[British and American] Jason Wayne's Struggle

"I am Iron Man."

With these words, the whole world was in an uproar.

Tony Stark became the first superhero in the world to reveal his true identity, and thus became the focus of the whole world.

Many masked vigilantes thought this guy was crazy, and most importantly, Tony crossed that line from the beginning.

He kills people, he did it when he took down a terrorist base in the Middle East, and the government's view on it is that he did a good job.

SHIELD and certain factions of the military are happy to cover for him and are quite envious of his mecha technology.

Tony is standing on a delicate line at this time. He has no intention of joining the Justice League, nor is he a member of the government, nor is he a member of the military.

No one can define him into a certain category.

However, Tony had his own ideas. He did not attend the offline gathering of ice fans on April 4, and he never participated in such activities. He just went to the Gotham Cemetery on August 27.

It has been two years since Jason Todd passed away. If he were still alive, he would be undergoing emergency training before the Vancouver Winter Olympics, and no one would doubt that he would win the championship. After all, the world records he left behind have not been broken until now.

"If the Joker died, he wouldn't be dead."

Tony stood in front of the tombstone without taking off his sunglasses. He was wearing a high-end suit and handmade leather shoes, as if he could attend a party in the next second.

Bruce walked forward and placed a bunch of sunflowers in front of the tombstone.

Many people sent flowers to Jason on this day, including roses from the mutants and roses from Bart, who has become a super popular teenage star in the NCAA and is preparing to join the NBA after graduation.

Dick is fighting crime in Blüdhaven, but he should find time to watch The Phantom of the Opera on DVD and sing his "Think of Me" at home.

"Tony Stark, what do you want to do?"

Since this man returned from the Middle East, he shut down the arms trading department, openly walked the world as a superhero, and killed terrorists wantonly. What does he want to do?

Tony took a sip of vegetable juice: "Do the right thing."

"You know what? I was in the Middle East, and I was saved by a kid, but when I was unconscious, I saw Jason, and I saw him saving me, and I thought it was a sign that he had let me come back, so I should do something for him."

Bruce immediately thought of the child in the golden desert and the beautiful blue bird.

Dick, Barbara and others had seen Jason when they were on the verge of death, and were pushed back to the world by him. Bruce knew very well that there was magic in this world, and perhaps Jason's soul was still watching them, so he believed what Tony said.

Tony turned around and said sarcastically, "You only know how to put those dangerous prisoners in Arkham, but they are not just mental patients, they are terrorists! Their existence is a huge threat to the lives of others! A young man with a bright future died at the hands of a terrorist, and you didn't even seek justice for him!"

"That bastard is still living happily now. He can come out and hurt innocent people anytime he wants!"

Bruce stared back at him firmly: "This is Gotham's business, and you'd better know what you are doing. You kill people. What's the difference between you and those lunatics?"

"So you want to arrest me?"

Tony stretched out his hand, then immediately retracted it; "Oh, you forgot that you are Bruce Wayne now. You have no right to arrest me. Moreover, the whole world knows what I did, but no one thinks I am guilty. The death of the terrorist is a good thing that everyone is clapping their hands for. Rhodey even said that someone is going to give me a medal."

Bruce: "I think if Jason were still here, he wouldn't want to see you kill anyone."

Tony shook his head and laughed, "Don't be so sure, old man. You can't speak for your son. That kid never tells others what they should and shouldn't do. He has his own ideas."

"Sometimes I feel like you don't really know him, or that he's been glorified in your heart as he dies."

Tony left there, feeling relieved after confronting that old friend he had always disliked, but everything he said came from his heart.

Jason Todd was willing to show closeness to Tony when Tony was still an arms dealer, just because Tony established a welfare drug rehabilitation institution.

As a man who can see through people's hearts and the world and is extremely wise, Tony is 100% sure that Jason is kind, but he will not reject the idea of ​​stopping killing by killing.

What to do next?

Tony thought, he could have a Stark Industries Expo, people would love him, and then do something else before palladium poisoning sent him to heaven.

……

"You are an excellent warrior, qualified to inherit the Great Caste Blade. It will be sealed in your soul and can only be unsheathed when you encounter a true demon."

Following the whisper, Jason opened his eyes in a pool. He stood up and breathed in the air, feeling like a new person.

The leader of the Great Caste Warriors, a woman called the Allmother, Dakela, who had taught Jason for a year, asked, "Are you still angry?"

Jason responded firmly: "Yes, I am still angry."

"I still want to kill the Joker, so that my guardian, mentor, and my family's lives will no longer be threatened by that madman all day long. I want to put an end to all the misfortunes. That's why I'm practicing with you."

Dakila sat by the pool, leaning on a cane, looking calm.

"Life is long. It shouldn't be all about revenge, Jason. You should come to terms with your body, your past memories, your hatred, and your anger. Otherwise, even if you kill the Joker, you won't be able to get rid of the pain."

Jason sneered, as if mocking himself: "I never thought that I would be free one day."

The great castes first appeared in the Homo sapiens period. A tribe touched the "Black Pool" and gained powerful strength, becoming the Nameless. Among this original tribe, there was a woman who resisted the seductive and corrupt nature of the "Black Pool" and became the earliest great caste. That was Dakola.

For tens of thousands of years, the big castes and the nameless had been fighting each other until the big castes took refuge in seclusion deep in the Himalayas.

In general, whether they are from the big castes or the nameless ones, they are no longer considered human beings. They are a kind of semi-ghost existence.

Jason is the only human in this group. He has good qualifications, but is unwilling to join the non-human side, so he insists on completing the training given to him by the big caste in a human body.

This is a bit strange, but Jason actually has never liked his body. No matter how tall he grows over time or how good his appearance seems to outsiders, as long as he thinks of that deformed part, he knows that he will always be different from others.

But he insisted on being a human being, and after soaking in the Lazarus Pool, he no longer had the problem of dysmenorrhea. As long as he had enough tampons, he didn't even have the idea of ​​going for surgery.

Perhaps it was because Darkra's repeated words in his ear, "You should make peace with yourself," had some effect, especially since Jason had been living with this body for so many years.

The most important thing is that he doesn't trust most people now, so naturally he can't let those people touch his most private secrets.

Currently, the only people who know that he has two genders are Batman, Alfu, Nightwing, Dr. Leslie, Talia, Ra's Sky and Dakola (the researchers who once implanted embryos for Jason were destroyed by Talia).

"Young man, it seems that what you need most right now is time."

Dakila's eyes seemed to see through everything. She waved her hand, indicating that Jason could go away.

"Go ahead, you little bastard. You've been bothering me for a year. Now it's time to bother someone else."

Before leaving, Dakola whispered in Jason's ear, "What do you think of Talia?"

Jason's mouth twitched: "What's the point of asking this?"

Dakola laughed, patted Jason on the shoulder, and said meaningfully: "Young man, Allmother will give you one last piece of advice. You must learn to cherish the person in front of you. Otherwise, if you miss her, you will never find her again. That girl is very special to you."

Jason: "..."

Are all you old people so gossipy?

Dakola once sent him into the secret place of the Great Caste for a trial. After passing that trial, Jason became qualified to inherit the Blade of the Great Caste. He also had a glowing tattoo on his chest. It was said that the side effects of the Lazarus Pool also began to disappear from his body.

Jason admitted that he began to recover some of his memories, but that didn't mean he had to acknowledge what happened with Talia.

At present, his memory has recovered to the part where he tried to escape for the first time but was carried back to the brainwashing machine by Lei Xiao. Maybe Talia is sincere to him, but her love is not even enough for her to give Jason freedom.

Being brainwashed again and again feels really bad, and he still has headaches from time to time.

After leaving the Big Caste, Jason returned to the human world again. The first thing he did after coming out was to look at the major events that happened in the outside world during the year he was in the Big Caste.

"Tony Stark? Iron Man? An arms dealer turned clean energy pioneer. Wait, I think I have some of their stocks. I'm making a fortune..."

"And where did this big green thing come from?"

Jason was flipping through the documents page by page while Talia was sitting at the desk reviewing files. He felt that this scene looked familiar.

She fed Xia some food.

"How is it? Do you feel that the world is changing so fast and the situation is unpredictable? By the way, I like your tattoo. My love, you look great now."

When he was sent to the big caste, he was still a boy with a teenage look, but when he came out, he had become a handsome man with a perky butt and long legs. His whole body became fuller and more muscular, especially his chest, which had grown more. Talia liked it very much and teased him a few words.

Jason fell silent. After a while, he said without raising his head, "When are you free? Come and get a divorce with me."

Talia paused, she looked up and said in astonishment: "You want to divorce me? Do you remember?"

"It's not complete yet. You know, my brain has been washed many times."

Jason pointed to his head and said seriously, "I've thought about it for a long time, and I still feel that this marriage is not the right one to start with."

"Do you think our marriage is a mistake and now you want to correct it in this way?"

Talia stood up, her expression carrying a hint of anger and a strong sense of oppression. An ordinary person would have been terrified to see the daughter of the devil like this, but Jason was not afraid of her at all.

He looked directly at Talia without fear: "I don't know how to face you now because my memory is incomplete, but I know that whether I choose to love you or not after I recover all my memories, our relationship should not be this kind of... marriage based on deception."

Talia narrowed her eyes.

After a while, she sighed and grabbed her hair helplessly. This action looked familiar because Jason would also do this when he was upset. He felt a little subtle in his heart because of this action.

"If this is what you want, my love, I will do it, but..."

Talia walked over to Jason and held his shoulders.

"Don't keep me waiting too long. You still owe me a promise."

The word "agreement" made Jason's heart skip a beat. He thought that he woke up from a sleep and found that he was married to Talia and that Damian was his son. This was enough to make him collapse. What kind of agreement had he made with Talia?

How much trouble did the "he" who lost his memory leave him? !

Then he was grabbed by the collar and kissed by Talia.

Talia looked at him, her voice slightly hoarse, very sexy: "Divorce is fine, I just ask you, will your heart beat faster for me?"

Jason has feelings for Talia, okay? Ever since Najim began to revive from within him, he knew that the feelings he had with Talia must have been genuine.

Najim really loves Talia, and Jason recognizes that Najim is a part of him. Even without Najim's memories, just standing in Jason's current position, he has to admit that Talia is really charming.

Talia finally went to get a divorce certificate with him. Jason, who was only 19 years old but already had two certificates, a marriage certificate and a divorce certificate, in his hands, felt complicated, but he quickly decided not to worry about it anymore.

He was going back, back to Gotham, back to his mother who was sliding into the abyss, and once again use his life to hold up the city, just as he did before his first death.

He began to make preparations, and before leaving the Middle East, he only had time to take another look at the unconscious Yin Sen, and to secretly glance at Damian.

The child grew very fast under the influence of the instruments and serum. A year ago he looked only four years old, but now he looks six years old.

It was October of 11 and autumn had arrived. Jason had seen the Batmobile for the first time in this season. Driven by hunger, he bravely removed Batman's tires and was later picked up by Bruce Wayne and taken home for adoption.

Now, he is returning to Gotham in the same season.

The moment he stepped onto this land again, the familiar cold autumn wind made Jason subconsciously close his coat.

He told the city: “As long as the world lasts, there will be errors, and if no one rebels, they will continue forever.”
