"Blame my parents." Zack chuckled.
"Cosmic entities have parents?" Atomic Samurai asked with a raised eyebrow.
"Of course. What? You think I just appeared in the world like *pop* and there I am?" Zack asked. "Nah."
"Where exactly did you go?" Tareo asked curiously.
"To do my job." Zack answered.
"What exactly is your job?" Tank-Top Master asked. "Besides watching a lot of worlds."
"Good question. My job is to keep the many different worlds out there from crossing over each other to the best of my abilities." Zack explained.
"Crossing over?" Fubuki asked, not understanding what he meant.
"Ever see two shows have that one episode that crosses both of them into a special episode?" Zack asked.
"Sometimes." King answered with a stoic look while inwardly being geeky and thinking of all those special episodes from animes he'd seen.
"Think of it on a much larger scale." Zack said as he brought a few worlds up. "Each world has the potential to crossover with the other." he began as links began to pop up, with the same worlds appearing down the line. "Usually through science or magic or other such ways, worlds can sometimes interact with each other, creating new timelines and such for one or both of those worlds." he said as two worlds appeared together before a third one sprouted and created it's own link. "A part of my job is to see what happens if that new world is left alone, based on the actions of those living in it." Suddenly, that one world started having multiple worlds sprout from it and spread everywhere, clashing with other worlds and creating more worlds and timelines. "If the wrong worlds collide, it could spread to other worlds and create dangerous clusters that will affect more worlds out there.
"So it's like a cancer of sorts?" Bofor mused.
"Something like that." Zack shrugged. "Sometimes there are worlds that can co-exist and stay as just one new timeline. But I and many others keep a watch to stop it before it can get out of control."
"How do you do that?" Darkshine asked.
"We look into the worlds and see what could cause it, and with our powers cause minor manipulations to keep them from crossing over." Zack finished before making the worlds vanish.
"Hmm. Interesting." Blast said, though no one could hear him.
"Sounds like quite a daunting job." Bang said.
"You better believe it." Zack sighed before perking up. "Anyway, this is almost done. Then we get back to the fun stuff."
"Yeah. I want to see what happened to that one monster." Metal Bat said.
"There is only one thing left I can do." Genos said after the scene shifted to a close up of his face.
Scene shifts back to the street from earlier, then to a man shaped hole in a wall, the shapes on the ends of the arms matching the objects Men's Esthetician Man had.
"Never mind." Metal Bat snorted as a few laughed.
"Such a shame, even if he did turn into a monster." PPP lamented.
"I don't care how many times you come back to challenge me. But let me just say this." Saitama began before the scene shifted to a serious, and angered, Saitama glaring at the hole, his smoking fist still raised after punching the monster. "Don't you ever go around stealing people's french fries again! If you're gonna come at me, come at me straight." he warned as the scene shifted before he turned and walked off.
"All this because of one simple french fry." an old executive huffed while shaking his head.
'If I continue being a hero, this won't be the last time someone's out for revenge against me.' Saitama thought as the scene shifted a few times, showing him going through his day. First he tried to have a cat come to him, but it ran off. Then it showed much later in the day with him enjoying some cheap udon from another restaurant, then him walking alone towards him during the sunset. 'That is my fate. It can't be helped. I just need to change how I think. Right! I need to think positively. I just have to believe there will be people in this world who appreciate all the things that I do. I became a hero three years ago. I'm not saying I need fans, but it would be nice if someone noticed what I've been doing.'
"Well from the little we've already seen, you most definitely have gotten that." Sitch said with a smile, with a few others in the audience smiling or nodding as well.
"Thanks." Saitama said with a smile of his own before they all turned back to the screen.
"Oh yeah, there was that one guy who wanted to be my disciple." Saitama said before he continued walking.
"Yeah, and he's a crazy stalker who steals my french fries." Saitama grunted with a frown.
"My apologies, Master Saitama. I shall refrain from such actions in the future." said Genos. Saitama rubbed his temples while Zack grinned.
Scene shifts to Genos's clenched fist before shifting to him standing outside of Saitama's door.
'Investigation: Day 5. I have prepared myself for the worst.' he thought.
"Alright. Back to the main show!" Zack announced as his eyes shined, shifting the viewing back to just after he had left.
"About time." Tatsumaki huffed.
"Sensei!" Genos called out while standing straight. Nothing happened for a few moments before the door opened up. Scene shifts to Saitama sticking his head out and looking up at Genos with an irritated look.
"You really showed up. Uh..." Saitama said before pausing.
"It's Genos, Saitama-sensei." Genos introduced.
"Did we ever get his name before now?" an executive asked.
"If we did, I didn't catch it." another answered.
"Can you not call me sensei?" Saitama asked.
"Master!" Genos replied.
"Not Master either!" Saitama snapped as the scene changed to show Saitama's home building.
A lot of them chuckled at that.
Scene shifts to show two cups of tea on a small table.
"Go on home after your drink. I'm not looking for disciples." Saitama ordered as the scene shifts again, showing both of them sitting at the table in the middle of Saitama's home. "Wait. You're back in one piece?"
"Yes, my body is mostly mechanical. As long as there are parts, repairs are quick." Genos explained as the scene shifted to him.
"You're an odd one." Saitama said after the scene shifted a few times during their conversation.
"What kind of parts do you use, Master?"
"Don't use any."
"Then what about the skin-colored armor on your head?" Genos asked while pointing at Saitama's head.
"You act like you've never seen a bald person before." Child Emperor said.
"I have, but none of them were as young as Master Saitama." Genos explained, making Saitama frown.
"Yeah, that's my skin." Saitama answered before the scene shifted to Genos placing his chin in his fingers in thought.
"But that would mean you're bald, despite being so young." he said.
"SO I'M BALD! WHAT'S YOUR PROBLEM, HUH?!" Saitama snapped after the scene shifted to him.
"Wow. Haven't seen anyone snap like that except for Tornado." Metal Bat commented after watching that outburst.
"My problems? You are asking me to list each one?" Genos asked after the scene shifted to him.
"How did you come to that conclusion?" Drive Knight asked.
"No thanks, I'm good." Saitama quietly declined with a frown as the scene panned over to him.
"Actually, four years ago, when I was 15, I was still a real human being." Genos began after the scene shifted to him
"Did you hear what I just said?" Saitama asked after the scene shifted back to him, before shifting around at various angles in and out of the apartment.
"Although we had to pinch pennies, my family and I lived a peaceful and fairly happy life. But one day, a crazy cyborg went out of control and attacked our town."
That got everyone's attention as Genos continued.
"The insane cyborg...Most likely, a failed body modification generated an irregularity in his brain. He destroyed everything in sight. Parks, schools, buildings, my house. He even took my family's lives."
"Shit. That's rough." Metal Bat said with a sad frown.
"It must've been a massacre." Bang hummed, his eyes downcast.
"It was. As far as I know, I may be the only survivor of my hometown." Genos lamented.
"Miraculously I survived, but being only a weak 15-year-old, I was alone and at the end of my strength in a ruined town. That's when Doctor Kuseno happened to pass through."
'Kuseno? Where have I heard that name before?' Bofoi thought before it slipped his mind.
"Doctor Kuseno, a scientist for justice, was on a mission to stop the destruction caused by the rampaging cyborg. I asked Doctor Kuseno to perform body modification surgery on me. That's how I was reborn as a cyborg who fights for justice. I promised Doctor Kuseno that one day I would terminate the evil cyborg."
"An admirable goal." Amai Mask said with a small smile.
"You poor thing. To suffer such a tragedy at such a young age." Puri Puri Prisoner sniffled.
"And the Hero Association didn't exist four years ago, so there may not be any information to help find it." Child Emperor said with a sigh.
"Still doesn't mean we can't keep watch for it." Metal Bat said while gripping his weapon.
"Yeah." Darkshine nodded while cracking his knuckles. "If it's destroying towns, you can bet we'll stop it."
"I thank you for your supportive words." Genos said before his eyes started to glow. Even though they were mechanical, they could all feel the burning hatred coming from within them. "But should you see it, let me know. I wish to deal with that insane cyborg myself."
"If we find it, and should it try to attack, we will not hesitate to act." Bang stated.
"I'll just slice the limbs off and let you take care of the rest." Atomic Samurai said with a confident smirk.
"Maybe offering to help him find this mad cyborg would help us get him to join the Hero Association." an executive whispered to the other executives, only to get the stink eye from one of them.
"That's too much." they whispered back. After a moment of talking, they all looked back at the screen.
"I see-" Saitama began to say before Genos continued.
"It's been four years since that day. I'm now 19 and I've been wandering from town to town eliminating evil." he said as the scene continued to shift, with a close up of Saitama's face coming to view, his eyebrows twitching slightly.
"It's not over?" Atomic Samurai asked with a raised eyebrow.
"The number of monsters and criminal organizations I have destroyed are too many to count. But I have been unable to find any clues about the insane cyborg and have become increasingly frustrated and restless." Genos continued as the scene shifted to show the two of them, with Saitama's right leg twitching a lot under the table.
"He's not the only one getting frustrated." Fubuki commented with a frown.
"I find myself chasing a virtual image of that cyborg whenever I square off against my enemies. Then last week, when that mosquito monster appeared, I let my concentration slip. I was convinced I could not lose to anything but the rampaging cyborg, so I neglected to even analyze the data on my opponent and rushed to confront her."
"Not a very good idea." Drive Knight commented.
"Are you speaking faster?" King asked as Genos kept on talking.
"The result, as you know, was that an opponent with immense strength bested me. If you, Master Saitama, had not been in the area, I would have undoubtedly been destroyed. Master, you saved my life. My life that was once saved by Doctor Kuseno has now been saved again by you, Master Saitama. I feel the weight of that responsibility. I must not die before destroying that cyborg. And to do that, I must continue fighting evil as a righteous cyborg until he appears before me one day. I need to get stronger."
"Okay, I think we get the point now." Tank-Top Master grumbled as he covered his ears with his hands.
"Last week, when I saw your punch, I knew I had to study under you as your disciple. If only I could be as strong as you, Master Saitama!"
"Will you stop talking already?!" Tatsumaki yelled while Flashy Flash slowly reached his hand towards his sword.
"I have an old enemy to defeat, and the battle is not for me only. It's for my hometown, and for Doctor Kuseno too."
Scene shows Saitama twitching in place, tic marks appearing on his face.
"You may want to quit soon. Saitama looks ready to explode." Darkshine commented with a worried look.
"Yeah. Both of them." Watchdog Man added while looking at their Saitama, who looked like he was about to jump up and punch the screen.
"I realize I am still inexperienced. But right now, I need enormous power so I can eradicate the greatest of evils! Doctor Kuseno is-"
"ENOUGH, YOU IDIOT! SHORTEN THIS STUPID STORY TO 20 WORDS OR LESS!" Saitama bellowed after the scene shifted to his seriously pissed face.
The audience took a moment to recover from hearing that before they sighed in relief, glad that Genos's rambling ceased.
"You can put the bat down now." Bang chuckled to Metal Bat, who was looking ready to smash everything, veins sticking up on his veins and hands.
"He just wouldn't. Shut. Up." the younger hero grit out while Pig God took the cotton candy out of his ears before eating it.
"Why were you repeating yourself over and over?" Tareo asked their Genos after moving his hands away from his ears.
"I felt it was necessary to explain, to get my point across about the insane cyborg that Doctor Kuseno and I-"
"SHUT UP!" they all shouted, making the cyborg flinch.
"We sympathize with you, but please stop repeating yourself." Sitch huffed as the other executives gave Genos the stink eye.
"Is it over?" Zack asked while removing his headphones, music blasting through them.
"Couldn't you have skipped that? Or at least warned us?" Darkshine asked.
"I could've." Zack said with a smirk, making them all glare at him before looking back at the screen.
Scene shifts to a blue sky that was partly cloudy before panning down to a building in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by mountains and forest.
Some of the executive's eyes widened at the building, knowing what it was from their investigations.
"Mosquito Girl was defeated? With one punch, you say?" said a man in a black suit and glasses as the scene shifts to show a man in a room lit by a green computer screen. A chalkboard with notes and many books were placed about as well. "Well, she was merely a prototype, after all."
"Who's this guy?" Metal Bat asked.
"Whoever he is, he obviously knows about that monster Saitama defeated before." Flashy Flash stated.
Scene shifts to show the computer, which had pictures of Pig God, Watchdog Man, Superalloy Darkshine, and Metal Bat on it.
"Why does he have our pictures?" Darkshine asked. "Is he some fan or stalker?"
The screen then shows screenshots of the fight scene popping up.
"Why is he naked?" the man asked when the last shot came up, which was of Saitama after slapping Mosquito Girl.
"His fault." Zack answered while pointing a finger at Genos.
"Unknown." answered a voice that sounded like the first man's voice.
"Well, whatever. He'll make an excellent specimen." the man said with a smile as the scene shifted to him viewing the pictures. "We shall study his physiology. By force, if necessary."
"So this guy's gonna come after me?" Saitama asked with a blank look.
"It would seem so. And from the way this man speaks, he may be a scientist. Perhaps he even created that Mosquito Girl we all saw." Bofoi guessed.
"But who is he?" Fubuki asked. Others wondered that as well, their focus on the screen and not on Zombieman's glaring eyes.
Scene shifts to a figure wearing a shirt that had the number 28 on it. Their face was hidden in shadows and they were holding some papers in their right hand.
"Send a messenger and invite him here, to our 'House of Evolution.'" the man in the black suit ordered as the scene shifted back to him before he smiled.
"House of Evolution? The heck is that?" Tatsumaki asked with a raised eyebrow.
"You brought that name up before." Atomic Samurai said while looking at Zack. "What exactly are they?"
"The longer explanation will come soon. Long story short? They're a threat." Zack answered. "Just wait for it."
Scene shifts back to the two cups of tea in Saitama's home.
"Master, here's the short version: Please teach me the way to become strong like you." Genos asked after the scene shifted to his face. It then shifted to Saitama's serious face.
"Genos."
"Yes!" Genos answered as the scene shifted to the two of them.
"How old are you?"
"19."
"So young. I'm sure you'll surpass me in no time." said Saitama.
"Do you mean that?" Genos asked at the same time his future self did.
"That would be unlikely for cyborgs such as you and I." Drive Knight said. "We can only be as powerful as the weaponry installed in us can make us. Strength training would not work."
"Huh. That does make sense." Saitama said while crossing his arms and looking up in thought. "And I'm no scientist, so I can't add anything to your body like that."
Though it was very small, some could see the sadness in Genos's eyes at that. And Saitama was one of them.
"W-Well, let's just keep watching. If there's anything the future me can teach you, then all you'll have to do is watch and see for yourself." he quickly said. That got Genos's attention before he turned back to the screen, his notebook ready to record everything and anything useful.
"I will do as you say, Master Saitama!" Genos acknowledged, making the bald hero sigh.
Scene shifts to Saitama
"I'm 25 now, but I was 22 when I started training in the summer." Saitama explained, the scene shifting to Genos gasping in shock at the amount of time it took him to become that powerful. "Sure, I'll teach you." Saitama decided before the scene shifted to a close up of Saitama's hardened expression. "But it won't be easy. Can you handle it?" Scene shifts to Genos, who said nothing for a moment.
"Yes, Sir!" Genos agreed with determination.
"Well, looks like my future self just got a disciple." Saitama sighed out. "Let's hope I know what I'm doing."
Scene suddenly shifts to a close up of Genos's eyes looking off before the scene shifts to Genos crouching and glaring at Saitama's front door.
"High-speed object approaching! It is here!" Genos informed Saitama.
Scene shifts to Saitama staring at Genos in confusion before the ceiling above him came down, a mantis-like monster with it's brain visible inside a dome coming down with it.
"AH! YOU'RE UNDER ATTACK!" Tareo shrieked.
"Hey! My ceiling!" Saitama yelled in shock and anger.
"Think it's from the House of Evolution?" Atomic Samurai asked with a smirk, knowing that the monster was toast.
Scene shifts to the monster laughing.
"Greetings! I am-huh?" the monster began before looking confused. Scene then shifts to a slow-motion shot of Saitama punching the monster's head. It's eyes popped out, it's dome broke, it's brain flew out, and the rest of it had green blood spraying everywhere.
"Pay for my ceiling!" Saitama demanded the head now splattered on the wall, it's body twitching as green blood spewed out of it's neck like a geyser.
"HA! That was short!" Metal Bat laughed.
"Though now you can't get any money from it since it's dead." an executive joked.
"Oh...crap." Saitama said in realization. "Well, I'll just stop it before it smashes my ceiling in the future then."
Scene then shifts to two monsters down on the street close to Saitama's home.
"So..." the slug monster began, getting the frog monster's attention. "It seems our advance agent, Kamakyuri, is down. I can't sense him with my telepathy." it said as the scene shifted again, showing the front of the two monsters.
"Huh? Wait a sec! Wasn't he one of our stronger guys?!" the frog monster asked in shock.
"If he was what they consider strong, then the rest much be a bunch of weaklings." Tornado said before turning her nose up. "You wouldn't need anyone from Class-S to handle them. Any idiot from the weaker classes could do it."
"Careful Tornado. That creature was killed before we could see it in combat. It's skills could've posed quite a threat to anyone else." Bang warned.
"Hmph. I could've killed it and those two other monsters in my sleep." she boasted.
Scene shifts to Genos looking behind him.
"There are two more outside." he muttered before moving. "Master, leave them to me!" he yelled as the scene shifted, showing him jumping off the balcony. Scene shifts to him landing on the sidewalk, ready to take on the two other monsters. His determined look changes to one of surprise before the scene shifts again, showing Saitama standing over the two monsters, their legs sticking out of the ground.
"Don't bust people's ceilings!" he growled.
The audience laughed at the state the monsters were now in.
"Aren't you supposed to kill the monsters before you bury them?" Watchdog Man asked, a ghost of smile coming to his lips.
"Are they dead?" Darkshine asked after calming down from chuckling at the sight.
"Oh, never mind." Genos said as the camera zoomed out ot show him staring at the scene.
"Can't you guys just come through the door?" Saitama asked after the scene shifted to just him and monsters.
"I don't think monsters are polite enough to do that." Tareo said, making a few others laugh.
Scene shifts to a pair of clawed hands reaching out from under the sidewalk before grabbing Saitama by the ankles and dragging him up to his head in the earth, a surprised look on his blank face.
"W-What happened?!" Sekingar gaped in shock.
"I got buried." Saitama answered.
"I think karma must've hit you for what you did to those other monsters." Tank-Top Master said in a half-joking, half-serious tone.
"Master!" Genos shouted after the scene shifted to him.
"No, I'm fine." Saitama said, stopping Genos when he began to run towards him. Scene then shifts to Saitama simply relaxing in the hole. "I kinda feel like...a young bamboo shoot."
"At this point, I'm not surprised you don't care about something like this happening to you." Child Emperor said with a bored smile.
"Elevated energy levels detected." came a robotic voice after the scene shifted to Genos. He turns after an explosion happens behind him. Scene shifts to a close up of his wide eyes before shifting again to the source in the dust cloud. It was a giant cyborg that was on all fours, the shape resembling a gorilla, and covered in armor.
"A cyborg?" he asks as he gazes at the cold blue shining eyes coming out of the monster's helmet. 'Could it be...?'
Genos glared hard as he stood up out of his seat.
"Is that the cyborg you've been searching for?" Bang asked.
"...no." Genos said after observing it for a moment and sitting down.
"That's a shame. You could've dealt with it then and there." Tank-Top Master said.
"You are not the target." the cyborg said to Genos after the scene shifted to it. Scene then shifts to Saitama moving his head around.
"What's going on? I can't see." he complained as he tried to look behind himself.
"Out of the way!" the enemy cyborg ordered after the scene shifted to it's eyes glowing brighter. Scene shifts around to show it lunging at Genos and punching at him. Genos jumps, causing the cyborg to smash the ground before Genos used his arm thrusters to spin and kick the cyborg, staggering it and launching himself away. He skid on the ground before sprinting towards it while the enemy cyborg tried to backhand Genos away. Genos blocked it with both arms, the impact of the strike causing a small shockwave in their immediate area.
"CYBORG FIGHT!" Tareo cried out in excitement.
"CYBORG FIGHT!" Zack yelled as well.
"I have a few questions for you." Genos said with a glare after the scene shifted to him before it shifted to the cyborg staring down with it's cold eyes. The scene shifted back to Saitama's head as thundering footsteps approached, a shadow falling over him. The scene shifted and panned up to a humanoid lion monster grinning down and laughing at Saitama.
"You appear to be in what they call a 'tight spot.' Magnificent work, Ground Dragon." it said as the scene shifted to a bit away, a mole monster coming out and the scene shifting to a close up of the monster, the words 'Ground Dragon' on it's chest.
"It complicate things if they put up a fight." the mole monster said.
"How many of these things did that guy send?" Darkshine asked.
"I don't know, but I'm starting to see a pattern." Bofoi said. "All of them have been some kind of animal or bug."
"Yeah." King said as he started counting them off while ticking his fingers. "A mosquito, a mantis, a frog, a slug, a lion, a mole, and I think the cyborg is a gorilla."
"Maybe that guy that was spying on me likes animals?" Saitama guessed.
"Master!" Genos shouted after the scene shifted to him looking back at Saitama in worry.
"You dare look away?" came the enemy cyborg's voice as the scene shifted to Genos looking back towards him. Scene then shifts to the cyborg running towards him on all fours. "QUITE COURAGEOUS!" it roared as it swung it's right arm at Genos. Scene shifts as Genos not only dodges it, but his hand grinds against it as he pushes himself forward and blasts the cyborg with his left hand point-blank, sending an explosion down the street.
"You really should keep your focus on your current enemy." Drive Knight said to their Genos.
"Indeed. A break in concentration can mean the difference between victory and defeat." Bang added. "And in the hero business, defeat can lead to death."
"I shall keep that in mind." Genos said as he wrote their words down in his notebook.
Scene shifts to show Genos staring into the blaze before Armored Gorilla leaps out of it towards him. Genos leaps out of the way as Armored Gorilla smashes into the street, tearing it up and sending debris everywhere while Genos lands safely away. Scene shifts to Genos glaring before it shifts to Armored Gorilla rising out of the smoking crater.
"I am the pinnacle of the House of Evolution's science. I am Armored Gorilla. Your attacks have no effect.
"The 'House of Evolution?' What does it want with my Master?" Genos demanded after the scene shifted to him.
"It is none of your business. And it is our rule that any who oppose us be eliminated without fail." Armored Gorilla answered as he slowly approached Genos before towering over him, arms raised above his head. "I must destroy you."
The scene shifts to Genos as he looks back towards Saitama before focusing on Armored Gorilla.
"Smart move, keeping your focus on one target." said Drive Knight.
"Yeah. Especially since Saitama can handle himself." Atomic Samurai added.
"Oh yeah! What is happening to Mr. Saitama?!" Tareo asked after remembering that he was stuck in the ground and that lion monster came out of nowhere with the mole monster.
Scene shifts to Saitama giving the Beast King a bored look.
"Hey, jerk-off! What's with that stupid look?" Beast King asked after the scene shifted to a close up of his face, his red eyes twitching in anger. He then gasps in shock before the scene shifts back to Saitama, who was giving out a loud yawn. The scene then shifts to show Saitama and the two monsters.
"Being underground keeps you cool, but at the same time, it's nice and warm." Saitama explained.
"It's true." Zombieman said before blinking and groaning when he realized he let that slip.
"How would you know?" Tornado asked before giving him a smile. "You try it before?"
"...yes." he muttered, causing her and a few other heroes to laugh. "Oh shut up. It's their fault." he grunted while pointing his thumb at the executives.
"What are you talking...wait." Sitch began before turning to his fellow executives. "You didn't."
"Didn't what?" Watchdog Man asked.
"They told me about a meeting spot for some dangerous monsters and had me hide in the ground to wait for them." Zombieman began, a vein showing up on his forehead.
"So why are you so angry about-"
"It was a lie." Zombieman growled, interrupting Pig God. "The whole park was rented out by a sponsor for the Hero Association so he could give his kid a private birthday party. And the child was a huge fan of mine."
"Let me guess. The sponsor paid the Hero Association a big bonus or something to have you show?" Child Emperor deadpanned.
"Yeah. I put the pieces together when I heard them singing 'Happy Birthday' and saying obvious hints about my arrival." Zombieman finished before giving the executives the stink eye. Some of them were sweating, while others, like Sitch, merely facepalmed in embarrassment.
"Heroes are to destroy monsters, not be rented out as clowns to entertain at birthday parties." Amai Mask reminded them while glaring at the executives. "We're going to have a long talk about this when we all return."
"Hmph. The great 'heroes' of the Hero Association. What a joke." Sonic scoffed.
"Alright alright. Settle down." Zack spoke up. "Address the greed and idiocy of the executives later."
"Hey!" one of them shouted, but was ignored as they looked at the screen.
"I'm sleepy. Can you get lost?" Saitama asked after the scene shifted to a close up of the Beast King, his face twitching in anger and veins sticking up on his face.
"I don't think he like that." Tareo commented, feeling uneasy about the angry look the monster had.
Scene zooms out as the Beast King started to laugh.
"I see I need to teach you your place. Listen up!" he said before the scene shifts, with two of the Beast King's clawed fingers an inch away from Saitama's eyes. "I'm gonna slice your eyes out with there! Then we'll see if you're such a smartass!"
"He's gonna need bigger claws than that." Metal Bat said with a light laugh.
"The Beast King never lets anyone off easy." the monster stated after the scene shifted, showing him down on all fours and at eye level with Saitama. He held that position even as Saitama simply walked up and out of the ground, startling Ground Dragon.
"Well, enough fooling around." Saitama said after the scene shifted, showing him looking down on a sweating Ground Dragon and slightly shaken Beast King. Scene zooms in on Saitama, a slightly more defined look than usual. "If you wanna apologize, now's your chance." Scene shifts to the two monsters. "You guys smashed my ceiling!" he said as the Beast King slowly looked at Saitama. Scene then shifts as the Beast King stands up.
"Well is that so?" the Beast King asked.
"How long do you think it'll take for Saitama to waste this guy?" an executive asked the others.
"Maybe...30 seconds before he gets tired of the fighting?" another answered.
Scene then shifts to a close up of the Beast King grinning at Saitama.
"Then behold the true power of the Beast-"
"Aww man." Saitama suddenly said, making the Beast King give him a confused look.
"What? Tired of the same 'I'll show you the ultimate blah blah' speech?" Pig God asked.
"I don't know what's wrong, though I am tired of hearing that over and over from all these monsters." Saitama answered.
"Who isn't sick of it?" Tornado asked.
"I got dirt in my special place." Saitama complained as the scene shifted, showing Saitama messing with his belt buckle while the Beast King just stared.
"Really?" Fubuki asked in a disbelieving tone while rubbing her temples.
"So that is a special place." Genos muttered while writing it down in his notebook.
"Hey, are you listening?" the Beast King snapped.
"Let me just shake this out." Saitama said as the scene shifted to Ground Dragon still looking on edge before going back to Saitama shaking his belt buckle free of dirt.
"You done yet?" the Beast King asked.
"One sec." Saitama answered as he brushed the last bits of dirt out before righting his belt buckle and looking up at the monster. "I'm done."
"What the fuck?" Metal Bat asked with a confused look.
"That was...interesting." was all Bang could say.
"The monster actually waited?" Tareo asked in surprise.
"Well at least it shows he's polite." Puri Puri Prisoner said.
Tank-Top Master opened his mouth before closing it, unable to say anything to that.
Scene shifts to a menacing looking Beast King.
"Then once again, prepare to witness the true power of the almighty Beast King!" the Beast King declared. Scene shifts to his right hand as the claws extend. "LION SLASH!" He swings his arm at Saitama, who casually leans out of the way. The attack keeps going and hits the empty little building behind, slicing it to pieces.
"Hmm. Nice clean cuts." Atomic Samurai observed with an interested smirk. "If this creature looks fun, I may just fight it myself."
Scene shifts and follows the Beast King and Saitama, one slashing and the other easily dodging. Scene then shifts to the slug monster on his hands and knees and out of the hole, one hand holding his head.
"Huh. Guess those two are alive." Child Emperor said after biting into his lollipop.
"You okay, Frog Man-"
"OUTTA MY WAY, PISSANTS!" the Beast King yelled as he sliced them and the ground to pieces.
"Spoke too soon." Child Emperor muttered with a flat look while a few heroes gave light chuckles.
"Such is the law of the jungle!" Beast King laughed after the scene shifted to the Beast King's face as he moved and slashed at Saitama before it shifted to Saitama, who just stared up at him. "And you're next!"
"That's what he thinks." Zombieman said with a small smile.
Scene shifts to the Beast King's upper body bulking up, tearing off all the clothing and accessories from the waist up.
"WAIT! DON'T KILL HIM YET!" Ground Dragon yelled in a panic after the scene shifted to him.
"LION SLASH: METEOR POWER SHOWER!" Beast King roared as the next scenes shifted around, showing the Beast King attacking with much more speed and ferocity, roaring throughout it all while Saitama easily dodged every swing. Suddenly, Saitama rushes forward, fist cocked back.
"And here comes the punch." Tank-Top Master said in slight anticipation.
Scene shifts to a close up of Saitama before shifting to a roaring Beast King.
"Consecutive...Normal Punches."
Scene then shows four of Saitama's right fists before shifting to the Beast King dying, it's body broken into pieces from the waist up as Saitama pulled his fist back.
"Aaaaand dead." Darkshine commented.
"Consecutive normal punches?" an executive asked. "What does that mean?"
"It's just what I said. A normal punch." Saitama answered.
"But why do you say normal?" the same executive asked.
"Because that's what it was. All the punches we've seen me thrown are all normal." Saitama explained.
"Hold on." Bang suddenly said while raising a hand. "If all that we've seen so far is what you consider normal, then what kind of punch do you throw when you become serious?"
"A serious punch." was Saitama's simple answer.
Everyone just looked at him before they started whispering to each other.
"I'm actually a little scared to see what a serious punch is."
"If normal punches can defeat Dragon level threats with ease, I don't blame you."
"Still, you can't help but feel a little curious as to what it would be."
"Too true."
"What's with all of you? It's just a punch." Saitama said with a frown.
"It's not a...never mind." Sekingar said before they turned back to the screen.
Scene shifts to Ground Dragon staring before it shifted to Saitama landing on his feet at the same time that the Beast King's legs fell to the ground, bits and pieces of him raining down. Scene then shifts to Saitama looking at his handiwork for a moment before casting a dark look at Ground Dragon.
"He's dead." Metal Bat said with a smirk.
Scene shifts to Ground Dragon seizing up and grunting in terror, turning blue before it shifts again, showing him diving underground.
"Is it wrong that I actually feel a little sorry for Ground Dragon?" Tareo asked.
"In this situation?...no." Bofoi answered.
"N-No one told me he'd be that strong!" Ground Dragon said to himself after the scene shifted to him digging as fast as he could down. Scene then shifts to his point of view as he kept on digging. "It's best to retreat now and regroup!" he decided, only to suddenly come face-to-face with Saitama, who was giving him a dead smile.
"Fooound you~"
"AAH!"
"HOLY SHIT!"
"THE FUCK?!"
A lot of the audience jumped and screamed in terror at seeing Saitama's face suddenly show up like that.
"That...That's gonna give me nightmares." Metal Bat admitted, visibly shaken up.
"You and me both." Darkshine added while Bofoi wiped the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief.
"That is terrifying!" Puri Puri Prisoner whimpered before looking at Tank-Top Master, who was glaring at him after Prisoner jumped into his arms in fright. "Oh, hello." he said before Tank-Top Master dropped him to the floor.
Tareo was hiding his face behind his book, his entire body quivering in fear.
"Make it go away." he whimpered.
"Tch. You guys are pathetic." Tornado scoffed, one of the few to keep her cool. Her sister, however, was not one of them if the way she suddenly looked pale said anything.
"Oh come on. It's just my face. It's not scary." Saitama complained.
"Yes it is." Zack said from where he was hiding inside his own food bucket.
"NOOO! IMPOSSIBLE!" Ground Dragon shrieked in terror. Scene then shifts to Ground Dragon's corpse flying out of the street before Saitama calmly climbed back up the surface. He then looks around at area around himself. Scene then shifts a few times, show bits and pieces of destruction here and there, with Genos standing and holding his hand up towards something.
"Answer the question or be eliminated. Your choice." he threatened as the scene shifted to his hand glowing and ready to fire at a moment's notice.
"It is you who will be eliminated, you blithering fool. I am the third most powerful fighter in the House of Evolution." Armored Gorilla boasted from where he sat. His helmet and limbs were gone, his body was thrashed and smoking, and he was completely defenseless.
"Guess you won." Watchdog Man stated while scratching his ear's costume with his leg.
"It would seem so." Genos responded.
Scene zoomed back a little as Armored Gorilla kept speaking.
"At your power level, you will never beat the Beast King, the second most powerful fighter. You will be destroyed." he stated as Saitama approached.
"Is this who you mean?" Saitama asked after the scene shifted, showing Saitama holding one of the Beast King's eyeballs between his fingers. Scene pans over to Genos glaring at Armored Gorilla.
"Apparently so." Genos said.
Scene shifts to Armored Gorilla glaring up at Genos in defiance.
"Hey, look! I'm sorry! I'll tell you everything, just don't kill me!" he begged after losing his composure.
"Pfft! Wimp!" Metal Bat laughed.
"He's like a kid that follows a bully around. Tough when the bully is there, but a wimp when the bully gets his ass kicked." Tank-Top Master explained with a smirk.
"Hmm." Bang hummed while fiddling with his mustache.
"Something on your mind, Silverfang?" Atomic Samurai asked after noticing the elder hero's look.
"Armored Gorilla said that he and the Beast King were the third and second most powerful fighters." Bang answered.
"You're wonder who the strongest is?" Flashy Flash asked, though he knew it was the right question.
"And why they didn't send whomever it is after Saitama." Bang added.
"Perhaps those answers will come as we watch." said Amai Mask. "With Armored Gorilla incapacitated and all the other monsters dead, they may very well send the strongest fighter."
"If they do, I hope he's stronger than the Beast King." Saitama said, hoping to have a real fight.
"Hey, what happened to your cool robot voice?" Saitama asked as the scene shifted, showing a large blood splatter on the side of the building.
"S-Sorry. I was just trying to sound cool." Armored Gorilla admitted.
"It really was." Tareo admitted while a few of them laughed.
"So we have a Dragon level threat, a giant city-sized monster, a swarm of mosquitoes, and the House of Evolution as major threats appearing in the future." Sitch listed off from his notes.
"Let's not forget the Subterranean invasion." Sekingar reminded him, making him quickly jot it down.
"Most of them looked boring. If anyone else wants to fight them, I won't mind." said Saitama.
Scene shifts to a few scenes of a laboratory, with a large amount of people running around and talking.
"What do you mean?"
"The hit team wiped out?"
"How did this happen?"
"Wait. Don't jump to conclusions yet."
"It may be a mistake."
"Verify the report immediately!"
"Right away."
"Be careful!"
"It seems that the House of Evolution is frazzled from their strike team being decimated." Bofoi observed.
"These guys aren't much better." Tornado scoffed while gesturing to the executives. "Any of the heroes go down and you all start panicking like the world's coming to an end."
"Well it is worrisome when our heroes get defeated." an executive said in defense.
"Then send a more competent hero next time. Or just tell me and I'll take care of it." Tornado said before turning back to the screen.
Scene shifts to the man in the suit walking in and turning to all the others.
"What's all the commotion?" he demanded. Scene shifts to all the workers stopping before the scene shifts again, showing identical copies of the man staring back, but with their hair hanging over the opposite eye.
"What in the world?" Sitch gaped in shock at the sight.
"Why are there so many of him?" Darkshine wondered.
"Maybe they're twins?" Saitama asked before holding his chin in thought. "No, wait. That's only for two. What would the word be for all of them?...Forget it. I can't think of it."
"Perhaps the answer will come later?" Bang guessed.
"If so, can it wait for a moment?" Metal Bat asked as he stood up and stretched. "My legs are starting to fall asleep."
"Yeah, and I need to use the bathroom." Tareo spoke up.
"Then I'll keep this paused until you're all ready, so use the bathroom while you can." Zack said to them all.
