Clark's fist slammed towards his opponent, but Golden Superman caught it with one hand, the shockwave shattering many nearby planets. "And what gives you the right to decide what the 'right' future is?"
Golden Superman didn't answer, but suddenly exerted his strength, flinging Clark towards a dying star. Clark's body pierced the star's core like a cannonball, triggering a supernova explosion. Fiery plasma erupted, but then froze at Golden Superman's thought, as if time had been paused.
“I’m not like you. Your ideals are too naive.” Golden Superman hovered in front of the supernova, his voice cold. “Some problems only have one solution.”
"The strongest Superman must be born." It's unclear how Golden Superman was brainwashed by the Supreme Alliance. He wasn't being controlled, but his thoughts had become extremely extreme.
Clark burst forth from the stellar debris, his golden light intensifying. He fell silent, attacking Golden Superman with even greater ferocity. Their battle raged from the tangible dimension into the torrent of time, then tore back from the quantum realm into the material universe—a battle Ian simply couldn't intervene in.
Golden Superman is too strong.
He achieved dimensional leap by absorbing solar energy, becoming a five-dimensional life form capable of manipulating timelines, and wielding the Green Lantern Corps' ultimate artifact, the "Final Power Ring." In other universes, Golden Superman has demonstrated multiverse-level abilities such as crushing toxic suns and reshaping DNA to create five-dimensional life.
Such Kryptonian life forms.
How can Ian, who has been in the industry for less than fifteen years, be compared to her?
He couldn't even use his own eyes to bless his father, because the range and speed of the two superheroes' battle far exceeded the speed his eyes could currently capture.
"Moreover, even if I could capture my father's speed, the boost I could provide would be negligible. He has already ignited the sun within his own heart."
Ian has always believed that his father has a superstitious nature, and the facts have proven this to be true. As Clark Kent's eldest son, the only help he can provide to his father now is to use his new ability [Whisper] to constantly tell his father, whom he has locked onto, about his mother's unhappy life after remarrying with him.
"Dad, if you lie down now, Mom can hold a matchmaking event at Lonely Fortress tomorrow—do you think that bald, Luther-like Clark from the other universe, wearing a black cloak, will propose with a kryptonite ring?"
"There really is such a parallel universe..."
Don't want to hear it.
However, Ian's whispering ability was indeed overpowered, after all, it came from Mephisto, the great villain of Marvel. Clark's fist grazed the face of the Golden Superman by half an inch.
My hands are shaking.
"Jonathan and Jordan are in for a rough time~ Big brother Jonathan and second brother Jordan will encounter a stepfather who loves to abuse his children, but you don't have to worry about me."
“I know how to use the law to protect myself, and I can use the Constitution of the United States to kill my stepfather. Of course, if this continues, my mother will definitely have to remarry again.”
"And so it goes, endlessly, and who knows, one day Mom will be forced to remarry Batman. I saw Batman glance at Mom a couple of times last time."
When it comes to stirring things up, Ian is a real pro, driving Clark Kent into a frenzy. Suddenly, Clark grabbed Golden Superman's hand, his knuckles cracking under the strain.
"Ian!!!" Clark's pupils instantly lit up with a golden light of idealism. The two had already fought in the depths of the universe. He grabbed Golden Superman by the neck and slammed him into the core of Apokolips.
"Shut up!"
This was an angry reprimand of Ian, but the one suffering was Apokolips, the "spectator planet." Apokolips is the core of Darkseid's rule and one of the most terrifying planets in the DC Universe, known as the "Heart of Darkness." This planet was built with New God technology, its surface covered with burning scorched earth, massive factories and prisons, its sky forever shrouded in a red sun, and the air filled with an atmosphere of despair.
now.
It suffered an attack that no one could have predicted.
Boom!
The entire Apokolips plate was displaced by three kilometers, and magma erupted from the cracks like a fountain, leaving a scar on the surface of Apokolips that far exceeded the damage caused by the East African Rift Valley.
at the same time.
Darkseid was sitting on his throne.
Darkseid is the ultimate symbol of "Darkness and Chaos" in DC, also known as the "Dark Lord," the ruler of Apokolips, and one of the most powerful evil gods among the New Gods.
His real name is Uxus. He was originally the second prince of Apokolips. He became the ruler of Apokolips by killing his brother, usurping the throne, and seizing the Omega Effect, an ultimate power.
Its appearance is that of a rock giant standing 8 feet 9 inches tall, with rock-like gray-black skin, a face covered with ferocious patterns, and eyes that reveal extreme indifference and cruelty.
As Superman's "arch-nemesis," Darkseid's ambition is not only to rule Apokolips, but also to conquer the entire multiverse and destroy the free will of all life through the "Anti-Life Equation."
At this very moment, Darkseid was tapping his fingers on the armrest, contemplating how to use the chaos of the multiverse to expand his territory and establish an eternal dark order.
However, suddenly, the entire palace shook violently, the walls cracked, and the ceiling collapsed.
"what happened?!"
He stood up abruptly, the power of Omega already brewing in his eyes.
"Your Majesty, Your Majesty!"
A subordinate stumbled in, shouting, "There are two Chaos—"
boom--! ! !
The palace dome shattered, and two golden beams of light crashed into the hall like meteors. Their red and blue afterimages slammed onto the conference table in front of Darkseid with a bang, the shockwave instantly blasting away all the dark elites. Darkseid hadn't even had time to see who it was when he heard two furious roars simultaneously.
"Get out of my way!" Clark's fist came crashing down.
"Get out of the way!" Golden Superman's heat vision exploded.
For some reason, their attack trajectories inexplicably changed direction and headed straight for him.
Darkseid: "...???"
BOOOOOOM——!!!
The next second, two Superman-level fists simultaneously slammed into his face. The Omega Force automatically protected itself at the last second, but was still forcefully pushed back by the impact of the two god-like forces. The crust of Apokolips cracked at that moment, lava erupted, and the entire planet wailed.
Darkseid was completely dumbfounded.
All he saw was two Supermen fighting in his territory, and in his direction. He hadn't even gone to destroy the Earth yet, and his hometown was about to be demolished.
This is the tragedy of not having purchased the property insurance offered by Ian's insurance company. Of course, even if Darkseid had purchased it, Ian would still have grounds to refuse to pay.
He's someone who's very much integrated into the ranks of capitalists.
"Rumble~ Rumble~"
A series of explosions echoed across Apokolips as two godlike figures clashed amidst the leaden clouds, each collision causing the entire planet to tremble.
"boom--!!!"
Clark punched Golden Superman into the core fortress of Apokolips.
The superfortress, supposedly capable of withstanding the Big Bang, shattered like a biscuit. Lava spewed out, but was vaporized into invisible particles before it could reach the two Kryptonians.
"you--"
Darkseid's roar came from beneath the throne. After all, he had taken two solid sneak attacks that defied all martial ethics, and the Omega effect was boiling in his angry eyes.
"This is Apokolips!"
The two Supermen didn't answer, which means they knew.
They continued fighting each other.
Clark's heat vision collided with Superman Gold's bio-field, and the resulting surge of energy swept away three Parademon legions that were gathering. Superman Gold delivered an elbow strike, which Clark dodged to the side, and the shockwave, powerful enough to shatter galaxies, sliced diagonally through Apokolips's orbital weapon platform.
Apokolips, this hellish planet made of steel, lava, and eternal war, is now experiencing the most absurd and humiliating moment since its birth.
It wasn't an invasion, it wasn't a conquest, it was being used as a boxing ring.
Two figures collided violently in the low sky above Apokolips.
Each exchange of blows caused spatial folds, and each dodge tore through the atmosphere. Golden torrents of energy poured down like a waterfall, illuminating the entire planet as if it were daytime.
But this devastating light precisely avoided all civilian areas.
The "commoners" of Apokolips.
The creatures living in the lava fissures trembled, yet remained unharmed. Their "god," Darkseid's army, however, faced annihilation.
Demon Nest.
Before the eggs could hatch, the entrance to the nest was swept away by a stray fist and turned to ashes. Parademons are the iconic creatures of Apokolips, created from captives on planets conquered by Darkseid. They have no thoughts or free will, and obey only Darkseid. They are the main force behind Darkseid's conquest of the multiverse.
Now, he has died before he could even begin his mission.
Even the Nemesis team, Darkseid's personal guard, was not spared, completely swallowed by the light and vanished without a trace in the universe.
This elite fighting force, composed of Darkseid's most elite warriors, had just awakened from their hibernation pods. Their armor was not yet fully activated, and Apokolips's defense system hadn't even had time to lock onto their targets.
"Alarm—Unknown Energy—"
"Activate plasma—"
"Quickly! Contact them—"
The words have not yet fallen.
Golden light surged in like a tide, engulfing them and the entire command center. There was no fighting, no resistance; the Nemesis, along with their prized technological warfare, evaporated completely in the light.
“No…this is impossible…” In the monitoring room, a high-ranking Parademonic commander stared at the screen, his voice trembling. The next second, a streak of fist energy grazed the outer orbit of Apokolips.
His tower was wiped out, along with him. The entire war machine of Apokolips was being cleansed in the most brutal way by a force beyond comprehension. Darkseid sat on his Omega Throne, forged from countless bones, his eyes fixed on the battle outside.
He, the tyrant of the universe, the destroyer of order, had forced countless civilizations to their knees beneath the Omega rays. Yet now, he seemed utterly helpless, like an enraged parent whose home had been invaded by a child.
"They...are fighting."
Darkseid's voice was deep and thunderous, yet carried a hint of unbelievable absurdity, "On my Apokolips... like street thugs... fighting?"
What enraged him even more was that the aftershocks of the fight between these two "thugs" precisely destroyed all his manpower and core technological facilities. Parademonic armories, antimatter cannon arrays, dimensional jump engines... strategic strongholds crumbled in golden light. Of course, this wasn't the most unsettling thing for Darkseid.
The main problem was that the two figures would occasionally deliver a few dirty punches to him.
His nose is all bruised from being hit.
Darkseid finally couldn't sit still any longer.
"Disgrace!" Darkseid roared, his eyes blazing with crimson flames. "My legions... my kingdom... have been trampled upon like this!"
His enormous body pressed down on the entire planet like a mountain.
"Since you want to play..."
The Dark King whispered, his voice echoing like the abyss.
"Then let me join this 'game.' When I stare into your eyes, shatter your dreams, and break your hearts, six billion eyes will follow."
He raised his right hand and pointed to the center of the battlefield.
The Omega Effect – Get Started!
In an instant, the sky of Apokolips was torn apart.
A crimson ray, more dazzling than the sun, burst forth from Darkseid's eyes, shooting straight into the sky and colliding with the battlefield of the two golden figures.
This is a power capable of erasing existence, distorting reality, and causing a target to completely disappear from space and time.
