Chapter 56: ck & White’s Battle
”Da-da-da …”
Suddenly, without warning, a helicopter opened fire at the top of the watchtower, and the bullets spread all over the ce, forming a tongue of mes.
Such a sudden change immediately separated Batman and Phantom Kid. The two quickly used the wall at the top of the tower as a cover, to avoid the helicopter’s strafing.
”Unit Seven, cease fire, immediately! Who gave you permission to open fire? Who gave the order?”
Gordon’s face ckened and growled at the inte.
”Report, it was Sheriff Foley who gave the order.” (The actual name of the sheriff in The Dark Knight Rises)
”Foley, didn’t I tell you not to just fire randomly without my orders?”
Gordon scolded the Sheriff harshly.
”Chief Gordon, how is this random firing?”
Foley smirked, seemingly disrespecting Gordon.
”Our targets are: a thief who dared to steal Her Majesty’s most precious gem, and the other is a super wanted viin who killed Harvey Dent eight years ago. Wouldn’t it be a good thing to eliminate these two felons in one fell swoop?”
”Commissioner Gordon, are you worried that I will take the credit alone?”
Once he reported, the surrounding GCPD members, regardless of their positions, had instantly gazed at him with such ugly expressions on their faces.
Foley was rmended to the GCPD by the mayor himself. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have been promoted to his current position this quickly.
Even a pig can see that, if that wasn’t for Gordon’s special ce in people’s hearts, he would have been reced by Foley ages ago.
Foley is not particrly popr amongst the GCPD, and he is indifferent towards this.
In all honesty, Foley’s ability is not that bad. He deserves the position of sheriff. He has also arrested many felons. Otherwise, even without the mayor’s rmendation, he would have made it.
The only reason that makes him ipatible with the GCPD is that:
He does not like Batman.
He is the number one Batman hater among anti-Bat people. All because he is a fanatic supporter of Harvey Dent. As a result, it is natural for him to hate on Batman, who “killed” Harvey Dent.
Of course, He is more likely doing this for the credit.
After all, there are no more than five people in the whole of Gotham who clearly know the truth about that year. And although countless citizens would like to believe in Batman, their voices are simply insignificant.
”Watch your words, Foley.”
Gordon said with a serious tone.
”The watchtower has been established for more than half a century, no one can guarantee its solidity. Rashly using firepower on it may cause the innocent citizens here to be killed, and the me will all be on you!”
Foley bristled. He obviously is not a fan of Gordon’s rhetoric. The helicopter attacked the top of the tower and not the tower itself, how could this possibly copse the observation tower.
”I know you all love that Batnerd so much that youpletely overlooked Harvey Dent’s death, but that doesn’t mean I’ll choose to give up on arresting Batman!”
After leaving these words, Foley angrily walked away.
”Hey Batman, it looks like the gang down there doesn’t like you.”
Clinging to the wall, Mathison looked at the opposite side of Batman and said with a soft smile.
”But yeah,pared to me, a regr thief, the superviin who killed Harvey Dent carries a lot more hate.”
”Say, if you caught me, where are you going to send me? ckgate or Arkham?”
Suddenly, Mathison asked with great interest.
He wanted to see, from Batman’s perspective, how dangerous he really is.
”The criminals in ck Gate Prison are generally murderers sentenced to life imprisonment. And you are not qualified to enter the Arkham Asylum. The GCPD prison is enough to let you know how to be a good citizen.”
Batman said indifferently.
Mathison frowned, as he knew that Catwoman was imprisoned in ckgate prison. They were both superviin thieves, why would he only stay at the GCPD’s prison?
Well, Catwoman’s record of escaping from prison is just as impressive as her record of stealing, but that doesn’t mean she’s superior to Kid.
Certain rumors say that, in Gotham, the prison you are captured in represents your status among the viins. If you have not been sentenced at least in Arkham, you dare not say that you are a viin from Gotham!
Phantom Kid felt offended.
Two people’s eyes collided together in the void, and invisible sparks were burning in their eyes.
The second round of the encounter began!
This time, it was Mathison who took the lead tounch an attack. He rapidly flung his hand, sending a dozen ying cards flying out at the same time.
Each ying card was reinforced with magic, making it extremely sharp.
Batman judged in a split second that Kid hasn’t, until now, possessed such fast hand speed and amazingbat efficiency.
Batman rolled at 47° degree of his direction, that was the only gap between the dozen ying cards.
However, just after he crossed from the gap, these dozen ying cards flew several meters away, then strangely flew back to him!
Not only that, their speed and even the surrounding environment be slower.
That’s right, Mathison once again used Bullet Time. Although he obtained the most wanted killer, Carlos’s lifetimebat experience, apart from his supernatural gun skills, his melee ability is really not very strong. He is not proficient in any martial arts.
The only meleebat ability he knows is the ability to assassinate with a dagger.
The Mutual Aid Association’s melee ability is really not a good one, at most they can only abuse ordinary people.
That’s why, in front of Batman, Mathison’s fighting level seems so average.
So besides magic, the only ability that Mathison can rely on is Bullet Time.
After all, with these fancy gadgets like shbangs and smoke bombs, Batman also has the same style of equipment and much more advanced stuff!
Mathison’s heart rate quickly broke through 400 BPM, and everything around him once again slowed down countless times.
At the same time, his stamina began to flow quickly.
Bullet Time does not bring harm to the body: and once the stamina is consumed too much, the ability will automatically be gone.
This means that Mathison must fight quickly.
Upon seeing the dozen ying cards in the delicate control of Kid’s technique flying back, Batman’s way to retreat was sealed.
Although Batman’s movement was tens of times slower, in Mathison’s line of sight could, he clearly saw that his pupils were on the left side, and his head was also leaning to move left.
This means that while the bullet time was in effect, Batman spotted the threat behind him!
”What a terrifyingbat instinct …”
Mathison shed a drop of cold sweat. Compared to Harry Hart, Batman is way too good!
”Pfft! Pfft! Poof!”
In the end, Batman was only hit by three ying cards, which hit his right shoulder, right rib, and right calf, while the rest were blocked by the hard material of the cape.
As for whether Batman intended to use the cape to cover his back, that is left unknown.
”I request an audience with Her Majesty the Queen!”
Under the watchtower, at Queen Elizabeth, the UK crowd had little-to-no information about Batman, who had been missing for eight years and just found the right time to appear again. They just think that the ck & White battle is so interesting.
Until a man wearing the GCPD sheriff’s costume arrived and dered that he had something important to request from the Queen …
