Sailing at Sea: The Breath of the Day at the Start

"Tornado, the world's strongest esper, I've wanted to fight you for a long time."

With her hair flying and her eyes crackling with electricity, Sykes stared at the tornado before her, her fighting spirit boiling.

She stretched out her hand, unleashing her superpowers, and a powerful gravitational force pressed down on Tornado.

It caused the air around her to distort slightly.

But the tornado remained completely still.

Sykes' eyes widened slightly. "Nani!"

Tornado looked at Sykes as if she were an ant, her calm demeanor tinged with a hint of mockery: "You think you can defeat me with this level of skill?"

"Are you kidding me, big cow?"

Her superpowers exploded.

Sykes' body was forcibly restrained, as if tied by a rope, and she was slammed into the ring after being swung around once.

boom!

Although Sykes broke free of her restraints just before slamming into the ring, the intense humiliation still caused veins to bulge on her forehead, her eyes to glow white, and her superpowers to go completely berserk, lashing the earth like lightning, causing the surrounding rocks and distant hills to float up.

"Damn it... little bean!"

She suddenly raised her hand towards the tornado in the air, and a powerful beam of energy shot towards it.

Tornado raised its hand to block.

The energy beams transformed into countless projectiles that flew in all directions, exploding violently on the arena floor and in the surrounding air. For a moment, the deafening roar continued; each projectile was powerful enough to level a building.

The two continued to battle using their superpowers.

Gravity, torsion, rocks, energy—all can become weapons for the two of them.

Furthermore, since both of them can fly, there is no issue of being knocked off the stage; the only options are defeat or death. Therefore, their superpower battle is many times more intense than before.

Both the freak and the hero below the arena had to retreat a hundred meters to avoid being caught in the aftermath of their battle.

With a deafening roar, a fierce wind howled, and surging air currents rolled out in all directions beyond the arena.

A tentacle appeared out of nowhere beneath the spectator wolf, and before he could react, it dragged him deep into the ground.

When he saw the light again.

Before them stood a gigantic body covered in countless tentacles, radiating a terrifying aura.

Faced with that imposing aura, even the proud and arrogant wolf was shaken and felt a trace of... fear.

“My name is Orochi… I am the leader of those monsters. Garou, you have the talent to become a monster.”

As he spoke, Monster King Orochi tossed a monster cell in front of Garou.

"Eat this monster cell, become a monster, and you will possess power far exceeding your current strength."

"To become...a weirdo."

As Garou gazed at the pulsating monster cells before him, his eyes flickered as he recalled the powerful monsters who had fought against heroes in the arena.

"Eat it, become one of us, and then... defeat the hero."

"Down with...the hero..."

The seductive voice of Monster King Orochi echoed in Garou's mind, causing his eyes to become slightly fanatical. He involuntarily bent down and grabbed the monster cell that beat like a heart.

Then... he took a bite.

Immediately afterwards, a roar like that of a wild beast came from deep underground.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

……

above the surface.

Psykos's body was twisted by Tornado's superpowers, leaving her suspended upside down in the air.

"Admit defeat?"

"I, I give up."

After experiencing Tornado's unparalleled power, Psykos despaired and chose to concede defeat.

Tornado stared at her enormous headlights, narrowing her eyes with some displeasure.

"I guess I should just kill him after all."

With a thought, the superpowers she had placed on Sykes were amplified once more, and her body began to twist in one direction.

"Ah ah ah ah ah!"

Sykes screamed in agony.

"I was wrong, please forgive me, please forgive me!"

She was about to be twisted into a pretzel right before her eyes.

Fubuki, lying on the ground, couldn't sit still any longer.

"Sister, wait."

"Ok?"

Tornado cast a questioning look at her.

Fubuki quickly said, "She's a friend I used to know. I don't know how she became a weirdo, but..."

She hasn't finished speaking yet.

A beam of black light shot out from the ground, its target the tornado on the arena.

Tornado's eyes narrowed, and she used her superpowers to block the attack, but the force binding Psykos loosened, allowing her to break free and escape.

Sykes quickly retreated to the monster's side, still somewhat shaken.

"In the tenth battle, the hero emerged victorious."

As Ron spoke, his heterochromatic golden-blue eyes looked down into the deep pit, somewhat displeased. "I told you, no one is allowed to interfere with the competition."

A flash of azure light appeared in his eyes.

Followed by.

The earth rumbled and trembled, splitting open to both sides from the hole in the center.

A monstrous serpent, over twenty meters tall and covered in tentacles, emerged from within.

All the heroes stared at it, their eyes wide open.

The Monster Association?! There's something this terrifying inside?!

"This guy... must be their leader."

The metal bat, carrying the bat, stared intently at the giant snake and spoke.

"This guy is in serious trouble."

Without him saying it, everyone else could feel the great power of the serpent.

"Sykes has already conceded defeat, so it wouldn't be against the rules for me to intervene, would it?"

"Monster King Orochi looked at Ron in the air and said."

Its voice carried a sense of mental intimidation and corruption. Upon realizing this, Tornado immediately deployed a mental protective shield to protect Fubuki and the heroes.

Ron chuckled: "Whether it counts as breaking the rules is up to me to decide, not you... it doesn't matter."

The words fell.

He instantly appeared in front of the monsters and unleashed a punch imbued with the highest level of Armament Haki.

The air shattered instantly, as if a whole pane of glass had been smashed.

The atmosphere shook violently.

The moment they sensed that intense danger, Homeless Emperor and the other monsters did not hesitate for a moment and immediately scattered and fled from their original positions.

The very next moment after he left.

Rumble, rumble!

The earth began to tremble violently, as if an earth ox had turned over.

Huge cracks continued to spread forward, and the ground was completely shattered!

The wandering emperor, who had retreated several hundred meters to the side, saw this scene and his pupils contracted sharply.

Just one punch?

What level of destructive power is this?

Facing the air cannon punch, Monster King Orochi raised hundreds of tentacles, opened them, gathered energy, and then fired them all at once.

The air cannon created by the punch collided with the energy beam fired by Monster King Orochi.

Heaven and earth were initially still.

Followed by.
