Become a Homelander and a Marvel superstar

"You understand conquest, you understand destruction, you think you've seen through the laws of the universe..."

His gaze toward Harley was filled with endless affection.

"...But you'll never understand the miracles a person can unleash when someone they want to protect stands behind them."

Love is not weakness.

Ah Zu's voice grew louder and louder.

"Love is the courage of a mother to raise her fist against a wild beast in order to protect her child."

"Love is the faith of a warrior who is willing to sacrifice himself for the sake of the lights of thousands of homes behind him."

"Love is my determination to stand here, even if it costs me my last drop of blood, to protect those I love!!"

The moment those words were spoken, the whole world seemed to come to a standstill.

What kind of hero is this?

For humanity, for loved ones, they crawled back from hell with unimaginable unwavering will.

"Homelanders!"

Homelander!!

A thunderous roar of shouts spontaneously erupted in every corner of the world.

Popularity surged into the system like a torrent.

Harley's tears had already burst forth, and she pressed her hands tightly to her heart, which was pounding so violently it felt like it would burst out of her chest.

Hint! Gained +20000 Special Popularity Points! (From Harley Quinn)

"Your persistence is pointless, just disappear!"

Darkseid's eyes lit up red again, and Omega energy gathered wildly.

Facing the impending game-winning shot.

Azu forced a smile, withdrew his affectionate gaze from Harley, and turned to glare angrily at Darkseid.

"You monster who only knows destruction and enslavement, you will never understand what love is!!"

"Today, I'll show you—!"

Ah Zu took a step forward, without any fancy moves or complicated actions; it seemed like just an ordinary straight punch.

"What the greatest power in the world!!" Azu roared to the sky.

"Love—Immeasurable—!!!"

The attention of the world seemed to be focused on his right fist, which was tucked into his waist.

A white light, seemingly capable of illuminating the universe, burst forth from Azu's fist.

This light was even more dazzling than a supernova explosion.

At that moment, all the audience lost their sight, and all they could see was a vast expanse of white.

Amidst this endless light, a terrifying torrent of energy capable of destroying the heavens and the earth crashed head-on into Darkseid.

"No! This can't be!! Ahh ...

The people could clearly hear Darkseid's terrified roar.

The thick clouds above the metropolis were forcibly cleaved apart by this force, and the fist-like wind that broke through the sky even turned several meteorites outside the atmosphere into cosmic dust.

The continuous roar caused by that punch echoed throughout the heavens and earth for a long time.

"Click." The Master Ball retracted into the magic pocket, and everything happened without anyone noticing.

A full half minute passed.

The vengeful white light gradually subsided, and everyone's vision began to return.

When all eyes returned to the center of the battlefield, they witnessed a scene they would never forget.

The ruins remain ruins, but the invincible Apokolips tyrant, Darkseid, still stands.

But it has already disappeared.

Not even a speck of ash remained.

It was as if he had never existed in this world.

Only the red and blue figure remained, still in the gesture of throwing a punch, standing quietly in place.

"Mr. Candy—!"

A scream shattered the silence.

Harley Quinn, clutching the tattered hem of her wedding dress, frantically leaped over the rubble and charged toward Azu without regard for anything else.

Ah Zu withdrew his fist and turned to face her.

Harley lunged into his arms, the momentum causing them both to fall to the ground.

"You won! You won!"

Harley buried her head in his chest and sobbed uncontrollably. She held him tightly with both hands, as if he would disappear if she let go.

"You bastard! You scared me! I really thought you were going to die!"

Ah Zu held Harley's trembling body, gently wrapping his arms around her back and patting her softly.

"How could I die, little pumpkin?"

"I told you, I would come back and marry you."

Bruce, Barry, Mera, and others also walked over, supporting each other.

They watched the two people lying on the ground embracing, but did not go forward to disturb them; they simply stood silently to the side.

I don't know who started it.

A burst of applause began to ring out in the Metropolitan Plaza.

Then came ten, a hundred, ten thousand.

The applause spread like a virus, from the square to the entire metropolis, and then through the live broadcast signal to every corner of the earth.

A billion people around the world applauded at the same time, their cheers shaking the heavens.

Darkseid is dead.

The threat from Apokolips has been completely eliminated.

Earth has finally ushered in a true dawn.

"You did it, Homelander. No, I mean... the Federation leader," Bruce said with a respect he had never shown before.

Azu managed a weak smile as he forced a smile to his lips.

"Isn't this... what I should do?"

"Now that Darkseid is dead, Earth is finally safe."

"So, now..."

Azu grasped Harley's hand and lifted it into the air.

"I'd like to ask everyone for a favor. I'm going to have my wedding with my little pumpkin..."

These words stunned the entire audience.

Even Harley was stunned.

"Are you crazy, darling?!" She hurriedly grabbed Ah Zu's hand, her voice anxious. "You're injured like this, and although I really want to, I don't need to rush! You need to get treatment first, go rest! Once you're better, we'll have the biggest wedding in the world, okay?"

"Yes, Homelander," Barry quickly urged, "You're badly injured, let's go to the medical bay first..."

"No."

Azu shook his head, decisively interrupting them, as stubborn as a child.

"Right now."

He reached out his hand, trembling, and in his palm lay a small velvet box stained with blood.

"The ring...I've got it all ready."

The box was opened, and inside lay a pair of exquisite platinum wedding rings.

"I never break my promise, Harley."

"will you marry me?"

Harley looked at the rings and was deeply moved, but she still wanted to force him onto the stretcher.

"Okay, let's hold it now!"

It was Batman, Bruce Wayne, who stepped forward.

He stepped forward and gave Ah Zu a deep look.

As one of the world's most astute detectives, Bruce had already sensed something was amiss.

He looked at Azu's scarred and ravaged body.

Then I recalled the extraordinary power that Homelander had just unleashed, which could never have come without a price.

All of this led to a terrifying idea taking shape in his mind.

A final burst of energy before death.

He was using his last breath to fulfill his promise to this woman.

Bruce lowered his eyelids, concealing the sadness welling up in his eyes.

When he looked up again, his face had regained its solemn, unsmiling expression.

"I'll be the officiant," Bruce said in a deep voice.
