Running through the explosions, Luffy dodged a punch from Tupper, before hitting Dr Rota, to get him out of his way. What Luffy wanted was to fight a particular fighter.
" Robot! Robot! Robot! " He cried, searching for Magetta.
However, he suddenly jumped back, as a laser beam flew past his eyes. Hitting a boulder, the attack ejected debris towards the pirate. Taking advantage of this, a figure rushed towards him, before starting to give him a barrage of punches.
" What … ? " Luffy wondered, barely having time to counter the attacks.
In front of him, Genos let his bionic eyes analyze each of Luffy's movements in detail. Then he punched her in the face. His attack was both fast and powerful.
Still, he was surprised, seeing his fist sink into Luffy's face.
'' What ... ? ''
Then, the impact ended up throwing Luffy's head back, while his neck stretched several meters.
" A rubber-man … ? "
" GUM GUM … "
Then covering his forehead with his Busoshoku Haki, Luffy ends up folding his head against Genos's.
" KRANE ! "
Grimacing in pain the android backed away a little, before clasping his hands in front of him, before pulling out his weapons of destruction.
" EXPLOSION ! "
Seeing a ray coming out from the hands of the cyborg, Luffy stretched his arm towards a boulder and managed to let himself be pulled up to it to dodge the attack.
''Wow! This guy looks like a robot too. '' Luffy remarked, seeing Genos' ray create an explosion. ''Perhaps this is the reincarnation of Franky in his universe. ''
Then running around Genos, he braced his fist before attacking.
" GUM GUM NO PISTOL ! "
Turning around, Genos managed to grab Luffy's fist in his hand. Then, using his thrusters, he rushed towards Luffy before hitting him in the stomach. Thrown then, Luffy bumped into a rock. However, getting up a few seconds later, he did nothing but dust his pants, while not having the slightest scratch.
" Sorry! I'm an elastic guy! Punches don't hurt me at all. "
" An elastic man ? So my analyzes were correct! I need to start strategizing how to defeat a being with power like yours! I think hitting you all day won't do any good. ''
Instantly appearing serious, Genos again used his thrusters to move towards Luffy. Sending his hand back to his face, he made as if to hit him again. However, he surprised Luffy by grabbing his face, before pinning him to the ground.
Then, once his opponent was immobilized, Genos charged his energy into his hand before screaming.
" EXPLOSION ! "
Opening his eyes, Luffy tried to struggle. But it was too late. Making an explosion appear in the palm of his hand,, Genos inflicted damage on the pirate. Then, stepping back, he saw Luffy's body stay on the ground.
" The victory is mine. "
" In your dreams. "
" Huh ? "
Standing up then, Luffy showed a burnt face and a little bleeding. Exhaling longer, he finally asserts.
" I will not let my world be destroyed! I would protect my companions. "
" Do you think you are the only one to think so ? " Genos questioned, getting back into a fighting position. " I too want to save my world ! Mugiwara, your rubber body may be good at resisting certain impacts, but be honest! It's not with power like that that you will be able to fight against the best warriors in the universe! Your combat strength is nothing short of incredible! I am sure I can defeat you. "
Suddenly starting to smile, Luffy noticed.
" So, I have no choice. "
Suddenly, he headed straight for Genos. Seeing him thus run, the android jumped in the air to avoid his charge. Nonetheless, he felt a hand grip his foot.
" That … ? " He wondered, looking down to see Luffy's outstretched arm.
Pulling him down, Luffy slammed him against the ground. Due to his jaws slamming hard against the hard surface of the arena, Genos felt his head spin a little. And no sooner had he had time to sit up when he saw Luffy in front of him, his arms pulled back.
" BAZOOKA ! "
Taking the attack on his face, Genos' body flew towards a rock, which exploded to pieces. Seeing the dust rising, Luffy stood still, trying to guess his position.
Finally, the android stood up and brushed off the dust with his arm.
" I see that the other universes have warriors who know how to fight! Finally, your strange powers are interesting. "
" You too. " Luffy asserted. " You remind me of one of my friends. "
Finally, looking at each other the two fighters decided to fight seriously.
" GEAR SECOND ! "
" CANON INCINERATION ! "
However, before they could attack each other, the duo were attacked by rays of light, forming a constellation.
" GRAND CHARIOT ! "
Being thrown back, the two fighters got up, unhappy to be disturbed like this. But as Genos tried to locate the stranger, Luffy ended up feeling a shadow behind his back. Turning around in time, he saw Cobra, with his fist covered in poison.
Seeing Luffy dodge his fist, he tried to scratch him on his chest. Locking his hand with his leg, Luffy in turn tried to punch him with his fist, but Cobra dodged him before jumping back. Then heading up a rock, the mage found himself at Jellal's side and the two looked at Genos and Luffy.
" Who are you ? " Luffy asked them.
" Universe 10. " Genos recognized them.
" Oh, do you recognize us? I am flattered. " Cobra asserted with a small smile.
" I have already memorized all the faces of all the fighters. "
Then, putting himself in a fighting position, Genos exclaimed.
" What do you want to choose? Go fight someone else or make me throw you out of the arena? "
In response, Cobra was the first to run towards him, before Jellal imitated him by allowing himself to be enveloped in the light.
" METEOR ! "
Seeing the two fighters on top of him, Genos twitched his arms to block their punches. Seeing him hold like this for a few seconds, Jellal finally stepped back, leaving Cobra to get the android's attention. Then, concentrating, he shot various rays of light.
" JIU LEIXING ! "
Immediately, Cobra stepped away, while Genos saw the rays of light rush upon him. Without wasting a moment, he aimed his arms towards the attack, before creating an explosive lacer beam.
" INCINERATION ! "
Immediately, the two attacks collided, causing a violent explosion which threw the two fighters back a little. But no sooner had Genos had time to regain his balance, than Cobra was already behind him.
" POISON DRAGON'S TWIN FANG ! "
But before he could hit the android, a kick hit him in the face, causing him to hover away from Genos.
" What … ? " the android wondered, turning to see Luffy behind him.
" These guys disrupted our fight. " Growled the pirate. " Do you mind being taken care of ? "
Looking at him surprised at first, Genos stared at Jellal, while asserting.
" No ! No problem ! I take care of this guy. "
" YOSH. " Luffy cried, running towards Cobra, who was lying on the ground.
However, hearing his footsteps, Cobra immediately stood up, before puffing out his cheeks.
" POISON DRAGON'S ROAR ! "
Seeing the attack, Luffy flexed his legs before jumping over them. But already, Cobra was in front of him, having anticipated his gesture.
" What … ? "
" POISON DRAGON'S FANG THRUST ! "
Being hit by waves of poison resembling poison air currents, Luffy felt himself fall to the ground, followed by Cobra.
" POISON DRAGON'S FIST ! "
Seeing him aim his face, Luffy moved his head in time, forcing Cobra to hit the ground. Then, covering his arm with Busoshoku Haki, the pirate ends up throwing it towards Cobra's chin. However, the mage dodged it carefree, despite the short distance between them.
" Useless! Now you can never surprise me again. "
Trying to kick him out anyway, Luffy forced him to back away, allowing him to stand up. Then leaping into the air, Luffy put his feet together, before directing them towards the mage.
" GUM GUM YARI ! "
" POISON DRAGON'S GUARD ! "
Seeing a poison shield manifest in front of Cobra, Luffy felt his feet to be blocked. Bringing them back to him anyway, he lifted one leg before to knock it down with all his might towards Cobra.
" GUM GUM ONO ! "
This time, eyes closed and hands in his pockets, Cobra just stepped aside to avoid Luffy's attack. Then, opening his eyes, he directed his arm towards Luffy.
" SOUND WALL ! "
Immediately, the pirate was hit by sound waves that were powerful enough to destroy the ground around Cobra.
" AHHHHHHH! " Luffy shouted, trying to cover his ears.
Seeing him then fall, Cobra rushed at him, before bombarding him with poisoned orbs.
" POISON DRAGON'S SCALES ! "
Getting hit again, Luffy was bombarded for a few seconds, before collapsing to the ground.
" Perfect. " Cobra asserted, walking towards him.
However, getting up again, Luffy ran to him, and tried to punch him. Dodging, while simply stepping back, Cobra kept his smile on as he saw Luffy desperately attacking him. Yet, ultimately, he ends up being surprised, with Luffy still appearing in great shape. Yet he had been touched enough by his poison to begin to feel numb in his limbs. As a result, Cobra coated his hands with poison, before directing them towards Luffy.
" POISON DRAGON'S CLAW ! "
At this point, using the Kenbunshoku Haki. Luffy moved his face fast enough to perform a double dodge, before he could grab one of Cobra's arms fast enough to keep him from running away.
" That … ? "
Arm back, Luffy twirled him around before pointing him at Cobra.
" GUM GUM RIFLE ! "
" POISON DRAGON'S FANG ! "
Then hitting each other, the two warriors fell to the ground. Nonetheless, getting up with a bruise on his cheek, Cobra roared.
" You will pay for that ! How come you can still fight when my poison has hit you? "
" The poison has no effect on me. " Luffy retorted. "I've fought guys who used poison as weapons and to survive my body had to develop strong antibodies. "
" Tsss! As if I was going to believe that someone can use poison more powerful than mine! You will see that I will defeat you thanks to it. "
" I'm your man. " Luffy assured.
" DAI FUNKA ! "
Dodging in extremis an explosion of magma, the two warriors were surprised when they saw Akainu walking towards them.
" You are insignificant. "
" You? " Luffy roared. " What got into you? "
" Shut up, Mugiwara! You and I will never team up! As soon as this tournament is over, I'll kill you like the rest of the pirates on our team. "
" Waouh, great team spirit!. " Giggles Cobra, hearing it. " Is that how you plan to win ? "
In response, Akainu raised both of his arms in the air, before turning them into fists of lava. Seeing him do it, Luffy stepped back, asserting himself.
" Hold on ! You will touch everyone. "
Ignoring his words, Akainu launched dozens of lava fists into the air.
" RYUSEI KAZAN ! "
Watching him do it without moving, Cobra didn't understand what he was doing as all of his attacks vanished high in the sky. Then, hearing a strange noise, he seemed stunned to see the attacks return to the arena, while having their volume increased.
" That … ? JELLAL ! "
" Huh? " Said his companion as he was still fighting Genos.
Seeing the attacks, the mage immediately used "METEOR" before flying and grabbing Cobra.
" We leave ! "
For his part, pulling back when he saw Akainu's lava fists rush at him, Luffy ended up feeling a hand on his shoulder.
" That fool. " Roared Law, seeing Akainu's attack. " ROOM ! "
Finding himself alone in the face of Akainu's attacks, Genos raised his arms in the air, before attacking them.
" INCINERATION ! "
And while a few fists were destroyed, several more bombarded the rest of the field.
" What's this ? " Momo wanted to know, stepping back.
" I don't like that! " Kirishima said.
At that moment, an ice shield formed in front of them, while Shoto and Tokoyami was returned to them in time. Having used his powers, Shoto saw the fists of lava crash against his ice, and rebuilt the protection as it melted.
Not far from them, still fighting, Boros dodged a lava meteor in time, while another touched Big Mom's back.
" AHHHHHH! " She roared.
" MAMA! " Shouted her minions.
Seeing the giantess get hit by the attack, as Akainu continued to attack, Kendo cried out.
" He is crazy ? He attacks his own companions. "
Suddenly Shoto's ice finally shatters into pieces and a fist of lava lands between the fighters in universe 12, ejecting a few of them away from their teammates.
For his part, seeing his superior attacking the whole field, Kizaru let out a single sigh, before turning his body into light.
Still falling, the lava fists forced the contestants to stop their fight and attack upwards.
" LIGHTNING ROAR!" Cried Laxus.
" PUMPKIN ! " Mine cried, letting his teigu bombard the sky.
Floating in the air, Tatsumaki used his powers to stop several fists of lava, before sending them back up to the sky, crashing against further attacks.
However, the lava rain continued to pour in.
''Tssss! Is this never going to stop? ''
Seeing this, Midora stared at the sky without reacting. Finally, he opened his mouth.
" METEOR LASER! "
In an instant, the power of his tongue acted like a dozen laser beams, which struck Akainu's entire attacks, pulverizing them in seconds.
Seeing this, Akainu transformed his whole body into magma, and ejected out of his body a phenomenal amount of magma into the sky.
And a few seconds later, it was like a huge lava meteor that fell on the ground.
" He is crazy ? " Cried Tenshinhan. " If this thing hits the ground, all the ground will be covered with it. "
" Like I'm going to be beaten by this birthday candle. " Zebra cried. '' I'm going to spray this. ''
Nevertheless, Toppo was faster than him. Leaping in the air, he jumped without the slightest hesitation towards the magma ball. Then letting his fist cover with a red aura, he threw a phenomenal punch in the attack. With the force of the punch alone, he disintegrated all of the red liquid, which poured further into the void.
Seeing this, everyone stood still, before Toppo fell back to the arena floor, creating a deafening noise. Turning to Akainu, he saw the man watching him.
" Hey, what's your problem? Do you have no remorse then for destroying your own team? "
In response, Akainu let himself be transformed into lava and preferred to go away.
" We will meet each other again. " Toppo assured.
Having just needed to hit two lava fists to get to safety, Saitama had seen Toppo hit Akainu's last attack. Pausing to think, he wondered if Toppo was going to be a good opponent for him.
Finally, after a few seconds, he heard an explosion occur and, immediately, the fighting resumed, while the danger had been passed. Feeling here and there shock waves lifting rocks, or explosions brush against him, the hero yet showing no emotion on his face. Frankly, he didn't know who to attack.
" That's not all but ... where are the powerful fighters? "
" Hey, little guy. " Suddenly someone called him.
Barely looking up, Saitama could see Jhiro sitting on a rock, bottle in hand.
" Hum? " The bald man wondered. " You're the guy I hit earlier! Are you still up? You must be rather strong. "
Sneering at this statement, Jhiro began to drink part of his bottle, before questioning him.
" Just out of curiosity, are you always like that? "
" What do you mean ? "
'' Earlier, I seemed to understand that you were not afraid of death! That all you wanted was a good fight! Why this ? "
" Oh, that? It's just because I must be dead on the inside! Sometimes, when I start to think, I notice that it's been a long time since I took a liking to life. "
" And why ? "
" Because of my power! I am the most powerful being on my planet, and maybe even in my universe! Rare are those who manage to resist one of my punches! Before the arrival of this yellow rat, I thought I could win against anyone without difficulty! That's why I'm participating in this tournament! On the one hand, it awakened in me a feeling that I had once lost! However, I know for a fact that once this tournament is over, that I will surely never see an opponent worthy of me again! What I want is to have fun over and over again against powerful opponents! This is my only reason for participating in this tournament! Still, I don't feel like there are really any warriors as strong as me here. "
Sneering again Jhiro asserted.
" I think I understand your problem! You have an enemy that you can't kill with a punch: boredom! Still, would you be so ignorant that you didn't know that a fight isn't the only way to have fun ? "
" What do you mean ? "
" Me, for example, I am often told that I am one of the most powerful people in my universe! However, that doesn't mean I'm a big fan of fighting! In fact, I much prefer to spend my time resting while having a good glass of alcohol and toasting with my companions! Why don't you try to do something other than fight ? "
" Ok, but I don't really interested. " Saitama confessed.
Sneering at his frankness, Jhiro drank what was left of his bottle, before throwing it to the ground.
" You are really difficult, kid! Alright, in this case I'm afraid I unfortunately have no choice. "
Contracting his muscles, he changed his appearance letting his body transform into a huge pile of muscles.
" I feel that you are far from being an ordinary guy! In this case, I'll go all out. "
" Go ahead. " Saitama allowed him, remaining unmoved. " Anyway, every time, my enemies get beaten quickly, so… "
" BIG BANG ! "
Then punching him with all his might, Shiro touched his face, throwing him back. Hitting several rocks, Saitama ended up crossing the center post entirely, before continuing his race. However, ending up simply letting his feet fall to the ground, he slowed down, before stopping.
" Hey, you almost broke my nose. " He said, without seeming genuinely hurt.
Suddenly finding himself behind his back, Jhiro kicked him twice that knocked Saitama off the ground. Then raising his leg, he tried to crush his opponent with it.
However, getting up without difficulty, Saitama dodged the attack and found himself facing Jhiro.
" Hey, you're really big for an old man. "
Sneering, hearing it, Jhirô ends up contracting all of his muscles.
" No damage? I think I have no choice! Let's go. "
Immediately, his body knew like a cure of Youth. Growing in muscle again, he also developed a younger face, devoid of any wrinkles.
" My power is at its peak. " He affirmed. " Initially, I was able to stop the rotation of the Earth with a single punch! Today, my legendary punch is finally able to destroy an entire planet. "
" Oh ? " Saitama said.
Then running towards him, Jhiro cried out.
" Get ready, kid! Show me your best punch. "
" However you want. " Saitama announced, closing his own fist. " Here's a serious punch. "
" ULTIME BIG BANG ! "
" SERIOUS PUNCH ! "
Colliding, the two attacks created a powerful shock wave that was felt throughout the pitch. In fact, several fighters were almost pushed back.
" What … ? " Cocotte wondered, creating a shield in front of her.
" The bald. " Growled Sea King, watching the fight.
With fists hitting each other, the two warriors struggled to gain the advantage over each other.
" Sorry kid, but I can't lose." Affirmed Jhiro. " My universe is far too precious to me for me to let it dissapear. "
Using all his might, he suddenly managed to bend Saitama's arm back.
" That … ? " The hero wondered, as his feet slid to the ground.
" Here is the strength of Universe 2. "
However, in an instant, his progress on Saitama came to a halt. Indeed, suddenly ceasing to be jaded, Saitama dared to display a small smile, while he affirmed.
" I see … "
Then suddenly he started to cry out before his fist was propelled forward. In an instant, creaks were heard inside Jhiro's arm, showing that the bones of his member were breaking.
" Impossible. "
" SERIOUS PUNCH ! MAX POWER ! "
Finally, with his arm destroyed, Jhirô ended up to felt Saitama's fist hitting his body. Spitting blood thus, he was thrown back. In an instant, he left the field before continuing to fly above the void, until he disappeared deep into the universe.
" What ? " Heles wondered, turning to try to see him.
Nevertheless, eventually appearing not far from her, Jhiro had resumed his old man's appearance, while his arm had been completely pulverized and his face was bloody. Yet despite his defeat, he began to chuckle.
" Sacred kid! I admit my defeat. "
While still on the ground, Saitama stared at his fist, as he felt his arm was shaking. He was numb. He had never used so much power, even against Boros or Botamo.
" It's strange ! During a second, I thought I was… serious ! "
Nevertheless, ending up shrugging his shoulders, he ended up resuming his walk, while affirming.
" It must be my imagination. "
