Chapter 27 - Chapter 27: Natasha and Barton

"OMG! Beautiful, if I win, I get to take you home? I guarantee you'll love my waterbed!"

"Hahaha! How about we compete, brother!"

"I bet my appetite's bigger than that bald guy's!"

The woman's words were like sparks dropped into gasoline, instantly igniting the crowd's excitement.

"Oh? Compete with you two?"

Saitama gave the two men a puzzled look.

"Please bring us twelve Mega Burgers. Oh, I forgot to introduce myself—Natasha. This is my colleague, Barton."

Natasha smiled confidently.

"Twelve Mega Burgers? Are these two here just to cause trouble?"

"I bet they can't finish twelve. Five at most, no more!"

"If they can't finish, they'll have to pay double! Don't just talk big!"

"Beauty! If you can't finish, I'll help you eat them! Hahaha!"

The crowd roared with excitement as the waiter quickly brought Barton twelve Mega Burgers—stacked higher than his head.

"Natasha… twelve is a bit much. Are you sure we need to arrest him? If not, we could just use force."

Barton grumbled, but one look from Natasha shut him up instantly.

"I'm Saitama. Let's start!"

Saitama introduced himself, grabbed a Mega Burger, and bit down.

Hawkeye Barton, wanting to impress Black Widow Natasha, also began devouring burgers like a starving wolf.

As someone who had broken his limiter, Saitama's appetite was enormous—he could eat a mushroom monster the size of a house.

Of course, against the cyborg core of Genos, Saitama would probably lose in eating capacity.

As time passed—

Phil, the reigning champion, collapsed after finishing eight and a half Mega Burgers, foam at his mouth.

Barton was on his seventh. Saitama… his eighth!

"…"

The entire burger joint fell silent. The customers and competitors who had been shouting moments ago stared at the two of them in shock.

"Are they monsters? These two can really eat!"

"They're already on their eighth, and that bald guy hasn't even slowed down!"

"My god! Are their stomachs bottomless pits?"

Natasha frowned, noticing that Barton was already struggling—only sheer willpower was keeping him shoving food into his mouth.

Ten minutes later—

"Natasha… how's he doing? He should be almost done, right? I… I can force down one more… hic…"

Barton's stomach was tight, sweat beading on his forehead. Even as a S.H.I.E.L.D. hero with a body far beyond a normal human's, ten burgers was about his limit. Any more and his stomach might burst.

"This might be a problem. Saitama's already on his eleventh. Barton, you're not going to lose to him, are you?"

"Eleventh?!"

Barton's face darkened. He swore he never wanted to eat another burger again, but for the mission, he kept going.

Five minutes later—

"Boss, another five! These burgers are really good!"

Saitama called out, ordering five more Mega Burgers.

Thud!

With a mouth still stuffed full of burger, Barton collapsed to the floor.

Natasha: "…"

It seemed she had miscalculated something…

Finishing the remaining five burgers with some reluctance, Saitama finally let out a long breath.

The burger joint was so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Everyone stared at Saitama in disbelief.

"That's about enough. So, boss, how many did I eat? The Burger King title should be mine, right? Haha!" Saitama said, patting his stomach and hiccuping.

"Con… congratulations! You ate twenty Mega Burgers, breaking our store record… You've earned the Burger King title! From now on, you can eat here for free anytime!"

The shop owner was stunned. It was the first time he'd seen someone eat twenty Mega Burgers.

[Ding! Congratulations, host Saitama, for completing the Burger King side quest. You will receive a special reward, distributed after all missions are complete.]

The system prompt rang out, and Saitama smiled in satisfaction.

Perfect!

These burgers were as good as the miso ramen back in the One Punch Man world. The best part? They were free now.

"Oh, right. I think I won that bet, Miss Natasha."

Scratching his bald head, Saitama looked over at Natasha.
