Chapter 149: Yecheng in the One Punch Man Universe
Chapter 149: Yecheng in the One Punch Man Universe
Upon hearing Ranju's words, Yecheng suddenly realized that he, too, was a white-haired character!
The words he had just spoken, in Ranju's ears, sounded like a blatant tease.
"Ranju, don't get the wrong idea! I'm not white-haired... I mean, I am, but my previous statement didn't include me. I'm just a lecher, but it's not that bad. I'm only interested in your body, not in you as a person..."
Before Yecheng could finish his incoherent explanation, he was already on the receiving end of several heavy punches.
"Scumbag! Next time I see Kyoraku Shunsui, I'll tell him everything and let him set you off like fireworks."
Watching Ranju's graceful departure, Yecheng's face was filled with panic. He hesitated, wondering if he should leave Seireitei and go to Liu Hun Jie... no, to the real world to lay low for a while.
However, he was unaware that Ranju, who had left on her own, wasn't actually angry because of his words.
As she turned the corner, the tense expression on her face relaxed, and she even revealed a mischievous smile, muttering to herself, "That Yecheng guy must be scared shitless by now.
Hmph, you wanted to use me? Now I can even save the three days' worth of drinks I promised him.
No, if I use this as leverage, I might even get some more freebies!"
The thought made Ranju quickly compose herself, and she turned back towards the place Yecheng had just been.

Z City
In a large chain supermarket, Yecheng was shopping for supplies and ingredients he needed in the near future.
Due to his infrequent outings, Yecheng usually bought a large quantity of supplies and food, then retreated to his home for his 'cultivation.'
Only when his stock ran out would he reluctantly venture out again to forage for more.
The reason for this was that Z City was incredibly dangerous... no, to be precise, the entire world was perilous, and Z City was especially so! Compared to his experiences in other worlds, Yecheng felt he was the unluckiest guy in the One Punch Man universe.
In other worlds, he was either surrounded by beauties in fantastical settings or living a colorful and blessed life. But here, he was stuck in an extremely dangerous world.
In other worlds, as long as he followed the principle of 'Three Don'ts'—don't wander aimlessly, don't get involved with World Children, and don't provoke villainous bosses—he was generally quite safe.
However, this common sense didn't apply in the One Punch Man universe.
Even if you did nothing but stay at home as a shut-in, one day, a creature known as a 'Monstrosity' might suddenly appear on your balcony, falling from the sky!
These 'Monstrosities' were beings that had abandoned their humanity and existed outside the realm of the human world. Some were mutated humans, some were products of technological intervention, some were born from natural environmental factors, and others were intelligent beings of different species.
Regardless of their origin, Monstrosities harbored immense malice towards ordinary humans, and most of them existed to wreak havoc and destruction.
These so-called 'Monstrosities' seemed like the specialty of this world, popping up unexpectedly in various places.
Sometimes, as you walk down the street, a Monstrosity might suddenly appear out of thin air.
You might be in the middle of creating life with a girl, and the next second, she complains that you're too short, her intense resentment transforming her into a Monstrosity.
It turns out that intimate contact between the same race directly leads to racial fusion between different races on the spot!
In general, the birth of "Monstrosities" is unpredictable, and the location of their appearance is also unpredictable. Living in this world, no matter when or where, you may be attacked by Monstrosities, and it's not that you can stay out of trouble by being low-key.
Night City still feels a lingering fear when recalling the experience from half a month ago.
Since he was transported to this world and has been living here for half a year, he has managed to get by with his original strength.
Until one day, a Monstrosity resembling a cockroach suddenly appeared on Night City's balcony.
The Monstrosity claimed that it was born from the powerful resentment of countless cockroaches killed by humans.
Although its appearance was not remarkable, resembling a cheap mascot costume, it possessed Ghost Rank strength, a mid-high level of power.
During the fight, Night City repeatedly found himself on the brink of death. Fortunately, at the last moment, he was pulled into a mysterious space where he encountered other versions of himself and officially unlocked the power-sharing cheat, ultimately defeating the Monstrosity!
With his newfound power-sharing ability and rapidly increasing strength, Night City did not follow the conventional path of becoming an arrogant powerhouse. Instead, he moved to a new home and continued to live an even more reclusive life.
The reason for this was simple: although his strength had indeed increased significantly in the mysterious space, the One Punch Man universe was already a world with incomprehensibly high power levels!
In the mysterious space, before the appearance of Saiyan Monkeys who could casually emit powerful waves or Saint Fighters who loved wearing Saint Cloths and would destroy a small universe at the slightest provocation, Night City had no capital to survive in this world.
Of course, besides hoping for new powerful figures to emerge in the mysterious space, Night City had also tried to become stronger himself.
Even before the appearance of the mysterious space, he had attempted to do so, as a certain bald-headed powerhouse had achieved greatness through persistent training, becoming a man who could defeat any opponent with a single punch.
As for the so-called "side effects," Night City considered them insignificant.
To gain strength, one must pay a price. How could one become bald and strong if they still had a full head of hair?
However, as it turned out, not everyone was as lucky as Saitama.
Night City's personal experience proved that even with 100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10-kilometer run every day, without air conditioning or eating bananas, he did not go bald like Saitama, nor did he become stronger! In fact, Night City knew the outcome of this so-called "hellish training" from the start.
With his physical qualities, completing the above training was even easier than eating and drinking. How could it possibly make him stronger?
But Night City also wondered if, like Saitama, the limiter within his body was like a membrane that could be broken with a single word.
Unfortunately, he was not the chosen one. After a long "hellish training" of a month, not only did his strength not increase, but he couldn't even perceive any actual improvement.
