Suddenly the ground shook as Atlas stood tense, his body straining to cope with the sudden burst of energy flowing through him. The ground around him broke into chunks and flew through the air as he is surrounded by a storm of purple lightning.

"T-That power it's UNREAL!" Genos said as he sensed the near infinite level of energy Atlas was generating while he transformed.

As every fiber of Atlas's body seemed ready to burst at the seams. He let out mighty scream which was followed a blinding white light. The light then dissipates to reveal, Atlas with hair as a flaming inferno and his irises glowing bright red.

"That's a lot of energy." Saitama said eager to see how powerful his opponent will become.

"I am Atlas, God of Rage!" the flame haired man yelled.

The two then leaped towards each other and proceeded with the second bout of their fight. Saitama and Atlas then started slugging it out with such force that each punch would heat up the atmosphere and induce lighting storms. As they traded blows the ground surrounding them started being pushed back and shockwaves emanating from their strikes were destroying the crystal spires that were abundant in the area.

"So this is what master is capable of" Genos thought to himself amazed as he witnessed the 2 Gods tear at each other.

For a while the two power houses were on equal footing as each of their punches and kicks canceled each other out. So Atlas decided to change it up by grabbing Saitama's head and slamming it into the ground! The effect of this was immense as Saitama started barreling through the crystal. Atlas then leaped into the air and proceeded to perform an elbow drop on Saitama. Atlas fell with such speed that his whole body caught fire. "Heavenly Bullet!" Atlas yelled, naming his attack right before it hit Saitama. The impact of the move caused a massive explosion that decimated everything in the surrounding area; not even all the earth's nuclear arms would be able to replicate such a destructive onslaught.

"MASTER!" Genos shouted fearing for the safety of his sensei.

As the crystal dust around the area stared to settle, Atlas jumps out of the canyon created by his attack.

"That should have done it, no one has ever survived that attack." Atlas said sure of his victory.

Suddenly Saitama started walking out of the hole.

"H-How is this possible!" Atlas yelled enraged.

Saitama just stared at Atlas until he noticed a tare in the midsection of his super suit.

"Oh man, this was gift." Saitama said dismayed. He then shot Atlas an intimidating stare and said: "You'll pay for what you did to it."

Atlas at this point was still infuriated that Saitama didn't go down. "I will NOT lose to you! ive worked too long and too hard for this! When this ends you will KNEEL before me! Atlas shouted.

"You talk too much" Saitama replied with a serious face

Saitama then went on the offensive as he ran towards Atlas and started throwing punches at him. Atlas was doing his best to dodge Saitama's blows but he was having difficulty keeping up with the bald hero, "he's too fast I won't be able to dodge him for long" Atlas thought to himself. Then suddenly out of the blue Saitama landed a hit on his abdomen. The pain was intense, as Atlas's eyes started rolling back into his skull and blood shot out of his mouth and nose. The self proclaimed God of rage tried to catch a breath and recover but before he could Saitama followed up his last attack with his super move!

深刻な打撃

Serious Strike

The Saitama's punch hit its mark and sent Atlas flying through 6 mountains made out of solid diamond. The back lash of Atlas's body traveling with such energy caused a giant crevasse to form under him as he flew through the air. In addition the debris from the mountains he smashed through were being pulled towards him, almost as if he along with millions of tons of diamonds were being sucked into a black hole.

Eventually Atlas's inertia started fading and he came to a stop as he hit a 7th diamond mountain. However, Atlas's agony didn't end there as the tons of debris following him started crashing into him. This causes the mountain he was stuck on to crumble and fall to the ground.

Now buried under an insurmountable amount of ruble, Atlas could feel his soul as it started to leave his body. His flaming hair slowly started dissipating and reverting back to its original blood red form and his glowing red eyes were getting dimmer and dimmer, this surely seemed to be the end for him.

Suddenly, Atlas hears a disembodied female voice call out to him. "Arthur" it whispered.

"That voice" Atlas said as the speaker's familiarity causes him to relive a part of his past

In the flash back, Atlas stands behind a scrawny and sickly looking child who was sitting on a swing set and sobbing. Without warning the sad scene suddenly changes into one of horror as 2 people one man and one woman are being forcefully separated by a gang of thugs.

"Arthur!" the woman cried out.

"No no no!" Atlas yelled as he leaped in to try and save her but to his disbelief the woman slipped right through him, he knew at that moment there was nothing he could do.

While this was happening Saitama was just standing around with his fist still smoking from the power of his serious strike.

"I might have hit him too hard" Saitama said. At this time Genos who was recording the fight in order to gather data said: "it's finally over, Master has won yet again."

Back to Atlas

The horror continued as his memories started to get shuffled around in rapid succession. This caused him to have a mental over load while the memories moved faster and faster. Atlas couldn't take much more and quickly cover his ears and closed his eyes, wishing it would all stop. Suddenly a loud gunshot rang out! This caused Atlas to be jolted awake.

"IL NEVER BE THAT WEAK AGAIN!" he screamed enraged as he busted through the ruble that was crushing him. In the midst of his fury, Atlas's hair ignited once more, however, it didn't stop there as the inferno started spreading while his hair grew to waist length. The God of rage's eyes also changed as this time around both his ocular orbs glowed bright red and red smoke started to emanate from them.

Atlas noticed that Saitama's serious strike had left a permanent fist shaped indentation on his skin. He then shot a menacing glance started to slowly point his finger at Saitama, "This is the end for you, hero!" he yelled right before he started charging up his attack. As the power built up around him the very planet of Krystalos started to shake and the surface started to crack apart, forming deep crevasse and ravines in the process. Then suddenly the blue sky above them started shifting to a red hue and massive bolts of lightning started raining down, destroying more of the once beautiful diamond landscape.

Genos watched on in horror as the planet shook more violently, he feared that the planet they were on was about to explode at any second.

Now, having built up enough energy, Atlas proceeded to place his palms on the ground. He then buried his finger deep into the diamond crust and yelled:

Finishing move!

Crimson Tide

Atlas released every ounce of built up energy he had into the ground! And a massive red tidal wave of radiating energy about 3 miles across sprung out of the diamond crust and headed straight for Saitama. As the nuclear tsunami moved forward it also brought along the layer of crust beneath it.

Saitama watched on as certain doom was headed towards him, however, he was not afraid, in fact quite the opposite, he was exited. For so long he hoped to find a challenging opponent and now he finally got his wish.

"Bring it on" Saitama said confidently.

The wave then enveloped the bald hero, along with 3 miles of terrain! Suddenly, the energy wave started shrinking and condensing into a crimson orb. The orb then started to solidify and levitate 50 ft into the air. Inside, millions of explosions started firing off in rapid succession. On the outside the eruptions only seemed to be the size same as a car bomb but in reality each explosions has the equivalent power of 1000 suns exploding at the same time.
