A red flying sword!
Weapons, as a means to enhance strength, are not as effective as directly strengthening physical attributes, but Bai Ye still had to say two words: Awesome!
A red quality, regardless of what it was, would most likely be a good thing. It was just that Yong Zhen Nan Huang's appearance was a little strange, a giant stone shaped like a sword...
However, as long as it could be used, it was fine. Moreover, judging by the literal meaning of its effects, Yong Zhen Nan Huang had no direct attack capabilities, but each of its effects was incredibly powerful.
The only drawback might be Heng Dao Li Ma, not because of its effect, but because...
To trigger the effect of a 50% reduction in power for any offensive means and a 150% increase in effectiveness for defensive means, the prerequisite was...
Having defensive means!
Bai Ye pondered for a moment. He didn't seem to have any defensive means, so this was rather awkward.
But even ignoring this effect, Yong Zhen Nan Huang was still very strong. And since the red gashapon had appeared, Bai Ye figured he wouldn't need to spend a God Stone Fragment to draw a golden gashapon.
After all, with Yong Zhen Nan Huang and the Poison-Poison Fruit, having two red gashapons by his side, Bai Ye felt it should be enough to deal with most situations for now.
"Well done!"
Thinking this, Bai Ye couldn't help but pat Fatty's shoulder, deciding to save the last chance for a rainy day. God Stone Fragments were something to be saved whenever possible.
After drawing the gashapon, the next thing to do was to wait!
Bai Ye glanced at the wall clock and murmured, "It should be starting soon, right?"
...
In the Crime City, at the Investigation Bureau!
In a dark room, the Joker sat alone on a chair, his hands bound by handcuffs. The face, painted with greasepaint, looked somewhat eerie and sinister under the dim light. 138 reading net.
Suddenly, the Joker seemed to realize something, turned his head towards the camera on the side, and grinned.
Director Gordon couldn't help but frown, looking at the Joker's calm demeanor. He had a bad feeling about this; this wasn't the attitude of a criminal who had been arrested.
But the Joker was already locked up, so what could possibly go wrong?
That detention room was specially made, with reinforced walls. Inside, besides steel bars, it was inlaid with metal plates. Forget firearms, even a rocket launcher might not be able to blast it open. The door of the detention room was a vault door of the same specification as a bank vault, bulletproof, corrosion-resistant, high-temperature resistant, and freezer-resistant, making it almost impossible to open by violent means.
Director Gordon thought this, calming himself down and telling himself that everything would be fine, that the Joker certainly couldn't escape.
Just then...
A hoarse voice suddenly sounded behind Director Gordon.
"Let me in!"
In an instant, the agents standing around Director Gordon were startled, drawing their guns and aiming them behind Director Gordon, then sighed in relief. The man who had suddenly appeared was Batman.
Director Gordon couldn't help but ask, "Why are you here?"
Batman pointed to the monitor and said, "Him. Let me in."
Director Gordon heard the urgency in Batman's voice and couldn't help but ask, "What happened?"
"Rachel and Harvey are missing. He must have done it!" Batman showed some anxiety, suddenly grabbing Director Gordon's coat and shouting, "Let me in to question him, or it will be too late!"
Director Gordon reached out to stop the agents who were about to step forward and said, "Calm down, calm down!"
Batman took a deep breath and said, "It's too late if we delay further. Let me in to question him."
Director Gordon nodded and then said, "Open the door."
Batman said, "Turn off the camera."
"This is against regulations..." Director Gordon hesitated, but then nodded and said, "Turn off the camera."
Soon, Batman entered the detention room.
The Joker looked up, smiled, and waved, "Hi!"
The next instant, Batman's fist landed on the Joker's face, knocking him to the ground. Then he grabbed the Joker and slammed him hard onto the table.
Batman, grabbing the Joker by his collar, roared, "If you want to kill me, then come at me!"
"Kill you? Haha, no, no, no..." The Joker laughed exaggeratedly. "Why would I want to kill you? If I kill you, what will I do? Keep extorting those gangsters? Or play with those thugs? No, I don't want that. It's you who make me more complete!"
Batman roared, "You're just a piece of trash who kills for money!"
"You think so?" The Joker chuckled. "Don't be like those people, saying the same things as them. In their eyes, you are also a monster, just like me. Now, it's only because they need you. When they don't need you anymore, they will desperately avoid you. Their morals, their principles, are all rotten jokes. You know, we are not monsters, just superior..."
Batman showed impatience, grabbed the Joker's clothes, and lifted him up, saying, "Don't give me this nonsense. Tell me, where are Rachel and Harvey!"
"If you want to play this game, you have to follow the rules..."
Bang!
Batman swung his fist without hesitation.
"Choose one of the two. You can only choose to save one..."
Bang!
Batman's fist was still the response to the Joker.
"Are you planning to save your little girlfriend, or support your ally in fighting crime? Hahaha, look at you getting angry now..."
Bang!
Batman raised his fist and swung it down again. Blood flowed from the corner of the Joker's mouth.
"Alright, alright, I'll tell you, but you have to make a choice," the Joker said. "He's on 25052nd Street, and your little girlfriend is on Exe Street."
Bang!
Batman knocked the Joker to the ground with another punch and then quickly walked out of the detention room.
Director Gordon, who was waiting at the door, followed Batman and asked, "Which one are you going to save?"
Batman said as he walked, "Rachel!"
"I'll go save Harvey." Director Gordon called out to the other agents. "Go, go, go, everyone grab your gear and come with me."
...
Bai Ye stood by the window, looking in the direction of the Investigation Bureau.
Soon, the silence of the night was broken by piercing sirens. Shortly after, Batman sped out of the Investigation Bureau on his Bat-cycle, followed by a large contingent of police cars, all speeding off in different directions.
"It's finally starting."
Bai Ye curved his lips, then moved away from the window and patted Fatty's shoulder.
Bai Ye said, "What's your name?"
Fatty was stunned for a moment and replied, "Diahk."
"Okay, Diahk, it's a pleasure to meet you," Bai Ye said with a smile. "I wish you a happy life."
After saying this, Bai Ye walked towards the door, bowed elegantly to Fatty, and then closed the door, as if he had never appeared.
