Chapter 048: Counter-Kill

The members of the League of Shadows, armed with machine guns, advanced on Wang Bo while firing.

He wanted to turn Wang Bo into a sieve.

The Catwoman, hiding in Wang Bo's arms, heard the gunfire drawing closer and couldn't help but ask, "What should we do now?"

"Don't worry." Wang Bo showed no concern at all. "I have a way."

He had just had enough time to wipe out all the enemies confronting him, but he would rather waste time talking to the catwoman and showed no intention of making a move.

Why?

The League of Shadows exists to wait for reinforcements.

And Wang Bo was also waiting for reinforcements, but he was not waiting for his own reinforcements, but for those of the League of Shadows, because he wanted to attract more enemies, thereby reducing the pressure on Batman.

Now the enemy had arrived. But this was definitely not the last, because Wang Bo could hear more and more footsteps rushing toward his location.

The enemy's reinforcements were converging from all directions.

And Wang Bo believed that the more enemies he had, the fewer enemies Batman would face.

Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat...

The machine gun continued to roar without pause, but the bullets could not last forever. A few seconds later, the machine gun fell silent.

The enemy quickly ejected the magazine and replaced it with a new one.

But taking advantage of this gap, Wang Bo rushed out from behind the stone pillar and, in the instant the enemy was changing magazines, charged right up to him.

Whoosh! Whoosh!

Suddenly, two members of the League of Shadows emerged from behind the enemy, each holding a pistol and aiming at Wang Bo.

Bang, bang, bang…

Wang Bo neither dodged nor avoided; he activated the Ripple Breathing Technique to strengthen his muscles and vitality.

He now wanted to try whether, with his steel-like body and Ripple Breathing, he could block bullets.

The next second, accompanied by a clanging sound like steel striking steel, Wang Bo clearly felt the bullets hitting his body being blocked by his own muscles.

The immense impact made Wang Bo grimace, for no other reason than the pain.

Although Wang Bo blocked the bullets, the impact force carried by the bullets made him feel as if his body had been pierced.

But this was merely an illusion.

Bang!

The next second, Wang Bo charged straight at the enemy, ramming the man with the machine gun and sending him flying, then swung both arms to knock the two men who had ambushed him off their feet.

In the instant he flew out, Wang Bo moved like lightning, grabbing the pistols of two men and forcibly wrenching them from their hands.

Wang Bo casually tossed one pistol to Catwoman, gripped the other tightly, aimed at the members of the League of Shadows, and pulled the trigger.

Bang bang bang...

Unfortunately, Wang Bo's aim was not very good; after emptying the magazine, he had only hit two or three enemies.

But Wang Bo had a sense of proportion and did not strike vital areas.

It shouldn't kill anyone.

Compared to Wang Bo's lousy skills, Catwoman was far more formidable, able to kill an enemy with two or three shots. Unlike Wang Bo, she showed no mercy, and the remaining members of the League of Shadows were all forced to flee.

But it was all for nothing; Wang Bo still found them and knocked them down one by one.

As for those League of Shadows members who came to reinforce, they were defeated by Wang Bo using the same method.

After more than ten minutes, Wang Bo and Catwoman had teamed up to take down at least forty enemies.

This was already close to half of the factory's workforce.

And Wang Bo believed that Spider-Gwen's side would definitely not be inferior.

The remaining enemies would not be too many.

However, this group had clearly learned their lesson, aware of the invaders' strength, and they all hid themselves, attempting to strike a fatal blow against the invaders from the darkness.

This was not a difficult task for the members of the League of Shadows.

Because they had long since adapted to the darkness.

But what they didn't know was that this was not a difficult task for Wang Bo either, because their footsteps, heartbeats, and breathing all betrayed them.

Through these, Wang Bo easily pinpointed their positions.

Then he had Catwoman strike, turning the tables.

Catwoman's footsteps were silent; she too was a creature of the night, and her skill at fighting in the dark was no less than that of the League of Shadows' members.

Especially when Catwoman knew the exact location of this group, things became even simpler.

Along the way, it would be no exaggeration to call it a crushing advance.

A few minutes later, when Wang Bo, Catwoman, and Spider-Gwen regrouped, only one enemy remained in the entire factory… Ra's al Ghul.

However, the ninja master was dealt with by Batman, so Wang Bo and the others didn't need to worry.

The three waited at the factory gate for a while, and then Batman dragged Ra's al Ghul out of the factory.

On Batman's chest, there was also a long knife wound.

This slash had split Batman's armor, even cutting through his skin to reveal the flesh beneath.

Wang Bo couldn't help but draw in a sharp breath.

If not for this suit of armor, Wang Bo estimated that Batman would have been cleaved in two.

The Ninja Master was so formidable that he nearly killed the enhanced Batman—a version equipped with high-tech armor, skilled in Ripple Qigong, and endowed with superpowers.

Batman, seeing Wang Bo's astonished expression, said calmly, 'I underestimated my opponent.'

Ever since learning Ripple Qigong, gaining superpowers, and donning high-tech gear, Batman had grown arrogant. When fighting the Ninja Master, he even felt a sense of condescension.

Especially after two successful sneak attacks, Batman felt even more invincible.

Looking at the Ninja Master's terrified expression, he felt that he had completely surpassed him.

With superpowers, I am invincible; he is no longer my match.

This teacher of his, in the end, was trampled under my feet.

But just as he was about to launch a third attack, the opponent, using some unknown method, suddenly pinpointed his location and slashed at him with a iai strike.

Although Batman tried his best to retreat, he was ultimately a step too late and was slashed by the ninja master.

The armor that could block bullets was sliced open by the blade of the Master of Ninjas.

The biting blade tore through his flesh, giving Batman the illusion that he had been split in two.

If he had not learned the Ripple, using it to eliminate pain, staunch the bleeding, and preserve his strength, the outcome of the ensuing battle would have been uncertain, win or lose.

This also woke Batman up from his pride.

He was not invincible.

If he continued to hold this mindset, he would very likely die in this battle, or the next one. So Batman quickly calmed down, and with the help of Ripple Qigong and his superpowers, he gradually whittled away the Ninja Master's advantage, ultimately defeating him completely.

Wang Bo looked at the unconscious Ra's al Ghul in Batman's hands and asked, "What do you plan to do with him now?"

Batman replied, 'Of course, send him where he belongs.'
