Batman Ninja vs. Yakuza League (2025)

[bunniefuu]

[dramatic music playing]

[dramatic music continues]

[alert blaring]

-Ah!

[gasping]

Huh? Aah!

Dad, look!

My hair's gone

back to normal again!

I swear it was a top knot

last night.

-Hmm.

-A shame. That hairstyle

looked rather good on you.

-Huh?

-Moments ago,

a warning was issued

for a Yakuza Hurricane

approaching Gotham City.

A low-pressure system

is currently building

to the southeast.

-Uh...what did she say?

-A Yakuza Hurricane.

-Let's get to work.

-Strong rain and winds...

-Right.

-...along with a large number

of yakuza falling from the sky.

-[gasps]

-Damian, after we got back

from feudal Japan yesterday,

I needed to know if we

prevented history from changing.

I went to search for deviations

in modern-day Japan,

but as you can clearly see...

-Japan is gone?

-Yes, the islands of Japan

have disappeared.

And just like your hair,

something is wrong.

[platform thuds gently]

-Hm.

[whirring, beeping]

-Alfred, have you made contact

with the Watchtower?

-Well, Master Bruce...

I'm afraid the Watchtower

does not exist.

-Huh?

-It gets worse.

It would seem that Superman,

Wonder Woman, Aquaman,

Green Lantern, and Flash

have also disappeared.

-So we now find ourselves

without a Justice League.

It makes sense

that there'd be no Watchtower.

-Okay, then does this mean

we're on a different

Earth or something?

-No. I already verified

the multiverse frequency.

We are definitely standing

on the right planet.

Which tells us one thing:

That history has been changed.

[platform whirs]

[suspenseful music playing]

-Hm! [giggles]

[suspenseful music continues]

-I am transmitting

the forecasted coordinates

of the Yakuza Hurricane

to you now.

-The yakuza?

How does the Japanese mob

fit into this?

-I sure hope

something makes sense soon.

-[chuckles] Here we go.

-Let's do it!

[engines whirs and whooshes]

[dramatic music continues]

[thud]

[men shouting, screaming]

-Ahh.

[blades clang]

[grunts]

[suspenseful music playing]

-Now give 'em hell!

[all shouting]

[all grunting, yelling]

[Batwing whooshes]

-Huh?

[cape flutters]

[electricity crackles]

[men groan]

[all thud heavily]

-Hello, Batman. Good to see you.

-I guess they weren't kidding

about it raining yakuza.

-Well, yeah, of course.

It's raining men,

just like it always does.

-What the huh?

-What's wrong?

We just did the same

thing yesterday.

-Hyah!

-The only way this makes any

sense is if we've swapped --

-Ha! [grunting]

-Swapped?

-When we returned

from feudal Japan yesterday,

we must have swapped places.

The versions of us who fought

the yakuza in this timeline

must be somewhere else.

-You make it sound simple,

but isn't that kind of

a huge deal?

-You're next, kid! Oof!

-Huh?

-You really should learn

to watch your back, Robin.

-Oh, mind your own business.

I was just about

to wipe the floor with that guy.

-Oh, you were, huh?

I thought all that

time in the past

would have straightened you out,

but, no, you're right back

to being the same little brat.

-Come on!



-[grunts]

What's with the hairdo?

A wig?

-No!

It just grew back overnight.

-Yeah, whatever you say.

[men groaning]

-Arrest the lot of 'em!

-That crazy weather alert

got me off the couch.

Someone care to explain?

-Exactly what it looks like.

In this Gotham,

yakuza rain from the skies.

-Huh?

-Yeah.

Everything's all out of whack.

The islands of Japan are all

gone,

and the Justice League

doesn't exist anymore.

-Really?

-But if there's no Japan,

how are yakuza falling

from the sky?

Huh?

-Mm?

[suspenseful music playing]

-Holy cow!

[suspenseful music playing]

Is that really Japan?

-Floating directly over Gotham.

-What are you looking at

up there?

-Can you not see

the huge island?

-An island?

-Okay, then.

-[groans]

-I guess now we know where

the yakuza are coming from.

-I can't find anything

about the island.

And it would seem the four of us

are the only ones

who can see it.

I'm going up to investigate.

The rest of you deal

with the yakuza.

-Wait! Me too!

-Ah!

Hey!

-[sighs] Better get busy.

Somebody's gotta take care

of that mess.

[device beeps]

-Master Bruce,

there is a strange

energy signature

coming from the

anomaly in the sky.

Sending you the data now.

-It looks like the Quake Engine.

-Yes. Or at least something

very similar to it.

-The Quake Engine?

Isn't that what sent us

through time before?

-This is fallout from

using the engine.

Japan has been removed

from the space-time continuum.

Even though it looks

like it's floating in the sky,

it's actually drifting

through a fissure in space-time.

-So maybe the reason

only we can see it

is because we went

through time too.

-Right. And we don't belong

in this timeline.

We have been displaced in time,

just like that island has.

We need to recover

the Quake Engine

and then use it to return

space-time back to normal.

[voice echoing]

We're entering the fissure.

-[straining]

-Brace yourself!

-[groans]

[dramatic music plays]

-Traveled through time

Traveled through space

I found that I was lost

and far from home

-[vocalizing]



-Trouble

My life is all, all about

trouble

Won't you come face my

fantasy?

Drowning the night away

Battle these crimes

-Battle

-Battle through time

-Battle

-I sacrifice my life

all for justice

[alarm beeping, rumbling]

-It doesn't quite look like

feudal Japan, does it?

-There's a signal

near the Tokyo area.

-Thanks, I see it.

It's enemy territory.

Going radio silent for a while.

-Noted, Master Bruce.

[alarm blaring, both gasp]

[techno music plays]

-Is that Green Lantern?

[techno music continues]

-I commend you for making it

as far as you have,

but it was foolish.

You have entered an area

controlled by the Hagane Family,

and I'll be damned

if you encroach any further,

for I am Zeshika the Emerald

Ray.

(ZESHIKA THE EMERALD RAY)

-Is that Jessica Cruz?

-Not exactly.

This woman's dressed

in a kimono.

[Batwing whooshes]

[music continues]

-[gasps, grunts]

-[exhales sharply]

[loud boom]

-Oh, no, you don't!

(AHSA THE AQUA DRAGON)

-Hang on! Aquaman, too?!

-I'm second-in-command

to the Hagane Family,

Ahsa the Aqua Dragon!

Now get a taste of the

spinning blades

from the trident of

the ruler of the waves!

[both grunt]

[thunder booms, rumbling]

-First a Yakuza Hurricane.

Now a yakuza tornado?

-Sorta.

Tornadoes form on the ground

and pull things upwards.

Since this is coming

from the skies,

it would technically be

a yakuza downburst.

-I didn't ask if you

were a weatherman.

-Hmm?

What is that?

-Huh?

-Invisible to the eyes,

unheard by the ears,

a red blur that comes

and goes like lightning.

Known to be the fastest man

in the Hagane Family,

but I'm the fastest man alive!

I'm the Fleet of Foot, Bari!

(BARI THE FLEETFOOT)

-It's Flash!

-[scoffs] I see you've been

giving my boys here

some trouble,

so I'm here to put you

in your place!

[both grunt]

Hyah!

Come on! Come on! Come on!

[laughs]

[Batwing whooshing]

-Where are you going?

We have orders from the oyabun

to eliminate trespassers.

[dramatic music plays]

[Batman and Robin grunt]

-It's nothing personal,

just how we do business.

Now, say goodbye!

-Aah! Oof!

-That's quite enough

out of you for today.

-Daiana.

-Carved upon this burnished skin

and polished in the

Inokashira waters

for reasons only the

gods could know...

a gold eagle soars

through the skies,

and as the woman who leads her

clan

by turning brutes and th*gs

into warriors...

I am the Eagle Goddess, Daiana.

(DAIANA THE EAGLE GODDESS)

You should know

not to underestimate me.

-You should know

to stay out of this!

-Back off, Daiana!

Hyah!

-[grunts]



Hyah!

-[gasps]

-You're in Kichijoji, and it

belongs to the Amazone Family.

-Oh! Oof!

[snarls]

-Those men are

my guests in our land,

and allowing you

to lay a finger on them

would disrespect the name

of Daiana, the Eagle Goddess.

And I won't have it!

-Ha!

Your life is on the line.

I suggest you think about

if these two are worth it.

Are you smart enough to know

when to back down, Aqua Dragon?

[gasps]

-[chuckles smugly]

-Beepity-beep! h*nky-honk!

Comin' through!

Your attention please!

(HARIN THE WILD JESTER)

Guess who's here, kids!

I hail from the wonderful

whirling cesspool of

grime and greed, Gotham!

I fell for a clown

prince of a man

and started to play pretend

I'm a psycho hoodlum.

Then I met the badass

warrior babe Daiana,

and started kicking a*s for her.

I'm Harin the Wild Jester!

It's a pleasure for you to meet

me.

Now let's dance!

-[gasps]

-Hyah!

[giggles]

-Come on! Come on! Come on!

Yeah!

-What's wrong?

Having a difficult time?

-Well, yeah. We're dealing

with a speedy fella.

We need a way to slow him down.

-Hmm.

[loud expl*si*n]

-Come on, come on, bring it!

Aah! Aah! Aah!

[groans]

[laughter]

-Aah!

-I'm running out of energy.

-Zeshika, we're leaving.

-[gasps]

What are you talking about?

The oyabun won't be happy.

-I'm the one in charge,

so I call the shots.

Do what I say.

-[scoffs]

-Consider yourselves lucky.

[water crashing, energy chiming]

-[grunting]

You boys have done it now.

-You look hungry.

[soft pops]

-Huh?

[hissing]

[inhales softly]

[grunts weakly]

Damn you.

Think you're so clever.

Now I'm hungry as

hell and thirsty.

I need to save enough stamina

for the trip back,

so this will have to wait.

I'll be back!

And next time,

you'll get what's coming to ya!

[air whooshes]

-Somebody wanna explain

why Flash is all messed up?

-A lot's messed up.

Batman's up there trying

to figure it out.

-So you're telling me

the world is still out of whack?

-Looks like it.

(AMAZONE-IKKA)

-Welcome back, Madam Daiana.

-Welcome back, Madam Daiana.

-A country of

nothing but yakuza?

-Yes.

For a very long time now,

Hinomoto has been divided

into different yakuza families,

with clashes happening

almost daily.

Ultimately, it gave rise

to a great w*r for territory

known as the "Yakuzageddon."

So in order to survive,

everyone was forced

to join one of the syndicates,

and now yakuza families

are all that exist.

There is no government

nor law enforcement.

It's yakuza rule over yakuza,

a place of total anarchy.

-Those guys from earlier

were talking about

something called

the Hagane Family.

-Hagane is the

dominant syndicate

that rules over

most of Japan now.

They are the worst of the worst

who will resort

to any tactic

they feel necessary to win...

(DEATH, DEATH, DEATH)

...and their reach runs far

and wide across the land.

My Amazone Family

and the Doomuzu Family

are the only ones with

the strength to oppose them.

But their leader, Deio,

was recently k*lled

and his syndicate fell apart.

-[screaming]

(THE NIGHT OF APRIL 2, 893,

DOOMUZU DEIO IS k*lled)

-As of now, the only family

who still respects

the Ninkyo way is mine,

the Amazone Family.

-The Ninkyo way?

-We will fight for what's right

in the face of death,

never at the detriment

to those living honestly.

And that is the spirit

of the Ninkyo code.

-So your people

are more than just

your typical villains,

aren't they?

That's Wonder Woman for ya.

-Wonder what?

-Uh, no. Never mind.

-In the Hagane Family,

is there a man who can

run with incredible speed

and a flying man who possesses

superhuman strength?

-[gasps]

Yes. In fact, there are.

One of their most

trusted soldiers

is Bari, the Fleet Foot.

He can outrun

even the speed of sound.

Then there is the man faster

than a speeding b*llet,

more powerful than a locomotive,

and he is able to leap tall

buildings in a single bound.

He is their leader.

Kuraku the Man of Steel.

-That's Flash and Superman.

-And we've already seen

Green Lantern and Aquaman,

plus Wonder Woman, of course.

So all the heroes

that went missing

in our world are now over here.

Their Justice League is

more like the Yakuza League.

-This is no laughing matter.

-I take it that is

your world up above us.

We refer to it as Amatsukuni.

-What does it mean?

-"The land in the sky."

It was about a month ago

when it first appeared

in our atmosphere.

-A month ago, huh?

-That must be right

when time started to diverge.

-The Hagane Family wants

to rule more than Hinomoto.

They've already

attacked your lands

in efforts to expand

their territory.

-[Bari panting]

-They've figured out

a way to reach Amatsukuni

by having Bari the Fleet Foot

create a tornado.

-Let me get this straight.

Flash can use his speed

to spin up a tunnel

through the fissure in

space-time?

-Unless someone stops them,

the Hagane Family

will overrun Amatsukuni

and eventually take it over.

I cannot turn a blind eye

to such a thing.

We battle injustice and help the

weak.

The righteous do not deserve

these horrible actions.

It goes against the Ninkyo way.

This is Lake Inokashira.

In the middle is Nyogogashima,

the Isle of Women.

It is also where the

god Benzaiten resides.

Legends say

that when calamity befalls us,

an incarnation of Benzaiten

will arise to save all of Japan.

I was bestowed a fracton

of Benzaiten's powers

and then dispatched here.

I have a mission --

protecting Hinomoto

and the Ninkyo spirit --

and I will do that with my life.

-Kinda seems

like Wonder Woman's personality

is more intact than the others.

-This version of Japan

has its own reality,

isolated from the rest

of the space-time continuum.

Some form of convergent

evolution.

The heroes have likely had

some evolutionary changes

due to the ecology of this

world.

-So did all of this happen

because of our battle

back in feudal Japan?

-No. It's doubtful

for so many elements

to line up by mere coincidence.

It's more likely

that someone had a hand in it.

-Yeah, I guess so.

-Can you point me

in the direction

where we crashed earlier?

I would like to

repair the Batwing.

-Of course. Follow me.

-[sighs]

[insects chirping]

We have already recovered

your airplane.

Don't worry. The Hagane Family

cannot attack you here.

-How did you get it here?

-I had my wards carry it.

-Thank you.

Must have taken some work.

-Oh, no.

They've managed much worse.

That said...

hauling back two in one day

did prove a little taxing.

-That plane.

It belongs to Harley Quinn.

-Aw, you got me!

-You are the same Harley

I know from Gotham, aren't you?

-Yeah. It's me.

Unlike you dorks,

I blended in nice and easy.

Then I met

this beautiful boss lady.

I mean, this chick

can command a room, am I right?

So I stuck around and she let me

stay.

-Hold on.

You haven't been here

for more than half a day

longer than we have.

Acclimated incredibly fast.

-I'm cool like that.

-Uh, 'kay, so...

how can you be

the real Harley Quinn?

I thought we left you in the

custody of the cops last night.

-Hello! Newsflash!

Gotham PD ain't too smart.

-Did Joker escaped too?

-Who knows? Oop!

-Spill it!

What did you come here for?

-Because it looked like

a total blast.

I mean, a freaking

giant Japan floating in the sky?

How could I possibly resist?

-I don't trust you. Tell me,

where the hell is The Joker?

-I dunno.

We're not joined

at the hip, you know.

-Don't lie to me!

-That is enough.

I do not know your relationship,

but the two of you

are guests in my home...

so please refrain from fighting

while you're here.

-[giggles]

-Hmph.

"Lift up the honor of others."

The pathway to respect.

-I'm glad that you

understand our customs.

-There. See? Mm-hmm! [sighs]

-Really?

-When it comes to the samurai,

one's honor is cherished even

more so than their own lives.

I can appreciate that, ma'am.

-A wealth of knowledge.

I knew you were more than

ordinary.

Despite the dark mask you wear

to cover up your face,

you must be a reputable oyabun

where you're from.

-Oyabun?

No. I am no leader.

-Whatever.

He heads up

the whole Bat Family.

Everybody in the underworld

knows all about that freak

and hates his guts too!

Right, Batty Man?

-The Bat Family?

I'm not surprised you

would have a syndicate.

-Harley, you need to keep

your mouth shut.

-The oyabun of the Bat cartel.

Interesting.

-It's not like that.

-I don't know, man.

Sounds kinda rad.

-Be quiet.

-[chuckles]

-Where are you going?

-So sorry, Daiana.

Appreciate all ya done for me,

but there's no way I can be on

the same squad as those losers.

You mind if I park the plane

here?

Thanks! Bye-bye!

-Shouldn't we go after her?

-No. Repairs take priority.

We'll return to the Batcave.

I've had plans in place

to defeat the Justice League.

-Huh?

-I've always been prepared

in case I ever needed

to take them down.

-Turning on your own allies.

That is so you.

(AMAZONE-IKKA)

-All finished with your repairs?

-Yes. Thank you for your help.

We'll return soon...

-Huh? [laughs]

-...and I will put a stop

to the Hagane tyranny.

-Aw.

[stones clang]

[Batwing whooshes]

-We're approaching

the space-time fissure.

[monitor beeps]

-Something is closing

in on the Batwing.

-Oh, and pretty fast too.

-I figured he'd show up sooner

or later.

[beam whooshing]

[dramatic music playing]

-[grunts]

[rapid g*nf*re]



[both grunt]

[snarls]

-[gasps]



[both gasp]

-You've got quite the audacity

to trespass into my territory

and not come say hello.

-And who are you?

-Kuraku, the Man of Steel.

I am in charge

of protecting the Hagane Family.

(KURAKU THE MAN OF STEEL)

-What are you planning

to do with us?

-Come along, Robin!

The Great Oyabun would

like to have a word.

-You're not the boss?

-Hard to imagine

someone above you.

-Yes. The Great Oyabun

is the one who has led

us down this path.

Do not resist.

I have orders to eliminate you

if you try to make

things difficult.

-I must ask, how does

your Great Oyabun refer to me?

-You are the Detective,

the worthless trash who

collects dirt on other people.

-There you have it.

That tells me pretty much

everything I need to know.

-You think so?

-Yeah.

It looks like we're dealing

with Ra's al Ghul.

[device beeps]

Hm?

-Still as sharp as

ever, Detective.

-Of course it's you.

-But it seems you

figured it out a

little too late.

I even had enough time

to hack into the Bat-Tech

of your vehicle.

Now, come, grandson,

I need to talk to you.



[both grunt, gasp]

[loud thud]

[loud expl*si*n]

-[laughs maniacally]

Looks like you're in it

pretty deep, Batty Man!

-The Joker!

[menacing music playing]

-Now let's get

this party started!

[explosions]

-[snarls]

Stay out of my way!

-You kidding me?!

Getting in the way

is my favorite pastime.

Besides, the only one

who gets the pleasure

of k*lling the Batman is me!

[laughs]

[horn firing]

No way in hell some phony

super fella gets to do it.

-The Great Oyabun

gave me an order,

and I will follow through!

-Aah! Aah!

-Wahoo!

-Damian!

-Excellent work, Kuraku.

-Hey! Put me back!

-I'll see you soon.

-Aah!

No, no, no,

don't just throw me!

-[gasps, grunts]

-You never should have come

here, you rotten piece of trash!

[both gasp]

-[laughs maniacally]

[loud expl*si*n]

Harley!

I'll let you duke it out

with the big guy.

-What?!

Are you freaking kidding me?!

-Oh, don't worry. I'm sure

you'll be fine. You got this.

-Huh?

-Love you, boo! Have fun!

-Uh...

[chuckles nervously]

-[straining]

[device beeping]

-It's time for the good little

Bat birdies to go on home!

-[growls]

-You wanna get back

to Gotham, don't you?

Well, I'm feeling I could do

you a wee favor today, Bats.

Mwah!

-And just abandon Harley?

-Abandon her? Don't be silly.

I'm giving her the spotlight.

-[shouting indistinctly]

-Ain't that right, baby?

-What?!

I'm just your chopper fodder!

This is your stupidest prank

ever, Joker!

-[inhales deeply, exhales]

-Wha!

[loud booming]

[screaming]

-Time for you to die!

[echoing boom]

Aah!

-Aah! Oof!

[Daiana exclaims]

[groaning weakly]

-Mind your own business,

Amazone wench.

-This girl is my personal guest.

I don't care which family you

work for.

I won't let you lay a finger on

her.

[phone ringing]

-I caught the kid.

He's safe and sound.

-Okay. Good work.

We all live within

the underbelly of society.

Only the strongest survive.

It's simply

how the yakuza world works.

Our path in life is forged

through crime and violence.

-Along that path,

hell is all that awaits you.

-Demons and yakuza

are both the same.

You'll find soon enough

when I take your head off.

-Lucky for me,

I've got a strong neck,

so you're going to

have to work for it.

-Hm.

-You still alive?

-Yeah, more or less.

Uh, why'd you save me?

-It's like I said:

I will not let anyone

be rude to my guests.

I refuse to watch a girl suffer,

especially one caught

in the crossfire between men.

The Amazone Family

is a refuge for women,

as well as their tears.

-Not sure what

that's supposed to mean,

but I can say

I appreciate the sentiment.

-That's just fine.

The Ninkyo way is about heart,

mine and yours.

-Mm-hmm.

[exhales sharply]

-[gasps]

[wind howling]

-Ah, here we are,

back in good ol' Gotham proper.

-Joker, why are you doing this?

-I'd like to preserve the

pleasure of k*lling you myself.

And I don't know if I could

stomach the thought of

some know-it-all super sucker

having all the fun.

Especially if that old fart

Ra's is pulling the strings.

-So you rescued me to k*ll me?

That's dumb.

-No need to thank me, buddy!

-You're always up to something.

-Oh, come on!

You and I go back.

You can trust me.

When have I ever led you astray?

Smell ya later, Batty!

[laughs]

Don't get into much trouble!

[cackles]

-Batman!

-Ah.

(HAGANE-IKKA)

-Irasshai. Come in.

Zeshika, very well done.

You may go.

-Yes, sir.

-Your seared salmon, sir.

-Can I get a California roll?

-Nice.

Are you familiar

with "oral seasoning"?

-Can't say that I am.

-With sushi rice,

you can pair an endless

amount of combinations,

and all those infinite

possibilities eventually become

a singular phenomenon

for each individual.

Interesting, yes?

-What are you talking about,

old man?

-The Japanese people are masters

at layering these wondrous

flavors together

to create a new universe

within every meal.

-So you're trying to tell me

something about this

whole new Japan thing?

-Ubu, turn on the television.

-Sir.

-What am I looking at?

-The moment just before

you were all sent

to feudal Japan.

I had already received word

of Gorilla Grodd's plans

to develop the Quake Engine

and use it to warp space-time.

-Okay, so this place

was created by the Quake Engine.

That's what we figured.

-Oh, it's far more

advanced than that.

I improved upon its design

to allow the engine

to shift space-time itself.

The idea was to stack

multiple worlds over each other

and change their shape.

I could conjure an

entirely new world

by simply overlaying

different scenarios,

and this yakuza version

of Japan was ultimately born.

So, what if an

alien from Krypton

who was meant to

end up in America

instead landed in Japan and

was raised by a yakuza family?

What if there was

an island of women

in the middle of

Lake Inokashira?

And what if a descendant

of the gods was born there?

And what if there

was a species

of aquatic people living at

the bottom of Lake Inokashira,

and their queen fell in love

with a yakuza gangster

and gave birth to a son

who grew up to become

ruler of the aquatic race

and a yakuza lieutenant as well?

-I feel like you cut that short.

-What if a low-level yakuza thug

got struck by lightning

while in a hot spring,

and obtained the ability to run

even faster than a thunderbolt?

What if a gambler found herself

in trouble and on the run,

and just so happened to stumble

across a hidden power ring

and its energy supply?

By folding and overlapping

all these various scenarios,

one can form them into an

entirely new thing altogether,

like shaping a crane out of

a single sheet of paper.

The Four-Dimensional

Origami System...

That is what I have chosen

to call my brilliant new device.

Now there is a country ruled

entirely by violent gangsters,

my very own army of assassins.

All I have to do is send them

to attack Amatsukuni,

and the earth will be rid

of the plague of humanity.

-[snoring]

-It's beautifully ironic.

It won't be the Justice League

but a Yakuza League

that will restore peace

and harmony back to the world.

-[gasps]

-Rather amusing,

wouldn't you say?

-Sounds like you went to

a whole lot of trouble, Grandpa.

Does my mom know about this?

-Talia?

She has no part in any of this,

no.

It's my plan, and mine alone.

So then, Damian,

all you have to do is ask

and I will gladly hand over

my rule to you.

I was sure to make

the inflection point

where history changed

a month prior to your

return from feudal Japan.

Everything is in place.

The order can be

given at any time,

and the yakuza of these lands

will lead a purge

of the old world.

-You want me to be like

your successor or something?

Yeah, that's a hard pass.

-Still not interested, are you?

This is a wonderful opportunity.

Such a waste.

-[sighs]

You can ask all you want,

but I'm not changing my mind.

And, like,

what are we even doing here

if none of your big master plan

involves sushi?

I don't get why you feel like

you have to put on

some dramatic show

to get your point across.

-I just like the sushi here

and thought it would

be nice for you

to experience a little culture,

but all you ate were

those awful California rolls,

disgusting pig vomit.

-Well, my taste buds say,

"Screw you, old man."

-Alright, we are done here.

-[gasps]

Aah!

[playful music playing]

Aah!

-Mm-hmm.

-[gagging]

This seaweed reeks!

-You just stay there

and watch my yakuza army

cleanse the world

of all the human filth.

Feel free to enjoy some

California rolls

while you're at it.

-You are seriously

like the worst grandpa ever!

-Hold up. So you're

saying it was The Joker

who actually saved your butt?

-It's never simple with him.

I'm sure it must be part

of some bigger scheme.

-Well, we can't just let

him run loose, can we?

-No, but dealing with the

yakuza takes priority right now.

-Especially given

who's behind all this.

Ra's is insane.

-So we have yakuza

versions of Superman,

Green Lantern, Aquaman, and

Flash?

-While I'm glad

Wonder Woman is on our side,

it still won't be easy.

-Wrong. This should be

a simple win.

We already know the extent

of their abilities

better than anyone.

-So what?

-The Yakuza League is like the

proverbial frog born in a well.

They know nothing outside

the world in which they live.

They lack practical combat

experience,

and that's a weakness

we can take advantage of.

-I get it.

They don't know what it's like

to fight

against the most cunning badass

of all time.

-At the time when

we returned from feudal Japan,

we were exposed to an energy,

a space-time pulse,

that was being emitted

from the Quake Engine.

That's why we can see Japan

in the sky,

as well as travel safely through

the fissure in space-time.

And the same goes for whatever

we're holding on to as well.

-Which means we can take all

of our Bat-gear with us

to Yakuza Land, too.

I like the sound of that.

-I have something prepared

for you, gentlemen.

[peppy music playing]

Did you see that? Those are

the wings that cut down evil

(TAKE OFF! BAT-PHOENIX)

Yes, he cloaks

His identity in shadow

And fights for justice

Even in the face of death

He seeks eternal peace

By using all manner of

scientific knowledge

He'll get it done

Soar high, Bat-Phoenix!

Combine your powers together

Did you see that?

In the form of a bat,

but somehow a phoenix

Fight on, Bat-Phoenix!

Use the power of friendship

Fly beyond the horizon

in the azure skies, Batman!

[monitor beeps, music stops]

-I do hope you enjoyed

my presentation.

-Yes, um... thank you, Alfred.

-Huh? Hmm.

(HAGANE-IKKA)

-Fine job extinguishing

the Doomuzu-gumi.

-It was hardly

a challenge at all.

That leaves the Amazone Family.

-She is the only one among you

who failed to embrace the

yakuza's ruthless way of life.

Perhaps overlapping

the different dimensions

didn't go as smoothly as I

thought.

-She's been a thorn in our side.

I'll deal with her.

-Yes...

and once Hinomoto is brought

under a single banner,

next will be Amatsukuni.

Invading and conquering the

obnoxious blight in our skies

should be quick work for you.

-Yesterday, some of the

yakuza from Amatsukuni

stirred up trouble.

They were dressed in ridiculous

bat and clown outfits.

Judging by their actions,

they are nothing but fools

with no respect for our ways.

As you have said,

leaving them alive

will not prove useful

to us in any way.

-Exactly right.

-And also,

you said their world

is like ours,

filled with a rabble

of yakuza th*gs?

-Yes.

-Then I will crush

them without mercy.

The weak shall perish

and the strong thrive

as the rule of all

yakuza rings true.

-I trust you will not fail.

-Rest assured Amatsukuni

will crumble

and fall under a hailstorm

of our warriors.

-Then see to it.

Ubu.

-Yes, sir.

-The sushi.

-Hm!

-Make sure Bari has

a full stomach.

-He'll be happy with that.

[suspenseful music]

-My lady, may I have a moment?

-Quietly, please.

Our guest is still asleep.

-There is a turtle at the gates.

-A turtle?

Right.

An oracle bone script.

Such an antiquated way

of sending a message.

-Ma'am,

it's from the aquatic people.

-Very well.

Tell Ahsa I accept the request.

(AHSA)

[women gasp]

[thudding]

[slow ballad music playing]

I have been challenged to a

duel.

Ahsa the Aqua Dragon

wants to settle things.

Suppose that there

were no tears in this world

("ALL ALONE", VOCALS:

DAIANA THE EAGLE GODDESS)

Suppose that there was

No anger in my soul

Suppose that I never

learned how to love

All I think about are

those possibilities, however

The warped threads of destiny

overlap and intertwine

Going against the maelstrom

to take a stand

An unrealized dream

hidden behind a blade

I shall walk alone down

the path of carnage

Yes, down this path

without a single regret

All alone, just me,

walking on

-[clears throat] Always I --

H-Hey!

[suspenseful music playing]

-I thought I was clear

when I said one-on-one.

-She is here to be a witness.

-Aw.

-Daiana, I will first ask

if you'd agree to join

the Hagane Family.

We've known each other

since we were young.

I can put in a

good word for you.

-You two were friendsies?

-We once played together in the

waters of Lake Inokashira.

I don't want to hurt you.

-Oh, don't flatter yourself.

How did you get dragged

into this yakuza mess, anyway?

The Great Oyabun of your g*ng

is from Amatsukuni.

I hope it was worth

throwing away your pride.

-I want to rule...

the skyward sea.

-The sea?

-It's a strange thing.

I've known nothing

but the waters of this

lake my whole life,

but whenever

I look up to the sea,

it feeds a fire

deep within my soul.

As though there's

another world out there,

one where I live

as king of the great ocean.

There are days it's all I think

about.

I will make that sea my

territory.

And to have it, I will submit

to Ra's as Great Oyabun.

-Ahsa, you act as though

you're some pillar of society,

but that's just your ego

talking.

Living underwater

has swollen your head.

-[chuckles]

I'd expect you to say

something like that.

-[chuckles softly]

-Hmm?

[both laughing]

[both grunt]

[Harley yelps]

[both snarling]

-[straining]

[wood crashes]

-Huh?

-[groans]

-Don't you worry.

I'll drain that

big head of yours.

-[squeals] You're so cool!

-You're out of your depth!

-Huh!

Hyah!

Prepare to meet

your maker, Ahsa!

-[roaring]

-[gasps]

Huh?

-You've got some real

fight in you, Daiana.

[women groaning]

-My girls!

-Zeshika...

-There's no way that Daiana,

the surrogate mommy

with the heart of gold,

can just sit back and

watch her precious children die.

-Forget about us!

Destroy her, Oyabun!

-Keep fighting! Take her down!

-We're here for you!

Pay us no mind!

-Well, if you guys

aren't gonna fight fair,

then you won't mind

if I join in too.

[laughing maniacally]

Bleh!

-[gasps]

-Hyah!

-[grunts]

-I have a duty

to see this through,

so please forgive me, ladies.

[both grunting]

Aah!

-[growling]

[both grunting]

[weapons clanging]

-Hyah!

-[gasps]

[rubble clatters]

-Hmph.

You haven't changed at all

since you were a kid, have you?

Even if you think

you've got it all figured out,

there is still doubt in your

heart.

-[scoffs]

You're not the man

you once were.

-It's time to say

your prayers, Daiana.

-Hyah! Hee!

Jumpity-jump, jumpity-jump,

jumpity-jump, jumpity-jump!

-Quit jump-jump-jumping

all over the place!

Now feel my fury!

Kanzashi Fl--

[screaming]

[straining]

-Hello!

-Kanzashi Flasher!

[dramatic music playing]

-Nightwing, you take Zeshika.

-I'm on it.

-Red Hood, Red Robin, you two

head for the Yakuza Tower.

-Got it.

-Roger that.

[Batwing whooshes]

-[grunting]

[women screaming]

-Wahoo! [giggles]

Splash!

[dramatic music continues]

[both gasp]

-[straining]

-I'm glad we made it in time.

-You came back.

-Ha!

Huh? Aah!

When the hell did you do that?!

[triumphant music playing]

[straining]

-[grunting]

Aah! Oof!

[breathing heavily]

-[chuckles smugly]

[device whirring]



-I have sent Doomuzu Deio

to his death!

The Hagane-gumi ended

Yakuzageddon as victors!

Now it's time to extend our rule

by taking control of Amatsukuni.

You will find no one

more ruthless than us.

You will eradicate

these intruders

with the full force

of our strength.

Teach them a lesson!

The Hagane-gumi reigns over all.

We have nothing to fear!

Hunt down every last piece

of trash from Amatsukuni,

and crush their very spines!

[cheering]

-You're a fool!

Fighting me under water

is a death sentence!

Hyah!

-[grunts]

-[straining]

You can't defeat me!

-Take this!

Dice of Hell, The Devil's Bones!

Ha!

-[scoffs, chuckles]

Ha!

[peppy music playing]

Yeah!

-The operation to take over

Amatsukuni has begun!

You are all ammunition! b*ll*ts!

-Right!

-What the heck is that?

-You can fly?!

-[roars]

[both grunting]

[laughs]

Oof! Gah!

-[gasps]

Huh?

-Hyah!

-Come on! Don't tell me

you're already done.

-'Kay, funny man.

You are going to regret

getting c*ck with me.

-Nobody can beat me

under the waves!

The water is my home,

and it's always on my side!

[laughs]

-I wouldn't be so sure.

-Huh? Oh?

[pulse warbles]

Aah!

-That's an ultrasonic shield.

You're not going anywhere.

[both grunting, straining]

-[groaning]

Gah! Aah!

-Bad idea!

-Gah!

Aah!

-This fight is over!

-Aah!

-Don't you get it?

This is what happens

when you face

the might of the Emerald Ray.

-Hey.

-[gasps] Huh?

-Science Ninja Technique:

Decoy Body.

-When did you do that?

-I was never inside

to begin with.

-[exhales sharply]

-Hm.

Sweet dreams.

-Let's go, let's go,

let's go!

[shouting]

[energy warbling]

-[straining]

You can't hold me!

[shouting]

-Hm?

-[breathing heavily]

[yelps]

[groaning]

Daiana!

Damn you!

-Ahsa, I believe

you said the water

is always on your side,

but the tide can be

turned against you.

-What?!

-Running electric

currents through water

splits it into

hydrogen and oxygen.

-Aah!

[groaning]

-And when you recombine

the two again,

they can become highly

expl*sive.

-[screaming]

[expl*si*n]

-Science Ninja Technique:

Electrolysis.

Take it from me,

there is no bigger threat

than having a friend turn foe.

[insects chirping]

[hatch whirs]

-Thanks for getting me

out of that sticky situation.

-Same to you. I appreciate it.

-I am grateful you returned

with your henchmen.

They seem very capable.

Since the Hagane-ikka launched

an attack on my family,

it means that they must be ready

to unleash their full-scale

invasion on Amatsukuni.

-As I thought. That's

precisely why we came here.

[device beeping]

-Batman.

-Huh?

-We found the Quake Engine.

It's in the heart

of the Yakuza Tower.

-What is the Quake Engine?

-It's a machine that's

been keeping this country stable

by connecting it

to an interdimensional fissure.

But once we destroy it,

Hinomoto should go back to being

part of its original world.

-So you're saying

it's something like an anchor,

and once we cut it loose,

we're free?

-That about sums it up.

-Huh?

[energy crackling]

[wind howling]

-Nightwing, let's get moving.

-Right.

-I'm going with you.

I'm a native of Hinomoto,

and we should clean up

our own mess.

-That is exactly what

I'd expect from you.

Yeah, you're not too different

from the person I know.

-The one called Wonder Woman,

right?

Robin mentioned her before.

-Yes. That's correct.

-I've always had this feeling

that I wasn't alone,

that there was someone like me

out there somewhere.

Ahsa seemed to share

the same sentiment.

-Yeah?

-I shall not bring shame to her

by living below her standards.

Perhaps she's the reason

I protect the Ninkyo

and why I keep its spirit alive.

-I wouldn't worry about that.

You're exactly how

you should be, wherever you are.

-Hop on in.

-No.

I tend to get carsick.

Ha!

-Huh. Go figure.

-Let's go.

[energy crackling]

[wind howling]

-Within the ranks

of the Japanese yakuza

are sacrificial assassins

sent to k*ll the bosses

of rival syndicates.

They are like human b*ll*ts.

-[snarling]

-And now those men

will quite literally

be fired straight into Gotham,

willing to pay

the ultimate price.

[machine cranking]

-Alright!

Now give 'em hell!

[rapid firing]

[men shouting]

[machine whirring]

-Huh? This is so dumb.

You guys are

out of your damn minds.

[engines revving]

-It's like a damn

Yakuza Tornado,

and it's about to hit Gotham!

-Very good. It's building

up from the ground,

just like a real tornado.

Not like a downburst.

-Huh?

-There seemed to be

some confusion earlier.

-What are you, a weatherman?

We gotta stop it.

-Yeah, yeah. Hang on.

We need to amplify the

space-time pulse

that's within us,

and block the Speed Force

from crossing dimensions.

-Science Ninja Technique:

Tornado Canceler!

[both gasp]

[dramatic music]

-[gasps]

[men screaming]

[expl*si*n]

Oyabun!

Those jerks from

Amatsukuni are attacking!

-Do they think

we're screwing around?

Beat them to a bloody pulp!

-Yes, sir!

-Come, Detective, meet your end.

[dramatic music]

-Bat-Phoenix,

going into cloaking mode.

[thuds, whooshes]

[engines revving]

Step on it, Jason.

-Alright!

-Get back here, now!

-Here comes our boy!

Flash in a funny hat!

-Why don't you stop

talking and focus?

-Ha!

[tires squeal]

Hyah!

You won't get away from me

that easily!

-Yeah? We'll see.

[device beeps]

[rockets boom]

-Okay, that's not bad.

But watch this!

Ha!

Hyah!

[tires squeal]

Huh? Huh? Hyah!

-You may be the fastest man

alive, but you're still a man.

[device beeps]

-Huh?

-Hmph. What?!

-I don't think so.

I ain't falling for that again!

-Then try this on for size!

[oil sloshing]

-Try again!

[laughs]

Hyah!

-[grunts]

-Tim!

Go that way!

[men gasp]

-Huh?

Hyah!

[men shouting]

-Aah!

[device beeps]

That's not good.

We can't fit on the road!

-No, check this out!

[both shouting]

[men gasp]

-Hyah!

You won't escape. Hyah!

Hyah!

[straining]

Damn it!

[groaning]

No way!

I should be faster

than these chumps

because nobody beats the

fastest man in the world.

[electricity crackling]

Nobody beats me!

[straining]

Huh?

That's not possible!

[breathing heavily]

Huh?

[static crackling]

What...

[grunts] the hell is this?!

You dare pull this kind

of crap with me?

I am done screwing around!

You hear me?

You and your cheap tricks.

I hate your stupid city

and all you losers!

[breathing heavily]

Bunch of damn punks.

I'll run them down

and pull their guts out

and throw 'em in the in the

street.

Just wait, you little turds.

Huh?

-It went off without a hitch.

Way to go, Jason.

-You know, this

doesn't really feel like a win.

-Aw, come on.

You know this would have

been much more difficult

if that were the real Flash.

-Now that is a

super huge problem.

Hmm?

[groans]

Hmph.

It's about time you showed up,

bat fiend.

-I'm here to get Robin back.

-I'm sure you love your son.

Sadly, your other sidekicks

are already dead.

Hm?

[both grunt]

-I've got bad news

for you, Kuraku.

-Daiana.

Ahsa...

I should have known he wouldn't

be able to handle the job.

[engine revs]

[brakes screech]

-Get in!

-All of you, go to secure

the Quake Engine and find Robin.

-Come on!

[growling]

-Hyah!

-[grunts]

-Zeshika has been defeated.

You're the only member

of the Hagane Family standing.

-Yes, well, that is

hardly a problem.

Not with me around.

[laughs]

Ha!

I am the Man of Steel,

master of the underworld.

Kuraku will show you no mercy!

And as long as I live,

the Hagane-gumi will never die!

[glass breaks]

[electricity crackles]

All of Hinomoto and Amatsukuni

will both be under my control.

-[grunts]

-Hm!

-The power you wield,

why do you not use it

to help other people?

-To help others?

That's what I'm doing.

This is humanity's true nature.

They have a desire

to hurt each other

and rule from the

moment of birth.

The only way to

govern this world

is to suppress their

evil tendencies

with an even greater evil!

-[gasps]

Hm?

Aah!

[growls]

[cape fluttering]

-Daiana, you should

head for Yakuza Tower, too.

-Yes, but --

-Stopping the Quake Engine

is our top priority right now.

I'll handle things here myself.

-[grunts]

-You think all that

fancy machinery

will be enough to stop me?

You have no idea

who you're dealing with.

[snarls]

(YAKUZA TOWER,

-Hmph.

Die.

Ha!

[gasps]

-What's wrong?

Got something in your eye?

-[snarls]

Hya--

What?!

[grunts]

Aah!

[grunting, groaning]

-What'd you do?

-You're not from here.

You were born

on a different planet.

The only way you have

such incredible powers

is when you're exposed

to the sun rays here on Earth,

your superhuman strength

and your body of steel,

your power to fly,

and your ability to sh**t

heat vision from your eyes.

However...

when exposed to the red sun rays

from your birth planet,

then you become just like

any other normal human being.

-That's not possible.

Hm?

[gasps] Huh?

You did this?

[triumphant music playing]

-Yes. That's right.

You didn't destroy my machine.

You helped me arrange it

into the proper positions.

By configuring this collection

of crystals into a filter,

I turned the Earth's yellow

sunlight

into the exact same

type of light

found on your birth planet.

Science Ninja Technique:

Spectral Conversion!

-Damn you!

[grunting, groaning]

-You feel that?

That's what we humans call pain.

You never knew what it felt like

because you've always

lived with incredible strength.

-[groans]

-Hurts, doesn't it?

This is the pain

of all the people

you're trying to tyrannize.

Everyone living normal lives

in Amatsukuni.

-[breathing heavily]

Normal?

There's nothing normal

about the yakuza.

-Yakuza?

-Yeah, that's right!

I know that Amatsukuni

is the same as Hinomoto.

It's filled with nothing but

yakuza.

-[sighs] Unbelievable.

You never gave a second

thought to all that crap

Ra's al Ghul fed you.

-You mean he lied?

-Most people living in

Amatsukuni are average citizens.

Or as a friend once put it,

"good, honest people."

The whole reason I fight

is to protect those people

from criminals like the yakuza.

-You don't expect me to

believe that nonsense, do you?

-Oh, no, you don't have to

take my word for it.

-Your arrogance will

be your end!

[grunting, groaning]

[gasping]

-Is that all you've got, Kuraku?

-[gasps]

-[gasps, whimpers]

-What's the matter?

Are you afraid of me?

I know a man who is

remarkably similar to you.

Except...

losing his superpowers

wasn't enough

to stop him from having

a heart of steel.

He kept on fighting

through sheer willpower

and did whatever it

took to save lives.

If I'm enough to

strike fear in you,

then you're nothing

compared to him.

And you never will be.

You'll never amount to anything.

-Ha!

[mirror clanks]

[gasps]

[laughs]

They're back.

I can feel all my powers

returning to me.

Now I'm going to make you regret

ever talking to me like that.

Die!

-Just as expected.

-Hyah!

[shouts, groans]

[grunting, gasping]

[sputtering weakly]

-Kryptonite!

Your weakness.

It nullifies the powers

of Kryptonians like you.

This was entrusted to me by

the very man I told you about.

He wanted me to use it

to stop him

if he ever lost control

and went on a rampage.

You two may look the

same on the outside,

but you don't even

have a fraction

of his pride or his heart.

-[sputters, exhales sharply]

[triumphant music playing]

-I'm coming for you next, Ra's.

-I never expected

Kuraku to lose.

-Hm.

-Hm.

[all shouting]

[all grunting]

[chuckles]

-[gasps]

-Wha--

[men shouting]

Aw, man. This was supposed

to be my time to shine.

-Your father asked me

to come help you out.

Your friends are here as well.

[blade creaking]

Are they your older brothers?

You all look pretty similar.

-You've got to be kidding.

They're just posers

who think they came first.

[device humming softly]

-Ra's the Great Oyabun,

your family is finished.

The leader of the Bat Family

has defeated them all.

-Ha! Your big plan has failed,

Grandpa.

You won't be able to send

your stupid g*ons

over to Gotham anymore.

-Hm.

Very well, then.

I guess it's time for plan B.

[machine whirs]

[glass shatters]

So glad you could make it,

Detective.

But once again,

you're a little too late.

-He's got

the space-time converter.

-What is that?

-I can only guess

it's the key part of

his time travel machine.

[rumbling, energy pulsing]

-[gasps]

[energy intensifying]

-[gasps]

[dramatic music playing]

-[gasps]

[thunder rumbling]

Dear God. What is that?

-What have you done? Ra's?!

-I deactivated the

energy modulator,

sending the Four-Dimensional

Origami System out of control.

Now nothing holds

Hinomoto in place,

which will cause the Tokyo area

to rematerialize in

the other world.

Gotham City will be crushed.

-Ra's, no!

-That is going to impact

far more than Gotham!

The shock wave alone will

bring a global disaster.

This cannot be what you want.

-Oh, well, you don't need

to worry about a thing.

The shockwave will

be absorbed within the fissure,

so it won't be like a meteor

or anything that exciting.

In fact, I would consider

it an improvement.

This nation of yakuza will purge

and purify all the rotten filth.

-Eh, sounds kinda

overboard to me.

-Hm! Ha!

-[gasps]

-[breathing rapidly]

Hya--

[gasps]

It's gone.

-Mm.

-Batman!

-Where's the Quake Engine?

-Yeah, so, uh...

it sort of disappeared.

-It did what?!

-The Bat Family makes

its grand entrance.

But unfortunately for you,

your superior numbers

make no difference here.

Since the Four-Dimensional

Origami System

no longer has limits,

it is now operating while

sliding through multiple

space-time continuums,

which means anyone

within this part of space-time

won't even be able to touch it.

-That can't be.

-What is this lunatic

even talking about?!

-It's like he's gambling

and cheating at the table.

He's hidden the dice that

are supposed to be in the cup,

and now nobody gets a roll.

-Ridiculous.

Then it's not even a game!

[energy warbling]

Huh? Ah!

-Yes, exactly.

I've no intention

of taking a gamble with you.

-Well, in that case...

-Huh?

-Huh?

-Hmm?

-...then why don't I

do the gambling?

[energy warbling]

-There it is!

-What?

-Our bodies have been exposed

to a space-time pulse

emitted from the Quake Engine.

It may be possible for us to

focus that energy on the device

as it fluctuates

through space-time

and then anchor it

to this continuum.

That's the gamble

I'm willing to take.

-Sounds cool. I'm in!

[warbling intensifies]

-We'll join, too!

-No, you won't!

[gasps]

-Hyah!

-[grunts, groans]

-Get the space-time converter

away from him!

-Consider it done.

[dramatic music playing]

-Did it work?

-Not yet. We need more energy.

-Five of us isn't enough?

-[snarls, gasps]

[gasping heavily]

-[groaning]

[gasping heavily]

-[groaning, gasping heavily]

-[groaning, gasping heavily]

Huh?

Wha...

-[gasping heavily]

How can that be?

[triumphant music playing]

-Losing his superpowers

wasn't enough to stop him

from having a heart of steel.

He kept on fighting

through sheer willpower

and did whatever it

took to save lives.

If I'm enough to

strike fear in you,

then you're nothing

compared to him.

You'll never amount to

anything.

-[groaning]

-Daiana!

-What's wrong?!

-It must be recoil

from the Origami System.

-[gasps painfully]

-Batman, this thing's

starting to disappear!

-You worthless piece of trash!

Ha!

-[grunts]

-It's time to die!

Gah!

-Daiana!

-[grunts, yelps]

-[breathing heavily]

[footsteps approaching rapidly]

[energy pulsates]

-[gasps]

[all shout, groan]

-Hm.

[all groaning]

-[gasps]

-[panting]

[gasps]

-Evacuate everyone from

the city. Right now!

-That looks bad.

-[panting]

[cracking, rumbling]

[laughs evilly]

-[gasps]

What is happening?

-Tokyo has physically manifested

itself outside of the fissure

and is now being affected

by Earth's gravity.

And there is nothing you can do

to stop it.

-Yes, there is.

I can still take back the

space-time converter from you

and then stop the device.

-Mm. That's a valid point.

Right.

Then let's complicate things.

[device clicks]

[expl*si*n]

[dramatic music playing]

[men screaming]

-What the hell have you done?!

-I've detonated the base

of the structure.

Even if this tower is the

only thing to fall on Gotham,

it's still enough

to raze the city to the ground!

-You're a damn monster!

-Farewell, then, Detective!

-[chuckles smugly]

-Now you and your

little Bat Family

can go back to Gotham...

as a pile of bloody corpses.

[laughs evilly]

-Aah!

-Aah!

[thud]

-[gasps]

[energetic music playing]

-[straining]

[device beeps]

-At last, a signal!

Master Bruce, can you hear me?

-Copy, Alfred. What's going on?

-The fine ladies and gentlemen

of the Yakuza League

are protecting Gotham.

-[gasps]

-Ha!

[peppy music playing]

-Aah!

-Aah!

-Ha!

-[sighs]

-Ha!

-Oh!

-Hyah!

-[groans]

Huh?

-Arise!

-Kuraku and the others.

[grunts]

-What the...?

-Master Ra's! It's him!

-Hmm?

How is he doing that?

[Batwing reverberating]

-You're not getting away, Ra's!

[Batwing whooshes]

-Aah!

[grunts, groans]

-[gasps, groans]

Damn you, Detective!

[Batwing whooshes]

[all groaning]

-I have the

space-time converter.

-You got it back!

-Whoa!

-We have to hurry! The tower is

about to crash into the city!

-[straining]

[energy warbling]

-[grunts]

-It didn't work! I don't think

we have enough pulse energy!

-[straining]

-[grunts]

-Is that you, Daiana?

-So what made you

change your mind?

-I saw the man,

the other version of me.

He risked his life to protect

the innocent and vulnerable

people in his world.

That is when I realized...

he and I are the same,

both in heart and soul.

[gasps]

And I see the same is true

for them as well.

-Yes. That's right.

It's the Ninkyo spirit.

-I suppose it is.

-We must hang on.

The Bat Oyabun will find

a way out of this...

with a little help

from a friend.

-Having yourself

some trouble there, B-man?

-[gasps]

-[giggles]

-Harley? What the hell

are you doing here?

-I'm just gonna leave

if you use your mean voice.

Be nice, and I might

just lend you a hand.

Daiana gave me a call.

She said you would need

some saving.

And how could I turn down

a request from her?

-Daiana sent you?

I see.

When she disappeared,

she was actually going

to get you.

-Exactamundo!

-Well, we need to move quickly!

I know even you don't want to

see Gotham destroyed.

-Eh.

-[growls]

-Wha!

[giggles]

Ha!

[straining]

[grunts]

-Alright!

[energy warbling]

-[gasps]

-Hmph!

[energy pulsing]

-[gasps]

[Batwing whooshes]

Hmm?

-Take the Four-Dimensional

Origami System

back to Hinomoto

and destroy it there.

That will enable the

island to slip out of

the space-time fissure

and return your world to normal.

-And that will be the end?

-Yes.

The connection between our

two worlds will be severed.

-Good. Then we'll take

this whole tower back with us.

Wouldn't want it to land

here on your fine city.

-I'll help you.

-No, this is our mess

to clean up.

Ahsa, Zeshika, Bari!

Do your thing!

-Right!

-[roars]

[straining]

-Hyah!

[yakuza screaming]

[energy intensifying]

-[gasps]

[dragon roars]

-Bleh! Wha! [giggles]

-Enjoy this spectacle.

It won't happen again.

A Hagane technique.

The Rising Dragon of Valor.

-Impressive.

[dragon roars]

-Thanks for everything you've

done, Oyabun of the Bat Family.

We will never forget

all your kind efforts.

-Once you return,

your world will no longer

be a land filled with yakuza.

The honorable and the innocent

will live there now as well.

-Sounds much better to me.

-Did I hear that correctly?

You've come around to the

ways of the Ninkyo spirit?

-I saw the real thing...

and so did they.

-Good. Glad to hear.

-Alright then. Let's go!

[dragon roars]

[triumphant music playing]

-Make way! I'm gonna be first!

-I think I'll stick

with lake water.

Turns out the ocean

is really salty.

-You're seriously

just figuring that out?

Better late than never.

-Goodbye, Miss Thang!

-[chuckles softly]

-[giggles, sighs]

-That was a heck of a punch

you gave me.

I'm gonna feel it for a while.

Now then, if you'll excuse us...

[dragon roars]

[gentle music playing]

[energy pulses]

-What was that?

-A space-time pulse wave.

The Four-Dimensional Origami

System has been destroyed.

-Does that mean

we fixed history or whatever?

-Yeah. We're good.

Everything's back to normal.

At least according to hairstyle.

Looks great.

-Mm? Huh?

Aah! Aw, not again!

I can't be seen out

in public like this!

[device beeping]

-[laughs]

-Where are you, Batman?

You're late.

-Yeah. It's time for

the weekly meeting.

-Come on, quit goofing around.

-We know you just

got back from your big

time-traveling

adventure yesterday,

but that's no excuse.

-Get moving.

We're all here waiting on you.

-You okay, Bruce?

Is there a problem?

-[chuckles] Sorry.

I'll be right there.

[slow ballad music playing]

-[singing in Japanese]

-[sobbing]

-Master Damian,

would you care to

try wearing a wig?

I believe it would

suit you quite well

and provide a less

ostentatious look.

-Alfred, leave me alone!

[slow ballad music continues]

-[singing in Japanese]

[singing ends]
