A Bizarre Adventure Starting with One-Punch Man

Johnson chimed in from the side, "Martial arts master."

Upon being reminded, Saitama exclaimed with sudden realization, "Right, a martial arts master!"

Banggu: "..."

—So you didn't even remember what my profession is? These young people these days…

Genos stood up, bowed, and greeted him earnestly: "Hello, Mr. Bang! I am Saitama's disciple, named Genos! As you can see, I am a cyborg."

Although Bang was surprised by Genos's unusual design with his full-body mechanical armor, he quickly composed himself and nodded to the unexpectedly polite young cyborg: "Hello, Genos-kun."

Genos then picked up the gift box he had brought: "Mr. Bang, this is a gift prepared for you by Saitama-sensei and Mr. Johnson. Please accept it!"

“You even brought a gift, how thoughtful,” Bang said, glancing at the luxurious tea set that looked incredibly expensive. “In that case, I’ll accept it.”

"It should be."

"As long as you like it."

Saitama and Johnson both agreed.

"But young cyborg, could you please help me carry this out? My bedroom is in the back."

Yes! No problem!

……

Ten minutes ago.

Outside the temple.

Four figures appeared on the stone steps, and a moment later they stepped onto the platform outside the Water Dojo.

"Phew—we've finally arrived."

"Qiu Mai Tachi" couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief when he saw the flowing dojo right in front of him.

The "Atomic Warrior," who was walking behind with two other disciples, adjusted his straw hat: "Calm down, Qiu Wu. Don't always be so impulsive."

"Okay, Master!"

"Qiu Mai Tai Dao" stuck out her tongue cutely, then shrank her neck and tried to retreat between "Iai-an" and "Samurai Drill".

"Hey, why are we going to the back?"

"……what?"

"Atomic Samurai" called out to "Kyuu Mai Tachi," still holding his ever-present, extra-long wooden toothpick in his mouth, and glanced at him indifferently: "Since you're still so energetic, then you can go knock on the door."

"Yes, master!"

"Qiu Wu Taidao" accepted the order, took two light steps forward, picked up the door knocker, and gently knocked on the dojo's door.

dong dong dong-

A knock sounded at the door, and the green plants on one side of the door swayed. The burly, thick-shouldered Bitter Worm sat up, looking completely bewildered.

He shook his head as if he had just woken up, his unfocused gaze gradually finding its focus, but his expression was still full of doubt.

"Strange... how did I fall asleep in a place like this?"

This brings us to a certain kind-hearted superhero who, fearing that Bitter Worm might be bored, hypnotized him and also erased a few unhappy memories.

Now that I've woken up, I naturally can't remember anything.

dong dong dong-

There was another knock on the door.

"They're here! They're here again!?"

The bitter insect muttered as it got up and was about to rush towards the gate, but its steps suddenly stopped.

"Eh... why did I say 'again'?"

After thinking for a long time without figuring it out, Ku Chong angrily opened the door with a cold face: "Who is it! Coming at this hour, don't people need to eat...?"

With a creak, a slender figure with a pretty face came into view.

“…Uh,” the bitter insect’s complaints stopped abruptly, and he immediately put on a smiling face: “Hello, beautiful lady, who are you looking for?”

"Qiu Wu Tai Dao" was originally blinking her big eyes and smiling, but the moment she opened the door, she saw a smelly old man with a big butt and a big chin, and her face immediately fell.

(Bitter Worm: I just look older than my age, I'm only 18!)

"My master, 'Atomic Samurai,' has come to pay a visit to Mr. 'Silver Fang' Bang!"

"Hey... beautiful, is that your voice??"

Just as Ku Chong was about to say, "Beautiful lady, isn't your voice a little off?", his gaze caught sight of a figure with a sword beneath a bright red cloak.

His mind raced, quickly connecting the person in front of him with the name he had just spoken.

Immediately, Kuchong forgot about the little question about "Qiuwu Katana" and widened his eyes on the spot.

"You...you...you are?!"

"You really are Lord Atomic Samurai?"

“Ah, it’s me,” Atomic Samurai said, taking off his sun hat and tossing it to Samurai Drill behind him. He grinned and asked, “Is Master Bang home?”

"Yes! Yes! Please come in, I'll go in and inform them right away."

Kuchō opened the gates of the dojo and hurriedly ran to find Bangū.

As a popular hero, "Atomic Samurai" was used to this; he had just encountered a fan.

He immediately led his three apprentices in single file.

Side hallway.

"Master, Master—"

The burly worm, with its thick limbs, scurried to the vicinity of the side hall like a moving stone block, just in time to see Bang and Johnson's group come out and walk into the corridor.

Bang asked, hands behind his back, "Bitter Bug, what's the matter that you're in such a panic?"

Sweating profusely from running, Ku Chong quickly wiped his brow and, catching his breath, replied, "Master, it's 'Atomic Samurai'! Lord 'Atomic Samurai' has come to visit you with his disciples!"

Chapter 197 The Cocktail Party (Part 1)

"Oh, have we arrived already?"

Compared to the excited Bitter Worm, Bang Gu didn't seem too surprised and waved for the old-looking disciple to leave.

“The Atomic Warrior did mention to me before that he would be passing through Z City on his way to take his disciples on a training journey,” he said, glancing at Johnson and his group, “but I didn’t expect to arrive on the same day as you, Johnson.”

Upon hearing this, Qiao Sen nodded and said, "Yes, I encountered him before when I was dealing with the strange people in City E."

"Oh, is that so? No wonder..." Bang's heart skipped a beat, and he leaned closer to him and whispered, "Did that arrogant guy mention anything about a competition or sparring?"

Fart?

Well said, old man!

Qiao Sen raised an eyebrow slightly: "He said so, but I refused."

Bang breathed a sigh of relief when he heard Johnson refuse.

"Oh, that's good, that's good!"

He knew about Qiao Sen's strength, so he wasn't worried.

The old man was worried that after the two fought, the usually arrogant "Atomic Warrior" might fall into depression.

—"Atomic Samurai," you really shouldn't be courting death!!

Just then, a mature and magnetic male voice came from the courtyard. Without a doubt, it was the "Atomic Warrior" who had come from afar.

"Yo, 'Silver Fang,' I've come to pay my respects as promised!"

"You must be tired from your journey, Atomic Samurai."

Bang realized what was happening and waved with a smile.

"It's so hard to see you... Wait, it's you!"

A wind-blade-like aura swept across the entire courtyard. The "Atomic Warrior," who had been all smiles just a moment ago, froze, his gaze fixed on the towering figure behind Bang that could not be concealed.

"What a coincidence, we meet again."

Johnson nodded calmly and even waved to him in a friendly manner.

Their eyes met, and their auras instantly clashed!

With a loud "boom," it was as if a bolt of lightning had struck in the middle of the small courtyard.

Saitama looked up at the sky in confusion, muttering to himself, "It's thundering, is it going to rain? Strange, there aren't any dark clouds in the sky..."

Genos, standing beside him, was gazing at the sky in perfect sync, his expression thoughtful.

—Keep an eye on how the weather might affect the battle, and write it down... Oh no! I'm still carrying gifts, I'll have to wait!

"Calm down, Master!"

The master-disciple pairing on the other side wasn't so harmonious.
