African?

Hulu was initially surprised, his eyes widening, before a sad expression appeared on his face, like a flower struck by frost, instantly losing its luster.

But soon, the sadness gradually dissipated, and his expression became relieved.

"It's alright. Even if the wizard is using me, the power is real. I believe my father will lead Kambak to freedom."

Hulu said, his voice firm and powerful.

Black Adam lowered his head in remorse. He had failed to lead Kambak to freedom; his heart was filled with anger and hatred, and he was ultimately sealed away by the wizard.

"A born hero, Hulu, that's my assessment of you. If you hadn't given your power to your father, you might have truly led Kambak to freedom and prosperity."

Kino continued speaking, his eyes filled with admiration and regret.

Kino then recounted the rest of the history.

"However, after Black Adam obtained the Shazam Power, he destroyed the royal court and incidentally saved the world. Although he himself may not have known it, the wizards knew it was a fact."

The wizards sealed your father away for five thousand years, during which time he remained fully conscious.

Unable to move or speak, he survived for five thousand years solely through his own will, until I released him and made him my subordinate. In exchange, he resurrected you.

Kambak did indeed enjoy a period of peace and freedom, your deeds are celebrated in Kambak, and a statue in your honor has been erected.

But Kambak was persecuted and never truly stood up.

The wizard created a hero for Kambak, but also sealed him away with his own hands.

Kino paused at this point.

"Father..."

Hulu turned to look at his father in astonishment, his eyes filled with disbelief.

He naively believed that his father's experience was no different from his own, except that the blink of an eye had traversed five thousand years.

But now, Kino's words struck him like a heavy hammer, telling him that his father had endured five thousand years alone in that dark and sunless seal.

What a heavy and long time that was! Hulu simply couldn't imagine how his father must have had such a strong will to endure that endless loneliness and despair.

"Adam..."

Aya's voice trembled slightly, her eyes filled with tenderness.

She held Black Adam tightly in her arms, as if trying to dispel the gloom and pain of the past five thousand years with her embrace.

"As long as I can see you all again, nothing from the past matters."

Black Adam gently raised his hand and tenderly wiped away the tears from his wife's eyes. His resolute face was now filled with the joy and satisfaction of their reunion.

Although he was tightly bound by pain and torment during the initial stages of those sealed years.

But time eventually wore down those sharp edges, teaching him to silently endure the endless waiting and to get used to the dark and lonely days.

Pamela and Venom also looked at Black Adam in surprise.

What incredible willpower!

"Why..."

Hulu sought answers, and his once pure Mind Stone was now tinged with anger and sorrow.

Kino's lips curled into a smile.

This was exactly what he wanted; the Holy Spirit, who believed in the divine, turned to the Demon King for answers.

"There's no why. If I had to say a reason, Black Adam wasn't a good tool."

Their original plan was to kill your father and reclaim his divine power, but they couldn't defeat him, so they had to seal him away..." p1

Are all gods like this?

Would you give Shazam Power to a dog on the street?

"..."

Hulu remained silent.

"Enough, stop spreading rumors and misleading the public."

A sharp shout interrupted Kino's words.

Kino frowned and turned to look, not expecting the little madman to lose so quickly.

Harley was bound like a caterpillar by the Lasso of Truth, being led by Diana. Despite having already lost, she wore a smug expression.

Then look at Diana, her beautiful hair burned into a buzz cut, and her face charred black.

Hellfire with magical damage is no fun to behold.

"... Hahaha, Diana, how did you turn into an African?"

Kino's serious expression vanished in a second, and he burst into laughter, clutching his stomach.

Pamela covered her mouth and chuckled, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

Venom gives Harley a thumbs up.

"Harley, even though you lost, you actually won."

"That's... that bitch... ugh!"

Harley's mouth was bound by ropes, so she couldn't speak and could only whimper, her eyes glaring defiantly at Diana.

Diana's face was dark, her beautiful eyes filled with anger as she glared fiercely at Kino, who was still laughing.

"How long are you going to keep laughing!"

"Wait a minute, my stomach hurts a little!"

Kino was laughing so hard he was clutching his stomach, tears welling up in his eyes.

"... I'll make you laugh!"

Diana could no longer restrain herself. She moved swiftly, rushing towards Kino like an arrow released from a bow. To catch the thief, she had to catch the leader first; she intended to teach this ungrateful fellow a lesson.

Just then, Black Adam flashed into Diana's path, blocking her way, and lightning crackled in his hand.

"Black Adam, get out of the way."

Kino has no plans to play anymore.

Upon hearing this, Black Adam did not hesitate at all and returned to Kino's back.

A golden lightning flashed in Kino's eyes.

"Bruce, didn't I tell you about my information?"

"What?"

Diana hadn't reacted yet.

Diana only saw a blur before Kino's eyes, Kino instantly seized control of the Lasso of Truth and bound Diana tightly.

Feeling a wave of weakness wash over her, Diana collapsed to the ground.

Lasso of Truth: This is her signature weapon, but if used by the enemy to control her, it will leave her weakened.

"So fast!"

Diana's pupils contracted; she felt as if a phantom had flashed before her eyes, and she couldn't see his movements clearly at all.

And what he just said was that Bruce knew his information but didn't tell her.

That bastard.

Black Adam stared at the leader in shock; what had seemed like a fierce battle earlier was nothing more than child's play to the leader.

He then realized that the leader's strength was unfathomable, and his awe of Kino grew even stronger.

"Hahaha, bitch, now it's your turn."

Harley stepped on Diana's buttocks, a smug smile on her face.

"A defeated opponent," Diana said through gritted teeth.

"Bitch, you've lost now, Little Kiki. Want me to train a nbq?" (Intentionally misspelled)

Harley raised an eyebrow, a mischievous grin on her face.

"How dare you!" Diana exclaimed in surprise, glaring angrily.

"Come on, I'm not interested in Africans. You take her with you, we should go, we have important business to attend to."

Kino, carrying Pamela and Venom, took flight and headed towards Kambak.

Black Adam followed behind, carrying Aya and Hulu.

"I'll let you off this time, but I'll discipline you properly after I've cleaned you up."

Harley picked up Diana and flew into the air, muttering to herself.

Diana quietly watched Kino's retreating figure. He had become this strong in just a few months.

p1 (Shazam! says Black Adam released the Seven Deadly Sins, but that's not in the movie Black Adam. And it's true that Black Adam saved the world once, so I'll just pretend that's not true.)

It's definitely not because I like Dwayne Johnson. The idea that gods grant power isn't just a random thing. Shazam 2 mentions that in ancient times, humans were merely toys of the gods.

The three sisters were like a test for Billy, helping him grow, and even after it was over, one of them remained to keep an eye on him.
