Now, with another 200 free attribute points evenly distributed, his attribute panel was once again greatly updated: [Uzumaki Naruto]
[Level: LV204]
[Class: Shadow Monarch]
[Strength: 1050]
[Agility: 1050]
[Constitution: 1050]
[Spirit: 1050]
"As expected of a Silver Rank Underground City, Dragon-level monsters are indeed 'valuable.' A Vaccine Man, a normal Dragon-level monster, allowed me to level up four times. I estimate that 'Above Dragon' or even 'Dragon Peak' monsters are even more lucrative."
"My four basic attributes have all exceeded a thousand now, meaning that even in my normal, everyday state, I can rival Might Guy when he opens the Seventh Gate of the Eight Gates Formation."
Naruto's eyes flickered a few times.
He wondered if he could fight Saitama if he entered Take-Mikazuchi Mode.
Of course, defeating Saitama was absolutely impossible.
At least not in the One-Punch World.
Saitama in the One-Punch World has an invincible cheat. Even against God Garou, he can unleash exponentially stronger power and defeat him.
It's estimated that even against the legendary gods, he would still One-Punch KO them.
In the ruins of A-City, the people who had survived the disaster were first stunned in disbelief, then erupted into earth-shattering cheers and cries.
"We're saved! We're saved!"
"It was that blond hero! I saw him defeat Vaccine Man."
"He's too strong! When did the Hero Association have such a powerful hero? He doesn't seem to be among the S-Class heroes?"
"Hero! Hero!"
Naruto, floating in the air, looked down at the people emerging from the ruins or leaving the shelters, smiled and nodded, then turned and flew away as a golden light.
Hero Association Headquarters.
Inside the command center, there was a deathly silence. All the staff members stared wide-eyed at the last images transmitted by satellite—Vaccine Man disappearing into thin air as if by magic, and—the blurry image of the blond young man who was completely unharmed after taking a terrifying Planetary Spiraling Shuriken.
"Energy… energy response… disappeared—"
A monitor reported with a dry voice, "Vaccine Man's life signal has completely disappeared! Confirmed—confirmed eliminated!"
"Simply… incredible! What kind of power is this?"
"A Dragon-level monster was instantly obliterated!"
"Quick! Immediately analyze his data! Search all archives! Is he a new hero?"
"If he's not a hero of the association, we must recruit him by all means."
The director almost roared his orders, and the entire command center immediately became busy.
Returning to his apartment, Naruto saw Saitama sitting at a low table reading a manga. He didn't disturb Saitama but instead opened the Underground City store, preparing to exchange for some items.
After entering the One-Punch World, the Underground City store unlocked items related to hero abilities.
Naruto started by looking at the S-Class heroes:
[S-Class Rank 1: Blast - Space Manipulation]
[Exchange Price: 500,000 Exchange Coupons]
[Ability Description: Possesses the ability to manipulate space, capable of teleporting people or objects to other spaces, or sealing enemies in other spaces. He can also gather gravitational energy in his fists to unleash techniques like Dimensional Cannon and Gravity Fist.]
"500,000 exchange coupons? Why doesn't he just rob someone?"
"The artifact from the Goblin Slayer World, [Gods' Dice], was only 100,000 exchange coupons."
Naruto's eyelids twitched, but he was quite tempted by Blast's space manipulation ability.
The main reason was that he had accumulated a good number of exchange coupons and could indeed afford it.
"If I mastered Blast's ability, combined with my Second Blood Demon Art, it would mean I would have both time and space manipulation."
"However, his techniques actually overlap with some of my own skills."
Naruto was a bit hesitant.
For space transfer, he had Flying Thunder God and Shadow Instant Kill Array. For spatial isolation, he had Absolute Cube. For transfer techniques, he had Daikokuten.
Even for techniques like Dimensional Cannon and Gravity Fist, Naruto's Planetary Spiraling Shuriken was not inferior.
"Let's continue looking down for now—"
[S-Class Rank 2: Terrible Tornado - Psychokinesis]
[Exchange Price: 300,000 Exchange Coupons]
[Ability Description: Upon exchange, you will acquire the world's strongest psychokinetic power. You can easily twist the earth, tear the sky, manipulate meteorites, and form an absolute defensive barrier. Your mental power is vast enough to cover an entire city and perform precise operations. Note: Requires an extremely strong mental foundation, otherwise there is a risk of brain overload.]
Psychokinesis.
This truly moved Naruto.
300,000 exchange coupons was also acceptable.
In the Dark Matter Thieves, there was a monster named Geryuganshoop, second only to Boros, who was hailed as the universe's greatest psychokinetic user.
But compared to Tornado, he was insignificant.
[S-Class Rank 3: Silverfang Bang - Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist]
[Exchange Price: 10,000 Exchange Coupons]
[Ability Description: Upon exchange, immediately master the profound techniques of the Grandmaster-level Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist. This is not merely a physical technique but a high-level combat method imbued with philosophy and ki. It combines offense and defense, capable of using softness to overcome hardness, neutralizing all attacks, and launching deadly counterattacks. When cultivated to its peak, one can perceive and destroy the opponent's 'ki' core.]
Naruto nodded: "Bang's martial arts are good; they could be combined with Gentle Fist."
"However, I have the ability to learn things instantly. For martial arts, I can just discuss and exchange with Bang, no need to spend additional exchange coupons."
[S-Class Rank 4: Atomic Samurai - Atomic Slash]
[Exchange Price: 100,000 Exchange Coupons]
[Ability Description: Upon exchange, gain top-tier swordsmanship talent and the profound technique of 'Atomic Slash'. This ultimate slash can cut anything at an atomic level, with sword speed too fast for the naked eye to catch. Requires a suitable blade (blade needs to be exchanged separately).]
Naruto chuckled inwardly: "Cutting at an atomic level? That's a big boast, but unfortunately, he's completely countered by Black S from the Monster Association. I wonder what his true upper limit is."
[S-Class Rank 5: Child Emperor - Ultimate Gear 'Brave Giant' and Knowledge Base]
[Exchange Price: 30,000 Exchange Coupons]
[Ability Description: Upon exchange, gain all of Child Emperor's black technology knowledge, as well as the complete design and summoning authority for his strongest weapon, 'Brave Giant'. Includes various high-tech weapons, analysis equipment, AI assistance, etc.]
Naruto merely glanced at it, uninterested in so-called black technology.
Other worlds certainly have stronger black technology, but clearly, the black technology of the One-Punch World is still not as powerful as absolute strength.
Metal Knight was also skipped with a glance.
[S-Class Rank 7: King - King Engine / Luck Aura / Gaming Talent]
[Exchange Price: Random]
[Ability Description: Passive ability. Upon exchange, automatically gain an extremely strong intimidating presence (King Engine), which can invisibly deter opponents; significantly increase luck, always turning misfortune into fortune; comes with top-tier electronic gaming talent. Note: Does not provide actual combat power bonus.]
