Chapter 249: When Did I Become the Top Hero?
Chapter 249: When Did I Become the Top Hero?
Lord Boros had originally not wanted to use this move, as he craved a thrilling and exhilarating battle.
Using such a technique against an opponent would result in their annihilation, leaving no other possibility.
But Saitama's strength was truly extraordinary, so powerful that Boros couldn't see a glimmer of hope for victory.
After finally encountering such a formidable opponent, Boros didn't want to lose so easily!
"Take this, my most powerful technique—Celestial Roar Cannon!"
Boros gathered all his energy, forming a massive pillar of energy that erupted from his body!
The colossal energy pillar resembled an aurora, nearly a hundred meters in diameter, and the destructive aura emanating from it made it clear that Boros wasn't joking.
If this strike landed on the Earth's surface, the entire planet might very well be blown to bits!
Standing atop the spacecraft, the bald-headed hero, the first to face the oncoming energy shockwave, donned a serious expression and tightly clenched his fist, covered by a red plastic glove.
"Deadly Serious Punch!"
The massive shockwave pillar, emanating a terrifying aura, collided with the vacuum fist pressure. Despite the million special effects enhancing the Celestial Roar Cannon, it wasn't the dominant force. Instead, upon impact, it shattered like glass under pressure, cracking inch by inch.
As Boros watched this scene before him in disbelief, his figure gradually became engulfed by blinding white light.
Saitama's "Serious Punch" not only shattered Boros's Celestial Roar Cannon but also, with its remaining momentum, carved a vast canyon into the ground, splitting the sky's clouds in half and giving Mother Earth a center-parted hairstyle.
Boros, who bore the brunt of the attack, was now blasted out of City A and into the outskirts, and by some cruel twist of fate, his landing spot was near where Fubuki had taken the Night City for refuge.
When Fubuki saw the falling figure in the sky and recognized it as Boros, her face was filled with shock. Nonetheless, her first instinct was to protect the Night City behind her.
Although the Night City had regained consciousness, its strength was completely depleted, and it didn't even have the energy to treat its own injuries, making it impossible to engage Boros.
"Don't worry, his condition is worse than mine... no, he's almost dead."
Boros's body remained intact at this moment, but that didn't fool the Night City, who possessed 'Aura Perception'. It could sense that Boros's aura had weakened to the point of resembling a mayfly, a stark contrast to the powerful aura he had exuded earlier.
"He's right," Boros continued. "Even if you leave me be, I'll probably die soon.
The core that gathers my entire body's energy was shattered just now. I never imagined his strength would reach such heights.
And what surprises me even more is that, before my death, I get to see you again."
"Young warrior, I think I finally understand what you said at the beginning. In front of him, there's no difference between you and me.
It's a shame I won't get the chance to witness the future you spoke of, nor will I ever know your names..."
Before Boros could finish his last words, his energy-depleted body began to wither and crumble, turning to dust and scattering with the wind.
"The bald man who defeated you is called Saitama, and I am known as Yecheng. I regret not being able to fight you when I was at my full strength."
Whether Boros heard Yecheng's final words or not, the strongest monster closest to "God-Class" in the One-Punch world had indeed met his end.
After Boros was taken down, the three remaining powerful combatants of the Dark Matter Pirates were also defeated one after the other by the gathered heroes.
Meruzagurudo, the alien monster with five heads, was the last of the three Dragon-Rank combatants. Each of his five heads possessed individual consciousnesses, and he could split up to fight. Moreover, if his "core" was not shattered, he had the ability to regenerate indefinitely.
In terms of overall strength, Meruzagurudo was likely the strongest among the Dark Matter Pirates, aside from Boros himself.
However, he met his end at the hands of Silver Fang, Atomic Samurai, and Metal Bat, who joined forces to defeat him.
Gloribas and Gourudan Xiupu, who had fought with Tornado, were also taken down. Gourudan Xiupu was later killed by Tornado's psychic power, his body compressed into a small ball like a takoyaki.
As for Gloribas, he fell to Saitama's Little Police Dog Hero and other S-Rank Heroes.
With Boros and the three powerful combatants defeated, the remaining alien monsters of the Dark Matter Pirates, although still numerous, no longer posed a significant threat.
These minions, with their large numbers but low quality, were easily dispatched by the S-Rank Heroes in an instant.
More than half of the monsters were killed by Tornado alone. She simply enveloped the entire battlefield with her psychic power, causing the alien monsters, who were still fighting, to float up in confusion.
Then, with a sense of fear squeezing their bodies, the air above them erupted like fireworks, and large blood-red blossoms exploded in the sky.
Compared to "Silver Fang" and "Atomic Samurai," who fought with their physical prowess, Tornado, a psychic-type "mage," had an easier time clearing the battlefield.
Numbers held little meaning before her as she used her psychic powers to crush the monsters, who had little resistance against her abilities, as if they were mere insects.
When the last alien monster fell to Blizzard, who had rushed back to the scene, all the heroes present erupted in cheers!
For they had won a battle that seemed impossible to win, and it was the Earth's heroes who emerged victorious! Although City A was left in ruins, and there were casualties, it was undeniable that their performance against a disaster of this magnitude was exceptional.
This was a "God-Class" disaster capable of destroying the world, but through their united efforts, they had survived and claimed the final victory!
"How is our greatest hero, Hell Frost?
In a situation like this, if the protagonist doesn't announce the victory, the rest of us won't dare to speak up."
No one in the crowd dared to contradict Sique Leader's words, not even the proud Tornado or the other S-Rank Heroes.
Having fought against the three powerful combatants of the Dark Matter Pirates, they knew all too well how strong the leaders were, and they could only imagine the strength of the alien leader.
The commotion from the recent battle was also felt by them, and it was indeed astonishing.
