Chapter 398: I Succeeded!
Mob's thirst for stronger power was unprecedented in his life. Whether losing control or falling into darkness, he wanted to genuinely... kill the person before him!
This teenager, who harbored great kindness, had true malice in his heart at this moment—the absolute evil of wanting to slaughter another living being.
Sizzle!
The Spirit World space, consisting only of black and white colors, twisted. The surrounding buildings and clouds in the sky were completely twisted into utterly unrecognizable shapes.
Including Mob's own 'Divine Body' constructed by unmatched psychokinesis, which was also completely twisted.
In the entire twisted world, only one thing still maintained its original appearance.
Or rather, only one [Individual] remained.
The bald man wearing a yellow crude tight suit, seemingly unaware, let the Spirit World Evil Lord hold him in his palm, let the twisted space constantly squeeze his body, let the collapsing Spirit World city crash onto his body.
Saitama just quietly watched this black human figure who seemed to hate him thoroughly.
He didn't know the opponent, nor had he ever seen this type of 'monster.'
Called a monster, but lacking that special smell monsters usually had.
But definitely not human either.
"What... are you?"
Saitama asked calmly. He didn't get angry because the opponent attacked him. In fact, the emotion of [Anger] hadn't appeared in Saitama's body for a long time.
So long that he had begun to forget the existence of that emotion.
Saitama knew he was actually influenced a lot by that invisible supermarket. He probably lost quite a few emotions. Therefore, he hoped to ask clearly at this moment why the opponent hated him.
Unlike that green-haired brat, this guy before him probably hated him to the point of wishing to kill him. That was hatred.
Saitama spread his hands. Mob only felt an unmatched force appear. In the next moment, the psychokinesis in his palm shattered.
That terrifying psychokinesis capable of crushing an entire city into a pellet was cracked just by the opponent propping his hands open.
This power...
Mob became more convinced in his heart. That guy indeed didn't lie to him. That wasn't an illusion. That was the future seen by combining that guy's ability with his own.
The person before him undoubtedly possessed the power to destroy the world.
It was true unmatched violence that neither he nor anyone else could stop.
Having such power, why would it turn into that situation...
Mob once feared his own power, believing overly strong power would only bring misfortune. Now he shuddered even more for Saitama's power.
The space under Saitama's feet was empty. Having no foothold, he began to fall. Saitama wanted to grab something with his hands, but with just a thought from Mob, everything was crumbling.
Saitama seemed to fall into a black hole, sinking infinitely.
Mob watched Saitama being thrown into the Spirit World vortex and sinking constantly, without any relaxation. Instead, he pressed down with both hands.
"Sink here forever."
The pitch-black space began to overlap. The depression in the Spirit World was being repaired. To bury Saitama, Mob didn't hesitate to shrink the entire Spirit World as the price, folding the Spirit World layer by layer.
That was no longer a simple spatial wall, but with layers of spatial barriers superimposed, it was almost equivalent to completely isolating into two worlds. Given enough time, this barrier would be enough to become a new dimensional crystal wall, eventually making the Spirit World and the void where Saitama was completely different dimensions.
Saitama covered his nose. The air suddenly disappeared gradually, and gravity dropped to an extremely low level. Pitch-black all around, he began to see nothing.
Although Saitama still didn't understand why the opponent hated him, he didn't want to stay in this kind of place anymore. So, he raised his right hand, punching upwards.
"Who exactly are you!"
Bang!
Like a blowout, the energy of [Spirit] sprayed like a flood and hurricane for the first time. The Spirit World ground just folded up was pierced through in an instant.
That force didn't stop. With a bang, sunlight from outside the world was revealed. Saitama punched through the entire Spirit World from the bottom of the folded Spirit World, revealing the real world once again.
Mob, who just wanted to relax a bit, was immediately alerted by his spiritual sense. That trembling sensation rising from the tailbone segment by segment was a feeling he had never experienced before.
He looked back in horror, just seeing the bald man raising a fist and jumping up from underground.
"Ugh!"
[Cloud Lark] grunted. The air suddenly rushing in, impacting along with the energy storm of the Spirit World, almost twisted his facial features. He could no longer breathe in this level of impact.
Kaito Shirogane's hair scattered. The [Cocoon of Greed] on his body surface was almost completely dispersed by the shockwave of this punch. The lean flesh on his face trembled constantly, making his handsome face almost twist into a monster.
But Kaito was unaware and unconcerned. His pupils trembled constantly, even the [All-Seeing Eyes of God] on his forehead opened.
He wanted to see clearly. He wanted to see the true face of that punch!
Thump thump thump thump!
Kaito's heartbeats connected into one piece. Under the extreme state of opening the [Eighth Turn of Setsuna], he prepared to activate [Transcendent Helix] again, although the danger was extremely high due to overly frequent use of this talent.
But if he could see the secret of Saitama's power clearly, Kaito didn't care at all.
Pfft!
Blood sprayed from Kaito's nose and mouth. His agitated hair didn't spread out or start to grow.
Damn it, spiral for me!
Facing the terrifying energy torrent, Kaito wanted to watch the battle between these two at close range.
Sizzle!
The high-speed beating heart made the [Thunder Emperor's Heart] overload. Intense thunder power burst from Kaito's body. Amidst thunder explosions, Kaito finally passed through the shockwave of the Spirit World shattering.
Trembling Mob happened to sense this newly appearing power. His eyes still looked at Saitama, but his spiritual perception unconsciously swept over Kaito.
Suddenly, his figure paused. Kaito, not in the [Transcendent Helix] state, looked so familiar in his eyes.
"It's you..."
Roar!
He suddenly made some sound, but because spiritual energy began to scream, that sound couldn't be received by Kaito's eardrums at all before exploding Kaito's eardrums with a bang.
Kaito's mind went blank. Senses became chaotic instantly; the brain was injured.
Saitama turned his head at this time, looking at this scene in surprise. He didn't understand why this guy, who clearly didn't have much malice towards humans, suddenly attacked the weak Mercenary Tao.
But no matter what, Mercenary Tao was a hero who saved quite a few people. Saitama lowered his head. Withdrawing a fist to his waist, he punched towards that huge black figure.
In a small house in Z-City, the long-haired [Fate Eternal] suddenly threw down the old game console in his hand, pushed open the window, and laughed loudly:
"Ha, I succeeded!"
