Chapter 1398 Self-Inflicted Evil

Bradlow had a strong sense of déjà vu. It seemed that he had experienced this situation countless times, where he thought he would lose on the Flying Dragon Rider, but was severely slapped in the face by the cold reality.

It stands to reason that Batman is not afraid of anything and everything. He is only afraid that his enemies will not break the law - he has no right to use violence against a law-abiding citizen. If he does, he will either become a black man or be intoxicated by hallucinogens. He must be wise, otherwise he will violate the principles he adheres to, and he will no longer be a righteous knight, but a madman or a self-reliant warlord.

For example, if another company starts a legal business war against Wayne Group and uses legitimate business competition methods to push the group to the brink of bankruptcy, he cannot transform into Batman and lead a group of Justice League members to secretly destroy Wayne Group. The boss of the rival company was beaten to death. After all, he was a knight, not a gangster.

Justice is both Batman's immortal shield and the eternal shackles that limit his behavioral rules. However, for Bradlow, who "all is false and all is allowed", there are no restrictions and he can do whatever he wants.

The lunatic or warlord version of Batman may be very strong, and its destructive power will increase exponentially, but God's blessing and invincible golden body will be broken, which is equivalent to being a boss in the dungeon and can be defeated or even killed.

Therefore, Bradlow chose to use conspiracy to strangle Batman in both the political and economic fields. In his plan, either Batman would give in and disappear, or he would go dark and make a big fuss and become a villain.

As for Bruce Wayne revealing his identity as Batman and running for president, these two situations have never happened in countless multiverses and infinite possibilities. Bradlow ignored it as a matter of course, but he did not expect to be caught by him. Forced into a desperate situation, Bruce Wayne actually used this to launch a desperate counterattack.

Now that all the impossible things have happened, Bredlow finally wakes up from his dream - revealing his identity and running for president are not impossible plot branches. It must be some high-dimensional interference that deliberately avoids this situation and secretly The possibility of these two things happening is hidden.

First of all, there is the possibility of the rich man Bruce Wayne running for president. It is not a fantasy for a businessman to become president in the country of hope. In reality, the country of hope has really happened. How can the DC universe, as a mirror of reality, absolutely not will happen?

Compared with the rich man with cornrows on his head who was born as a playboy, Bruce Wayne is younger, more self-disciplined, more handsome, has a higher IQ, cares more about public welfare and charity, has an excellent public image, and will definitely be more popular with voters.

As for saying that his skin is not dark and it is not a flaw of being a woman, the world situation has changed. I hope that the mentality of the Chinese people will gradually change. Red necks with cornrows on their heads are becoming popular with voters and successfully elected. The two qualities of dark skin and women are very important. The influence of being elected is not as strong as it once was.

It is reasonable that Aquaman, Wonder Woman, and Superman are absolutely impossible to run for president. Aquaman and Wonder Woman are foreigners, and Superman is an alien. They violate the presidential election qualifications stipulated in the federal constitution, that is:

Must be a U.S. citizen by birth. In other words, naturalized citizens are not eligible to be elected president.

Must be over thirty-five years old.

Must have lived in the United States for more than fourteen years.

Bruce Wayne obviously meets all three requirements, and his age and length of residence also meet the requirements. He is fully qualified and capable of running for president. Not running for president is purely a matter of his personal will. If he wants to run, he can run. If he doesn't, he can run for president. It's just that this Batman is a noble man and has no desire to hold power.

Secondly, there is the possibility of Batman disclosing his identity. Unlike The Flash and Superman who are unwilling to reveal their identities because they are worried about affecting their family and friends in their daily lives, Bruce Wayne is not an ordinary person. As the overbearing president of the Wayne Group, he He was originally a workaholic and busy man, managing large companies during the day and staying up late at night to catch criminals. When he was so lucky, he started to implement the 007 work system, and he had no leisure time to enjoy ordinary people's lives.

Among Bruce's close friends, Butler Alfred, Catwoman, Zatanna, Thalia, and Damian are all very difficult to deal with. Only Commissioner Gordon is more difficult to deal with, but regardless of whether Batman's identity is public or not, he will do it every time. Being implicated, either being beaten, shot, kidnapped or hooked up with my daughter, I am used to being tricked.

Perhaps Batman often beats criminals and is suspected of violent crimes, but as a wealthy man with an elite team of lawyers and multiple media companies, and cooperation with the government and the military to a certain extent, it is not a problem to erase this small stain.

You know, Tony Stark can kill terrorists across borders, seriously violate international law, invade the territory of other countries, and crash an F22 fighter jet. It's nothing. Lex Luthor, who has a lot of misdeeds in some parallel earth, can be elected president. He's the best. Xia just beat up a few local criminals and is so scared?

Or maybe Batman wants to remain mysterious and feared by Gotham's criminals, but are criminals really more afraid of him than death? In the first few years of his career, criminals might still be afraid of him, but after so many years, no criminal has died in his hands. The worst outcome for those who fall into his hands is to go to jail. Criminals have already seen through Batman's tendency not to kill people. rule.

In the plot of "The Killing Joke", Batman caught a criminal and beat him wildly, trying to find out the whereabouts of the Joker. The criminal was very tough and said to him: "We may be afraid of you, but we are trembling with fear of the Joker. If you can, beat me to death, or at least one of me, because the clown will not only kill me, but also torture and kill my whole family!"

Obviously, Batman's deterrent effect on criminals is far inferior to that of the Joker, or even inferior to an ordinary murderer. Between the threat of being beaten and jailed or being killed, any idiot knows how to choose.

It can only be said that the reason for not disclosing his identity is because Batman is indifferent to fame and wealth. He is not as stinky as Tony and likes to keep a low profile. It is not that he must never disclose his identity because he will die if exposed to the light.

But the strange thing is that whether Wayne runs for president or Batman reveals his identity, it is not an impossible plot line. However, throughout the history of the multiple earths in the DC universe, no Batman from earth has ever done this.

Bradlow's conspiracy has forced Bruce into a desperate situation. The super police continue to enforce the law in Gotham. After tens of thousands of criminals have died, this sinful city will one day become a peaceful city where the doors are open at night. Batman runs around at night. There really wasn't much to do outside except helping the old lady cross the street.

Super SWAT police are deployed in the entire country of hope, supplemented by revised legislation and strict death penalty. In a few years, all super criminals will be exterminated. The role of the Justice League can only be limited to fighting aliens and invaders from other dimensions. Wuming is so idle that he goes to die when faced with a big crisis, which is not much different from the suicide squad controlled by the military.

Bradlow's ambitions are not limited to this. If he just sits idly by and waits until the traitor turns thirty-five and reaches the voting age, all the superheroes will have aged. I hope Guo Ke will really have the surname Luo. I'm afraid this guy can't even amend the constitution and proclaim himself emperor of the United States.

If Batman's identity is not disclosed, Batman will also face an unemployment crisis. If he does not come out to elect the president, Bradlow will rule the world in the near future. Bruce Wayne is forced to a situation of "waiting to die, and the country will die", except for There seemed to be no other choice but to break through my own limitations and give it a try.

After much thought, Bruce revealed his identity as Batman and announced his candidacy for president. Although it was unexpected, it was also reasonable. Bradlow had to admit that it was his series of actions that greatly distorted the world line. , forced his own father to go to Capitol Hill, and shot himself in the foot.

The original plan was to reduce the number of Batman's fans to destroy his fan power bonus, but now he is going to participate in the world's largest and most expensive super draft event. If he is really elected as the president, it will at least be 100%. The support rate of citizens of the country of hope is over 50 and the kneeling rate of 60 to 70% of the global population...

At that time, everyone will not only be riding the dragon, but also enter the cheat code of "whosyourdaddy", and they don't know how Lang can lose!
