Become Supreme Will from Hunter x Hunter

Chapter 657: The Art of Passing the Buck

After the physical fitness test comes the written test.

The written test was also quite simple for Long.

As for Saitama...there's no need to think about it.

The content of the written test is nothing more than some professional knowledge about "heroes", such as rescue, prevention, and the choices and methods in dealing with various disaster problems.

Long finished it easily and he was the first one to walk out of the examination room.

After sitting in the lounge for a while, Saitama arrived late.

"How about it?"

Long asked with a smile.

"no problem!"

Saitama gave a confident thumbs up.

Knowing the result, Long looked at his expression with a joking look.

"Long, you really have some skills..."

Oboro was sitting on a chair, Saitama was standing in front of him changing his clothes, and he said without turning his head.

"It's OK, but I can't compare to you."

Long polite.

Obviously, what they were discussing was each other's performance in the physical test just now.

Both Oboro and Saitama noticed each other.

"Enemies or something... that's a lie, right?"

Suddenly, Saitama spoke.

“Not really…”

Long perfunctorily.

This was the first time Saitama witnessed Oboro's strength. Although he had always felt that Oboro was not an ordinary person, he had no estimate of his specific strength. Based on his performance just now, Saitama believed that if Oboro really had an enemy, it would not be so easy for the other party to kill him.

And if you have this ability, there is no need to run to the uninhabited area of ​​City Z.

"There should be more than two of us who have achieved full marks in physical fitness...it's just that the venue we are in is relatively small."

Hazy said.

"I suddenly feel that what you say cannot be believed."

After putting on his clothes, Saitama turned around and blinked his dead eyes.

"Okay, I admit it... I moved into the apartment to seek peace and quiet, not to avoid revenge."

Long shrugged his shoulders.

"So...who are those people who came to see you?"

Saitama looked doubtful.

"It's from the Hero Association... They want to invite me to join the association."

"hazy…"

"Ok?"

"During the physical fitness test just now, you probably didn't use your full strength, right?"

"Why do you say that? I've tried my best..."

“No, it’s just a feeling.”

"..."

Just as Long was thinking about how to answer, Genos appeared.

"teacher."

"Genos, are you done too?"

The topic was interrupted and Saitama's attention was diverted.

"Ah."

Afterwards, the master and the apprentice began their "academic exchange" after the exam.

When Genos asked Saitama how he did in the exam, the bald man was also full of confidence, and Genos was also confident in his own results.

But the latter's confidence is a calm conclusion drawn after brain data analysis...not Saitama's blind confidence.

Then, Saitama described to his apprentice the scene during Oboro's exam and the strength that was revealed.

It can be seen that Genos was also very surprised after hearing this.

"Actually, when I went back yesterday to upgrade and rest my machine, I asked Dr. Kusno to help me investigate Mr. Oboro." Genos said bluntly when he saw Saitama complaining that Oboro was mysterious and his words were unreliable.

Long's heart skipped a beat.

"I already have some understanding of Mr. Oboro's abilities... I also understand why the association's top brass would come to him."

Genos said.

"Hey."

As her eyes opened and closed, a strange light flashed across them, and she reminded him, "Some things are just for you to know, don't go out and talk about them."

"Of course I understand."

Genos nodded.

Genos still respects Oboro as a friend of the teacher. The world of One Punch Man is a world full of technology. Many clues can not only be collected by forces like Neo and the Hero Association, but also easily investigated by anyone with some ability and skills. To put it simply, forces like the Hero Association cannot monopolize intelligence... Moreover, since Oboro came to the world of One Punch Man, he has not been as rigorous as before, and has no intention of erasing his "traces". For example, videos that have been posted online, police surveillance, etc., all of these can be traced.

Even if Genos got some information, it would be similar to the Hero Association, Neo and other organizations, and they would not link him with the 'Peeping Man'.

Right now, the only thing that Oboro is worried about is that he was a little too relaxed when Saitama was dealing with the Vaccine Man... Through Tornado's memory, he found out that his figure was captured by a B-class hero of the association, which is the only 'danger point'.

However, it doesn’t matter even if he is discovered by Genos and Saitama...he and the bald man are not enemies.

Judging from Genos’s reaction at the moment, the clues he collected...mostly do not include the part about Vaccine Man.

I guessed that maybe Xiqi blocked it intentionally.

It was considered as secretly "helping" him.

"Pfft! Hahahaha!"

After a moment, someone's laughter was heard in the room.

Oboro's warning to Genos did not work.

He verbally agreed to Long and said he understood, but turned around and betrayed Long.

Because whatever Saitama wants to know, Genos will tell him the truth.

In Genos' heart, the teacher comes first.

Saitama was seen grinning from ear to ear, watching a video playing on Genos's phone.

It is a scene of Long, naked, falling from the sky.

Long was sitting on the chair with no expression on his face.

But Saitama's laughter was a little harsh, which made him look unhappy.

After a while, Saitama stopped laughing and regained his composure. After watching another video, he stared at Oboro and said calmly, "So this is how you make your money..."

"..."

The corner of Long's eye twitched, but he said nothing.

"Hey, Genos, this is a crime, right?"

"That's right, teacher!"

"You ran to live in the apartment to avoid being caught, right?"

"……"hazy.

"Mr. Long, I think it would be better for you to turn yourself in. Although your behavior did not cause any harm to others, it is extremely bad in nature!"

"Long, you should have used this ability to take a lot of money from others, right?"

Saitama regained his composure and looked at Long.

"Yes, I took a little."

Long coughed.

"I'm serious...don't do that again."

Saitama's tone was a little serious.

Oboro put his hands in his pockets and stood up.

He walked up to Saitama step by step and met the bald man's eyes.

The atmosphere between the two of them suddenly became weird.

Even Genos beside him couldn't help but get nervous.

"Bald..."

Two words came out of Oboro's mouth. This was the first time he called Saitama Baldy.

"Exorcism, game consoles, high-end ingredients... Have you forgotten all of these? You've been to my house for many meals and juices..." Long's face was grim. "Yes, I admit that my money came from an illegal source. But... you also spent it and used it! So, strictly speaking, you are an accomplice!"

After saying that, Oboro grabbed Saitama's wrist with a snap.

"How about this, hero of justice, let's go to the police station and turn ourselves in together, how about that?"

Long smiled, and his smile was very sinister.

The tone is sinister.

"..."

In fact, after hearing Oboro call Baldy and say the second sentence, Saitama's expression was already wrong.

There were even beads of sweat on his forehead, and he looked like a guilty thief.

"No, no, how would I know you had this money... It's obviously you..." Saitama wanted to refute, shaking his head frantically.

"Don't explain. Do you dare to say with all your heart that this matter has nothing to do with you?" Oboro pressed forward again, forcing Saitama to step back. "Take the exorcism for example. If it wasn't for helping you, would I have spent a lot of money to hire that psychic to go to such a dangerous place like the uninhabited area of ​​Z City?! I treated you as a friend, and now you blame me?"

"Indeed, if you, teacher, also spent this kind of bad money, even if you explain, the people in the police station probably won't believe it. Besides, what Mr. Long said is all true." Genos on the side touched his chin and thought seriously.

“……”Saitama.

“Ahahahaha…”

The bald man stretched out his fingers to scratch his face and laughed awkwardly, "What I mean is, you should not do this kind of thing again in the future. As for the past... the past is the past."

Seeing Saitama say this, Oboro's sinister smile suddenly became brighter, "You are indeed a good neighbor. I think so too."

"..."

Saitama felt indescribably uncomfortable.

He felt as if he was... kidnapped.
