Tatsumaki is the Hero Association's top esper, and even though they are both special ability users, Tatsumaki is no match for Oboro.

Several hours later, as dawn was approaching, Sekingar finally met Tatsumaki... To his surprise, Tatsumaki not only forgot the task he had given her, but also had a non-existent memory appear in her mind.

This provides a reasonable explanation for why she appeared in Z-City.

As for Oboro, she originally didn't want to take action against Tatsumaki, but this woman's personality was too troublesome.

We can't just send them away like that... they'll most likely come back and cause trouble again.

Just like Flashy Flash, so too does Tatsumaki.

Therefore, he could only 'delete' the other person's soul memories in the end.

Of course, given the woman's rude remarks, Oboro would definitely have to teach her a lesson before the Hero Association arrived.

Without the protection of her superpowers, Tatsumaki got quite a few spanks on the butt.

Flashy Flash and Tatsumaki's encounter should serve as a wake-up call for the Hero Association.

The appearances of Flashy Flash and Tatsumaki were merely a minor incident for Oboro and Saitama.

The problem is that their apartment building was severely damaged.

In particular, the effects of the Tatsumaki's superpowers caused cracks to appear in the walls of the entire apartment building.

The top floor even showed signs of slight tilting.

However, even so, the two could only continue living there as usual.

Long also spent a lot of money to hire some workers to repair the water and electricity, otherwise it would be unusable.

Looking around, within a radius of several kilometers of the apartment, there were no longer any streets or houses, only ruins... It was as if some natural disaster had occurred, but this building alone still stood, and even the nearby overpass had disappeared.

And so... things calmed down for a few days, and the Hero Association members indeed stopped bothering them.

One morning, while Oboro was still fast asleep, he heard a clear slapping sound coming from next door.

He discovered that Saitama was swatting mosquitoes on the balcony.

They understood immediately... Without even thinking, the Mosquito Girl from the House of Evolution appeared.

A mosquito outbreak.

It has already spread to Z-City.

Recently, television has started broadcasting reports about mosquito infestations in various regions.

In fact, quite a few mosquitoes also managed to sneak into his room through the cracks in the door.

But Long simply moved a finger, and in an instant, all the mosquitoes in the room were killed by the airflow, which simultaneously blocked all the gaps between the room and the outside world.

Then, I turned over and went back to sleep.

He wasn't too interested in the plot of One-Punch Man.

Unless it's Boros or Monster King Orochi, they can make him move around.

Soon, a week later, while Oboro was still asleep, he was once again awakened by the noise outside.

This time it wasn't Saitama swatting a mosquito, but a voice that had been calling for a long time.

"Teacher!"

"Teacher!"

Long rubbed his eyes, yawned, and pushed open the door in his slippers.

Peeking through a crack in the door, one could see a handsome blond man with a mechanical body standing at Saitama's door, calling out to him incessantly.

As expected... it's Genos.

Long looked sleepy.

His appearance startled Genos, who then looked over.

It seems they didn't expect that, besides the teachers, other people also lived in this building.

At that moment, Saitama's door finally opened.

The bald man, looking embarrassed, said, "You actually came..."

Clearly, he was finding it difficult to cope with Genos's persistent pestering.

In order to temporarily get rid of Genos, Saitama had no choice but to reveal his address, but he didn't expect that the guy would actually come looking for him.

"Hey, Saitama, who is it?"

Long pushed the door open halfway and gave him a wink.

"My name is Genos, Saitama- sensei!"

Genos responded.

"Uh... can you please stop calling me teacher?"

I'm not used to being bald.

"Master!"

Genos clearly misunderstood and immediately changed his mind.

"Even Master won't do!"

Saitama looked 'rejected'.

"Congratulations, Saitama, you've taken on a disciple."

With sleepy eyes, Long offered his congratulations, then closed the door again and went back inside.

Finally, the bald man sighed and invited Genos into the house.

"Go home after you finish your tea. I don't take on apprentices."

"Oh, your injury is healed?"

"Yes, my body is mostly machine, so as long as there are spare parts to replace it, there will be no problem."

"Oh."

"Teacher, what part did you use?"

"No parts were used."

"Ah... then what's that flesh-colored armor on your head?"

"It's meat! It's real human flesh!!"

"So that means you're already bald at such a young age, teacher..."

"... Yes, I'm bald, so what?! Who are you anyway?"

"Me? Teacher, would you like to hear my story?"

"No!"

"My name is Genos. Four years ago, when I was 15 years old..."

"Hey, can you even understand human language? I've already said I don't want to listen anymore."

Back in the house, Long washed his face, turned on the TV, and leisurely took out a can of juice from the refrigerator to drink, while 'eavesdropping' on the conversation between the master and apprentice next door.

After Genos recounted his experiences and how, as a cyborg of justice, he was bound to fight evil to the end and find the murderer who destroyed his hometown and family, he continued to talk incessantly about his belief in becoming stronger... The bald man finally snapped, "Summarize it in under 20 words!"

Oboro didn't bother listening to the rest of the conversation.

It's nothing more than Saitama wanting to get rid of Genos and preparing to tell the latter how he can become stronger.

Get rid of this person quickly.

It all started three years ago, in that summer...

However, before the conversation could even begin, danger was already looming.

Oboro also withdrew his consciousness.

The grunts sent by the House of Evolution have arrived.

There are six in total, led by the Armored Gorilla and the Beast King lion.

Long turned off the TV and got up to make breakfast.

He completely ignored the fighting and chaos outside.

Let Saitama handle it...

Speaking of which, the Mantis Man who broke into Saitama's room just now seems to have damaged not only the doors and windows, but also the ceiling... It's beyond repair, so if Saitama wants to continue living in this apartment, he'll have to change rooms.

Anyway, there are plenty of empty rooms... so it doesn't matter.

"Although these crystallizations of the House of Evolution appeared relatively early and were completely crushed by Saitama like minions, they were actually quite powerful... especially that lion." Oboro plated the food he had prepared, walked to the table, sat down, and smiled softly.

Judging from the strange people I've encountered so far, the Beast King Lion is definitely one of the strongest.

It is, after all, the second-ranked 'work' of the House of Evolution combat power.

By the time he finished eating, the battle was over.

If Saitama and Genos hadn't interrogated the gorilla, they wouldn't have wasted so much time.

"They went to the House of Evolution?"

Feeling that Saitama and Genos had left immediately after letting the gorilla go, Oboro put down his chopsticks and stroked his chin. "That Asura Kabuto wasn't weak either. When Saitama fought it, although he wasn't serious... it was still a good opportunity to observe and figure out the bald guy's strength."

"Never mind, I'll just treat it as a post-meal digestion and go take a look."
