Making a statement




"How long has he been at it?" Dick Grayson asked a well dressed older man as they watched Bruce Wayne type furiously on the bat computer only to growl in frustration ever so often. "Ever since I managed to get you two out of that gold Master Dick." The older man Alfred Pennyworth butler to Bruce Wayne said with a tired sigh and while shaking his head, having grown used to this type of thing over the years. "I mean can you really blame him? Both times we've ran into this kid he's pretty much curbed stomped us." Dick said with crossed arms and and a frustrated look on his face as he thought about the past encounters.

Alfred seeing this tried to talk some sense into Bruce. "Master Bruce, maybe it's time you take a break, it's been two days since that bank robbery and you haven't slept since." Alfred tried to talk some since into him which only caused the bat to scowl deeper and let out a grunt. Ever since this kid showed up it seems he's had a never ending headache.

At first he thought he was just some punk who was just trying to make a name for himself while also trying to get some influence in the Gotham underground. Though after a little time his thinking begun to change and believe he was just some victim of Poison Ivy who brain washed him into doing her bedding. That changed though when he participated in the bank robbery with the penguin and unless Ivy was renting him out he was fully aware of what he was doing.

Another thing that worried him was the multiple powers he seemed to have. Being able to turn into diamonds, turning into muck, magnetic abilities, turning things into gold and who knows what else. As far as Batman knew nearly everyone who had multiple powers had some sort of theme or base that their powers centered around a single main power. This kid however seemed able to do almost anything he wanted with no limits.

And with that line of thought came the reminder of the source of his headache. No matter how hard he tries, no matter where he looked he couldn't find anything on who this kid is. There were no dental records, no birth certificates, no school records, even the hair that he collected revealed that there were no matches to any record across the world.

He was taken out of his thoughts when Dick spoke up. "Alfred's right you know? You really do need to get some rest. I can handle anything that comes up while you get some rest."  Nightwing reassured him with Batman letting out another grunt. "I'm not taking a break until I can find something, anything about this kid." He reaffirmed with Nightwing humming in thought. "So what your saying is that if you can find anything about him, you'd listen to Alfred and actually try to get some rest?" The former robin questioned with Batman letting out a tired sigh. "At this point yes." He admitted as he turned to get to work only for the screen to shut off surprising him before turning to see a smirking Nightwing holding his phone and Alfred trying and failing to hide his smile as he held a remote in his hands.

Bruce raised an eyebrow seeing this. "I take it you've got something." He stated as Dick's smirk grew before throwing the phone over to the bat who caught it before watching the news report  that was displayed. "New super criminal Izuku Midoriya. 2 days ago a bank robbery was enacted by the Penguin and despite the GCPD along with Batman and Nightwing there to prevent it the diminutive crime lord was able to escape with millions. When we latter caught up with him he had this to say. "It was all thanks to my new friend Izuku Midoriya, an up and coming crime lord who's here to make his mark." When asked why he thought Midoriya was trying to a crime lord he simply laughed. "The first thing he did was defend Ms.Isley and fought against the bat, it was obvious he was trying to make a statement. "I am here and I am to be feared." When asked if he knew about young Izuku's plans for the future he replied he had no knowledge but hoped the young man would be available to help him again in the future."

As the video ended and Batman put the phone down he saw his former sidekick and Butler looking at him expectantly causing him to sigh. "Fine." He relented causing causing their grins to widened but don't expect me to like it." He countered causing Nightwing to chuckle. "Belive me we never did." He called out as Batman rode the elevator up to the mansion while Nightwing turned on the monitor again and waited for a crime alert.

Deep in the industrial district among rows of abandoned factories smoke bellowed from a few scattered around the district. These factories were responsible with supplying Guns, drugs and multiple other products not only to Gotham, but to other cities as well. These factories were owned by the Black Mask, as part of his criminal empire. The man in question was not happy at the moment thought and it was all due to a single reason.

"That damn brat!" Roman Sionis aka Black Mask roared as he slammed his desk fist onto his desk smashing it into pieces getting dust on the pristine white suit. Black Mask glared down at it as he huffed in anger as he watched the news broadcast focusing on the bank robbery. "I can't believe it! I've been active for years and I'm only considered a B-lister, and then this little shit comes along and after one little robbery everyone thinks he's hot shit! Even though Has-beens like the Joker and Two Face." He muttered angrily while pacing around his office.

"Calm down Mask, throwing a fit won't solve our problems." The great white shark Warren White said. Shark was a deformed man with pale white skin with his nose, lips, ears hair and several of his fingers missing. In addition to this he seemed to have a set of "gills" along with pointed teeth. "And what do you say we do about it? Let this new guy come in and take over?" He questioned his business partner harshly only getting a sneer in return. "Don't be daft of course that's not what I'm saying. What I'm saying is that we have to think about this rationally, and get the upper hand." He growled getting an unseen raised eyebrow from Black Mask. "and how do we do that?" he questioned.

"Simple me friend." A newly arrived voice catching both crime lords attention as they turned and saw a an an older ,slightly overweight, blading man with glasses holding a puppet dressed as a 1920's gangster boss. This was Scarface and The Ventriloquist. "We take something he cares about." the puppet revealed as the ventriloquist showed them a picture of poison Ivy. "Abduction and blackmail I like it." Shark nodded in agreement to the plan, "The only question is how are we going to do it without alerting any of her friends." At this point Black Mask spoke up. again. "Oh, don't you worry about that white I know just the guys."

"So what's your plan now kid? Two face asked Izuku as they sat in the Iceburg Lounge while enjoying the drinks they purchased. "Are you going to stay in Gotham or are you going through with this travel around the country thing?" He finished bringing up a topic that Izuku has been thinking about for a while. Izuku told them he's been thinking about traveling across the country to see what the rest of the country's heroes were like. This was a cover story of course. The real reason he was considering on traveling  was so he could try to find a way back home without alerting anyone to what he was up to. "Honestly I'm leaving tomorrow." Izuku revealed getting a shocked look from the former district attorney. "I just helped out on a major bank robbery and made a fool of the bat. Figured getting out of town for a bit is the best bet." he revealed getting a nod from Dent.

"A good plan, I will admit and not one that's hard to pull off with all you managed to collect during our little outing. A little over 5 million I believe." The Penguin said having come from his office upstairs and taken the glass the bartender offered him. "Yeah I know it's sudden but I do think it's for the best." Izuku said getting nods of agreement from the two men. "Well if that's the case let's enjoy ourselves gentlemen. I'm pretty sure Ms.Quinn is having a girl's night with Ms.Isley tonight, so were the best you company you've got right now." Penguin said with a chuckle and Izuku couldn't argue with that.

However a thought then occurred to him. "So are you two sure the money is safe in this new account with this manager of yours? This Calculator guy, can he really be trusted?" He couldn't  help question having talked to the man a single time over the phone and that was only to set up an account for any money he wished to deposit as well as some papers helping with some other issues that may come up. In response both men nodded. "Yes Calculator may seem sketchy as hell, but he is a professional and makes it a policy to keep his side of any deals and transactions." Two-face informed the teenager who nodded in understanding

For the rest of the day and well into the night the 3 men sat there talking and drinking, well Dent and Cobblepot talked Izuku didn't really enjoy alcohol that much and thanks to multiple devil fruits couldn't get drunk so he only had an occasional glass.

It was just after closing time and he used an Air Door to get to Ivy's floor just outside her apartment. He would have just teleported in, but the last time he did that it nearly gave Ivy a heart attack. Fishing a key out of his pocket he put it into the door to unlock it. This wasn't usual as even when people are home they tend to lock their doors in Gotham. Hearing the lock turn he opened the door while calling out a greeting to Ivy. "Hey, Ivy you back ye-?"

CLICK

BOOOM

Line break.

Posion Ivy groaned as she slowly regained conscious and slowly opened her eyes before looking around and seeing she was in a rather large metal room with nothing it expect a door and the metal chair she was strapped to. "Ah damn it, my head. What the hell happened?" The eco terrorist questioned before her eyes widened as her memory started coming back to her.

Flashback

'Damn it how did I let Harley talk me into going on a bar crawl, and how the hell did she drink more than me? I should be a immune to alcohol poising, I'm Poison Ivy for god's sake.' She finished with a shake of her head as she walked home to her apartment.

"I wonder what Izuku's been up to it's his last night here after all." She questioned herself as she recalled him telling her his plans a couple of days ago and if she was honest with herself she was sad to see him go, as he was the only person other then Harley she knew she could actually rely on despite knowing him for only about about a week.

She was about a block from her apartment when a figure stepped in front her. "Well, well, well what do we have here? None other then little miss Mother Nature herself." The figure said as he approached Ivy only getting a raised eyebrow in response. "And you are?" She questioned only infuriating. "Who am I? Who am I?!" he roared enraged. "I am the fear of man, I am the apex predator ! I am The Electrocutioner!"

Ivy just kept staring at him before the name clicked in her brain. "Oh yeah I think I've heard about you before." while the man question just smirked until Ivy spoke. "Aren't you the guy who got sucker punched by Batman before being shoved out a multistory building? How'd you survive that by the way?" She questioned with the assassin getting his teeth.

"I survived because I am strong." He answered while not really answering the question. "Never mind that. You will come with me now. Black Mask wishes to see you." He answered while not really answering with Ivy just scowling at the mention of Black Mask.
"Yeah I'm not going to see that ass wipe after what he did to my plants. So if he wants to talk to me tell he can crawl up to me own his hands and beg. Can you do that me sparky?" She asked with a big fake smile on her face before walking away dismissively only to duck down with the crackling electricity filled the air just in time to duck underneath a giant electrified fist smashing in to the side of the building.

"I meant now Ivy." He grunted his hands sparking. Ivy meanwhile just scowled in annoyance before noticing a few weeds growing a couple of feet away. With a smirk she raised her hands causing giant roots to emerge from the ground and entangle the would be assassin with him being unable to get out.

"Wow first you fail an assassin and now you fail as kidnapper/ delivery boy. Just can't seem to find the right job can you?" She mocked before starting to walk away.

SQUISH
Poison Ivy gasped in pain as a burning sensation filled her body. "Oh don't know about that. I'd say he makes a great distraction." A voice said behind her causing her to turn and panic at who it was.
"Deathstroke."

"Goodnight  Ms.Isley."  He said simply striking her in the head sending her to the floor and into unconsciousness.

Flashback end

"Slade, that bastard he knocked me out." She muttered to herself before the door in her room opened and in walked Black Mask along with Deathstroke and Electrocutioner. "That he did, and I apologize he and Mr.Buchinsky had to be so rough with you, but the matter in which we needed to discuss was rather urgent." He apologized while not sounding apologetic at all. Ivy was about to retort when something stopped her and she turned to look at Electrocutioner. "Your name's Buchinsky? What's your first name? Chuck?" She couldn't help but question enraging the assassin. "It's Lester!" He roared getting an eye roll from the eco terrorist.

"Yeah because that's so much better." She muttered before turning back to Mask. "So what is this all about? Last time I had checked I had a score to settle with you?" She finished with a glare while Sionis just chuckled. "Well I'll tell you Ivy, You happened to know a certain rising star in our line of work. Naturally we sent out a few of our associates to collect him so we could talk but he seemed determined to have us come to him." He explained and even though his voice was light, everyone could hear the hidden anger in the crime lords voice. "It's then however that an idea came to me. If we couldn't get him here on his own then what about giving him a reason to. The only question was how were we going to do it? What could we take that he would care enough to come here?"

It was then Ivy realized why she was there. "You're Lois Laning me!" She yelled incuriously as she struggled to get out of her binds so she can save herself from the humiliation of being a damsel in distress. "That would be correct Pamela. Of course this is all apart of plan B." Roman admitted getting a raised eyebrows from the other 3 in the room. "And plan A is what exactly." Slade asked with crossed arms having never been told this. "Soon my friends soon." Mask promised. "It's almost show time after all." He told them getting more confused before the door opened and a camera man came in along with a man pushing a TV.

"So before you begin whatever the hell it is you're about to start, mind telling us why you are doing this in the first place? It can't be just because of the attention Izuku is getting." Ivy requested getting a chuckle from Roman. "Hate to say it but you're right. This isn't about that little shit getting a little media attention." Black Mask admitted. "See you know who the police got to the bank while the robbery was still going on. Well the one who tipped them off was me." He revealed. "It should have been perfect, Everyone knows how crazy Gordon's gotten and how little Penguin cares about anyone but himself. It was a fire fight waiting to happen. For the penguin it meant that killing enough police would send him away for life this time with absolutely no way to bribe his way out of jail. As for the commissioner, well with the lose police and what little sense he had left he would be to busy tracking down and wagging war with the "A-listers" while my new business partners and I could safely run our empire from the comfort of the side lines." He finished with a grin as if imaging that situation before it became a dark scowl.

"But then that little shit came along and everything went to hell. "Not only does no one die but with the way he helps penguin escape and the upmost ease he defeated the bat boosted his ratings big time while increasing the penguins since this was his idea In the first place!" He yelled before taking a few deep breathes to calm himself down. "But enough about the past." He said as the camera man pointed the camera at him while the TV was turned on. "It's show time."

"And we're live in 3,2,1 GO." The camera man indicated to Black Mask who suddenly appeared on the screen of the TV. "Good even Gotham, Roman Sionis here. I'm sorry to have interrupted your sport's game, cooking show or what ever else you happened to be watching but I'm afraid I have a matter to discuss with every man, woman and child that just could not wait." He greeted to him audience as he was  being filmed live to every tv, phone and computer in Gotham as the citizens watched on wondering and scared what was coming next.

"As many of you are probably aware a few days ago was the debut of a "super criminal." Where he decided to help our dear quest ms, Pamala Isley here." He introduced her as the camera pointed towards her. "And saved her from the bat and his little sidekick. Now the question all of you are probably wondering is, why am I doing this in the first place? Well that's simple a few days ago I was presented with the opportunity to let's say cut down some of the competition, and I can say without a doubt it would have work had this new guy not been involved."

At the Iceberg lounge Penguin narrowed his eyes in anger as he watched the broadcast knowing exactly what Sionis was talking about. It all made since now actually, he had been trying to figure out who the cops knew about his little operation at the bank.

"Naturally after something like that, myself and my business partners who Ivy recently joined up with were rather displeased by this little turn of events, and sent a few of our men to pick me up so we could have a little chat. Unfortunately he refused and now we have to resort to other methods." He explained before walking over to the tv and to Ivy's shock it showed the inside Ivy's building and to her shock and horror her apartment which had been filled with oil drums and explosives all linked to her front door.

"And this dear viewers is the lesson of this broadcast." Black Mask stated as it showed approaching the door, unlock and open it.

BOOM

"Don't fuck with the Black Mask." He said as the whole city watched the apartment go up in a giant fireball while Ivy just glared murderously at the bastard but then to the 3 surprise a awful smirk appeared on her face as she chuckled slightly. "Mind sharing what's so funny?" Deathstroke asked with a raised eyebrow. "Just keep watching and you'll see." She said simply as they did just and to not only their but everyone's shock Izuku who had been been blasted into the wall with the door was getting up after pushing the door off of him without a scratch and clearly pissed.

"Yeah." Ivy said idly while smirking. "Explosions don't really work  on him."

Ivy glared furiously as he looked around his Haki going full blast as he tired to fine Ivy only to sense nothing. "Dumbass! Why didn't you have your Haki active?!" He created himself knowing full well what the criminals of Gotham were cable of that's to the memories of several devil fruit spirts, and yet for some reason he let his guard down with this being end result. He was cut out of his thoughts when his phone started ringing. Picking it up he saw it was Harley.

Answering Izuku spoke quickly, "Look Harley now is really not a good time.""IT WAS BLACK MASK!" She shouted over him causing Izuku's eyes to widened "What did you just sa-.?" "he's broadcasting right now he just showed the apartment blowing up with tons of hidden cameras ." Harley revealed as Izuku looked around the apartment while using the Glare-Glare fruit to find the hidden cameras while ignoring the fire burning around him. Eventually finding them he used his magnetic devil fruit to crush them into scraps leaving nothing but static.

The 4 criminals watching from the holding cell were silent before Ivy smirked. "Looks like you needed a plan b after all." She stated only to get backhanded by Black Mask. "Shut it bitch!" Buchinsky grab her and take her with us." As Buchinsky did as he was told Slade spoke up. "So what exactly are you planning to do with her?" He couldn't help but ask as the crime lord chuckled. "It's simple Deathstroke. We're going to have a good old fashioned witch burning." He grinned cruelly.

Line break

Back at Ivy's apartment Izuku had just finished putting the fire's out and bringing Ivy's plants back to life again as Harley finished explaining what was going on. "So Sionis is trying to get me to walk into what is without a doubt a trap by taking Ivy who he's most likely going to kill once he kills me? Is that the situation?" He asked while Frank listened in concerned. "Pretty much, so what are you going to do?" Harley asked on the other end. Izuku thought about for a second before speaking again. "Do you know where he is operating from? Like where his current main base is." Izuku questioned. "Yeah its the old industrial district, he's been there ever since he teamed up with Shark and Scarface, so you should probably expect them as well." Harley warned with Izuku stating he'd keep it in mind.

It was just as he was about to hang up. "So do you want any help?" She quesitoned with Izuku staying silent for a moment. "No, this was an attack on me, a show of force. So I'm going to them a show of face myself." He said hanging up before using the Float-Float fruit to fly as he flew towards the industrial district.

Harley meanwhile had just hung up her phone and relayed what she was told to those gathered at the Iceberg lounge who had met up to figure out of to deal with these pest once and for all. "So the boy wants to handle things himself, good for him." Joker said nodding along with the rest of them. "Indeed you can't get ahead in this business If you're constantly relying on others." Two face added in. "True but perhaps there is something we can do." Penguin said with a smirk as everyone listened in interested in what he had in mind.

Line break.

Izuku was hovering above the industrial district his face set in stone as he looked over the district while combing the power of Observation Haki and the Glare-Glare fruit, Voice-Voice fruit and Rumble-Rumble fruit to look over the entire district. Turns out Black Mask was a little smarter than Izuku had originally given him credit for as he and who he could guess was the great white shark and Scarface were hidden off to side in an inactive factory. What he also noticed was off to the side was a small military drone that he remembered Oswald showing him, no doubt belonging to the man who was watching along with the other A-list villains he had met.

"Well let's get started." He muttered to himself before extending both forward. 'Meteor Volcano.' He thought as his arms turned into magma before several huge fist made of magma launched into the air before slamming into factories all over the district igniting them in giant ball of flames.One would think these attacks were random and indiscriminate but that was wrong as thanks to Izuku's multiple sensing abilities he was able to tell what factories were empty but close enough to terrify the enemy.  Cries of panic erupted from all over as the goons either tried to put the fires out or flee while others rushed in trying to save whatever products and supplies they could.

Izuku meanwhile headed towards where Ivy was being held before casually landing and walking right into the building and right in front of a wall of at least 50 men all armed with guns. "Hello brat." Black Mask greeted with a smirk up on a catwalk next to Poison Ivy who was tied to a pole. "And goodbye." He said with a snap of his fingers all the guns roared to life and fired down at the young man. However when the smoke cleared Black Mask's smirk fell and the goons' eyes widened in horror as instead of blood and gore there was simply Mochi putting Izuku back together. "Okay, my turn." He said simply as he finished recovering before placing his hand on the ground. "Mass Mochi Gatling." He muttered before the ground started shifting before to everyone's horror the ground turned into mochi before slamming the goons into the walls and encasing them in the sticky treat. Before anyone could blink Izuku channeled 5% of One for All and seemingly disappeared  before suddenly appearing between Pamela and Roma. "What the fu-!" Black Mask was cut off when Izuku's fist slammed into his mask shattering it instantly and sending him flying into the other side of the building.

Izuku seeing this quickly ran over towards Pamela. "So have a good night with Harley?" he asked with a smirk. "Oh it was an absolute blast." She muttered sarcastically though there was a small smile on her face as he turned his fingers into blades and cut the ropes off. Izuku then quickly picked her up and gently floated them to the ground just in time to run into Scarface. "Well look who's he-Boom" The puppet was cut off when it's headed exploded into hundreds of little pieces thanks to a shot gun shell from Izuku's hand that had become a gun thanks to the Arms-Arms fruit. The ventriloquist just stared vaguely at the remainders of his puppet. "Mr.Scarface." he muttered absentmindedly. "Okay I've seen enough." Shark snarled as he emerged from the back. "This shit's gonna on long enough and it's for me to" He was cut off as he made sniffing noises, Which was impressive since he doesn't have a nose. "Does anyone else smell smoke?" He questioned and indeed the smell of fire was in the air. Izuku's eyes widened realizing what had happened before grabbing Ivy and quickly flying out of the building.

BOOOM

Izuku looked down in horror as the industrial distinct had become a sea of flames. 'How the hell did the fires spread so fast? It couldn't have been more then a couple of minutes since he had entered the building and now the fire wasn't even half this big. Poison Ivy knowing what Izuku must be feeling tired to lighten up the situation. "Well if your goal was to send a message I'd say mission accomplished." She chuckled lightly and nervously thought she was happy to see a small and weak smile as they landed on a roof top a couple of miles away.

As they landed Izuku gently put Ivy down who took a few steps away from him. "Well overall I'd say that was horrible." She muttered before turning to Izuku. "Look this entire night is complete crap so let's just go home and get some sleep? I saw penguin's drone when we were flying, but there's no way they could have seen everything. So since I don't feel like answering all their questions alone and I'm sure  you're not up to traveling for a few days let's just deal with all that shit tommrow." Ivy proposed and Izuku nodded before opening an Air Door directly inside Ivy's apartment. However before they could step through something flew through the air and embedded itself into the ground in front of them. "Oh you've got to be fucking kidding me." Ivy hissed looking at the weapon she'd seen countless times now before turning and seeing The dark knight and his former protege with neither looking happy.

"The only place you two are going is to a cell at Arkham, and I'll see to it that it's for good after that stunt you pulled at the industrial district." Batman growled more angry than Ivy's ever heard him not that she cared at the moment. "Are we seriously doing this now? You had to have seen Black Mask's broadcast, and yet you think we're in the wrong?" Ivy asked incuriously while Batman's scowl become more pronounced. "It doesn't matter because of your actions, The city is being thrown into a panic because of the miles of fire that's now burning through her, and  I'll make sure this is the last time the two of you ever threaten Gotham or her citizens again." The bat promised as he brought out two duel sided beatarang shaped blades while Nightwing brought out his signature batons lighting springing to life.

It seems Poison Ivy's patience had finally run out as after a twitch had appeared on her face as she seemed to raise her hands causing plants from nearby plants from windowsill and roof top gardens to grow and circle them. "You know what fine, if you want fight then bring it on. Ive got more then enough anger for the both of you."

"How about the four of us then as Slade and Lester jumped down from a nearby rooftop. 'I was wondering were those 2 went." Izuku commented Idly while the 2 assassins went to stand with the 2 heroes who watched them distrustfully. "What do you want Slade? I'm pretty sure you wont be getting a paycheck now so why bother sticking around?" Batman asked only getting a smirk from the mercenary in question. "You see that's exactly the problem . Black Mask insisted on paying once the job was done. That can't happen now for obvious reasons." Deathstroke revealed before looking at Izuku. "However turns out our friend here has managed to acquire quite a price on his hand despite being so green. I think part of it's because of the ass kickings he's given the 2 of you." Deathstroke  said getting a scowl from Nightwing.

Before he could say anything however Batman. "We take them alive, got it Deathstroke?" He questioned with the mere grinning "I got it, besides they take some if you bring them in dead." The terminator said pulling out his words. As Buchinsky activated his gauntlets. "I cant believe we're actually doing this." Nightwing muttered to himself.

However before anyone could move Izuku spoke. "Deathstroke you said there was a bounty on my head right?" At seeing the nod he continued. "Tell me, is there one on Ivy's?" This there one on Ivy's?" This time a shake of the head no. "I see." He said before facing Ivy. "Well Pamela thanks for everything I'll be in touch." Before anyone could react Ivy was swept up in a gust of wind and swept through the Air Door which quickly closed behind her.

"Well now that that's taken care what say we do a quick a match up. One your side you've got The Bat." He said looking at Batman. "The Merc." This time at Slade. "And the help." He said looking at Lester and Dick who looked pissed at the label "And on this side We have me the rookie." Izuku said while looking around before smirking. "Don't know about you, but I like my odds."

"Let's you like them when you're dead!" Lester said running forward his gloves sparking full blast as he reeled his fist back for a punch.

SMASH

Only to get a diamond incrusted punch to the face that sent him flying through the air until his back smashed into a wall before slowly sliding down, a pool of blood already forming around him.

"Next." Izuku said simply as the other 3 ran forward trying to face him as unit, their years of experience letting their fighting styles blend and adapt to each other with ease. However that still proved to be ineffective as thanks to Izuku's years in the battle tower plus the memories from the dark knights gave him more then enough knowledge of them.

Nightwing started with a swing of his batons hoping to take out his legs only for Izuku to send a Storm Leg causing Dick to dodge at the least second as Slade jumped over him going for an over head strike only for a Gum-Gum Pistol to connect with his gut, causing him to gasp as he coughed up blood and get send flying back.

During all this Batman had snuck up behind him, and seeing Izuku districted with Slade he chose this as his moment to strike. He was inches from striking his back when suddenly two hands emerged in a bloom of flower pedals and grabbed Batman's arms. In an instant the bat blades rusted over and turned to dust along with his gloves and costume covering his arms. However to his shock and horror Batman's arms also started to rust and he could feel his arms to rust.

Luckily Nighteing noticed this and quickly went for a double jump kick to the face forcing the hands holding Batman to disappear along with rust causing Batman to let out a tiny sigh of relief as he jumped back.

Nightwing meanwhile had a large smirk on his face. "It's about time I actually landed a hit." However it's at this point he noticed under his boot Izuku's bored, uninterested eye before realizing that the boy hadn't budged an inch from the kick. Before he could move however Izuku gripped his leg and pulled him down towards the ground with a diamond encrusted fist aimed right for his stomach.' Oh oh.' Was his only thought before the fist connected slamming him into and through the roof and several floors of the building.

'Well at least we confirmed your little theory now Barbatos.' Izuku thought as he stared down at the prone form of Nightwing.' "It's as I thought as long as were in this multiverse thanks to me most things won't even be able to scratch you, I bet even that Kryptonian can't give you more then a slight headache. However there are a few things we absolutely must test to see how they effect you. I refuse to leave it to chance." The bat god growled getting a nod of agreement from Izuku.

It was then he noticed that Batman was saying something. "I'm sorry could you repeat that please?" He requested getting a scowl of annoyance from the bat.

"I asked why you're doing this? What's your end game?" This was actually the question that annoyed him the most. No matter what angle he looked at it from he couldn't figure out why the kid was doing it. "Why am I doing this ? I mean we all gotta eat. As for my end game, I never really gave it much thought. Though I am just about to leave the city for a while to travel across this great country of ours. You know meet the people, see the sights, help other criminals earn a dishonest buck. For a portion of the grouse of course. I'm thinking 25% That sound good to you two?" He questioned while the 2 men ignored the question as Slade rushed him with his swords drawn and ready to strike only to take a punch to the torso.

BOOM

Smoke filled the air as an explosion went off much to Batman's confusion until the smoke cleared and his eyes widened beneath his cowl at the sight of an unconscious Deathstroke, his chest and bare and charred while his face was badly burnt. "And then there was one. So what are you going to do Bats? try and fight me and probably end up like these 3 leaving Gotham at the mercy of the other super criminals or let me leave the city while knowing there wasn't anything you could do to stop me" Izuku asked before extending arms. "Those are your choices, and quite frankly it's a pretty easy choice if you ask me."

Batman could only grit his teeth as he was forced to admit the punk in front of him was right. As much as he hated to admit it but the boy was right at the moment he had nothing that could stop him and trying to fight him would be a waste of time and resources. So he with one final glare he jumped down the hole to collect Nightwing before calling the Batwing to fly them back to the Batcave.

Seeing them gone Izuku let out a sigh of relief as he felt his shoulders sag. "Thank god that's finally over. ." He said with a shake of his head. "I really do need get out of this city of shit like this keeps happening." "Hate to tell you this but it's like this all over the world, no matter what city you find yourself in. Though I have to ask were you serious about that villain assistance thing?" The killing machine asked with Izuku answered in the affirmative. "Yeah I am, figured it'd be a great way to make a profit while making connections if the Red Death's idea doesn't work." Izuku explained

"But first I need a ride." He said before brining out his cell phone before bringing up his chosen contact. "Hey it's me, look I need ride out of town. Got anything for me Calculator?" "Already done I just finished watching your performance against the heroes and have a private plain waiting for you at the Gotham National Airport. Head there at midnight and tell the pilot where you want to go. Calculator instructed while Izuku blinked in confusion. "You were watching?" he asked getting a laugh from the hacker.

"Indeed and it wasn't just me. Penguin used his drone to livestream your little fight, I think the top number of viewers was around the 10,000 range. A criminals are thinking about hiring you even with what you're charging." He informed with Izuku sighing. At least he wont have to worry about getting the word out. "Thanks Calculator I'll call you when I get there." He said before hanging up and went to find a place to lay low for a couple of hours.

Line break

It was midnight exactly when Izuku touched down on the runway where I single small jet was waiting. A lone pilot stood there before noticing Izuku walking up to him. "Izuku Midoriya?" The pilot asked getting a nod from Izuku. "Calculator told you you'd take me where I want to go." He said and the pilot nodded. "Indeed sir I'm ready when ever you are." The pilot said getting a nod from Izuku. "We leave immediately." He instructed getting a nod from the pilot as he followed him into the plane. "Yes sir, and where exactly are we going?" The pilot asked with Izuku stoping and looking behind him before simply saying.

"Central City."

To be continued

And that's another chapter Down I hope everyone enjoyed. Now a few things. first that little talk with Barbatos was based on the fact that those from Dark Multiverse have a resistance against attacks from those from the main multiverse I figured that since Izuku does have Barbatos, the god of the dark multiverse would be pretty much immune to everything from the other main multiverse even Superman. HOWEVER I do have a couple of things Izuku has a natural weakness to which will be revealed later.

Also the next couple of chapters or so will take place in Central City home town of everyone's favorite speedster Barry Allen aka The Flash. Now I'm not going to reveal why He's going there first but I'm pretty sure a few flash fans can guess.

Also just to confirm it yes Black Mask, Scare Face, The Ventriloquist and The great white shark are all dead. This was the plan from the beginning and yes the term being Louis Lanned is a thing in this universe.

Another thing I want to comment on is the way the villains are acting and how the world treats them like Penguin giving an interview, the villains having their own websites and messages boards and just getting along in general. If you think this would never happened liked like to recommend. "Almost got 'em" From Batman the animated series, "Flash and Substance" From Justice league Unlimited and Harley Quinn the animated series in general.

also I wanted to point out is that as proven in this chapter is the point that even as Izuku rises and becomes a more powerful and well known super villain their will be other villains that oppose him not just heroes.

The last thing I wanted to say is that for the time being I'm mainly going to focus on this story. I just have so many ideas for this story and I can't seem to focus on any other story at the moment.

Well that's all for now.

Bye.
