The moment Night Owl's fighter plane entered Gotham, Batman received the news.

His intelligent program has taken over the city's network, and now all the root servers here are under his control.

Not only that, he also has partial control over the commercial satellites under the Wayne Group.

This is because these key equipment are now unguarded. The person who originally helped Night Owl manage these things was Claw Dick, but now he is missing and even Batman can't find him.

Just like he couldn't find the Red Hood, the Bat Family members are always good at hiding.

As for Night Owl? He had no intention of hiding anything. He was the master of this city, and he came in openly.

Batman is now in the sewers of Gotham, which is the headquarters of the Joker Gang.

Because Gotham is close to the sea, in order to cope with possible tsunamis, typhoons and other severe weather conditions, its underground drainage system is extremely spacious, almost like another world.

A few years ago, under the leadership of the anarchist hero "Jester", the Joker Gang occupied Gotham's underground network and further expanded and transformed it. Now it has become a complete underground maze.

Even the power of the Court of Owls would find it difficult to penetrate here.

Night Owl had investigated this place before, but he found that if he wanted to explore it thoroughly, it might cost him a very high price.

The Joker Gang can rely on their familiarity with the place to set traps everywhere, and Night Owl will have to pay one precious claw after another to help him take the blame, which is totally not worth it.

If Dane saw this, he would exclaim, "Isn't this the legendary underground warfare? It's a good tactic for dealing with enemies with far better equipment than yourself."

In order to completely eliminate these "pests", Night Owl could not blow up the entire city with a bomb, and leaving behind ruins was completely meaningless to him.

Therefore, he thought of a way to lure the "Jester" out.

After the two sides had been entangled with each other for a long time, Night Owl pretended to claim that he could sign a treaty with the "Jester" to stipulate their respective territories and rights and responsibilities.

Although Gotham City was not liberated, it was already a milestone victory for the Fool and his men. After all, the beginning is always the hardest.

Although they knew there were risks, for the sake of possible peace, the Fool thought again and again and finally agreed to Night Owl's request and came to the ground to sign a contract with Night Owl.

But what they didn't expect...or what they expected but couldn't believe was that the moment the Fool walked out of the underground maze, Night Owl killed him and directly tore up their previous agreement.

The death of the organization's leader made many high-ranking members of the Joker Gang furious. They lost their minds and wanted to fight to the death with Night Owl, but they were surrounded and killed by the Claws led by Night Owl who were well prepared.

It was also at that time that the Court of Owls established its authority.

After losing their leader, the Jester, the Joker Gang lost more mid- and high-level forces in this battle, and Night Owl also achieved his goal.

He couldn't wipe out the Joker Gang, but he could destroy their faith and turn them from so-called rebels into rats in the gutter.

He stigmatized these former heroes and turned the Joker Gang into just another gang in the eyes of the public, making it extremely difficult for them to recruit new members. Only the last group of veterans were left hiding in the sewers, barely surviving.

Ever since the Jester was tricked out of the underground maze by Nite Owl and killed, the Joker Gang has been hiding here for a long time until the arrival of Batman.

Batman is a very patient man. In his usual style, he entered the underground maze alone.

This maze has countless entrances, and basically all the sewers in Gotham City can be directly entered, but there are not many exits.

Even Night Owl and his Sharp Claws, who had once surrounded and killed the Joker Gang, could not find out how many exits the maze had. They did not find even one.

This is also the reason why the Joker Gang has survived to this day.

Even so, it doesn't mean that there is no one guarding the depths of the maze.

In fact, in order to prevent anyone from accidentally sneaking into the base, there are always people patrolling the maze.

If it is an ordinary citizen who accidentally comes here, they will first spread the word to see if it is possible to develop that person into one of them.

If they can't, they will send the innocent citizen away. If they can, they will proceed to the second step and verify the person's identity.

If the identity is correct, then the Joker Gang will have a new member that has finally appeared.

But if it was discovered that this person was a spy, he would be executed on the spot, his body would be burned and poured into the sewer, and finally discharged into the sea.

Batman's trip is actually a bit risky, because his identity cannot withstand investigation at all, but it is obvious that he does not care about such danger.

With the help of technology and intelligence, Batman went deeper into the maze and was getting closer and closer to the exit.

As expected, he met someone who was patrolling there. What a coincidence, this was an acquaintance.

"Who are you?" Bane was wearing a mask and his voice was a little buzzing.

In this world, many of the original villains are actually decent characters, and Bane is one of them.

After the Fool's death, he and some of his remaining companions maintain this now precarious resistance organization.

"I want to see your leader." Batman did not answer Bane's question, but made a request instead.

This made Bain very unhappy, and he said, "I am the leader here."

Batman stared at him for a long moment before shaking his head and saying, "No, you're not."

Although Bane in the original world is big in size, he is a smart guy, but this one... is just big in size.

Bane felt a little angry when he heard his tone, but he did not take the initiative to attack because he knew his companions had arrived.

Next to Batman, the concrete wall suddenly exploded, and a huge crocodile rushed towards him and instantly hugged Batman with its arms.

It's the crocodile man!

Bain sneered and said, "I'll explain to you later what kind of person you are..."

But before he could finish his words, Batman had already started fighting back!

He stepped back with his heel and kicked Crocodile Man in the balls, causing him great pain, and then Batman broke the man's arms and broke free.

Bane was shocked and rushed forward to help, but Batman suddenly grabbed one of Crocodile's hands and threw him out, hitting Bane, and the two rolled into a ball.

"I have no intention of fighting you, so can we just stop?" Batman stood there, putting his hands into his cloak.

Both Bane and the crocodile man were very angry. You beat us all, and now you say you want to stop?

You wish!

This is also Batman's own fault. He has become accustomed to getting along with them like this in another world. He didn't react for a while. It was completely a conditioned reflex.

"Wait, I'm not here to cause trouble..."

"You are!"

Bane moved Crocodile Man's body away and rushed directly towards Batman.

In this world, he is also a very good fighter, so every move he makes is extremely brutal, and like Bane in another world, he possesses superhuman strength enhanced by venom.

But unfortunately, he met an enhanced version of Batman. Even Kryptonians could withstand the attack of his suit in a short period of time, let alone Bane who was just an enhanced man?

So Bane quickly fell into a disadvantage, and this was because Batman did not want to hurt him too badly and showed mercy, otherwise Bane would definitely not have been able to hold on for so long.

On the other side, the confused crocodile man recovered and rushed over to help, but Batman took out a bat dart from somewhere and threw it in front of the crocodile man.

Immediately afterwards, a huge sound wave rang out throughout the sewer, and the crocodile man fell to the ground in an instant with a look of pain on his face.

Bane was also stunned by the sonic shock for a moment, and Batman found an opportunity to subdue him with one blow. He put Bane aside, then picked up the dart stuck in the ground and melted it back into his suit.

But at this moment, a pistol was pointed at the back of Batman's head.

"Don't move, raise your hands and stand up slowly!"

It was a woman's voice, Batman thought.

Although he was not afraid of bullets, he was not here to cause trouble, so he raised his hands as requested by the person behind him and slowly stood up.

"I told you, I'm not here to cause trouble. I just want to meet your leader."

"We don't have a leader here. The Fool has been killed by the Night Owl."

Batman tried to turn around, but someone behind him shouted, "Don't move!"

"Maybe we can talk in person."

The person behind him seemed to smile, and then another voice came: "If you are willing to take off your mask, then I can meet you face to face."

Batman thought for a moment, and suddenly his helmet dispersed into nanoparticles and flowed down, revealing his true face.

This is not his Gotham, so hiding his identity is not a necessary option. If this can gain the trust of the organization, the deal can be done.

The man behind him seemed surprised, and after a moment, Batman felt the pistol leave the back of his head.

"You can turn around now."

Batman turned around when he heard that, and was stunned when he saw the other person for the first time.

"Selena..."

The woman in front of him was none other than Catwoman Selina, but she was no longer wearing her cat costume. Instead, she was wearing a leather uniform that was covered in countless dust.

Even so, it still did not damage her appearance.

Catwoman frowned upon hearing this and once again raised her pistol to point at his brow.

"Who are you and why do you know my name?"

She was sure that she had never seen the man in front of her, nor had she seen this face.

Batman introduces himself: "I am Batman."

Bats? Okay.

Catwoman then said, "Your real name, be honest and don't lie!"

Batman was silent for a moment, then finally said, "Bruce Wayne."

"Bang"--!

A bullet passed by Bruce's ear and grazed his face.

Catwoman said expressionlessly, "Sorry, my hand slipped."

Then more members of the Joker Gang came out from the depths of the maze, and Bruce saw some familiar people inside.

The Riddler, Scarecrow, Two-Face, Penguin... These are people without super powers who survived the Nite Owl's purge.

"Question 1: Assuming you're not lying, why is the dead Bruce Wayne here?"

"Question 2, based on question 1 being true, are you and Night Owl in the same group?" The Riddler stared at Bruce up and down.

The Joker Gang and Night Owl had been fighting for so long that they had already figured out his true identity, but even so, they were powerless to do anything to him.

Adding a little Thomas Wayne identity only made him more difficult.

Because they will find that the other party has no flaws and all his family members are dead, so he will not be threatened.

But the man in front of him called himself Bruce Wayne. Could it be that he was not actually dead?

So what can he bring to the Joker Gang?

Bruce put his mask back on before answering everyone: "I've already told you my true identity. Now I want to hear your thoughts. How do you plan to deal with Night Owl?"

"You think we would tell you this? The Wayne family is trash!"

Bronze Tiger in the crowd roared and rushed forward, as if he had a deep hatred for Batman.

"Wait!" Catwoman suddenly stopped him, causing Bronze Tiger's attack to be stuck halfway. If he hadn't been so skilled, he would have fallen flat on his face.

"Catwoman, what are you doing?"

Catwoman looked at Batman for a long moment before she said, "Can I take what you just said to mean that you're on our side?"

Batman nodded: "You can think of it that way."

Everyone looked at each other in confusion, and Scarecrow asked the most important question: "How can we believe that you are not a spy sent by Night Owl?"

"Because I brought you a gift." Batman's voice was flat.

Everyone could sense from him a temperament similar to that of a night owl.

The Wayne family are all freaks! Many people cursed in their hearts, and at the same time felt an inexplicable fear.

Catwoman didn't have that feeling, perhaps because she caught the flash of surprise in Batman's eyes when he first called her name.

She always felt that the man opposite her knew her, not just an ordinary acquaintance, and they might have a deeper relationship... It was really strange, and this made Catwoman unable to feel hostility towards him.

"You said you had a gift, where is it?"

As soon as Catwoman finished speaking, the sound of something heavy falling to the ground was heard behind everyone.

Everyone looked back and saw that a man had appeared on the ground at some point. He was tied up all over and did not move.

The Penguin Man walked up with his short legs and turned the man's face to the light side.

"It's Alfred! Nite Owl's lackey!"

From the shadows, Red Hood stepped out, having been following Batman.
