Chapter 401: I Succeeded!

Kageyama Shigeo craved greater power with a desperation he had never felt in his life; whether he lost control or fell into darkness, he wanted to—with absolute certainty—kill the person before him!

The boy, who harbored great kindness in his heart, produced true malice in his heart at this very moment; it was the absolute evil of wanting to slaughter another living soul.

Riiip!

The Spirit World, which only possessed the colors of black and white, twisted; the surrounding buildings and the clouds in the sky were completely distorted into unrecognizable shapes.

Even Kageyama Shigeo's own "God Body," constructed from peerless Spirit Ability, had been completely twisted.

In the entire distorted world, only one thing remained that still maintained its original appearance.

Or rather, only one 【individual】 remained.

The bald man wearing a simple yellow bodysuit let the Spirit World Evil Lord hold him in his palm as if he had no sensation, let the twisted space continuously crush his body, and let the Spirit World's cities collide with him after shattering.

Saitama just quietly watched this black figure who seemed to hate him to the core.

He did not recognize the other party, nor had he ever seen this type of "monster."

Calling it a monster, it lacked the special flavor that only monsters possessed.

But it was also definitely not a human.

"What... are you?"

Saitama asked calmly; he did not become angry because the other party had attacked him. In fact, the emotion of 【Anger】 had not appeared within Saitama's body for a very long time.

So long ago that he had already begun to forget the existence of that emotion.

Saitama knew that he was actually influenced a great deal by that invisible Supermarket, and that he had likely lost quite a few emotions; therefore, he hoped to clarify right now why the other party hated him.

Unlike that green-haired brat, this guy before him was likely the kind of hateful that wished to kill him; that was hatred.

Saitama opened his hands, and Kageyama Shigeo only felt a peerless force appear; the next moment, the Spirit Ability between his palms was shattered.

That terrifying Spirit Ability, which was enough to crush an entire city into a pellet, was split open by the other party simply spreading his hands.

This kind of power...

Kageyama Shigeo became increasingly certain in his heart that that guy had indeed not lied to him; it was not an illusion, but the future seen by combining that guy's ability with his own.

The person before him, without a doubt, possessed the power to destroy the world.

It was a truly peerless violence that neither he nor anyone else could stop.

Having such power, why did it turn into that kind of situation...

Kageyama Shigeo had once feared his own power, believing that overly great power would only invite misfortune; now, he felt a shuddering fear for this power of Saitama's.

The space beneath Saitama's feet was empty; he had no footing and began to fall. Saitama's hands wanted to grab onto something, but Kageyama Shigeo merely moved his mind, and everything shattered.

Saitama fell into an infinite descent, as if falling into a black hole.

Kageyama Shigeo watched Saitama, whom he had thrown into the Spirit World vortex, continuously sinking; he did not relax at all, but instead pressed his hands down.

"Sink into this place forever."

The pitch-black space began to overlap, and the depressions in the Spirit World were being repaired; in order to bury Saitama, Kageyama Shigeo did not hesitate to make the entire Spirit World shrink as the price, folding the Spirit World layer by layer.

That was no longer a simple space wall, but layers of Space Barrier superimposed, almost equivalent to completely isolating it into two worlds; if there were enough time, this kind of barrier would be enough to become a new Plane Crystal Wall, eventually completely making the Spirit World and the Empty void where Saitama was located into different Planes.

Saitama covered his nose; the air gradually disappeared, gravity had dropped to an extremely low level, and the surroundings were pitch black; he began to be unable to see anything.

Although Saitama still did not understand why the other party hated him, he did not want to stay in this kind of place anymore, so he raised his right hand and threw a punch upward.

"Who the hell are you!"

Bang!

Like a gusher, the energy of 【Spirit】 erupted like a flood and a hurricane for the first time; the Spirit World ground that had just been folded was punched through in an instant.

That power did not stop; accompanied by a bang, the sunlight from outside the world was revealed. Saitama punched through the entire Spirit World from the bottom of the folded Spirit World, once again revealing the real world.

Kageyama Shigeo, who had just wanted to relax a little, was immediately alerted by his Inspiration; that shuddering sensation rising from his tailbone was a feeling he had never experienced before.

He turned his head in horror, just in time to see the bald man jumping up from underground with a fist raised.

"Ugh!"

Yunque let out a muffled groan; the air that rushed in suddenly, together with the energy storm of the Spirit World, impacted him, making his facial features almost twist; he could no longer breathe in the midst of this level of impact.

Bai Cangshu's hair scattered; the Greed Cocoon on his body surface was almost completely dissipated by the aftermath of this punch; the tough flesh on his face twitched continuously, making his handsome face almost twist like a monster.

But Bai Cangshu was completely unaware, and even less concerned; he only felt his pupils trembling continuously, and even the God's Artificial Eye between his brows had already opened.

He wanted to see clearly; he wanted to see the true face of that punch!

Thump-thump, thump-thump!

Bai Cangshu's heartbeat sounds merged into one; in the extreme state of activating 【Eighth Stage Instant】, he prepared to activate 【Super Limit Spiral】 again, despite the extreme danger of such a high frequency of using this talent.

But if he could see the mystery of Saitama's power clearly, Bai Cangshu did not care at all.

Pfft!

Fresh blood gushed from Bai Cangshu's nose and mouth; his agitated hair did not spread out, nor did it begin to grow.

Damn it, spiral for me!

Bai Cangshu braved the terrifying Energy Torrent, wanting to watch the battle between these two at close range.

Riiip!

The high-speed beating heart caused the 【Thunder Emperor Heart】 to operate at overload; intense thunder power erupted from within Bai Cangshu's body. Amidst the thunderous explosions, Bai Cangshu finally passed through the aftermath of the Spirit World's shattering.

Kageyama Shigeo, in the midst of his shuddering, happened to sense this newly appeared power; his eyes were still looking at Saitama, but his spiritual sense involuntarily swept over Bai Cangshu.

Suddenly, his figure paused; Bai Cangshu, who had not activated the 【Super Limit Spiral】 state, appeared to him with such a familiar face.

"It's you..."

Roar!

He suddenly made some kind of sound, but because the spirit energy began to shriek, that sound could not be received by Bai Cangshu's eardrums at all, and then it exploded through Bai Cangshu's eardrums with a bang.

Bai Cangshu's head went empty, his consciousness instantly became chaotic, and his brain had already been damaged.

Saitama turned his head at this time, also looking at this scene in surprise; he did not know why this guy, who clearly did not seem to have much malice toward humans, had suddenly attacked the weak Tao Baibai.

But regardless, Tao Baibai is a hero who has saved many people; Saitama lowered his head, pulled his fist back to his waist, and threw a punch toward the enormous black figure.

Inside a small house in Z City, the long-haired Fate Eternal suddenly dropped the old-fashioned game console in his hands, pushed open the window, and laughed loudly:

"Ha, it's done!"
