Blizzard tried to recruit Yoru Machi into her group, hoping to gain the support of his powerful companions. Their conversation was interrupted by news of a Dragon-level meteor heading for Z-City, and Genos received the Hero Association’s order to help stop it.

• Blizzard visited Yoru Machi’s home and pressed him to join the Blizzard Group, but he refused and said he would act alone.

• An emergency broadcast announced that a meteor was about to strike near Z-City, with an estimated disaster level of Dragon.
• Genos received the Hero Association’s emergency mission for nearby Rank S Heroes to try to stop the meteor or withdraw from the area.

As a meteor threatened to destroy Z-City, Genos rushed to its impact site while Yoru Machi and Saitama prepared to follow. Genos met Silver Fang and Metal Knight there, and Metal Knight’s barrage failed to stop the approaching meteor.

• Genos told Silver Fang that he lacked confidence but had come because his teacher taught him to challenge his limits.
• Metal Knight launched a barrage at the meteor, but it emerged from the smoke and continued falling.

Genos tried to destroy the Dragon-level meteorite with his Incineration Cannon after Metal Knight’s weapons barely damaged it. As Genos pushed his body past its limits, Bang suspected his teacher belonged to the Extreme Style, and the meteorite still continued to fall.
