One-Punch Man (ワンパンマン)

Damn it.

What's inside the bandages? It's disgusting.

If you're caught again, you're as good as dead.

Old dude... How did you know I was here?

Because I'm a monster.

This is our chance to earn some points. Kill 'em!

Hm? I'm pretty sure this guys is...

the Hero Hunter...

I got my revenge.

I've got no other business here, so I'm outta here.

If you're tagging along, keep your mouth shut.

W-Wait!

I can't run that fast, old dude.

You're hurt. Are you okay moving around?

Maybe you should hide somewhere and rest.

They've figured out our location.

There's a monster with that kind of power.

If we stand still, we'll be swarmed by assassins.

But luckily, they have their hands full

so they're not putting all their effort into coming after me.

I’ll take out anyone in my way

and exit by the shortest route.

Um...

The thing is... there's another hostage.

He's about my age!

Who cares?

You have to help him!

Listen...

Don't get the wrong idea.

I didn't come to help you.

What the...?

What the hell is that?

You idiot. Don't turn around.

Slowly walk towards me one step at a time...

My heart's racing. My skin's tingling.

This is...definitely a red flag.

This thing is strong.

Fighting it here is the last thing I want.

- Old dude... - Shh! Quiet.

Don't provoke it...

Slowly...

Just move... carefully...

Go...

But don't run...

Alright... It's not coming after us.

As long as we don't show hostility, we're good.

Looks like we can get through this without a fight.

Phew...

At this distance, we should be safe.

So...it's you...

You've decided to join the humans, huh?

This guy... He's that Hero Hunter, right?

Looks like you've gotten a little too full of yourself.

You should've sided with us from the start, Hero Hunter!

As you wish, I'll douse you with toxic chemicals.

So just die already!

This... This guy's tough!

Wow...

Old dude...

You're getting even stronger...

Oh...!

So you really do live up to the name Hero Hunter.

I'm used to being outnumbered.

Yeah, but we're all threat-level Demon!

Hmm...then I must be threat-level Dragon.

Hey, don't get cocky.

Threat-level Dragon is for Monster Association's top brass.

You're nowhere near that level.

Besides, you think you've already won?

Don't be naive!

Die!

I've got the world's hardest horn.

Humph. They're all nothing special...

Ah, crap.

Old dude, it's bad over there.

H-Helllp! Ugh.

I thought it was the world's hardest horn.

Pochi...

This is bad.

You pissed off one our high rankers.

This thing's a high ranker? It's just a dog!

Our hierarchy is based on destructiveness.

So, what now?

DRAGON OVERGROWN POCHI

Whoa, what the hell!

With my regeneration, I should be able to recover.

RUMBLE BOOM

Oh...an earthquake?

I wonder where the epicenter was.

After I read this, maybe I'll go patrol the area.

FLOP

So this is how strong the Monster Associations' high rankers are?

This is threat-level Dragon!!

This is where we split up!

Why the hell are you just standing there?

Hurry up and move it!

N-No way. I'd never survive alone!

- So what? That's not my problem. - But...

You're gonna drag me down and get me killed too!

You got lucky and survived. Now take care of yourself!

Hey, keep your eyes on me!

How's that? Was it even a little...

Too...close...

DEATH

I'm dead!

Damn it. Here, of all places.

I said I wanna fight monster-class heroes.

I never once said I wanna fight monsters!

I wanna drink a cola so bad.

I'm not even halfway done! But this is the end...

Don't get cocky, you damn mutt!

Sit... Dog...gyyy!!

Even my best shot didn't do a thing!

RUMBLE BOOM

SHAKING

I've fallen pretty deep into the lower levels.

Damn it.

I must get back up there.

Ugh...I can't move.

Well, look who dropped in. So you're the intruder.

Well, this is wonderful.

You've lived up to my expectations.

You didn't die, after all.

I'm truly pleased.

The power to move things remotely...

So that's telekinesis, huh?

Gyoro-Gyoro...

How dare you have your goons come after me.

You've made this a huge pain in the ass.

What just happened?

I can't move...

There's no point in resisting.

In such a short time, he has grown so much.

Hey... Release me right now...

Or else...

Let's chat a bit, shall we?

BRUSHING

PULLING

Right now, you're still only a half-monster.

But it's terrifying that you have the physical strength

to be able to endure Pochi's concentrated heat blasts.

But it's still not enough.

I can train you to become the most powerful monster.

You train me?
