Superman’s Saiyan little brother

Chapter 161: Steve and Bucky



"Since you're going to be Superman, Clark, how can you not have your own uniform? Peter Parker and the others are all making their own uniforms. I'll design one for you, Clark, what do you think?" Robert blinked when he heard Clark's words, as if he had thought of something, and looked at Clark with some anticipation.

"You? Alright, let me see what you come up with." Clark was initially skeptical of Robert, but thinking about the nickname Robert had just given him, Clark ultimately agreed.

"Um, we definitely need the S-shaped symbol on the chest, and there should be a red cape too. Most importantly, the red underwear... Ah!" Robert hadn't finished mentioning the red underwear when he felt a sense of danger and awkwardly dodged a sneak attack of heat vision. Robert saw a big pit on the ground, followed by Clark's displeased face and the somewhat confused looks of the people around.

"The earlier suggestions were okay, but we don't need the rest!" Clark glared at Robert and decided on the uniform's style: it would feature the S-shaped family emblem and have a red cape on the back. As for the red underwear, that was absolutely out of the question! Clark would never wear it, not in a million years!

"Clark... are you really ready?" Jonathan looked at Clark, who had made his decision, and asked with some concern.

At this moment, it was Jonathan who hesitated, because he didn't know what impact Clark's stepping forward would have on the world, and how people would view Clark.

"Dad, I'm ready! I've thought it through during this time, and I will keep my two identities separate. It won't affect my normal life," Clark said earnestly to Jonathan.

"And I've also discovered that there are many extraordinary powers in this world. Maybe there won't be the kind of crisis events that Robert is worried about, but for ordinary people, sometimes even not-so-powerful forces can pose a threat to their lives!"

"If you've decided, then go for it! Clark, I believe in you," Jonathan patted Clark's shoulder, somewhat emotionally, "This day has finally come. It's time for you to embrace your own life!"

"Should I get involved with the situation in Gotham City? Are those two really not teaming up to clean up Gotham's environment?" Having decided to appear before the public in another identity, Clark naturally also paid attention to the recent events in Gotham City.

However, Clark wasn't very confident about solving the problems in this city, filled with a dark aura, especially since he couldn't be sure whether Batman and the Joker's recent confrontations were genuine...

Moreover, the problems in Gotham City were clearly not just caused by the shadow warriors sent by the Joker this time; the city itself was complicated and rife with criminals! Clark felt that he could indeed capture these criminals if he intervened, but that wouldn't fundamentally solve the high crime rate problem in Gotham City.

On the other hand, if Robert were to act in his usual manner, the effect might be better. After all, if criminals were killed as soon as they appeared, at least many would not dare to commit crimes openly. Using violence to stop violence is not entirely without merit...

But sadly, this was not Clark's way of doing things. He didn't want to present himself to the world as someone as decisive in killing as Robert.

Now that Clark had officially started his career, with several instances of rescuing humans in danger, Clark's Superman moniker had gradually begun to spread.

On the other hand, a special person got in touch with Robert, someone who had had a brief encounter with Robert before - Steve.

During the Christmas holidays, Steve held another small-scale art exhibition, and at the exhibition, Steve suddenly saw a familiar figure...

Even though Steve hadn't seen this figure for decades, he recognized it immediately because this figure belonged to Steve's comrade-in-arms, his best brother, Bucky Barnes!

Upon seeing Bucky's familiar figure, Steve rushed out without any hesitation. Even though Bucky had fallen off a cliff and his life or death was unknown in his memory, in such a world full of superpowers, what if a miracle had happened?

Thus, he ran after him, but could not escape.

Soon, Steve, aged but still as fast as in his youth, caught up with Bucky and successfully stopped him. Even though Bucky was now wearing a strange mask and his temperament had greatly changed, Steve recognized him from his eyes!

"Bucky!" Steve called out Bucky's name excitedly, and Bucky, upon hearing Steve's words, trembled slightly. Clearly, he also recognized Steve.

"Steve... you've gotten so old... Uh!" Bucky had just responded to Steve when he suddenly clutched his head in pain. As Steve moved forward with concern to check on Bucky, Bucky quickly stopped him, "Don't come closer! I'll lose control! Or rather, I can't stay lucid for long..."

"What happened? Bucky... Uh!" Steve was worriedly looking at Bucky and was about to ask about the situation when Bucky suddenly looked up, a fierce light flashing in his eyes, and threw a punch at Steve.

With a "bang," Steve's expression hardened. He first blocked Bucky's punch, but Bucky's second punch, a metal fist, followed immediately. Steve was sent flying and landed awkwardly on the ground. He had chased after Bucky without bringing his old pal, the shield, and now regretted it. After all, his vigilance had indeed decreased after so many years of silence.

Even though Steve had already encountered the enchantment event and briefly fought with animal warriors, it was clear that Steve's current age was not suitable for always maintaining a peak state of readiness.

"Bucky, what's wrong with you?" Steve frowned, dodging and calling out Bucky's name, trying to wake him up.

But it didn't have much effect, and Steve also discovered that the current Bucky had undergone a complete transformation from the Bucky he knew. Not only did Bucky have a metal arm, but his strength and speed were much greater than what Steve remembered, as if he had taken the super soldier serum. However, in Steve's memory, Bucky had never received the super soldier serum...

Speaking of which, Bucky encountering Steve was also a coincidence. HYDRA had sent Bucky on a mission nearby, and when Bucky saw Steve, his memories loosened slightly, and he subconsciously approached Steve, leading to the current situation...
