Leaving Huntress behind, he got back in Gotham City and get along with Damian Wayne.

At Batcave, Dick removed a hidden bomb from Damian's skull with a device he got from Midnighter, which was planted by the Parliament of Owls during "Robin War".

Then they both head to a hijacked ship in Black Sea, which belongs to a parliament member and busted it from Kobra. Afterwards, they are sent over to Norway on their next assignment, when Raptor surprises Nightwing by asking if he wants to bring the Owls down because he is also playing a long game here.
