Chapter 336 I Believe I Have a Perfect Retirement Plan

Chapter 336 I'm sure I have a perfect retirement plan...

"In fact, it's because Diana's personality is more like a warrior than a leader."

This is definitely an extremely insightful summary of Diana.

In fact, it seems a bit ridiculous to say that Wonder Woman is the only superhero among the Big Three who kills without blinking an eye, even though her specific killing creed is "never use lethal force unless necessary."

However, this does not mean that Diana is decisive in killing. Or her decisiveness in killing is only reflected in dealing with enemies, such as snapping Maxwell Lord's neck neatly in a certain timeline.

(Note: A Justice League villain, a very powerful telepath, who once tricked Superman into thinking he was fighting his nemesis, but actually beat up Batman and Wonder Woman. After barely escaping Superman's attack, Wonder Woman confronted him and decisively killed him for the benefit of humanity. However, Lord anticipated his own death and broadcast the scene of Wonder Woman killing him live to the world, ruining Wonder Woman's reputation. This incident, like "Death in the Family" and "Emerald Twilight", became one of the important reasons for Superboy-Prime to believe that the world before him is hopeless.)

But when it comes to those whom Wonder Woman identifies as "friends", she is not so decisive.

For example, Cheetah, Barbara Minerva. Diana always thought that Cheetah was her good friend. She turned bad because of the leopard curse brought by the magic dagger. So their long-term struggle has been carried out in the way of "good sister, I want to save you back", but in fact...

Barbara Minerva is just a pseudonym. She approached Wonder Woman just to get into Amanda Waller's Eye Bureau to get the magic dagger "Blade of God Killer" and then turn herself into a superpowered magic leopard-headed man.

She did not become bad because of accepting the power of the leopard god, but she had ulterior motives.

In short, Wonder Woman is an excellent executor and leader of the assault team, but she is not a leader.

She does not have the courage to sacrifice others. In this respect, she is the same as the Flash.

But Chen Tao is different. He knows and he is always ready...

For example, the time when he used the entire Justice League as batteries.

Oh, of course, of course. Chen Tao didn't mean that he sacrificed Green Lantern Hal's free will to control his mind, but that Killer Croc had been standing by the battery charging the entire Justice League on standby.

Standby.

Specifically.

Killer Croc could unplug the magician of the Rogues from the "circuit" when he was about to die and let him rest, or even give him a bat sandwich to eat. He could also force the magician, who was too weak to resist, to be hung up again and burned to death after the meditation mite, gorilla Grodd, and turtle were all dead - if there was no other choice.

Okay, this may sound a bit dark, and it must be done when even the "Wandering Earth Plan" cannot be carried out, but it does not mean that such a plan does not exist.

But can you imagine such a final plan being made by Diana? Obviously impossible.

Chen Tao has always put this sacrifice option behind all other options. In the previous incident when Flash fought Johnny Quick, in addition to his clone preparing special means to deal with the speedster, Chen Tao also arranged for Wonder Woman to go to Barry's battlefield on standby, which is why Wonder Woman did not appear with him at Superman.

Perhaps these gave Wonder Woman and the others the illusion that Batman would never sacrifice anyone, but this was only because Chen Tao had the power at his disposal at the time.

After fooling Wonder Woman with two or three sentences, Chen Tao turned his head and looked at Luther.

"Diana will soon realize that I am deliberately sending him away. When she comes back, help me get rid of her. You have the eloquence."

"..." Luther did not speak.

"Come on, Luther, haven't you made up your mind yet?"

"Think about it. You have participated in the affairs of the Justice League before, and you know exactly what the League is doing."

Chen Tao stood up. This is a physical action of "invading the other party's territory".

He looked down at Luther from a high position.

"Let me ask a somewhat impolite question: What have you done to make the world a better place?"

"Look, some people are actually doing it, while some people are doing nothing but pointing fingers at those who are doing it. If you look up your past remarks on the Internet, you should soon realize that you used to be the latter."

Luthor wanted to say something, but Chen Tao pinched his shoulder:

"So I was very pleased, Lex, when you told me that you were going to join the Justice League, I approved it without hesitation. You are a genius, a real genius, and I am very pleased that you really intend to do something for mankind, instead of being trapped in a twisted jealous mentality and wasting your genius mind."

"But you waste your time depriving those powers that are useless to you. I have to admit that you have a genius mind that is unparalleled in the world. I guess you should have used the platform of the Justice League to attract a large number of super-powered people, and you have a deep friendship with the official members. In addition, you are also familiar with the Justice League's facilities and location intelligence and many other contact points with the government, and..."

Chen Tao revealed a long list of things Luthor did, which made Lex Luthor look a little gloomy.

Chen Tao then said:

"Please don't get me wrong, I know this doesn't mean I'm countering what you did. You did a great job, and as a usurper you've got everything ready, but this isn't what the leader of the Justice League should do."

"You've used your amazing wisdom in the wrong place, you're too obsessed with power, and you realize it yourself. But the way you plan to stop yourself from being obsessed with power is to quit the Justice League?"

"What an idiotic idea, the Justice League is not a place to seize power, it's you who turned it into a playground for those who get more power every day. Now that things have come to this, you're blaming everything on your participation in the Justice League?"

His tone slowed down a little:

"Look at the world we live in. Off the coast of Indonesia, A boat with hundreds of people on board capsized, an earthquake in the South Pacific flattened an entire island. "

"From the terrible individual atrocities of a gunman to the bloody conflicts sweeping across the country, peace is on thin ice, discrimination, disease, terrorism, bullying, pollution, famine... Whether it is on the school playground or the battlefield, natural disasters and man-made weapons of mass destruction, the threats we face are countless."

"Listen, Luthor. I know you are an ordinary human being and you don't have superpowers, but I am sure you will never say, "I am not Superman or Batman, how can I help?" Because your name is Lex Luthor, you will only say:"

"'Where should I start? '"

"I will tell you where to start now."

Chen Tao stared at the bald man. His eyes went from his blue hospital gown to the support on his neck, and finally to his eyes.

He looked into his blue-green eyes.

"Start with what you can do, because no matter how insignificant an action is, out of your kindness and generosity to the world or simply being positive and optimistic, it will make the world a little better."

"Similarly, there are ways to make greater changes. In this world that cultivates false moral intoxication, you must put down your arrogance!"

"Because the world does not belong to any one of us, but to all of us."

...

...

...

Chen Tao left the hospital with a brisk pace.

Luthor agreed not to leave the Justice League. Chen Tao believed that he would focus all his attention on developing experimental projects for himself on how to strengthen the crime syndicate.

He would have to arrange for Lucius, Cyborg's father Dr. Silas Stone and Luthor to work together... The three of them would be more efficient together and could keep an eye on Luthor.

And he could take over those superpowers that Luthor had previously recruited for the Justice League.

To be honest, there are actually two important points for this mouth cannon to succeed. Luthor wanted to leave the Justice League, of course because he thought the league affairs were dragging down his energy. In fact, Chen Tao thought it was probably because the longer Luthor stayed in the Justice League, the more he would find that no matter what he did, he could not squeeze Batman out and take his place. The final result would be like the 60-year-old prince of the 80-year-old emperor, so he planned to give up.

And Chen Tao's long speech sounded better than singing, and it was a chicken soup for all of us. In fact, the message conveyed was only one:

"Brother, if you can really handle this league, why don't you become the boss?"

This is equivalent to a promise that "as long as the prince can govern the country without worries, I will be the emperor, so what's wrong with that"...

So Luthor continued to work peacefully not because he was so kind, but purely because the exchange of interests was in place.

However, Chen Tao did not intend to really entrust the entire Justice League to Luthor. The moral standards of the bald guy were too low, and there was no bottom line at all. This is why he is always a villain.

Although Chen Tao is not a very good person sometimes, he still has a bottom line. When there are not enough death row prisoners, people like Luthor even have a dark history of finding people to go to the streets to capture innocent homeless people for human experiments. Chen Tao must put someone in the Justice League who can balance him.

And this person is Hal Jordan. The only person with leadership ability among the remaining members of the Justice League.

As Chen Tao thought about it, he began to think in his mind:

Luthor is responsible for making plans, Hal is responsible for defining the moral bottom line, Wonder Woman is responsible for execution, Martian Manhunter balances the relationship between the members of the League and the relationship with the government, Flash is responsible for running errands, Aquaman is responsible for being a meat shield, Batman is responsible for retirement, Shazam is responsible for being a child, and Superboy is responsible for helping. Perfect!

Oh my god, how can there be such a perfect structure in the world? I am so moved that I cried.

Ahem.

But now Hal is still on Oa Star and refuses to come back. All these will have to wait until Hal comes back.

It's still early, but the general framework is determined.

And Chen Tao has also made up his mind. Hal will stay on Earth and let him be the leader of the Justice League. As for the daily affairs of the Green Lantern Corps, he will find a way to get a few more Green Lantern rings, and get John Stewart, Guy Gardner, Kyle Rayner, Simon Baz, and all of them. Are you still afraid that the Green Lantern Corps will find Hal?

(Note: The long list of names mentioned are all Green Lanterns from Earth, all of whom are Hal's descendants.)

But to be honest, is Hal so angry? It's just a small manipulation to prevent him from having the idea of ​​disobeying his orders. And he deceived the other party to agree in advance.

As a result, Hal still doesn't want to talk to me at all and doesn't give any response.

This is too much anger.

Chen Tao shook his head.

Forget it, he had a more important matter to deal with:

About Talia and Damian.

The mother and son had been waiting for him for a long time.

Chen Tao planned to send Damian to the Teen Titans...

There were a lot of things to do.

…

…

…

"What's wrong with the Power Ring?"

In a corner, in the Crime Syndicate's base.

Superman slapped the table and bit the kryptonite in his mouth with a crunching sound. The poor table could not withstand the super strength of the Kryptonians at all, and it broke into two sections on the spot after a loud creaking sound.

Not far away, Johnny Quick was beaten with blood all over his body, and two bones were broken. Night Owl stood silently not far away, and Super Queen strangled Atom Girl who wanted to pounce on her lover.

Superman wiped the blood on his fist.

"He said he wanted to go to the planet Oa in this world to do something, and I approved it. But now he doesn't plan to come back? Are you kidding me?"

There was a fierce light in his eyes: "Maybe you all got too wild in the new world and forgot who is..."

"To be exact, we lost contact, Chaoba."

The Martian guest told Chaoba:

"And it's not that the Divine Ring doesn't want to, we all know his situation, he is just a puppet completely controlled by the ring, and the ring doesn't even allow him to bring a communicator, but he has to transmit through the ring itself. "Then did he tell us what he was doing before he lost contact? He told me at that time that the ring told him that he could increase his strength as long as he went to Oa Star, so I let him go." "Yes, Superman, the power ring told us what he was doing before it lost contact." "What is he doing? Tell me." "He is attacking Oa Star." ... ... ... ... ... ... "Luthor!!! " Wonder Woman returned to Luthor's ward angrily. "He was just fooling me! Where is he now?" Luthor's face, as white as a boiled egg, was covered with a helpless fake smile. "I know you are anxious, but don't be anxious..." Damn, why do I always feel like I am cleaning Batman's ass.
