Shazo: I did it!

After seeing the television program yesterday, Clark returned to the small town and went back to his foster mother's side, using the lame excuse of taking a vacation to watch television with her.

After his happy foster mother fell asleep from exhaustion, Clark Kent sat in the open space in front of the cabin all night.

He gazed at the dazzling starry sky, feeling an unprecedented pressure.

The pressure is immense!

No, the pressure is as immense as a planet.

Clark himself is Kryptonian. If a wild Kryptonian like himself is already virtually invincible on Earth, then just how powerful would a technologically advanced Krypton soldier be?

It's simply unimaginable.

Looking at the stars in the sky and listening to his adoptive mother's unsteady breathing in the room, Clark was filled with inner turmoil.

He couldn't bear to leave his mother behind, but he also couldn't let go of his love for the Earth.

He made his decision at the moment the sun rose.

Clark knew that from the moment he made the decision, he would inevitably face the danger of having his identity exposed, and might never be able to live as an Earthling again.

His life will be a mess, and all his dreams will be gone forever.

But he still made the decision, because only by sacrificing himself could he resolve the threat posed by the nearly invincible Kryptonian.

In Clark's view, sacrificing himself for the peace of the Earth was worthwhile.

Because he identifies himself as an Earthling, as Clark Kent, not as Carl El, an alien from the Chlorine Star.

Moreover, Clark's adoptive father taught him with his life to become Saint, willing to dedicate everything to Justice and peace!

Now is the perfect time!

Just as they were watching the sunrise, a wild yet chilling laugh suddenly rang out in the Fantastic Forest of Gotham City, startling Harley Quinn and Poison Ivy so much that they quickly got up to investigate.

They saw Shazo hovering in mid-air, enveloped in blazing orange Ki aura, laughing maniacally.

Shazo shouted frantically, "Grandpa, I did it! I did it!"

First of all, it should be clarified that he did not become Super Saiyan; it was just that the ki within him was too powerful and difficult to control, resulting in a natural dissipation of energy.

But Shazo really did become stronger, a completely transformed and powerful being.

--

As the saying goes, there is no progress without pressure. Shazo, who suddenly gained tremendous power, was actually using his power passively all along.

He frequently uses [Electromagnetic Control] because, through the passing down of skills by several Shazo, [Electromagnetic Control] has become a shared [Talent Divine Ability] among Shazo.

He endured severe Chakra depletion to use [Wood Release] because, in the face of modern firepower, the Forest, Tree People, and Wood Golem he could create at will could effectively disperse the firepower and cover his safety.

However, in any case, Shazo only passively used skills, mechanically copying the experiences shared by other Shazo.

Even when he copied it verbatim, he demonstrated enough strength to be invincible.

Aside from Superman, no one else was on Shazo's mind. Superman was a gentleman who could be easily bullied, and therefore posed no threat. So Xia Zuo naturally enjoyed himself leisurely, without any motivation to carefully study his own power.

It wasn't until he discovered the signs of the Kryptonian' impending arrival that Shazo felt unprecedented pressure. He tried to enter the Dream Dimension to gain greater power while simultaneously familiarizing himself with the shared power he had acquired and attempting to unify the complex forces.

Today, he did it.

Shazo combined all his power into ki, and unlocked the [Electromagnetic Control] and [Wood Release] techniques powered by ki.

method.

Because he had mastered his power, Shazo felt stronger than ever before and laughed triumphantly.

To Harley Quinn, his maniacal laughter was the epitome of the Joker, the very essence of her own soul's pursuit.

In Pamela's perception, his aura signified that he had crossed the boundary between humans and gods, and had formally taken control of the divine authority over plants.

As he laughed, Shazo's laughter abruptly stopped, because he had thought of a question.

That's a terrifying question: Could the naive Clark reveal everything and get himself into enormous trouble?

[It's highly likely that Clark lived at the bottom of society, interacting only with ordinary people, lacking sufficient vigilance and understanding of the wickedness of human nature.]

No, I have to go and remind him!

With that thought in mind, Shazo no longer hesitated, and suddenly soared into the sky, transforming into a shooting star and flying towards the Metropolis.

However, he couldn't find anyone in the Metropolis. In desperation, Shazo flew high into the sky and shouted loudly above the clouds, "Clark! Clark Kent!"

"Where are you?"

"No matter where you are, come see me right now, or you'll regret it for the rest of your life!"

At an altitude of 11,000 meters, the air was so thin that sound could not travel far, but just a few minutes later, Shazo sensed an incredibly fast flying object entering his [Mantra] range.

It's Superman, and Superman wearing the standard red and blue suit.

In just 6 seconds, Superman passed through Shazo's [Mantra] perception radius and arrived in front of him, stopping instantly as if he hadn't slowed down at all.

Superman looked at Shazo and said calmly, "Mr. Shazo, I didn't expect you could fly too."

Shazo Zuo laughed heartily, "I didn't expect you to fly so fast, and to be able to return to zero speed without slowing down. Is this Vector Manipulation?"

Superman shook his head and said, "No, I also slow down, it's just that the slowdown is so fast that it's hard to see."

"Mr. Shazo, what can I do for you?"

Shazo said, "I know you're in a hurry to reveal your identity to the Department of Defense, so I won't take up too much of your time."

With just one sentence, he Mind Stone shocked Superman, so much so that his eyes widened involuntarily.

Ignoring Superman's reaction, Shazo continued, "First, you absolutely cannot reveal your human name."

"Absolutely no information whatsoever, including address, occupation, family, or any other details."

"You are capable of withstanding almost any harm and threat, but your friends, your neighbors, and especially your adoptive mother, cannot, understand?"

Superman nodded. "Thank you, I've thought it through, I won't tell anyone."

Shazo shook his head and said, "No, you haven't realized how serious what I'm saying is. Do you think that if you don't tell, others won't be able to find out?"

"Details! Details are extremely important!"

"Even if you don't reveal your name, address, or family members' names, simply stating any detail about your human life could expose your mother to ambitious individuals."

Superman was incredulous. "It's that serious?"

Shazo threatened him, "Otherwise, how do you think I knew you were Clark?"

Superman suddenly felt a pang of guilt. He was genuinely wondering how Shazo knew his human name, something he had never mentioned to Shazo before.

Shazo now knows his name and where he works; finding his mother is only a matter of time.

So Superman humbly and earnestly asked, "Mr. Shazo, what should I do?"

Shazo replied, "East University: 'A thousand words are not as good as silence.'"

Silence is the best form of secrecy!

"Apart from questions directly related to Kryptonian, you must not say anything, speak to anyone, or chat with anyone."

"Just keep smiling."

Superman thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "I understand. I won't say anything that has no direct connection to Kryptonian."

Shazo Zuo nodded and said, "The second thing is Yuanshi the arrival of the Kryptonian will bring Krypton, a substance that can kill Kryptonian. It appears as green crystals that can glow."

"This is the only substance in the Universe that can weaken you to a pulp. Once you are hit in the body by Kryptonite, even Dagger can kill you."

"Therefore, after this is over, you need to keep an eye on the presence of Kryptonite and ensure that it doesn't leak out and eventually become a tool that threatens you."

Superman looked on incredulously, but based on the trust Shazo had built up, he cautiously chose to believe him. "I will verify it carefully."

"If it's true, I will collect Kryptonite diligently and keep it safe."

Shazo nodded and said, "One last thing, be careful of Batman, be careful of Batman, be extremely careful of Batman!"

"I only have these three things to say."

"When the Kryptonian arrive, I will also step onto the battlefield."

Don't worry, I won't leave you to face everything alone.

Hahaha!

Shazo flew away laughing wildly, leaving a bewildered Superman staring blankly as he disappeared into the horizon.

After a long while, Superman was infected by Shazo's unrestrained joy and couldn't help but laugh out loud, and most of the depression and gloom in his heart dissipated.

No matter how difficult the future may be, as long as there are people by your side to fight alongside you, you will never feel hopeless.

Superman, in high spirits, flew to Washington with a smile on his face.

A few minutes later, Superman, dressed in a red and blue suit, appeared in front of the Department of Defense and introduced himself to the soldiers and officers, explaining that he was Carl -El, the Kryptonian they were looking for.

Flying became an unparalleled persuasive force, convincing officers to accept the Superman identity.

Superman then voluntarily put on handcuffs and allowed the soldiers to detain him at the military base, in order to avoid any potential conflict by showing the utmost obedience.

Just as Shazo warned, the military became greedy and tried to control Superman, turning him into a secret weapon for the military.

One bald, retired military officer even promised to replace Superman with other death row inmates.

Hearing the old man's incessant ramblings, Superman quickly became unable to tolerate his ignorance and arrogance, so he stood up and easily broke and tore apart the Titanium Alloy handcuffs.

Superman, seeing through the one-way glass, said to the ignorant old man, "I am Kryptonian. I possess [Super Vision] that allows me to see everything, [super hearing] that allows me to hear the conversations of everyone on half the planet, [super strength] that allows me to move trains, and [super defense] that can withstand armor-piercing bullets."

"I can fly, I can project Heat Vision, I can exhale freezing cold air, and I can survive in lava, polar regions, the deep sea, and outer space."

How could you possibly find a death row inmate to replace me?

"After you angered the Kryptonian, how do you plan to fend off Kryptonian retaliation?"

"You have to understand, I grew up on Earth, I didn't receive any Krypton education, and I don't have any advanced technology. There must be people among those Kryptonian who are stronger than me."

Superman picked up the Titanium Alloy fragments from the ground, casually shaped them into various forms, and sat back down in his original spot.

"Don't waste any more time, report to your superiors immediately."

Seeing the power Superman displayed, the group of generals finally realized just how powerful the Kryptonian were. They no longer dared to detain Superman and obediently reported the situation to the Grand Leader for a decision.

Soon, Superman was sent to the agreed-upon Nevada desert, where he was taken away by Kryptonian soldiers aboard a spaceplane and placed into a spaceship in orbit.

But after Shazo's reminder, Superman did not reveal Lois's information, and thus did not bring his girlfriend, this huge burden, along, which made him feel incredibly at ease and relaxed.

On the Airship in outer space, General Zod finally met Superman, and the hope for the continuation of his race was finally within his grasp. He was overjoyed.

General Zod was designed as a military talent from birth and was once the military leader of Krypton.

He and Superman's father, Jor-El, are colleagues and superiors/subordinates, and both believe that Krypton is dying and that Krypton must change.

But their approaches were completely different.

Faced with the inaction of the Parliament, General Zod resolutely launched a coup as the military leader, but failed and was captured. He and his loyal subordinates were exiled to the Phantom Zone.

Jor-El, however, chose to have a son with his wife naturally, steal the Codex that was crucial to the continuation of Krypton civilization, integrate it into the son's body, and send him to Earth.

Ultimately, Krypton was completely destroyed due to the Krypton Parliament's reckless actions.

General Zod seized the opportunity to escape the Phantom Zone, and upon seeing the remnants of Krypton reduced to Universe dust, vowed to rebuild Krypton and continue its civilization.

Afterwards, General Zod traveled across much of the Universe, finding a wealth of resources and technological equipment on former Krypton colonies, including World Engine for terraforming Star Ring.

General Zod said to Superman, "Kal-El, the key to rebuilding Krypton lies hidden within your body— the Codex containing the genes of billions of Kryptonian."

"As long as you cooperate with me, I can continuously cultivate Kryptonian and completely revive our Krypton race and civilization."

"Join us, help us, okay?"

Superman had no objection and nodded.

Firstly, he is a kind person with overflowing compassion, and is always willing to help others.

Secondly, although he identifies himself as an Earthling, he also acknowledges that he is Kryptonian, and he cannot shirk the responsibility of revitalizing his race.

But what Zod said next was completely unacceptable to him, and filled him with rage.

Overjoyed, Zod clenched his fists. "Excellent! All the conditions for revival have been met! Let's deploy the World Engine right now and begin transforming Earth into Krypton!"

Superman jerked his head up, incredulously demanding of General Zod, "What did you say?"

"Transforming the Earth?"

Why should we modify the Earth?
