Chapter 343: The Legend of the New Fubuki Group (Fourth Update, Monthly Ticket Bonus Update)

"A hero... for fun..."

Saitama looked at this headline, and it took quite some effort for him to recall that this had been his only hobby for a very long time.

He set down the miscellaneous items in his hands and looked at the report in the newspaper; the reporter who wrote this article had used the most flowery language, as if desperate to portray this hero as a legend from a myth.

"Teacher, monsters have started appearing again recently. Large-scale destruction events have occurred in many cities over the past two days, and then there was that Great Catastrophe half a year ago..."

Data was constantly refreshing in Genos's eyes. He pulled up many events from the database, wanting to persuade his teacher.

He was very unwilling to see his omnipotent teacher turn into the walking corpse he was today.

Genos could feel that Saitama was becoming increasingly detached and indifferent. Last week, when a large supermarket in the neighboring city held its anniversary sale, Saitama didn't even show much excitement, merely going to line up and shop out of habit.

The "humanity" in his teacher was fading. He had inquired with the owner of that supermarket, and his teacher's attendance record was becoming increasingly irregular; perhaps one day, Saitama might completely abandon these boring daily routines.

Genos felt an inexplicable anxiety about that future. He was very worried about what the other party would become on the day Saitama truly had no desires left.

If a being with superhuman power loses all the desires a human should have, can they still be called a 【Human】?

The doctor told Genos that being 【Human】 does not lie in the flesh; even a cyborg like him, who had been completely modified, was still human as long as he possessed human emotions and morals.

Then, conversely, even if one has a human appearance and a human body, if one has completely lost human emotions and morals, one is naturally no longer human.

A teacher... who no longer belongs to humanity.

That kind of future was something Genos could not imagine.

Saitama's eyes lacked luster. His life had long been occupied by boredom. When monsters gradually disappeared, and when this world was gradually occupied by a group of people who needed to pay for registration to be called 【Heroes】, he slowly lost his only hobby.

Feeling dull and tasteless, he would occasionally miss the days of the past, but as time went on, those memories also began to dissipate.

At this moment, he looked at the smiling face in the newspaper, along with the other person's thick hair, and felt a touch of concern for no reason.

——

"That hero for fun, is it you?"

The woman crossed her arms, making her proud figure stand out even more. Her dark green hair was slightly longer than Bai Cangshu had imagined, hanging down to her shoulders.

The woman wore gold ring-shaped earrings and a pearl necklace around her neck. Over her dark green form-fitting robe, she wore a black fur coat.

A gorgeous appearance and an imposing manner—this was the head hero of the 【Fubuki Office】, which currently held the top popularity among all Professional Hero agencies—【Fubuki】.

Surrounded by a blue glow, she slowly descended from the air and casually surveyed the surrounding environment.

The woman sneered as she spoke.

"Because this area is near the Spirit World Infestation Zone, it is basically abandoned. This is not your true residence."

"You guy, you're just a hypocrite who ran over here temporarily from somewhere else to deliberately hype up your reputation, right?"

At this moment, several black sedans had already arrived in front of the small building where Bai Cangshu was temporarily staying, and men in suits stepped out one after another.

Bai Cangshu looked at this display, shook his head with a chuckle, and then stepped forward, closing to within half a meter of the woman.

This distance was extremely dangerous, and the people behind Fubuki immediately surrounded them.

Fubuki frowned, but she was unwilling to be overwhelmed in momentum by the person in front of her. She simply floated upward, and a strong wind pressure accompanied by Psychokinesis created a powerful sense of oppression, looking down at Bai Cangshu from above.

Bai Cangshu knew very well that by using Reincarnators and Plot Characters to hype up the title of 【Hero for fun】, he would inevitably attract the attention of some Reincarnators and Plot Characters.

But he did not expect that the first to find him would not be other Reincarnators, but this Ability User.

【Fubuki】, once the B-Class Rank 1 hero of the Hero Association, had real strength roughly in the top ten of A-Class. However, because she had long lived in the shadow of her sister 【Tatsumaki】, she had never received any "number one" ranking, and thus refused to be promoted to A-Class, occupying the first seat of B-Class.

Unlike that monster Tatsumaki, she was a normal Ability User with normal strength.

"Heh, who knows about that."

Bai Cangshu did not defend himself. His eyes swept over the Fubuki Group members behind her; this group of former heroes, described by Tatsumaki as a "B-Class hobbyist club," indeed did not possess any powerful combat capability.

At best, they were just ordinary people with strong bodies and certain combat skills; they couldn't even win one-on-one against slightly stronger monsters.

But such an organization had achieved success in the era of professional heroes. Because they were numerous and very united, they played a role in many fields, step by step making the 【Fubuki Office】 one of the few agencies that still conducted normal hero activities today.

Of course, they were very shrewd; they would collect Intelligence in advance before every sortie. They would give up on targets that were too powerful, and Fubuki would strike directly at weak enemies.

In a sense, the Fubuki Group was the hero organization best suited for the current era.

Fubuki looked at the flash of red light in the eyes of the man in front of her who called himself 【Hero for fun】. She stood in front of Lili, who was by her side. The other party's eyes didn't look like a hero's at all; they looked more like... a predator.

"Since you call yourself a hero for fun, you should know that guy, right?"

Fubuki did not like the man in front of her. Just from a single encounter, she felt uncomfortable. If her sister Tatsumaki's Arrogance was an undisguised treatment of everyone except herself as trash, then the person in front of her hid an evil aura beneath his smile, treating everyone as lambs to the slaughter.

Such a person calling himself 【Hero for fun】 made her feel unpleasant.

But she had also experienced many things over the past two years and was no longer as impulsive as before. She did not start a conflict, but instead directly asked about Saitama's whereabouts.

Since the Great Catastrophe, more and more events had made her feel powerless. Fubuki realized that a hero like her was not enough to protect the world, so she wanted to gather the former "New Fubuki Group" again.

She had mobilized her influence and already had leads on 【Bang】; the other party seemed to be living in retirement somewhere in Z City. 【King】 was also occasionally spotted by witnesses at some game stores. Only that man, who in her heart was vaguely the only one who could compare to her sister, could not be found anywhere.

Therefore, she came to find this so-called Nameless Hero.

Bai Cangshu's gaze wandered, the corners of his mouth curling up slightly. He suddenly reached out toward Fubuki.

Fubuki frowned, and her powerful Psychokinesis was instantly triggered, but at this moment, one of the Fubuki Group members had already rushed over in advance.

Lili did not expect this newcomer who had just joined the Fubuki Group to react so quickly and be so brave. She subconsciously moved aside while simultaneously unfolding her three-section staff, preparing to flank this so-called Nameless Hero who had reached out a "dirty hand" toward Lady Fubuki.

But the next moment, she saw several sparkling spherical objects pinched in the other party's hands, and a huge sense of crisis emerged.

"Watch out!"

Fubuki turned around and saw the firelight erupt. At the last moment, she subconsciously pushed with one hand, and Lili was instantly blown away by her Psychokinesis. The exploding firelight instantly engulfed him.

Boom!

The power far exceeded any grenade explosion of this era. The violent shockwave made 【Shanyuan】 and 【Jiemao】, the two deputies of the Fubuki Group, feel a tightness in their chests. They were more than ten meters away from the explosion point, but they still saw black and felt the world spinning.

The two staggered forward, wanting to see if Lady Fubuki was injured.

The next moment, they heard a bang, and a terrifying gunshot came from very far away. In the smoke of the explosion, blood sprayed out.

In a forest three kilometers away from this place, a Reincarnator saw the blood through the sniper scope, confirmed through the space panel that there was no prompt for attacking a Reincarnator, and spoke through the headset:

"【Wildfire】 reporting. Wildfire has completed the objective. Plot Character Fubuki has been injured. Preparing to retreat."

Fubuki is a voluptuous bomb; many Reincarnators want to capture her, but they fear her overly powerful sister.

But likewise, Fubuki is also a sharp Vessel that can be used to kill with a borrowed knife; one only needs to kill or seriously injure her when Fubuki makes contact with certain Reincarnators, and those Reincarnators will naturally face Tatsumaki's attack.

"Heh, Tao Baibai... wanting to violate the Iron Law is not that easy."

"Tremble..."

Yehuo turned around, took a Harley motorcycle out of his Backpack, straddled it, and was about to leave when other orders came through his headset.

"No energy Wave above the 'Ferocious' rank detected. Yehuo, please confirm whether you hit the target..."

Yehuo frowned, turned back, and raised his sniper rifle again. Through the sniper scope, he saw the smoke had already dissipated; the shaken woman's chest was heaving, but there were no signs of any injury.

The next moment, Yehuo suddenly felt a chill in his heart—what about that guy...

He rotated the sniper scope and suddenly saw a face right in front of him, as well as the cruel smile on that face.

"Wait a second, I am Mu..."

Pfft!

The sniper scope on the sniper rifle was violently thrust into Yehuo's eye socket by a large hand.
