Chapter 78: The Power of a Dragon-level Monster!
The dark element began to flow rapidly in Bane's body instinctively, repairing his injuries.
Carnage Kabuto seemed to be struggling after this attack. After all, he really rushed out against Bane's Elbaf's spear, his injuries were extremely serious!
But it was obvious that Carnage Kabuto also possessed a very strong self-regeneration ability. In just a few breaths, his originally bloody body had quickly begun to heal itself.
"We are all dead. In this rampage state, that guy possesses the so-called 'dragon level' or even higher strength. No one can stop him." Dr. Genus said in a panic.
The reason why he said "above Dragon level" was because in this rampage state, he had never truly successfully tested the limits of Carnage Kabuto.
At this moment, Bane's figure fell from the wall. He knelt on one knee on the ground in a somewhat embarrassed manner, with black smoke coming out of his body.
"Still alive? What's that black smoke on his body?" Dr. Genus seemed a little surprised that Bane was still alive.
It was also at this time that Carnage Kabuto's sanity completely collapsed. He let out a roar like a wild beast, and then suddenly rushed towards Bane.
"Dark Tide!" Bane pressed one hand on the ground and shouted loudly.
In an instant, rich dark elements burst out from his body like a surging tide, spreading in all directions with surging momentum.
Carnage Kabuto, who was originally rushing towards Bane, seemed to sense some crisis at this moment. Even though he was irrational, his instinct made him make a choice. At the moment when his figure was about to step into the dark element, he stopped the movement, and quickly distanced himself from Bane. In an instant, he appeared on the edge wall of the battle room, hanging on the wall with one hand, looking at Bane and the gradually spreading dark frenzy with some confusion.
At this moment, Carnage Kabuto instinctively felt that as long as he stepped into the darkness, he would never be able to get out!
However, the darkness was about to cover the entire place, and for a moment, Carnage Kabuto was a little overwhelmed, not knowing what to do next.
This was also the disadvantage of his loss of sanity. Even though his strength was extremely strong now and had improved a lot, he could only react based on instinct. His original combat thinking had completely collapsed!
"What is that?" Saitama asked curiously.
"You can think of it as a superpower, just like my thunder power," Zoro explained.
Since he met Bane until now, Zoro had never seen him lose whenever Bane used this dark power!
At this moment, Zoro also felt that Bane was going to win. He had no idea how Carnage Kabuto, who only had brute force, could break through the darkness that could devour everything.
In particular, at least so far, in this world, Zoro had not found a power system that could resist devil fruit users with special abilities like haki.
Carnage Kabuto hanging on the wall with one hand seemed to be making his last struggle. He kept punching the air, creating shock waves and attacking Bane's position, as if he wanted to kill Bane with this far-reaching attack method.
However, the powerful shock wave couldn't get close to Bane at all and was swallowed up by the power of darkness without even a splash.
At this moment, Bane's injuries seemed to have been healed by the dark element. Yes, as Bane became more and more proficient in mastering the Dark-Dark Fruit, his speed in absorbing injuries gradually became stronger, and he could complete self-healing in a short time.
Standing up from the ground, Bane looked at Carnage Kabuto that was about to be completely surrounded and swallowed by the darkness with a complicated look. After a moment, he said, "I lost, Saitama, let's change."
As soon as the words fell, the overwhelming dark tide quickly flowed back and poured into Bane's body again.
At the same time as the darkness returned, Carnage Kabuto instinctively launched an attack, and pounced directly on Bane with lightning speed.
However, there was someone who was faster than him, and that was Saitama!
The heavy punch of Carnage Kabuto, which was enough to severely injure Bane, stopped in an instant. Saitama stood in front of Bane at some point, and casually caught the fist of Carnage Kabuto with one hand. He looked at Bane and said, "Didn't you about to win just now?"
"I've always been proud of my physical fitness. Before this, I just wanted to use pure strength to win, so after I used this ability, I had already lost." Bane said softly.
In fact, if he really had to use all means, even Zoro could at least fight Carnage Kabuto to a draw. After all, as of now, Carnage Kabuto had no means to resist elementalization. Even under continuous thunder attacks, he might really lose to Zoro.
As for Bane, Carnage Kabuto was indeed strong, but not strong enough to break through his dark power. Once it completely devoured the entire battle room, Carnage Kabuto could only be sealed in the dark space and make useless struggles.
You can win, but this kind of winning is meaningless.
A fierce fight with fists and flesh had already satisfied Bane. The only regret was that the strength and physical fitness that he was proud of were ultimately no match for Carnage Kabuto in its rampage state.
And this was actually a good thing. Perhaps Bane himself had not realized before that he had been going smoothly all the way and his mentality had become a little inflated. He did not know when he had developed an advantage as an "outsider," and seemed to "underestimate" everyone. Even though he had probably guessed that he could not beat Carnage Kabuto in such a fist-to-flesh confrontation, he still had a kind of inexplicable arrogance.
He couldn't tell where this arrogance came from. Until just now, when Carnage Kabuto confronted Elbaf's spear and punched him into the wall, Bane seemed to have truly recognized himself.
It seemed that at this moment, he seemed to understand what Zoro had said to Wiper before.
Admitting one's own shortcomings was also a kind of courage. Only with this regret could one climb to a higher level.
He clearly came to this world to seek greater strength, and he had clearly thought about going to Bang's dojo to study, but he never adjusted his mindset. Even when talking about Bang, a strong man who was worth learning from, he became arrogant unconsciously, and unilaterally believed that the other party was not enough to pose a threat to him. What kind of mentality was this?
There were so many thoughts in his mind, but reality was just a moment.
After fighting with Carnage Kabuto, Bane seemed to have a lot of insights, and he needed some time to digest these insights and understand himself clearly.
Without commenting on Bane's "theory of victory and defeat," Saitama simply nodded, and then looked with interest at Carnage Kabuto whose fist he had pinned down.
At this moment, even though Carnage Kabuto had lost his mind, he still instinctively felt the fatal crisis. Fear arose in his heart, and driven by this fear instinct, he wanted to retract his fist.
But, obviously, he couldn't do it.
"Sorry, it's for my TV!" Saitama said softly.
Then he punched Carnage Kabuto in the chest. The strong body that had been able to withstand Bane's attack was blown into pieces by this seemingly ordinary punch.
Carnage Kabuto, dead!
This attack stunned Dr. Genus, Zoro and Genos.
The power of Carnage Kabuto could be seen from this dilapidated fighting room. Even such a ruthless character was finished off with just one punch from Saitama. How could the others not be shocked?
Even though Zoro had prepared himself mentally, he still couldn't calm down at this moment. How strong was this bald guy!?
Dr. Genus, who had studied evolution for his entire life, felt such a sense of powerlessness at this moment that he couldn't even describe it, so much so that he even wanted to give up his career.
Human beings didn't need him to meddle in their affairs!
"Hey, I won, don't forget to compensate me for my TV!" Saitama looked at Dr. Genus and said.
At this time, the doctor's legs had gone limp, and he leaned against the door, saying in a dull tone, "It doesn't matter what happens."
