Green Lantern! Bruce Yu!

In an instant, a blazing green energy beam shot out from the Rocket Launcher’s launch tube! Carrying the force of thunder, it struck Pig-Headed Green Lantern head-on!

With a deafening boom, the Rocket Launcher’s immense impact blasted Pig-Headed Green Lantern away.

Pig-Headed Green Lantern’s massive body arced through the air before crashing heavily in the distance!

Dedicated Tadpole Bro witnessed this, and his laughter abruptly stopped. His eyes widened round with disbelief!

At that moment, Chicken Green Lantern walked over while patting a basketball. "You actually passed the test directly."

Dedicated Bro put away his mocking expression and looked at Bruce Yu. "You are now officially a Low-Level Intern Soldier in the Green Lantern Corps."

As he spoke, he handed a green lantern to Bruce Yu. "Take your lantern. Now, you can return and protect your coordinate point!"

"Yeah, I can’t wait."

Green light enveloped Bruce Yu, and a wormhole formed beneath his feet once more.

But this time, he was not passively traveling through the wormhole. He was doing it willingly.

Chicken Green Lantern and Dedicated Bro watched Bruce Yu leave Oa Planet. Only then did Pig-Headed Green Lantern climb back up. "That kid’s imagination is truly extraordinary!"

The wormhole surrounding Bruce Yu leaped through the stars. Before long, it returned to Arkham Asylum, inside the glass cover that had held Bruce Yu for half a month.

With a pop, it spat Bruce Yu out!

Bruce Yu stood up and smashed the glass cover around him with one punch, allowing the poison gas inside to spread instantly. Batman swiftly put on his mask and stared at the Ultimate Opponent before him as if facing a deadly enemy!

"You! Where did you just go?!" Batman backed away again. Even though he had tried to figure out how to capture Bruce Yu again, he truly had not come up with anything. There had simply not been enough time.

"You! What exactly is that thing on your hand?! Why can it let you summon a wormhole?! Why has your body been restored?!"

Under normal circumstances, Batman would not merely recognize a Green Lantern Ring. He could even take a Green Lantern’s ring away.

Batman’s willpower was simply absurd. In some universes, he had even repeatedly refused a Green Lantern Ring.

Batman, who could refrain from killing and reject immense power, had already earned the recognition of the Green Lantern Ring. If he wanted to, he could become a Green Lantern at any time.

But Red Death was different.

Hearing Red Death Batman’s curiosity, Bruce Yu laughed instead.

"Heh. Hehehehe… I understand now."

Bruce Yu displayed his green ring. "You don’t recognize it because the you in this place… doesn’t have enough willpower."

"Of course, if your willpower were strong enough, you wouldn’t have become like this."

He looked at his reflection amid the shattered glass on the floor. "And I… wouldn’t have become this way either."

On the surveillance feed, Penguin, who had previously been urging Batman to viciously torture Bruce Yu, slapped his skeletal palms against the iron bars and roared into the corridor. "Get him!! Turn that bat brat’s brains into a milkshake! That damned bastard! Kill him!" His half-missing gold tooth glinted in the dim light. "Use that damn ring to smash his ass to pulp!"

Joker in the Adjacent Cell pressed his entire face against the cell door. "Hurry! Hurry! I want to see Batman’s cheekbones fly out of his ears!" He suddenly scraped his nails against the glass, producing a piercing screech. "But don’t kill him too quickly! Leave him for me! Ha~ If you do that, I wouldn’t mind giving you my wife—"

The entire asylum echoed with rising howls, the waves of sound nearly blowing the ceiling off.

Bruce Yu spread his hands. "Hear that? Everyone is celebrating your imminent plunge into the abyss. They’re as excited as if they’re watching a supervillain get taken out. Got anything to say?"

Batman shook his head fiercely. "No! They can’t get out! This will be their prison for life! You too!"

Bruce Yu looked at Batman, slowly shaking his head with mockery written across his face. "Look at yourself. Is there even the slightest trace of Batman left in you? Your heart is filled with fear and confusion. You lost the calmness and resolve a Batman should have long ago. You may have gained the Speed Force, but as far as I’m concerned, you’re weaker now than ever before."

His voice echoed through the asylum corridors, and the supercriminals immediately erupted into thunderous applause!

"Well said!"

"Fuck! This is exactly the feeling!"

"I’ll support this kid for the rest of my life!"

Hearing that, a flash of anger and resentment passed through Batman’s eyes. Just as he reached toward his waist to draw a special Batarang, he suddenly felt his whole body tighten. A cage emitting a ghostly green glow instantly enveloped him!

He looked up to see the green ring in Bruce Yu’s hand flashing as Bruce Yu looked down at him from above.

"This is your personal prison—the prison of willpower."

"Here, you will pay the price for your fall," Bruce Yu said coldly.

Batman let out an angry roar and instantly activated the Speed Force.

Empowered by the Speed Force, his figure turned into streaks of afterimages inside the cage as he frantically tried to break it open.

He hammered it with his fists and kicked it viciously, yet the green cage remained as immovable as indestructible steel.

Watching Batman struggle in vain, Bruce Yu shook his head again and gently consoled him. "Death purifies everything. Your death will be this world’s greatest comfort."

However, at that moment, an abrupt change occurred!

A Golden Light suddenly flared from Red Death’s body, and a bolt of lightning that even Bruce Yu’s Observation Haki could not foresee appeared in an instant!

Everywhere the lightning passed, everything around it seemed to have had a rewind button pressed and began rapidly reversing.

Bruce Yu’s cage was dismantled bar by bar, while he himself was pushed several steps backward by an invisible force!

The shattered glass cover restored itself piece by piece. The wormhole appeared again, and before Bruce Yu could react at all, he was sucked inside!

Everything returned to how it had been five minutes earlier. Red Death wore a face of utter disbelief, clearly having gained a new understanding of the Speed Force’s power.

However, after restoring the Timeline several times, Red Death Batman was dumbfounded!

He had initially thought that as long as he turned the Timeline back to before Bruce Yu acquired the Green Lantern Ring, he could change everything.

Yet no matter how he tried, that damned ring would still appear on Bruce Yu’s hand!

"Damn it!" Red Death roared, his voice filled with despair and fury.

He tried several more times, but the result remained the same.

Left with no choice, he realized he could no longer defeat Bruce Yu here. He could only activate the Speed Force, transform into a red bolt of lightning, and flee Arkham Asylum.

Bruce Yu, who had just fallen out of the wormhole, stood there with a bewildered expression.

After looking around, he arrived at an almost impossible conclusion.

"I scared Batman away?"

"Fine."

"Then!"

"Evil-doers, beware my light."

"Green Lantern’s light shines eternal, its glory everlasting!"

"Synchronization Ability!"

As soon as the words fell, he was answered by a busy signal.

"H-How could this be?!"

He tried opening the Chat Group. Just as he was about to mutter something, Pirate World Fang Yu said, "What did you synchronize?"

"The Green Lantern’s power!"

Standing in the desert, Pirate World Fang Yu raised his hand. "Take a guess. Would I have a Green Lantern Ring on my hand?"

Bruce Yu frowned. "You mean I was tortured by Batman for so long, and the Green Lantern Ring can’t be synchronized as an ability? This thing is an item?"

At that moment, Stephen Fang’s voice came through. "It’s fine. With a Green Lantern, there’s hope of obtaining the Emotional Spectrum. If you get the Green Will from the DC Universe, we’ll all become the strongest Green Lanterns."

"W-Wait!"

Pirate World Fang Yu, standing in the desert, suddenly looked at the carrot that had appeared in his hand. "Who stuffed this into my hand?! I only thought about Carrot’s face! And I also thought about…" As he spoke, a thin pair of white Ghost Underpants appeared in his hand. "And who stuffed this into my hand?!"

Uchiha Yu interjected, "I understand. It’s not that the ability wasn’t synchronized. Due to the world’s influence, the effect of gaining the ring’s ability is negligible."

Stephen Fang suddenly raised his hand. "Then I… am also from an American Comic World with Green Lantern—"

Before he could finish speaking, his entire body was sucked into a wormhole!

Once the wormhole journey ended, he was thrown onto a gray, empty planet with nothing around him!

Sure enough, a ring glowing with faint green light had appeared on his index finger!

"Where the fuck did this send me?! The Green Lantern Ring broke through the Dimensional Wall!?"

Bruce Yu let out a relieved breath, as though a burden had been lifted. "I understand. Marvel and DC have had comic crossovers, so the Dimensional Wall really can be broken!"
