"What does it matter? Warming up a bit before the real battle is a good idea. But you seem to know about our prophecy, which makes me quite curious," Boros asked with a hint of curiosity.
“Of course I know your purpose, and I can tell you definitively that the person is on your spaceship. If you’d like, I can actually guide you there,” Abigail said to Boros.
In fact, Abigail was certain of one more thing: the person Boros mentioned in his prophecy who could give her a truly satisfying battle was definitely not Saitama. Although Boros seemed capable of inflicting some damage and withstanding other ordinary attacks, the difference in their strength was still vast, making it far from a battle of equal strength. However, there was no need to say this aloud.
“Okay, fine, then you lead the way, just like you said. Although I wanted to warm up a bit first, I can hardly contain my excitement,” Boros nodded and said.
Hearing that Boros had agreed to her proposal, Abigail breathed a sigh of relief. Although she wasn't truly afraid of Boros and had plenty of ways to escape, and even killing Boros wasn't entirely out of the question, none of that mattered. She was just there to watch the show; if she became the protagonist, it would be putting the cart before the horse.
"Alright, come with me. Speaking of which, that bald guy is still running around in your huge spaceship." With that, Abigail turned and walked towards Saitama.
Using her magical detection, Abigail located Saitama's location. However, to Abigail's dismay, Saitama was running in the opposite direction. If she really had to wait for Saitama to find Boros, who knew how long it would take?
With no other option, Abigail stretched out her hand, aimed at Saitama's location, and then gathered her magic power to unleash a high-intensity magic beam. The beam instantly pierced through countless ship cabins and shot towards Saitama. It struck Saitama directly on the forehead, burning a charred spot on it.
"Who is it! How dare you ambush me?" After being burned by the beam of magic, Saitama seemed to feel a little pain, so he turned around and said angrily. However, there was no one behind Saitama, which puzzled him.
However, Abigail's goal was actually achieved. After being attacked like that, Saitama changed direction and began to move towards Abigail's location.
"What were you doing just now?" Boros asked Abigail, looking at her actions with some confusion.
"Nothing, just reminding the bald guy. If I hadn't reminded him, he would have run a long way in the opposite direction," Abigail said casually, then continued walking forward.
“Your planet’s way of communicating is quite peculiar. I could sense that your energy beam just now contained a lot of energy; if it had hit me directly, it should have been able to pass right through me,” Boros said casually, then followed Abigail’s steps.
“I say, why do you have to run around looking for strong people? If you really want to seek excitement, why don’t you train a strong person yourself? Wouldn’t that be much better than running around aimlessly?” On the way to Saitama’s location, Abigail floated up and turned around to ask Boros.
“I’ve tried that before. But no matter how much I oppress the people of a region, they still can’t produce anyone strong enough to fight me. Even among my own kind, there isn’t a single person who can reach my level anymore. Can you understand that feeling? That feeling of being invincible to the point of boredom. I’ve always been looking for excitement, so I’ve been conquering all regions of the universe. However, this behavior was somewhat useful at first, but it no longer satisfies me.”
"I couldn't understand why, in such a vast universe, there wasn't a single being who could rival me. Finally, one day, while I was conquering a region, a local diviner told me that on your planet there was someone who could make me fight with all my might. Although my subordinates all thought it was just a lie told by the diviner to avoid war, I would come as long as there was even the slightest possibility. But it turns out he wasn't lying. I've seen in you the possibility that can motivate me to fight, and that powerful being whom even you admire so much should be enough for me to fight with all my might."
"Boros said with some excitement."
However, after listening to Boros's description, Abigail suddenly thought of a question. If what Boros said was true, then Earth actually had the highest combat power in the entire universe. Even if Saitama were eliminated, it would still be the same. You know, of the three highest-ranking fighters on this spaceship, one was killed by Saitama, another was killed by herself, and the last one was killed by four S-class heroes in the original storyline.
To be fair, the number of people who could be chosen by Boros to become the leader of all the crew members is extremely small in the entire universe. However, such people appear in large numbers on Earth. Not to mention heroes, there are quite a few freaks who can reach their level.
Could it be that...
Suddenly, Abigail thought of a possible ideal.
Does this mean Earth is the center of this world? And the reason Boros became so powerful is because he's one of the bosses. Meanwhile, the others, who have no role at all, don't receive the world's favor and therefore couldn't possibly become powerful beings.
If we follow this logic, is the plot truly the key to this world?
Abigail had always thought that the so-called plot was just information transmitted from one world to another, which was then received by someone and created. However, it seems that the situation is not as simple as she imagined.
Thinking about it this way, Abigail suddenly realized something: since coming to this world, she had influenced quite a few things, but it seemed that every key plot point would happen as scheduled.
For example, during the Deep Sea King's invasion a while ago, I was originally in J City, with Tatsumaki with me. However, on the day of the Deep Sea King's invasion, Tatsumaki had to leave, and I was summoned to the House of Evolution headquarters by Kinus. Was all of this really just a coincidence?
As she continued to push forward, Abigail found herself increasingly disturbed by the subtle changes in her thinking.
No, I have to get to the bottom of this. Since all the previous actions have been corrected, I'll go for something even bigger—something that ordinary methods simply can't fix.
Just as Abigail was pondering this question, the spaceship suddenly began to shake violently. The shaking lasted for a while and then stopped.
"It seems your planet has quite strong defenses. This feeling... suggests the spaceship has been attacked."
Hearing Boros's words, Abigail roughly understood what had happened. Simply put, the spaceship fired shells at the ground, but Tornado used her superpowers to send all the shells back.
However, Abigail had to complain a bit. Despite being a giant spaceship capable of interstellar travel, it still used ordinary kinetic energy cannons. Was it because its individual strength was too great that it hadn't developed those devastating weapons?
The spaceship continued to shake intermittently afterward, clearly indicating that the ground attack had begun. However, the spaceship's defenses were quite strong, and at least during this time, there was no indication that it might fall.
"Abby!" A few minutes later, Saitama's voice came from the corridor in front.
Saitama then ran ahead of Abigail.
"Abby, I didn't expect you to be on this spaceship too. Do you know where the boss is? I've been searching for so long, but I haven't run into anyone who looks like the boss."
"Are you the representative of this planet?"
Upon hearing Boros's voice, Saitama turned his head to look at the approaching Russian, and said with some surprise, "Wow, what's wrong with you? Why do you only have one eye?"
“Saitama, he’s the captain of this spaceship. My mission is complete. The rest is up to you.” Abigail finished speaking and then floated to the side, choosing a good spot to watch the show.
"Hey? What's going on, Abby?" Saitama was still a little confused, but he did realize one thing: the person in front of him seemed to be his enemy.
"Let me introduce myself. I am Boros, the leader of the Dark Thieves, the Dark Matter, and the overlord of the entire universe."
"Oh, I'm a hero I do out of interest... no, I'm a professional hero, Saitama."
"Saitama?"
"So you're the boss? What's your purpose in coming to Earth? How dare you destroy the entire City A?" Saitama asked Boros.
"My purpose is simple: to fight you. There was once a prophecy. I once conquered space, but I was too strong, and in the end, no one dared to challenge me. I was extremely bored and in agony. Then a fortune teller said that on a distant planet, there was someone who could fight me and satisfy my desires. Twenty years have passed, and I have gone through countless years to come here, all for this one possibility. Come on, give my life some excitement. That is my purpose."
Boros's face was filled with excitement. But at that moment, Saitama suddenly punched Boros, who was standing in front of him, sending him flying all the way to the end of the passage.
"You idiot. You're just bored and looking for excitement, so you go and invade other planets. Even an office lady wouldn't think like that."
At the end of the passage, after the smoke dissipated, Boros fell off the wall, slightly injured but not seriously. Compared to the other monsters, Boros's strength was evident.
As Boros stood on the ground, his brown armor suddenly shattered into pieces.
"This armor was meant to seal my overwhelming power, but you've shattered it."
"is it?"
Saitama casually replied.
On the other side, Boros's body suddenly turned black, and his previously somewhat muscular physique transformed into one where his muscles bulged dramatically. And one thing that has to be criticized is that during Boros's transformation, his body emitted a large amount of light. While it looked intimidating, it was undeniably too dazzling.
So Abigail pulled out a pair of sunglasses from somewhere and put them on, while holding a bucket of popcorn and floating a distance away to watch Boros's transformation.
"Come on!" With the transformation complete, Boros instantly rushed from the end of the passage towards where Clara was, his speed so great that it even caused a shockwave.
"Yes, the blockbuster is finally about to begin."
After saying that, Abigail casually grabbed a handful of popcorn and threw it into her mouth.
Chapter Ninety-Two: The Ultimate Showdown
Saitama and Boros clashed. Both were strong fighters specializing in physical combat, and their attacks were all brutal and impactful.
Boros charged at Saitama, punching him once, twice... more and more punches rained down on Saitama, each punch generating a shockwave.
Saitama used his left hand to defend against Boros's attacks, and each attack was perfectly blocked.
However, Saitama was still sent flying by Boros's final, powerful blow. After being knocked away, Saitama began to retreat, and Boros immediately followed, engaging Saitama in battle once again.
Saitama's retreating speed was ultimately not as fast as Boros's pursuit speed, so Boros punched Saitama, sending him into the air, and then attacked Saitama from different directions.
However, Saitama was able to defend against Boros's attacks every time.
After several such attacks, the two were separated by a sudden collision, and then charged at each other together.
boom......
The two collided and threw a punch at each other. The shockwave swept through the cabin.
Then, after one attack ended, the two landed on the ground.
At this moment, Saitama had virtually no wounds on his body, although he was covered in some dust.
On the other hand, Boros' right hand was broken by Saitama's punch.
"To think that you could actually contend with me after my power has been unleashed to this extent!" Boros said with some excitement.
"Hmm, you're really strong!" Saitama turned around and said to Boros. To be honest, Boros is the only person who has ever received such praise from Saitama.
Then, a second wave of attacks came. Boros charged at Saitama again, and the two engaged in a fierce battle, fighting from the ground to the rooftops, from one room to another. Each collision was a massive impact. The ship's cabins were smashed to pieces.
"Watching the movie live is definitely the most enjoyable thing." Abigail followed the two of them, constantly moving around the battle area. As for the popcorn in her hand, it had long been knocked over by the shockwave, and Abigail didn't take out a second serving.
As the two continued to collide, the cabin was clearly no longer sufficient for them.
thump...
With a collision, the two were thrown out of the cabin and landed on the top of the spaceship.
Abigail then followed.
“Beautiful moves, you are indeed very strong. This is the first time I, Boros, have encountered an evenly matched opponent.” As Boros said this, a dazzling light began to shine from his body.
"Now I am going to release the enormous energy within me; anyone who touches it will be reduced to ashes."
A beam of blue-white light shot directly towards Saitama from Boros's body. Under the immense energy of this beam, the top of the massive spaceship was engulfed in flames.
"Wow, the area is huge. I'd better stay far away, otherwise it won't be fun if those two get carried away and hit me." Looking at the raging flames around her, Abigail quickly flew towards the outside of the spaceship. Although it wasn't as clear from a distance, the visual effect was much more spectacular.
Saitama was unharmed in this energy burst, but his vision was blocked. Just then, Boros's voice came from behind him.
"Behind you!"
Boom...
No sooner had he finished speaking than Boros punched Saitama in the face.
The force of the punch was so great that the shockwave instantly extinguished the raging flames on the top of the spaceship, and even the smoke and dust were blown away, making the field of vision clear again.
“This worked.” Boros said, standing opposite Saitama. “It seems the outcome is about to be decided.”
Seemingly feeling he had a significant advantage, Boros began his commentary:
"My race has won the struggle for survival in the harsh environment of our home planet. We possess one of the best natural healing abilities in the entire universe, especially me. I am among the best in terms of self-healing, physical strength, and potential. Fatal wounds you inflict can heal in seconds, and a severed arm can be instantly enhanced by concentrating my energy..."
Just as Boros was saying this, the wound on his right hand, which had been severed during his punch with Saitama, began to tremble. In just a moment, a hand grew back from the wound. Boros raised his restored hand and continued, "It can also return to its original state."
"And you, your wounds are getting worse, and your strength is waning..."
"Shut up, stop babbling. Is that all? You're not going to fight anymore?" Saitama said impatiently.
Hearing Saitama say that, Boros became excited again.
"Perfect, not yet!"
Boros placed one hand on the ground, assuming a charging stance, and his originally black skin suddenly turned white, while the light emanating from his body became even brighter.
"Meteorite exploded!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Boros arrived in front of Saitama and sent him flying with a single punch. The energy of this punch dissolved the surface of the spaceship along its path. Boros then caught up with Saitama at an even faster speed and launched a series of attacks. Under such continuous attacks, the entire surface of the spaceship was completely wrecked by the aftershocks of these attacks. Wherever they hit, the surface of that spaceship was either pulverized or dissolved into liquid.
The speed was so fast that Abigail could no longer see it clearly with her own eyes; she could only see a blur of afterimages caused by the excessive speed.
