Chapter 189 : Bryce Wayne!

[BOOM!]

[Inside the bat cave, the Murder Machine delivers a devastating blow to Cyborg with a single punch!]

"Just now, Cyborg barged into the Batcave in an attempt to reverse Bruce's transformation, but was effortlessly defeated and gravely wounded!"

["Bruce, you're mistaken, this isn't truly you!" Cyborg struggled, blood spilling from his lips!]

The Murder Machine gazes down at Cyborg with a satisfied smirk 🙂

["You're mistaken, Victor. The greatest decision I ever made was allowing Alfred to transform me!"]

["As time went on, my skin and flesh became increasingly fragile!"]

["But look at me now, I possess eternal life, an invincible body, and tremendous strength!"]

The next moment, an uncanny determination emerges from Bruce Wayne's lips:

["Most importantly, I've merged with my father, and no one can ever separate us!"]

["Anyone who stands in my way, perishes!"]

Bruce ruthlessly crushes Cyborg's skull the instant the words leave his mouth!

[The red and white plasma splattering across the metallic surface appears especially ghastly!]

(…)

Soon, beneath the leadership of the Murder Machine and its mechanical army, all rebels are massacred!

[Whether weak or mighty, even beings as formidable as Shazam, Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, and others are not spared!]

[Even Superman meets his demise under a barrage of airborne projectiles, his head severed!]

Bruce Wayne, once sworn to safeguard all, transforms into a Murder Machine, ending Earth-63044 with his own hands!

Inside the bat cave, Superman experiences the same dread Barry Allen felt earlier!

It's a hint of fear!

Similarly, the other heroes find themselves in disbelief; they never imagined Batman's descent into darkness would be this terrifying, becoming an overwhelming force against them!

And within the Suicide Squad, Deathstroke comprehends the reason!

Because Bruce Wayne always uncovers others' weaknesses and crafts and executes plans flawlessly!

In essence, it's a complete suppression of intellect.

DC Main World!

Lucifer joked, "Ahem, I never imagined Bruce Wayne, with his thick eyebrows and large eyes, to be so formidable. He's leaving the heroes of three worlds in utter despair, with no chance for the others!"

God chuckled helplessly.

As the acclaimed "Paragon of Mortals," Bruce Wayne wasn't just praised for his unwavering will and spirit. His intellect was paramount. He even glimpsed Batman seated in a "Mobius Chair" in the future of certain universes. At that moment, Batman seemed like the universe's God, nearly omniscient and omnipotent. It was a revelation even to him.

Just as Batman's influence reverberated throughout the various DC universes, the scene began to shift once more.

[A new planet illuminates the star map of the multiverse!]

[Earth, -11!]

(In this particular multiverse, the genders of corresponding characters are entirely reversed!)

[In the next moment, a woman with a flawless figure, captivating beauty, and a hint of heroism emerges.]

"She's Batman!"

"And her name is Bryce Wayne!"

Marvel World!

Deadpool felt a pang of heartache once more. He couldn't help but admit, at this moment, Batman's big sister seemed more alluring than the personification of death. 

The way she carried herself exuded an irresistible allure, likely leaving men with the desire to conquer. Though, in Deadpool's case, he might have been the one conquered.

Dr. Strange, overhearing Deadpool's lewd laughter, promptly distanced himself with a look of disdain. "What are you up to now!?"

Taken aback, Deadpool mirrored Strange's disgust by shifting a few steps away. "Shameless! I can't believe you'd say such a thing!"

Infuriated, Strange nearly spat blood, resorting to a middle finger to express his feelings of camaraderie.

Meanwhile, in the Batcave, Bruce felt a tinge of embarrassment. The Joker, seated nearby, appeared as though he had stumbled upon a revelation, his eyes gleaming. Superman, observing silently, found himself nodding in agreement. 

Bruce's appearance, it seemed, aligned perfectly with his aesthetic standards. Bruce, catching Clark's expression, was taken aback. The pity evident in Clark's final sigh sent a shiver down his spine.

In a corner, Barry cowered, feeling the current atmosphere even more ominous than before.

And just as denizens across countless worlds marveled at the beauty of the female Batman, tragedy struck.

"The reversal of roles did not alleviate the tragic fate of the dark multiverse!

"Batman, Bruce Wayne, devoted her life to improving her world!"

"But the world repays her efforts with heartbreak—her lover Sylvester (reversed Catwoman) is killed by a supervillain!"

"Yet, she remains undeterred, believing in the attainability of her goal!"

"And she continues to strive for it!"

"Not so Dark, is it?

"This outcome is commendable in the eyes of countless viewers!

"However, Bruce, in the depths of the Batcave, shakes his head.

"He sees another layer of hostility in his own eyes!

"It's hostility towards superhumans!

["'Get out!' Sad Bruce begins her battle against the super criminals, and no one can withstand her!

"However, even though this group of individuals are villains, Batman is still seen as a hero!

"Nevertheless, the female Aquaman arrives on land with the Atlanteans shortly thereafter!

"Despite her declaration of coming in peace, in Batman's eyes, she's nothing more than a supervillain!"

"As expected, the peace negotiations between Atlantis and the surface world descend into violence!

"And Batman fulfills her desire, slaying the female Aquaman!

"Bruce had initially hoped to caution the sea-dwelling superpowers, but furious Atlantis swiftly seeks vengeance!

"In a matter of days, the tsunami and hurricane unleashed by the underwater army utterly engulf Gotham!"

"Similar to the biblical Great Flood, Gotham sinks to the ocean floor, becoming a desolate city, and all within meet their demise in the depths!"

"The DCEU world!

"At this moment, the expressions of high-ranking officials from various nations turn grim simultaneously!

"The footage appears to show Batman from another world, so even if Dark Batman appears and others remain unfazed, disaster seems distant to them!

"Yet, the information presented before them paints a different picture!

"If Atlanteans from another world could orchestrate such a catastrophe, then..."

Then, there is a high likelihood that the underwater inhabitants in their world can also accomplish it!

This is troubling news!

Just as numerous elite individuals were caught in a dilemma, Bryce had already initiated her counterattack!

["This is a necessary sacrifice!!" In a cavern, Bruce commenced her transformation!]

["Blood, muscles, bones, cells..]

(She utilized hybrid genes and modified biological organs to grant herself the ability to thrive underwater with mastery and fluidity!)

[And subsequently rallied monsters into the faction "dead water" to secure victory!]

[Ultimately, Batman emerged triumphant in the conflict!

[In a world entirely submerged by seawater, she ascended as the ultimate ruler!]

Although victorious, facing this conclusion, Bruce is presently overwhelmed with sorrow!

And Joker, with a twisted grin, remarked:

"And what's the toll, Bruce?"

[Bryce gazed desperately at the dark seabed ahead, as if beholding another vast cemetery!]

[She triumphed, yet at the expense of innumerable souls drowned!]

[In this realm, besides her submerged forces, no other souls endure!]

[In the abyssal depths, Bryce illuminates the bat signal that symbolizes her existence!]

"But that emblem no longer signifies Batman!"

[It signifies the submerged souls of the deceased and her solitary stance here!"]
