King Piccolo is Born, They Were Dumbfounded

Li Xing didn't even listen, throwing a punch directly at him.

Bang.

Li Xing's fist slammed into the ground where Sun Wukong had just landed.

A massive sound erupted, and the ground cracked open like a spiderweb, spreading out in numerous fissures.

Sun Wukong's expression twisted instantly.

"You bastard, calm down and let me speak!"

"Hey, what are you doing? Are you even listening to me?"

Li Xing pressed his hands firmly against the ground, his body springing up as his legs, like a pair of shears, swept alternately toward Sun Wukong.

"You bastard, you're infuriating me!"

Sun Wukong's face flushed red with rage, his hands waving to strike out repeatedly at Li Xing, trying to stop his relentless assault.

The two traded blows, their strikes heavy and powerful.

The gale force generated by their combat swept through the surrounding dilapidated buildings, causing them to fracture and collapse with thunderous roars.

Many people who were already severely injured could only watch helplessly as falling boulders crashed down upon them in what was essentially a natural disaster.

They watched in despair as they fell into the widening fissures.

Countless people wailed and cried out in agony.

Sun Wukong's eyes were bloodshot with fury.

Unfortunately, Li Xing, hidden beneath the Black Armor, seemed to have a heart made of stone.

He ignored everyone else entirely, his eyes fixed solely on Sun Wukong.

Fixed solely on fighting him.

"Stop.

Stop it, you asshole."

Li Xing didn't answer, continuing to launch attack after attack at Sun Wukong.

Some television stations still had a residual signal.

Seeing the rumbling and the rising dust, those who feared nothing rushed over, hoping to get the scoop and broadcast it live.

Upon seeing this scene, everyone's expressions took a sharp turn for the worse.

"This is terrifying.

It's absolutely terrifying."

The two were like human bulldozers; the force of their clash was more than the reinforced concrete could withstand.

If they were to even graze someone, their bones would likely shatter.

"Holy crap, are they human monsters?"

"This is martial arts. This is the martial arts that our Aurora Group boss has always revered. Let me tell you, we have a special unit within our group. We also have a super-powerful mechanized force and an aerospace force, all established to prevent alien invasions."

Li Xing hadn't expected that among those who arrived, there would actually be people from his own Aurora Group.

They even knew some classified information.

"Bullshit! If your Aurora Group is really preventing alien invasions, then what's the deal with these damn Kyrieloid? Isn't this their doing? Where is your Aurora Group now?"

"Heh, what the hell do you know!"

"Bullshit! Then tell us, what the hell is your Aurora Group playing at?"

Bang!

The moment the reporter's voice fell, a dull thud echoed from the distant battle.

A stone flew through the air, striking the man who had just retorted against the Aurora Group.

Bang!

His head exploded, leaving behind a mess of flesh and blood.

"Ah!"

The reporters scattered in every direction, not even the people from the Aurora Group were an exception.

Pride was one thing, but their lives were another matter entirely.

Li Xing's face, hidden beneath the Black Armor, was flushed with a faint crimson.

"My apologies, I slipped up."

Sun Wukong wore an expression of fury.

"You bastard, you detestable wretch!"

Li Xing said nothing, continuing to trade blows with Sun Wukong.

All around them, a vast expanse of buildings lay in ruins.

The two grew increasingly fierce, their strength escalating, causing the destruction of the surrounding environment to become ever more terrifying.

"Kamehameha!"

Watching Sun Wukong, who was flustered and exasperated as he unleashed his energy blast, Li Xing felt not alarm, but joy.

He activated his Devour Ability and went straight to work.

Bang!

"What?"

Li Xing wished he could swallow it all.

Unfortunately, he only managed to consume half before the energy erupted, countering Sun Wukong's technique.

"Haha, Sun Wukong, let's continue this fight next time. This Martial Arts Tournament held by the so-called Aurora Group is quite interesting. I'll return in a month. Haha, I wonder which idiot organized this tournament, providing me with such a perfect opportunity. Once I wipe out you martial artists, Earth will be under the control of us Kyrieloid."

"Impossible, I won't allow it."

"Heh, whether you allow it or not, it makes no difference. Bye-bye, little brother."

Li Xing controlled his Black Armor and shot into the sky.

"Don't you run!"

"Flying Nimbus!"

Sun Wukong was desperate; he summoned the Flying Nimbus and gave chase immediately.

Li Xing's expression remained indifferent as his Black Armor gradually turned invisible. As for being called a chuunibyou, he couldn't care less.

At the same time Li Xing vanished, a group of fishermen in the middle of the ocean were loudly discussing the events that had just unfolded.

"Tell me, isn't this whole thing bizarre?"

"Bizarre my foot. What does it have to do with us? That's a problem for the big shots to worry about."

"Still, you have to admit, the cities hosting the Martial Arts Tournament are really unlucky. This Aurora Group is a real jinx."

"Hmph, what does this have to do with the Aurora Group? You're truly disgusting. Shouldn't you be condemning the Kyrieloid for this?"

"Exactly, exactly. This has nothing to do with the Aurora Group; they just suddenly appeared. Out of so many cities, only a hundred were affected."

"All the cities hosting the Martial Arts Tournament had problems."

"You idiots, can't you think for yourselves? Haven't you noticed? The cities where the monsters appeared were all ones with stronger martial artists. That creature must be deploying monsters based on individual energy levels. It wants to wipe out humanity."

"Stop chatting, the catch is here, come on!"

The group rushed to get to work, ignoring the events happening in the cities, having no heart to care anyway. For adults, the work in their hands and earning money to support their families were the most important things.

Soon, the crew began hauling in the nets and sorting the fish.

"Strange, why is there a rice cooker here?"

One crew member poked at it, noticing a reflection.

"Yeah, and there's something stuck to the top of the rice cooker?"

"How odd."

"Yeah, some moron's prank, I bet."

"How about it, brothers? Shall we peel it open and take a look?"

"Look at your ass! What if it's real? Hey, don't you dare peel it, you motherf— damn it, I, I, holy crap, my head is covered in a vast prairie."

"Holy crap, it's green, it's green, so green."

"Hey, my head is spinning, so dizzy, why is everything circling?"

"So many stars, there are too many stars."

"Hahaha, this King Piccolo has finally emerged! Hahaha, speak! You may each make one wish, no matter what it is, I can grant it for you."

The crew members were stunned at first.

Then, they were overjoyed.

"Wow, really?"

The aged King Piccolo looked down at the group of greedy humans.

He stared at the crew below with an evil smirk.

"That goes without saying."

"Is that so? I want one hundred beautiful women!"

"Greedy! I want one hundred million yuan!"

"I want a luxurious fishing trawler!"

The crew members who had emerged were all chattering away, shouting their wishes.

"I want to become a king!"

"Pfft, being a king is boring."

"Exactly, being a king is meaningless. I want Aurora Group! I want to become the chairman of Aurora Group!"

King Piccolo listened to these crew members, his mind going numb.

He sneered at these people, preparing to wipe them all out right then and there.

"Bullshit. Even if you have all that, if the Kyrieloid come, you'll all die just the same.

It would be better to just ask for strength—absolute strength.

If you don't like someone, you just go and take what you want."
