The Ultimate Weapon Was a Failure

Oboro and Saitama arrived at the House of Evolution's lair one step at a time.

Since the Armored Gorilla had already revealed the location of the base, Oboro directly opened a space-time portal and entered the underground base.

Meanwhile, Dr. Genus, the founder of the House of Evolution and a genius scientist, had already set up numerous traps and mechanisms in the space from the first to the eighth basement level.

Oboro strolled leisurely inside the House of Evolution, constantly moving between the various laboratories within the base. He saw many vessels used for cultivating and fusing genes... inside were created 'new species', their bodies covered in tubes.

In each laboratory, Genus clones were also studying and manipulating data, running around...

Strangely, these clones seemed oblivious to Oboro's arrival, continuing to busy themselves with their tasks.

It wasn't until Oboro appeared on the monitor's screen that Genus, who was at the bottom, realized the anomaly and immediately activated countermeasures and mechanisms... A large number of unfinished and finished monsters were released and began to slaughter indiscriminately, even many of the doctor's clones were brutally killed.

However, the riot by the herd failed to execute the strange man in the surveillance footage.

The other party quickly disappeared from the image.

"Who is this person?" Genus, his face pale.

His base was heavily guarded.

Let alone a living person, even a small animal trying to sneak in will trigger a warning.

He was now fully prepared to deal with the attacks from the bald man and Genos.

The gorilla who had narrowly escaped death had already relayed the message back, so Genus knew very well that the terrifying bald man and the cyborg would be visiting his base. But the person he saw on the surveillance footage was neither the bald man nor the latter.

However, considering that he entered the base so silently, and that even the experimental organisms were helpless against him, this man in the black suit is extremely dangerous!

"Oh."

In a dark corridor, Oboro walked slowly with one hand in his pocket.

In front of and behind him were strange creatures that had fallen to the ground and died, their bodies exploding in an instant.

He chuckled softly.

Even someone as powerful as himself, capable of shielding himself from the external senses of some creatures and hiding himself... could not escape the detection of technology. Simply put, the power system of technology is fundamentally different from his 'traditional' abilities; the two powers seem to exist within different frameworks.

His soul can act on some living beings, but it cannot interfere with or affect cold machines.

From this perspective, technological advancements do indeed have some flaws in certain aspects.

The base is currently filled with Genus's hidden surveillance and technological facilities, used to monitor and cover all areas, while also serving both offensive and defensive purposes, demonstrating the person's excellent scientific research skills.

Anyway, Genus won't die, and he'll live with the gorillas in the future... Oboro is considering whether to acquire some of the man's scientific achievements and bring them back to Hunter x Hunter.

Since it's about evolution... it does fit the 'attributes' of the Dark Continent quite well.

"Um?"

At that moment, Oboro noticed that Saitama and Genos had arrived on the ground.

It then disappeared directly into the space.

Moments later, the entire House of Evolution base entered a state of full combat readiness.

But faced with the overwhelming power of the bald man and the cyborgs, the fortress created by Dr. Genus was as fragile as a cardboard box.

At the very bottom of the base, deep underground, lies a spacious area.

Upon closer inspection, this space resembled a giant cage, with the surrounding walls and floor constructed from individual white cubes—a material of immense hardness. At the entrance, a ripple of spatial energy emanated as Oboro gracefully emerged.

The lighting here is somewhat dim.

As soon as he appeared, the huge monster that was squatting on the ground not far away with its back to him immediately straightened up, immediately sensed the 'unfamiliar aura', and turned its head with a sinister laugh.

The creature's face and features are very similar to those of a human, but its limbs and body structure are clearly more like those of a huge 'muscular beetle'.

It was the House of Evolution's strongest fighter, the Asura Kabuto.

At this moment, Long also saw the blood on his body and the large number of corpses lying at his feet.

They are clones of Dr. Genus... and there are many of them.

Clearly, before Oboro appeared, the Asura Kabuto was frantically slaughtering these clones.

He was still bound by heavy Chain... However, judging from his movements, these Chain could not restrain him at all, and could not even affect his actions.

"Hey! A strange face... How did you get in, little mouse..."

The Asura Kabuto stared at the smiling man in front of it, stuck out its slimy tongue, licked its lips, and stepped closer.

"Look... didn't you see? It was transported here using spatial teleportation..."

Oboro's expression remained unchanged, ignoring the unicorn's ferocious aura, and pointed to the void behind him that had shrunk to just a slit.

"Spatial teleportation?"

"What is that..."

"Is this some new trick from Genus?"

The rhinoceros beetle's features were distorted, its expression varied, and it was extremely disdainful.

"Never mind... Now that you're here, I won't let you off easily, hehe." Asura grinned, his tone excited.

Then he spat a glob of phlegm on the ground, "That bastard Genus dared to lock me up here! I'm the new human creation you all dream of! Both my intelligence and physical strength far surpass you old-era trash..."

Longjing quietly observed him, completely ignoring Asura's ramblings.

He just shook his head in disappointment. "From the perspective of strength alone, it seems to be a good resource, but unfortunately... it still has certain side effects, such as mental instability."

As soon as he finished speaking, a terrifying gust of wind exploded in front of Long, causing the entire underground prison to tremble and dust to fall.

Asura suddenly swung his fist and struck Oboro.

However, they were blocked by an invisible barrier of air between them.

Asura was also stunned.

He wanted to kill the human in front of him, simply because this seemingly frail fellow dared to point fingers at him in a judgmental tone? "Well, no wonder Genus said you were a failure. Now it seems that's true... Before I came, I had high hopes for you."

He said with a smile.

"Genus is on its way... The enemy you're facing isn't me."

"Don't worry, you'll soon see... what a real 'new human' is."

After speaking, the space beside him opened again, allowing him to disappear into it.

"???"

Asura's arm fell limply, and he noticed that the airflow that had blocked his attack had also disappeared.

He looked arrogant. "How inexplicable... Are you afraid of me, so you ran away?"

Hahahaha!
