However, Ultraman's ability to see through him with his X-ray vision at any time would be problematic.
"I can handle that," said Dane.
Under everyone's gaze, he suddenly changed his face and his entire attire, transforming into Owlman.
Batman's eyes flickered: "I didn't know you had this ability."
"Owlman" changed back to Dane, who explained briefly: "This is an ability I gained in this World."
Among the metahumans Mazahs killed, one possessed the superpower of changing appearance, which was perfect for this situation.
"This way, as soon as Ultraman approaches me, I can take him down on the spot."
"What about us?"
Hal pointed to himself and the others, wondering if everyone else would just wait, except for Plastic Man and Dane.
"You go deal with Martian Manhunter. This guy rarely appears in the Fortress of Solitude."
Martian Manhunter was the least ambitious of all the Syndicate leaders, and apart from Power Ring, his influence was the weakest among all the Syndicate leaders.
But even so, his strength was not to be underestimated. Martian Manhunter possessed the same abilities as Martian Manhunter, and he didn't have the weakness of being afraid of Fire. Dane felt that fighting this guy would take some effort.
So, to deal with Martian Manhunter, Dane specially prepared a luxurious setup for him, having the remaining members gang up on him.
Martian Manhunter was not hard to find; he stayed in the city he guarded and went nowhere else.
With the plan set, Dane then looked at Wilson again.
"While we are in action, Mr. President had best prepare a special prison. The prison for Ultraman will need many Sun lamps."
Wilson readily agreed. Without Dane's reminder, he had already prepared special prisons for those guys long ago. Now Power Ring was being held in one of them.
Unfortunately, Johnny Quick was not handed over to the government. Batman and Dane did not trust the U.S. in this World; they equally despised all parallel U.S.s.
With the plan decided, everyone dispersed to carry out their tasks.
Dane drove the warplane he confiscated from Superwoman, taking her and Plastic Man, who had transformed into Alexander Luthor, to the Syndicate's Base.
Ultraman's "Fortress of Solitude," like Superman's in the main World, was built in the North Pole, which was currently in a period of natural polar night, a very advantageous place for Ultraman to exert his Power.
According to Superwoman, Ultraman had a total of two Bases, one in the North Pole and one in the South Pole. When the North Pole was in polar day, he would move to the South Pole.
Dane glanced at Plastic Man and said, "You'd best make a piece of tape appear over your mouth."
He was currently playing Luthor, who had lost Mazahs's Power. If it were the full Mazahs, Ultraman would probably see through him at a glance.
A piece of tape immediately appeared over "Luthor's" mouth, completely covering it. It was unclear what part of his body he used to transform it.
His gleeful expression was quite an eyesore.
At the same time, Dane also transformed into Owlman. The warplane quickly arrived at its destination.
Superwoman, as previously discussed, notified Ultraman through the Base's communication system, telling him that she and Owlman had captured Mazahs.
On the large screen, Ultraman looked at "Owlman" and Superwoman through the screen, somewhat suspicious.
"How did you find him? I've been searching, but I couldn't find him at all."
Dane possessed Owlman's memories, so it wasn't difficult to imitate his demeanor. He smiled slightly and said, "Mazahs hid on the Moon, so you couldn't find his trace on Earth."
Ultraman suddenly understood, but to be safe, he cast his gaze towards the sky, right in front of Superwoman and "Owlman," who both acted as if they didn't see it.
Ultraman saw the signs of damage on the Moon's surface caused by the battle, and he believed "Owlman" and Superwoman's story to some extent.
But he still asked, "Why didn't you notify me first?"
Superwoman didn't know how to answer, while Dane calmly said, "Last time we all went out, but we failed. I carefully analyzed the reason, and I'm afraid it's because we had too many people, which led to our Power being too dispersed."
This was his polite way of putting it. In reality, many people simply went through the motions, and countless people retreated as soon as they saw Mazahs's incredible bravery.
Ultraman could hear the subtext: more people were just a burden, and it was even possible that Ultraman himself was a burden.
Because fighting on the Moon, there was always a chance of being exposed to the Sun.
Understanding this, Ultraman felt a bit annoyed, but he had to admit that their considerations were reasonable.
"Did you catch him?"
"Owlman" and Superwoman brought "Alexander Luthor" to the screen.
Plastic Man, as per Dane's request, was pretending to be asleep.
Ultraman seemed to be looking at the screen, but in reality, his vision had already penetrated the screen, directly looking inside the North Pole Base. He found no problems.
Don't blame him for being so jumpy; he had already heard about what happened in Central City and Coast City, and he was at a time of extreme suspicion.
Thinking that Mazahs had been caught, Ultraman couldn't help but wonder if he could take Mazahs's Power for himself.
This was not impossible, after all, before obtaining Mazahs's Power, Alexander Luthor was nothing more than an ordinary person.
Thinking of this, he couldn't sit still, so he said to the screen: "Wait for me, I'll be right there!"
He worried that not only he had this idea, but Owlman and Superwoman did too. If either of them gained Mazahs's Power, it would surely threaten his position.
After Ultraman finished speaking, he immediately closed the large screen, leaped up, and flew into the sky, heading towards the North Pole.
"Owlman" and Superwoman looked at each other and smiled. Dane looked up, his X-ray vision penetrating the Base, seeing Ultraman speeding through the sky above the North American continent.
Seeing that the other party had taken the bait, he immediately notified the other Justice League members to take action against Martian Manhunter.
