Chapter 265 A Tragedy Caused by a Pajama

Bane's massive fist came hurtling in with a powerful gust of wind; even those watching from outside the training room could feel the force of the punch.

Outside the training room, Alfred held a coffee cup in one hand and a coaster in the other, his eyes fixed on the training area.

Seeing this, Dick Grayson couldn't help but feel a chill for Depp.

It has to be said that Bane's attacks were incredibly oppressive.

Alfred even doubted whether Bruce, fully equipped, could withstand that punch.

The zombies and cavemen standing nearby also wore smug expressions.

They knew their boss's strength all too well, and with the added power of this suit, let alone Depp, even a small building would be smashed to pieces with a single punch.

While those on the sidelines were preoccupied with their own thoughts, Depp didn't even glance at Bane, remaining motionless in his spot.

Bain sneered inwardly upon seeing this: "Little brat, could it be that because you didn't use that lightning-enhancing skill, you can't keep up with my speed at all?"

Then I won't be polite!

Last time, your back broke my leg, but this time, with Batman's high-tech suit, I, Bane, will knock out two of your teeth!

The next instant, Bane's fist made intimate contact with Depp's face.

At that moment, in Bane's eyes, the tremor of Depp's mouth caused by his punch was clearly visible.

Clearly, his punch had hit its mark without a doubt.

But...

Bain's mind raced. Why was Depp still standing there, motionless?

Shouldn't you have been punched away by me?

Depp turned to Bane with a half-smile and said something even a primary school student could understand: "Forces are reciprocal. You must be in a lot of pain right now, right?"

Before Bane could figure out how to refute Depp, a sharp pain shot through his finger.

It felt just like when Depp's back slammed into my thigh and broke it last time!

Bain immediately stepped back and touched his fist.

Fortunately, it was just pain. This time, thanks to the protective suit, my fingers didn't break.

But Bain immediately thought, just how tough is Depp?

Bane was certain that he wouldn't have been able to withstand that punch without his suit.

But Depp was standing there unharmed, while Depp was the one who was injured?

Not to mention that Depp isn't at his full power right now; he's suppressing and sealing most of his abilities.

Just how terrifying is Johnny Depp's strength?

The question involuntarily popped into Bain's mind.

Outside the practice room, Alfred breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the result and continued slurping his coffee.

Meanwhile, Dick Grayson jumped up excitedly and shouted at the zombies and the others, "Look at this, look at this! Your boss's fist doesn't seem that hard, does it? It seems that after this punch, Daddy Depp was fine, but your boss's hand is in a lot of pain and he keeps shaking it!"

Upon hearing this, the zombie turned to look at Dick, then proudly raised his bald head: "What do you know, kid? Force is reciprocal. Even our boss was swinging his arm, so you can imagine how powerful and terrifying that punch was."

Upon hearing this, Dick Grayson immediately covered his mouth and said, "Hehehe, oh yes, you're right, hehehe."

This half-smiling, half-mocking, highly sarcastic reply infuriated the zombies and the others.

But there's nothing we can do. Firstly, our team is currently in a reformed state and can't take any inappropriate retaliatory actions, not to mention that infuriating guy on the other side is both an ally and a child.

Secondly, their own boss Gang's attack had indeed failed, and they suddenly lost confidence.

However, although they knew that their leader might not be able to do it alone, they knew that Bane was not fighting alone!

The zombies and others put their hands together and muttered incantations as if in prayer.

Dick listened intently, and his superhuman hearing allowed him to immediately catch what the zombies were muttering.

"Go Batman! Team up with the boss and take Depp down!"

"Batman, you must be hiding your true strength. Go for it and take down Depp!"

"Batman, stop hiding! If you keep hiding, our boss is going to lose!"

Dick chuckled: "Well, you guys' gotten a bit superstitious. But... even Bane and Uncle Bruce combined are no match for Daddy Depp."

On the other side, Bane had just taken a few steps back when Bruce's attack followed.

Knowing Depp's terrifying physical abilities, Bruce did not choose close combat, but instead opted to harass him from a distance using batarangs.

Three batarangs flew toward Depp in a triangular formation. Depp caught two of them with both hands.

The third Batman-themed item whizzed past Depp's fingertips, heading straight for his head.

It must be said that when facing Depp, even Bruce, who had sworn not to kill him, had no choice but to use a deadly fighting style.

Bruce knew perfectly well that he could never kill Depp.

Upon seeing this, the crowd outside the stadium immediately cheered again.

Birdman laughed, "Well done, Batman! That dart has disfigured Depp!"

The caveman jumped up excitedly and shouted, "Whoosh! Batman is truly Batman! Not only can he wield two darts, but he can even fire three at once!"

Only the zombie noticed a faint red glow emanating from the batarang that had pierced through Depp's hands: "This is probably a batarang with explosive capabilities. Depp is in for a lot of trouble now!"

Alfred's mindset was similar to these three guys'. After all, this was his young master attacking Depp's young master, and Alfred naturally hoped that Bruce would win.

Only Dick Grayson clenched his fists, once again sweating for Depp.

As the third batarang drew closer, Depp opened his mouth wide and let out a "whoosh".

He then put the batarang in his mouth.

But as soon as it entered his mouth, Depp felt a slight, unusual vibration through his teeth and realized that it was an explosive batarang!

However, it was too late to spit this thing out now. A flash of light appeared, and a huge explosion and fireball spread outwards from Depp's mouth.

Bruce shielded his eyes from the blinding firelight with his hand, a smile playing on his lips.

Although he knew this thing would never kill Depp, Bruce was still very satisfied that it could injure him.

Outside the arena, the crowd that witnessed this scene immediately began to discuss it animatedly.

"See? I told you it was an exploding batarang!"

"This time Depp will have to open his mouth early. With such power, even the boss would have his brain blown to pieces."

Even if Depp is incredibly resilient, his mouth should at least be blown apart, right?

"Damn, I used to think Batman was a gentleman, but I never expected him to be such a cunning old fox!"

Upon hearing this, Alfred took a sip of coffee and said, "Quiet, sit down. This is just basic stuff for the young master. How could he not use underhanded tactics when fighting those shameless guys every day?"

However, although Alfred said that, he still gave his young master a thumbs up in his heart.

Being able to outwit Johnny Depp is already a huge success!

However, all this excitement and noise seemed to have nothing to do with Dick Grayson standing to the side.

He called out anxiously into the room, "Daddy Depp!"

Upon hearing this, Alfred gently patted Dick's shoulder and comforted him, "Don't worry, with Depp's superhuman physique, he'll be fine. I estimate it'll just be a little bleeding gums at most."

“Really?” Dick Grayson asked.

Although he knew his father was ridiculously strong and capable of everything, he had never seen Depp get blown up by a bomb before, so he was somewhat worried.

Alfred nodded, his expression reassuring: "Really, don't worry!"

As he spoke, Alfred recalled the time when Depp and Bruce fought in the old training room.

At that time, Depp forced Bruce to directly bombard him with small missiles, but he was still unharmed.

In the practice room,

The heat wave made Bain feel a bit hot.

The warm air stabilized, the sandstorm subsided, and the figure in the dust and smoke still stood straight in place.

The artificial airflow created by the indoor ventilation system blew the last wisp of dust into the distance, and Depp's figure finally appeared before everyone's eyes.

Let alone things like a blown-out head, a rotten mouth, or bleeding gums.

There wasn't even the slightest scratch on Depp's mouth.

Completely unharmed, with his stunningly beautiful face and perfect physique, Depp looked like a god descended to earth.

Mysterious, powerful, and inviolable.

This is the feeling that suddenly arose in everyone's heart at this moment.

Dick Grayson said with a look of admiration, "Depp is truly a god-like figure!"

The zombie stammered, "Damn it, is this man glowing? He's even more blinding than the flames from the explosion!"

Alfred's expression froze for a moment, until the coffee cup and coaster in his hand fell to the ground and made a shattering sound, which startled everyone.

In the practice room, Bruce, who had seen Depp like this before, patted Bane, who was standing there dumbfounded.

"Stop spacing out, this guy looks a bit angry, he's probably about to retaliate."

Bain seemed to snap out of a daze and asked, "Chicken? What chicken?"

Bruce: "..."

Across from them, Depp was indeed somewhat angry, just as Bruce had said.

The reason was that although he himself was not afraid of the damage from the explosion, his pajamas were not.

Under the force of the explosion, Depp's pajamas and slippers were completely destroyed, leaving only a few tattered pieces of cloth still burning on his body, which were about to be swept away by the wind.

This is also why everyone can see Depp's perfect physique.

"Bruce, that's my favorite set of pajamas!"

Depp spoke slowly and deliberately.
