Robert was preparing to go to the Temple of Athena, not because he was confident he could defeat Diana and bring her home, but because Diana was the only one he had encountered so far who could match his skills.
Moreover, the most crucial point was that Diana had better control over her strength in battle compared to Clark and Kara. Robert could feel that during their previous fight, Diana mostly used strength corresponding to her qi, without exhibiting her divine powers.
However, the moment Diana's divine power burst forth, Robert realized that her true strength was far greater than he had perceived!
Several days later, Robert had fully recovered from his injuries, and his qi had risen since the fight. Indeed, battle was the best way for a Saiyan to improve...
Unfortunately, when Robert arrived at the Temple of Athena, Diana was not there. He made a special trip to the Louvre, but still couldn't find her.
At this time, Diana had returned to Paradise Island. After encountering Robert, she wanted to see if there were any records of his abilities on Paradise Island. She hadn't expected Robert to come looking for a fight so soon.
After failing to find Diana twice, Robert was not discouraged. He headed north to the Arctic, where he trained in the icy wilderness, and before he knew it, the vacation was over...
During this time, nothing significant happened. Valon and others hadn't found the next charm, and were still searching for the previous ones.
Valon learned that the Ox Charm had fallen into Jackie Chan's hands, but he didn't act rashly. Not knowing of Robert's existence, Valon thought that Section 13 might be more formidable than he anticipated. He needed to understand the organization behind Section 13 and Alex!
After all, Hydra is not afraid of waiting, and what they're best at is blending in!
Valon had already planted spies within Section 13. Even if they couldn't access the charms immediately, as long as Section 13 continued their search, these spies would be useful.
"Are you not planning to come back? School is starting soon. Martha and Kara have mentioned you several times. Do you plan to stay outside forever?" While training, Robert, who had lost track of time, suddenly heard Clark's annoyed voice in his mind.
Clark, looking at the ragged and animal skin-clad Robert, who now looked almost like a wild man, especially with his tail uncoiled, commented sarcastically.
"Huh?" Robert paused his training, putting down the huge block of ice he was holding, and muttered with some reluctance, "Time really flies! Okay, I'm coming back now... Huh? Kara mentioned me several times? Why would she mention me? And you know about it?"
"Kara's family has moved next to our house. They're our neighbors now. Martha gets along well with them. So, don't talk about your thing with Diana when you come back!" Clark's stern voice echoed in Robert's mind, puzzling him.
"Wait, I don't quite understand this causal relationship. Is there a connection?" Robert scratched his head in hesitation.
"Just remember what I said!" Clark warned him and then unilaterally ended the mental conversation.
"Robert told me he's coming back..." In the Kent farm, Clark, looking at Martha and Kara, who had now blended into the Kent family, said with a smile.
"Hmph! He finally knows to come back. Doesn't he like fighting? I'm going to teach him a lesson when he returns!" Kara's eyes lit up upon hearing this, then she pouted somewhat discontentedly.
"That's a good idea!" However, Clark didn't oppose this at all, but rather agreed.
"Ah?" Kara was stunned to hear Clark's agreement. She looked at him, confused, as did Martha beside her, not quite understanding why Clark would want Kara to give Robert a lesson.
"Do what you want to do! Maybe you'll get a surprise!" Clark didn't explain, instead encouraging Kara.
"Did Robert make Clark angry?" A thought flashed through Kara's mind, and the corners of her mouth curled up slightly. "Well, Robert disappeared for a whole summer vacation. Anyone would be angry!"
"Achoo!" On his way back, Robert sneezed and scratched his head in confusion, then continued towards the Kent farm without understanding why.
"I'm back!" When Robert entered their line of sight, Kara took off into the sky and flew towards Robert.
During the vacation, Kara had learned how to fly from Clark. After all, Clark's sudden flight that day was too conspicuous, and when she found out Robert could fly too, Kara, despite several embarrassing crashes, stubbornly mastered the ability to fly.
"Hmm? Kara? You can fly now? Good thing Uncle Long and the others can't fly..." Robert quickly sensed Kara's approaching qi. As he was speaking, he suddenly noticed Kara accelerating towards him, throwing a punch.
"Whoosh!" Kara's fist hit the air as Robert appeared high in the sky, looking at Kara in confusion. "Why are you ambushing me?"
"Who's ambushing you? Don't you like to fight? Come on, let's have a good fight..." Kara raised her fists, looking at Robert. "Let me see what progress you've made after playing around for so many days!"
"It's training, not playing, and it's fighting, not brawling," Robert tried to correct Kara, but then shook his head and gave up. It was good to spar with Kara. If it was a brawl she wanted, then so be it. "Alright, let's go!"
"Whoosh!" In an instant, Robert's qi surged, and he vanished from the spot, appearing in front of Kara with a punch.
"Hmph!" Kara's eyes narrowed, and everything seemed to slow down in her vision. When Robert appeared in front of her, she coldly snorted and punched back at Robert.
"Bang!" In the next moment, the sound of fist meeting flesh echoed, but it wasn't Robert who got hit. Kara was deceived by an afterimage, and Robert's punch landed on her abdomen. Kara stepped back slightly, then swung her fist at Robert in anger and frustration, missing again.
In terms of pure speed, it was hard to say whether Kara or Diana was faster, but in combat experience, Kara certainly lacked some. Especially since she seemed to be getting angrier for not being able to hit Robert...
"Perfect!" Seeing Kara's anger, Robert's eyes lit up slightly. He wanted to see how much difference there was between himself after a vacation's training and an unrestrained Kara.
"Bang!" The next moment, Robert punched at Kara's fist, only to be sent flying backward, crashing into the ground.
