Chapter 205: The Dawnbreaker!!!

On the rooftop of the Gotham City Police Department, all Gordon received was a corpse!

He stared at the vigilante flying away, his eyes burning with fury!

Two days later, the Dawnbreaker's actions finally broke the last thread of restraint within Gordon's heart!

That night, green light shone into the Penguin's luxurious suite!

The crime lord's eyes filled with terror, and he immediately ordered his men to open fire!

Bruce merely sneered!

He remained motionless, displaying astonishing control over his power ring!

He had actually rewritten the ring's operating system, his extreme willpower twisting the Green Lantern ring's functions!

In the next moment, amid terrifying laughter, the ring released endless darkness as hollow as Bruce's heart!

The darkness swallowed the surrounding space and began devouring every living being in the room!

Bruce stood silently within it. For the first time, he felt a sense of peace and belonging!

Oa!

Thousands of Green Lanterns from different sectors of the universe stared in horror!

How could this man still be considered a Green Lantern!?

Even the violent members of the Red Lantern and Sinestro Corps did not possess darkness this profound!

And he had rewritten the ring's operating system!

Was that not something only the Guardians could accomplish!?

Had they not witnessed it personally, they would never have believed it!

A dozen seconds later, the light returned. Only one terrified penguin remained inside the room.

A twisted rage reappeared on Bruce's face as he said hoarsely:

"You murder people in my city and use drugs to corrupt their souls."

"Everything you do disgusts me!"

"I will tolerate you no longer!"

As his words fell, Bruce grabbed the Penguin's short, obese body, smashed through the building, and flew beyond the atmosphere!

He released his grip, leaving the man floating helplessly in space.

In the next second, a green meteor materialized from nothing and struck the Penguin at terrifying speed!

A cloud of blood instantly erupted!

On the police headquarters rooftop, Gordon—who did not even receive a body this time—finally refused to compromise any longer!

He knew his next words might enrage Bruce, but he was not afraid. Someone had to stand up and defend justice!

"I know you suffered a tragic past, but that does not justify your violence!"

"They may deserve punishment, but you cannot—"

Before he could finish, Bruce interrupted him coldly:

"I heard you have a daughter."

"Heh. What a shame."

"She's about to become an orphan!"

In an instant, sinister green light erupted from the ring and reduced Gordon to a pile of remains!

S.H.I.E.L.D.

"He has begun slaughtering ordinary people without hesitation?"

Nick Fury released a heavy sigh!

When absolute power was placed in the hands of a twisted and misguided will, it created a horrifying monster!

Fortunately, Carol had never become like this!

Bruce's expression returned to calm.

But at that moment, a message suddenly emerged from the power ring!

Warning!!

Bruce Wayne of Space Sector 2814, the Green Lantern Corps is approaching. Cease all killing immediately and await judgment.

A dozen minutes later, thousands of Green Lanterns surrounded Bruce from every direction!

Even five Guardians of the Universe had personally arrived!

On the beach.

Bruce fell into deep thought.

He had never imagined that such a powerful organization existed within the universe.

Judging from their behavior, they appeared to belong to the side of good.

He did not know whether Earth currently had a Green Lantern.

If one existed, they needed to establish contact as soon as possible!

When darkness arrived, every ally would be essential!

One of the blue-skinned Guardians looked sternly at Bruce and said:

"You are a deeply troubled Lantern."

"Your extreme will has generated an incomparably distorted power of darkness!"

"That power has corrupted your ring. If it is not stopped, it may contaminate the entire Central Power Battery!"

After speaking, the Guardian waited for Bruce to remove the ring voluntarily!

He had brought the entire Corps to ensure that nothing could go wrong!!

Yet while facing thousands of Green Lanterns, a strange smile appeared on Bruce's lips!

He had deliberately remained here because he had been waiting for this moment!

"Oh? You enjoy relying on superior numbers?"

"Isn't that a little naïve?"

The Guardians could not understand why he refused to surrender, but in the next second, their expressions transformed into horror!

Bruce raised the hand wearing the Green Lantern ring and spoke in a chilling voice:

"Blackout protocol initiated..."

"Gentlemen, the green light will abandon you!"

In an instant, Gotham disappeared, replaced by a dark green abyss!

Within that dim radiance, every Green Lantern discovered that their rings had gone dark and no longer granted form to their imaginations!!

Immediately afterward, countless roars echoed through the darkness!

One enormous, grotesque creature after another appeared, each covered in warped tentacles!

Outside the screen, countless viewers sucked in cold breaths!

Without the screen separating them from those creatures, their sanity would have been depleted in an instant, leaving them hopelessly insane!

On Oa!

Even the Green Lanterns, whose wills were extraordinarily powerful, could not suppress their fear!

How could a Green Lantern ring summon such indescribable monsters!?

Only Sinestro shook his head.

No!

The problem was not the ring!

It was that man!

Bruce Wayne's twisted will was far more terrifying than they had imagined!

Eerie shrieks echoed!

The monsters began attacking the Green Lanterns in a completely one-sided massacre!

Several minutes later, corpses had accumulated into mountains!

A dying Guardian pleaded with Bruce:

"That darkness will destroy everything we cherish."

"Stop. There is still time to turn back..."

Bruce merely sneered before manifesting a claw and tearing the Guardian's head from his body!!

Yet even after the slaughter, he felt no pleasure. He continued to long for his parents just as painfully as before.

At that moment, the agony within his heart nearly tore apart his already fragile mind!

Bruce no longer wanted to be a Green Lantern!

He shot into the sky, left Earth behind, and traveled to Oa, where he plunged himself into the chaotic energy of the Central Power Battery!

A dozen seconds later, the Central Power Battery went dark!

A thin man wearing a bizarre visor emerged from within, a black bat emblem displayed across his chest!

A terrifying aura of darkness radiated from his body as a sinister smile curved across his lips:

"With darkness black, I choke the light!

No brightest day escapes my sight!

I turn the dawn to midnight!

Beware my power—Dawnbreaker's might!"

From that moment onward, he was no longer Bruce Wayne, the Green Lantern!

He had become...

The Dawnbreaker!
