Although he had obtained a lot of information from Isaac, Karen, and Helena, it was still not enough for Batman. So he ultimately did not agree to the Teen Titans' plan to target Atom, but instead planned to use her as bait.

Compared to Atom, whose true identity is already known and who is out in the open, Batman is more concerned about the unseen agents, since these shadowy figures can pose a more serious threat and cause more damage.

However, there was one thing that bothered Batman a little: despite the many things that had happened recently, including people from other worlds coming to visit.

However, their spacetime monitoring system, which was specifically designed to monitor people from other worlds, did not react at all, and the guy in charge of managing and maintaining the system did not give any feedback either, which inevitably made him a little suspicious.

"The Teen Titans will continue to receive Deathstroke's training as usual. I will notify you if there are any missions."

Many complicated thoughts flashed through Batman's mind, but his expression remained largely unchanged. He maintained his calm demeanor and gave a low, composed reply to the Teen Titans' next instructions.

Batman had originally planned to assign the Teen Titans several missions related to the Illuminati, but after learning that another Earth was about to invade, he decided to temporarily put the Illuminati issue aside.

Although the Illuminati are also their enemies, whether the Justice League wins or the Illuminati wins, this Earth still belongs to them because it is a civil war among the people of this Earth. However, if the criminal syndicate invades, it will be a completely different situation.

Faced with Batman's decision, Isaac and Dick nodded slightly, agreeing on behalf of the Teen Titans members. After all, training was for better handling of crises, just as the saying goes, "Sweat more in peacetime, bleed less in wartime."

"Everyone, how about we have a barbecue dinner together at the base tonight? Besides welcoming our three new members, it'll also be our first team building activity as the Teen Titans."

After sending Batman and Superman, the two Justice League bigwigs, away, Isaac and Dick exchanged a glance. Isaac then stepped forward and loudly announced to the Teen Titans members who were chatting in small groups.

This was something Isaac and Dick had discussed beforehand. After all, the Teen Titans team had only been formed recently, and apart from some members who had worked together before, they hadn't had much contact with each other and hadn't carried out missions together.

So, in order to help the members of the Teen Titans get to know each other better, Isaac and Dick decided to throw a barbecue party, which was the best way to get everyone together quickly.

"Great! I agree!"

As the most lively and outgoing member of the Teen Titans present, Warren jumped up excitedly first, expressing his strong support for Isaac's barbecue party proposal.

"A barbecue party sounds pretty good, so Helen and I went."

Among the Teen Titans present, besides Dick and Helena, Karen, the most mature in mind, thought for a moment with her super brain and immediately understood the purpose of Isaac's suggestion. She then stepped forward and, smiling, signed herself and Helena up.

After Wally and Karen took the lead in signing up, the other Teen Titans members followed suit, expressing their desire to join the barbecue party. Even Artemis, who didn't seem to fit in, eventually signed up after being pulled along by the Martian girl, Megan. "Ahem, well then, Connor, Wally, and Billy, the three of you go out and buy the ingredients. Let's choose the beach at Mount Justice as the party venue. I'll leave the setup to you."

After clearing his throat twice and clapping his hands to draw the attention of the Teen Titans back to him, Isaac continued to explain the arrangements for the barbecue party, and also invited three people to join him as purchasing agents.

The Teen Titans had no objections to Isaac's arrangements. After watching him and Connor disappear into the sonic boom, they began preparing the party decorations.

——————————————————————————————————————————

Just as Teen Titans were excitedly preparing for their barbecue party, the Grid, which was lurking in Cyborg's body and subconsciously influencing him to steal Justice League data and coordinate with outsiders to carry out their scheme, also received news that two criminal syndicate villains who had traveled to Nashville had been dealt with.

Because Batman is so terrifying, the Grid is worried that he will discover the anomalies and has been subconsciously influencing Cyborg, causing him to spend most of his time in the Star Labs in Detroit, except for necessary Watchtower duty and Justice League operations.

Although the Grid itself is just a computer program, it has gained human emotions and self-awareness due to the influence of Atom's virus, and naturally it will also feel fear, especially towards a certain old bat.

"They found out so quickly? Looks like we need to speed things up."

Having taken over control of Cyborg's body and put him into a dormant state, the Grid suddenly spoke to itself after checking what had happened in Naxinno City a few days ago.

As he spoke, the sensor in the center of his forehead, which had turned green, flashed a few times, as if reflecting his current emotions.

After a moment's thought, a text message was sent out from the body of the Grid that had taken over. The other eight supervillains, including Atom, who had also arrived in this world and had taken over the roles of their counterparts under his and the Outsider's arrangement, all stopped what they were doing after receiving his text message.

Thanks to the outsiders' recent activities, they have successfully discovered Pandora's Box, which arrived in this world ahead of schedule. Once this item absorbs enough power, they can open a portal to the world and allow the entire Crime Syndicate to descend directly into this world.

However, this thing is currently contained by the Sky Eye Society in the United States, which is responsible for handling superhuman affairs. It would be a bit troublesome for them to retrieve it.

However, the Grid, having discovered something interesting from the Sky Eye, plans to use these supervillains to muddy the waters, attracting the Justice League and the Teen Titans, and then take advantage of the chaos.
