Chapter 917: The Gift of the Strongest (Fake)

Saitama subconsciously pinched his nose and held his breath, but the vacuum environment actually didn't cause him much discomfort, at most feeling his body a bit swollen.

Saitama climbed out of the pit, picked up a stone and tossed it in his hand, and after confirming the gravity of the environment he was now in, he aimed at the azure planet above and made a super jump, with the moon losing a small half under the recoil.

"Huff, huff——"

Boros panted heavily.

His current form, like human anaerobic exercise, would place a huge burden on his body, the final result being a drastic reduction in lifespan.

Originally, he had planned to save this move for last, using it as a finishing blow after Saitama's stamina was nearly depleted.

But after Saitama said 【Your full power is only this much】, Boros used this move ahead of time.

"Thinking about it now, I was a bit impulsive——"

"Bang!"

A huge roar sounded nearby, interrupting Boros's muttering to himself, and Boros looked in disbelief at the bald head walking out of the dust.

"I didn't expect I could jump this accurately from so far away. Indeed, have my techniques become more powerful——"

Saitama muttered to himself, then looked at Boros and began to praise him.

"That kick of yours was really powerful. I almost thought I couldn't come back."

Seeing that Saitama appeared to have suffered no serious injury, Boros's single eye instantly narrowed, with bloodshot veins faintly appearing inside.

The fatigue from his body told his instinct that he needed to find a place to rest properly, but Boros nonetheless charged toward Saitama.

【For this man, I am willing to give everything I have!】

", didn't that kick just now satisfy you?"

Seeing Boros attack again, Saitama asked in surprise.

"How could I be satisfied? This battle is destined to have one fall!"

The ground cracked under the physical shockwave, and Boros pursued relentlessly.

"Since that's the case, I'll fight back!"

Taking a beating passively was because Saitama saw his own shadow in Boros.

Because of his invincible strength, he gradually felt loneliness and boredom.

However, constantly taking hits was not what he wanted.

"Fight back, I've been wishing for that!"

As Boros finished speaking, his abdomen took a punch from Saitama.

"Ugh——"

A mouth split open directly on his face, and from inside he spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Sorry, did I hit too hard?"

Seeing this, Saitama quickly withdrew his fist.

"Are you insulting me?"

"No."

"Then why hold back?"

"Because, I think it's unnecessary to kill you just because of fighting."

Saitama thought for a moment and seriously answered this question.

A-City was not destroyed, and no heroes died.

After understanding Boros's purpose, Saitama did not develop killing intent toward Boros.

On the contrary, because of those words about invincible loneliness, Saitama deeply resonated.

"I see. You fought me with such thoughts, so then I must make you get serious, and fight me with the intent to kill me."

", what do you want to do?"

"That city is what you're protecting, right? If you don't kill me, I'll go over there and destroy it."

Boros's injuries had already quickly recovered under the state of bursting energy now. He said this to Saitama, then charged toward A-City.

This forced Saitama to chase and intercept him. During this process Boros was beaten all over with wounds, but he laughed heartily: "Exactly, exactly like this. Fight me with the intent to kill me, not with naive sparring thoughts!"

"You want to die?"

"Either kill me and stop me, or wait until I reach that city and completely destroy it!"

Upon hearing this, Saitama no longer held back. Boros's body was directly turned into minced meat by one punch, and his single eye, carrying some flesh, flew out, staring wide in midair, seemingly unable to believe he had no resistance at all and his physical body was destroyed.

At this moment, Boros fully realized the huge gap in strength between himself and Saitama. Perhaps surrendering directly was not a bad choice, but——

The scattered flesh was pulled by the energy core to reform his body. The energy core no longer cared about causing irreversible harm to the body, releasing all its energy.

"Saitama, this is my last move. If you can't block it, your planet will be destroyed along with you—Collapsing Star Roaring Cannon!"

Boros did not use his killing move sneakily. On the contrary, he charged up openly and even reminded him with words. Facing the terrifying energy cannon coming at him, Saitama neither dodged nor avoided, using the Serious Series, a serious punch——

The energy cannon capable of destroying a planet was dispersed by a more terrifying physical shockwave. Earth, centered on their battlefield, was combed into a not very symmetrical middle-part hairstyle.

Boros's body was like burned out, becoming thin and shriveled as he fell to the ground. Saitama walked over and squatted beside him: "Still alive?"

"Did I lose?"

A weak voice came out, and the dim single eye seemed unable to see anything anymore.

"Mm."

""

"As the prophecy foretold, this is a battle of equals——"

"Yeah."

"Liar. Your strength is far greater than mine. I had no power to fight back. If you had been serious from the start, I would probably be like Groribas, instantly killed by your single punch——"

"Since you've already realized, why don't you stop?"

"I am Boros, I am the Universe Dominator, I traveled thousands of miles to this planet because I wanted to obtain a fierce, evenly-matched battle to end my boring invincible life, I should not retreat, and I absolutely will not retreat————"

"So you'll pay with your life, is it worth it?"

"I don't know, but what I'm clear about is, this battle with you, is the time I've felt the most passionate and fired up in my long life after becoming invincible————"

"Hmm, same for me."

"Saitama————"

"Do you have any last words?"

"My spaceship is yours————"

"?"

"Invincibility makes one feel lonely, makes one feel bored with everything, when you feel bored on this planet, you can board my spaceship, and like me go into the universe, to search for opponents worthy of your battle————"

"Why?"

"Consider it a gift from the former strongest invincible person, to the new strongest invincible person————"

"But I'm not the strongest one either————

26

Saitama's words suddenly stopped.

"Can't hear anymore?!"

On the ground, Boros had already completely lost his breath, only the corner of his mouth was slightly curved up, looking like he was smiling, seemingly having died satisfied.

Saitama dug a pit for him, buried the remains inside, and even erected a tombstone carved with his finger reading 【Universe Dominator】.

After doing all this, Saitama dusted off his hands and headed back toward A-City.

"Come on, you stinking alien octopus, why don't you use that telekinetic air cannon of yours again?!"

Facing Tatsumaki manipulating the entire Hero Association Headquarters building and clashing telekinetic power values head-on with him, Geryuganshoop, this technique-type Telekinesis Master, really had no way out; he wanted to escape back to the spaceship, Tatsumaki smashed the spaceship along with it; he wanted to flee into the city to make Tatsumaki hesitate to use her power for fear of collateral damage, but Broly cut in horizontally with a kick and kicked him back.

When Saitama returned to the A-City Hero Association Headquarters side, Tatsumaki had just compressed Geryuganshoop into a large meat ball.

And Zombieman also used his recovery as the main tank to draw aggro, and Child Emperor's remotely controlled robots, together with the half-destroyed Drive Knight, difficultly completed the finishing blow on Melzargard.

"How come you even dismantled the Hero Association Headquarters building on your side?"

After Saitama returned, seeing the Association Headquarters building tilted and stuck in the ruins, he looked at Broly with some puzzlement, not knowing why it would become like this with him here.

"She needed it for battle."

Broly pointed at Tatsumaki floating in the sky, replied a sentence to Saitama, then asked him.

"By the way, Saitama, how did you return from outer space? I remember you can't fly, right?"

"You really know the situation on my side————

"

"Not very clear, I can only remotely sense the changes and movement of your Qi."

"I had good luck, after being punched into outer space, I just happened to collide with the moon, I jumped back from the moon."

Saitama also replied a sentence.

"Good that you're back, but, with your strength, how did you manage to let yourself almost flip the car?"

"There are many reasons for this, but the most important thing right now is, can you let that arrogant guy up there show a little mercy?"

"Why show mercy?"

"That Universe Dominator named Boros, before dying, gifted his spaceship to me.

"So, you want to protect your property?"

"No, he gifted it to the new invincible person, and you're stronger than me, therefore, the spaceship above and the crew on the spaceship should now belong to you, so strictly speaking, I'm reminding you to protect your property and employees."

Broly: "???"

"But this time during the disaster, I was just making soy sauce the whole time."

"I'm just respecting the spaceship's original owner's will, coming to remind you, as for whether you destroy the spaceship, kill the crew above, or keep the spaceship, retain the crew above, that's your business."

Broly touched his chin, thought of the matter of collecting species samples, since this world has Tianwai species, owning a spaceship is also pretty good.

Broly flew up, went to Tatsumaki's side, and said: "Tatsumaki-nee, can you stop for a bit?"

"What for?"

Tatsumaki turned her head, her voice neither cold nor enthusiastic, her impression of Broly was somewhat subtle, especially just now when the alien octopus wanted to run into the city, she had a bit of difficulty stopping it, yet the person before her stepped in front of the alien octopus and kicked it back to continue the death match with her————

Although she didn't really want to admit it, the person before her might be much stronger than she had imagined, possibly even stronger than herself.

"The situation is like this————"

Broly blah blah blah, told Tatsumaki the things Saitama told him, one time through.

"So, you inherited the enemy's spaceship and little brothers?"

After hearing it, Tatsumaki looked at him with some surprise, but didn't continue tightening her esper power.

"What, Lord Boros died, how is that possible?"

And compared to Tatsumaki's calmness, Geryuganshoop compressed into a ball was completely unable to stay calm.

"Your boss's Qi has indeed disappeared, if you don't believe it, you can go ask the person who solved your boss.

"

Geryuganshoop was controlled to land, Broly pointed at Saitama and introduced him: "Here, this is the person who solved your boss, heard your boss's final will."

"I can take you to see your boss's grave."

"Even if Lord Boros died, I Geryuganshoop will not surrender to the enemy————"

"In that case, you stinking octopus can just go die."

Tatsumaki directly increased her esper power tightening intensity.

"Ah, stop stop stop, I haven't finished speaking————"

"What else do you want to say?"

"Although I would not surrender to the enemy, if this is Lord Boros's final lingering wish, then as Lord Boros's die-hard loyalist, I, Geryuganshoop, am willing to lead the other crew members in serving the new captain."

Geryuganshoop dared not continue displaying his backbone, and hurriedly stated his true attitude; as for whether Lord Boros's bequeathal of the spaceship in his will was real or not.

With Lord Boros already gone, the other two strongest combatants also killed, and himself reduced to a captive, even if it were fake, he could only treat it as real.

After all, this was already his only way to survive.

"You stinking alien octopus, if you dare rebel against someone under my protection, watch out or I'll kill you."

Tatsumaki gave Broly face and released Geryuganshoop, but after releasing him, she actively threatened him.

"I wouldn't dare. Toward Broly-sama, I will absolutely be just as loyal as I was to Lord Boros!"

Having regained his freedom, Geryuganshoop hurriedly spoke, looking like he was bowing and scraping; but this was only natural, because the kick Broly had just kicked him back with — Geryuganshoop could sense the state of his own psychic barrier — was like brittle paper, instantly shattered in one hit.

After Geryuganshoop gave up resistance and surrendered, the subsequent matters became simple; Broly brought Saitama and explained the situation to Sitch, the Hero Association's person in charge, and all that remained was cleaning up the current situation.

In the sky, the spaceship that had suffered some damage from Tatsumaki controlling the Headquarters Building to smash it landed on the ruins; the non-combatant aliens inside the spaceship filed out in a queue, disarmed completely, and accepted the Hero Association's temporary control.

Just at this time, a luxury sedan drove into the ruin area and stopped before the crooked Association Headquarters Building; A-Class Rank 1

Sweet Mask got out of the car. He looked at the chaotic scene on site, and a trace of anger surfaced on his handsome face.

"Truly hard to believe. This is the Hero Association Headquarters, yet with so many S-Class Heroes present, it actually ended up like this?"

S
