Starting as a pirate, he rose to become the strongest Shinigami in Soul Society.

Chapter 76 The Invitation of the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle!

A mountainous area on the outskirts of Z city.

Led by the armored gorilla, Bane and his group arrived at the House of Evolution without any problems.

On the surface, this place looks ordinary, with only a few-story building. But in reality, this above-ground building is a cover; the core area of ​​the House of Evolution is underground!

In the original story, the building didn't serve any purpose at all; Genos simply blew it up with a single shot. Then, they found an underground entrance beneath the ruins and went inside to meet Dr. Genos.

This time it's completely different. Bane came here to "join" the House of Evolution, not to destroy it.

"The doctor is upstairs," the gorilla said after opening the base's door.

Bane glanced at him and said, "Think carefully before you speak. This is your only chance."

The next moment, the gorilla immediately backed down and changed his tune, saying, "The doctor is downstairs. Actually, the upstairs area is just a decoy and a trap. The core area of ​​our House of Evolution is all underground, with several floors. I'll take you there."

Meanwhile, the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle has been unsealed and has killed many of Dr. Genus's clones; its bloodlust has been activated.

After the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle calmed down a bit, Dr. Genus approached it and began to communicate with it.

"How is the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle doing lately?" Dr. Genus asked, forcing himself to remain calm.

Right now, a giant rhinoceros beetle-shaped monster was easily tearing off his shackles one by one.

"There's nothing good or bad about it," the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle said jokingly.

After a brief pause, his expression immediately turned fierce, and he approached Dr. Genus with an extremely intimidating demeanor, saying, "You guys are really something, actually locking up the House of Evolution's top combatant deep underground."

"There's nothing we can do. Your mental state is too unstable, and we can't control you," Dr. Genus said in a deep voice.

"Control me?" The Asura Rhino Beetle grinned maliciously. "Hey, don't get the wrong idea. I'm the perfect embodiment of the new humanity you've been pursuing. I'm a being far superior to you. You should be listening to me!"

Faced with such questioning, Dr. Genus remained silent. After a moment, instead of arguing with the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle, he changed the subject and said, "Time is of the essence. There are some things I want you to hear. Even if you kill me, it doesn't matter. After all, we have plenty of substitutes."

The rhinoceros beetle, who was originally preparing to kill Dr. Genus, raised an eyebrow slightly and said, "Oh? What do you want to say?"

"There's a sample I really want to get my hands on, but that guy is very strong. All the other works have failed. Only you can defeat him, and he's here now," Dr. Genus prepared to explain the current situation.

However, the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle had no interest whatsoever. He only heard the comment that "the opponent is very strong." At the same time, he seemed to sense something, and the smile on his ferocious face grew even stronger.

"They've indeed come. Four have come, but you only want one, right?" said the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle.

"I'd prefer to have them all," Dr. Genus said.

"Which one do you want most?" The Asura Rhinoceros Beetle didn't give the professor a chance to bargain.

Hearing this, Dr. Genus gritted his teeth and said, "The bald one!"

"Alright, I'll kill the rest!" the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle sneered.

As soon as he finished speaking, he smashed down the prison door and disappeared into the depths of the corridor.

At the same time, at the end of the dimly lit corridor, Zoro suddenly spoke up: "They're here!"

A smile appeared on Bane's lips as he said, "Such a powerful aura."

Indeed, at this moment, an incredibly powerful aura and killing intent emanated from the corridor. The other party's undisguised demeanor undoubtedly represented his extreme confidence.

The next instant, the figure of Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle burst out from the shadows of the corridor. His gaze flashed over Bane, Zoro, Genos, and Saitama, and then he determined that the bald Saitama was to be kept, while the others could be killed directly.

Without wasting any words, he continued moving, charging directly towards the four men.

Genos immediately assumed a defensive stance, but it was useless. The speed of the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle was too fast. It immediately delivered an elbow strike, instantly hitting Genos. The powerful force of the strike made it impossible for Genos to resist, and he was blasted into the specially designed sturdy wall next to him. His newly repaired mechanical body was instantly damaged.

The Asura Rhino Beetle, who had just killed Genos, didn't pause for a moment before locking onto Zoro as his second target. At high speed, he suddenly braked, his feet carving two furrows into the solid metal ground. In the instant he stopped charging, he kicked Zoro hard.

With a bang, lightning exploded, and Zoro was transformed into a stream of indigo light—clearly, he had become an elemental!

However, the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle was unaware of this situation. Although he was somewhat puzzled by the fact that the person in front of him had been turned into sparks, he did not dwell on it and instead changed his target again, locking onto Bane.

In the blink of an eye, from the moment he attacked Genos to the moment he defeated Zoro, it was only a split second, and the speed was astonishing!

A punch, brimming with intense killing intent, slammed mercilessly towards Bane. At the same time, Asura Rhino Beetle's gaze was already fixed on Saitama, after all, he didn't believe anyone could withstand his punch.

With a bang, a violent gust of air swept out of the narrow corridor.

Ashura the Rhinoceros Beetle also stopped moving. His gaze, which had been fixed on Saitama, shifted somewhat in confusion to the end of his arm.

His murderous punch was caught with one hand by the man he had just thought was dead.

"Your strength is not bad, but it's only not bad. If you want to kill me, you'd better be a little more serious." Bane said with a chuckle, pressing one hand on the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle's fist.

Not a single mistake, not a single poem, not a single post, not a single piece of content, not a single look!

This attack was powerful, but it couldn't match the power of the giants. However, Bane knew very well that this was just a casual strike from the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle. He hadn't even taken it seriously, let alone the fact that he had an Asura Mode.

"Interesting!" Ashura Rhinoceros Beetle exclaimed with an excited look on its face.

I originally thought there was only one capable fighter, but I didn't expect there to be another one?

This is truly an unexpected delight, and hopefully it will bring him some fun in his monotonous life!

Genos, trapped inside the wall, watched this scene and became even more certain that Bane-sensei was indeed extremely powerful!

Meanwhile, Zoro emerged unharmed from the swirling lightning. He looked at the Asura Rhino Beetle with excitement, seemingly eager to fight it.

"Hmm?" The Asura Rhino Beetle was slightly puzzled to see that Zoro was still alive. After scrutinizing Zoro for a while, it said with a hint of disdain, "Although I don't know what happened to you, you still have a long way to go."

Zoro looked somewhat displeased upon hearing this, but he couldn't refute it, because he could also sense that the Asura Rhino Beetle was indeed extremely powerful.

Without any intention of killing Zoro again, Rhinoceros Beetle puffed out his chest and said arrogantly, "My name is Rhinoceros Beetle, and I'm the strongest fighter in the House of Evolution. I've heard you two are quite strong? There's a nice fighting room here; let's go there and have a good match?"

"Can you pay for my TV?" Saitama suddenly asked.

Asura Rhinoceros Beetle? ??

But just as he was bewildered, Dr. Genus finally arrived, panting, and said, "If you can beat him, I'll compensate you for your TV and your house!"

Saitama perked up and clapped his hands, saying, "Let's go!"

Bane then spoke up, "Hey, hey, let me try first."

Although he had just arrogantly taken the heavy punch from the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle, in reality, Bane didn't have much confidence in winning against the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle. However, opportunities to fight against such a strong opponent were rare, especially since Saitama was there to back him up, so he wouldn't be killed here.

So he really wanted to fight the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle!

"Indeed!" The Asura Rhinoceros Beetle nodded, looking at Bane and saying, "You're far too weak for him. I'll kill you first, then he!"

Even though he hadn't fought Saitama yet, he instinctively felt that Saitama was very strong! As for Bane, although he was not bad, he was only at the "not bad" level compared to Asura Rhinoceros Beetle.
