"But how could I trust that you weren't trying to gather all three Mother Boxes, open a passage, and let Darkseid and his army invade this universe?"
Although Diana knew the odds of that suspicion being true were extremely low—if he were a bad person, he would not have helped Superman deal with Zod and those Kryptonians.
Still, she could not be too naive about such matters. The three Mother Boxes had been divided into three parts and entrusted to three races for safekeeping back then; there had to be a reason for it.
Would bringing them together again really be a good thing?
Jerry had anticipated Diana's concerns long ago and merely smiled.
"Actually, you don't need to worry about that. If I really wanted to do it, I wouldn't have had to wait until now. I could get my hands on all three Mother Boxes whenever I wanted. The only reason I asked you to take me to Paradise Island to retrieve the Mother Box was out of courtesy and my personal principles."
Diana's face clearly showed her disbelief.
She knew Jerry was powerful, but Paradise Island had been created with Zeus's divine power. Unless one knew its exact location, it was impossible to find, even with the most advanced technology available today.
"How do you prove it?"
"Hmm, then I'll take you back there."
Jerry placed a hand on Diana's shoulder, mentally locking onto the location where he sensed power of the same origin as the Mother Box before, preparing to use Apparition.
Jerry's words instantly made Diana understand what he meant.
Jerry possessed the ability to teleport, something that had been reported in the news before. She just had not expected that he could take her with him to Paradise Island.
"What's wrong?"
Just as Diana
