Sinestro squeezed the Power Ring in his palm, clenching it tightly. The Power Ring quickly quieted down.
He was greatly invigorated, believing he had overcome the Power Ring's temptation, and thus continued to fly towards Devils Island. He still needed one more thing: a super bomb that could blow up OA.
On Devils Island, Dane had already prepared the bomb. He had Deathstorm unlock the nuclear lock of the super bomb, and now Deathstorm, the scientist, was working for him.
Unlike the other Syndicate members, he was merely a mad scientist who enjoyed dangerous experiments. As long as his experiments were controlled, he was generally harmless to society.
Sinestro landed beside Dane, his gaze fixed on a warhead the size of a briefcase.
"This is what you wanted. The bomb and the detonator are separate."
Dane said, handing him a remote control he had just fashioned by hand.
"This is the only thing that can detonate the bomb. Don't worry about distance limitations; theoretically, it will work no matter where you press the button in the Universe.
So, after you place the bomb, hide as far away as possible. I must warn you, this bomb has never been tested since its creation.
Therefore, to ensure it effectively destroys OA, you'd best find a place with abundant energy, a place similar to Yellowstone Park."
Sinestro immediately remembered the place he had previously planned and nodded, indicating he understood.
He seemed to be in a hurry, but Dane hadn't finished speaking, "Don't rush off yet, we still have one more thing to do."
Saying this, Dane suddenly pulled a lantern ring from his pocket—it was the Green Lantern ring he had obtained from the Sinestro of the positive matter Universe.
Sinestro was surprised; Shazam actually had another Green Lantern ring!
"What? I confiscated it from the Yellow Lantern Corps, is that a problem? Extend your ring!"
Sinestro extended his hand as instructed. Dane put on the ring and touched it to Sinestro's yellow Power Ring.
As he expected, this Power Ring was also reconstructed based on the design of the yellow lantern ring.
So, the essence of this lantern ring should also be the power of fear.
It's just that this Sinestro was different from the other; he did not spread fear.
Dane speculated that not spreading fear, yet being able to wield the power of fear and make it manifest in a relatively gentle form, perhaps Sinestro had mastered his inner fear and used this power in reverse.
Recalling what he had said earlier about his past, Sinestro must have overcome the fear of his home being destroyed and his wife and daughter being massacred, transforming it into a burning rage against OA.
Speaking of which, it seems he would actually be more suited to a red lantern ring.
Through the collision of the lantern rings, Dane connected Sinestro's Power Ring with the Green Lantern ring on his own hand, allowing for synchronized sensing.
Theoretically, these two rings should be a pair of counterparts, just like their original owners, so the connection was very easily established.
Sinestro also felt it. He felt... a bit subtle. According to the rumors he had heard from the positive matter Universe, it was Shazam who killed the Sinestro there.
The feeling was truly indescribable... After all this, Dane waved his hand, signaling that he could leave.
He then ignored Sinestro and walked towards the library. Recently, he had found some new directions regarding the spell to travel to Hell, and it was time to verify them.
Seeing that the purpose of his trip had been achieved, Sinestro immediately took the detonation remote and the Quantum Ontology Bomb and flew towards space. In a short while, he had broken through the atmosphere and opened a wormhole ahead.
But after entering the wormhole, he suddenly remembered something.
He seemed to have... forgotten to tell Shazam that Ultraman had escaped, hadn't he?
...After receiving the notification from Green Lantern, Waller immediately informed the White House. At that time, President Wilson happened to answer the phone.
He had been in high spirits lately.
His staff told him that his current vote count far exceeded the sum of all his competitors' votes.
Although "King of Understanding" attacked him, saying his vote count was fraudulent, and although "Sleeping King" assailed him, saying he had no right to run.
Yet, the public's voice and support still pushed him to the highest point in history.
Some were already boasting that he was the greatest President since the founding of the United States.
In this situation, opposition to his re-election was very small, while calls for him to continue as President were very high.
Wilson could almost see the scene of himself, once again, passionately delivering a speech at the presidential inauguration ceremony next year.
However, the news brought by Amanda Waller dealt a heavy blow to his heart, instantly turning the scene before his eyes into a reflection in a well, a flower in Water.
His first reaction was not to worry that Ultraman would come to kill him, but to criticize Waller for inadequate supervision.
And he immediately issued his first order: to blockade this news!
"This matter absolutely cannot be leaked!"
And his reason was quite ridiculous: it was to avoid affecting this election!
He had to first confirm that he could be re-elected as the next President before he could conditionally release the news of Ultraman's escape.
"Waller, you personally handle this matter! Absolutely no leakage of this news is allowed, at least not until the election is truly over!"
Waller reluctantly agreed to the President's request, and as soon as she hung up the phone, she began to curse loudly.
Things like "blind white pig," "stupid lowlife," and some community slang that only Black people would understand, making the staff around her tremble with fear.
She cursed for a full ten minutes!
By the time she had exhausted all her curses, Wilson's ancestors for eighteen generations had each been called out by name.
Waller then let out a long breath, feeling a little relieved.
She tried to look on the bright side; Ultraman's escape wasn't really a big deal.
After all, if he could be defeated by Shazam once, he could be defeated a second, third, or countless times.
If Ultraman was smart enough, he would keep a low profile and avoid appearing in public, which would greatly increase his risk of exposure.
Moreover, since Green Lantern delivered this message, the Justice League should already know about it, and if the Justice League knows, Shazam must also know.
So, Shazam must also be tracking Ultraman's movements now. Thinking this way, at least for the time being, Ultraman definitely wouldn't cause trouble easily.
This is a good thing!
If Ultraman could escape, he wouldn't have to be taken away by the Justice League.
During the time Ultraman was imprisoned, Waller had already ordered all Kryptonite hidden in the North Pole Base and Metropolis to be collected and hidden in a place no one could find.
As long as Ultraman couldn't absorb more Kryptonite, his power wouldn't fully recover, and then even the Federal Government might have a chance to subdue him.
If Ultraman couldn't recover his original strength, then he could be harmed or even killed by nuclear bombs!
Waller thought the plan was more and more feasible; she just needed to refine more details.
And remind President Wilson to try to stay in the sunlight.
She thought about it and felt that General Ross should also be reminded about this matter.
If President Wilson was Ultraman's primary target of hatred, then General Ross should be the second or third target.
Superwoman was her strong competitor; they were the two women Ultraman hated most in this World.
But Superwoman at least still had a fighting chance, and because of Ultraman's weakened strength, she might even have a certain chance to counter-kill him.
However, if General Ross encountered Ultraman, it would definitely be a fatal outcome!
