A mob of clones

Chapter 507: Mist Core: I Will Ignite the Sea of ​​Stars

"Tick tock~"

It's like a drop of water falling into a pond, or a star falling into the galaxy.

In an instant, the whole world turned dark and bright.

The four people around also saw the changed world at this moment.

This is an endless sea.

Even with a tornado, Boros and even Saitama's eyesight would not be able to see the end of the sea.

The originally azure sky was transformed into a sky full of stars at this moment. The stars and the bright moon in the sky corresponded to the sea level under the feet. The starlight shone into the sea surface, reflecting the color of the starry sky, as if the starry sky entered the sea, which was inexplicably shocking.

However, suddenly appearing in such a strange scene, the only one who was in the mood to carefully observe the surrounding scenery was the bald devil Saitama.

Boros, who was used to seeing the sea of ​​stars, glanced around and then looked directly at the fist mist core in front of him with inexplicably high momentum, and the excitement in his one eye did not diminish at all.

"Yes, that's it, just use whatever moves you have!"

"Come on, as long as you can win, it doesn't matter what means you use."

"No matter what tricks or means you use, I will fight with you!"

"Even if the three of you come together now, I actually have no objection."

Looking at the confident Boros opposite, Yiquan Mist Core standing above the sea shook his head.

"No! Your opponent now is me. If you can defeat me, then he will be the one to take the stage..."

Hearing One Punch Mist Core say this and pointing a finger at the bald man behind him, Boros couldn't help but look over there.

But at this moment...

"bump!!!"

Before Boros could even react to what was happening, a huge explosion suddenly sounded, and an enormous force was instantly applied to Boros' body.

In an instant, his face was distorted as fast as the waves, and his whole body flew backwards like a cannonball.

It was like a floating ball being thrown onto the sea surface, bouncing back and forth continuously, creating large ripples visible to the naked eye on the calm sea surface.

After several flips, Boros suddenly burst out with strength and finally managed to stabilize his body.

But before he could really stabilize his body, another attack came without warning.

This time it was an attack from the sky. The terrifying force fell from the sky like a meteorite and hit Boros on the head, smashing him into the sea below.

Under the blessing of ultra-high speed, the originally soft sea surface now seemed like hard concrete, and the powerful force was directly released on Boros' body.

The powerful force made him unable to help but open his mouth and spit out a large mouthful of blood, and then he sank heavily into the sea.

"What kind of power is this? Is it so fast that I can't even see it?!"

He slowly sank beneath the sea, and was surprised to find that the sea surface, which should have been extremely clear, was completely dark after he actually fell into it.

It’s like being in the starry sky.

He raised his eyes and looked around, and was surprised to find that he seemed to be in the universe. The starry sky under his feet, the bright moon in the distance, everything was so conspicuous. Only the horizon above was so strange and disharmonious.

"It's not that the starry sky is reflected in the sea, but that the starry sky is sunk into the seabed..."

After getting such an answer, Boros did not feel that there was anything wrong. Instead, a surge of excitement suddenly surged from the bottom of his heart, and a strong desire to fight broke out.

"Right, that's right, only someone with this kind of strength is qualified to fight me."

……

"Solve it?"

Looking at the sea surface which had been calm since Boros fell into the water, Tornado, who had originally thought that there would be a fierce battle no less fierce than the previous one, was now full of confusion and puzzlement.

She really couldn't believe that such a powerful monster could be completely defeated in just two moves.

And this is indeed the case.

"Meteor burst—"

A dull low sigh suddenly vibrated the entire surface of the water.

The originally extremely calm sea surface suddenly surged with waves at this moment.

Then a dazzling white light suddenly broke through the water surface and flew out from the starry sky under the sea, appearing in the sky like another scorching sun in the dark night. The sudden increase in energy once again made Tornado feel suffocated.

Even Saitama, who originally had no interest in this battle, couldn't help but show some interest.

But now neither of them is the protagonist of this battle, the One Punch Mist Core is...

Looking at Boros who finally unleashed all his strength, he swept a punch of the mist core at Saitama who was standing not far behind him with a smile on his face as a backup. A fiery fighting spirit burned in his eyes, and the terrifying cursed flame burned on his body.

In response to Boros's undisguised provocation, One Punch Mist Core, who now had no worries and no need to protect anyone or anything, naturally had only one answer - fight!!!

Two flames that shine like stars collided with each other, dissipating in both directions on the mirror-like sea surface, rushing towards the distant sea of ​​stars in the sky, and also rushing towards the stars in the deep seabed beneath the feet.

The second round of battle begins at this moment——

"Om-"

A white light suddenly flashed before his eyes. He stared at everything in front of him with wide eyes. Tornado, who was ready to provide support at any time, was instantly dazzled by the white light and couldn't help closing his eyes.

A huge buzzing sound continued to ring in her ears, and it seemed as if a silver needle was forcibly inserted into her brain. The intense pain made it impossible for her to think normally.

The white light came and went quickly, and soon Tornado was able to open his eyes again.

But the huge buzzing sound still echoed in his ears, making Tornado wonder if he was deaf. If not, why couldn't he hear his own voice when he spoke?

When she opened her eyes and tried to look around, she realized that there was something wrong with her eyes, because she couldn't find the figures of Yiquan Wuhe and Boros!
Rubbing his eyes with his hand, Tornado once again looked at the entire venue.

"No, still no..."

"Where are the two of them?!"

Unable to accurately judge the situation on the field, Tornado became a little anxious, but when she turned her head slightly, she found that the bald man beside her who was brought over by the punch of the mist core was looking up at the sky, as if there was something interesting there.

I remember that this bald Tornado seemed to be the B-level hero who interrupted the previous meeting.

The moment he saw this guy, a question popped up in Tornado's mind, "Isn't this guy just a B-class hero? Then how did he get up here? Did he get brought up with me when I pulled those two people up again?"

However, as soon as this thought appeared, it was temporarily thrown aside by Tornado. Now is not the time to think about these things!
Seeing Saitama looking up at the sky with a strange expression as if he was looking at something, I couldn't help but raise my head...

"What are you looking at! What could be in the sky?!"

Although Tornado himself couldn't hear what he was saying, the bald man next to him seemed to hear it.

His head, which was originally raised, slowly lowered, and then he looked straight ahead and uttered softly - "Here it comes!"

The voice was so plain that Tornado should not be able to hear it at all. However, it was like a drop of thick ink in clear water, which instantly pierced into Tornado's ears and made her seem to realize something.

And the fact happened in the next moment...

"call--"

A gust of strong wind suddenly rushed past Tornado, blowing the damaged clothes on her body, making her squint slightly. But when she opened her eyes again, she was shocked to find that since some time ago, countless light bands surrounded the entire world, completely enveloping her and Saitama beside her.

He raised his head and looked around again, and found that the densely packed space around him was completely submerged by two figures.

The originally empty and silent world was now completely filled with two figures, one in black and one in white. They were either fighting with fists or wrestling with each other, or one of them gained the upper hand and forcibly chopped off a limb of the other.

The whole world seemed to have become an ocean of possibilities. All that was recorded in the sky, on the ground, or on the sea was the figures of the two people captured with difficulty by countless photons at a certain moment.

And such figures filled the entire world in an instant.

"What the hell is going on here?! Is this a fight that a human could really start?!"

……

The view comes to the battlefield where One Punch Mist Core and Boros are fighting.

Fists, feet, elbows, knees and even any part of the body, Boros has now transformed into a super killing weapon that travels at sub-light speed.

In the battle that was fought at a scale close to the speed of light, facing the overwhelming attack that was said to be a sure hit, he had no intention of retreating and gave the most sincere response with everything he had.

With One Punch Mist Core's current strength, it is naturally impossible for him to accelerate himself to sub-light speed.

But this is his territory, and every cursed spirit here is his secret puppet.

He can swap with any of his secret dolls at any time.

His shikigami is everywhere in this realm, which means he is everywhere here as well.

The battle in the ultra-high-speed field is destined to be a battlefield where no mistakes can be made.

Any mistake here means a decisive victory!

The two fists collided fiercely, and the center of the collision seemed to be a nuclear bomb, with dazzling light and heat bursting out in all directions.

The sharp buzzing sound spread throughout the world.

In an instant, two blood flowers exploded, and even the blood and flesh were destroyed by the energy of the collision in an instant. The punch mist core and Boros' arm disappeared at the same time in an instant.

But even so, the two of them separated suddenly as if nothing had happened, and then turned around again at a certain moment and went towards each other.

At the moment of turning around, both Boros and One Punch Mist Core's originally damaged bodies were repaired in an instant.

The collision continued in the next round, and such confrontations had taken place between the two of them millions of times!

"Good, good, good! Well done! Beautifully done! This is the right way, this is how a real battle should be!!!"

"What will be the outcome of this battle? Will we win? Will we lose?!"

"Is the final result death? Is it life?!"

“None of this matters!”

"Today's battle will be recorded in the world and will be the most wonderful memory in the universe!!!"

The explosion of blood and fire, the collision of life and life, all of this made Boros extremely addicted. What is dominating the universe, what is becoming the overlord of the universe? How to feel the most extreme killing? All of these are not even one ten-thousandth of the pleasure that Boros feels at this moment.

Boundless pleasure flowed through his heart. Even the damage to his body caused by the meteor burst mode seemed so insignificant under this extreme pleasure.

The strong voice in his heart turned into a loud laughter that echoed throughout the space without him even having to open his mouth.

And this lack of focus on the battle inevitably gave him a subtle flaw in this fierce battle, which expanded infinitely in an instant...

"Shu~"

The figure suddenly crossed the sea, and with a fist of mist core, he reached out and gently stroked the water under his feet. A huge ship that was magnified ten thousand times was forcibly pulled out of the water by him.

The next moment, the giant wheel turned into a spot of light and merged into the fist of the mist core, and suddenly swung it at a flaw in Boros.

The terrifying force instantly passed through Boros's impenetrable energy net and punched him in the abdomen.

The terrifying energy was released at this moment, and a big hole was instantly torn open in Boros' stomach.

The terrifying force caused Boros to open his mouth and spit out blood. His whole body instantly turned into a beam of light and flew backwards.

However, this level of injury was nothing to Boros, and he stabilized his body in an instant.

Regardless of his injured body and bleeding mouth, Boros raised his head again, his huge single eye filled with excitement and enthusiasm!

"Yes, yes, that's right, that's it! I can feel that you are far from reaching your limit!"

"That's it. Only you are qualified to fight me!!!"

However, when he wanted to return to the battle, he suddenly felt a pressure coming, which made his smooth movements pause slightly.

"What is this?! Telekinesis!"

Turning his head back, Boros immediately saw Tornado with hair and clothes dancing wildly, blue veins all over his head, and an astonishing green light emanating from his whole body. He gave him a slightly terrifying smile.

"I told you, don't forget that I am your opponent!"

"He is not the only one who is qualified to fight you."

The power of the tornado did not have the ability to trap Boros' body, but his distraction for a moment gave someone time to prepare to end everything.

The next moment, when Boros came to his senses, a fist had already overcome all obstacles and arrived in front of him.

One Punch Mist Core is not a martial arts fanatic like Boros. He came here to collect experimental data, not to have a fair duel.

therefore……

"Goodbye, Boros—"

In a trance, Boros seemed to see a meteor in front of him turning into the purest light and rushing towards him.

To be more precise, there are more than one, but countless.

The meteor that ended the Paleozoic Era hundreds of millions of years ago is still engraved in the memory of the ocean, and now it will be engraved in every bit of Boros' blood and bones...

But there is blood and flesh everywhere, every bit is flesh.

Under the acceleration of this terrifying force, Boros' body was instantly disintegrated, and several parts turned into almost countless meteors that streaked across the world that reflected the starry sky.

This was the last roar between heaven and earth, and after it completely dissipated, the world finally returned to silence.

Looking at the frighteningly quiet world around him, Yiquan Mist Core did not rush to reclaim his territory. Instead, he stretched out his hand and pulled out a volcano from the sea beneath his feet. With a light rub, he rubbed it into a two-handed sword.

Seeing this scene not far away, Tornado, who was almost exhausted because of restricting Boros's actions just now, was full of questions.

"What are you doing? Isn't the battle over?"

In response, Yiquan Mist Core shook his head slightly and pointed his finger forward.

"No, it's not over yet!"

Hearing this, Tornado was startled and looked in the direction of the finger of the mist core of the fist. Suddenly, he saw the figure of Boros. His eyes widened and his face was full of disbelief!

"You're not dead yet?!"

"Of course! I won't die here!"

"Mist Core! I can feel that you still have power that has not been fully released! I could feel it the moment you appeared!"

"Now let out all your strength!"

"Is it a victory?! Or will this duel end with you, this world, and your companions being blown away together! Let's give it a try!"

"Full energy output!"

"Star-shattering roaring cannon!!!"

The terrifying energy exuded a hair-raising aura, and the high concentration of energy directly transformed into thick thunder, constantly sweeping across the surrounding sea.

Facing this terrifying force, A Punch Mist Core took a step forward, walked in front of Tornado and Saitama, and raised the long sword in his hand high.

At the same time, he also sent a telepathic message into Saitama's ears behind him.

"Saitama-san, can you do me a favor later?"

Saitama: “?”

"If we both lose or I lose, can you please help me solve the follow-up problems? After the matter is over, I will treat you to beef hotpot~"

Hearing the words "beef hotpot", Saitama's style immediately changed, from round to tough almost instantly, and he nodded heavily to the One Punch Mist Core:

"Leave it all to me!"

In an instant, the surrounding sea surface was choppy and stormy, and in an instant, dazzling flames burned from the east side of the sea level to the west side of the sea level.

Seeing this, Yiquan Mist Core smiled slightly, raised his sword and looked forward.

"Then this is the last resort."

He stretched out his hand and raised the two-handed sword on his shoulder. A blazing flame instantly rose from under the feet of Yiquan Mist Core, burning from the east of the sea level to the west of the sea level.

The originally dark world was illuminated by the red flames at this moment.

"At this moment! I will ignite the sea of ​​stars!"

The sea is burning, the starry sky is burning, the world is burning, and even the One Punch Mist Core is burning.

This burning power reaches its peak at a certain point, a certain moment, a certain instant, and explodes completely in the next instant.

……

White, the ultimate white...

There are no other colors in this world, only a dazzling white.

At this moment, it was as if the fuel for changing the world was burned up by the flames. Everything disappeared, leaving only a layer of extreme white.

In this extreme color, even time seems to have lost its meaning.

Until one moment...

"Kacha~"

It was like breaking glass or tearing canvas.

The extreme white was stained with a hint of blood.

The bright red quickly faded on the white, and the world reappeared at this moment...

This is a world made entirely of metal.

This is the spaceship of the Cosmic Dark Matter Thieves. After everything ended, everyone returned here once again.

At this time, Boros was lying here like a mummy, without any breathing.

After a few breaths, a translucent figure appeared beside Boros and stretched out his hand to him.

Just at this moment...

"cough--"

A shrill cough abruptly interrupted the action of punching the mist core. Boros' mouth slowly opened, and a slightly dry voice slowly came out.

"Did I lose?"

In response, Yiquan Mist Core slightly retracted his hand.

"No~, it's just a draw, or I'm slightly inferior. Look, am I lying over there too?"

As he said this, Mist Core pointed his finger at the ground not far away, where Saitama and Tornado were standing.

At the feet of the two men, there was also a person lying, or rather a charred corpse, and that was the body of One Punch Mist Core, and the one here was just a telekinetic clone of his...

“Hahahaha, stop lying…”

"You should still have strength~, I can feel your strength..."

"Your power should have other sources, just like I supply power to the spacecraft."

"The one here is just a clone."

Hearing Boros' words, Yiquan Mist Core's face was also shocked.

In an instant, a light flashed in Yiquan Mist Core's eyes.

This ray of light passed through the telekinetic clone of Yiquan Mist Core, through the charred corpse lying on the spaceship, through the vast distance of space, and suddenly arrived in City X, arrived at the basement of a villa, and came into the eyes of a figure sitting cross-legged on the ground.

Suddenly, he opened his eyes, a look of surprise on his face.

"Oh? Has the personality clone been discovered?"

"By whom? Saitama? Or…"

……
