Chapter 525: Feng Ye's Punch
Chapter 525: Feng Ye's Punch
"Mr. Saitama!"
As Saitama was knocked flying into space by Boros' attack, the camera on the aircraft struggled to keep up with his trajectory, and the Hero Association's Child Emperor couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
The executives and staff back at the Hero Association headquarters were equally astonished. Although Saitama had previously repelled a God-level disaster, this disaster was also of God-level intensity, making it impossible to gauge which was more severe.
"Mr. Saitama has a record of fighting in space, so he should be able to turn this around, but..."
The Child Emperor watched Boros, a bead of cold sweat forming on his brow.
Saitama would likely make a comeback, as such an attack probably couldn't defeat him. However, the issue was the time it would take for Saitama to return from space. How could they stall Boros until then?!
"It's all up to you now, King... Eh?"
The Child Emperor drew a breath, turning to look behind him, only to find that King, who had been standing a short distance away, had vanished without a trace! The Child Emperor stood there, mouth agape in astonishment.
"King left a while ago," Zombie Man whispered to the Child Emperor. He had also been planning to leave but was transfixed by the sight of Boros' combat strength skyrocketing after entering his Meteoric Burst form.
After a moment of paralysis, the Child Emperor immediately spoke into his headset, addressing the Association on the other end. "This situation is taking a turn for the worse. Get King back here to provide backup immediately!"
"..." A staff member from the Association acknowledged the instruction but hesitated before adding, "However, it seems that King's assistance may no longer be necessary."
"What do you mean it's not necess..." The Child Emperor began to refute instinctively but trailed off.
Zombie Man and the others beside him also froze, their gazes fixed on the projection, a hint of shock flashing in their eyes.
On the projection, Boros, who had just sent Saitama flying into space, panted heavily. He then turned his head toward Feng Ye and, in the blink of an eye, disappeared from his original spot. Like a bolt of light, he rushed toward Feng Ye, stopping just short of him, and threw a punch directly at his face.
This punch was aimed squarely at Feng Ye's face, and the ensuing shockwave caused visible ripples in the air, distorting space as if it were folding in on itself.
"Oh no..."
Tornado, flying beside Feng Ye, sensed Boros' movement through her esper abilities, but her body simply couldn't keep up, nor could she turn her eyes in time to follow the action.
If one were to slow down the world's speed by countless times, they would see Tornado's eyes slowly turning toward the side, attempting to look at Feng Ye, but Boros' speed far exceeded the rate at which her eyes could move!
Even...
Her esper abilities were not quick enough to react in this moment. If this punch had been aimed at her, she wouldn't have been able to create an esper shield in time to protect herself; she would have been knocked out instantly!
Compared to Tornado, everything in Boros' world seemed to move in extreme slow motion, including Tornado's actions and the movement of her gaze, all of which appeared to be several dozen times slower.
In his Meteoric Burst state, Boros' speed and dynamic vision had increased to levels beyond biological limits. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to control his own speed, which far surpassed the speed of sound and was approaching the speed of light.
But...
Even from his perspective, where the entire world seemed to have slowed down by hundreds or thousands of times, he witnessed a bizarre scene.
Everyone else's movements should have appeared extremely slow, unable to keep up with his speed. Yet, Feng Ye, who stood before him and was about to take a punch to the face, suddenly curled the corners of his lips upward in a slight smirk.
It was as if in a world slowed down by hundreds or thousands of times, a figure suddenly appeared, moving at a normal speed. That sense of dissonance with the world brought a strong impact!
In this world as if time had stopped, Feng Ye casually revealed a smile, tilting his head to the side and effortlessly dodging Boros' unbelievably fast punch.
And immediately after.
With his head still turned, Feng Ye raised his right hand, curling his fingers into a fist, and threw a punch at Boros' approaching face.
"I'm not used to taking hits."
"So..."
Boros watched helplessly as Feng Ye's fist came at him, but his body couldn't make any evasive movements. On one hand, he had put all his strength into the punch he threw at Feng Ye, leaving him in a state where he couldn't change his action, suspended in mid-air.
On the other hand,
Feng Ye's speed was faster than his!
Yes!
In his Meteoric Burst state, Feng Ye's speed surpassed even Boros'!
As Boros' inner world shook violently, the left side of his face was hit by Feng Ye's punch, and his entire cheek caved in, as if half his jaw had been knocked off, and his head twisted.
His forward momentum was abruptly halted, and his entire body slammed downwards.
Boros' body was covered in a dazzling and dense lightning aura, turning into a streak of light that pierced through the ship from top to bottom without any hindrance. With a loud boom, he crashed into the empty street right in front of the Hero Association headquarters.
BOOM!!!
A terrifying explosion spread out, rippling in all directions.
Nearby, Atomic Samurai, Silver Fang, and others who had just dealt with Boros' subordinates were swept up by the aftermath. Each of them waved their arms to block, but only Silver Fang, Superalloy Blackluster, and a few others managed to steady themselves.
The lower-ranked heroes like Sexy Prisoner were swept away by the blast like paper cuttings, unable to even shout as they flew backward.
This was the scene that unfolded before Feng Ye's eyes.
From Tornado's perspective, she didn't see any of Feng Ye and Boros' movements from start to finish. She could only barely sense through her esper abilities that Feng Ye had knocked Boros away, and the speed was beyond imagination. It was so fast that she couldn't even form a complete thought in her mind.
From Child Emperor, Zombie Man, and the Hero Association's perspective, they witnessed the scene captured by Child Emperor's aircraft. Even though the aircraft was equipped with powerful dynamic capture capabilities, slowing down the captured footage by more than ten times, what they saw was still completely unclear.
The only thing they saw was one scene.
In less than a tenth of a second, Boros, transformed into a purple light, rushed towards Feng Ye, then turned ninety degrees with a bang, changing from forward to downward. The light covering his body also changed from purple to blue lightning, piercing through the ship below and crashing into the open space in front of the Hero Association headquarters.
It looked like a glowing ping-pong ball flying towards Feng Ye, who flicked his wrist and knocked it down.
All that was left was the sound of Boros impacting the ground, the massive explosion, and the terrifying aftermath rippling outward.
