Multiverse of Marvel - Chapter 786: Darksied (3)

This was where Batman came in. He used his heat vision at the glass shield that was placed above and around her head. Batman used the full strength of the heat vision for the first time since he debuted the power of a Kryptonian.

He had always held back his heat vision until now because there was no need for it, but this battle, this war demanded that. Red laser type light fell on the shield which not only burned away the zombies that were crawling on her robotic body but also burned away the glass.

Martha wanted to run away but the piling zombies on her body didn’t allow her to run away. She wasn’t able to move even after the zombies were killed around with the heat vision. After a minute of using heat vision, the glass shield finally had a hole and the hole just got bigger with every passing second.

But it didn’t take long for Martha to scream as the heat vision passed through the hole and impacted right at the neck area of Martha as it burned a good amount of her neck.

She screamed in pain as Batman finally stopped using his heat vision.

DC Batman came forward to let Batman stop using his heat vision. Any more would kill Martha. Batman looked at DC Batman with red eyes as he closed off the heat vision. Cracks appeared around his eyelids. Constant use of heat vision did prove to be damaging to the skin and tissues nearby but it was healing at a very fast rate.

“You want to spare her?” Batman asked.

“We don’t kill.” Batman said.

“We? Your inability to kill and put an end to the matter has made people die and live in misery. If you would have killed Batman who Laughs long ago, this wouldn’t have happened. But what did you do? You imprisoned him. In your own batcave. You have led countless prisoners and psychopaths roam free. And you care for this person who is a blot in the memory of our mother? A person who wanted to kill you. Oh sorry! I forgot. You are already dead.” Batman ushered his sharp mouth on DC Batman.

There was eerie silence in the room, as everyone saw the emotional outburst of Batman for the first time. He had always been calm but today he seemed to be a lot more agitated. DC Batman just heard the words of his version from the other universe and hung his head.

He didn’t know how to reply to this. His inaction had led to many problems which had caused many catastrophes but he still was adamant on no-kill rule. He was berated by many. Wonder Woman had criticized this before but Batman never paid attention.

This time it really came back to bite him.

“We are not criminals. We aren’t judge, jury and executioner.”

“No we aren’t. So you think it’s the morals that hold the world together. No, it’s the strength. It is the power that you have in your hands that holds the world together. If you have enough strength these rats would not have even crawled into Gotham. Your nightmares are what built the Dark Multiverse. It is your views that influenced everything.” Batman said.

DC Batman had no words to counter his other version.

“Enough. We don’t want any more emotional outbursts here.” a very old voice came from behind. This person was wearing a white haori and he looked so old that even his eyebrows had turned white.

This was Yamamoto. This mission needed a good amount of manpower and thus even Yamamoto had arrived. With all the other Captains.

“Yamamoto-sama..” Batman had respect for this old commander like the others in the team. Actually in this war against Darksied Batman, he was their main ace because they knew that the Kryptonite stones would render Batman and Superman impotent.

So it was better to bring Captains in this war and in a way he was the leader of the people who would confront Darksied.

DC Batman and Diana also backed away when Yamamoto came. They have no idea of who these people were but they could feel that everyone here respected these people. Especially the old man with a cane.

DC Batman couldn’t feel the power of Yamamoto like DC Diana but he could tell from the way he walked and carried himself, that he must be amazing. Yamamoto used his cane to open the shield which was on the verge of breaking.

Martha had become unconscious and Yamamoto just used his cane to press on her forehead. With this small action he died.

“I have brought the soul to our Seireitei. She will lose all her memories. Bruce Wayne after this ends I will take your soul to our Seireitei. You can choose to be with your mother who had lost her memories. I admire your no kill policy so I can do this small favor for you for having this determination.”
