Antimatter Universe Sector 0.
Sinestro was watching OA here; he felt that the Power Ring Corps seemed to have had some unusual activity recently.
The good news was that OA failed to gather more Power Ring members to return to OA. Most Power Rings were accustomed to lording over their occupied Planets and were unwilling to enlist for the conquest of a remote Planet.
Moreover, they had already heard that the Planet named "Earth" originally had a Power Ring, but it was defeated, leading to the failure of the conquest operation.
And they also knew that a Kryptonian lived on Earth.
Kryptonians were infamous and despised throughout the Universe; before Kryptonian's destruction, Kryptonian civilization had once established a vast hegemonic empire in the Universe.
However, just like the Kryptonian of the positive matter Universe, when the Kryptonian Empire's civilization reached its peak, a civil war spanning the entire Universe broke out.
Unlike the restraint of the positive matter Universe, the scale of this Universe's Kryptonian civil war was immense, long-lasting, and there had never been a call for a ceasefire since it began.
We all know that the Kryptonian of the positive matter Universe perished due to resource depletion, the exhaustion of the Planet's energy, and the gamble between "Rao~" and Dream.
However, the Kryptonian of this World was entirely due to the actions of this race themselves—they were annihilated by civil war!
The situation was almost identical to that of the Mars civilization in the Solar System.
In fact, most civilizations in the Antimatter Universe perished due to civil war; these civilizations would self-destruct due to a certain war when they developed to the nuclear technology era.
Not many Planets could survive to develop interstellar civilization; it can be said that every civilization that developed to the interstellar spacefaring level through its own efforts was a favored child of the Antimatter Universe.
Most civilizations must maintain restraint under external interference, cease fire for survival, and continue to perpetuate their civilization.
And in this process, it must be said that OA played a certain positive role.
Although the Power Rings always implemented high-pressure and dictatorial policies for the governance of civilizations, they did, to a large extent, reduce the self-destructive intentions of the Worlds they ruled.
Even the Power Rings did not wish to rule a dead Planet; they needed their World to have a stable and developing society, only then could they better enjoy it.
Therefore, from the perspective of the entire Universe, OA actually symbolized an effective order, and from a macroscopic point of view, its existence was beneficial to Universal civilization.
This was also one of the reasons Sinestro initially chose to join the Power Ring Corps.
At that time, his home Planet was also in a civil war crisis, and a Power Ring descended from the sky, but it had already died before landing.
Sinestro's home was not far from where the Power Ring's spaceship crashed, and he was chosen by the Power Ring to be its successor due to his strong desire for power.
After obtaining the Power Ring, Sinestro thought it was a gift from the heavens to him to end the war.
He temporarily bid farewell to his family and spent ten years ending the chaotic era of Korugar.
Influenced by the Power Ring, Sinestro, after ending the chaotic era, had to use a dictatorial system to rule this Planet, preventing his people from initiating civil unrest again for various reasons.
But he made a fatal mistake; out of curiosity, he synchronized his Power Ring with OA, and in the Power Ring Corps, this behavior usually meant telling everyone that your Planet was the public property of the Corps.
Therefore, when other Power Rings from OA arrived on Korugar, Sinestro was completely unprepared; he naturally refused others entry to his Planet, which caused dissatisfaction among those Power Rings.
Subsequently, Sinestro witnessed firsthand how cruel the Power Ring Corps of OA could be; they massacred all life on this Planet.
Whether Korugar citizens or the flora and fauna on this Planet.
One of the Power Rings, while tearing his wife and daughter's bodies into pieces, laughed and said to him, "Such low-level animals, you'll have as many as you want when you conquer the stars. From the moment you put on the ring, you are no longer a mortal.
You are a God! Sinestro, Gods are immortal, and therefore Gods do not need offspring, nor do they need partners. You must understand, treat these low-level animals as your pets, and do not invest too much personal emotion… "
Their Power Rings called this behavior "re-education," meaning every Power Ring must experience this to understand that emotions are worthless; they, the Power Rings, only need to "conquer" and "rule."
And the Planets and civilizations ruled by them should feel honored to be "favored" by "Gods"… He forgot the rest; Sinestro only remembered the shattered bodies of his wife and daughter before his eyes, their deaths becoming the last straw that broke his sanity.
He had never felt such anger; he brutally killed the Power Ring who was chattering in front of him and dismembered him.
This act naturally violated the laws of OA, and Sinestro was arrested by the Power Rings and put on trial.
He tried to defend himself, but no Power Ring felt that the dead fellow was wrong.
"Everyone went through it," a Power Ring explained to him.
"I killed my own father with my own hands," he said, "I was quite sad at the time."
Sinestro listened in shock as he chuckled while recounting such things. From that moment, he understood that OA was a Planet inhabited by a bunch of beasts.
He must destroy this place; he must destroy the Power Rings!
Killing a comrade was not a very serious crime; therefore, after three months of inhumane torture, Sinestro finally saw the light of day again and continued to serve as a Power Ring.
The choice of Power Rings was made by the Power Ring itself, not by the OA council, so they could only punish Sinestro, but they could not strip him of his Power Ring status.
And the establishment of criminal law was to control the Power Ring's mind by torturing its body. After all, most Power Rings had no willpower to speak of; a little torture would turn them into obedient dogs.
But they were wrong; they misjudged Sinestro.
Sinestro stayed on OA, not only recovering from his injuries but also learning its knowledge, familiarizing himself with its environment, and training in the use of the Power Ring there.
When he felt the time was ripe, Sinestro began his operation.
He attacked the council with raging fury, massacred the Little Blue People there, plunging OA into a leaderless state.
And he also obtained something crucial—the method of manufacturing the Power Ring, which was stored in the brain of one of the Little Blue People.
Sinestro extracted this information from his brain; finally, he escaped from OA, and after wandering the Universe for a long time, he finally found the center of the Universe, Qward.
Although it had become desolate due to the rampage of the positive matter Universe's Sinestro, fortunately, the Qward citizens seemed to have mistaken him for his parallel World counterpart, and they readily fulfilled all of Sinestro's requests.
On Qward, he modified the Power Ring into a yellow lantern ring.
These memories swirled in his mind for a moment, then receded back into the deepest recesses of his memory.
"Arin, Solan, wait for me, I will avenge you…"
