DC Heroes in Marvel

Zartan is not skilled at fighting, but as a master of disguise, he excels at deception and understanding people's hearts. 

He can completely assume another person's identity, mimicking their every move, speech patterns, and even the minutest details of their life.

In the original movie, Zartan effortlessly became the president, successfully replacing him and using his position to create chaos. However, as a villain, he ultimately met a grim fate.

In this temporary assembly of the Cobra organization team, the uncontrollable Winter Soldiers are excluded, leaving Zartan temporarily in charge of the others.

"Our mission is simple: first, meet Destro; then scatter the four nanoworm warheads and release a message to force Batman out. Finally, we activate the warheads to destroy New York and eliminate Batman!"

Zartan spoke in a calm, measured tone, explaining their objective.

"No, our enemy isn't just Batman," another team member interjected solemnly.

The speaker, Firefly, is a demolition expert from the Cobra organization. 

In addition to his formidable martial arts skills, he is proficient with various firearms, combining the attributes of a soldier and a ninja.

"There are over a dozen superheroes hidden in New York City," Firefly continued. "If we want to activate the nanoworm warheads, we must avoid their surveillance. Otherwise, we'll fail—and suffer the consequences."

Among the group on the aircraft, excluding the Winter Soldier, Firefly and storm shadow were the most powerful. 

As core members of the Cobra organization, Zartan, Firefly, and Storm Shadow stood above the rest, while the others were mere foot soldiers.

The Winter Soldier, however, was a different story. Though not part of Cobra, he was a hired killer from a more shadowy organization—a behemoth that had lurked in the dark for decades. 

In terms of authority and rank, the Winter Soldier far outranked them all.

"So we must act quickly, so fast that no one has time to react," Zartan said confidently. "Once we land, we'll split up immediately. Each person will take a nanoworm warhead and disperse across New York City. Afterward, we'll regroup at the Destro Hotel to spread the news, creating panic across the city and drawing out Batman."

He paused, adding, "Even if Batman isn't the only one who shows up, we'll have the means to confront them."

"Understood."

Firefly and Storm Shadow exchanged a glance and nodded. They shared Zartan's confidence in the nanoworm warheads.

As members of the Cobra organization, they had witnessed the destructive power of these weapons firsthand. 

During testing, the warheads had obliterated an entire experimental site in moments. The fruits of an entire civilization couldn't withstand the might of even a few nanoworm warheads.

The nanoworm warhead, they knew, was designed as the ultimate weapon to annihilate a civilization.

After finalizing the plan, Zartan gazed out of the aircraft's window. The city below shimmered with neon lights, his eyes narrowing in determination.

"We're here!"

New York Airport.

A plane circled in the sky before landing slowly. Inside, the team members stared out the windows, observing the city below. Suddenly, their gazes froze, and suspicion flickered across their faces.

"Why is another plane landing with us?"

"Something's off!"

"It looks like a fighter jet… Wait, do you think that plane looks like a giant bat?"

"A bat?"

Firefly and storm shadow's expressions shifted instantly.

Zartan looked out the window, his heart sinking. "No… that's Batman!"

He had studied Batman extensively, creating a detailed psychological profile. His instincts and the unease growing in his chest confirmed it—this jet belonged to Batman.

It was the enemy.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

As soon as the words left his mouth, multiple barrels extended from the wings of the Batwing . 

Powerful cannon rounds erupted, streaking through the night sky like meteors, trailing fiery tails before slamming into their plane with devastating force.

Rumble!!

A thunderous explosion echoed. The MARS-1 aircraft carrying Zartan and the others suffered catastrophic damage, spiraling out of control.

Luckily, the plane was already in its landing phase, just tens of meters above the ground. Even with the sudden crash, the distance wasn't fatal for the trained operatives onboard.

"Jump out of the plane!" Zartan commanded urgently.

He knew Batman wouldn't let them escape so easily. "He'll keep firing! The plane will explode!"

Whoosh!

Before Zartan finished speaking, the Winter Soldier leaped into action. Without hesitation, he smashed the cabin door with a single punch and dove out mid-air, unprotected.

His judgment aligned with Zartan's. As a super-soldier, his enhanced body could withstand high-altitude impacts without sustaining serious injuries.

Seeing this, the Cobra operatives swallowed hard and scrambled to follow, diving out of the damaged aircraft one by one.

When the plane was still about ten meters off the ground, the remaining team members, including Zartan, storm shadow, and Firefly, jumped. 

Each carried a nanoworm warhead and used their specialized equipment and skills to ensure a safe landing.

Unfortunately, the less-trained soldiers weren't as lucky. Those unable to escape in time met a grim fate as the plane plummeted.

Zartan's fears were justified. Batman wasn't about to let them regroup. The Batwing continued its relentless assault, bombarding the wreckage until the enemy aircraft was obliterated.

Finally, after reducing the MARS-1 to nothing but smoldering debris, the Batwing touched down in front of the scattered Cobra operatives.

Boom!!

The Cobra plane exploded, sending a massive mushroom cloud towering into the sky. Flames roared, illuminating the chaos at the airport.

Even before the explosion, the sight of the Batwing's attack had plunged the airport into disarray.

Di-di-di-di-di!

Alarms blared loudly. Airport personnel scrambled to evacuate as panic spread among the bystanders.

Whoosh!

The Batwing landed smoothly.

Inside the airport, all eyes were on the iconic jet as several familiar figures stepped into view. The tension melted into relief when they recognized them.

"Batman! Cyborg ! Green Arrow… Wait, is that Wonder Woman?"

Airport staff gawked, stunned. Their faces shifted from dread to a mix of awe and reassurance.

"It's the Justice League!" someone exclaimed.

A flurry of phones came out, snapping pictures of the heroes as they emerged. The staff hurried to relay the news to their superiors, though many couldn't resist documenting the moment for themselves.

The destroyed plane burned fiercely, sending waves of searing heat toward the nearby Cobra operatives. 

The oppressive warmth made their bodies feel hot and their nerves tense. The rising smoke mirrored the charged atmosphere surrounding them.
