A momentary silence ensued.
All the [S] class heroes were looking at Pain, who was standing there.
"Although I don't know the exact situation, right now … all the monsters have been devoured by that guy, right? In other words, we only need to defeat one of them."
The zombie-man held a mace in his hand and looked at Pain, his eyes flickering as he spoke.
The metallic bat rested his mace on his shoulder and looked at Pain, saying, "In other words, as long as we deal with him, I can go back and watch my younger sister's piano performance, right?"
Tong Di's gaze was solemn as he said, "Don't be careless! That guy has devoured all the monsters, and his current strength is probably unimaginable. "
"That's true …"
The Atomic Warrior bit his toothpick, raised his head, and said, "But our opponents have all disappeared. In this case, we can only surround and attack him."
Bangu walked over and stared at Pain. He slowly said, "I heard that your previous siege was very fierce."
"That's already in the past," Flashing Fraser said calmly.
Flashing Fraser said calmly, "After that, I underwent high-intensity training. I am now far stronger than before."
The sexy prisoner bent his arm, causing the thick muscles on his upper arm to bulge. He said, "Me too. I've already comprehended Angel Freestyle and Angel Bristle. I won't lose so easily like before."
"I've also changed into a vest … In any case, let's attack together."
Venerable Vest stepped forward.
Along with his movement, the sexy prisoner, Superalloy Black Light, Flash Fraser, Atomic Warrior, and the others also moved together, approaching the Tree of Pain, vaguely surrounding it in the center.
The only one who didn't move was the modified demon, Jenos. He looked at the sky, at the battlefield between Maple Night and Lilith. He frowned, thinking about something.
"Ah, it's best if you guys don't come over."
Saitama noticed the actions of the other S-rank heroes. He turned his head and looked at the others.
However, the Atomic Warrior grinned and said, "How can we let you deal with the last monster alone? If that's the case, we won't be heroes anymore."
"It's my duty," the zombie-like man said calmly.
The zombie-like man calmly opened his mouth and said, "I still have to help."
None of the S-rank heroes stopped because of Saitama's words. They all continued to approach Pain. Although most of them had been defeated before, they had all trained hard and improved after that.
They felt that they might not be able to win if they fought alone. However, if everyone worked together, they would still be able to do something. Even if they could only restrain Pain for a moment, it would still be good.
However …
Pain didn't even look at the S-rank heroes that were approaching it. Instead, it only looked at Saitama calmly. Saitama also looked over.
He tilted his head and said, "So, your role-playing game has finally reached its final act?"
"Role-Playing?"
Child Emperor, who had walked to Saitama's side, looked at him in confusion.
Saitama wore a cloak and folded his arms in front of him. He looked at Pain and said, "Role-Playing and then get rid of all the monsters. This should be the end."
Saitama's judgment of monsters and humans was completely different from anyone else's. For example, the entire world believed that Sweetheart Mask was a monster who had infiltrated the human camp. However, in Saitama's eyes, Sweetheart Mask was a human and a qualified hero.
The standard to judge whether a human was a monster or not should not be their appearance, but their soul.
In Saitama's eyes, no matter how he looked at it, Pain couldn't be judged as a pure monster. Even if he wasn't a hero, he could only be defined as a human acting as a monster.
"Please don't make such a judgment. That guy is the most dangerous monster!"
Child Emperor was stunned. Then, cold sweat appeared on his forehead. He immediately said to Saitama.
The zombie-man also said in a deep voice, "Mr. Saitama, that judgment must be wrong …"
Some of the other S-rank heroes nearby who heard Saitama's words also looked over. To them, Saitama's judgment was like a fantasy!
The words of the S-rank heroes caused Saitama's face to darken. He said, "You guys are so noisy. Don't you have the ability to judge?"
At about this time …
Pain, who had been looking at his hands and feeling his power, raised his head. He ignored the S-rank heroes nearby and looked in Saitama's direction.
"It's a little noisy. Let's clear the area first."
Pain's words caused Child Emperor and the others to pause. Almost at the same time, a bad premonition rose in their hearts. They looked at Pain in unison and felt as if the entire sky had suddenly darkened. The atmosphere had become extremely oppressive and terrifying.
Pain stood there calmly. Then, a blood-red pattern suddenly bloomed in his eyes, and a terrifying pressure instantly spread out.
Hum!
This was the product of the combination of mental strength and ocular power, as well as Haoshoku Haki. It was no longer completely illusory. Instead, one could see with the naked eye a ripple that caused the air to distort. With Pain as the center, it instantly spread out in all directions.
This ripple spread across the ground, causing the ground under Pain's feet to collapse inch by inch. It spread in all directions like a spider web.
"I can't move …"
"Oh no …"
"What is this …"
Apart from Saitama, the expressions of all the S-rank heroes changed drastically when they saw the shockwave sweeping over with flying dust and shockwaves.
They felt a great threat, and subconsciously wanted to use their respective moves to defend or retreat, but they found that they couldn't move!
It was as if they were being suppressed by some terrifying force.
Atomic Warrior, Super Alloy Black Light, Sexy Prisoner … Apart from Saitama, all the other S-rank Heroes were like ordinary people. They could only watch helplessly as the shockwave engulfed them and sent them flying backward.
Each of them was like a piece of paper wrapped in a gale, unable to move or struggle. What they felt was a terrifying pressure that could not be described with words. It was as if a heavy mountain was pressing down on their bodies and souls, causing them to nearly suffocate.
In an instant …
With Pain as the center, all the ruins within a radius of several thousand meters were flattened and disappeared. All the S-class heroes were also wrapped in the ruins and sent flying several thousand meters away.
Plop! Plop!
The S-class heroes and the ruins that were sent flying stopped at the same time. Among them, the weak Sexy Prisoner and the others directly fainted. As for the stronger ones like Super Alloy Black Light, their bodies trembled violently, unable to gather any strength. They could not even control their fingers.
Everyone fell in the ruins, and they could only look at the Divine Tree Pain in shock.
"How can this be …
"Just the aura alone is already …"
Child Emperor fell on top of a pile of ruins, unable to move. He looked in the direction of Pain, his eyes filled with fear and disbelief.
Although One-Eyed Emperor had been very powerful in the past and had defeated most of the S-class heroes, they could at least put up a fight against him.
But now …
Just by relying on his aura and mental attack, he was able to defeat all of them in an instant, leaving them with almost no ability to resist. What kind of terrifying power was this!?
At this moment, everyone realized something horrifying. The Divine Tree Pain had devoured those Dragon class monsters. The power of these monsters was not just a simple addition.
This was a leap in level.
It was like going from the tiger-class to the ghost-class, or from the ghost-class to the dragon-class.
Pain itself was already a god-class calamity. If it evolved another level, what kind of level would it reach?!
Realizing this, Tong Di and the others felt a sense of dread, as though a great catastrophe was about to befall them.
This time …
Things were not looking good for them!
At the same time, they saw the only person who had not been sent flying and was still standing there — Saitama!
Saitama just stood there, his cloak swaying with the wind, but his body did not sway at all.
He glanced sideways at the S-rank heroes that were sent flying, then looked back at God Tree Pain with a slightly interested gaze. "Oh, this does have the atmosphere of a final boss. In that case, I'll be the last hero to stop you."
"If you can do it."
The Divine Tree Pain said calmly, then he swung his fist.
In terms of total power, the current divine tree of Pain was basically no different from the Ten-Tailed Maple Night. However, the difference was that it didn't lose control of its power.
In terms of life rating, it was close to the original body, and under Feng Ye's control, it could exert almost 100% of its power. The power of Pain's punch was close to the full power of Feng Ye's original body.
As the punch was swung …
Sky, Earth, Life, Soul …
At this moment, everything on Earth seemed to be trembling!
Facing such a punch, Saitama's eyes finally revealed an unprecedented solemn gaze, and he swung his fist to meet the punch.
His solemn gaze and his posture had undoubtedly clearly indicated who this punch belonged to —
Seriously!
The distance between Saitama and Pain was close to ten meters, and their fists were also close to ten meters apart. When their fists collided, if everything was calm, this scene would look very silly.
But that was obviously not possible.
Boom!!!
An indescribably loud sound exploded from the center of the two. The thunderous sound had exceeded the upper limit of human endurance. Surging white light soared into the sky, penetrating the sky and the earth.
The clouds exploded, and the earth cracked.
In the ruins thousands of meters away, Super Alloy Black Light and the others, who were struggling to get up, were once again swept away by the shockwaves and shockwaves, and were sent flying even further away.
"Ahhhh …"
No one was able to stabilize themselves, and everyone was swept away by the force of the impact.
Swoosh!
Thousands of meters high in the sky, a flash of white light flashed for a brief moment. In an instant, it streaked across the sky and stopped far away, revealing the figures of two people.
After dragging the tornado out of the impact range of the shockwaves, Feng Ye released his grip and stood in the sky with his hands clasped behind his back, calmly looking in the direction of the explosion in the distance.
What entered his eyes.
It was the entire sky. With the area where the divine tree Pain and Saitama collided as the center, the clouds spread out into the distance. At the same time, a gigantic mushroom cloud rose into the sky like a nuclear explosion, blotting out the sun.
Tornado's body stiffened, and she was frozen in place. Even she trembled at the impact of such a collision.
"So terrifying …"
"Can that baldy block it …?"
Feng Ye stood in the sky, his gaze piercing through the dust and mist as he looked at the center of the battle. He calmly said, "If it's him, of course he can."
