General Ross fell silent. She suddenly remembered that the Justice League, in the other World, was actually a political organization, so she should approach their relationship with the Justice League according to international relations.
It was well known that the United States, when conceiving international relations, most often used zero-sum thinking, and this World was no exception.
Even someone as kind-hearted as General Ross, when it came to political issues, habitually adopted this ingrained way of thinking.
This was not her fault; after all, that was how she had been educated.
Therefore, after much deliberation, she acquiesced to Wilson's decision. She would continue to support her father's presidential campaign.
In General Ross's view, currently, no one in this country was more suitable to be the President of the United States than Wilson.
In today's era of widespread superpowers, only Wilson possessed a sufficiently firm attitude and strong hand to manage the relationship between humans and metahumans.
At the same time, no one was better suited than him to balance the interests of this World with those of the other World.
Bringing her thoughts back, General Ross reaffirmed her conviction. She didn't feel she was wrong.
"Diana, I am very sorry for the trouble we have caused you, but since it has already happened, it is meaningless to pursue whose fault it is. Instead, let's consider how to deal with the remaining criminals…"
Diana was somewhat disappointed with the girl in front of her. Sure enough, all politicians were like this; no matter what their original intentions, at critical moments, they would only make choices that benefited themselves.
Even someone as benevolent as Rose Wilson was no exception.
Dane and Batman's idea was correct: the Justice League must never participate in political decisions, or it would easily become corrupted.
Diana gradually calmed down. She withdrew her hands, and the two palm prints were clearly visible on the solid wood desk.
"Since you've said that, I suppose there's nothing more for me to say. I just hope you don't regret it."
Diana hinted, "Originally, due to the information gap, these people were just a disorganized mess, but now, that might not be the case!"
...In the heart of Antarctica, there was no research station, only a Fortress of Solitude similar to the one in the North Pole.
This was Ultraman's second Syndicate Base, and those people would never have imagined that, at a time like this, the remaining Syndicate members would choose to regroup in this place.
Since each member was being pursued to varying degrees, it took them a considerable amount of time to gather enough people for a meeting.
Lobo, Breakdance, Elongated Man, Observer, Halo, Red Arrow, Canary, Gypsy, and other second-tier supervillains who originally couldn't sit in the top seats, now occupied the positions previously reserved only for the big bosses.
"If you ask me, there are too few chairs here."
Breakdance sat casually in a chair, leaning his upper body back against the seat, with his legs crossed on the table.
He corresponded to Impact from the main World, capable of emitting vibrations and Impact waves from his hands.
"We must find a way; we can't just continue to be passive, or we'll all be caught!"
Observer looked a bit like Starfire from the main World, but her ability was to control human minds through language.
"Let them come; I can crush them into pieces!" Lobo roared, his voice almost shattering the eardrums of everyone present.
Similar to Lobo from the main World, this supervillain also had abilities comparable to that cosmic bounty hunter, but his strength was far inferior, and his intelligence was also very low.
Red Arrow picked his ears and said nonchalantly, "If you ask me, we should just disband. Anyway, Big Boss has already been caught, and with just a few of us, we can't beat the Justice League."
Red Arrow was Green Arrow's counterpart. Aside from being an accurate archer, he was useless at everything else, but he was the one who had the clearest understanding of the current situation.
He was also one of the first Syndicate members to escape. When Mazahs was slaughtering people on the Caribbean Coast, he had already started thinking about retirement.
But the others disagreed. Halo tapped the table, "Even if we stop now, they won't let us go. I heard that bastard Wilson has already sold us out to the Justice League!"
The Syndicate also had a metahuman with abilities similar to Cyborg. He had stolen this classified information from the Federal Government's system.
Upon hearing this, everyone immediately began to curse Wilson, with all sorts of obscenities rising and falling. After a few minutes, Wilson's female ancestors had been greeted dozens of generations back.
The noise made Canary's ears hurt. She let out a piercing shriek, and the huge sound wave instantly suppressed everyone's voices.
The scene instantly quieted down. Everyone's heads were buzzing, and it took a while for them to recover.
"The most important issue now isn't Wilson, but the Justice League! We must find a way to deal with them," Canary said.
Breakdance still had that casual demeanor: "If you ask me, just a few of us definitely won't work. Who among you obeys whom?"
Everyone looked at each other. To be honest, aside from the big bosses, no one here truly obeyed anyone else.
"So, we need Big Boss!"
Gypsy said with a headache, "But Superwoman has betrayed us. She is even more vicious towards us than the Justice League. I haven't heard of any Justice League member killing anyone; those comrades were basically all killed by Superwoman!"
Elongated Man then suggested, "So, we must rescue the other Big Bosses who are imprisoned!"
As for who to save?
The imprisoned big bosses currently on record were Ultraman, Power Ring, Johnny Quick, Ocean Master, and Martian Manhunter.
Everyone didn't hesitate much and unanimously chose the strongest among them, Ultraman!
"So, our goal is to rescue Ultraman. How much Kryptonite is stored in the Base?"
Gypsy replied, "About 200kg."
"That's enough. This Kryptonite can help Ultraman recover some strength, and what we need to do is help him get it in and turn off the Sun lamps."
"Do you know where he's being held?"
The hacker, Steel Man, revealed a wicked smile: "Although they didn't say, thanks to President Wilson, who uploaded that video to the internet, through data comparison, I've found that place."
The video of Wilson beating Ultraman was filmed in prison, which gave him the clue he needed.
"Then it's settled. Everyone prepare; we're going to rescue Ultraman!"
