A Bizarre Adventure Starting with One-Punch Man

Bang!

A pool of human-shaped blood was imprinted on the ground. The Asura Rhinoceros Beetle raised its fist, watching the blood drip down its arm. The insect wings behind it flapped, and its huge body lightly rose into the air, seemingly preparing to return to the darkness.

Crackling sound—

Just then, the iron door behind it opened again, and two more clones walked into the cell one after the other.

Although their foreheads were also covered in cold sweat, they looked much calmer than numbers 21 and 42 who had just entered.

"Asura Rhinoceros Beetle! You've already killed two people, shouldn't you be satisfied?"

"Now there is an important task to be assigned to..."

puff! !

A massive gust of wind swept past, and clones number 72 and 33, after only showing their faces, followed in the footsteps of the first two clones, their bodies exploding into two pools of splattered blood and foam.

Chapter 154 House of Evolution No. 2

"It's so noisy! It's so noisy!"

"How could that possibly be enough!"

"I was born with the destiny of wiping out all humanity of the old era, and I am the complete form of a new human standing at the pinnacle of the House of Evolution's ecosystem!"

"The ultimate life form with the strongest combat power!"

"You've kept me locked up in a dark, cold underground place since I was born. When will you finally let me go out into a human city and kill to my heart's content?"

"what?"

The Asura Rhinoceros Beetle let out deafening roars, its questioning voices making the alloy walls of the cell tremble.

As the roaring in the cell gradually subsided, another clone, marked with the number 41 on its chest, walked in from outside the door.

"Asura Rhinoceros Beetle, the evolution experiment on you is not yet complete. You can't be impatient..."

Number 41 looked at the blood all over the ground and adjusted his glasses with trembling fingers.

"Right now, we have a perfect test subject—a human S-class hero who has come to us!"

"He's waiting for you in the large space where you usually conduct combat tests. As long as you can defeat him..."

puff--

The remaining half of number 41's body collapsed to the ground with a thud, and the upper part turned into a blood mist that stained the wall red.

"How long-winded..."

The Asura Rhinoceros Beetle stretched, and the chains all over its body snapped one by one as its muscles expanded, scattering all over the ground with a clatter.

With a gentle flick of his wrist, he broke the remaining chain around his neck, the terrifying force snapping the high-strength alloy chain into several pieces as easily as a child breaking a cookie.

"Tch, if you had said that earlier, none of this would have happened."

As it spoke, it spread its rapidly vibrating wings, flew over the corpses of the clones it had destroyed, and flew out of the cell as if no one else was there.

Outside the door, clones number 32 and 27, their hands and feet ice-cold, were carrying buckets and mops. Only after the Asura rhinoceros beetle had flown far away did they exchange a relieved glance.

"Finally gone, that terrifying, monstrous creature..."

"Stop talking nonsense and hurry up and go inside to clean! You don't want to get killed when he comes back, do you?!"

……

House of Evolution, Battleground.

"what the hell?"

"To choose an ordinary human as my opponent is a gross underestimation of me, the No. 2 'Beast King' of the House of Evolution!!"

A giant lion, about five meters tall, strode into the battle space, led by two clones.

It wore a simple, short outfit like a samurai, with a cheetah-spotted animal skin skirt around its waist, and heavy metal armor on its wrists and calves.

Although it has a human form, the lion's head with a mane and its clawed feet are no different from those of a real lion.

Clearly, this is yet another powerful monster born from the fusion of animal and human genes.

"As it says, this is the second strongest warrior in our House of Evolution's combat power ranking, the 'Beast King'."

Behind Johnson, or more precisely, outside the entrance to the combat space, Dr. Genus explained.

bang bang bang...

Before the words were finished, a heavy thud echoed as something slammed into the ground. The Beast King turned around in confusion, then roared, "Armed Gorilla, what are you doing here? This human is my prey!!"

"The order I received was to cooperate with the Beast King to eliminate the invaders, so I came here."

A series of stiff, mechanical voices, like those of a robot, came from the mouth of a silverback gorilla covered in full alloy armor. Its size was not much less than that of the Beast King, and its body, except for a few essential organs, had been completely transformed into machinery.

"Tch, I don't need this piece of trash's cooperation!"

The Beast King bared its teeth and roared, raising its paws to display its fully extended claws, just like Wolverine.

"Get lost when the fight breaks out, or I'll shred you to pieces too!!"

“Received, already switched, remote, support, mode”.

Although it wasn't equipped with long-range attack weapons, that didn't stop the armed gorilla from wholeheartedly entering spectator mode.

There was no other way; the Beast King's overall performance was almost twice that of the No. 3 of the House of Evolution. If he couldn't beat it, he simply had to obey.

Across from the two colossal beasts that were having a conversation, Johnson couldn't help but tilt his head.

Armored Gorilla was able to fight Genos, the newly introduced budget warrior, for five minutes, so it must have at least Demon-level strength. Beast King, who is ranked even higher than it, was also a ruthless character with astonishing destructive power, even though he was defeated by Saitama with a series of normal punches not long after his appearance.

As everyone knows, the only monsters who are qualified to be instantly killed by the bald man are either weaklings or powerful individuals.

These two individuals, one underwent extensive mechanical modifications, while the other pursued genetic enhancement—two completely different paths.

Although it's not enough to compare with Johnson, it's enough to prove that Dr. Genus's brilliant ideas are not unfounded.

Just pull out two finished bio-weapon prototypes and they're good enough to crush most professional heroes.

"Hey, have you finished discussing your tactics yet?"

"Ok?"

The Beast King sensed something was off about the direction the sound was coming from and immediately looked down.

Suddenly, the short creature, which was not even up to its waist, appeared in front of it, a change that startled it.

It shouldn’t be!

My powerful hearing can detect even the slightest sound within a hundred meters!

Beast King's undefeated experience within the House of Evolution fostered his arrogant personality. Coupled with the fact that his genetic enhancements did not extend to his intelligence, he quickly overlooked what it truly meant that Johnson could approach him silently.

"Hmph! Are you already impatient to die?"

With heavy snorts, the Beast King's lion mane fluttered without wind, the veins on his thick arm muscles stood out, and long, knife-like feline claws sprang out from his palms, fully extended.

"Since that's the case, then I will grant your wish!"

"Lion Slash!!"

Five cold lights streaked through the air, the highly concentrated wind pressure like the flying sword energy of a sword master, cutting deeply into the alloy ground as the beast king swung its claws.

"……what?"

The beast king's powerful claw, capable of splitting mountains and shattering rocks, was suddenly stopped halfway through its swing. Looking down in confusion, it realized that its claw had struck Johnson's head, yet it hadn't even managed to bend a single hair.

A transparent barrier blocked the claws, and no matter how hard it tried, it could not break through.

"Hahaha?"

The Beast King's laughter was somewhat forced as he took a half-step back, and beads of sweat were faintly visible on the lion's head.

He may be a reckless man, but he's not a fool.

Seeing this, the Beast King knew he had kicked a hornet's nest.

But having already made those tough statements, we can't afford to lose face as the No. 2 of the House of Evolution!

That cunning, armed gorilla is still watching from behind!

Chapter 155 The Gorilla from the Heart

"Hahaha...surprisingly, he actually has some skill!"

He chuckled awkwardly twice, then forced himself to take a deep breath.

His blood began to boil with the beating of his heart, entering full power mode, and even his body grew three times larger.

"Then let's test the king's full power! Take this—"

"Lion Slashes Meteor Shower!!"

A barrage of powerful slashes, capable of cleaving through warships, erupted in the battle space. The Beast King unleashed a frenzied barrage of slashes with both hands, and the ground instantly bore the brunt of countless attacks. The accumulated energy exploded violently, and the two figures were immediately engulfed in smoke.

"Shouting out the name of the move really does give you a damage bonus!"

As the smoke cleared, the Beast King saw Josen floating in the air, his entire body engulfed in azure flames, his crimson beast eyes filled with utter bewilderment.
