Feeling the undamaged vibranium in his hand and seeing the gaze from Robert and Kara, Clark's expression gradually became serious. Even Robert could see a hint of excitement in Clark's demeanor, as if he was thrilled by the existence of something in the world he couldn't destroy!
"Hmm?" Robert quickly frowned, feeling a suffocating pressure rising from Clark. Clark's aura didn't change, but this pressure made Robert's expression solemn.
Kara also felt this pressure and quietly stepped back two steps. She had to admit, as a Kryptonian, she really wasn't much compared to Clark, her cousin. The gap wasn't just in the amount of sunlight they absorbed!
At this moment, Clark wasn't paying attention to Robert and Kara; his focus was entirely on the vibranium in his hands. His power gradually surged as if unlocking a seal or lifting a restriction, unleashing all his strength.
"Crack! Crack!" Soon, slight cracking sounds began, not from the vibranium in Clark's hands but from the ground under his feet.
Even though Clark concentrated most of his strength on the vibranium, the mere leakage of his power was enough to crack the ground beneath him.
Clark seemed to realize this too, and his body slowly floated up. But as he took off, an even more terrifying oppressive force burst from him!
"So strong!" Robert frowned deeply. Although Clark's aura hadn't changed, such oppressive force was almost tangible!
"Is the gap really that big?" Kara blinked doubtfully, looking somewhat lost at Clark. At this moment, she felt like she never really knew her cousin, who seemed to have hidden so much.
But then again, Kara was always by Robert's side, not even aware of Clark's daily sunbathing to enhance his strength...
With a "snap!" just as Kara and Robert were pondering, Clark suddenly clapped his palms together, the air trembling rapidly, and a whirlwind blew out from his palms.
"Whoosh!" Clark exhaled lightly, and the whirlwind instantly dispersed as if it had never appeared.
"Hmm? Where's the vibranium?" Kara looked suspiciously at Clark's palms, "Did it just disappear?"
"No, it's flattened." Clark opened his palm to reveal a piece of metal that looked like paper. After examining it closely, he explained, "It seems that when strength exceeds a certain level, surpassing vibranium's tolerance, its internal molecular structure is completely destroyed. Now, it's no different from a normal piece of metal paper..."
"So strong!" Robert looked at the piece of vibranium in Clark's hand that was indeed like a sheet of paper and couldn't help but admire.
"Wait a minute, if Clark flattened this piece of vibranium, doesn't that mean the mech is missing a piece?" Kara also nodded subconsciously but soon realized and pointed at the incomplete vibranium mech.
"Uh..." Clark was momentarily stunned, then looked at the piece of vibranium paper in his hand, not sure what to say.
"No worries, I didn't plan to use it for anything when I brought it back. Testing the gap between me and Clark is also good!" Robert seemed unconcerned, waving his hand. It was just a trophy, valuable, but Robert had no concept of money.
The money transferred from Jackie Chan, in some unknown way, was also given to the Kents. Robert didn't bother with it.
Thus, Robert found a new goal: the day he could fully destroy vibranium would be the day he caught up with Clark.
Even if Clark reached new heights by then, Robert believed he could keep improving. After all, he was already making progress with the power of the Great Ape.
With that, Robert temporarily abandoned testing vibranium and focused on studying Mark Fuchen and the power of the Great Ape. He traveled back and forth between the Kent farm and Kong, also sparing time to fight with Kara and Kong...
The only regret for Robert was that he seemed to be running out of time. He had planned to spar with Diana but never found the opportunity.
As for sparring with Kong, it wasn't very effective. Every fight with Kong had to be in the Great Ape form, which was too overpowering for Kong, providing no improvement.
However, Kong learned many techniques from their battles, going from slightly weaker to having the upper hand against the Tyrannosaurus Rex. It seemed he was not far from defeating the Tyrannosaurus Rex.
Fighting with Kara also posed some problems. Unlike Diana, who could engage in real combat, Kara couldn't truly fight, even if Robert tried to provoke her. After one angry punch, Kara would calm down...
Months later, as the summer vacation was more than halfway over, Robert finally made some progress. He successfully evolved a gentle Qi that constantly nourished his body, further enhancing his recovery speed.
"Robert, you're just in time! There's news about another charm!" As Robert was about to hand over Mark Fuchen to Jackie Chan, Jackie Chan excitedly told Robert, "It's the Sheep Charm, possessing the magic of astral projection. This should be the easiest charm to obtain. It's on a charlatan who seems to be using it to swindle people..."
"Astral projection?" Robert raised his eyebrows. He was naturally familiar with souls, as the world of Dragon Ball didn't have a strict divide between soul and body. Robert had seen many strong beings in soul form.
"Yeah, since he's using the Sheep Charm's power to swindle, why don't we just take the charm while his soul is out of his body?" Jackie Chan nodded, suggesting what he thought was a good plan.
"Alright, let's do it your way this time. After all, the power of the Sheep Charm isn't that strong..." Robert shrugged, seemingly indifferent.
Robert wasn't very interested in the Sheep Charm this time, unless a strong being like the one who saved John Walker last time appeared...
Meanwhile, on the streets of Los Angeles, a disheveled man with a carefree aura wandered around, a cigarette in his mouth. He wore a charm on his chest, bearing the shape of a sheep, and seemed to be murmuring something...
