Earth 0 also known as Prime Earth was by far one of the most powerful universes out there, this universe was home to a Superman with might allowing him to face True Form Darkseid if he Sundip. This universe was the most powerful, yet filled with the most opportunities to get so many powerful beings to our side.
Now, a few things to note about the Superman of Earth 0. He had pretty much lost his weakness to Kryptonite, although Magic is still effective against him, it's not by much. He is a whole new beast, who has his ears open at all times to protect his world.
For this reason, Batman was the only one who could go to Earth 0 since he was the only one with the skills to get around Superman's senses... although even he had to stay far from Earth 0 Superman to be safe.
Lex of course wasn't so easy to get to, he was a careful person to reach... but Batman after reading so many comics got to know so much about Lex Luthor it wasn't a problem for him. Batman went on to transform into Lex and just walked into his office, bypassing all the guards, while those who were confused since Lex Luthor was in his office found themselves not caring enough.
This was a creation of Kenjaku, the Ring Of Minding Your Own Business. Wearing this ring would force many who wanted to get into your business to find it hard to put things together as to why they should. It even affected A.I., so Lex who was in his office didn't know anything was off until Batman entered his office.
"What is the meaning of this?" Lex's eyes narrowed while standing up, and with a simple look, he realized this was bad. For one, that creepy smile slowly growing on his counterpart's face was a give-off. Even without that, the rings his counterpart had on was also a giveaway,
He pushed for the alert button, but he quickly found all forms of tech in his office were not working the way they should.
"Sorry Lex, but I don't have time to waste talking to you." Turning back to himself, Batman laughed evilly, sending a chill down Lex's spine. Lex was given zero time to even talk, before Batman shot forward at superhuman speed, a speed which Batman should never be able to reach... well, this Batman was enhanced with Superman genetics.
But this Lex wasn't a normal human, as shockingly he had superhuman capability, giving him time to quickly try and combat Batman while calling for help... but who was more skilled than Batman in combat?
Lex was pushed backward, right into the portal that opened behind him. There, Lex fell before a golden man... at least that's the word that should be used to describe him seeing how much he shines.
"Where am I? Who are you!" Lex asked fully on guard while looking at Gilgamesh who was opening portals that led to different multiverses, just to close it when the multiverse wasn't to his liking.
"My lord, my task is complete. I shall head to the Dark Multiverse." Batman said to which Gilgamesh looked over towards him. Gilgamesh allowed Batman to leave, which Batman did after a respectful bow.
"Nice job," Gilgamesh said as his gaze landed on Lex, and as soon as it did, Lex fell to his knees, unable to withstand the might of Gilgamesh's gaze... no, his body could easily handle Gilgamesh's gaze, it was his soul which was having a hard time.
"You have a strong mind, I guess you're not one of the smartest people across the multiverse for nothing," Gilgamesh said calmly, seeing how the Ruler's ability didn't take effect instantly. Instead, it took its time, destroying Lex's hopes of ever fighting back, until Lex gave up. The Ruler's ability went on to take over not just his mind, but his heart.
"You would return to your world like nothing happened, but from time to time, when it would not catch anyone's attention, you're to bring people here. Be it other villains, to even heroes if possible. While not doing that, do whatever you were doing. Completely forget I exist, and only remember me when it's possible to bring people to me." Gilgamesh said to which Lex nodded respectfully.
"When people come asking you to join their army to combat me, or even anything related to me. You shall forget everything related to me. From there, you shall act how the normal Lex would normally act before such a thing." Gilgamesh said to which Lex nodded calmly, and with that he left, a Kenjaku would be looking over Lex.
Meanwhile, Batman joined with the female Furies had appeared in one of the countless Dark Multiverses. Batman was currently going through the computer, getting the information on this multiverse, and as he gained the knowledge from this multiverse he laughed.
"This multiverse seems to follow Injustice, but in this Multiverse, Superman has the Red Ring and Yellow Ring... well, that gets us the yellow and Red Lantern ring," Stompa said lightly while looking at the computer which showed the hell Superman brought to Earth. An evil tyrant who ruled the world with an iron fist, the Earth's population had dropped to a shocking 1.2 billion, when it was over a billion people.
He killed everyone who stood in his way, even Darkseid fell at Superman's hands. Superman was the strongest being in the multiverse, easily Galaxy level.
"You say that as if it's going to be easy to take him down," Aurelie said with a deep frown seeing the battle between Superman and Darkseid, a battle which destroyed countless planets across the galaxy.
"It's going to be easy," Batman said while laughing at how easy all of this would be.
The Red Lantern Ring channeled the user's rage into power, As for the Yellow Lantern Ring it channeled the power of fear, turning fear into power.
Thanks to Earth fearing Superman, his power had reached a newfound peak... no, the whole universe feared Superman. So one could guess just why he had reached Galaxy level, adding his unmatched level of rage for the death of his wife and newborn... well, Superman was unstoppable.
"What's the plan?" Aurelie asked while looking at her sisters, wondering if they should try and flee... but that would be foolish to flee into this universe.
"Well, we simply take the rings off him... Well, let's go meet him. He would be easy to get to join us." Batman said with an evil laugh while getting up. This left the Female Furies uneasy, they didn't have any curse technique or anything of the like to shield them from such a powerful Superman.
Batman stepped outside and went on to call Superman by his real name, he did it in a low voice, at a frequency he was sure Superman would pick up on. As expected, Superman soon flew over after 3 seconds, Superman's clothing was a mix of Red and Yellow.
"... You're not of this universe," Superman said with crossed arms, landing before Batman and the Furies.
"Indeed, I came to offer you the opportunity to travel the multiverse. In my multiverse, the Joker killed my newlywed wife... it was then I opened my eyes, and it was then I removed my no-kill rule. I want to put together a Justice League of the Multiverse, one willing to do the task other versions of the Justice League are too weak to do." Batman said with a grin, instantly moving Superman with those words.
"A justice league of the multiverse..." Superman said lost in thought at the idea.
"Yes, the hatred I feel knowing that the Joker is still out there and that other parallel version of myself is too weak to end that clown life... let's work together to prevent our pain from spreading, we shall become the true Justice League, a force without equals." Batman laughed to which Superman nodded, slowly agreeing with the whole concept.
"But you remind me a lot like that clown," Superman said as his eyes glowed red, batman eyes widened while jumping backward, jumping into a portal that suddenly opened, and also pulled the females in.
"Close the gate!" Batman cried, but Superman burst into the Portal before it could close, just for Superman to pause to find himself in a throne room.
"Great work batman," Gilgamesh said while looking at Superman, who found his power rings not working in this world. The Emotional Electromagnetic Spectrum didn't exist in this multiverse, leaving the power rings useless.
"Who are you?" Superman asked with narrowed eyes, floating in the air. Gilgamesh just rested his head upon his fist, looking down upon the varmint who dared to stand before him.
With a thought, a Gate opened, shooting a spear forward. Superman wanted to dodge, but this spear couldn't be dodged for it instantly appeared before him, piercing Superman in the stomach.
Superman was sent rocketing far away, imprinting himself hard into the wall. He coughed up a mouthful of blood before he was allowed to fall to the ground as the spear returned to the treasury.
"This is why one man can't have too much power, a varmint who lost himself in his emotions," Gilgamesh said while a bunch of gates opened around Superman, Superman wanted to move, but he was too slow as a sea of weapons stabbed themselves into Superman's body.
Gilgamesh walked over towards Superman, where he paused before Superman, whose eyes glowed red before he shot a heat beam towards Gilgamesh. Gilgamesh didn't bother to block, hell Infinity wasn't even used, allowing the heat beam to hit him, just for all of the energy behind that attack to be absorbed.
Superman's eyes widened in shock, he looked into Gilgamesh's cold and indifferent eyes, realizing there was no way he was going to win today. As he realized he lost, the Ruler took effect, affecting both his mind and his heart. Once that was done, the weapons stabbed into his body turned into dots of golden light, returning to the Gate Of Babylon.
Gilgamesh snapped his finger, returning Superman to the peak of health. Gilgamesh went on to sit on his throne and went on to look down upon the varmint.
"Go ahead, you shall follow Batman's orders." He said to which Superman bowed in respect, a sight which left the female Furies moved by such a show of power. This should have scared them, the fact Gilgamesh just took away Superman's free will, but his charisma was taking effect.
"Leave, and bring me back good news," Gilgamesh ordered to which Batman bowed while leaving with Superman and the other Furies. With Superman who was pretty much the overlord of that universe, it would be easy for Batman to go on to do many more things. Adding how powerful Superman was, Planetary without the rings, and Galaxy level with the rings... well, let's say they have nothing to fear across the Dark Multiverse if they play smart.
"My lord, I have been thinking. Should your ability be used through us?" Kenjaku Prime asked while I looked at him in interest.
"If Superman can use the Ruler ability on those he defeats, and which in return would make them loyal to you, it would make things far easier for you," Kenjaku said while I thought for some time, before nodding in agreement...
