[OUTSIDE WORLD]
In the desert, led by Silver Fang and Atomic Samurai, a group of heroes from the Hero Association descended from the jet.
Silver Fang smiled and said to Tatsumaki, "It looks like you're in trouble! Are these guys strong?"
Tatsumaki huffed, "Who asked you to come? These guys aren't something you can deal with. If you hadn't come, I could have easily gotten away. Now that you're here, be careful not to become a burden to me."
Atomic Samurai pondered, "It seems these guys are really strong to make the arrogant Tatsumaki say something like 'getting away'! But looking at their appearance, they don't seem to be monsters."
Silver Fang squinted his old eyes and said slowly, "That's not necessarily true. Have you seen any cracks on their bodies? Maybe their monstrous characteristics are inconspicuous!"
When Pirate King Roger, who had just rushed over from Otherworld, heard this, he immediately said unhappily, "Who said we're monsters? Although our current state can't be called completely human, we're definitely not monsters."
Sword God Ryuma looked at Atomic Samurai and said eagerly, "That person's swordsmanship seems very strong. I'll choose him as my opponent!"
Pirate King Roger pulled out the "Ace" saber, laughed and said, "That's not possible! There are too little opponent here. We have to fight for opponents ourselves."
After saying this, Pirate King Roger rushed toward Atomic Samurai, determined to claim him as an opponent before Sword God Ryuma could.
"Stop!"
Sword God Ryuma gave a low shout with annoyance and chased after Roger without saying another word. The two hadn't even fought against Atomic Samurai yet, and they were already fighting each other.
"???"
Looking at Sword God Ryuma and Pirate King Roger who were stumbling over each other while rushing towards him, Atomic Samurai had a deeply puzzled expression on his face.
"Infighting?" he wondered.
"Jihahaha!"
"I knew that Roger bastard wasn't following the plan."
Golden Lion Shiki laughed, not surprised by the scene in front of him.
As long as Roger was present, there could never be a plan or order.
[ELSEWHERE]
Lucas looked at Saitama in front of him, directly used Rinnegan's dojutsu, and took him to the independent space.
Saitama cried out in panic, flailed in mid-air, and finally landed on the snow-covered ground.
"Snap!"
After Saitama fell, his clothes that didn't conform to normal fashion standards also fell on his head.
"What the heck?"
"You brought me to this place for no reason. Are you some kind of weirdo?"
Saitama muttered unhappily as he put on his hero costume.
[CHAT GROUP]
Uchiha Madara: "Is this guy really that strong? It's totally unacceptable for a strong person to have this style."
Gengetsu Hōzuki: "Senju Hashirama's style isn't much better than his. Didn't you also love and fight him for a lifetime?"
Uchiha Madara: "Fuck off! I can barely accept Hashirama's style, let alone this guy."
Senju Tobirama: "Could it be that his funny style reminds you of being suppressed by my big brother?"
Space Overlord Boros: "Don't underestimate him. You'll know his true horror very soon."
[OUTSIDE WORLD]
Saitama, who had put on his hero costume, suddenly became serious. His appearance changed drastically compared to before.
"State your purpose!" Saitama clenched his fists and looked at Lucas with sharp eyes.
"To fight with you!" Lucas said bluntly, while simultaneously removing the Infinity Stones.
Saitama's eyes lit up and he smiled. "Really? Then I'll be happy to meet your request!"
BOOM!
As soon as he finished speaking, Saitama threw a punch. The powerful fist opened a huge passage in front of him, and terrifying energy surged towards Lucas. This force was enough to easily shatter a mountain.
"Good! Come on!" Lucas laughed and bombarded the air in front of him repeatedly. Air cannons like beams of light shot towards Saitama.
" Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack!"
This was one of the Ninja World's top taijutsu techniques, a physical attack that could only be released by the body of a Ten Tails Jinchūriki. The dense air cannons shattered the energy that Saitama had released and enveloped Saitama's body.
DONG! DONG! DONG!
The entire ice and snow world seemed to usher in doomsday. Endless gusts of wind began to sweep across the landscape, and one mountain range after another was smashed by the air waves.
"What a strong body!" Lucas lamented Saitama's physical strength—as expected of a man who had removed his limiter.
Lucas had absorbed a lot of magic power, but even his Ten Tails Jinchūriki's strong body couldn't be said to be stronger than Saitama's.
[CHAT GROUP]
Uchiha Madara: "Can a pure taijutsu attack do such a thing? It's an eye-opener!"
Senju Hashirama: "Perhaps because of physical limitations, our Ninja World doesn't have much potential for taijutsu."
Lucas: "The taijutsu in the Ninja World has little potential? Don't be kidding! Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack I just used is from the Ninja World. It's a move that can destroy Six Paths powerhouses with physical attacks alone."
Senju Tobirama: " Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack? It feels similar to the Gentle Fist of the Hyuga clan! The Gentle Fist must be derived from it, right?"
Gengetsu Hōzuki: "The reason why taijutsu has limitations in the Ninja World is because of a major drawback—recoil!"
Uchiha Shisui: "That's right! The more power you use to attack others, the more shock your own body will endure. And ninjas' bodies are generally fragile and not strong enough to withstand such impacts."
Senju Hashirama: "The Sage Body of our Senju family doesn't have this trouble, and the strange force technique can also mitigate the shock of physical attacks to a large extent. Of course, even so, taijutsu isn't as easy to use as ninjutsu."
Namikaze Minato: "Group Leader! Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack Strike you just used can't be used by just anyone, right? Ordinary people don't have such powerful strength, nor can they withstand that kind of overloaded exertion."
Lucas: "That's right! At minimum, you need the physique of a Ten Tails Jinchūriki, otherwise you won't be able to use the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack. But don't underestimate the physiques in the Ninja World. Even without the Eighty Gods Vacuum Attack, the physical skills that people with noble physiques can practice are also very terrifying."
Uchiha Madara: "How terrifying?"
Lucas: "In the original future, Uchiha Madara who became Ten Tails Jinchūriki was almost killed by taijutsu."
Uchiha Madara: "Are you kidding?"
Lucas: "No! The Konoha Forbidden Technique Eight Inner Gates can release incomparably terrifying strength. A Konoha Jōnin using this technique almost kicked you to death."
Uchiha Madara: "..."
Senju Tobirama: "Was Uchiha Madara being arrogant at the time? If he hadn't been arrogant, would that Konoha Jōnin have had any chance to hurt him at all?"
Lucas: "Second Hokage, you know Uchiha Madara too well!"
Uchiha Madara: "It's not your friends who know you best, but your enemies. That mediocre Tobirama has always considered me a great enemy, so it's not surprising he knows me so well."
Space Overlord Boros: "Group Leader, your body is also very strong! How did you train yourself to be able to compete with this bald devil in such a head-to-head physical competition?"
Lucas: "How did my body develop? I absorbed a Super Ten Tails, which contained two Ten Tails and the chakra of four Six Paths-level powerhouses. I absorbed the magic power of eight demons, which included the Demons and Earth Demons that strengthen the body.
I've absorbed the magic power of the mask and magical spells, including self-healing, immortality and bull spells that strengthen the body. I've also absorbed energy from the dark dimension, enhancing my life form and strengthening my physical power.
Of course, there's also the sixth sense from the world of Stealing Stars that can improve physical fitness a hundredfold, and the physical energy obtained after developing the top talents from the world of pirates. By the way, I also have passive skills that improve my own strength."
Space Overlord Boros: "That configuration is complicated! No wonder you can fight with this bald devil. But have you noticed? This bald devil seems to get stronger and stronger as the fight continues."
Lucas: "The place where we're fighting now is my personal space—the dojutsu obtained after opening the Rinnegan on the forehead Amenominaka! Why do you think I brought him here to fight?"
Senju Tobirama: "Group Leader, have you discovered something?"
Lucas: "The Infinity Stones and the Phoenix Force have terrifying powers in the Marvel world, and so does the power of the bald hero in front of me. I can feel a steady stream of energy from outside entering this space and flowing into his body, making him stronger."
[OUTSIDE WORLD]
Lucas laughed as he watched Saitama growing stronger during their battle. Lightning, flames, and vibrations appeared on Lucas's fists. He mixed them perfectly with Armament Haki and punched forward.
"Come on!" Saitama shouted with a frenzied expression, his whole being excited. "This is the battle I've been looking forward to—the feeling of blood boiling!"
"Let me see where your limits are!" Lucas stared at Saitama as various abilities circulated through his hands. Even the Infinity Stones that he had removed earlier returned to their places.
He didn't use this power immediately. He was just concerned that Saitama's strength might suddenly skyrocket, and he didn't want to be caught off guard.
