Konoha: I, Naruto, will eat the Forest-Forest Fruit!

After the unlicensed rider left.

The Vest Venerable One finally came to his senses.

He sat up abruptly.

"Ah~!"

However, such a large movement would naturally aggravate the wound.

The Vest Venerable gasped and lay back down.

"Don't be impatient!"

"Stay calm, stay calm... Naruto Uzumaki is also an S-class hero, he'll have plenty of opportunities in the future... We can't let anyone look down on us."

After taking a deep breath, Venerable Vest calmed the shock in his heart.

"Huh?"

"Not here?"

Just as the Venerable Vest was pondering.

A bald man carrying bananas arrived to visit the patient.

The Vest-Wearing Venerable frowned.

He remembered this person; he was very strong... It's said that he was the real King.

"The unlicensed rider has left."

"I see... Well, it's the same." Saitama scratched his head, then sat down on the bed next to Tank Top Master.

They took out the bananas that were originally brought as a gift and ate them.

He also handed one to the Vest Venerable.

Tank Top Venerable: "..."

This guy... really doesn't play by the rules.

"In that case, please tell me some details."

"The newspaper only said that you guys got beaten up... I remember, there was an S-class hero... yeah, Tanktop Master, who got beaten up the worst."

The Tank Top Venerable's eyes widened. "That's me! I am the Tank Top Venerable!"

"And also, revise the ending for me!"

"It was Tanktop Venerable who held on until the end. What do you mean by being beaten the worst?!"

The Vest Venerable One was originally a good-natured person.

The bald man almost broke his guard with just one sentence.

Saitama handed him a banana.

The Vest Venerable was taken aback, then subconsciously took it.

"Thanks... hiss~!!!"

This subconscious movement immediately aggravated the wound.

These two undeserved calamities brought tears to the eyes of the Venerable Vest.

However, when I looked back at Saitama's smiling face...

After thinking about it, forget it.

Regardless of Saitama's strength, there is one thing that is enough to greatly increase Tanktop Master's tolerance for him.

That's for sure; this bald guy seems to have a good relationship with Naruto Uzumaki.

Before you've successfully become his apprentice, it's best to avoid provoking him, lest this bald man secretly injure you.

"Then please tell me about yesterday's battle."

Saitama slightly suppressed his smile.

He also realized that it wouldn't be good to laugh too much while the other person was still lying in a hospital bed.

Upon hearing this, Venerable Vest sighed.

To say it again... for him right now, it's like reopening old wounds.

......

"I don't know if Silver Fang can defeat that humanoid monster called Garou..."

"If no one comes to defeat him, the impact will only grow larger."

"A human who claims to be a monster... does things that normal people wouldn't do, like hunting heroes."

"That's a major problem that could threaten public order!"

"I can't let this go on forever, and I want to recover as soon as possible... but given the current situation, it's clear that I can't do that."

"Perhaps we'll need to deploy a few S-class heroes."

As he spoke, Tank Top Master looked at Saitama.

"Naruto Uzumaki can definitely solve this problem... If he can't, then I'm afraid we'll have to go find Silver Fang Bang, or that ridiculously strong psychic brat."

Saitama paused for a moment upon hearing "superpowered kid".

He then waved his hand and said, "The superpowered brat is with Naruto now... As for this matter..."

Saitama stood up.

"Hero Hunting... Now that I've defeated an S-rank hero, I guess it's about time it was my turn!"

Tank Top Venerable: "..."

I know you might be very strong, but... is it really necessary to talk about yourself like that?

Ok? !

Suddenly, Saitama turned and left.

Tank Top Master was once again dumbfounded by Saitama's actions.

this...

The fruit brought to visit a patient...not only did they eat it themselves, but they also took the leftovers with them?

What kind of operation is this?

creak-

Even after Saitama closed the ward door, Tank Top Master still hadn't come to his senses.

On the other side, after Saitama went out, he turned around and came to room 508.

"Yo~"

"It's from the old man's place... his name is Chako, right?"

"I just happened to drop by to see you~"

Saitama waved and grinned at Chalan, who was covered in bandages.

"It's Chalanzi!"

"It's not tea!"

"Haha, don't worry about the details, are you alright?" Saitama sat down naturally, then skillfully put down the banana and peeled one for himself.

"Can you tell I'm alright?!"

Chalan was furious.

He was wrapped up like a mummy, and this kid still asked if he was okay... He didn't even recognize me when we met yesterday... How annoying!

Saitama ate a banana and curiously poked Chalanko's foot, which was wrapped in a large bandage.

"Why did you come to visit me...? It's disgusting..." Chalanzi turned her head away, not wanting to look at Saitama.

"Oh, don't say that! Here's a big banana for you!"

Then, Saitama faced expressions of pity.

"You got caught up in the hero hunt and got beaten up, didn't you?"

"How pitiful."

Chalanzi quickly said, "No! I originally wanted to confront them head-on!"

Finally, after a chaotic conversation...

Chalanzi took out a ticket.

"Please... give this to Naruto."

"Genos is too conspicuous... and you're bald... so we'll have to ask Naruto for help."

"However, don't underestimate this conference."

"If you win the championship, you'll receive 300 million yen!"

Saitama was completely stunned.

My mind is filled with thoughts of 300 million yen.

Chalanzi warned from behind.

Unexpectedly, Saitama walked away without looking back.

......

Meanwhile, in a corner of the city, Garou began his hero hunting operation against A-rank heroes.

The sky was getting dark.

Naruto originally intended to take Tatsumaki and Fubuki with him when he went out.

Unexpectedly... both of them stayed in bed.

Of course, another reason is that it's difficult to walk.

Naruto didn't press them, asked what they wanted to eat that night, and then went out.

On the dimly lit street.

Naruto strolled along, carrying a vegetable basket.

But then three people walked up in front of them.

A sleazy, Mediterranean-looking man was holding the hands of two teenage girls, one on each side.

The three people's conversation reached Naruto's ears.

"I heard... the Hero Association makes a lot of money, right?"

No sooner had the woman finished speaking than the Mediterranean man said displeasedly, "How could you say such a stupid thing?"

"Because the association's funding mainly comes from public donations."

"That money was used meaningfully for maintaining peace."

As he spoke, the Mediterranean man raised his hand and rubbed his index and middle fingers together.

"Maintaining peace requires luck and money...so, don't ask such foolish questions again."

"Besides, we're almost out of money, how could we possibly earn more?"

The two teenage girls seemed to understand but not quite.

One of the large waves lifted the bag in her arms to her chest.

It happened to be the height of the forehead of this middle-aged Mediterranean man.

"Eh~"

"So, you bought this bag for me, also for the sake of peace?"
