The reason why I emphasize that the "original body" is a mortal is because he does not have super physical fitness like other Batmans who have been transformed into super villains, but he has weird "card" abilities.
Although the Joker is a card in itself and also likes to use traps and puzzles with poker elements, the Laughing Bat is different. He uses 22 cards starting from "The Fool" and ending with "The World".
It is a Tarot card in the conventional sense, but all the cards are his own image.
The great thing about these cards is that they can "modify reality". Although they can only affect a single universe, they are already very powerful.
For the darkened Batman, the Court of Owls doesn't care whether they know about their original tricks. Anyway, they have been transformed and twisted, and there is no possibility of turning back.
Then, the Laughing Bat defeated them with just six cards.
Specifically, the Laughing Bat allows those "blackened Batman" to modify their "origins" by "giving cards". Now, from the beginning, they are "undercovers" who endure humiliation and endure hardships, rather than real people.
Distorted mind.
These cards are:
"Dawn Lamp": Symbolizes "Strength, VIII" of "will".
"Iron Fist": "The Lovers (VI)" which symbolizes "union".
"The Drowned Soul": "The High Priestess (II)" which symbolizes "wisdom".
"The Destroyer": "The Tower (XVI)" symbolizing "destruction".
"Red Death": "Death, XIII" which symbolizes "the end".
The cards and events seem to have no rules, but people who are fully aware of how these Batmans were born can vaguely detect that the background or experience, the darkening process or code names, the contents and symbols of these used cards seem to be the same.
Those darkened Batmans are related.
However, there seems to be a problem with the "modification" of the "Laughing Bat". Judging from the blackened Batman who followed orders and jumped back, he did modify their history and past, but the "state at this time" and "current strength"
"But nothing changed.
In other words, he only changed their origins so that they were not controlled by the Court of Owls, but as the world evolved, they still became what they eventually became.
If it's not that there's something wrong with these worlds themselves, it's that the Laughing Bat wants to gain the power they have at this time.
But the problem is...the Court of Owls has been completely wiped out, what else does he need the strength and subordinates to do?
Wait until they come back and say hello.
————
"Congratulations, 'Laughing Bat', the Court of Owls has been completely wiped out," Iron Batman said without congratulations at all: "Now, you and other companions you recruited can return to the 'Monitor Realm' with us and obey Mo
Lord Bius’ arrangement.”
While he was speaking, the restraint devices on the Bat Fleet flagship and the weapons aimed at him were still working. Obviously, what he just said was an order rather than a suggestion.
"[Hehehe, is that right? 'Mobius'? Is that the master of your 'Dark Knights'?]" The Laughing Bat completely ignored the cages and deadly aim, and grinned even wider.
"Watch your wording," Superman-Batman said: "Lord Morbius has never considered himself a master. He gathered us together to better eliminate the multiverse disaster of the Court of Owls."
"[Oh, no, no, no, I don't mean to disrespect that gentleman at all. Although he didn't save many universes, he actually eliminated a large number of the Owl Court and took away their power, didn't he?]" The Laughing Bat bared his teeth.
.
"Man, of course we know that the Court of Owls has some high-level devouring abilities, but we have never thought about anything that is not our own power," Batman, the spirit of the beast, murmured while hanging on the ceiling of the bridge: "Look at those powerful abilities.
What the hell is the claw like—oh, sorry, Claw Batman, I didn’t tell you.”
"[Hehehe, you just let these 'devouring powers' escape? If they are absorbed by other universes where the Court of Owls does not appear, and give birth to those little birds, what are you going to do?]" Laughing Bat played with the wolf in his hand.
Pai asked.
"Lord Mobius has a way to deal with it." Superman and Batman replied solemnly.
"[No, no, no, I think I have a better way,]" the smile on the Laughing Bat's face became even crazier: "[As long as all the bats are eliminated~then the owls that feed on them will naturally not be born~right?]
"
"!
"While other Batmans were still shocked, angry, or thinking of words to refute, Iron Batman had decisively ordered the use of deadly weapons against them.
However, no weapons were activated, and even the energy, magic, or other cages used to restrain the Laughing Bat were completely ineffective, and he just walked out of it with a big mouth.
"[You've been fooled.]" The Laughing Bat stretched out two fingers and showed a picture of "The Magi, I" in reverse position.
Buzz——
After the words were spoken, Batman who was a force person tried to attack, and Batman who was an intellectual person tried to activate his backhand, but with a strange sound, everyone remained motionless in their original posture.
"[Hehehe~ This is really interesting,]" Laughing Bat strolled among the crowd: "[When you were talking to me, you had already activated the battleship, right? You want to take me directly to 'Mobius'? What if
It will indeed be a bit troublesome for you to succeed, but...】"
The Laughing Bat walked to the porthole of the spacecraft and raised his arms high.
"[Where do you get the confidence to pass through the 'subspace' secretly without being discovered?]"
Buzz——!
At this moment, the entire battleship disappeared, leaving only an empty gray space in Batman's field of vision, and a giant flaming eye that was watching them, almost covering the sky.
Hee hee hee hee hee...
With a new, ominous sound, a large number of monsters wearing gray cloth cloaks began to appear around the giant eyes, and their bodies were just a ball of black mist. They flew towards all Batman slowly and clearly.
