Appearing behind Butterfly was a blond young man dressed in black and wearing headphones.

"I'm not down yet. Since I can still keep fighting, you shouldn't be doing things like taking your eyes off your opponent, right?"

Izayoi Sakamaki.

The young man who had previously hindered her, as a power holder who could nullify all sorts of abilities, was a very difficult enemy for Butterfly.

Therefore, after taking it very seriously, Die used absolute power to completely crush it.

despite this.

"Looks like just beating you to near death isn't enough to send you on your way..."

"What are you talking about, near death? You're kidding me. Do you think that kind of situation is anything to worry about for me?"

Now, the young man's body is so badly damaged that it is almost unbearable to look at. Even his arms are covered in blood, and his bones are even faintly visible.

But he was still standing right in front of me.

His physical condition was clearly close to death; there was no way he could stand up again.

and.

"You don't really think I'm the only one here to stop you, do you?"

pat.

Footsteps sounded again.

The other two people who had previously stopped him along with Izayoi Sakamaki also approached him.

Saitama, Virgil.

Compared to Izayoi Sakamaki's injuries, they didn't seem to suffer any major damage. This was because the Butterfly hadn't considered them as primary targets, and instead prioritized completely defeating Izayoi Sakamaki.

Even so, each of them should have been subjected to a fatal attack...

There was absolutely no chance of them getting back up and continuing the fight.

“You seem puzzled as to why we can continue to stand up and stop you…is that right? After all, your confusion is written all over your face.”

He was right. Butterfly was indeed puzzled. She simply couldn't understand why these three ants, who were no match for her, could still stand in her way.

"the reason is simple."

Izayoi Sakamaki pointed at her with one finger.

That scarred face wore an expression that showed no intention of giving up.

"Because this is what we've always been doing."

"Give up because you're on the verge of death? Give up because the enemy's strength exceeds all your imagination? Don't be ridiculous. Everyone standing here has personally experienced this kind of hellish battlefield countless times!"

Do you think you can interfere with our enlightenment with your level of obstruction?

They are not in their original world, and nothing here has anything to do with them. They have no reason to fight so hard for everything here.

So what?

Even if they were in another world, they would still choose to fight to protect these innocent people and safeguard this peace.

This is the choice they made.

That's all the simple reason that kept them standing.

"Ok."

Realizing this, Butterfly completely lost her last bit of patience.

"...Well, it seems I really won't have a chance to add any more water."

then.

Patience was worn down to the last moment, and there was no longer even the slightest chance to endure.

The butterfly no longer hesitated.

She raised her hand, and at that moment, all the strength in her body erupted without mercy.

Whether it's Saitama, Izayoi Sakamaki, or Vergil, they all prepared their strongest and greatest special techniques.

All for the sake of inflicting as much damage as possible on the enemy in front of them.

"Ready to go... everyone."

Originating from the desperate cry of Izayoi Sakamaki, the three of them instantly unleashed all the power in their bodies.

Do everything in your power to stop the enemy in front of you.

--------------------------------

then.

It was merely a one-time, devastating blow, far beyond the vast power that the observable and unobservable universe could explain.

Three people from another world disappeared here forever.

---------------------------------

boom--! !

Taking advantage of the brief opportunity of the surprise attack, they directly infiltrated into a deeper region of the black hole.

And the instant they entered this interior.

Whether it was Accelerator or anyone else, they immediately noticed the passing of three lives.

“…You bastard.”

Accelerator frowned, a rare occurrence for him, and punched the ground in obvious annoyance.

Then, he turned his gaze to someone next to him.

"So, isn't it about time you explained yourself?"

The way they looked at each other was extremely dangerous and hostile.

It was even brimming with murderous intent.

"Explain why a bastard like you would be in a place like this."

Aresta Crowley.

Known as the Silver Star, he is the most famous and feared magician in modern times, a man who holds a king-like position in the modern Western magic system.

On this basis, he is also the founder of the entire scientific side's representative camp... the Academy City domain.

Even if he were to abandon his identity in the field of magic, his great achievements in science alone would be enough for him to stand alone in the world.

Such a man.

Why would it appear at the deepest part of this black hole at this time?

“I read every single word you left in that building.”

Aleister, the man who is the chairman of the board of directors of Academy City, saved him.

This is an undeniable fact.

and so.

Knowing this clearly, Accelerator simply leaped forward.

boom--! !

With a single, powerful thrust, he grabbed Aleister by the neck.

"You should understand why I'm doing this now, right?"

The fact that he disappeared from Academy City on his own, and then reappeared at this time, is enough to justify Accelerator's decision to kill Aleister.

How could Aleister, whose whereabouts were unknown, appear unharmed in this black hole at such a time?

"You seem to think I've betrayed you."

Even with the other person's hands gripping his neck tightly, Aleister showed no change in expression whatsoever.

"But you should think and observe more carefully."

"…What?"

At this moment, Accelerator finally realized what was happening.

Is it possible…

He frowned again, and then suddenly ripped open Aleister's shirt.

…That situation goes beyond what words like "covered in wounds" can describe.

A pure black substance is completely eroding Aleister's upper body, and even his heart is faintly visible.

"What exactly did you do during all this time?"

"There are reasons why I left Academy City. It's all because I knew this outcome was inevitable long before these things happened."

Clearly, this situation, where even the body is completely corroded, has been going on for a long time.

Ignoring his own injuries, Aleister explained to Accelerator in a calm, almost frightening tone.

"After confirming all the intelligence, I realized that this life form existing in the black hole is something that no one can resist."

"Whether you include people from other worlds, or you and me, or all those demons and gods, even if their power were at its peak... they simply wouldn't have the slightest chance of winning."

"...So what exactly brought you to a place like this?"

Let's set aside for now how Aleister knew this information in advance.

If he knew that even if everyone combined couldn't change anything, then why did he record that kind of thing in the windowless building? And why did he bring them all to the windowless building? And why did they end up in this black hole?

I must know the answers to all of this.

So, at least until we know all this, this bastard in front of us can't die.

puff-

Accelerator suddenly plunged his hand into Aleister's abdomen.

That alone was enough to make him frown.

*Thud!* In the next instant, the first person's hand was pulled out from his abdomen, but this did not take the chairman's life.

His hands were covered in that dark substance.

The moment these things were forcibly pulled out, Aleister's eyes widened in shock.

"Pfft... Pfft wah...!!"

"I've already extracted all these things from your body, and I've also stimulated your nerves to restore the active flow of your blood."

"He actually used energy manipulation abilities... to save me...?"

Aleister collapsed to the ground, panting heavily.

Accelerator used his spatial manipulation abilities to simply stitch up his abdomen, thus achieving a hemostatic effect.

"Oh dear, it seems that the little brat you valued has really grown up."

"That certainly seems to be the case."

But then other voices came from behind.

Accelerator didn't look back, because he had already confirmed the other person's true identity before that.

Moreover, it was someone they had already met once before.

Golden light gathered at the scene.

Immediately afterwards, the platinum-gold radiance, seemingly illuminating everything, took human form in an incomparably sacred manner.

"You don't seem surprised at all by my presence?"

"Enough with the nonsense. Do you think I didn't see you when you popped up?"

Holy Guardian Angel Aiwass.

The platinum-colored being, possessing immense power, chuckled and casually appeared before the two humans, floating as if on air.

The angel's lips couldn't help but curve into a smile.
