One-Punch Man (ワンパンマン)

I feel uneasy.

Boy, this place is huge.

Ugh, what is this place? It's so dark and damp.

This place is definitely bad news.

I already knew the Monster Association's hideout was bad news

but this is way creepier than I imagined.

Feels like a monster could attack at any moment.

Hey, King.

RUMBLE RUMBLE

Saitama, where are you?!

- Are you listening to me, King? - Huh?

Even for someone who’s grown too strong

does a dangerous place like this still get your blood pumping?

Too strong?

I doubt that.

There's always someone stronger than you.

Hmm...for the strongest man on Earth, that’s a surprisingly dull thing to say.

Hmph... Is it so selfish to hope that might be true?

As expected. That's how a true warrior should be.

I ought to learn from you.

I DON'T CONSIDER MYSELF A HERO TRAINING? NOT FOR ME (LOL)

TRYING TO CHALLENGE ME? DON'T DO IT

TOO STRONG? I DOUBT THAT

Yeah... Well, I'm not lying...

We should split up into two groups from here.

Right, King?

Uh, um...yeah.

Oh. These guys look like they live here.

Hey...

CRASH CRASH CRASH

ULTIMATE LIFEFORM

This chunk of meat...

If we attacked it together

CHOMP CHOMP CRACK CRUNCH

I thought he would be a hearty meal for us...

But he ate everybody!

Yikes!

What the heck are you?

You're just a human...

Stop! Don't eat me. Nooo!

DRAGON GUMS

Why aren't you moving?

Have you given up?

What's going on?

Superalloy Blackluster. Why are you not fighting back?

Insect God.

When we first met, you told me that...

You're an invincible monster that embodies the power of insects.

That is exactly what I've been striving for.

The ultimate form of insect strength!

Their tough exoskeletons and

their perfectly efficient bodies are impressive...

But the real marvel is that they're almost entirely made of muscle.

And those muscles barely tire

allowing them to stay active for long periods.

That is the perfection I aim for!

I was deeply disappointed that a monster attained it before I did.

But at the same time, I wanted to experience it for myself.

The power worthy of being called the Insect God...

That speed... that terrifying strength...

But...

You're far less impressive than I expected.

And for a so-called insect monster

you lack the black sheen.

What a letdown...

What did you say?

If you think you've grasped my true power you're gravely mistaken—

What a letdown!

STARTLED

This body is nothing more than oversized muscle.

But its performance surpasses yours, Insect God.

And let me warn you.

There are three heroes you must never anger.

The strongest creature on Earth, King.

RUMBLE RUMBLE

If you make him angry, the King Engine will roar

and all evil will be wiped out.

Then there's Tornado, the psychic capable of untold slaughter!

Tick her off, and she'll pulverize you beyond recognition.

Finally, there's me.

Superalloy Blackluster, always gleaming with a dark shine.

Push me too far...

and these muscles start acting on their own.

I see...

You want to know what happens if you anger me?

Even the fists of Garou, the Hero Hunter

who you've all been struggling to defeat, had no effect on me.

My outer shell is an impenetrable armor.

The explosive power of insect muscles is

on a whole different level from you mammals.

In other words, my whole body is a weapon.

I'm going to shred those fake muscles

and feed them to the bugs.

That's reckless.

I'll smash you to bits!!

I told you, that's reckless.

Even I don't know how to inflict a wound on this body.

Hmm.

Unless it's a top-tier monster, my muscles don't get fired up.

Whoa. The ground is shaking hard.

Is someone fighting one of the big shots?

Wow! That's a huge dog!

Oh, I know!

Here you go, doggy.

I'll give you this bone

so take me to the big monster that's making all this noise.

There, there. Good doggy.

Firing at me without warning?

You need to be taught some discipline.

So you're one of the monsters making all this noise?

Sit.

Assault team, are you okay? Respond! What happened?

Damn it. I can't tell what's going on.

Earthquake...? No, a shock wave...?

No high-energy reactions detected in the vicinity...

A shockwave from outside the detection range.

Its power is off the charts.

Which means... that just now was possibly...

Knowing how steadfast Master Saitama is

I wouldn't be surprised if he's already on his way to the hideout.

No way... He took down Pochi with just one punch...?

He still hasn't noticed me.

This is my chance to catch him off guard.

Intense Catstigation!

Hm?

First a dog, now a cat?

My claws! They didn't work!

This guy is bad news.

There's no reason to risk my life for the Monster Association.

I'm outta here, meow!!

Huh? What's his deal?

Oh well, whatever. Guess I'll get going.

That was loud.

Sounds like Pochi's gone quiet up there.

Don't tell me...

Getting worried?

Maybe one of your top monsters got taken out.

So...are you the boss?

Well, well... I'm delighted you've come all the way here.

Welcome to our hideout, Hero...

I figured you were the one I'd have to deal with personally...

Terrible Tornado. The prodigy of supernatural powers.

My name is Gyoro-Gyoro.

I am the strategist of the Monster Association.

And the creator of the new world ruled by monsters.

So basically, you're the boss here, right?

Die.

Is that all you got?

She broke through my barrier?!

Damn it... This could get ugly.

Very well. I won't hold back either.

I'll fight you in my true form!

Tornado! Is this your first time facing a psychic superior than yourself?

Well, have fun.

Super Raging Waves of Gravity.

300 times gravity!

I'll flatten you like a pancake.

Not bad for a high ranker.

Feels pretty good.

But can you apply more pressure on my right shoulder?
