"Barry! How's the evacuation going?!"

"The people in the third and fourth blocks have all been evacuated!"

"Alfred, prepare to activate the energy shield. I'm going to keep Steppenwolf pinned down in these two blocks!"

Bruce Wayne has now changed into the uniform of the Guardians of Gotham, and the Batman, who should be moving in the darkness, is now forced to reveal itself in the sunlight.

"Bruce, be careful. This guy is much stronger than last time."

Wonder Woman Diana, the main damage dealer, was forced to retreat under Steppenwolf's attacks, her surging divine power barely enough to keep her from being knocked Steppenwolf.

"I saw it." Bruce Wayne's face was grim, his dark eyes fixed on Steppenwolf's intact arms.

"You are no match for me, Amazon."

"Hand over the Mother Box, and I might give you a quick death."

Steppenwolf looked down at the shattered city below, Gotham, America's most notorious crime city, crumbling under his absolute power.

Batman, the guardian of Gotham, is powerless to do anything about it.

"Hey, look at this big guy!"

Barry Allen, having evacuated everyone from the entire block from the danger zone, hurled a Flash bolt at Steppenwolf.

Those were the skills he had acquired under Bruce Wayne's tutelage over the past few days.

It is also his only offensive tactic so far.

"Sizzle..."

The blue Flash boomerang pierced Steppenwolf's armor, serving no purpose other than drawing the latter's attention to Barry Allen.

"You are too weak."

"In fact, you still can't keep up with my speed."

Bang!

The giant axe cleaved the ground, tearing apart the skyscraper behind Barry Allen in an instant, like a ferocious beast baring its fangs and claws!

Boom!

One of Gotham's former landmark buildings has collapsed!

"Barry!" Diana, who arrived late, searched for her teammates.

"Ahem, I'm here."

Wearing a red uniform, Barry Allen fiddled with the Flash symbol on his chest and waved to Diana.

"Alfred!"

"Energy conversion is still in progress, Mr. Bruce. It will take another three minutes."

Inside the Batcave, the butler Alfred looked at the progress bar on the computer screen, his tone somewhat helpless.

Steppenwolf's attack was truly too sudden. If Bruce Wayne hadn't been prepared, the entire Gotham City would probably have been destroyed.

"Three minutes? I understand."

Bruce Wayne raised his gun, the black muzzle aimed at Steppenwolf, and the moment he pulled the trigger, a hundred bullets fired at once!

"Diana! Barry! Hold him off! Three minutes!"

"Just stall him for three minutes!"

Bang bang bang bang!!!!

Dense energy bullets wove together in mid-air, creating a net that completely enveloped the Steppenwolf wielding giant axes.

The special energy bullets, designed specifically for the Apokolips Armor and Steppenwolf's physique, caused Steppenwolf to stagger backward uncontrollably!

"What?!"

"Impossible!"

"How could mere human weapons possibly be capable of this?!"

Steppenwolf, who had completely disregarded Bruce Wayne, the Batman, suffered a great loss.

The opening he made as he staggered backward was seized upon by the perceptive Diana, who immediately secured his ankle with a golden rope. Pulling hard, Steppenwolf collapsed to the ground.

"Barry! Now!" Bruce Wayne got into his Batmobile and unleashed a barrage of weapons representing the pinnacle of Earth's advanced technology.

Rumble!!!

The vehicle-mounted mini-missiles made of special materials blasted the Steppenwolf so hard it saw stars!

"Clear!"

Barry Allen, with a speed that Steppenwolf could never match, grabbed the ropes shot out from the Batmobile and tied them directly to Steppenwolf's limbs.

Clang!

Four alloy tentacles suddenly emerged from the chassis of the Batmobile, sinking directly into the ground to secure the vehicle.

"Diana!"

Bruce Wayne, after getting off the Batmobile, shot Steppenwolf in the forehead, and Diana followed closely behind, plunging her sword into Steppenwolf's chest!

"Ah!!!!!"

The furious roar was deafening, and the struggling Steppenwolf was horrified to find itself unable to break free of the ropes binding it.

"How! Is this possible!"

Buzz!

The Batman- shaped drone streaked across the sky, dropping canned goods that instantly transformed into roadside holdouts, radiating beams of energy.

Three minutes have passed.

Crimson energy rays intertwined into a net, which, under Alfred's control, enveloped the howling Steppenwolf, instantly ripping apart its armor originating from Apokolips!

The power of Earth's cutting-edge technology is terrifying!

Steppenwolf could never have imagined that he, fully restored, would be defeated by a mere human?

What kind of bizarre technological methods are these?

The attacks, one after another, forced Steppenwolf to be restrained at every turn.

The Bruce Wayne in his uniform now is a completely different person from the helpless Bruce Wayne on the beach earlier.

"Incredible!"

"Bruce, how did you do that?"

Barry Allen, completely at ease, dispelled the Speed Force from his body and arrived beside Bruce Wayne. He looked at Steppenwolf, who was trapped and unable to move by the energy net, and his eyes were full of surprise.

"With my superpowers." Bruce Wayne activated his communication device.

"Alfred, what are the parameters?"

"Everything is as you predicted, Master Bruce." Inside the Batcave, Alfred glanced at the Steppenwolf's arm, which had withered to the point of almost resembling a "twig" due to various experiments, and said with a smile.

To prevent Steppenwolf from reappearing, the arm that Steppenwolf had his arm broken by Beckett, a descendant of the Titans, has suffered a lot.

"So, in just a few days, you found a method and means to deal with Steppenwolf from that severed arm?" Diana glanced at Bruce in surprise.

How much did it cost?

"Not much, maybe seventeen or eighteen billion US dollars." Bruce Wayne swiped the electronic device connected to the Batmobile.

"What???" Barry Allen's hand trembled in shock, and he almost accidentally fired his gun.

This left him with his gun on the ground, unsure whether to pick it up or not.

"Alfred, adjust the parameters, I need—well, I think I don't need to now..."

Bruce Wayne, who was planning to inject Steppenwolf with a special sleeping potion, witnessed a scene he would never forget.

Suddenly, a brown teleportation array appeared in the sky above Gotham City, and a dazzling brown beam of light slanted down from the sky, stretching across the heavens and the earth!

Within the pillar of light, a gigantic phantom with an indistinct face sat upon a throne, two terrifying energy beams bursting forth from its pupils!

Boom!

It begins at the location of Steppenwolf and ends at Arkham Asylum.

Most of Gotham was reduced to ruins in an instant!
