Having been forced underground by Waller, John reveals how he has been organizing a crusade to bring her and the Agency to justice. Promising to see Bruce once again, he sends his followers to Riddler's lair and attracts the Agency's attention. Several hours later, Batman arrives to investigate the area, after hearing reports of the Agency having a possible lead on John's location. After slipping past agents present at the sight, he stops one of them from executing one of the gang members. With his presence known, the agents accuse Batman of helping John escape and preventing the cause of justice. Firing upon him with their stun pistols, they incapacitate the vigilante, only for one of them to have their gun knocked out of their hands by a steel object. Within seconds, John arrives, now dressed as a clown, and attacks them. Helping Batman up, the two battle the agents, easily defeating them. Introducing Batman to his gang members, John reveals that he is now using another name for his exploits: "the Joker". As they discuss his methods, they fail to notice one of the agents calling the Agency to summon an asset in. Moments later, a helicopter drops of a metal crate, which opens up to reveal Bane. Noticing that he seems more powerful than usual, Joker tells his followers to flee whilst he and Batman fight the former Pact member. Engaging Bane, the two learn that Waller has enhanced Venom and are overpowered by the criminal. After Bane kills either one of Joker's gang members, the agent controlling him or both, Batman and Joker are able to defeat him by either ramming him with the latter's car or dropping a disused smokestack on him. Bane reveals Waller accused Joker of murdering Riddler, leading Joker to lose control and attack Bane. Batman subdues Joker, and Joker suspects she is responsible. Batman calls Alfred for medical aid and they flee the scene. Alfred arrives in the Batmobile and is introduced to Joker. Waller demands Joker and the LOTUS virus, and Bruce decides to destroy the virus. Joker agrees to hand it over, and Bruce retrieves blackmail on her. They head to the GCPD headquarters to meet with Iman Avesta, who they plan to use to confront Waller. Arriving on the rooftop, Batman tells Joker to hide and finds Iman talking on the phone to someone. Making his presence known to her, she hands over a file she has complied of all of Waller's illegal actions. The document reveals that she is responsible for SANCTUS's survival, as well as cover ups of her illegal operations and Riddler's true identity. After finishing his investigation of the document, he gives some advice on what she should do. As Iman leaves, they discover that Waller has been present and aware of their meeting. Scolding Avesta for her actions, Waller accuses Batman for crossing the line and breaking his rules and demands he hands over the virus. He reveals that he has destroyed it and learns that she is using former members of the Pact as assets of the Agency. Revealing the members of the team, including Bane, Quinn and Catwoman, Waller tries to threaten him into surrendering, only for him to send the document compiled by Avesta. Fearing what would happen if the information was made public, she agrees to leave Gotham, though Batman can make an additional demand for her to either release Catwoman (who has been captured during the raid), send Quinn and Bane to trial, or let Avesta leave without legal action. If any of these demands are made, Waller will promise to go through with the demand, if Batman hands over Joker. In a meeting, Joker scolds Batman for not going far enough or betraying him. He attacks Waller for claiming Riddler's murder, forcing her to attack him. Batman joins the fight, fighting Bane, Quinn, and Catwoman while stopping Joker from attacking Waller. The Agency arrives, cornering them on the roof. Joker throws two bombs, and Batman chases after, throwing one out of range but being caught in the second blast. Thrown through a hole created by the blast, Batman is knocked out after becoming non-fatally impaled on a loose iron grid. During the time he is out, Joker captures Waller and escapes the scene, with the Agency chasing after him. Upon regaining consciousness, Batman, with help from either Catwoman or Iman (depending on which bomb he chose to go after), is helped off the rod and calls the Batmobile to take him back to the Batcave. As he and the ally leave the scene, he once again loses consciousness, due to blood loss.
