Getting Hauled In

The pedestrians nearby calmed down and stared at the half-naked man in front of them with strange eyes, looking around.

Their expressions were blank.

On one hand, they were astonished by Oboro's entrance, and then by his barely clothed appearance... Of course, the most surprising thing was that Oboro had fallen from that height and hadn't died, but was completely unharmed?! Oboro was also stunned.

He was stunned... because everything he saw was so familiar... it even gave him the illusion of returning to Earth.

This is an experience that neither Hunter x Hunter, Demon Slayer, nor One Piece could give him.

Although the previous three worlds were somewhat similar to Earth, they were essentially otherworldly in terms of customs and civilizations... and there was still a strong sense of difference between them.

But now, after just a few quick glances, Long judged that... the background of this world should be the most similar to Earth.

This changed his mood.

I'm so excited...

Although... it wasn't expressed through facial expressions.

"Is he a hero?"

"Doesn't look like a weirdo... He didn't die from the fall, so he must be a hero, right? But... what an unfamiliar face, is he a newly registered C-class hero? Probably one of those who isn't very famous..."

"Ah!! That's a pervert!"

People around him whispered and pointed at him.

Some women covered their eyes, blushing with embarrassment, and ran away.

Long remained indifferent to everything that was happening.

Instead, he narrowed his gaze and focused on the man closest to him.

After being stared at by Long's gaze, the man's face immediately went blank, as if he had lost his mind.

Long is reviewing this person's soul memories.

He arrived in this New World with a physical body, so without the memories of his predecessor, he could only obtain information about the current world by using certain methods.

"One-Punch Man... This world is it!"

A second or two later, Long looked away, and the man also came to his senses. He seemed to feel that something was wrong, but he couldn't figure it out. He quickly walked away.

"One Piece are just a higher world... Logically speaking, to directly travel to the top dimension, one should have to go through some leaps. After all, the One Piece I encountered did not have ancient civilizations and were considered relatively low-level in the higher sequence..." Oboro was shocked.

It was a world that was randomly opened to prevent it from being obliterated by the torrent of time and space.

Unexpectedly, it turned out to be a top-tier dimension.

However, upon considering the form of the Will Tree in this world, I understood.

That cosmic tree could not have been conceived or grown in a higher world.

"In the previous soul transmigration, I was passively transmigrating after activating my ability. Now, due to the Qi refining method and my ability, I have turned passive into active. So in a sense, I have broken free from the progressive rules of transmigration... Which world I enter depends entirely on my random choice."

"Tsk... but... One-Punch Man..."

Long stroked his chin, still unable to calm down.

Completely unaware of the commotion their appearance and sudden appearance from the sky were causing on the street.

Given his familiarity with One-Punch Man, he knew that... this world's system was incredibly vast. Not only was the background system so expansive that it encompassed the universe and multiple dimensions, but the power system, while not complex—a simple concept—was also incredibly diverse. Sources of power included martial arts, technology, superpowers, ninjutsu, monster transformations, God, and so on... If he remembered correctly, the level of power touched upon by the Bald Demon King when he fought against God, including the later battles between Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, Flashy Flash, and the Ninja King, all reached the level of the 'dimensional barrier'.

Of course, the central figure in Oboro's thoughts is Saitama, the protagonist of this world.

"Comparable to Dragon Ball Super 2? Even if that's an exaggeration... it's not very credible, but it's not surprising that the Will Tree treats me this way... because Saitama has broken his limiter, which means he can grow infinitely... such a person, at least in this world, has no bottlenecks, and is one with this world. Just like when I cheated in Hunter x Hunter using my 'soul-type' Nen... I'm already invincible. However, I didn't receive the Will Tree's 'favor' in Hunter x Hunter Nen, nor was I a key figure in the 'thriving' world of Hunter x Hunter."

"If you want to kill him, the first thing... is to 'Separation' him out of this world, otherwise, he is invincible."

Long subconsciously pondered this.

Then, he smiled silently.

"Seriously... the mindset of Hunter x Hunter has really taken root in my soul... wherever I go, I always think about resolving the biggest known crisis first, following the law of survival, and seeking stability."

"Hehehe... No, no, that won't do."

As he spoke, Oboro raised his hand and patted his cheek.

Saitama's power is dangerous and deadly.

But this person is actually harmless...

As long as you are a human being and do not harbor any absolute malice, the Bald Demon King will absolutely not attack you.

Even if you bully him, he'll just teach you a lesson at most; there's no danger to your life.

Thinking of this, Long felt relieved.

"I've finally arrived in a world where the basic social structure is almost parallel to Earth... I really miss it."

Long put aside his thoughts and sighed.

Is this world dangerous One-Punch Man?

Undoubtedly, it's extremely dangerous! Strange people are everywhere and could appear at any moment.

He even faces invasions from outer space and persecution and conspiracies from God in the multiverse... But for Oboro, this world is incredibly safe! Because ordinary monsters and dangerous factors can't harm him at all... Even if something terrifying appears, because of the existence of the bald demon king on the supercontinent of humanity... he will ultimately fail.

So... he can live here peacefully and relive his time on Earth.

Because the main theme of this world is that Saitama is invincible... no one can defeat him.

To disrupt the tone of this world like One Piece is completely unnecessary, without any reason or motive, and besides, it's too dangerous.

"What level of strength do Saitama, God, the S-class heroes of the Hero Association, including Boros, the leader of that Dark Matter Thieves... just do they all possess?"

This is what Oboro most wants to know right now.

Compared to himself, who is stronger? Although Saitama is terrifying... strength is not something that can be judged by a single aspect.

After thinking it over, Long shook his head again.

He sighed. "Why do I keep thinking about these things? Overall, although it's a top-tier world, it's also very dangerous... but compared to Hunter x Hunter and One Piece, this is probably the safest one... With Saitama around, I can easily and harmlessly gather resources... I can finally relax and not have to scheme and plot anymore, or think about those trivial matters. Even though I can't go back to Earth, reminiscing about the past here isn't bad..."

"Most importantly... this world is the most suitable for me, and the one I am most familiar with."

"It's a place where I can completely let my guard down and have a proper 'vacation'."

Thinking about it this way, a smile spread across Long's face.

Ee-woo ee-woo.

But before he could even compose himself and take a step forward, two police cars with flashing lights suddenly appeared nearby.

Several stern-looking police officers got out of the car and, without saying a word, handcuffed him.

"Sir, please cooperate with us and go back for investigation."

"..."

It wasn't until this moment that Long realized what was happening.

He noticed that there were other people around him taking pictures of him with their phones, gloating over his misfortune.

"Good."

Long smiled slightly, appearing very carefree.

This feeling... was inexplicably tinged with a sense of 'closeness'.

Not bad... My first time in jail.

He had never experienced this while he was on Earth...
