"You've finally arrived. If you hadn't come, it would have killed me."
The injured Superman spoke to Yi Shuihan with some resentment. His aura had weakened considerably since the beginning, and his entire appearance had become quite wretched.
Yi Shuihan glanced at Superman with amusement, but didn't take Superman's complaints to heart. He could tell that the other man meant no harm; on the contrary, he would never have said such a thing if he didn't think they had a good relationship.
"Okay, don't say your brother doesn't take care of you. Go and rest for a bit, and let me play with it by myself."
"Then be careful, it will keep getting stronger, don't give it any time."
Knowing Yi Shuihan's strength, and considering that he did need time to recover, Superman agreed to Yi Shuihan's decision.
Superman had previously dealt a severe blow to Doomsday. Although Doomsday was not physically injured, it was still in pain. Upon seeing Superman leave, Doomsday was naturally unhappy and completely ignored Yi Shuihan, a formidable enemy, relentlessly pursuing Superman.
"boom"
Yi Shuihan blocked Doomsday's path. Doomsday charged forward, trying to knock him over, but Yi Shuihan threw a punch, sending Doomsday flying back like a cannonball.
The ground was smashed into a huge crater, a huge dent appeared on Doomsday's body, and flames spewed from its mouth, leaving behind a series of small craters.
This punch was more effective against Doomsday than any of Superman's previous attacks, successfully drawing the hatred to Doomsday.
For the first time, Doomsday's aura dropped, something that had never happened during its battle with Superman. This was because Superman's damage to Doomsday was always less than its recovery speed, so it would recover almost immediately after being injured and even get used to the attacks, causing its aura to rise.
Facing Yi Shuihan was completely different; its power was used to recover from injuries, so its adaptability was relatively ineffective for the time being, and its aura actually dropped.
It's unrealistic to expect Doomsday to stop getting stronger; its aura only dropped for a few breaths before quickly rebounding and becoming stronger again.
Chapter 672, Hero Organization
"I'm not here to give you experience points!"
He murmured something, then leaned forward, unleashing a continuous barrage of attacks from his hands.
The relentless attacks pounded on Doomsday, causing it to roar in agony.
Doomsday's body was reduced in width by half by Yi Shuihan's blows, and it's fortunate that it was able to survive under such circumstances.
"As expected of one of the two most powerful biological weapons in the DC universe, its potential is limitless!"
The more difficult the situation, the more unleashed Doomsday's boundless potential. Under Yi Shuihan's attacks, its injuries continued to worsen, and it couldn't heal in time. Its aura also continued to decline, but its recovery ability was increasing at a speed that Yi Shuihan could perceive.
If this continues, Doomsday's regenerative abilities might surpass the speed at which Yi Shuihan could damage it before it dies, giving it a chance to turn the tables.
This is naturally based on the premise that Yi Shuihan's attack power can no longer be increased. Obviously, Yi Shuihan is not using his full strength at the moment.
"I want to see where your limits are."
Sensing the change in Doomsday, Yi Shuihan intensified his offensive, and Doomsday's slight chance to turn the tide vanished once again.
"Rumble"
Despite trying to control the force and prevent it from leaking out, the battlefield was still turned into a hellish scene, making it impossible to tell that this was originally a metropolis.
The battlefield stretched for dozens of miles, and this battle nearly destroyed a third of the metropolis. Many people in the metropolis witnessed Yi Shuihan's heroic figure as he crushed the Doomsday.
Many of the bolder ones even took out their phones and frantically took photos and videos, then uploaded them online, shocking the whole world.
"Mr. President, shall we still launch a nuclear missile?"
"What the hell are you firing?! Can't you see that monster is getting utterly thrashed?"
Similar conversations have been heard in many places.
"My God, even Superman couldn't beat this monster, yet he's so weak in his hands. Who is he? How can he be so powerful?"
"Was this monster exhausted when it fought Superman, which is why it's so weak now?"
"Superman is a god among men, so what is he? A god-king? Or God himself?"
While Yi Shuihan was utterly defeating Doomsday, a female warrior, or rather a goddess of war, clad in ancient armor, carrying a round shield and a sharp sword, quietly arrived in Metropolis.
This female warrior is none other than the demigod Diana, a Wonder Woman from the Amazonian paradise island who hopes to bring love and peace to humankind.
Yi Shuihan had also searched for her, but he never found any trace of her. After all, unlike Superman, she had been in the human world for a long time and had long since integrated into this world. She didn't have a fixed place, so it was difficult to find her.
Diana stood on the rooftop of a building, silently watching the battle. She looked at Yi Shuihan with curiosity in her eyes. Having been in the human world for so long, this was the first time she had seen such a powerful person. She believed she could easily defeat Superman once she broke the seal, but she was not confident in defeating Yi Shuihan.
"Is that all? If you don't have any other skills, then I'll have no choice but to send you to hell."
Yi Shuihan's voice was filled with disappointment, and he seemed to disdain Doomsday.
Doomsday, a biological weapon aware of destruction, was still enraged and roared repeatedly, but to no avail. Faced with Yi Shuihan's far superior strength, it seemed that it could only obediently wait for its death.
With one kick, Doomsday was sent flying. Then Yi Shuihan continued to kick, one kick after another, and Doomsday's height kept rising until it finally left Earth.
This was intentional on Yi Shuihan's part, because if he really killed Doomsday on Earth, he couldn't guarantee that Metropolis would still exist.
"Huh, it really does have Kryptonian genes; its recovery ability has become so much stronger."
Upon arriving in space, due to its proximity to the sun, Doomsday's power underwent a comprehensive enhancement, and it even showed signs of resurgence.
"You think you can turn the tide like this? Body of the Sun, absorb it!"
At that moment, Doomsday's surroundings suddenly went completely dark, and its regenerative power returned to the speed it had on Earth.
The power of the Sun's body is undeniable; it can absorb all the light in a region, making it incredibly domineering and completely severing one of the sources of power for the Doomsday.
"I'll use this trick to send you on your way."
Energy attacks are useless against Doomsday, so only physical attacks can be used.
"Plasma Lightning Speed Fist"
The fists thrown in that instant numbered in the billions; the entire Earth could see a burst of golden light in the sky, giving the feeling of lights suddenly being turned on at night, even though it was broad daylight.
As expected, Doomsday failed miserably, its entire body exploding into a massive firework that could be seen from afar by people on Earth.
"Dead? As expected of Yi!"
Superman lamented that he had originally planned to help, but by the time he took a break, the matter was already over.
Batman, who only played a minor role throughout, had a serious expression, and even with the bat mask on, you could tell that he was experiencing a complex mix of emotions.
As a superhero, being forced to watch helplessly as the enemy wreaked havoc twice in a row was a huge blow to him, even making him feel lost in life.
"It's so good to have friends! If it weren't for Yi Shuihan at this time, I really don't know how things would have turned out!"
Superman said this unintentionally, but when Batman heard it, he was shocked.
An idea gradually took shape in Batman's mind: to form a hero alliance to stop the spread of the virus. Since he couldn't do it alone, he would gather the strength of others. Although he wasn't the strongest, he was quite confident in his intellect and believed he could lead a hero organization.
"Superman, what do you think about it if Earth had its own organization of heroes?"
“Great! In that case, I’ll probably join! Sometimes it’s really too much to handle on my own, and I can ask for help when I encounter an opponent I can’t beat.”
Superman answered without hesitation.
Chapter 673, Paradise Island
"League of Legends? Can I join?"
Batman and Superman's expressions changed simultaneously. They hadn't noticed anyone else coming. If someone could approach them so silently, they must either have exceptional stealth skills or be far stronger than them. Either way, it was enough to warrant serious attention.
Wonder Woman Diana's outfit amazed Batman and Superman. After seeing so many modern business suits and beautiful dresses, Diana's warrior outfit was a refreshing change.
For Batman and Superman, delicate women deserve to be cherished, but a woman like Diana, who is both powerful and beautiful, deserves the government's attention. In an environment where there are generally more men than women in the superhero world, Diana is even more approachable.
Of course, all of this is based on the premise that Diana is a hero, which is something that Batman and Superman cannot yet confirm.
"Are you planning to join a medieval war? Being a hero isn't something you can just do easily." Diana startled Batman, so he didn't speak very politely.
Our Mr. Nice Guy Superman was much more magnanimous. Although he was also frightened, he still looked at Diana with gentle eyes.
“I don’t think so. My sword is much more useful than an airplane for dealing with that big guy.” Diana casually swung her sword, and then a sword mark several meters long appeared on the ground. Batman and the others clearly saw that the sword did not touch the ground.
Without a doubt, with this skill alone, Diana has already stepped into a superhuman realm. Even with a gun, the power would probably not be that great. And this is just her swinging it casually. If they were to actually fight, how strong would she be?
"Why are non-human beings popping up everywhere lately? First, it was Superman, then Yi Shuihan, then the monster, and now a medieval female warrior. The world is changing too fast."
Batman felt a pang of bitterness and genuinely felt exhausted.
"Young man, you are still so young. Don't have any despondent thoughts. The most important thing for a hero is not strength, but the heart of a hero. If you lose your way, think about why you wanted to become a hero in the first place."
A dose of inspirational wisdom instantly brought Batman to his senses.
Indeed, whether a person is a hero has little to do with their strength. No matter how strong one is, if one does not have the heart to help others, one cannot be called a hero.
Batman would never admit that he was moved at this moment. Although he would have realized it eventually even if Diana hadn't said it, Diana's words saved him some time in confirming his feelings.
"Young man? Are you that old? I'm old enough to be the father of a young girl like you."
Without making a sound, Batman, a veteran hero, has revealed his youth; he is now middle-aged and approaching old age.
I looked like this even before you were born, so who do you think is older?
Diana said calmly, a hint of vicissitude flashing in her eyes. The outside world can indeed make people grow up easily. During her time on Paradise Island, she saw more than she had seen in the years outside. These decades in the United States can be said to have completely transformed her. She is no longer the innocent girl from Paradise Island.
Batman could tell that the woman in front of him was not lying. With his years of experience, he could tell whether someone was lying from their expression and certain details. So far, apart from the Joker, he had not made any mistakes.
So much has happened in the past year, which has toughened Batman's heart and made him much more resilient than before. After all, even aliens exist, so the emergence of immortality is nothing new.
So you can just calmly accept it? Accept it my foot!
This is immortality, a miraculous power that humanity has been pursuing ever since the dawn of civilization.
For a long time, Batman remained silent, staring blankly at Diana, his mind a complete blank.
Superman, who was listening to Diana's words from the side, was secretly amazed. He had thought that Diana was at most about the same age as him, or even a little younger. Who knew that she was old enough to be his grandmother.
While they were talking, Yi Shuihan finally flew back. Actually, he originally wanted to leave directly, but then he remembered that his potion seemed to be in Metropolis, so he decided to ask Batman if there had been any problems.
Upon returning, the first thing Yi Shuihan saw was Diana. With such a familiar outfit, he naturally wouldn't mistake her and instantly understood her identity. The appearance of such a beautiful woman was bound to put him in a good mood. Although the surrounding scenery had been completely destroyed by the battle, being in such an environment with a beautiful woman had a unique charm.
"Is this newly appeared warrior from Amazon Paradise Island?"
Previously, neither Superman nor Batman recognized Diana's identity, but now that Yi Shuihan has arrived, he has revealed her background, which naturally surprises her. Her feelings towards Yi Shuihan are different from those towards Superman and the others.
"Paradise Island is my hometown."
They readily admitted it, because there was nothing to hide.
"Paradise Island is a wonderful place. It is said to be full of peace, where people live and work in peace and contentment, like a paradise on earth. I have long wanted to see it, but unfortunately I have no guide."
He really wanted to see what kind of magic this island named after paradise possessed. The fact that the island was full of women was somewhat similar to Amazon Lily in the One Piece world, but the fact that everyone there was eternally young, intelligent, and possessed immense divine power seemed too exaggerated, and he didn't know if it was true.
"When I go home to visit my family, I can take you with me. I guarantee you'll have a real eye-opener."
Diana smiled and said that Yi Shuihan's exaggeration made her feel extremely comfortable.
"How come he always knows everything?"
Batman and Superman had the same thought at the same time, because when they met Yi Shuihan, they had a feeling that Yi Shuihan knew them inside and out. They thought it was an illusion, but now that they found a familiar scene, they naturally had other ideas.
Chapter 674, Showing Off is the Original Sin
"I am an ordinary cultivator from the East. My name is Yi Shuihan. My surname is Yi and my given name is Shuihan. Of course, because of my profession, you can call me Daoist Yi."
“I am an Amazon from Paradise Island, just call me Diana.”
After exchanging names, they became much closer to each other.
"Bruce, is it really necessary for you to keep wearing a mask? Can't you see that you're the only one here wearing a mask and hiding your face? You're ruining the scenery. Take it off right now."
Yi Shuihan said to Batman without any politeness.
Suddenly being pointed at with a gun, Batman was caught off guard. Yi Shuihan's words were indeed reasonable. There was no one else present. The reason he wore a mask was to hide his identity from the general public. His strength was not like Superman's, which allowed him to crush ordinary people. Many modern weapons could deal with him. If his identity were exposed, there would definitely be a lot of trouble.
After thinking it over, Batman still took off his mask. Rather than trusting the character of the people present, it was because Yi Shuihan already knew his identity. If Yi Shuihan wanted to, he could tell him at any time. He took the initiative so that there would be no awkwardness.
When the true identity was revealed, only Superman remained calm, as it was his first time learning Batman's true identity. Yi Shuihan and Diana, on the other hand, seemed quite composed.
Yi Shuihan already knew about this, so Bruce expected this reaction, but Diana puzzled him.
Does that mean she already knew my identity all along?
Bruce didn't have a chance to ask this question before Yi Shuihan inquired about the potion.
"My pharmaceutical company shouldn't be lying dormant somewhere on this battlefield, right?"
"When did it become your pharmaceutical company?"
"A company that serves only me, isn't that my pharmaceutical company?"
"A boss like you who only provides one formula and nothing else? This is the first time I've realized how shameless you are."
Bruce looked at Yi Shuihan with annoyance, his tone becoming less friendly: "Don't worry, that place isn't here."
"That's good, now I can't stop!"
