The League appeared divided, and the Furies seized the opportunity. They swiftly charged at Granny Goodness, their blades slicing through the air with deadly precision. In an instant, her head was separated from her body before she could even react.

Catching everyone's attention, Gohan raised his hand towards Granny Goodness. "Hakai," he uttered, and a look of terror flashed across her face as she dissolved into purple sparkles, disappearing into nothingness.

"Stop doing that!" Clark's voice echoed through the chaos, filled with a mix of disbelief and horror. As a Kryptonian, he could hear everything just evaporate and cease to exist. Try as he might, he couldn't even perceive atom particles of the people Gohan 'destroyed.'

Supergirl and Power Girl shared a similar discomfort, evident in their expressions as they witnessed the aftermath of Gohan's power.

"Superman! Calm down!" Batman's voice cut through the tension, commanding Clark's attention.

"You don't understand, Br—" Clark's words faltered, catching himself before revealing Batman's true identity. He turned to face Batman with a desperate gaze, silently pleading for understanding.

As Superman's fist connected with Gohan's cheek, a drop of blood splattered onto the ground, punctuating the silence that descended upon the scene. Gohan simply wiped the blood from his chin, his demeanor unwavering amidst the chaos and turmoil.
