Chapter 363 - Chapter 364 Batman and the Joker

"First, let's go find Batman."

The trio arrived in Gotham, where Gotham was eerily calm.

There were no robberies, no drag racing; everything was so peaceful.

Soon, they arrived at Wayne Manor.

The manor before them was like a forgotten corner of time, with weeds growing wild and vines like monstrous, fanged pythons crawling all over the walls.

"I told you, once Alfred is gone, your dad will become a giant baby who can't take care of himself."

Qinuo teased Damian.

"Godfather, he's not my dad."

Damian said helplessly, not knowing if the Damian of this timeline was male or female, but her eyes glanced at a hidden camera.

"Alright, Bruce, we've come to play with you."

Qinuo pushed open the manor gate with a casual air.

As they stepped across the threshold, a stale scent assailed them, and the dust-laden corridor was typical of a single old man's dwelling.

His super vision swept around, and the manor was empty; he looked down, realizing they were in the Batcave.

At this moment, inside the Batcave, a bearded Batman was sitting in front of a computer, the screen clearly showing the figures of the three.

The trio found the mechanism and took the elevator directly to the Batcave.

As soon as the elevator doors opened, several tear gas canisters were thrown in.

Qinuo raised his hand to catch them and took a deep breath.

The white smoke was inhaled, and in just one second, the tear gas canisters were sucked dry.

Then…

"Cough, cough, cough, damn it, I really am not suited for smoking!"

Qinuo coughed out wad after wad of gas.

Venom rolled her eyes speechlessly, reached back, and drew out all the inhaled gas.

"Serves you right for showing off. You can't even smoke, but you try to smoke gas. Now you're an idiot, aren't you?"

Batman was also stunned by Qinuo's bizarre move, and such an ability was clearly not something a human could possess.

An alien?

But he had no time to ponder; a light instantly glowed around Damian, a green battle suit appeared, and a glowing green blade materialized in her hand. She charged forward like a leopard, intending to test the strength of this World's Batman.

Batman reacted extremely quickly.

He pulled out a handgun from his waist and began to fire.

Ding, ding, ding…

Damian swung her blade, her movements agile, blocking every bullet aimed at herself and at Venom and Qinuo behind her.

Damian also confirmed that the Batman before her was not her father, Bruce Wayne; no matter how much he changed, her father would not use such lethal weapons.

Her swinging blade was also merciless; as long as he wasn't dead, Godfather could heal him.

"Is Damian, this girl, being raised astray?"

Qinuo tilted his head, watching. He had initially intended to raise a lady.

"A bit. It must be Talia who didn't raise her well initially."

Venom nodded in agreement. She was only responsible for playing. Pamela, being so elegant, couldn't have taught her astray. It must be Talia's fault.

"Hahaha, old bat, you're finally going to die. You should have died long ago, hahaha…"

A piercing laugh came from the darkness.

Qinuo turned to look.

In a cell, a green-haired woman was imprisoned, her face covered in thick, pale foundation, like a lifeless mask.

Crimson lipstick was smeared wantonly, and there were lacerations at both corners of her mouth, with black stitches.

"Joker?"

Qinuo and Venom exchanged a look and walked towards the cell.

"Don't go near her!"

Batman also noticed their movement, dodged a blade, and pulled out a smoke bomb from the table, throwing it to the ground to obscure his figure.

Damian charged forward with a slash, hitting nothing but air.

A strong hand grabbed Damian's wrist from behind, twisted it behind her back, and a gun barrel was pressed against her head.

"Don't move if you don't want to die. Don't make any small movements."

After speaking, Batman flicked Damian's Green Lantern Ring with a single finger, sending it flying far away.

He had long observed that this child's ability came from this ring.

"And you two, if you don't want your child to die, get away from there."

Batman's cold voice threatened.

"Godfather, I lost."

Damian looked disappointed, a tattoo on her ankle glowing faintly.

"Nonsense. Not creating planes and cannons, but playing close combat with Batman with a knife. You're not suited for the Green Lantern Ring. Go back and try Asgard's divine power."

Qinuo said nothing.

He had plenty of resources; if one didn't fit, he'd switch to another.

"Yes, Godfather."

Damian smiled, completely oblivious to the gun pointed at her head.

"Do you think I don't dare to kill people?!"

Batman's finger tightened on the trigger. He adhered to the "should kill" doctrine; in his eyes, any criminal deserved to die.

This was also why Gotham became the safest city in the U.S..

"I know you'll kill, but if you knew whose child she was, you'd never dare to pull the trigger."

Qinuo's words made Batman's movements halt.

He looked down at Damian's small face, a strange sense of familiarity welling up in his heart.

Qinuo also came before the cell, looking at the female Joker before him.

Although heavily made up and with hideous scars on her face, she still looked young and beautiful.

The Joker of this World is Martha Wayne. p1

Then Batman is Thomas Wayne. p2

"It was Bruce Wayne who died in that alley back then, not the Wayne couple."

Venom looked at the crazy woman before her with some pity. Like Bruce, she too had been trapped in that alley on that night.

"Shut up! My child isn't dead. He's waiting for me to save him. It's all this cowardly old bat's fault!"

Martha's eyes revealed a mix of madness and hatred, but soon she laughed again.

"But you're not going to say this child is the old bat's child, are you? You brought her to meet her relatives, hahahaha, this is too funny! Old bat, you've gotten yourself such a big daughter, is she here to replace little Bruce?! Hahahahaha…"

Martha let out a sharp, deranged laugh that echoed through the cold stone walls of the Batcave.

"Impossible. I've never been with any other woman, unless you took my blood and cloned her."

Thomas looked at Qinuo with murderous intent. This was a desecration of his son Bruce.

"Damian, introduce yourself to your Grandpa and Grandma."

Qinuo's words made Martha's laughter cease and froze Thomas's hand, which was about to pull the trigger.

Damian also understood who this old bat and Joker were.

"Grandpa, Grandma, nice to meet you. My name is Damian Wayne. My father is Bruce Wayne, and my mother is Talia al Ghul."

The entire Batcave was silent, with only Thomas's heavy breathing.

——

p1: Mental Breakdown: In the Flashpoint Universe, it was their son Bruce who died in the Crime Alley incident. This blow caused Martha to have a mental breakdown, eventually turning into the Joker.

Revenge and Madness: As the Joker, Martha blamed her husband Thomas for her son's death. Filled with resentment and madness, she orchestrated a series of events behind the scenes, even kidnapping everyone who would become a time traveler, forcing them to create a time-travel machine.

p2: Originally, in the Wayne family ambush incident, it was Thomas's son Bruce who died, which led Thomas down the path of becoming Batman.

Unlike the traditional Batman, Thomas had no concern for the lives of criminals and no no-kill rule. Criminals like Killer Croc and Hush all died by his hand.

His wife Martha, unable to bear the grief of losing her son, smeared her son's blood on her lips and became the Joker.
