Wonder Woman, Very Bouncy

"You want the Mother Box?" Diana's brows furrowed instantly, and the Lasso of Truth gleamed faintly with Golden Light at her waist. "What for?"

"Resurrecting Superman." Bruce Yu made no attempt to hide his intentions.

"Are you crazy? The Mother Box isn't a wish-granting machine! Every time it's activated, it's accompanied by destruction!"

Bruce Yu calmly stated, "Luthor has already analyzed Krypton technology; all we need to do is activate it with the energy of the Mother Box."

"You don't understand at all!" Diana suddenly erupted, her War God Armor manifesting in her rage. "The last civilization that tried to control the Mother Box is now called the Apokolips Graveyard!" She pressed the tip of her sword against Bruce Yu's throat. "You're gambling with Earth!"

Thunder roared outside the window, and Bruce Yu's Mangekyō Sharingan in the lightning. "Do you have a better plan? To strangle Darkseid with your lasso?" He grabbed the blade. "Without Superman, you Amazon women are going to carry him on your heads?"

Diana's pupils trembled slightly, and she suddenly sheathed her sword and stepped back. "The Amazons will not participate in such a crazy plan."

She turned and walked towards the floor-to-ceiling window, her eyes filled with pity as she looked back. "Don't become the next Ares."

"Smack!"

Bruce Yu's palm slammed firmly onto Diana's shapely buttocks, the crisp sound echoing in the room.

Wonder Woman froze on the spot, her pupils suddenly contracting as if struck by lightning.

She slowly turned her head, her expression quickly shifting from shock to rage!

"Are you looking for death!?"

The next second, her arm guards shone with Golden Light, and the War God Armor instantly covered her entire body!

She suddenly spun around, her right fist carrying a storm of divine power, and slammed straight at Bruce Yu's face!

"Bang!"

Bruce Yu was prepared. In an instant, a rapidly spinning Rasengan condensed in his palm, and the blue-white chakra storm collided violently with Diana's arm guard!

"Boom!"

The Havok from the collision of the two energies shattered the floor-to-ceiling windows of the room, and shards of glass rained down like a storm!

Diana was forced back two steps by the recoil, while Bruce Yu used the momentum to flip backward and land steadily on the back of the sofa, a smug grin still on his lips.

"Good reaction, Amazon Princess." He shook his numb wrist. "But her temper is more explosive than I expected."

"You will pay for your blasphemy!" Diana was completely enraged, and the Lasso of Truth lashed out like a golden lightning bolt, aiming straight for Bruce Yu's neck!

Bruce Yu dodged in a Body Flicker Technique, and the spot where he had been standing was scorched by the lasso.

He swiftly Hand Seal, Shadow Clone Jutsu!

Three clones leaped out simultaneously, pouncing on Diana from different angles!

Diana sneered, her sword and shield clashing, instantly annihilating two clones. But the third clone suddenly changed its attack, and Rasengan lit up in her palm once more!

"Immortal Technique: Big Ball Rasengan!"

A giant Rasengan, nearly two meters in diameter, crashed down. Diana raised her shield to take the hit, and the floor beneath her feet cracked inch by inch!

She gritted her teeth and withstood the pressure. The shield spewed out blinding sparks, and she was pushed backward, her heels carving two scorch marks on the carpet.

"Drink!" She suddenly exerted her strength, unleashing her divine power, and actually shattered the Big Ball Rasengan!

Bruce Yu seized the opportunity to launch a surprise attack and slapped Diana on the shoulder again!

Wonder Woman is really angry now!

With a flick of her wrist, the Lasso of Truth transformed into golden lightning, wrapping around Bruce Yu's neck, its intense Golden Light illuminating his miniature face.

"Speak!" Wonder Woman demanded coldly, her War God Armor gleaming in the dim room. "Who sent you? Are you Darkseid's henchman?"

Bound by the Binding Vow, Bruce Yu was unable to lie and could only answer truthfully, "No one sent me here. I just want to protect the Earth."

Diana frowned slightly and pressed on, "What exactly is your ultimate goal?"

"Protect the Earth." His voice was calm and firm, without the slightest wavering.

This answer stunned Diana.

She had expected to uncover some conspiracy, but to her surprise, the other party's purpose was so pure.

The Lasso of Truth doesn't lie, but a guy of unknown origin suddenly jumps out and says he wants to protect the Earth? That's absurd. The key is that his behavior and style make it really hard to figure out what he wants to do.

In the instant she hesitated, Bruce Yu, who was Binding Vow by the noose, suddenly curled up a strange smile.

With a "bang," his neck turned into a wooden stake, which then crumbled into wood chips in the Golden Light and fluttered down.

Diana stared at the empty Lasso of Truth in her hand. She turned around abruptly, but the only sound in the room was the rustling of the curtains being blown by the wind.

Diana stood on the edge of the cliff on Themyscira, the sea breeze billowing her cloak.

The Mother Box slumbers deep within the Lookout; it is a sacred relic guarded by the Amazons for generations.

She shouldn't have come back.

According to Amazon law, no warrior who leaves Themyscira may return to his homeland.

But now, Darkseid's shadow looms over Earth, Superman is dead, the Justice League disbanded before it was even formed, and if the Mother Box falls into Apokolips ' hands, Earth, like those 90,000 other planets, will eventually become a wasteland. The entire universe will become a purgatory.

"My mother will not forgive me," she murmured, but her eyes grew even more determined. "But she should be able to understand me."

Before Wonder Woman, the warriors of Themyscira were already on high alert.

Queen Hippolyta stood before the Lookout, gazing at her daughter with a complex expression.

"Diana, you have violated the ancestral precepts." The Queen's voice was cold and authoritative.

"I know." Diana knelt on one knee, her right hand on her chest, "But the Mother Box must be protected, and I want to do my part."

Hippolyta silent, feeling utterly humiliated.

Amazon Warriors raised their spears high, their battle cries echoing through the sky!

"Divine Punishment!"

"Divine Punishment!"

Those who violate the ancestral precepts of Themyscira will be punished!

But at that very moment...

"Whoosh!"

The space around Diana suddenly distorted, and a figure appeared out of thin air!

Bruce Yu, with one hand in his pocket and the other holding half a pizza, mumbled, "Oh, the High-Speed Rail has arrived?"

Diana's pupils contracted sharply, and the Lasso of Truth taut instantly!

"Bruce Yu! How could you!"

Bruce Yu wouldn't explain the Flying Thunder God technique. He slammed his hand on the ground, and just as the Lasso of Truth was about to ensnare him, he vanished again.

Now, Wonder Woman is in a bind.

Hippolyta glared at her daughter, her teeth clenched, and declared, "Take her to the jail!"

"Yes!"

Themyscira smells wonderful at night.

Why does it smell so good?

Because this is a group of women.

Protected by the Divine Protection Barrier, Bruce Yu used the Flying Thunder God Flying Thunder God Technique Formula in the open space during the day.

As soon as he arrived, he took a deep breath of the fragrant air.

"Interesting."

"Okay, time to get to work."
