Chapter 527: The God Tree Pain Steps In
Chapter 527: The God Tree Pain Steps In
An indescribable power.
This thought arose in the minds of all the S-class heroes of the Hero Association, including the Child Emperor and Tornado, as well as the civilians witnessing this spectacle through the broadcast.
Strangely, there was no outburst of cheering, only a profound silence, a sense of awe, and reverent gazes as the initial shock gradually faded.
Step. Step. Step.
In this hushed atmosphere, the dazzling white sword in Feng Ye's palm vanished, and he calmly strode forward in the direction where Boros had fallen.
Boros's body, which had been cleaved in two, hadn't perished yet. After writhing for a moment, the halves reconnected, but his entire body had turned pallid, and his energy fluctuations had become extremely weak, indicating that he had reached his limit.
"Prophecies are truly unreliable..." Boros struggled to prop up his body and gazed at the approaching Feng Ye. His voice was faint as he spoke, "It only prophesied the existence of someone who could match my strength, but it failed to predict the presence of someone far stronger than me. This battle must have been a breeze for you."
Feng Ye shook his head calmly and replied, "No, it did make me serious."
Boros, unleashing his ultimate technique, was indeed worthy of Feng Ye's full attention. If Boros was akin to a presence similar to Saitama, with his regular attacks comparable to the power of the Star Destroying Roar, then they were on par in terms of raw strength.
Boros's power surpassed Lily's but fell slightly short of Feng Ye's level.
"I want to know your name..." Boros said, looking at Feng Ye.
Feng Ye smiled faintly and was just about to speak when he suddenly sensed something. He paused and took a step back.
Boom!!!
Just as Feng Ye retreated, a streak of light descended from the sky and crashed precisely where Feng Ye had been standing.
This impact caused half of the spaceship to lose its balance, tilting and toppling to one side amid a deafening roar, sending dust and shockwaves in all directions.
Feng Ye stood unwavering on the tilting spaceship, his body showing no signs of instability. The dust and shockwaves that blew towards him had no effect on his stance.
Within that cloud of dust, a shiny head stood out—none other than Saitama, returning from space! Aside from the dust covering his body, Saitama showed no signs of injury, not even a drop of blood or a single strand of hair out of place.
"Ah, I'm back," Saitama said, looking around. He turned to Boros and raised his fist. "Alright, let's continue our fight... Huh? What's wrong?"
Boros: "..."
Having withstood Saitama's attack, being punched off the planet, and returning unscathed was a testament to Saitama's monstrous power.
Boros inhaled sharply and tightened his fist again, causing the dull gray skin to glow with a faint white light once more. Determination flashed in his lone eye as he declared, "I must defeat both of you!"
He mustered his remaining energy, attempting to launch a final assault.
However, just as he was about to act, the void behind him silently ripped open, revealing a black spatial portal. A white tail suddenly lashed out from within the portal.
Saitama: "!"
Tornado: "!"
Child Emperor: "!"
The S-class heroes, most of whom believed the battle was over, were taken aback for a moment before their expressions changed drastically.
Another Disaster-level God—the Mono-eye Tyrant!
The tail that was whipped out instantly wrapped around Boros's body and dragged him into the pitch-black passage.
Saitama briefly stumbled but quickly regained his composure and tried to give chase. However, he ended up lunging at empty air as the spatial passage disappeared without a trace.
Rumble, rumble, rumble.
Stumbling forward, Saitama stumbled a few steps and landed at the edge of the spaceship.
From the moment the passage from Yomi Hirasaka opened to when God Tree Pain used its tail to capture Boros, the whole incident happened in the blink of an eye, without much noise. Yet, it stirred up a storm in the minds of Child Emperor and the executives of the Hero Association.
A Disaster-level God has taken away another Disaster-level God!
This development far exceeded their expectations!
"This is bad... This is very bad..."
A thin layer of cold sweat formed on Child Emperor's forehead.
No one could imagine what would happen if two Disaster-level Gods joined forces or if one absorbed the other. Either scenario would undoubtedly lead to unimaginable terror!
Far from being resolved, the crisis had transformed into an even greater threat!
As their minds raced, Child Emperor and the members of the Hero Association couldn't help but gasp—this was the true power of Disaster-level Gods!
Even when defeated, they were not easily eradicated. This was true for the previous Mono-eye Tyrant, and it was true for Boros as well. They were indeed in a league of their own, far beyond Dragon-level threats!
If it weren't for this exceptional power,
they wouldn't qualify to be defined as Disaster-level Gods!
"What's going on?"
Saitama, looking at the vanished spatial passage, had a literal lightbulb moment as he clenched his fists in frustration and addressed the empty void.
However, he had only flown out of the Earth-Moon system and crashed into the asteroid belt, and he immediately jumped back. But upon his return, before he could even make a move, things suddenly took this unexpected turn?!
At this moment, Saitama felt like he had just bitten into a delicate pastry, only to find a cockroach inside as he was about to take a big bite.
He felt utterly disgusted.
As Saitama struggled with his negative emotions, Tornado, who had been briefly stunned, snapped back to reality and grit her teeth.
"Hey, with your speed, you could have stopped him from escaping!"
The speed at which the tail was whipped out wasn't particularly fast. With their speed, both Feng Ye and Saitama should have been able to stop it. Yet, neither of them managed to do so!
Unbelievable!
Despite possessing such immense power, they had botched the job! Not being able to defeat a single monster, Tornado felt like pulling her hair out at this moment.
Feng Ye glanced at Tornado and said, "Don't randomly shift the blame. Your psychic powers could have stopped it too. Why didn't you make a move?"
Tornado clenched her small fists and replied, "I was waiting to see what you two would do..."
Feng Ye shrugged and said, "I stopped because I saw Mr. Saitama returning."
Tornado silently turned her gaze towards Saitama.
With a dark expression, Saitama warned, "Don't look at me like that, or I'll flatten you."
