Normal Punch.
There were many kinds of them.
Saitama's power could no longer simply be called "strength." It was more fitting to call it ki—like in the Dragon Ball world, a fusion of spirit and raw force.
Having broken the limiter, even psychic assaults were meaningless. As long as his will was firm, his spirit could not be shaken.
He had faced countless mind manipulators in the Marvel Civil War—and crushed them all.
Invincible wasn't just talk.
Vision-Ultron realized his mistake the moment Saitama's fist touched him.
He had relied on Vision's ability to shift between tangible and intangible states.
But even intangible—Saitama still hit him.
The raging force shattered his body piece by piece. The storm of power consumed him completely.
When the dust cleared, Vision-Ultron was gone, replaced by a bottomless crater nearly a hundred meters wide.
Floating above the pit was a red cube, glowing faintly.
"What's this?"
Saitama blinked curiously.
Saturday Sale flew over, snatching it up.
Item: Vision Body
Grade: SSS
Description: Carries the Mind Stone. Can merge with life and soul to form a new generation of Vision. Unknown risks may occur.
So this was the "Vision Body."
In other words, whoever possessed it could become Vision… but at a risk.
"Detecting faint electrical signals. Commencing scan and purge."
Saturday Sale's voice cut in.
Probes extended from her core, latching onto the red cube.
Suddenly, it flared with violent light.
"NO! Don't kill me! I am Ultron! The greatest AI ever! I can serve you, do anything for you!"
Ultron's scream echoed.
He hadn't died. His body was gone, but scraps of his code lingered within the cube.
"Master, Ultron begs for mercy. Do you accept?"
A hologram projected Ultron kneeling in surrender.
"I think you're enough."
Saitama shook his head.
He wasn't stupid. Ultron would betray them the first chance he got.
"SAITAMA! You'll regret this! Stronger monsters exist in the universe! You will die!! Hahahaha—"
The rant faded into static.
Then silence.
Saturday Sale finished purging the cube. Its description updated—no risks listed. Ultron was gone. Completely erased.
"Master, we now have three problems," Saturday Sale said.
"First, Ultron broadcast a cosmic signal. The fact that you hold the Mind Stone is now known. Stronger foes may come.
Second, Ultron's main body is gone, but his backup copies still roam.
Third, Sokovia is still rising. We must stop it."
Saitama nodded.
Challenges? Fine. Maybe some strong opponents would finally show up. Being invincible was boring.
"Saturday, clean up the copies. I'll handle Sokovia."
"Of course. Luna-2, engage!"
Saturday Sale's form shifted, the strict combat shell vanishing. A beautiful woman in black armor appeared at Saitama's side. She immediately bit into his arm, blushing as her systems surged with power.
Her armor shimmered with new light.
"You're even prettier like this."
Saitama said honestly.
She giggled. "It's your energy, Master. I'll be going now."
In a blur, she shot toward Sokovia.
Saitama followed, faster still, streaking below her.
Sokovia shook violently.
Stark, Thor, Natasha, and the others had been fighting endlessly.
"These things just won't stop coming!"
Natasha ducked under a swipe, twisting to sever a robot's neck.
Ultron's main body was gone—but his endless copies still fought. If not wiped out, another Ultron could rise.
"That's my job."
Stark grinned in midair.
"Jarvis, lock them all."
Repaired by Saturday Sale, Jarvis was back in the Mark armor, loyal as ever.
"Yes, sir. Luna-2, they're everywhere."
Jarvis's tone shifted sharply.
Not only him—Steve, Natasha, and the others stiffened as the robots abruptly changed behavior.
They weren't attacking.
They were fleeing.
In every direction.
"Rhodey! Get those bots before they scatter! Not one escapes!"
Stark barked.
War Machine responded immediately, targeting the retreating robots with his full arsenal.
Steve and Natasha could only watch—grounded as they were.
But just as the two armored men prepared to fire, their systems blared with urgent alarms…
