His figure instantly flipped several times in mid-air, his feet carrying supersonic shockwaves as he slammed towards Saitama's head.
"Wind Blade Kick!"
But Saitama easily dodged the kick by sidestepping it, while simultaneously raising his right fist upwards as if waiting for his prey to walk right into his trap!
"I've got you checked!"
The words were finished.
Sonic, now completely unable to dodge, fell straight down towards the fist below.
And his crotch was perfectly aligned with the bullseye.
The moment that punch hits the target.
Even Asuramaru, the swordsman's swordsman, couldn't help but gasp. Sensing the swordsman's body, his expression froze.
"It's shattered... it really is shattered! Now I'm truly a one-testicle ninja..."
Meanwhile, the outside world...
Seeing this, Saitama felt a little embarrassed and quickly apologized.
"I'm sorry, I didn't mean to. I just wanted to stop short of causing a ruckus, enough to get the point across..."
On the opposite side, Sonic's figure flipped and turned.
He immediately retreated to a safe distance, enduring the excruciating pain in his groin, and said in a calm, cold voice.
"I am the strongest ninja, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, but I won't be working for a while. Now that I've found a worthy opponent like you, I'll just have to keep training until we settle this!"
Having said that, under the piercing pain, Sonic could no longer maintain his calm expression, and at this moment he...
His legs were clenched together, his body trembling slightly uncontrollably, and he was covered in cold sweat, but he still pointed at Saitama in front of him and questioned him.
"May I have your name?!"
Seeing Sonic's expression contorting, Saitama had no choice but to reply.
Saitama.
Having obtained the name he wanted, Sonic continued pointing at him and reminding him, "Saitama, the next time we meet will be your death day. I, Speed-o'-Sound Sonic, will definitely take you down!"
In response to such a passionate statement, Saitama also gave his own reply.
"Then let's do our best!"
But to Sonic, those words sounded like a provocation!
But it's too late now.
Completely unable to resist, Sonic didn't linger, and several shuriken appeared in his hand at some unknown time.
He threw it towards the ground in front of him.
It exploded instantly, sending up clouds of smoke and dust, and Sonic's figure disappeared completely into the smoke and dust.
When the smoke and dust cleared.
Saitama stood in the woods, watching the figures disappear, but didn't pay much attention and turned back the way he came.
"How about we go get udon tonight?"
On the other side.
Sonic, on his escape, tried his best to get as far away from the place as possible, but the injury in his groin was causing him great suffering.
Seeing this, Asuramaru in the sword knew it was time for him to act, and immediately released jet-black threads.
Connect to Sonic's body and pull him into the spiritual world!
It's also an illusion.
However, Asuramaru did not allow it to enter a subconscious state. If there was any reason for this, it was probably out of sympathy and a desire not to waste too much time.
Within the illusion.
Sonic turned his gaze and found himself still standing in the woods he had just fled from, but his body was completely unharmed.
Saitama stood there expressionless, just as before.
"What happened?"
Looking at everything in front of him, Sonic frowned and immediately noticed something was wrong.
He began to quickly analyze the situation in his mind.
Was what happened just now all an illusion? No... how could that sense of realism be an illusion? Then what's going on now?!
He cautiously scanned his surroundings.
His hand was already on the blade, and he looked at Saitama in front of him again, questioning him coldly.
"Who are you?!"
Upon hearing this, Saitama replied expressionlessly, "I am Saitama, a hero who does it for fun."
A similar answer rang out again, and Sonic felt his body; it was indeed completely unharmed.
This doesn't seem to be an illusion either.
But how do you explain that now?
Faced with this situation, Sonic quickly calmed down and tried to find some important clues.
As his gaze shifted to the side, landing on a pile of headless corpses, a sudden inspiration struck him!
It seems they've already figured out the truth behind this!
Chapter 167 The Guy Who Pushes His Luck
"You're not Saitama, my intuition is always very accurate."
Sonic's eyes flashed coldly as he fixed his gaze on Saitama opposite him, trying to find a flaw in his expression and gaze.
It's a pity.
Saitama across from me had an expression that said, "I'm not listening," and I couldn't find any flaws in his story.
But Sonic didn't stop; instead, he continued to express his views.
"After killing someone, my body was strengthened to some extent. At that time, I wondered if the blade in my hand was given power by the legendary Deity."
I haven't had a chance to explore it yet, but according to legend, that Deity will test the sword master. Considering the current situation, there's only one answer I can come to!
You are Deity!
And this place is merely a test for you!
Hearing these accurate guesses, Saitama's lips curled up slightly. "Interesting. You saw through it so quickly?"
As they were talking.
Saitama's body disintegrated into a cloud of black smoke, from which a pair of blood-red eyes stared intently at Sonic in front of him.
Even after receiving this answer, Sonic remained suspicious and did not lower his guard at all.
Instead, he asked more seriously and tentatively.
"Tell me, what is your test?"
"You seem to be getting a little too arrogant." Asuramaru controlled his Demon Power, and in an instant, jet-black spikes surged from all directions, piercing through his body.
They completely contained it in place.
Despite being impaled and held in place, Sonic remained undeterred, coldly retorting, "If you're going to test me, then hurry up. Do you think even Deity can talk big?"
His whole body was soft, except for his mouth, which was really hard!
Asuramaru witnessed this firsthand.
However, his expression remained unchanged, and he continued speaking with great interest.
"How interesting. Is this how someone can be so arrogant even when they're being bullied? But the desire for revenge beneath that tough exterior is truly formidable."
Do you want revenge on Saitama? I can lend you my power.
Sonic had initially thought there would be some special test, but the fact that he was given power directly caught him somewhat off guard.
But why wouldn't he accept power offered for free? He immediately replied coldly, "Since that's the case, then lend me all your power!"
Seeing the disheveled figure demanding power from him, Asuramaru couldn't help but remind him, "Those who push their luck won't have a good ending."
"That's none of your business."
Sonic remained unfazed, replying without any attempt to flatter or back down!
In response to these words, Asuramaru smiled and replied, "Very good, as long as your will remains firm, I will give you strength."
As they were talking.
The black mist shattered.
A light armor emerged from it, with a pair of crimson eyes beneath a demon mask directly above it, while the armor below was shrouded in pitch-black mist.
Upon seeing this armor, Sonic's first reaction was, "So this is what the legendary Asuramaru looks like?"
However, Asuramaru didn't care. It was nice to change her appearance occasionally, except when using her true form's power against Sonic.
We still need to switch the template.
However, we still need to remind you for now.
"But if your will falters even for a moment, I will take over your body!"
Upon hearing this, Sonic's expression remained completely unconcerned.
"Want my body? Go ahead! All I want now is to become stronger and defeat Saitama!"
Asuramaru also greatly appreciated this attitude.
"You should have already felt the changes in your body, that's after you used my Slaughtering Warrior technique."
I can use this to extract a portion of the power of the fallen strongmen and Nourishment into your body, so if you want power, then unleash your desires and kill to your heart's content!"
This was indeed Sonic's biggest concern, and now that it has finally been answered, he has begun to think about his next steps.
Can you become stronger simply by killing?
However, there seems to be no need to kill the weak, because the forces that Nourishment are too few!
Killing is unwise; killing too many will make you a target.
Then it must be someone weirdo!
No one will care how many they kill, and the monsters are far stronger than humans, so they will Nourishment even more power to themselves!
Saitama, you just wait!
I'll be here to kill you soon!!!
Sensing Sonic's determination, Asuramaru felt relieved. "Then begin your revenge, Sonic!"
The words were finished.
The snap of fingers rang out, and Sonic was banished from this space, but his voice echoed in Asuramaru's ears.
"I know without you telling me!"
"A stubborn tsundere, huh? Interesting..." Asuramaru's lips curled up slightly, a stark contrast to his usual kind and gentle demeanor.
It's nice to change things up once in a while.
When consciousness returns to its original state.
Sonic in the forest opened his eyes again, feeling the pain in his groin, yet he was incredibly excited!
"Saitama, just you wait!"
He limped out of the forest, wondering where to hunt down the monsters, but after a brief moment of thought...
He already had a goal.
