Amid the vibrations of the helicopter rotor, a man was shouting at the top of his lungs.

"Attention everyone, the search will begin at the epicenter of the explosion and proceed in a spiral pattern."

Someone countered, "Hou Lei Shift, that's the Mother of All Bombs! The boss saw that enormous mushroom cloud too, what are we looking for?"

The leader retorted, "Pay attention to the tiny marks on the ground, especially anything that looks like teeth. Even with a powerful explosion, how could it possibly shatter all the teeth?"

One of them said angrily, "Damn it, we're Esper Powers! Why are we being made to do this kind of corpse-collecting work? Wouldn't it be better to hire some Forensic Doctor?"

The boss laughed loudly, "Can Forensic Doctor really tell us what a Shattering Human Body looks like?"

The nine of them burst into laughter.

However, the next moment, they discovered that the machine was fighting wildly, and two people were thrown out on the spot.

What's frightening is that the people thrown out didn't fall downwards, but instead flew forward with tremendous speed, like cannonballs.

Immediately afterwards, the plane accelerated wildly, and just one second later the rotor broke off, turning the Black Hawk helicopter into a cannonball.

When the helicopter landed in front of Shazo, only the main frame remained, and the frame was covered with pits due to the uneven distribution of Electromagnetic Force.

From within this completely destroyed machine, a burly man suddenly stepped out. His bone and muscle density far exceeded normal levels, clearly indicating that he was a superhuman with Physical Enhancement Esper Powers.

But the enraged Esper Powers individual froze completely the moment he saw Shazo: "You, you're not dead?"

Shazo sneered, reached out and grabbed him from the cabin, then shoved his neck directly into Shazo's hand.

Shazo Zuo shouted, "Now think about it! Who are you? What is your identity? And who ordered you to come here?"

Two seconds later, a simple search of his shallow memories and thoughts confirmed that this guy was a simple-minded person, and also revealed that he was a bloodthirsty bastard with a penchant for torture and killing.

Without a shred of mercy, Shazo snapped the burly man's neck and tossed him onto the other two corpses behind him. Then he grabbed the next Esper Powers and repeated the same question.

It wasn't until the sixth Esper Powers individual that Shazo found the leader of the Esper Powers team and also obtained the information he sought about the judges of the Court of Owls.

"As expected of the court's directly subordinate super-powered combat team, they really know a lot."

With a sinister grin, Shazo snapped the neck of the Death Cross Squad leader and then used magnetism to mold the Black Hawk helicopter fuselage into a metal lump.

He had lost patience to continue the investigation. Since all six people were bloodthirsty villains, the remaining three Esper Powers individuals were definitely not innocent Byakuren.

After doing all this, Shazo realized that Batman was gone.

Shazo exclaimed in surprise, "Hey, this kid runs really fast."

"No, it's not that he runs fast, it's my problem. I forgot to label this kid, and once I'm focused on something, I naturally overlook him."

"So that's how it is. Even though I can handle batch processing of Big Data, it actually has this hidden flaw."

"Alright, he's already suffered enough today. Let him recover, lest he turn into a dark, bat-like monster."

"Hehe, why do I feel like the corrupted bat is really fun? Or maybe the laughing bat is good too?"

"Oh, I'm mentally ill? Never mind then."

Shazo looked at the surrounding frozen Forest, then suddenly raised his hands high. "You trash, feel the terror of Chakra! After all, you are not worthy to enjoy the power of 'ki' and Cosmo!"

[Wood Release: Dionysus Wood Golem]

The frozen Forest began to tremble, the trees shook off the frost, and pulled their roots from the frozen ground, paying no heed to the broken roots that had fallen into the earth.

The trees grew closer and merged with each other, stacking themselves higher and higher until a wooden figure, 18 meters tall, with broad shoulders, a thick waist, a protruding belly, and carrying a huge wine Wood Golem, appeared before Shazo's eyes.

Shazo then jumped onto the head of the Wood Golem god Dionysus and directed it to a Church on the outskirts of Gotham City, where the Court of Owls was located.

Based on information from the leader of the Esper Powers squad, Shazo tracked the electromagnetic signal channel and located this unremarkable little Church.

The enormous Wood Golem weighs over 300 tons, and each step it takes leaves a footprint up to a meter deep.

Because of its extremely long stride, Wood Golem Dionysus figure walks very fast, reaching speeds of up to 60 yards per minute.

Moreover, the Wood Golem Dionysus can navigate through streets and alleys, step over residential buildings, and cross highways, so it only took a few minutes to cover a small portion of the distance.

After the massive Wood Golem Dionysus figure had been roaming freely for ten minutes, half of Gotham City was already in an uproar and chaos.

The media reporters, who had sprung into action because of the mushroom cloud explosion, were also drawn to the Wood Golem; after all, this was the United States, where explosions were commonplace.

No matter how large the explosion, unless it's a nuclear explosion, what could be more captivating than a magical Wood Golem?

The reporters immediately turned around and started snapping photos of the Wood Golem.

Not only journalists, but countless others drove cars and motorcycles, following in the footsteps of the Wood Golem and frantically spreading their discoveries.

Soon, the giant Wood Golem Dionysus figure occupied all the major television stations, and despite it being late at night, the ratings soared to unprecedented heights.

As the television station's helicopter arrived, from its vantage point, it was easy to spot Shazo atop the Wood Golem, sparking great curiosity among the people.

Helicopters also followed the Wood Golem's straight walking path to the place where Wood Golem was born, only to be bombed and burned there.

The frozen appearance was astonishing.

Countless people gasped in astonishment after witnessing this scene on television.

Christian: "God! Is this a myth descending to earth?"

The original believer exclaimed, "This is nature's wrath! This is the Druid ' punishment!"

Muslims say, "God is great, and this is your warrior!"

Harley Quinn and her friends had just completed a blatant "theft," and because the police who had been chasing them turned and left, they curiously turned around and chased after the police instead.

When the police arrived at the scene, the three women were stunned to see the Wood Golem moving like a building.

Harley Quinn had half her body sticking out of the car window, staring intently at the Wood Golem, making meaningless noises.

Poison Ivy was even more shocked than Harley Quinn. As a plant enthusiast and a terrorist who pursued nature, she swore she had never imagined plants could be so powerful.

More importantly, that Wood Golem was alive!

Even from several kilometers away, Poison Ivy sensed the Wood Golem's surging life force, as powerful as an entire Forest, truly like a Gods of nature.

Poison Ivy believed that this was the revitalization of the Forest, and she was determined to learn the divine skill to revitalize the Forest into a divine messenger. She absolutely had to!

The Catwoman's surprise lasted only a moment, replaced by fear, wariness, and resistance to approaching the Wood Golem.

Cats never like things that are too big.

Shazo became the focus of the world's attention, and he was very satisfied with it.

He's not Clark Kent; his body is 100% human, so there's no need to worry about fear arising from racial barriers. Shazo understands the meaning of deterrence better. He's neither a good person nor does he want to be seen as one. He wants to be Evil Person that everyone fears, Evil Person with principles but not a very high bottom line.

That way, people will avoid him and refrain from provoking him.

Not only will life become easier and more comfortable, but even when he wants to achieve his goals, he will make people fully consider their own safety, thus giving up more benefits.

Overwhelmed with pride, Shazo couldn't help but burst into laughter, urging the Wood Golem to run, each step causing the earth to tremble.

Arriving at the small Church, ignoring the warnings from the Cloak guards, he delivered a decisive punch, sending countless bricks flying and revealing the thick steel frame inside.

In that instant, countless discerning people realized that there was something wrong with this Church; beneath its simple, rough brick structure lay a steel fortress of the scale of Doomsday Bunker.

Whether it was the power of brainwashing, being forced into a corner, or innate courage, the Cloak guards pulled out their guns and opened fire on the Wood Golem.

The Wood Golem raised the wine barrel it was holding and poured it onto the ground.

The green liquid, like a flood, knocked all the guards to the ground. Before they could get up, the ground began to sprout and grow into large trees.

No, that's not a tree, that's a living Tree People.

When the Tree People grew to six or seven meters tall, it pulled its feet out of the ground and attacked the Cloak guards.

The size difference between the two sides was enormous, like that between a human and Monkey, yet the number of Tree People far exceeded that of the guards.

The Wood Golem god of wine paid no attention to the battle between the soldiers. He grabbed the steel frame with both hands, shook it with all his might, and then pulled it upwards with all his might. With a silent the Roar, he pulled the integrated Doomsday Fortress out of the ground and threw it horizontally on the ground.

Then the Wood Golem raised the barrel again and poured the green liquid into the fortress.

Just a few minutes later, six men with shiny hair and wearing tuxedos were pushed out of the doomsday fortress by the plants and thrown in front of the Wood Golem.

Shazo looked at the disheveled fellows with satisfaction, then threw his head back and laughed loudly, "Judges of the Court of Owls, you Nezumi have finally been caught by me."

"Are you simply going to die, or do you want to leave some last words?"

One of them tried to stand up, but due to the severe deformity of his legs, he failed several times. He simply lay on the ground and shouted, "Empty! You think you've destroyed the Court of Owls by killing us?"

You're dreaming!

"Fukurou are immortal, Court of Owls will be your Nightmare, haunting you until the day you die!"

Boom!!

The Wood Golem figure slapped the guy, merging him into the earth.

Shazo sneered, "A mere mortal dares to threaten me."

"What Fukurou being immortal! Don't you know that the ancient East University already cracked your game? I'll show you what ' Nine Clans Elimination Game ' really means!"

The other man swallowed hard, bowed deeply, and pleaded, "If I pledge my allegiance to you, will you spare my life?"

Shazo shook his head. "No."

His expression twisted, and he roared like a madman, "Are you really going to let us die?"

Shazo calmly replied, "Of course, it's not just you, but also your family, your Father-in-law and Mother-in-law, your brothers and sisters, including anyone Blood Relations can be traced back three generations. Anyone who has profited from your underground system must die."

"You, you demon! You devil!"

With a snap, the Wood Golem crushed him to death with a single finger, leaving a bloody trail more than ten meters long on the ground.

Shazo looked at the remaining four people and asked, "What were your last words?"

All four of them were so weak in the knees that they collapsed to the ground, trembling like leaves.

The first middle-aged fat man cried out, "No, don't kill me! Please don't kill me!"

Shazo: "No."

splat--splat-

This is a fat person, with a lot of flesh and even more fat, so the lines drawn on it are longer.

The second old man, seemingly more afraid of death, exclaimed, "I have money! I have so much money! I'll give it all to you, all of it!"

Shazo: "First of all, I don't need your money."

"Secondly, even if I kill you, your money will still be mine."

Finally, I think you've lived long enough.

The third one was also an old man, wearing a small round hat, shouting hoarsely, "Devil! I curse you, you will surely be punished by God— "

With a thud, the fourth old man's eyes rolled back, he fell backward, his heart suddenly stopped beating, and he was completely speechless.

Shazo waved his hand, manipulated the Wood Golem to stand up, and returned step by step along the same path.

At that moment, a reporter who was desperate for fame tied himself to a rescue rope and jumped from the helicopter, landing next to the Wood Golem's head.

Suppressing his discomfort and fear, the reporter grabbed the microphone and shouted to Shazo, "Sir, are you Kong, the serial killer who recently eliminated two major mafia families who withdrew from Gotham City?"

Shazo was amused by the reporter who was bungee jumping and swinging in a helicopter. He casually Electromagnetic Force to pull the guy back to prevent him from swinging too far.

After securing the reporter, Shazo replied, "That's right, I killed those Falcone and Maroni."

The reporter quickly pressed further, "Then why did you kill the gangsters? And who were those people you killed in such a high-profile manner today?"

Shazo replied, "I've been making a living in Gotham since I was a kid. When I was weak, I was bullied by gangs a lot. Now that I'm grown up and stronger, isn't it normal to take revenge?"

"The six people killed today were from Gotham City's legendary Court of Owls," or you could say, Gotham City's Shadow Government.

The reporter gaped. "Cat, Court of Owls?"

Fortunately, he was very polite and immediately steered the conversation back to the first question, "Mr. Kong, it was indeed pitiful that you were bullied by gangsters when you were a child, but you still grew up healthy."

"But your revenge nearly wiped out both families. Isn't that going too far?"
