The entire city became extremely quiet, like a giant quietly falling asleep.
Chu Yang's figure appeared around the city; he was setting up a barrier, intending to envelop the entire D-City.
The barrier could activate at the moment the city suffered a devastating blow, deflecting most of the damage.
This way, the collateral damage to the city from Chu Yang's battle with the 'Giant' Margoli could be minimized.
Half a month later.
The 'Giant' Margoli appeared in D-City.
Its towering, colossal body was incredibly oppressive, with its chest upwards completely obscured by clouds.
Every step it took would unleash terrifying gusts of air.
The Hero Association classifying it as a Ghost-level Weirdo was incredibly foolish; its true strength was undoubtedly above Ghost-level, it was only because Saitama was too strong and defeated it with one punch that Margoli appeared like a weakling.
Under the emergency broadcast, people began to frantically flee the city again; many who saw Margoli's enormous body were so terrified they couldn't move.
Margoli waved its large hand, and the horrifying wind pressure directly annihilated a forest on the city's outskirts.
Many people witnessed this scene through television news broadcasts.
"How can we escape the attack of such a behemoth?"
The citizens stared blankly.
A sense of despair gradually spread.
"We'll die even if we try to escape like this!"
"Didn't you see?"
"That giant just clapped its hands, and the entire forest disappeared!"
"Instead of desperately trying to squeeze out, it's better to just stay put and wait to die…"
Someone in the crowd yelled hysterically, clearly having broken down.
"Where are the heroes? Where are they?"
"Please save me, I'll never say bad things about you again!"
Some were angry, some pleaded, some were sorrowful, some laughed maniacally.
Between life and death, all the myriad states of sentient beings emerged one by one.
Chu Yang stood at the top of a tall building, silently watching this scene.
The 'Giant' slowly walked towards them; its target was not actually D-City, it was merely passing by, but the city was blocking its path forward, which was very annoying.
Margoli raised its arm high, its expression indifferent, as if it were a demon god responsible for judging the sins of all beings at the moment of the apocalypse.
It swung its arm with force, and the wind pressure caused by its terrifying strength even began to distort the surrounding space.
The fierce wind did not destroy the city as Margoli had imagined.
Instead, it was blocked by an unknown force the moment it approached the city.
Four purple barriers lit up around D-City.
Then the barriers converged, firmly protecting it within.
Four Purple Flame Formation!
The citizens looked up in confusion, only then realizing that they were surrounded by solid walls formed by purple flames.
"What is this?"
The scientist Fukegao, standing on Margoli's shoulder, pushed up his glasses.
Margoli and Fukegao were brothers.
It was because his younger brother, Margoli, drank the ultimate steroid formula created by his older brother, Fukegao, that he became a super giant.
While growing larger and stronger, his intelligence also sharply declined; the current 'Giant' Margoli was not much different from a mentally challenged person.
"Brother, purple walls!"
"Whether it's walls or anything else, if it blocks our way, clear it all out, Margoli!"
"Understood, brother."
Margoli stepped towards D-City; its weight of hundreds of thousands of tons pressing on the ground, each step causing vibrations like a magnitude seven earthquake.
Countless citizens crouched on the ground, trembling uncontrollably.
Fukegao looked down at the ground coldly, a smile playing on his lips; at this moment, he seemed to be the master of the world.
In the distance, a small black dot was rapidly approaching.
Fukegao's smile faded, and he said impatiently, "It's those self-proclaimed heroes again, coming to their deaths one after another, like bothersome mosquitoes. Margoli, kill him."
"Okay, brother."
Margoli stared intently at the small black dot; as the opponent approached, he suddenly threw a punch, the force of which tore at the space in front of him, forming an even larger storm.
Chu Yang swayed in the strong wind, and the barrier behind him began to flicker; he realized that if they fought near here, the Four Purple Flame Formation would eventually be destroyed.
The next moment.
Chu Yang began to form hand seals.
A massive wooden golem burst out of the ground.
Ten meters!
One hundred meters!
One thousand meters!
Ten thousand meters!
In the blink of an eye, the wooden golem's size was comparable to the 'Giant' Margoli.
In addition, there was a wooden dragon coiling around the wooden golem's waist.
The dragon's head was held high, its gaze sharp as it stared at the giant.
Chu Yang stood on the wooden golem's shoulder, looking across at Fukegao.
"How can something so outwardly impressive compare to Margoli?"
Fukegao sneered, "Smash him for me, Margoli!"
The giant roared and charged towards the wooden golem, its crude attacking style like a wild beast.
The wooden golem reached out and gripped the giant's mouth, immediately silencing its roar, then delivered an uppercut to the giant's jaw.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Margoli was struck by the powerful punches, stumbling backward repeatedly, his entire body suddenly leaning back, almost falling, narrowly regaining his balance.
Fukegao was not so lucky; he staggered and slipped from Margoli's shoulder, plummeting from a height of ten thousand meters.
"Margoli!!!"
Fukegao screamed his brother's name in terror; the giant slowly lowered its head, only then realizing its brother had fallen.
"Brother!!!"
Margoli excitedly reached out to grab Fukegao.
"No!!!"
Fukegao seemed to realize something and let out a piercing scream.
Splat!
A burst of blood splattered from Margoli's palm; when he opened his hand, there was no sign of his brother, only a pile of bloody flesh and residue.
Chu Yang sighed, "The outcome of history is always surprisingly similar…"
Margoli was stunned for a moment, then looked up at the sky and let out a long, mournful roar, lamenting, "Brother!!!"
The brother-complex giant fell into extreme rage!
The wooden golem before him was seen as the culprit, locked in its crimson eyes.
Thump! Thump! Thump!
Margoli charged forward, causing the surroundings to shake violently.
Seeing this, Chu Yang controlled the wooden golem to crouch down, adopting a sumo stance, to meet the enemy's savage charge.
Boom!
The two behemoths collided fiercely, and the shockwave generated by the impact blew away the helicopters that were live broadcasting from high in the sky nearby.
Out of five helicopters, only one remained after the storm.
The LED screen in D-City's center was live broadcasting this scene, relying on the sole remaining helicopter, and countless citizens were watching with bated breath.
The Four Purple Flame Formation once again blocked the storm, but the barrier had dimmed considerably, clearly unable to withstand the next attack.
"I need to get this guy further away…"
Chu Yang murmured.
The wooden golem beneath him responded simultaneously, its power fully unleashed, pushing Margoli forward relentlessly.
Deep, chasm-like ravines were left in the wake of their struggle.
"You bastard!!!"
Margoli gritted his teeth, veins bulging all over his body, squeezing out all his strength, barely managing to steady himself.
He was about to counterattack.
Unexpectedly, the wooden golem opposite him moved first; by the time he reacted, he found his arms had been clamped by the opponent.
The small black dot standing on the wooden golem's shoulder began to emit dazzling azure lightning.
Margoli suddenly felt a chill run through his body, his heart pounding violently, an indescribable fear spreading within him.
"Let me go!"
Margoli struggled frantically, trying to escape, and space and the ground everywhere vibrated!
