One-Punch Man (ワンパンマン)

Hey, Child Emperor...

Can I ask you something?

If you're hungry, you'll have to wait.

Not that!

After we escape from here

you'll make sure to take me to my dad, right?

No, I can't go that far with you.

The other heroes on the surface will take over to protect you, so don't worry.

The other heroes?

You mean they're not Class-S?

What?! No way! They gotta be Class-S.

No way.

You saw me fighting, right?

The enemy is strong.

I have to get back to the battlefield right away and support everyone.

I'm worried about them.

They don't know how to cooperate.

So someone has to be there to lead them.

You're just a kid and you're the leader?

But they're all adults.

Honestly, I wish someone else would take over.

But...

Sorry, this isn't the time to get into that.

Don't worry. I'm the class president, too.

Although I don't go to school much.

Look! We're almost at the exit.

Come on, let's go. Waganma.

Oh... Okay.

You're right.

TOP DRAGONS

This is Child Emperor.

I've successfully linked up with the surface team along with Waganma.

The rescue operation was a success!

I repeat. The rescue operation was a success!

Child Emperor... You are seriously incredible.

Yes, your execution was flawless.

You only think that because you didn't see what happened out there.

We barely made it out alive.

No one's responding.

Hello, is anyone listening?

Are my messages getting through?

Or even if they are, is anyone actually checking them?

Come on, can we wrap this up already...

Sekingal, I did explain how to use the transmitters, right?

Including checking notifications regularly?

Easy now, they might be too busy fighting to look.

This is Zombieman.

Good job, Child Emperor.

It's Zombieman...

This is Amai Mask.

Got it about the hostage. The monsters are no big deal.

I will continue to carry out justice.

Good job, Child Emperor.

This is Pig God. I am currently digesting.

Hm? What's this?

So I press here and talk?

It's Atomic Samurai!

What's this green flashing light?

That's my message.

Let's see now. If I press here...

Oh, the light went off.

Oh! He deleted it. Geez.

Ahh, this is Atomic Samurai.

Well, everyone... If you have time, listen to this message.

I found a child.

What?

The location is... Hmm, where am I...?

Well, never mind. I'll go after him.

Hello? This is Child Emperor. What child?

We lost the connection.

Waganma.

Do you know about this?

So there was another person held captive?

Um... Well... So...

You knew about it?

Y-Yeah... B-But... I just wanted to be saved...

I'm s-s-sorry! Sorry!

I have to go.

Sekingal and the surface team. Please take care of Waganma.

Huh? Don't tell me you're going back down there?

Child Emperor!

You look exhausted. Can you still keep going?

Rescuing Waganma was our priority, and we've accomplished that.

Perhaps it's best to reset...

You don't get it, suit guy.

Now that we know, we got no choice but to go.

I'll help too.

Let us join you too.

No, that isn't necessary.

Let us each fulfill our respective roles.

Class-S...

I want to reach that level someday, but it won't be easy.

You came outta nowhere and tried to cut me.

You trying to pick a fight?

The hard-boiled, yet compassionate hero, Atomic Samurai, has arrived!

Some arrival...

So you're the Atomic Samurai Gyoro-Gyoro was talking about.

BLACK SPERM

You don't look like much, but whatever.

I've been bored out of my mind. Entertain me.

Oh yeah?

But I've got no business with you.

You're underestimating me, aren't you?

Hmm.

You underestimate me.

Yeah. To be blunt, this is going to be a piece of cake.

I've been through countless battles.

I've sliced up dozens of mutated, gigantic freaks like you.

I'm used to it by now.

So you're the type that can split up, huh?

The most annoying kind.

Annoying? You're a fool.

You still think you can win?

I'm a mass of countless versions of me.

No matter how much you cut, rip, beat, crush, or twist me

I just keep multiplying.

You're the fool.

I'll just unleash countless slashes on all of you and win.

Do it if you can. I'll make you weep.

Come on, bring it on. Let's do this.

Atomic...

Slash!!

It's over. You're dead.

What the...?!

He has this much power even after splitting up?

I underestimated him.

This is bad, there's too many!

-So Gyoro-Gyoro had it figured out. -It's no use.

-Just accept it. -We're the worst possible match for you.

Heh. I'll bury you.

The ceiling?!

That shaking...

I wonder how the battle is going.

So you're worried?

About how the other heroes are getting killed?

How did you—?

Maybe they died like this?

DRAGON HOMELESS EMPEROR

Dying instantly without even being able to resist.

So this is how a so-called hero dies?

How pathetic.

I checked out the Hero Association's official website.

The Class-S heroes that are left...

can easily by annihilated by just me!

Wait!

That looks painful.

Blocked at that range?!

Tsk. I was saving this for last...

As expected of one of the top heroes.

Even in death, you refuse to fall.

You must have been quite strong.

Yeah. I don't need a suit that can withstand heavy bombing

armor that can deflect bullets

or an invincible shield that repels any kind of physical attack.

All I need is a spare change of clothes.

And above all, I'm very particular about my boxer shorts.

I have no overwhelming power, no superior physical ability

no devastating weapons.

The only thing I need to win a battle is...

The resolve to fight completely naked.

And that's why boxer shorts are non-negotiable for me.

What are you talking about?

Seriously though, this is no laughing matter.

This monster is too strong.

Hey.

I can't figure out that sneaky, trick-like attack of yours.

What the hell are you?

I'm surprised.

They don't call you Zombieman for nothing.

Being immortal wasn't just a figure of speech, huh?

So you want to know the secret of this light's power?

Fine... I'll tell you how I acquired this power.

Until a month ago, I stayed at a park, living day by day.

I lost my job and got kicked out of my home.

I left human society behind and lived as a recluse.

At a welcome party for new employees

my boss ordered me to dance naked.

The next day, I was fired for sexual harassment.

But when I looked up at the sky

my resentment toward my boss no longer mattered.

The Earth is bigger than any building

and the sky is brighter than any man-made light.

Humans are but insignificant beings.

My home is this vast Earth itself.

And then it hit me...

Humans have strayed from the natural order of Mother Earth

abandoning it to flourish selfishly under our own rules.

The stupidity of humans is staggering.

This is outrageous.

To think these ignorant beings treat me as inferior!

It's unbearable.

Just unbearable.

So unbearable.
