Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

"Because the S-class hero, the cyborg, was also with you just now."

King looked surprised: "Genos-kun?"

"Hmm, he probably didn't make a move because he wanted to see how strong you are. After seeing what happened just now, he probably thinks you're very strong."

"Huh? Isn't that a bad thing?!"

"Don't panic. You've been lying to them for so long, it's too late to explain now. You might as well let them misunderstand you even more."

"……terribly sorry."

The two walked out of the alley and headed in one direction along the deserted street.

Sudden.

The sky darkened.

King paused for a moment, then looked up.

A huge, strange bird was seen swooping down towards them at an extremely fast speed.

"what!!"

King was so startled that he fell backward and landed on his bottom.

Ron raised his hand.

Bang.

The enormous head of the monstrous bird slammed into his raised palm.

boom!

A whirlwind spread outwards from Ron's feet.

Despite being extremely small compared to the strange bird, he stood upright and motionless.

A cold glint flashed in Ron's heterochromatic vertical pupils behind his sunglasses.

"You blind fool."

"Die."

next second.

The giant bird suddenly swelled up and then exploded like a balloon.

Blood rained down.

Not a single drop could touch Ron; they were all blocked by an invisible force.

“Ron…”

King collapsed to the ground, staring blankly at the back of the silver-haired boy in front of him.

Amidst the rain of blood, he seemed to see again the demon king who sat atop the throne of bones, the same demon king he had seen in the illusionary world that day.

Ron turned to him and smiled brightly, "Let's go, let's go to your house to play games."

………………

In a mountain forest.

"Wind Blade Kick!"

With a sharp shout, a blade of wind slashed through several trees.

The large trees snapped in two with a sharp sound, leaving perfectly smooth cuts.

Sonic, dressed in a ninja battle suit, landed on the ground and inserted the blade in his hand into the scabbard on his back.

He opened his eyes, his gaze sharp and piercing.

"After cultivating for so long, it's finally time."

He looked at a large tree in front of him, with an abstract portrait hanging on its trunk, which could be vaguely made out to be a person.

"Sword Master, this time I will definitely defeat you!"

……

The uninhabited area of ​​Z city.

Sweet Mask, sporting a new hairstyle, has returned.

He met that guy here last time and tasted defeat.

Afterwards, he went to Springbeard and the heroes who were present at the J City incident, and based on their descriptions, he confirmed the identity of the man next to Hellish Blizzard that day.

"There's no mistake, that guy is the Sword Master."

"Hellfire knew his identity, but she didn't report it to the association. What is she planning?"

Sweet Mask walked through the deserted area, lost in thought.

Does Tornado know about this?

While he was thinking.

On the street not far away, Genos and Saitama were carrying things back from outside.

Sweet Mask also saw them.

Cyborgs and...that newly promoted B-class hero?

An S-class character is getting so close to a B-class character...

He narrowed his eyes and walked toward them with a cold gaze.

"Do we really need to buy so many, teacher?"

"Of course, there's a big sale today."

"But there's no need to buy so much, it'll last for many days."

"It's okay, eating more seaweed is good for your hair."

Genos glanced at Saitama's bald head.

"Jenos, what do you mean by looking at my head?"

"No, it's nothing..."

"Genos."

Upon hearing the sound, Genos and Saitama turned their heads and saw Sweet Mask blocking their way.

"Is it you again? What's up?"

Genos said coldly.

"You've completely ignored all my advice."

Sweet Mask said coldly, "As an S-class hero, you should act like an S-class hero—powerful and beautiful, not hanging out with a B-class hero all day."

He pointed at Genos, his eyes cold: "If you can't do it, I'll kick you off S-class."

"Teacher, could you please get this for me?"

Genos handed the bag in his hand to Saitama.

He clenched his fist and glanced sideways at Sweet Mask: "Perfect, I've been wanting to get back at you for a while now. If you can do it, give it a try."

41. Timely

Genos and Sweet Mask had a long-standing feud, and this encounter reignited their pent-up resentment, leading to a fight in the street.

After several equipment upgrades, Genos's strength has increased even further, while Sweet Mask's strength is also remarkable.

The two figures flashed across the street, sparks flying, and their punches sent gusts of wind through the air.

As the two continued to clash.

The streets also gradually fell apart.

Saitama glanced at it a few times, but wasn't very interested. He picked up his things and headed towards his own building.

"Genos, remember to come back soon."

Genos nodded to Saitama from mid-air: "Yes, Saitama-sensei."

Sweet Mask leaped into the air and delivered a sharp side kick to him.

Genos flipped over, and flames gathered in his palm.

"Incinerator!"

Rumble!

at the same time.

Ron has arrived at King's house.

The two picked up the controllers and started playing the game King had just bought.

"King, although your strength is about the same as Ant's, your gaming skills are indeed quite strong."
