Great, we're doomed now!

Now that the universe's overlord has been sent into reincarnation ahead of time, let him complete the mission of defeating Saitama!

also……

He picked up his beer, took a sip, cleared his throat, and said, "There's one more thing I want to tell everyone."

Everyone's attention shifted from the screen, and they all glanced at him.

"Not long ago, I discovered a dark force hiding deep underground in Z City." Ye Shou's tone became serious. "It's quite large and tightly organized, with several Dragon-level monsters likely serving as high-ranking officers... I plan to take it out soon. Anyone interested in coming with me?"

Genos was the first to stand up: "I'll go!"

His answer was crisp and decisive, without any hesitation, and he had no doubt about the accuracy of the information, even though it was said as a joke at the party.

For Genos, Ye Shou's suggestions were never worth considering; he would simply follow along.

“I’ll go too.” The unlicensed rider raised his hand. “Although I won’t be of much help, more people mean more strength.”

"I……"

A thin layer of sweat appeared on KING's forehead. He opened his mouth, then closed it again, and finally nodded with difficulty: "...I'll go too."

"Anyway, nothing much has happened lately."

Bangu pondered for a moment: "Although I'm no longer useful, if you need help, count me in."

Shouldn't we notify the Hero Association? Since it's an organization, we need to be careful that no one slips through the net.

"That's enough." Ye Shou smiled. "Too many people would actually make things more difficult."

...They so easily decided the life and death of a dark organization.

If those self-important eccentrics knew that their fate was decided by a few words while watching a horror movie, they would surely die with their eyes wide open in disbelief...

After the dinner party ended, everyone dispersed. Only then did Fubuki come out and use her telekinesis to clean up the mess, behaving no differently than a virtuous wife who had just seen off her husband's cronies. Ye Shouze stood by the window, watching the sky gradually brighten outside.

"Is that dark organization you just mentioned the 'Trial'?"

"Of course not." Ye Shou chuckled. "They're not even in the same league... Well, of course, the enemy this time is also very strong, which is quite a challenge for everyone."

"Really... By the way, how did you discover that there's something going on underground in Z City? You're not even in this world, how could you find out about something like this?"

"I have my own intelligence channels."

"Then why do we have to solve it now? Can't we wait until... do you have time?"

"Because this is my last concern, resolving it will prevent any major hidden dangers in the world for a short period of time."

Fubuki's brows furrowed slightly.

“Your safety will be guaranteed,” Ye Shou looked at her, his eyes softening, “and I will have no worries.”

Fubuki's heart skipped a beat.

"Could it be because of me...?"

"Because you are very important to me...and its leader is also a superhuman, and you know him."

Ye Shou shook his head: "I'm worried it might implicate you, so it's best to resolve this as soon as possible."

"I know him?" Fubuki was taken aback.

“It’s not just that we know each other,” Ye Shou continued, “you used to be very good friends.”

Fubuki's mind raced, countless faces flashing before her eyes. She didn't know many friends, and those she could call "good" were even fewer, among whom were those with superpowers—

Her pupils suddenly contracted.

"..."

"It seems you already guessed it."

"How could that be... That person... She does sometimes say strange things, like wanting to change the world and establish a new order, but those kinds of things just sound like she's having a fit of chuunibyou (middle school syndrome)..."

"The difference between an eccentric and a hero is sometimes just a matter of a single thought," Ye Shou said calmly. "The same superpower, you choose to use it to protect others, while she chooses to use it to realize her own ideals, and thus they embark on different paths, that's all."

"Unexpectedly... when we meet again, our positions are completely different."

"I'll try my best to let you talk to her face-to-face," Ye Shou said, looking at her. "I want you to clear things up and hopefully avoid any regrets... This is all I can do. If I'm unlucky, this might be my last—"

"Don't say it!"

Fubuki suddenly threw herself into Ye Shou's arms, her body trembling slightly. She raised her head and kissed him passionately, as if she wanted to use her cherry lips to seal his mouth and stop him from saying anything inappropriate.

……

"Honestly, he just agreed, but didn't even set a time. I have to come all the way to find him... Ugh!"

Outside a building, a petite figure, who had been excitedly searching for someone, suddenly froze in mid-air. It's unclear what she saw through the curtains, but after a moment of silence, she resolutely flew away into the distance.

Volume 11: A Tribute to the Day of Destiny: Chapter 495: An S-Class Hero with a Girl's Heart (4K)

On the edge of the cliff, Tornado sat in an extremely dangerous position, her smooth legs dangling over the edge of the precipice, swaying gently in the wind.

She was "pinching" a sunflower in the air, its flower head floating in mid-air. The huge petals were layered on top of each other, each petal as big as an umbrella, and its color was a sickly bright yellow, gleaming with an oily sheen in the afternoon sun.

Tornado expressionlessly plucked a petal, casually tossed it down the cliff, and muttered something under her breath.

"I don't care~"

The petals swirled and fell, turning several times in the air before landing among the mountains of their kind below.

Another petal was plucked off—

"I care~"

Swoosh~

"I do not care."

Swoosh~

"I care."

Ahhhhh!

The "flower" let out a scream.

It wasn't a metaphor; a sound was actually made, like a sob forced out by someone choking you, but much louder, echoing through the empty mountains and forests.

As the tornado moved, its stem trembled violently, its leaves twitched and curled up, then were forcibly unfolded by telekinesis. What seeped from the broken ends was not plant sap, but a dark red liquid with a bloody smell, which slowly flowed down the flower stem, as if blood was being sprinkled from the sky, which looked very horrifying.

But Tornado was clearly no ordinary person; she was unusually indifferent to this. She merely frowned, used her telekinesis to gently sweep away the bloodstains that had splattered around her, and then continued to pluck a petal.

"I do not care."

Ahhhhh!

Another scream rang out... Only then did they realize that it wasn't a flower at all.

Right at the very top of the stem, in the center of that huge flower head, was a human face... Its features were distorted, its complexion was sallow, and its eye sockets were sunken. The face, which should have been covered with sunflower seeds, was now covered with tiny holes.

Those petals grew out from around the face, each connected by fine, vascular-like veins, and when broken, they would spurt out dark red sap.

—The strange man's name is [Melancholy Sunflower].

Of course, this is a code name given by the Hero Association for easy archiving. As for its actual name, probably no one cares or would ask.

The valley below the cliff was a mess. A meteorite crater with a diameter of more than 100 meters was embedded in the ground. The crater walls were smooth, as if a piece of space had been carved out along with it.

The surrounding trees fell in a radial pattern, their breaks clean, as if an invisible blade had sliced ​​them off.

The air was filled with the smell of burning, mixed with an indescribable fishy odor...

It's clear that a battle has just taken place here.

Moreover, it was a one-sided crushing defeat—you can tell from this guy's current miserable state.

An hour ago, Tornado was just passing through this desolate wilderness when she "casually" unleashed her superpowers and accidentally blasted a huge hole in the ground.

It's not her fault; she was just in a bad mood.

Logically speaking, she hadn't encountered any major troubles, but there was an inexplicable anger stuck in her chest, making her not want to see anyone and just wanting to vent her frustrations.

You should know that being a hero also brings pressure!

So she veered off course and drifted aimlessly over the desolate mountains, her mind replaying those scenes that left her speechless... The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.

So she practically turned the entire mountain upside down!

Just as she was considering whether to fill the soil and rocks back in and restore the ground to its original state, the ground beneath her feet suddenly cracked open.

The melancholy sunflower burst forth from the ground, its enormous flower head suddenly opening wide, and countless sunflower seeds shot out at it like shrapnel, each carrying enough kinetic energy to pierce through a steel plate!

It thought it was the ambush predator, but it was actually just a grasshopper hopping around in front of the lion.

Tornado didn't even dodge. She used her telekinesis to create an invisible barrier around herself, deflecting all the sunflower seeds and then using the wind pressure to press them to the ground.

The melancholy sunflower then realized something was wrong and immediately tried to burrow underground to escape, but this time the tornado didn't give it the chance. Its telekinetic power, like an invisible giant hand, uprooted the entire monster.

The melancholy sunflower struggled desperately, its roots flailing wildly in the air, yet it was as powerless as an infant facing a strong man... What followed was quite predictable.

Tornado didn't kill it. She didn't come here to fight monsters; this guy just happened to run into trouble.

It turns out that this strange flower named "Melancholy Sunflower" is a top-level wanted criminal on the association's list.

It will suddenly appear in the city center and spit out sunflower seeds to attack humans. The sunflower seeds will then parasitize the human body, absorb nutrients and grow into small flowers. The roots will penetrate deep into the internal organs, making it as difficult to remove as a tumor. Whether you treat it or just endure it, it will be accompanied by life-threatening danger and great pain.

The association has wanted to eliminate it for a long time, but because it is very sensitive and has a strong ability to sense living beings, it will escape underground before the arrival of powerful life energy, so no one has been able to catch it.

His actual strength was only barely at the Demon level, but due to the heinous nature of his crimes, he was given a Dragon-level bounty.

To evade the Hero Association's pursuit, it usually stays underground in the wilderness, hibernating and nurturing sunflower seeds... Unexpectedly, this tornado suddenly arrived and immediately ripped up the entire ground, clearly intending to kill.

Believing that it was there specifically for this, the melancholy sunflower naturally had to give it its all—

If it knew the truth, I wonder how much it would regret it...

Strangely enough, Tatsumaki, who usually shows no mercy to monsters, was unusually interested in "playing" with Himawari today. Perhaps it was because Himawari had such a terrible reputation that she was so disgusting that she didn't even want to give him a quick death.

So, like a young girl in love, she picked the petals one by one, slowly and carefully... The scene, accompanied by the literal bloodshed, was almost like performing some kind of evil ritual.

"I don't care~"

"I care~"

"I don't care~"

"Enough! Enough! I'll talk, I'll talk!"
