Flame Blade Kick!
Boom!
The fiercely burning flames instantly engulfed King's figure, but Hellfire Flame felt as if he had kicked a steel plate.
"Tsk, tsk. We're old acquaintances, yet you're still so heartless."
King brushed the flames off his body nonchalantly, looking at the two with a smile on his face.
"Who exactly are you?"
Hellfire Flame and Gale Wind were extremely vigilant. Being able to approach them without a sound was something no ordinary person could achieve.
"What? Has it only been this long, and you don't recognize me anymore?"
Swish... Swish...
Countless bone spikes surged out from within King's body, and the eyes of Gale Wind and Hellfire Flame were filled with shock.
"You are King?"
"You really are lucky to be alive. I recall that both the Hero Association and Neo Heroes are currently hunting you down, right?"
"I have things to ask you two."
King didn't care about their mocking tone. Since these two were related to the Heavenly Ninja Party, they must know the whereabouts of Empty Void.
Actually, there was no need to think about it. Empty Void was definitely a God's agent, so he had to finish him off before Blast could, and fuse with the Divine Power.
"We have nothing to say about that. You'd better hurry up and run for your life." Hellfire Flame licked his lips with a wicked grin.
"Then I'm afraid you won't be able to leave today."
"Is that so? You are truly impolite in front of the senior who led you onto the path of the Monster."
Gale Wind and Hellfire Flame exchanged a glance and both entered Monsterization, their strength skyrocketing.
"I originally wanted to recruit you into the Heavenly Ninja Party, but now I see there's no need."
Bang, bang, bang!
Their figures were as fast as lightning, and countless attacks landed on King's body.
'This guy's defense is actually this tough!'
Gale Wind was the first to notice that something was wrong. Their attacks hadn't even broken through King's defense.
Ultimate move! Fire Style: Scattering Flash Slash!
Several slashes wreathed in flames engulfed King's figure, explosions rang out, and the surrounding trees collapsed one after another.
"Finished him off! What a nuisance!"
Swish!
Just as Hellfire Flame finished speaking, a bone tail pierced through his chest, and bright red blood dripped down continuously.
"This... how is this possible?"
Hellfire Flame's face was filled with terror, he could clearly feel the power inside him draining away.
"No, this guy is too terrifying, run!"
Gale Wind felt a wave of killing intent wash over him, and he felt as if he had fallen into an ice cellar. By the time he realized he wanted to escape, he found that his body was already unable to move.
"Alright, now we can have a proper talk."
King's devil-like smile caused despair to appear on the faces of Gale Wind and Hellfire Flame.

In an abandoned mine, Flashy Flash stood at the highest point, looking at Speed-o'-Sound Sonic before him with calm eyes.
"What a boring duel challenge."
"I have waited too long for this duel."
As soon as Sonic finished speaking, he drew his sword and charged out instantly.
Ten Shadows Burial!
"It's been so long, it seems you have been training well." Flashy Flash was slightly surprised by Sonic's strength, but to him, it was still too weak.
Bang, bang, bang!
All of Sonic's attacks were easily blocked, and slashes sealed off all the space around him.
Explosive Shuriken!
Boom!
The explosion kicked up countless dust, and Sonic took the opportunity to disengage from the battlefield.
"You're still the same as before." Sonic's expression turned serious.
At this moment, Flashy Flash drew his blade, preparing to unleash his ultimate technique.
"Damn Sonic, I only told you to lure him out, who told you to act on your own?"
"After all, they are from the same class, he probably wanted to settle it himself."
"Don't look down on us. That One is about to awaken, and the credit for killing Flashy Flash will naturally be ours."
Figures appeared one after another, they were members of the Ninja Village's Heavenly Ninja Party.
"What a noisy bunch. How about we join forces to take them out first?"
"That's exactly what I was thinking."
Flashy Flash and Sonic exchanged a smile. The two were still as in sync as they were when they trained in the Ninja Village.
"Kill!!!"
Pfft... Pfft...
Under their combined efforts, the Heavenly Ninja Party had almost no power to resist. It was just a one-sided slaughter.
"Damn it! When That One descends, their end will be here!"
Hum!
At this moment, a strange ripple enveloped the entire mine. Flashy Flash and Sonic knew that That One had likely descended, and they both braced themselves.
"Ahhh!"
Waves of screams rang out, and all the members of the Heavenly Ninja Party present fell to their knees as their chests suddenly burst open. Countless internal organs and flesh sprayed out, gradually coalescing into a human figure.
"So you rely on devouring internal organs to awaken? What a disgusting guy." Sonic frowned.
"It's just an illusion. Don't be fooled by him. If he could plunder others' internal organs out of thin air, we would have been dead long ago." A trace of disdain flashed in Flashy Flash's eyes.
He understood Empty Void's abilities very well.
"The 44th class student, Flashy Flash?"
"But even if you know this is an illusion, can you resist it?"
Empty Void's hoarse voice sounded, and a strange smile appeared on the corner of his lips.
"Hmm? What is this!"
Flashy Flash suddenly felt a heavy weight in his hand, and the next scene left him stunned on the spot. What he was holding in his hand was actually Sonic's head.
Scenes of their time in the Ninja Village flashed before his eyes. The two closest brothers who, in the end, escaped the Ninja Village together under Flashy Flash's leadership.
"What a pity."
Empty Void's figure came before Flashy Flash, holding a cube in his hand, that was the source of his power.
"Goodbye, 44th class student Flashy Flash."
Pfft!
Just as Empty Void was about to decapitate Flashy Flash, a slash suddenly descended, nearly severing his arm.
"What? You can actually jump out of the dream?!" Empty Void was very surprised.
At this moment, Sonic was looking at him with a sneer.
"Sonic..."
Flashy Flash woke up at this moment, stunned by the scene before him.
"Didn't I say it already? Such petty tricks can't fool me." A proud expression appeared on Sonic's face.
This couldn't be blamed on Empty Void, it was mainly because his dream was simply too absurd. In the dream, a monster cell was beckoning to him, and then he jumped into a pot to finish being cooked. Finally, it even persuadedSonic to eat the monster cell immediately and become the strongest ninja.
"Although I don't know why Saitama and King are so strong, I have already seen the demeanor of the strong I aspire to be from Flashy Flash. Since I have a goal, I just need to pursue it. As for things like monster cells, I haven't needed them for a long time. I will definitely be able to surpass him with my own abilities."
Sonic's gaze was firm, he was still too far from his goal right now.
"Hey! Hurry up and get up!"
Flashy Flash stood up with a smile and brushed the dust off his body.
"I owe you a favor this time."
"Let's go together."
