Superman’s Saiyan little brother

"Alright!" However, Diana felt Robert's improvement in the midst of the battle, and her expression became excited. With a surge of fighting spirit, she shouted, "Your strength has improved rapidly. It seems I need to use some real power to deal with you!"

"Whoosh!" In an instant, the Sword of Fire God appeared in Diana's hand. Without hesitation, she slashed towards Robert, who no longer required any special consideration from her. Diana felt that apart from her divine power, she could now use all her other techniques!

This time, facing the Sword of Fire God, Robert's approach was completely different from before. Previously, he could sense the power of the Sword of Fire God and would always try to dodge or avoid its critical strikes. But this time was different!

"Clang!" A sound rang out as Robert's palm condensed a mass of Qi, turning it into a sharp blade to meet the Sword of Fire God. When the two collided, a metallic sound echoed!

Moreover, when the Qi Sword collided with the Sword of Fire God, it only trembled slightly and was not cut in half on the spot.

In the world of Dragon Ball, a technique like the Qi Sword was not very common, but almost every strong fighter could execute it, although the Qi Swords varied greatly from person to person.

At this moment, Robert's Qi Sword, fueled by the power of the Giant Ape's Rage and condensed in green Qi, operated in a circular slashing manner, its sharpness and solidity far surpassing that of ordinary Qi Swords!

"Great!" Seeing Robert unleash an unfamiliar technique, Diana's eyes brightened. Her Fire God Sword surged with a faint divine light as she continued her assault on Robert.

"Clang!" The Fire God Sword and the Qi Sword continued to collide, and after this clash, Robert changed his tactic. Using the force of the Fire God Sword to retreat, he launched a Ki Blast at Diana.

"Boom!" A sound thundered as Diana's divine shield protected her, forcing her body to retreat. In the next moment, Robert disappeared from his spot, reappearing behind Diana.

"Bang!" With a thud, Diana's body smashed into the ground, creating a large crater.

Clark, watching the battle secretly: ...He's really daring!

However, Robert's bolder moves were yet to come. After knocking Diana into the ground, he didn't stop. Mid-air, he directly formed a Kamehameha and blasted it into the deep pit where Diana was.

After all, Robert sensed that Diana's Qi was unaffected by his previous attack...

"Boom!" As the Kamehameha hit the pit, a dazzling divine light flashed from within, the power bursting from the Guardian Silver Bracelet. This divine light dispersed the Kamehameha, and Diana, clad in armor, wielding the Fire God Sword and divine shield, charged at Robert again.

"Hmm?" Robert sensed that Diana seemed to have locked onto his position. He didn't intend to dodge, but instead grew more excited. The green Qi around his body became more solid, and his eyes, with golden pupils, released a more ferocious will, clashing with the charging Diana.

However, Diana, radiating a faint divine glow, was not affected by this ferocious power. She swung her Fire God Sword again at Robert.

"Clang!"

"Bang!"

The Fire God Sword clashed with the Qi Sword again, followed by Diana's shield blocking Robert's punch. Diana then launched a powerful headbutt, striking Robert's head.

"Bang!" A burst of divine power erupted from the Starlight Crown on Diana's head. Robert, locked in a power struggle with Diana, was instantly sent flying and crashed into the ground.

"I'm having a hard time holding back. I hope you can really withstand this!" Diana's fighting spirit fully erupted, and she dived underground, pursuing Robert and speaking.

Diana had to admit that Robert's progress was incredibly fast. In just over a year, he had gone from needing only a little effort to fight him to now being unable to suppress him with all his power, excluding divine force.

Therefore, Diana began to gradually unleash her divine power, controlling the divine weapons on her body, elevating her combat strength to a new level.

"Boom!" Underground, a loud noise echoed, shaking the entire ground. Then, Robert's figure was sent flying from below. In mid-air, he stopped himself and launched multiple Ki Blasts at the pursuing Diana.

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

"Whoosh!"

With Diana's divine power enhancing the Fire God Sword, it unleashed its true power. Each strike completely eradicated the Ki Blasts. But at that moment, Robert had already reached Diana, launching an attack while she was busy slashing the Ki Blasts.

"Bang!" Diana reacted quickly, using her divine shield to block Robert's attack. However, she didn't expect Robert to be specifically targeting her divine shield.

Or rather, Robert thought Diana's divine artifacts were too troublesome and decided to disarm her, engaging in close-quarters combat!

"Snap!" Robert transformed his punch into a claw, grabbing the divine shield while his other hand formed a Ki Blast, striking Diana's body and kicking her simultaneously.

"Bang!" Facing the close-range Ki Blast, Diana dodged, but was hit by Robert's kick, her body retreating. The divine shield she held was snatched by Robert and thrown to the ground.

"What's the matter? Are you afraid of my divine artifacts?" Diana, hovering in mid-air, stopped and looked at Robert with a mocking smile.

"No, I just prefer a more direct, physical fight!" Robert waved his hand and replied with a smile.

"Clang!" Hearing this, Diana threw away her Fire God Sword, landing it next to the divine shield.

"I've already used my divine power. Using divine artifacts against you isn't really fair. Let's see if your current state can keep up with my body after I've unleashed my divine power!" A hint of fighting spirit flashed in Diana's eyes as she charged at Robert like a beam of light.

"So fast!" Robert's pupils dilated, and he instinctively blocked his side, stopping Diana's heavy punch and being blown away.

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

The first sound was of Robert being smashed into the ground again, while the other was Diana sending a Ki Blast flying, flattening the distant ground.

"Whoosh!" Facing Diana's continued onslaught, Robert used the Solar Flare to temporarily blind and disrupt her perception, halting her attack and launching a counterattack.

But Diana, fully unleashing her divine power, showed high resistance to the Solar Flare and reacted quickly. As Robert launched his attack, Diana was already striking again...

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

"Boom!"

In the sky, the sounds of collisions continued, but this time, unlike the evenly matched fight at the beginning, Diana was clearly more powerful than Robert!

If Robert's combat power could be divided into stages, the first would be his untransformed state, the second his full Qi eruption, the third his Berserker Fist, and the fourth his Giant Ape's Rage. Similarly, Diana's combat power had its stages.

The first was her normal state, the second slightly serious with half-god suppression lifted, the third using divine artifacts, and the fourth, her current state of fully unleashed divine power.

In this state, Diana completely overpowered Robert. Even with his Giant Ape's Rage power slowly increasing, he still couldn't turn the tide of the battle...

Time had passed since Robert's last fight with the Martian Manhunter. His progress wasn't slow, reaching his previous Martian Manhunter battle strength in his normal state, not to mention his enhanced Giant Ape's Rage. But even with such power, he clearly wasn't enough to defeat Diana in this state.

Especially since Diana likely had another state where she fully unleashed her divine power and let her artifacts release all their power. Diana in that state would be even more formidable...

"Boom!" The fight ended with one of Diana's punches, completely draining Robert's Qi, causing him to revert from his Giant Ape's Rage back to his normal form, and crash into a pit, narrowly avoiding replicating Yamcha's famous scene.

"Phew!" Diana exhaled a long breath, calming her fighting spirit and flushed cheeks, her eyes glinting with a smile as she looked at Robert on the ground.

"You've improved so fast. You're what, seventeen now?" Diana landed beside Robert, her Fire God Sword and divine shield returning to her. It seemed Robert's earlier plan to disarm her was unlikely to succeed.

"Yes, seventeen..." Robert, helped up by Diana, nodded weakly with a tired expression.

"Why do you still look like this? You haven't grown at all in over a year?" Diana, noticing Robert still looked youthful with no change in height or body, hesitated for a moment before speaking.

"Are you sure your species really grows when it matures? At your rate of improvement, you might match my strength next year..."

Initially, Diana didn't take her promise to Robert seriously. But as she fought and understood him better, she began to take it seriously, considering the implications of their agreement.

Because Diana thought having such a strong and combative partner was not bad, especially seeing Robert's potential. Even as her divine power grew, he could keep up with her...

But precisely because of this, Diana had to consider more factors, like the issue of Robert not growing taller. After all, this meant Robert not only appeared young but might also have an immature body...

Even though Robert didn't seem to care about their age difference, the problem was, if Robert really didn't grow, Diana couldn't go around saying this youthful-looking Robert was her husband. Even if Diana didn't mind others' views, being seen by others could lead to reports, far beyond the issue of an older woman with a younger man...

Diana couldn't always ask Robert to disguise himself with transformation techniques, right? And in her eyes, Robert's transformations were far less pleasing than his actual appearance...
