What impressed Aizen most about Saitama was his unwavering willpower before breaking his Limiter.

100 push-ups, 100 sit-ups, 100 squats, and a 10-kilometer run every day.

The training, which may seem somewhat ridiculous and could be completed by any moderately strong human, was clearly not a simple exercise for Saitama back then.

It was a true, Hell ordeal.

He was able to do it day after day, year after year, without ever stopping.

Clearly, Saitama's willpower is unmatched by ordinary people.

Secondly, Aizen saw in Saitama a dedication to his dreams.

Dreams are a wonderful word; they symbolize humanity's hopes for the future. However, most dreams are as distant as illusions and are difficult to realize.

Not everyone has the belief in pursuing their dreams.

Compared to steadfastly pursuing a dream, it's obviously easier to give up or choose a different dream.

Saitama is different!

His dream of becoming a hero has never changed since it was born!

His dream was simple and pure, without any selfish desires, and he didn't care whether he was well-known or whether he was in the Spotlight or in the dark.

He wanted to be a hero, simply to punch a monster away, simply because of his sense of Justice, simply because of his interest.

For Saitama, a hero doesn't need to be shrouded in glory or remembered by the world.

Finally, and most importantly!

Saitama possesses an incredibly pure nature that is rare among ordinary people.

He doesn't care about other people's opinions, and even with his great strength, he still goes to discount stores to buy ingredients. This nature of his is perhaps the main reason why he was able to break his Limiter.

However, these are all just Aizen's speculations. If it were only these three points, it would be impossible for Saitama to be the only one in the vast Universe to possess such qualities.

But only Saitama broke free of the Limiter's constraints.

Therefore, these can only be used as a reference, and cannot be the main reason why Saitama broke the Limiter.

The only possibility is Saitama himself.

He is special!

This applies to both humanity and the world.

The Richest Man in the America: "Although the Limiter is a concept in Boros World, we all have one within us."

The Richest Man in the America, "It actually represents the limit of our potential growth."

The Richest Man in the America, "For example, Aizen, if he hadn't joined the Chat Group and didn't have the Hogyoku, it would have been very difficult for him to break through the boundary between Bleach and Hollows."

Ordinary Group Owner: "The bottlenecks encountered in each Realm of cultivation are actually Limiter. However, after breaking through this Limiter, you will encounter a new and stronger Limiter, instead of a direct path to the heavens like Saitama!"

This is what makes Saitama different from them.

In most worlds, regardless of the cultivation system, there will be bottlenecks and limits.

After breaking through this bottleneck and limit, your own strength will increase, and you will have a path to continue to grow; however, this path can only allow you to pass through smoothly for a period of time, and when you reach the end, there will still be obstacles blocking your way.

If you want to become endlessly stronger, then you must break through these obstacles time and time again.

Let alone a world of cultivation, even in a world like Dragon Ball, doesn't every Saiyan form and even their hair color symbolize a Limiter?

But Saitama is different; his Limiter is disposable, and once it's broken, it's gone.

His future is a smooth and easy road to success.

As Saitama said, the self of the next day can always easily defeat the self of the previous day.

Even without encountering any powerful opponents or facing any pressure, Saitama's strength will still reach the end of the world over time.

From this perspective, in Su Yunqing's eyes, Saitama is actually more terrifying than Reinhard or even Bai Xuan.

Although Reinhard is favored by the world, he is not the protagonist of the world, and there are only a few who can threaten him in the world's power system.

Without much pressure, his growth is actually limited, because the world doesn't need him to be that powerful.

Bai Xuan was Bestowal Authority by the world, and his power amplification covered the entire world, meaning that the whole Earth was helping him cultivate.

The key point is that his [Nature Authority] is an almost conceptual power, encompassing not only life and elements in nature, but also science and Faith.

It is said to Bestowal the World Consciousness, but the power it exhibits is completely unlike that.

Moreover, Bai Xuan's increased power will not weaken because of Earth's decline, because he is not bound to Earth, but rather Earth unconditionally supports him.

This was something that puzzled not only Su Yunqing, but also Bai Xuan.

Earth seems to have been too kind to him.

However, even if he asked the World Consciousness World Consciousness, it would not provide an answer to this question.

Even so, in Su Yunqing's eyes, Bai Xuan's cheat ability was not as great as Saitama's.

Bai Xuan still needs to cultivate and will encounter bottlenecks in the future. He will eventually have time to break through the shackles binding him.

But Saitama didn't; he didn't need to consider that issue at all.

The only flaw is that he lost his hair after breaking the Limiter.

This is no small matter.

If you gave Su Yunqing a choice between her hair and breaking the Limiter, Su Yunqing would actually hesitate.

They might even choose their hair.

Because she has already joined the Chat Group, she can continue to grow stronger even without breaking the Limiter, it will just take much longer, but she doesn't lack time right now.

As for the lack of emotion

In fact, Su Yunqing had some doubts about this.

Saitama did say something like, "I gained the strongest power, but I also lost my joy, anger, sorrow and happiness," and he also told King that his emotions were becoming increasingly detached.

However, it's easy to see from the story that Saitama still displays different emotions when faced with different situations.

For example, the Rage when you can't swat a mosquito, the passion and excitement when facing the Subterranean King in your dream, and the fighting spirit to the point of madness when battling King in the game!

These all reflect Saitama's emotions.

Perhaps it wasn't breaking the Limiter that caused Saitama's emotional deficit, but rather that his overwhelming power rendered him unable to sense danger or fear, and he felt no sense of impending crisis.

Because Saitama was always alone before Genos, he probably rarely experienced other emotions such as concern, sadness, or pain.

Therefore, Su Yunqing felt that it wasn't that Saitama lacked emotions, but rather that Saitama, who inherently possessed a simple nature, experienced even fewer emotions after being free from danger and fear, coupled with living alone for a long time.

That's what gave him the illusion that his feelings had faded.
