Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

Page 397

Bang charged forward, then leaped into the air, stomping his feet on the ground to create an explosion, propelling him like an arrow towards the ring.

Haojie looked at Bangu, who had come to the ring, with some disappointment.

"What? He's just an old man."

Bangu, with his hands behind his back and his back hunched, laughed upon hearing this: "Hehehe, don't underestimate the elderly."

First round.

A martial arts eccentric hero clashes with martial arts master Bang!

With a stomp of their feet, the hard, iron-like ground cracked slightly, and the two figures, one large and one small, rushed toward each other at an astonishing speed under nine times the force of gravity, seemingly unaffected.

The hero unleashed a punch accompanied by a powerful gust of wind.

Bang's hands traced a flowing pattern in the air as Gouketsu's powerful punch slammed into the ground. Bang leaped up and delivered a high kick that struck Gouketsu's chin, sending its massive body staggering back several steps.

"Is this the legendary Water Flow Rock Smashing Fist?"

Haojie twisted his neck, his several pairs of eyes looking at Bang, who was assuming the stance of the Flowing Rock Shattering Fist.

"A clever trick, but it's only for people, isn't it? To me, it's like a tickle, the attack doesn't hurt at all."

He spread his arms wide, exerted force, his huge muscles bulged, and his massive body became even more imposing, emanating a terrifying aura that was suffocating.

Bang couldn't help but narrow his eyes.

47. Violating the rules means death!

As the two figures, one large and one small, flashed and clashed in the arena, the heroes' expressions hardened slightly.

"To be able to fight Bang to this extent, that monster's strength should not be underestimated."

"It is indeed very strong."

"Bang's martial arts are very effective on people, but they don't seem to be as effective on weirdos."

Who will win?

……

boom!

A figure was sent flying.

Everyone looked closely and saw it was Banggu.

He was pushed back to the edge of the ring.

"Oh no, falling off the ring means you've lost."

Atomic Samurai's eyes widened.

The other heroes were also keeping their eyes fixed on that direction.

The metal bat gripped his bat tightly, gritting his teeth as he said, "Are we just supposed to stand here and do nothing? Damn it!"

Genos looked at the silver-haired boy in the air, his brows furrowed.

He's finding it increasingly harder and harder to understand this guy named Ron.

Is he a friend or foe?

Saitama, the bald-headed demon king with dead fish eyes, stared at the arena with great interest.

"So that's how it is. This is martial arts."

Tornado stood with Fubuki, arms crossed, watching the scene on the stage. She curled her lip and said, "Bang, that guy, is supposed to be the third-ranked S-class hero, yet he's so useless. He should have been defeated in two or three moves."

"elder sister……"

Fubuki smiled wryly. Even she could sense the power of the monster called Gouketsu. He was undoubtedly a Dragon-level monster capable of destroying several cities single-handedly, and even among Dragon-level monsters, he was considered a strong one.

Normally, such a monster would require several S-class heroes working together to defeat, but now...

Her beautiful eyes looked at the silver-haired boy in the air.

Since it was his decision, he must have his own reasons.

…………

at the same time.

The battle here was also broadcast to all parts of the world via television.

Images of this battle appeared on giant screens in various cities.

"Oh? The arena?"

Garou, who was searching for heroes to hunt in Z City, saw the arena floating in the air and the two people fighting on it on the screen. His eyes widened slightly: "That's... Master Bang. Master Bang is fighting a monster in the arena?"

A smile of excitement gradually spread across the wolf's face.

"How fair it is for heroes and monsters to fight one-on-one in the arena!"

"This is the true battle between good and evil!"

"interesting!!"

The hungry wolf immediately headed in that direction.

…………

Upon witnessing this scene, Sweet Mask, ranked number one in Class A, first contacted the Hero Association. After learning that broadcasting such footage was not part of their plan, but rather a decision made unilaterally by the television station, and that even they could not interfere, she crushed the communicator in her hand.

He stared at the silver fangs on the screen, being beaten down by the monster, veins bulging on his forehead.

"The most important thing for a qualified media outlet is to portray heroes as powerful and admirable. How could they broadcast the ugly side of heroes to the public? Those damned guys at the TV station..."

"Silver Fang, as an S-class hero, you can't even cleanly and efficiently deal with the monster. You're really getting old."

"no way……"

Masked Sweetheart reached out and smoothed her hair back, then put on sunglasses, drove a supercar, and headed towards the no-man's-land of Z City.

………………

After finishing his training, Sonic came to the city to look for the man who had defeated him. He also saw the scene playing on the screen.

He wasn't interested in battles between heroes and monsters.

But the fleeting silver-haired figure on the screen made his eyes widen.

"that is……"

Although his appearance and physique were different, the sense of familiarity made Sonic instinctively think of someone.

That man who defeated him so easily!

"There's no mistake! I've finally found it! Sword Master! Just wait for me, I, Sonic the Hedgehog, am coming to take my revenge on you!"

Sonic vanished from the street in a flash.

…………

KING also saw the image on the TV, but unlike the others, he only glanced at it twice before looking away and going back to playing video games.

The hero's communicator was lying on the ground, beeping softly.

"Anyway, with Ron here, he'll be able to deal with those weirdos soon. I'd only be a hindrance if I went. I'll just pretend I didn't hear it."

…………

This side of the ring.

"it's over!"

The hero unleashed an incredibly powerful downward slash, aimed at Bang, who was cornered.

The surging airflow swept and parted to both sides.

This attack could even split a small mountain in two.

Just now.

Bang shuddered, his clothes burst open, revealing his well-honed, scarred muscles, and he unleashed the full aura of a martial arts master.

"Breathing Technique Upon Waking!"

His eyes gleamed white as he raised his arms, which swung forward like flowing water and snakes, each strike creating a stream of air.

Bang bang bang bang bang bang——

Hundreds of incredibly precise punches landed on the hero's descending leg, deflecting the force and causing the hero's attack to slam into empty space beside him.

"Liu Shui Rock Shattering Fist!"

With a roar from Bang, a knee strike landed heavily on the champion's chin, momentarily stunning it.

Immediately afterwards, Banggu used all his fist energy to transform into flowing water, wrapping around the hero's huge body, using the force to neutralize the opponent's power.

Amidst the wide-eyed stares of heroes and monsters, it was thrown directly off the stage.

Bang.

The hero's massive body crashed to the ground, creating a large crater.
