Chapter 033: The Possibility of Strangling World War II

From this, one thing could be seen.

No one is irreplaceable.

But the importance of some people is completely self-evident.

After Hua Tuo died, Mafeisan was lost, and it wasn't until over a thousand years later that someone invented anesthesia.

If Einstein had disappeared, how many years would it have taken for the theory of relativity to be proposed—ten years, fifty years, a hundred years, or even longer?

Without Nikola Tesla, would we still be using direct current today?

Without Qin Shi Huang, how many more years would it have taken to unify the seven states, and would history have been completely altered afterward?

Without Hitler, would World War II have been so brutal? Or would it have even happened at all? That was still a question.

So Wang Bo's solution was simple.

Start by building a nuclear bomb and strangle the chief culprit of World War II. In this way, perhaps World War II in this world could be avoided.

Since Ares could secretly drive humans to kill each other, leading to World War I, then Wonder Woman Diana could secretly guide humans to avoid World War II.

After hearing Wang Bo's series of ideas, Diana couldn't help but be tempted. If doing this could really prevent World War II, that would be great—after all, it was the largest war in human history.

"I... what should I do?" Diana couldn't help but ask. Although this idea was good, she really didn't know where to start.

Fighting wars, fighting enemies, fighting gods—none of that was a problem for her.

But secretly guiding humans—that task was far too broad.

Wang Bo thought for a moment and said, "You can gather like-minded friends and companions, lead them to rise to prominence in high society, and then influence the entire world."

"Specifically?" Diana asked.

"Well, let me think first."

Although Wang Bo had given a rough plan, perfecting it and implementing it was no easy task.

Even he had to be cautious.

So Wang Bo went to find Miss Friday to discuss it with her.

Of course, Conqueror and Blackwing were also there. With everyone together, pooling their wisdom, they should be able to come up with a good plan.

Meanwhile, while everyone was discussing day and night, World War I finally ended.

Both the Central Powers and the Allies could no longer bear the damage and losses from the protracted war. Eventually, Germany and Austria surrendered, and U.S. President Wilson issued the "Fourteen Points" peace declaration, officially ending World War I.

While the nations were quietly licking their wounds, Wang Bo, Diana, and the Transformers like Friday were still constantly discussing how to prevent World War II.

After more than a month of nonstop discussion, they finally formulated a plan.

First, Wang Bo had Diana register shell companies in her name in countries like the United States and Germany. Diana didn't need to worry about the registration capital, because Wang Bo had plenty of money.

Of course, Diana didn't care about that either, as she was also very wealthy.

Then, Wang Bo would provide some relatively advanced technology—of course, these so-called advanced technologies were only a decade or so ahead of the current era.

But Wang Bo believed that in this way, these shell companies would quickly become real companies, rise, and eventually become giant corporations.

Then, Diana could openly amass a vast amount of the world's wealth.

This wealth could be used for many things, such as recruiting talent, building bases, establishing organizations, secretly monitoring the world, promoting technological development, improving people's lives, and making anti-war films.

They could even use economic warfare to control the economies of Germany and the United States.

In this way, strangling World War II would be too easy.

Diana could even use money to establish an organization similar to S.H.I.E.L.D. to maintain world peace.

Although this would be complicated to do, Wang Bo believed that with Diana's abilities, she would not fail.

But this task required a lot of time. Even with Wang Bo's help, allowing them to travel freely anywhere in the world, just registering shell companies took up a huge amount of their time.

Without Wang Bo, just traveling alone would have taken a lot of time.

"Maybe we can find some capable people to help us."

One day, after leaving a bank in London, Diana felt that this approach wouldn't work and decided to start recruiting people immediately.

Wang Bo naturally had no objection to this. "Okay."

Diana asked, "So who do you think we should recruit?"

Wang Bo thought for a moment and said, "I think Steve Trevor is a good choice."

Reminded by Wang Bo, Diana also remembered the man who had nearly sacrificed his life to stop the war. She nodded and said, "He is indeed a good candidate, but he has already forgotten us."

"That's simple. I can restore his memory," Wang Bo said confidently.

"I haven't asked you yet—why did you mention his name the first time we met?" Diana asked curiously.

"There's nothing to hide. If you hadn't traveled through time, you would have stayed on Themyscira until Steve appeared, believed that World War I was Ares's doing, left Themyscira with Steve, and after many hardships, defeated Ares."

Wang Bo smiled and said, "When I asked if you knew Steve, I wanted to see whether you were the warrior who had defeated Ares or a novice just starting out. But I forgot that you had traveled to that world, defeated many monsters, and were already a qualified warrior."

Diana said, "But even so, I am no match for you."

"Of course. I am very strong," Wang Bo said without modesty. "And you still have room to grow. In the future, you will be even stronger than you are now."

"Then in the future, you will be even stronger too, right?"

"Of course."

Wang Bo had no doubt about this. After all, he could grow stronger just by absorbing sunlight, becoming more powerful day by day.

Naturally, he would be stronger in the future than he was now.

"So that means I'll never catch up to you," Diana said somewhat defiantly. She really wanted to beat Wang Bo, even just once.

Wang Bo shrugged helplessly.

Superman's upper limit was just that awesome. He couldn't help it. He wanted to be low-key, but his strength wouldn't allow it.
