Then, Genos looked down at the communicator, which was full of requests for emergency support, as monsters began to appear near the competition venue.
"We can't let them disrupt the teacher's match!"
After careful consideration, Genos decided to eliminate the monsters in the vicinity.
Genos went outside and, following instructions from the command center, quickly eliminated four monsters before heading straight for the last one.
Upon arriving at their destination, Genos saw many heroes lying on the ground, barely alive.
Genos walked over to them, helped one of the still-conscious heroes to his feet, and whispered, "Medic."
Suddenly, the shoulder section of the robotic arm rose up, and some small mechanical objects resembling fireflies flew out from it.
These small mechanical devices, codenamed "medics," quickly landed on the wounded, healing their injuries. Before long, their breathing became much more stable.
"Watch out for that strange man, don't let him out of your sight."
The only conscious among the wounded warned Genos.
The voice just fell.
A strange creature resembling a cockroach appeared behind Genos. The creature seemed confident in itself and did not immediately attack Genos.
Remembering the earlier reminder, Genos muttered, "Scout."
Another swarm of tiny, almost invisible mechanical objects flew out from behind Genos, spreading all around without the cockroach monster noticing.
After doing all that, Genos raised his hand and fired a cannon shot.
Unsurprisingly, the cockroach monster evaded it.
"The speed is indeed very fast, and the movement route is also very strange."
Genos's retina had already calculated the speed at which the cockroach monster had just moved.
This was also the combat system that Chu Yang helped him equip, which was more sophisticated than the one Dr. Kusno had designed before.
Genos's most basic ability is to automatically adjust his mobility based on the enemy's mobility.
This allows him to keep up with the speed of most enemies.
Its extremely high speed and unusual movement patterns make it very difficult for enemies to track the cockroach monster's actions.
Previously, Genos's visual system also wouldn't have been able to detect it.
But now...
The surrounding "scouts" had synchronized his movements with Genos's visual system and successfully predicted his route within three seconds.
Three seconds is enough!
Genos unleashed his full power, using his incineration cannon to preemptively cover the spot where the cockroach monster had landed.
In a violent explosion, the cockroach monster turned to ashes!
Genos seemed somewhat lost in thought.
"Senior Yang's modification skills are truly amazing!"
…………
House of Evolution.
On a large screen in the center of the laboratory, it was shown that nearby cities were being attacked by strange beings.
"Master, should we send out a legion to assist the other heroes in protecting the city?"
Genus was unsure of Chu Yang's current thoughts because the Hero Association had repeatedly shown them hostility.
Bang's case is just one example.
"Has the Hero Association sent us a request for help?"
"We haven't received any information yet."
"Ha, a bunch of arrogant idiots."
"My lord, shall we make a move, or should we wait for now?"
"Of course we have to make a move! This is a great opportunity for us to grab business!"
Chu Yang grinned mischievously, "Since we're destined to break off relations, let's strike first and make a name for our House of Evolution."
"The Hero Association isn't an official organization. What they can do, we can do too."
"The Hero Association is short-handed, but we have plenty of manpower!"
Boros's interstellar warship was only half dismantled, yet it supplied Chu Yang with nearly a thousand high-performance mechs, which, under the control of artificial intelligence, were enough to cover several surrounding cities.
If Chu Yang wanted to, he could put a large number of low-level heroes out of work right now.
"Send out 500 Mark Alphas first. Maintain numerical superiority during the battle. As for the rest, it depends on the situation. Remember! Only target monsters below the Dragon level."
"Leave the Dragon-level monster to Mia."
Dr. Genos, having received the command, entered the instructions into the console.
next second.
The factory's roof was opened.
Brilliant streaks of light shot into the sky, leaving countless white lines in their wake.
……
City C.
The competition venue.
Saitama had just returned from using the restroom when his match began.
"Be careful, your opponent this time is the previous champion, Bakuzan. He and Zack are not on the same level."
"He never holds back against the weak. If you can't beat him, just admit defeat quickly. Don't die in the ring!"
Before Saitama went on stage, the senior disciple, Kuchong, earnestly reminded him.
Saitama nodded.
Not only Master Kuchong, but the audience also started discussing it the moment they saw Baoshan appear.
The words implied a very negative opinion of this person.
Saitama, standing on the ring, wore a bright smile.
The previous champions must be very strong, right?
That way I can enjoy the fun of strategic gameplay!
Baoshan disliked him very much.
"What are you laughing at, kid?"
"I think you must be very good, which will give me more opportunities to make moves."
"Make a move? I think you're overthinking it. You can't even make one move."
Bakuzan grinned arrogantly and walked straight up to Saitama, gesturing at his body.
"I'll break your legs first. If you get hit by my Devil May Cry Low Kick, your bones will shatter into pieces, and you'll never be able to stand up again."
"Then it's your torso! If you take my Bear Hunting Middle Kick followed by the Asura Fist, your arms will be shattered and your internal organs will explode inside you."
Saitama looked down at Bakuzan's fist while staring at his stomach, and suddenly remembered something.
"Oh! Right, there's also the starting stance!"
Saitama squatted down into a horse stance, leaning slightly forward, and threw a punch forward as Chu Yang had taught him.
It was just a routine move, but Bakuzan happened to be blocking Saitama's way.
The fist slammed into Baoshan, sending him flying.
"Wait a moment!"
"is not what it means!"
"Hey!"
Saitama broke down again, staring blankly at his fist. He just wanted to complete a set of punches, why was it so difficult?
"Attending this conference is less interesting than taking classes with Yang..."
Disheartened, Saitama considered going home.
Water Dragon, who was waiting to go on stage in the passage, looked at Saitama walking towards him and asked in surprise, "You won the match, why do you look unhappy? I was looking forward to sparring with you."
Saitama scratched his head and said, "It was interesting at first, but it got more and more boring later on."
The water dragon laughed and said, "That's because you haven't met me yet."
Saitama was about to speak when Sonic walked over and interrupted him.
"Why hasn't any monster shown up after waiting for so long? I'm almost asleep in the lounge!"
Sonic sighed.
"As for the weirdo... it seems Genos went out to clean up; I didn't see him in his seat just now!"
