Meanwhile on other team bases across the globe
Titans Tower
The Teen Titans as well all the others young based group heroes were all together to discuss the message sent by Batman. There was all the heroes that were on that day when Luffy and his crew storm out in the Justice League base and some more (Omen, Tempest, Aqualad (Jason), Hawk, Dove, Impulse, Cole, Gnarrk, Bumblebee, The Guardian, Ravager, Teen Lantern (Keli Quintela), Jinny Hex, sideways, Aquagirl (Lorena), Bombshell, Solstice and Bunker) were all gather together and discussing what they should do now.
''Well, we are screwed.'' Said Static Shock.
''Don't say that!'' Scream Bumblebee. Of course, she was scared but she wasn't going to give up this easily.
''What! How can you expect to beat something the size of a mountain and that defeated superman?!' Asked Bombshell all pised.
''We don't know…'' Said Dove (Dawn Granger) all sad but Hawk (Hank Hall) finished her sentence.
''Yet so we better come up with an idea on how to squash that lizard.'' Said him.
Nightwing was seeing the commotion and worry faces in everyone and decided to calm the room for a few minutes.
''Ok listen everyone. I know this is a lot to take in and trust me I am also a little bit worried for what to come next, but we can't loose hope. We have people in the country giving us information about the enemy, as long they aren't spotted we are good.'' Said Nighwing.
''Of course you said that Dick. Your mentor is the world greatest detective, he will figure out how to end Kaido in a few days.'' Said Tempest.
''Come on Garth, you know this isn't how Batman operate. Besides he still doesn't know how to deal with devil fruit users.'' Said him with a good point.
''The fact that a fruit can give someone that power is horrifying. Also, Luffy told us that after that the person is unable to swim. That would make every water breather here pretty much useless.'' Said Beast Boy looking at Tempest.
''Hey, don't think of us as just fish people. We are more than simple ´´Gills heads´´.'' Said Temepst.
''Garth please.'' Said Omen.
''Sorry Litth.'' Said him to his lover.
''But there is also the other problem. The samurai of that country are also under the dragon side.'' Said Bombshell.
''Yes. The fact that the fat samurai is giving Diana a run for her money, is enough proof that these people are not to be joked.'' Said Cassandra.
''I know Cass, this is hard to imagine.'' Said Donna all worried.
''Plus, this whole mission went southside once Luthor and his gang went there.'' Said The Guardian.
''I don't think my sword is powerful enough for this.'' Said Katana.
''What do you think he could have offered to that Dragon?'' Asked Cole
''Gnaark!'' Said the caveman.
''You have a good point Gnark. Minerals and advance weaponry might be the first step.'' Said her.
''If Kal was defeated by the use of Kryptonite, then he is going to bring more of that toward them.'' Said Supergirl scared.
''I don't know Kara. Kryptonite might be involved more than we can imagined, but I don't see Luthor focusing his entire plan towards one thing.'' Said Conner.
''Come on! Why does that bald head need to also be a part of this thing?'' Asked Impulse.
''What you think he is going after?'' Asked Cyborg
''World domination. Infinite power. A harem?" Asked Ravager with ideas and everyone just glared at her.
''Really Rose?'' Asked Donna.
''Yes, think about it. He might have a line of women just for one night and he doesn't even have to say a word to get them to sleep with him.'' Said her with a smirk.
''This is not the time for jokes!'' Scream Supergirl.
''You can say that again.'' Said Halo all nervous.
The others were only talking about what could go wrong in this mission and all the horror that would be unleashed once Luthor and his forces figure out a way bring Kaido into their world, but many of teens decided to think of some hope for the upcoming events.
''Well at least we have the rest of the League free. Flash and Wonder Woman are still around also and they are going to give at all so Superman can be free.'' Said Nightwing.
''And Green Arrow and Black Canary are also around. They aren't to be joked.'' Said Artemis.
''Hey what about the green Lantern. Mister Jordan is still intact, so we still have lots of good chance to survive.'' Said Teen Lantern floating.
''We know teen lantern.'' Said Jenny with a smile.
''Hey Wally.'' Asked Impulse.
''Yeah.'' Said the other flash.
''Do you think the speed force can hurt that dragon?'' Asked Impulse
''Well in my head I think no. While it's possible that it might make some damage on him, it's not going to be enough to finish him. I just wonder what kind of guys Luthor brought there, if the Reverse Flash is in this alliance, we are in big trouble.'' Said Wally.
''But we need to think of every solution possible if we are going to fight that monster.'' Said Cyborg.
''My uncle told me that we have a good chance. Luffy managed to escape out of death numerous times and maybe this isn't different. Sure, is not going to be easy but we can't loose hope.
''Megan is right. We have a glimpse of what Kaido is capable of. Let's use this to our advantage and take him down.
''So, what now?'' Asked Sideways.
Nightwing was seeing the anxiety and fear on his colleagues faces. He was also worried, because he was going to face adversary which he had no idea on how to fight. But is not because of that he is going to sit around and just wait for whatever Batman says, he wants to be ready.
''I want all of us to train as hard as we can. We don't know if or when we would go to Wano, but it would be great if everyone here was in the best shape possible.'' Said him raising his team mates spirits.
''We need to also know who is with Luthor at that island.'' Said Halo.
''Rose is your…'' Asked Aquagirl.
''no, I tried to find my dick head of a father, but no luck.'' Said Ravager.
''Deathstorke is probably there too.'' Said Artemis.
''We need to get everything that we have ready to rock and load.'' Said Hawk.
''We better start thinking also of battle formation. This is war.'' Said Omen.
''Let's all train!'' Scream Bombshell.
''I will make some daily routines for each one of us. So, we can have a good regime.'' Said Nightwing.
''Good idea dick. I will conduct different teams into combat training.'' Said Starfire.
''Thank you Kory.'' Said Nightwing.
''Let me help in selecting the teams. I will make some selection based on speed, power, stealth and other unique abilities.' Said Cyborg.
''You are the man Vic.'' Said Nightwing with a thumbs up to his buddy.
''what about the rest of the bat family?'' Asked Lagoon Boy.
''I will send this message to them. We need everyone ready when this fight starts.'' Said Nightwing.
''I will sent also the message.' Said Red Robin.
''Me too.'' Said Robin
''Count me also.'' Said Spoiler
''Thanks guys,'' Said Nightwing.
Statistic was still not sure about all this. Yes, all these heroes is a good win for their side, but they have no idea what it could be awaiting them at the other side of the portal. I mean one fruit turned at big guy into a huge dragon, he doesn't wanna imagine what other fruit could do.
''Do…you think we have a chance of beating this thing? I mean…he is a invincible dragon allied with our greatest enemies.'' Asked Static.
Everyone looked at the electric teen and could see the worry in his face. It made sense, Vergil was not used to big hero and villains' wars.
''I don't know Vergil. But we have a good chance. Trust me.'' Said Sideways
''Yeah, even if we are screwed, I won't stop fighting.'' Said Bombshell.
''Me too.'' Said Supergirl.
''Same here.'' Said Blue Beetle.
''Let's all fight that dragon!"' Scream Hawk.
''YES!'' Scream most of the teens.
''We can do this!'' Said Wonder girl.
''We all have dealt with bigger things, and we always won.'' Said Beast Boy.
''Plus, we faced worst things than a dragon.'' Said Donna with a confident smile
''We ended universe level crisis.'' Said Nightwing remembering the time when all the heroes faced against the Anti Monitor.
''And others galactic dictators.'' Said Miss Martian thinking of the Sinestro Corps war.
''Evil destroy God aliens.'' Said Halo thinking of Darkseid and his forces.
''And a psychotic superboy.'' Said Conner remembering his fight with Superboy prime.
''Let's see if that lizard is a match for the army that he is about to face.'' Said Cyborg.
''Yes, we can do this.'' Said Raven.
''let's kick that pirate ass.'' Said Aqualad all excited.
''Right!'' Scream everyone.
The young heroes all started to talk with each other about plans and battle strategy. It will be a while until the main fight but is good to be prepared.
Wayne Manor.
Batcave
Alfred was just finishing dusting off some dust on old books, when he received a call from Dick. He explained the whole situation and told him that him and the other Batman prodigy would be off for a while.
''Understood master Richards. If anything, contact me.'' Said Alfred finishing the call.
He then took out his wallet and saw the vivre card that Bruce gave him. It was still intact, but the fact that the enemy know had more powerful allies made the butler worry for his young master life.
''Be careful there Bruce.'' Said Alfred all worried.
Meanwhile other members of the Bat-Family heard about this turn of events.
Red Hood
''Well, that sucks. But I hope to meet some geishas there.'' Said him seeing the message on his helmet.
Batgirl
''Oh my…what do we get ourselves into?'' Asked her while seeing the message on her phone.
Orphan
''I hope you are ok Bruce.'' Said Cassandra all sad.
Signal
''Oh man...i can't deal with this. I´m going to freak.'' Said him all horrified over Kaido image.
Batwoman
''Well, I leave for a few weeks and we get ourselves into this situation?!'' Said Kate all pissed off.
Catwoman.
''Bruce.'' Said Selina all sad.
Tower of Fate
All the magic users' heroes of this dimension were gather together to discussion this matter. Going to another dimension and fight on a war that isn't on their own Earth. This would cause a huge mess on the Multiverse, but if the villains succeed it might not even be a multiverse anymore. The roast was composed of: Zatanna, Dr Fate, Constantine, Detective Chimp, Jason Blood, Blue Devil, Ragman, Tracy Thirteen and Zauriel.
''So, there we have it.'' Said Dr Fate
''Well, I can say ´´were screwed´´.'' Said Constantine.
''you can say that again.'' Said Chimp.
''Boys, this is not the time for pity jokes.'' Said Zatanna.
''Agreed Zatanna.'' Said Zauriel.
''But we dealt with bigger things. What is the difference on this dragon?' Asked Tracy.
''The difference is…we don't know how a devil fruit works. Apparently they give some unlimited power, I don't know what are the powers of Kaido but seeing is size alone is not going be something so simple.'' Said Jason all serious. If was Etrigan all he would say was to rip Kaido head out.
''Yes, we never dealt with something of this kind.'' Said Ragman.
''Talk about some change of scenario.'' Said Blue Devil.
''Yes, for what I heard those fruits taste terrible and make you pretty much a rock once in water.'' Said Chimp drinking some whisky.
Zatanna was also frustrated. If Luthor sent magical users towards that dimension, then Kaido would have some major advantage in his army.
''Fate, can't we just go there?'' Asked her.
''No, Batman is right. We need to let them do their mission. Once superman is rescued and the other samurai are found we can focus on the war.'' Said him.
''Imagine how brutal this is going to get.'' Said Blue Devil all worried.
''if one fruit turn that guy into a dragon, just imagine his man.'' Said Nightshade.
''Yes, can you imagine what would happen if a normal person ate that thing. Or I don't the God God fruit. If there is one.'' Said Constantine.
''Agreed.'' Said Chimp.
''Look, we still have time. That ninja is going to rescue Superman and Luffy and after that we can concentrate on the war.'' Said Ragman.
''If something happens, we will be there to give some aid.'' Said Traci.
''Let's all hope that Luthor didn't got some of his sorceress to go into his trip. Imagine if Faust went there to help him?" Asked Blue Devil.
''Yes, but I don't think Faust would go there. Plus, Sebastian haven't given us any news on his father where about.'' Said Zatanna.
''Well that either a plus or not for our side. I´m gonna need a bigger bottle.'' Said Chimp drinking a huge amount of whisky.
Fate could see his colleague worried faces and he was also under the helmet.
''I only hope that Superman and Monkey D. Luffy are ok.'' Though him.
Shazam Lair
Shazam ran to his cave where his siblings were awaiting. As a team they need to discuss their next move into this whole situation.
''Hey guys! Did you hear the message? Sorry if I am late, I got held back in class.'' Said Shazam.
''Yes Billy, we heard the message.' Said Mary marvel all worried alongside the rest of the Shazam family.
''Yeah, I was also shocked when I heard it. I wouldn't imagined that to be Kaido.'' Said Shazam all serious.
''I don't know if we can fight him. That image is going to hunt my nightmares for nights.'' Said Darla shaking.
''Darla calm down.'' Said Eugene.
''This is the end.'' Said Pedro.
''Calm down with the ´´Apocalypse´´ scenario. The world was almost destroyed 20 times this year alone and we always managed to glue it together.'' Said Fred trying to calm his friends.
''Yes, but we don't know what could awaiting us in that country.'' Said Pedro.
''Mary what do you think?" Asked Eugene.
''me? Ask Billy, he is the Justice League member and he meet one of the pirates.' Said Mary all serious.
All eyes were focus on Billy as he try to look professional but was doing a horrible job at it.
''Well…sure it looks scary, and we have no idea of what Kaido and the Legion of Losers might be cooking up, but I swear that we can defeat them.'' Said Billy
''So, you really think we have a chance?'' Asked Freedy.
''Look, we faced Sivana, Black Adam, Mister Mind and the seven deadly sins numerous times already. I´m sure a dragon is nothing.'' Said Billy with a smile.
''So, what now?" Asked Darla.
''We will have to train harder. After school, weekends until the Justice League contact us.'' Said Billy super serious this time.
The other members of the Shazam family were surprised by this and all agreed this was for the best.
''Ok, but I will do that for the sake of the samurais.'' Said Freddy.
''Mom and dad will be very worried.'' Said Darla.
''is for the sake of the entire universe.'' Said Pedro.
''We will have to give some big explanation this time.'' Said Eugene.
While the heroes tried to cope out with this decision, their friend the talking tiger Tawky Tawny with a trade full of sandwiches.
''Kids your sandwiches are ready.'' Said the tiger.
Tawny then saw that group had some sad expressions as he wonders what could have happen between the time that he was making those snacks.
''Oh my what happened?'' Asked him all worried.
''We will tell you later Tawny.'' Said Mary picking a sandwich.
Doom Patrol
The weird and unusual superhero group (Chief, Robot Man, Elasti-Girl, Negative Man and Crazy Jane) were listening to Batman message and thinking of what is the next step.
''Interesting.'' Said the Chief Niles Caulder.
''you can say that again chief.'' Said Robot man.
''I still think this isn't going to end up pretty. Especially for our side.'' Said Rita.
''Why haven't they call us soon?'' Asked Negative man.
''because we aren't league members.'' Said Negative man.
''But we are still heroes. They could at least give us the live chat on time and not send later.'' Said Robot man.
''Agreed you rusty can.'' Said Crazy Jane on a sarcastic tone at the moment.
''Look Jane can chill out. There is a lot of tenseion here enough.'' Said Robot man.
''I say whatever I want to say. SARDINE CAN!' Scream her now all pissed.
(Yeah, I don't wanna right the f word here at this story. Keeping PG.)
''Calm down!'' Said the chief.
''Sure…sure.'' Said Jane now being more like a little girl.
''Chief, what is the plan?'' Asked Rita.
Niles wonders what are the gains and overall nature of a devil fruit. He has so many questions but for now they need to think about a future trip towards Wano.
''It seen we will be in war very soon. I want all of you too go train at least 10 hours a day and make improvement on your abilities. I will send a list of ideas to each of you every day, I hope to see that list full fill by the end of each day until we part.'' Said Niles.
''Ok chief. You got it.'' Said Robotman.
''Yes.'' Said Rita.
''I will try do something.'' Said Jane.
''Please let your something not cost us another room.'' Said Negative man.
''I guess we should all start doing warmups.'' Said Robotman.
''Yes, that include you Jane. I want to see you in progress, and I mean all of you.'' Said Niles.
''Fiiiine. If you excuse me, I will be in Rita bathroom.'' Said Jane.
''Not again, this time use the toilet.'' Said Rita all nervous
Miles could only laugh at, but he started to focus on what was most important. Kaido picture.
''I wonder if I can get a devil fruit when we arrive in Wano.'' Thought him.
Freedom Fighters
The American Super team (Uncle Sam, The Ray, Human Bomb, Lady Phantom, Black Condor) saw Batman message and were in much of a shock just like pretty much every other team in the world.
''Dear god.'' Said Sam.
''Talk about trouble in huge size.'' Said Human Bomb.
''Agreed.'' Said Phantom Lady.
''We would never imagine Superman to be capture by the enemy so soon. The pirate maybe but not Superman.'' Said Ray.
''Plus, a dragon of that size is trouble either way. With Kryptonite or not.'' Said Condor.
''And allied with some of our world most nefarious villains. We are in a big stand to face.'' Said Ray.
''Sam what is the next step?'' Asked Human bomb.
The white haired adjust his top hat and think of the best answer to give to his comrades.
''This will be a war. We will face an army that we never thought we would deal with. I don't know how we will manage to tangle against the like of those monsters, but I swear on the stars of our flag that we will be victorious.'' Said Sam.
The others freedom fighters could only smile at that. Just leave to Uncle Sam to inspire them to keep fighting.
''You are right as always.'' Said the Human Bomb.
Jsa
The original superhero team just heard Batman message and of course were mostly scared of what was just given to it.
''Oh my god!'' Scream Cyclone.
''Can you shut up?'' Asked King Chimera.
''with something like this there is no way that I won't.'' Said Cyclone.
''Yes, I can agree with her.'' Said Stargirl.
''Superman was beaten by that beast. How could…'' Said Power Girl all pissed.
''Keep easy girl.'' Said Wildcat.
''Do you think they will torture him? I hope not.'' Said Dr Midnight worried.
''Michael what is your take on this?'' Asked Jay
Mister Terrific was thinking of every solution possible. The problem he didn't have enough knowledge on the Devil Fruits, if he had he could plan some possible ideas. He just heard that sea water make the users weaker, but he figure out that just tossing Kaido in the sea wouldn't resolve their problems.
''I am looking at any ideas possible. While I have some ideas about Devil fruits, I need more test in order to make a counter solution.'' Said him.
''These fruits are really something else.'' Said Werecat.
''If one fruit made a man turn into a giant dragon than we are otherly screwed with whatever else they have in store.'' Said Damage.
''If those things get in the wrong hands.'' Said Liberty Bell worried.
''And I thought they were just goofy ones. I mean come on, that guy is basically a rubber man.'' Said Jakeen thinking of Luffy.
''But he became an infamous man with those rubber powers alone.'' Said Alan.
''Look we need to start thinking of a defense method. This isn't over yet.'' Said Citizen Steel.
''And Batman even said that the ninja one is going to rescue Superman and Luffy so we are good.'' Said Dr Midnight.
''I still can't believe Superman will be rescued by a ninja.'' Said Amazing man.
''We are really into a loop right now.'' Said Mister America.
''I do hope that he is ok.'' Said Hourman.
''Plus, that poor captain was also taken.'' Said Lightning.
''Yes.'' Said Sandman.
''The brat will be fine. For what I heard he isn't to be joke around, although he isn't the smartest one.'' Said Wildcat.
''Yes, this is something really weird.'' Said Atom Smasher.
Jay Garrick was not liking of the turn of events. Somethings tells him that things will get more violent in the future.
''I don't like where this is going.'' Said the original flash.
''Agreed Jay.'' Said Alan Scott.
''Hey buddy I know this sound bad, but we dealt with even worst things before.'' Said Wildcat.
''Is ok to be scared.'' Said Liberty Bell.
''Let's all be at our fullest moment and be ready for what's about to come.'' Said Citizen Steel.
''Indeed.'' Said Amazing Man.
''But we still need to know what that Kaido guy might have at his team.'' Said Atom Smasher
''Right now, let's think he has one of everything at his side.'' Said Mister America.
''So, lets train to the fullest.'' Said Werecat with grim
''Hey Judomaster, can I asked something?'' Asked Stargirl.
The Asian superhero, while not fluent in English could understand the blonde girl and just nod at her.
''Isn't Oden a dish?' Asked Stargirl thinking of the name of the lord of Wano.
The woman in ponytail only nod with a ´´yes´´ visual.
''So, the man really named himself after a dish?'' Asked Hourman all confused
''Well according to Batman testimonial, he was named after Oden because he loved the dish very much. That's what we know but still this is so weird.'' Said Mister Terrific trying to make sense of this.
King Chimera couldn't help but smirk at that.
''Talk about a foul man.'' Said him only to receive a smack on the head by Power Girl.
Knock
''Ouch.'' Said him all annoyed.
''do not talk ill of the death!'' Said her all pissed.
''Yes, that country depended of that man and he was killed in a brutal way apparently.'' Said Stargil all passed
''Look my bad if the man that named himself after a Japanese dish was killed by a tyrannic dragon man and a buffoon of shogun. If he was so super awesome, he would have rid of those two, but he didn't.'' Said King Chimera all angry.
''We don't know the full story yet.'' Said Wildcat.
''Yes chimera, save your rambling after the full backstory is given.'' Said Lightning.
The sorceress only rolls his eyes and decided to apologize because he knows he won't hear the end of this.
''Alright sorry. I take back everything that I said about Oden.'' Said him.
''Thanks.'' Said Cyclone.
''nice job cyclone.'' Said Stargirl.
''Sure.'' Said the ginger.
''what now?" Asked Jakken.
''I guess we should train until Batman and the others return.'' Said Mister Terrific.
''Anyone up to 7 hours of intense training?" Asked Citizen Steel.
''Please Citizen steel.'' Said Stargril.
''Not right now.'' Said Cyclone.
''Agreed, we are going do our pace before going military school.'' Said Damage.
''You will be please once you try out my work out regime.'' Said Citizen Steel.
''Oh good.'' Said Stargirll with sarcasm
''Is ok, you can go on your own pace.'' Said Citizen Steel.
''Thanks.'' Said Courtney all happy.
''I don't like this. I don't even want to go to a place full of samurai.'' Said Jakken.
''is ok Jakken to be scared. But think of the pros, that samurai girl is cute.'' Said Thunderbolt going out of the pen referring to Okiku.
''Are you kidding?! You saw how tall she must be! That girl must date NBA players.'' Said Jakken
''Hey, don't treat that girl like a freak.'' Said Cyclone.
''Although she is cute. She doesn't have much on top.'' Said Damage.
''Yes, that orange hair one could give power girl a ran for her…'' Said Werecat thinking of Nami. But before he could finish both him and Damage got a punch in the head by powergirl.
Knock
'ouch!'' Said the two.
''thanks Karen.'' Said Cyclone.
''man are such pig.'' Said Power Girl all pissed.
''You know that I while I don't approve this behavior, I don't wanna see this team doing comedy routines.'' Said Jay a little weird out.
''We know Jay.'' Said Power Girl with a laugh.
''And I…'' Said Alan still a little shy. He had come out a few months and he was still very timid about this whole situation.
''Yes, Alan and we are still proud of you.'' Said Power Girl.
''Guys, this is a touching moment, but we have important things to deal with.'' Said Hourman.
''Sorry.'' Said Alan.
''let's all train!'' Said Citizen Steel.
''Yeah, first one on the treadmill.'' Said Magog.
''Hey no fair.'' Said Atom Smasher.
''I Have a test on next week. I need to study; can I leave early?''' Asked Stargirl.
''Well too bad kid. You are superhero and this is priority at the moment.'' Said Wildcat with a grim.
''Uh…'' Said Courtney all annoyed.
The JSA all went to train to their fullest until they were ready. Most of the big base teams would be training nonstop until the main team comes back from Wano. The fact that Kaido would have advance technology, plus Luthor aim was a lot to be worried about. This would be a level Crisis events and the only thing missing was that the sky of Wano turned red. Whatever happens in the future in the land of the Samurai wasn't going to be pretty.
Hi guys, so here we have the end of the check up on the main teams of the DC Earth. This was mostly me being a fan boy and showing who I like and want on the teams. Don't worry you will see them later, because after another chapter we will be focusing on the Straw hats for some long time. I don't know how long Wano is going to be, but I think is near to surpass Dresserosa. I also wanted to make this chapter longer but I got tired, next chapter will be also a check up, but it will a be short one touching in other places and then we will get back to Wano start Act 2.
Let's all see what happens next. See next time.
