I'm doing bidirectional science popularization in American comics

Depp clearly didn't want to explain too much. He said, "They did that first, and then I just ran over and punched each of them."

"Yes, it's one punch, not two punches."

Alfred blew on the blood-stained teacup in his hand and said, "That's not what I meant, Mr. Depp. I meant... how did you control this power and prevent it from harming the surrounding area? I think that's what was really terrifying just now."

Depp thought for a moment and started talking nonsense: "Emmm, well, how should I put it, it's a kind of skill, Ah Fu, have you ever heard of receiving, neutralizing, and releasing?"

Alfred: "???"

Bruce emerged from his longtail shark armor and said, "We don't have time to discuss this. Since they've already attacked us, the others must have had a similar experience."

Upon hearing this, Gordon clenched his broad steel hand beneath his mechanical armor arm a few times and said, "Then what are we waiting for? Let's go support them now!"

Depp immediately realized something and said, "Bruce, keep me informed of everyone's situation. I'm going to check on Dick first!"

After saying that, Depp disappeared into the Batcave in a flash.

Because it suddenly occurred to him that the Court of Owls had always wanted to capture Dick and train him into a new claw.

Dick's talent was extraordinary, and the Court of Owls was well aware of it.

In the eyes of these guys, if Dick became Claw, he would become their sharpest knife!

So now that the attack has already begun, the guys from the Court of Owls will definitely not let go of the good opportunity to kidnap Dick!

Depp even thought that the Claw sent to kidnap Dick was likely someone with a close connection to Dick!

At Wayne Manor, Dick, having finished his mission for the night, had already changed out of Robin's uniform in another bat cave.

Wearing his pajamas, Little Dick lay down on the bed, feeling tired, wanting to fall asleep.

"This is such a headache, I have to go to school tomorrow." Dick complained, hugging his bat-shaped pillow. "I wonder when Johnny Depp will pick me up. Oh well, maybe I should skip class with Stone tomorrow!"

Thinking about his plan to skip class tomorrow, drowsiness gradually crept in, and Dick slowly closed his eyes.

The next moment, he suddenly opened his eyes, got up and looked out the window.

"I think something flashed by the window just now?"

Dick looked towards the window in confusion, only to find that there was nothing there.

Only a few pots of roses were swaying in the evening breeze.

"How strange!"

Dick pinched the little wings of the bat-shaped pillow in his arms, preparing to turn over and lie down.

However, the moment he turned around, a terrifying giant face, like that of a demon, suddenly appeared in front of Dick!

It turns out that the guy had already crossed the window and entered Dick's blind spot on the other side!

"Damn it, what is this thing?"

Dick was startled, but the wealth of combat experience he had accumulated over this period of time reminded him that he had not forgotten what he should do.

He ripped open the blanket with the Batman pattern and threw it at the strange face beside him.

He then immediately rolled out of bed and took out the two short sticks hidden under the pillow.

Seeing that the other person's body was covered by the blanket, Dick immediately grabbed a short stick and pounced on him.

Dick didn't want to give up this good opportunity to attack, after all, the opponent's vision was completely blocked because of the blanket!

Although it was only for a brief moment, Dick still seized the opportunity.

"Stealing a child in the middle of the night, you really have some nerve!" Dick raised his stick and swung it at the other man with all his might, saying, "No matter who you are, you've messed with the wrong person!"

To Dick's surprise, his confident strike was easily caught by the other party.

The other person didn't even break free from the bat-patterned blanket before catching the short stick that was being swung at him through the blanket.

Dick tried to pull the stick out, but it was no use.

The opponent's strength was immense, almost unbelievable.

Because Dick was convinced that even a well-trained adult could not grip his short stick like an iron clamp and prevent himself from pulling it out.

At the same time, several metal claws tore through the quilt from the wrist of the hand that was gripping the stick, almost piercing Dick's wrist.

Then, the entire quilt was torn to shreds by the claws.

The filling material inside was flung into the air and slowly fell down.

Dick finally saw the intruder's true colors!

This is a guy wearing a black close-combat suit and a helmet that looks like an owl.

"These guys...something's not right!"

At this moment, Dick finally realized that the guy who had sneaked into his room was neither a ghost nor an ordinary criminal.

The skills and equipment of these guys both suggest something unusual.

"Who exactly are you?"

Dick gripped the last remaining stick in both hands and asked, looking slightly nervous.

Wearing an owl-shaped helmet and sharp claws, he strode forward, slowly approaching Dick, and said, "Me? Of course, I'm your family, Dick... Grayson."

"Are you kidding me?" Dick said as he backed away. "I don't remember anyone in my family ever turning into an owl!"

“An owl?” The claw chuckled. “Heh, you’re certainly not an owl, but you’re destined to become an owl’s claw.”

Dick was momentarily confused by what this person said.

What owl?

What kind of claws?

I think you'd better get out of my house right now!

Dick raised the short stick with both hands, looking ready to fight to the death.

Just as Claw was preparing to defend himself, Dick suddenly threw the short stick at his opponent, then took out the rope he had hidden at his waist and threw it out the window.

"Goodbye, sir!"

After saying that, Dick immediately ran to the window and jumped out.

As a rope master, Dick was completely confident that he would not be injured at all when jumping from this height.

Dick was no fool. After realizing he was no match for his opponent, he decisively launched a feint attack and then chose to flee cleanly.

To Dick's surprise, the other person seemed to be even more skilled with ropes than he was!

Then, the shrewd man pulled out a rope from his waist and swung it around Dick's waist, who was already in mid-air.

Then, with a gentle pull, Dick was pulled back to his original position like a balloon.

If Dick's maneuver just now was as smooth as flowing water, then this Claw's maneuver can only be described as astonishing!

If it were simply a contest of circus skills, Dick might not be half as good as his opponent.

Claw looked at Dick, who was lying on the ground with a bewildered expression, and actually began to comment on his actions just now.

"Brave, decisive, resourceful, adept at assessing situations, and possessing remarkable skills and talent. Indeed, you are a genius!"

Upon hearing this, Dick scoffed and said, "This is a genius? You haven't met my dad, Johnny Depp!"

Claw used the rope Dick had just used to tie him up, then pulled the bound Dick up in front of him and said:

"I don't think we have time to bicker. If you'd like, we can have a proper chat when we get back."

Dick remained defiant, saying, "I advise you to put me down, otherwise when Depp finds out I've been arrested, you and your master, who knows where he's hiding in some ditch, will definitely be in big trouble!"

Through a brief conversation, Dick had confirmed that the man who called himself Claw was nothing more than a lackey of some man who called himself Owl.

And he truly believed that once Depp discovered he had been kidnapped, he would quickly find their hideout and wipe them out.

So Dick isn't worried right now, since the other party is still a human being, not something indescribable to us.

Upon hearing this, the claws laughed again, saying:

"Throughout history, many people have tried to find owls, but without exception they have all failed and been killed by their claws."

"As for that old man Depp you mentioned, I think I'll go find him, and I'll hand over his terrified head to you alone."

As soon as Claw finished speaking, a magnetic and sexy voice came from the window.

"I advise you, you son of a bitch, to put my son down right now!"

"Or else, you can have kerosene and fruit juice!"

Upon hearing Depp's voice, Dick immediately looked out the window with delight and shouted, "Dad!!!"

At this moment, Depp stood on the window like Tuxedo Mask, his Mirror of Deception already in place above his left eye socket.

At the same time, the clawed creature also fixed its gaze on Depp.

"You're Depp?" Claw said to Depp. "I originally only wanted to take Dick away today, but since you've delivered yourself to my doorstep, it's perfect for my blade to have a good meal."

"Good boy, Daddy will save you right away!" Depp responded enthusiastically, completely ignoring the menacing claws that had just finished making threats.

The ignored claws were momentarily angered. They said, "It seems you don't understand just how terrifying the being before you truly is!"

Upon hearing this, Depp frowned slightly and glanced at the man with the claws.

William Cobb's Claws

Main abilities: superhuman strength, speed, senses, self-healing ability, and immortality.

Affection level: Hostile.

really!

Depp thought to himself, "So it really is William Cobb who's here to arrest Dick!"

Although this man's surname wasn't Grayson, he was, by blood, Dick's great-grandfather.

Claw finally couldn't stand the way Depp looked at him anymore; that disdainful gaze made him feel insulted!

Then, Claw grabbed Dick with one hand and drew his katana from his back with the other.

The knife tip made a teeth-chilling sound as it scraped across the ground with each step he took.

He said, "To be honest, the thing I've hated most since I was a child is handsome men!"

However, to his surprise, the man who had been standing on the window suddenly disappeared in that instant.
