King, Emperor Engine

Orochimaru quickly browsed through the information shared by Ichigo Kurosaki.

"Star Destroyer 15,000 meters long and 4,000 meters wide, powered by Power Sphere..."

"It is equipped with more than 10,000 combatants and has complete living facilities. It is suspected of having 'Short-Range Spatial Jump Technology'."

After reading this, Orochimaru narrowed his snake-like eyes slightly, a hint of doubt flashing across them.

The tacit understanding between the Three Ninja allowed Jiraiya to provide the answer before he even raised his doubts.

"Most importantly, there's a guy named 'Boros'."

Jiraiya stroked his chin and said in Youyou voice, "As the overlord of this plane, I roam freely in the universe and have never tasted any defeat."

"The planet where this guy's race lives has evolved unparalleled physical qualities and regenerative abilities due to its harsh environment."

"Boros is also the most outstanding among his people."

"Because he was too invincible, he felt a deep emptiness, so he always wore armor that suppressed his physical abilities."

"Boros believed the Divination's Prophecy that there was someone on a distant Earth who could fight Boros to a standstill, so he spent a full seventeen years traveling to Earth."

Even this brief textual description had already sketched out the image of an ultimate powerhouse in Orochimaru's mind.

"It's just that their combat strength is strong."

Orochimaru licked his lips. "As long as the opponent isn't someone you can't understand at all, there's no need to be too afraid."

"I'm more interested in the source of the intelligence than that guy named Boros."

"How did that kid named Ichigo Kurosaki get this information?"

Jiraiya was completely baffled by the question.

Although he was in charge of negotiating cooperation with the Reincarnator in the Hero Faction, they clearly didn't intend to tell him these details.

"Don't worry."

Tsunade appeared between the two of them at some point, said crisply, "They don't have technology that surpasses yours; it's just that the executors are bold enough."

"Ichigo Kurosaki used Polyjuice Potion provided by a newcomer named Hermione to change his appearance. After calculating the speed and trajectory of the Boros space battleship, he used the [Fixed-Point Teleportation Spell] of Cosmo-science to directly infiltrate the enemy's starship, learn the alien language, and thus obtained this information."

"Fixed-Point Teleportation Spell..."

Orochimaru lowered his head and pondered for a moment, then smiled wickedly and said, "This plan has a mortality rate of over 60%. That brat Ichigo Kurosaki must have found a 'Safe Person' among the fellow Reincarnator and obtained a promise of resurrection before he did this."

"The quality of these new recruits is really high..."

"The alien invaders will arrive on Earth in half a day. When that happens, let us interdimensional visitors test their mettle."

Half a day is gone in the blink of an eye for those without relevant information.

For the heroes who received advance notice of the warship's appearance, this half-day was the most unbearable time of their lives.

They truly experienced what it means for "each day to feel like a year".

At this very moment, in the skies above City A, many renowned heroes have gathered together.

Teacher Saitama, Prisoner of Love, Superalloy Darkshine, Metal Bat, Vest Lord, Genos, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, Watchdog Man, Pig God, Drive Knight, Zombieman, Metal Knight, Child Emperor, Tatsumaki, Atomic Samurai, Silver Fang Bang...

Once hailed as "S-Class combat power holders," they raced against time to complete mission after mission under the doomsday warning, rapidly elevating their ranks.

Now, the strange, unruly individuals who were stirring up trouble in the outside world have been almost completely wiped out.

Meanwhile, the more rational and restrained monsters were all accumulating power in Orochimaru's secret headquarters of the Monster Alliance.

With the approval of Wang Yan, president of the Hero Association, major media outlets broadcast the operation live worldwide.

The official name is "fighting against God-level Disaster".

Each of these S-Class Hero has a large following.

But at this moment, what truly gives people confidence and hope are two other non- S-Class Hero.

One of them is a "commoner hero" who lacks talent but possesses the most steadfast belief and fights for it, currently ranked tenth in A-Rank, the Unregistered Knight.

If he is people's spiritual support, then the existence of another A-Rank No.1 is regarded by many as the absolute trump card that can truly crack the God-level Disaster.

"KING! KING! KING!"

"Go, Earth's strongest man!"

"KING is here!"

A cheer suddenly erupted from the fearless crowd of onlookers.

The heroes looked in the direction of the sound...

A burly man with slicked-back hair and three scars over his left eye slowly walked into the arena.

Thump thump thump...

Unexplained pulsating sounds rang out around King.

Similar signs would appear around him before each battle.

"That voice... it's King's [Emperor Engine]!"

"Look! Those S-class heroes! They even have confident smiles on their faces after seeing King appear!"

KING was found at the death scenes of monsters close to "Dragon" level 29 times, and many people attributed this to him.

Even many S-Class Hero mistakenly believed that King was conserving his strength and was a guy who didn't care about fame or fortune.

In reality, those achievements were all results that Saitama forgot to report to the association.

Wang Yan stood in the crowd, silently observing everything, and couldn't help but chuckle softly.

King is indeed very lucky.

The frantic heartbeat caused by fear was mistakenly taken as a "secret technique" and even given a cool name like "Emperor Engine".

An S-Class Hero once challenged him to a duel to test his true strength. Although he was too scared to fight back, he was mistaken for an attack that was "too fast to be seen with the naked eye".

Because of incredible luck, this fake has remained undetected until now.

Sometimes, Wang Yan suspected that KING was the Child of Fortune of this world.

However, compared to the original timeline of King, the current King has gained some strength.

After all, the Hero Association's diverse range of enhancement methods are not for nothing.

King has only two special skills—playing games and having good luck.

His special skills were put to full use in the Hero Association.

After joining the association as a trainee hero, KING quickly found common ground between the organization and the games he had played, and devoted 120% of his energy to it.

Strictly speaking, apart from Genos, the VIP Player who received special treatment, only KING understood Wang Yan's true intentions.

In just over six months, KING went from an ordinary person to someone close to S-Class Hero.

This was his opportunity, but it was also inseparable from his hard work.

The glory he has received today may one day in the future be truly deserved.

After all...

Saitama and Genos have already been designated as the Reincarnator by Wang Yan.

Bang!

A violent explosion suddenly rang out in the sky.

In an instant, a vast array of star-level battleships appeared in the sky above City A.

A shadow fell over the land, and people instinctively held their breath.
