Chapter 101: THE DAMN PURI-PURI PRISONER!!!
[Adaptive Nature: Your body will adapt to all extreme environments, including but not limited to super-high temperatures, super-low temperatures, oxygen-free environments, pure oxygen environments, and highly toxic environments. You will also develop adaptability to any form of attack.]
Holy sht!*
King read the skill description again and couldn't help but blurt out a curse.
This meant he could fight in all kinds of extreme conditions, even traverse the stars effortlessly.
Why be the "Strongest Man on Earth" anymore? He should just upgrade to "Strongest Man in Space."
But most importantly, the key to [Adaptive Nature] wasn't just environmental adaptation—it was the adaptability to any form of attack.
This meant whether it was mental attacks, physical attacks, or magical attacks, as long as King wasn't killed instantly, he would gradually adapt to them.
Looking at his two new passive skills, King grinned so wide his mouth almost crooked.
These two skills massively boosted his survivability, practically making him unkillable.
Unless something unexpected happened, there was likely no one left in the One Punch Man world who could kill him. Not even the Bald Demon Saitama.
(Of course, excluding the unknown "GOD," since the original story never revealed the full extent of GOD's abilities.)
"Nice. Maxed out this time. Thanks to the big EXP pack, Boros."
This praise was sincere. If Boros hadn't willingly sacrificed himself, where would King have gotten such awesome rewards?
As expected of the Universe Dominator. The loot drop after death was incredibly generous.
Feeling the majestic power flowing through his body, King's hands itched for a fight.
Time to find the Bald Demon and have a proper brawl.
King sat up abruptly—but immediately lay back down due to the tearing pain in his muscles, returning to his "大" pose, paralyzed on the bed.
Forget it... I'll just lie here for a bit...
Excited by the rewards, King had momentarily forgotten he was still in the weakened state after opening the Gate of Death.
Just then, a brilliant idea flashed in his mind.
Wait! I have a plan!
Psychokinesis surged from his body. King floated into the air, enveloped in a faint green glow, carried by his mind.
This way, his muscles didn't need to exert force, so he wouldn't feel the tearing pain.
This pain only lasts ten minutes anyway. I'll just rely on psychokinesis for these ten minutes.
With that thought, King manipulated his psychokinesis to lift the game controller in front of him, turn on the console, and press the buttons telekinetically.
If an outsider saw this scene, their jaw would drop.
In the eyes of a normal person, a tall blond man was floating in the air like a zombie, with a game controller floating in front of him, buttons clicking furiously on their own.
Just like that, King played the AAA masterpiece Sekiro: Shadows Die Twice for the first time using only his mind.
After half an hour, even King, a master gamer, had veins popping out on his forehead.
"Tch! Why are there so many delayed attacks?! And sometimes the hitboxes don't match the animations at all! I dodged perfectly backward, yet I still got hit!"
"Wait, a scripted death?! Where's the fun in that?!"
"Damn it! I tried to talk to the NPC, why did it auto-lock onto the pig in the pen next to him?!"
Meanwhile, Saitama's Home.
With his shiny bald head, Saitama scratched his butt. Wearing casual home clothes, he lay lazily in front of the TV, watching the news leisurely.
An open bag of tomato-flavored chips sat beside him. He chewed constantly, but his eyes were somewhat vacant.
So boring...
After resolving the alien invasion, the S-Class heroes returned to their respective cities to stand guard, and Saitama was no exception.
Thanks to King's advance prophecy, Boros's arrival hadn't caused many casualties in City A. The only loss was the destruction of numerous high-rise buildings.
But precisely because of this event, the Hero Association's social prestige skyrocketed. People trusted the Association more than the government, and the popularity of S-Class heroes soared.
Especially "One Punch Man" Saitama. When the five S-Class heroes fought Melzargard's five clones separately, only he had one-shotted his opponent with a blank expression.
Thus, Saitama's support in the public eye grew higher and higher. Some even said he was likely the strongest person after King.
Because of this, more and more bald people appeared on the streets. Saitama's fans took pride in being bald, just like Tanktop Master's loyal fans loved wearing tank tops.
Watching the news report recap the alien invasion, Saitama yawned sleepily.
"Really... they said aliens would destroy the Earth, but they didn't feel that strong. King beat their leader to death all by himself."
Hmm, what should I do next?
Saitama rolled over, pondering his schedule.
Go to the supermarket to buy premium beef for hotpot? Or go find King to play games?
In the Bald Demon's cognition, only these two things could spark a little interest.
Especially playing games with King. Although he got destroyed in various creative ways every time, it was during gaming that Saitama could truly feel his rich human emotions.
However, the Bald Demon, currently activating his super-intelligence, didn't realize that a crisis capable of making him lose his cool was quietly approaching.
......
Outside the Prison.
BOOM!
With a loud explosion, the prison wall was sliced open by a sharp hand-chop. Debris flew everywhere.
A slender figure with flowing black hair and delicate features—hard to tell if male or female—leaped out of the hole and sprinted away without hesitation.
His speed was extreme. To the naked eye of an ordinary person, he was just a blur. In minutes, he covered dozens of miles, turning into a black-and-white streak shuttling through the void.
That's right. This was Sonic, who had successfully escaped from prison.
In the howling wind, Sonic almost burst into tears. The humiliation and hatred in his heart exploded completely in this moment.
I finally escaped! I will kill you all! Saitama! King!
AND THE DAMN PURI-PURI PRISONER!!!
