Though Zod himself didn't possess the means to resurrect the dead, a mother box did.
This artifact, created by the New Gods, possessed astonishing power, capable of reversing life and death by altering the interactions between biological particles.
In the original timeline, after Superman was killed by a neutered Doomsday—a creature Luthor created from Doomsday's original corpse—he was revived through the power of a mother box.
Although Flash wasn't present to recharge the mother box in this period, Diana, with her awakened bloodline, should be able to serve as a substitute.
Zod then used the same method to restore the other fallen Kryptonian warriors to their original states.
At this moment, they didn't look like corpses, but rather as if they were sleeping.
Similarly, their bodies were still instinctively absorbing solar radiation.
Therefore, there was no need to worry about decay; as long as there was sunlight, they could probably be preserved for tens of thousands of years without decomposing.
Throughout this entire process, Zod's divine sense was meticulously perceiving every ripple of the time law's fluctuations.
Zod's heart was instantly filled with pleasant surprise: "Time is indeed the most profound law. Although I can't comprehend it yet, as long as I can perceive it, there will always be a time when I can grasp it."
After all, not all laws in this world are so obscure; even a fellow like Hel has mastered the power of time.
And the time cloth could be used without limit, meaning he could constantly use it to perceive the time law.
At this moment, Fiora asked him with some surprise, "General, are you saying that Leto and the others still have a chance to come back to life?"
Even Martian Manhunter looked at Zod with a hint of disbelief, wanting to hear a definitive answer from him.
"That's right. Their bodies have been repaired, which is the foundation for their revival. We just need to find one more crucial item to make it happen!"
Upon hearing this, Fiora said with an excited expression, "General, what is that crucial item, and where is it? I'll immediately take people to find it and bring it back."
"There's no need to be so agitated. That thing is on Earth, and I will personally retrieve it later."
The involvement of Apokolips behind the mother box is too deep. The various factions on Earth can't control it, so he'll seize the opportunity to take them all.
"Fiora, you and your team are to immediately collect and organize the remnants of the Genesis Chamber!"
Upon hearing Zod's command, all the Kryptonian warriors left with excited expressions, understanding the meaning behind Zod's words.
At this point, Martian Manhunter walked over, looked at the time cloth in Zod's hand, and said,
"Mr. Zod, what is the origin of this cloth? It can achieve small-scale time reversal; it's truly incredible!"
When Zod first used this item, he had been carefully observing it.
Naturally, he could discern that the time cloth's repair wasn't about damaged objects being strangely re-adhered together.
Instead, it directly reversed the time that had flowed from them back to before they were damaged.
Such a method of controlling time appearing on an ordinary piece of cloth was truly unbelievable.
"Yes, it's quite incredible, but would you believe me if I told you it's merely a small toy created by some powerful beings to amuse children?"
In response to his exclamation, Zod said with a leisurely tone.
"?"
Martian Manhunter's first reaction was disbelief, but he then fell into contemplation.
After spending this time together, he had come to understand some of Zod's personality, so he didn't think Zod was joking with him.
"Mr. Zod, do those special beings you mentioned belong to our world?"
Because of the precedent of the tree of life, which came from another world, Martian Manhunter immediately had some conjectures.
"Your idea is correct. Those beings belong to another world, and this time cloth is indeed a product from another world!"
Hearing this, Martian Manhunter breathed a slight sigh of relief.
He then nodded and said, "So its name is the time cloth? Although the name is a bit strange, it matches its abilities very well."
However, he also had some doubts, so he asked again,
"Mr. Zod, if this item can reverse time, why didn't Mr. Leto and the others directly revive due to the time reversal?"
Hearing such a question, Zod naturally couldn't tell him that 'this is just how it's set up.'
After all, he was still a long way from even touching the threshold of the time law; how could he possibly figure out the underlying principle?
He could only say with a profound expression,
"Perhaps the being who created this item also believes that life is an inviolable miracle, and thus added some limitations to it."
"After all, if one could casually reverse and manipulate life and death, then no one would respect life, and might even casually trample upon it. This should not be the message he wants to convey to children!"
Martian Manhunter also nodded unconsciously upon hearing these words.
"Yes, life should not be desecrated."
Hearing that he believed him, Zod seemed to suddenly remember something and spoke again leisurely,
"Jonn, if I told you that there really is a person in this world who can truly reverse time and change the future outcome of events from the past, do you think he would be dangerous?"
As soon as these words were spoken, Martian Manhunter thought about it carefully and suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.
Then he asked curiously, "Mr. Zod, where is this person you speak of now?"
"He? He'll probably be born in about ten years!"
The person Zod was referring to was, of course, Flash, Barry Allen. He created the Speed Force and is the source of all Speed Force.
Although he hasn't been born yet, the Speed Force already exists, because this power has existed at any point in time—past, present, and future—since its inception.
Therefore, Flash's birth is inevitable and unstoppable, unless one's power is so immense that they can directly erase the concept of the Speed Force itself.
This is also a crucial reason why Flash can interfere with timelines through the Speed Force.
Thinking of this, Zod also suddenly realized there was another huge crisis: the Flashpoint Paradox caused by the future Flash.
If he were to reset the entire timeline, would the past timeline in which he exists still exist?
"It seems I'll have to find a way to acquire the Speed Force in the future. With his current strength, only through the Speed Force can he avoid the Speed Force's influence!"
Some of Zod's thoughts began to diverge, while Martian Manhunter fell into silence.
After a moment, he spoke again, "Mr. Zod, will this person be a threat to the world?"
"He will be a hero, resolving many crises and saving countless lives, but he will also trigger a cosmic-level catastrophe."
Hearing this, Jonn fell into a contradictory silence once more.
Seeing him like this, Zod couldn't help but pat his shoulder and say, "Don't worry, since I've already seen that future, I will find a way to resolve it. After all, I won't sit idly by and let myself and New Krypton be affected."
"Phew! Mr. Zod, I'm relieved to hear you say that. If there's anything I can do, please don't hesitate to command."
Feeling that Zod wasn't joking, Martian Manhunter also let out a long breath at this moment.
