Downtown Metropolis
Doomsday was roaring.
The creature was enormous. Jagged bone spikes jutted out from under its skin, and its blood-red eyes burned with pure destruction.
"RAAAHHH!!"
It smashed a high-rise building with one punch. Debris rained down like a meteor shower.
Down below, Superman—Clark—turned his head from the ruins.
He looked a bit roughed up, but his eyes were still full of determination.
Doomsday let out a savage laugh and grabbed a huge slab of concrete, lifting it high.
The massive stone came crashing down!
"BOOM!!!"
In the blink of an eye, a dark figure appeared and stopped the stone slab with one hand!
Rubble flew everywhere, and shockwaves rippled through the air.
Clark looked up, pupils shrinking in disbelief.
Jiro was standing in front of him, holding the slab in one hand.
"You…" Clark was stunned.
Jiro didn't turn around. "Step back."
The next second—
"BOOM!!!"
He suddenly flung the slab like a cannonball—it slammed right into Doomsday's chest!
Doomsday was blasted back dozens of meters, crashing through buildings before finally stopping.
Jiro didn't give it a chance to recover. He vanished in a flash and reappeared right in front of Doomsday, kicking it hard!
"BANG!!!"
Doomsday's body was sent flying again, smashing straight into a power plant. Flames exploded into the sky!
Clark stood frozen, stunned by what he'd just seen.
Kara and Wanda landed beside him.
"You okay?" Kara reached out to steady him.
Clark finally snapped out of it and looked at her. "You're...?"
"Kara Zor-El," she said with a gentle smile.
"Another Kryptonian."
Clark's eyes lit up with shock and joy—but there wasn't time for greetings now.
"RAAAHHH!!!"
Doomsday climbed out of the rubble, roaring furiously!
Its wounds were healing at lightning speed, and its aura was even more violent than before!
Floating in midair, Jiro narrowed his eyes. "As expected... it evolves."
Wanda frowned. "Physical attacks aren't enough. We need magic or energy-based hits."
Kara clenched her fists. "I'll try heat vision."
Clark took a deep breath and took to the sky again. "Let's go together!"
Jiro nodded, golden light blazing in his eyes. "Let's end this fast."
Three Kryptonians teamed up to take on Doomsday!
The beast roared, shaking Metropolis to its core. Just as it was about to charge—
"BOOM!!!"
A golden figure slammed down from the sky, landing right in front of Doomsday!
Dust swirled as Wonder Woman, Diana, stepped out, holding her divine shield and sword pointed at the monster.
"Looks like I got here just in time," she said with a confident smile, full of battle spirit.
At the same moment—
"WHOOSH!"
The Batwing sliced through the sky, the guns on its wings glowing blue.
"ZAP!"
A golden bolt of lightning stopped abruptly—The Flash, Barry Allen, appeared next to the group, waving cheerfully.
"Hey! New face?"
Kara nodded. Clark smiled, "Barry, try not to run too fast this time."
Barry grinned. "Relax. I'll go easy this time... probably."
But Doomsday wasn't about to let them chitchat.
"ROARRR!!!"
It suddenly stomped the ground and charged at them!
"Go!" Jiro shouted the command.
Kara moved first.
Her eyes blazed with light—two beams of scorching heat vision blasted straight into Doomsday's chest!
The creature staggered back a few steps, growling as it raised its arms to block—tanking the hit head-on!
Clark followed right after!
He rocketed forward and punched Doomsday square in the face!
"BAM!!!"
Doomsday's head snapped back—but it swung a claw in retaliation!
Clark pulled back just in time, but still took a glancing hit to the shoulder.
Wonder Woman jumped high into the air!
She raised the Godkiller Sword, divine power surging through the blade, and slashed down!
"CLANG!!!"
One of Doomsday's bone spikes was sliced clean off—but the creature roared and slammed its arm out, forcing Diana back several steps!
Wanda's hands glowed with chaos magic.
Crimson energy swept across the battlefield—she lifted a multi-ton boulder with sheer force and hurled it down on Doomsday!
"BOOM!"
The beast stumbled, but tore through the rubble in a frenzy and kept charging!
In Jiro's palm, a magic energy sphere formed—spinning rapidly before he thrust it forward!
"BOOOOM!!!"
Doomsday was blasted hundreds of meters away, smashing through several buildings!
The Batwing unleashed full firepower!
"PEW PEW PEW!"
Special armor-piercing rounds struck Doomsday dead-on, erupting in massive explosions!
The Flash turned into golden lightning!
He zipped behind Doomsday and gave it a mighty push!
"BAM!!"
The monster was knocked off balance and slammed hard into the ground!
At this moment, the battlefield froze in time.
Superman, Supergirl, Wonder Woman, Scarlet Witch, Jiro, the Flash, and Batman—
Seven superheroes struck at the same time, and Doomsday was completely overwhelmed, roaring in rage!
It was like witnessing a world-class masterpiece come to life!
But then—
Doomsday's body suddenly started convulsing violently. Bone spikes grew like crazy, and its muscles swelled up.
"It's evolving!" Diana shouted.
"Don't give it the chance!" Clark gritted his teeth.
Jiro had a rough idea of how powerful Doomsday really was now. He started formulating a plan.
But with so many people around, he figured he'd let them feel like they were doing something too.
With that in mind, Jiro launched himself forward—and the very next second, he kicked Doomsday hard.
BANG!
Doomsday was sent flying by Jiro's kick—he hadn't even hit the ground yet—
When suddenly, the entire space around them shattered like glass!
The next second, everyone was pulled into a bizarre, twisted world full of light and color.
"Where the hell are we?!"
Barry (The Flash) widened his eyes as he looked down at the upside-down city and the folding buildings beneath his feet. He was totally stunned.
Wonder Woman, sword in hand, scanned the surroundings with caution. "Some kind of space magic?"
Clark and Kara exchanged a look, both seeing the shock in each other's eyes.
"Jiro… you can use magic?" Clark looked at him in disbelief.
Jiro hovered in midair, golden magic runes flowing around his body. He replied calmly, "Just a little trick."
Batman's communicator had gone dead instantly.
Bruce said in a low voice, "Looks like our new friend's been hiding a lot."
"ROOOAARR!!"
Doomsday's furious roar yanked everyone's attention back!
It had fallen from the sky and crashed onto an upside-down skyscraper. Now it climbed up, snarling in rage, its glowing red eyes locked onto the group!
"Let's take it down first!" Jiro gave the order again.
This time, inside the mirror dimension, no one held back.
Superman and Supergirl unleashed their full strength, hammering Doomsday with brutal punches.
BAM! BAM! BAM!
Blow after blow sent Doomsday stumbling backward. Its bone spikes shattered under the force!
Wonder Woman's divine sword slashed through the air, each strike radiating brilliant golden light.
CLANG!
She chopped off one of Doomsday's arms—but just a second later, it began to regenerate!
"It's healing faster now!" Diana shouted.
The Flash zipped around Doomsday like a golden bolt of lightning, moving too fast for it to track, throwing it off!
"Hey, big guy! Over here!"
Doomsday roared and swung its claws—but Barry was already behind it, shoving it hard from the back!
WHAM!
Doomsday staggered, almost losing its balance!
Wanda's chaos magic exploded into full power.
With her hands pressed together, the buildings in the mirror dimension twisted like living things. Huge stone pillars shot up from the ground and slammed into Doomsday!
BOOM!
Doomsday was smashed into a warped wall—but a moment later, it tore through the rubble and burst back out!
"Clark, hit its knees! Diana, slice its spine! Barry, keep it distracted!"
Everyone moved in perfect sync. Doomsday roared non-stop but couldn't break through the assault!
Up above, Jiro formed hand seals as a golden magic circle lit up beneath Doomsday's feet.
"Spatial Lockdown!"
VMMM!
The air around Doomsday suddenly solidified. It flailed its fists wildly, but it was like punching invisible walls. No matter how hard it charged, it couldn't move an inch!
"ROARRR!!"
It screamed in fury—but this time, it was truly trapped!
Everyone slowly landed, eyes fixed on the raging beast now sealed inside a prison of space. At last, they breathed a sigh of relief.
Barry dropped to the ground, panting and grinning. "Whew! Now that's what I call an intense mission!"
Diana sheathed her sword and looked at Jiro with genuine admiration. "Your magic is really something."
Clark flew over and clapped Jiro on the shoulder with a smile. "Looks like we owe you one."
Wanda walked up beside Jiro and smiled playfully. "Not bad, huh? I did pretty well too, right?"
Kara glanced at Jiro, something clearly on her mind.
Batman stayed silent, lost in thought. He hadn't even participated in the fight.
Jiro waved his hand, dissolving the mirror dimension. "Doomsday won't die unless we hit its weak points."
"....."
