From Hunter x Hunter to Supreme Will

Page 699

Simply put, Saitama's attack was ineffective and caused no damage... but the perceptual impact on the soul would still be fed back to Oboro himself.

He still has to endure the pressure from Saitama countless times.

At this time, it was no longer the so-called pain of countless deaths... Because Saitama's aggressiveness was too high, his soul would be annihilated in almost an instant, and there was no time to experience the impact of "death". However, Oboro's own physical attributes and strong will allowed him to clearly feel the slightest bit of the terrifying power before the bald man's attack fell on him.

Countless signs of death were shaking his soul.

Every impact on the 'heart' is beyond words.

That's just him...if it were someone else, they would have collapsed long ago.

And once his will collapses, his soul realm will dissipate.

Besides, it's not like Saitama is incapable of killing him.

Generally speaking, only rules can fight against the power of rules... Because in the specific world setting and background of One Punch Man, Saitama is the only one, so as long as the bald man's power reaches a limit, he can also fight against the rules.

Even the rules can be shaken, let alone the soul.

The soul is a mystery, although it is not a rule... but in order to fight against the mystery, you don't need a lot of power. The key to fighting the mystery lies in the method. As long as you find the right method to crack it, even if Saitama does not understand the soul so thoroughly, he can still kill himself.

But the problem is... Saitama is really not good at thinking, that is, the so-called "combat thinking". His battles always end with simple violence, that is, one punch kills. The so-called "growth curve" bug is not attached to his mind.

Therefore, when facing an opponent like Oboro, Saitama does not observe carefully or think...which is precisely his biggest weakness.

If he found the 'key' to fight against the soul, the right method, he could easily kill Long.

This is the difference between rules and secrets.

In the Dark Continent, some rules are actually the same.

It is presented in certain specific ways or methods and needs to be cracked.

The simplest way to defeat Oboro is to return the soul to the body... Although Oboro extracted Saitama's soul and trapped it in the field, Saitama's soul and body are inseparable in a certain sense. Although the essence of his soul has not changed, if the power of the soul is the same as the body, it will surge with an unlimited cheat.

Then... as long as the bald man calms down, he can leave the field and return to his original body.

But in reality, Oboro could never beat Saitama no matter what.

Saitama needs to calm down, to sense and find his own body...

But the problem is, Saitama can't calm down at all.

In the soul realm.

The power of the soul has been in a chaotic state, floating everywhere.

This 'space' constantly emitted sounds like the sound of a huge bell. Each deafening sound was actually Saitama's various attacks... His body was almost disappearing from the gray space and could not be seen by the naked eye.

As for Long, he could not be found... because most of the time, his soul was scattered and floating everywhere.

He tried to fight back, but to little avail.

Because the bald guy's strength has been breaking through and rising, just like his original body... At the beginning, Long could still use some martial arts or physical skills to deal with it, but later on, all the skills were useless.

Their attribute values are too different.

This difference in attributes alone made all of Long's "skills" ineffective.

in reality.

Genos, who was anxious, noticed something strange.

It was already sunset, and the sun had sunk over the horizon of the distant Gobi Desert. He was still unable to reach the teacher and Mr. Long.

But at this moment, the space where the two of them were located was like glass, with cracks appearing on it, and the light and shadow in the space were distorted.

This is not over yet…

Faintly, he seemed to hear some noise.

Although the effect of the sound was very subtle, it gave a feeling of the impact and explosion of two extraterrestrial stars colliding above his head, and just listening to it made him feel a little palpitated.

He looked around but had no idea where the strange noise came from.

In the end, I had to focus my attention on the teacher and Mr. Oboro.

……

in the field.

After moving for who knows how long, Saitama finally stopped.

Beads of sweat appeared on his forehead and he was breathing slightly heavily.

His whole face was so excited that he couldn't hide his smile.

On the other side, a familiar scene was played out again.

Wisps of gray air floated over, gathered and transformed into Long's body.

"Do you want to continue?" Long asked calmly, grabbing his hair with one hand.

"Of course...I will definitely defeat you!"

Saitama said happily.

"It's useless... You should understand by now, right? You can't do anything to me, and I can't do anything to you." Oboro closed one eye and slightly opened the other, glancing at Saitama, pretending to be a little tired, "No matter how long we fight, we're always tied..."

"That's not right... You're cheating."

Saitama reacted and complained: "I have tried to 'kill you' countless times, but you have never killed me once."

"If I kill you, you will be 'dead' in the true sense. We are just sparring, not really going to fight to the death." Long snorted coldly, "Besides... I can die countless times, but you only need to die once and you're gone..."

"in addition!"

Long extended a finger and emphasized: "With your ability, you cannot escape from this soul realm... As long as your soul is imprisoned here, you in reality are equivalent to 'death'. So... I am still stronger than you."

"What a twisted theory! You are clearly being stubborn."

Veins popped up on Saitama's forehead.

"Tsk... This is the truth, okay?"

Long sneered.

They couldn't fight anymore...Oboro had already noticed that Saitama's strength had increased horribly, and his soul's might had already been transmitted to the 'outside world' through the domain, and had affected reality. Even the fragments of the multiverse where the two of them were alone could no longer bear it. If they continued like this, the domain would still be able to trap Saitama, but it would not be able to shield him from his remaining might. Once the fragments of space exploded, they would return to the desert on Earth. At that moment, Saitama might only need one breath to turn Genos nearby into ashes.

As for the Earth...an entire supercontinent of human beings, I dare not even imagine what the consequences will be.

"Are you trying to run away?"

Saitama also taunted.

"I just don't want to continue wasting time doing such meaningless things..." Long said without blushing or beating his heart.

In fact, he was a little worried.

If Saitama's soul continues to grow indefinitely with this span, can he break through the soul realm and really kill him? Because the judgment of this battle is only based on Oboro's own analysis and cognitive framework, but this world is Saitama's home field, and Baldy can't define it with common sense.

So... just in case, just in case it really can be done.

That would be bad.

Of course, although Long was passive in this fight, he did gain something.

Instead, the gains were huge.

Otherwise there is no need to be hammered by the bald head all the time.

The stronger Saitama's soul becomes, the more terrifying the soul pressure that Oboro will suffer... His own soul has also slowly undergone some changes under countless shocks.

Long noticed this.

His soul was "tempered" by Saitama.

However, Saitama, the tool, definitely doesn't know this... If he is allowed to continue enjoying himself, he may very likely exceed the 'danger line'.

Long would definitely not take any risks.

So, he stopped playing. "That's it, today's a tie... I'm going home, I'm going home."

Long didn't care about Saitama's reaction. After he finished speaking, he immediately retracted his ability.

The bald man's eyes blurred, and when he looked again, he had returned to reality.

Long on the opposite side waved his hand, tearing open the space barrier, allowing the two to return to the Gobi Desert.

It was not until this time that Genos discovered that the space had returned to normal and he could finally step into the battlefield where the two were.

"teacher!"

Genos ran towards Saitama first.

"Ah...you're playing dirty. It's not over yet. Why are you running away?"

Saitama only had Halo in his eyes at this moment, he stretched out a finger and shouted.

"Draw, draw."

Oboro continued to take advantage of his thick skin, stepped forward, picked up the suit jacket from Genos' hand, dusted it off, and put it back on.

"Hehehe... I think you are afraid of me?"

Saitama yelled.

"Yes, yes... You are awesome. How come you haven't defeated me yet?"

"I don't know who it was... breathing heavily and sweating profusely, but it wasn't me."

Long responded sarcastically.

After saying that, he ran away.
