A Bizarre Adventure Starting with One-Punch Man

"But……"

Johnson brought over a chair for the doctor to sit down and said with a smile, "Please don't be in such a hurry to refuse. The main reason I'm giving you these materials is because of Genos."

"Eh, Genos?"

When Genos was mentioned, Dr. Kuseno paused, and his overly excited emotions gradually subsided.

"Yes!"

With a thought, Johnson's "Mind Network" automatically connected to the equipment inside the Doctor's Research Institute, retrieving Genos's current armor and subsequent upgrade plans.

PhD:"……"

—Is it really okay for this young man to hack into my database right in front of me?!

"With your help, Genos has become an excellent cyborg warrior."

Johnson retrieved the technical parameters of Genos's current armor and said, "His metal body allows him to face most enemies with ease, and the nuclear reactor provides him with an inexhaustible energy source, but in my opinion, these..."

"not enough!"

Dr. Kuseno was speechless: "...Not enough!?"

“Yes, Doctor,” DIO Mori nodded seriously and continued, “As far as I know, Genos has had to go back to the factory for major repairs quite a few times before, hasn’t he?”

"When faced with an enemy he cannot defeat, he will not hesitate to damage his own body, and is even prepared to self-destruct and sacrifice himself, relying on this to fight the enemy to the death."

"For a cyborg, as long as the core is not damaged, the practice of exchanging injury for injury is naturally understandable. However, if this continues and becomes a habit, it would be too cruel for Genos."

"No matter how strong he is, he is still a child."

After Johnson finished speaking, Dr. Cusino fell silent.

Indeed, Genos's precociousness sometimes makes him forget that the boy isn't even 18 years old yet.

Dr. Kuseno also wished that Genos would give up revenge, and that he could live a quiet and peaceful life with him as family.

However, such a simple wish is fraught with difficulties in being fulfilled.

Not to mention that humanity is being attacked by monsters every day, even bustling metropolises are in danger of collapsing at any time. First of all, they can't get past Genos.

From the moment the cyborg boy awoke, the seeds of revenge had taken root in his heart.

He will never stop until he defeats that despicable "mad cyborg".

The doctor sighed deeply, then asked, "So, Mr. Qiao Sen, what do you mean?"

"Using the technology I brought, we'll give Genos a new biological body," the screen said, switching to a design blueprint for a biological android. "Of course, we can modify it according to Genos's preferences, or add firepower systems like exoskeletons. With the universal capsule technology, I believe he could easily become a human bomber if he wanted to. Most importantly..."

"We need to get Genos back into the habit of living as a human being with flesh and blood, instead of a cold, vengeful machine."

“Thank you, Mr. Johnson.” Dr. Kuseno nodded in agreement, his eyes filled with gratitude. “Genos is lucky to have met you.”

Qiao Sen waved his hand modestly: "Not at all, you flatter me."

Previously, there were no conditions available, but he also wished that Genos could regain his physical body and experience the life of a normal teenager.

But now, with the technology provided by Johnson, everything is different!

Chapter 292 The Examination Site

Johnson took off his prank coat, which he then made disappear with a magical wave of light.

"If you need technical support in bioengineering, I have someone I can work with."

"No need. When I was young, I dabbled in many disciplines, including biological sciences."

“Thank you for your kind offer, Mr. Johnson,” Dr. Kuseno shook his head, politely declining Johnson’s suggestion, and said, “It concerns Genos’s core secrets, and I still want to complete it independently.”

Qiao Sen was filled with awe. So you're actually a hidden genius who excels in all subjects!

"No problem at all."

……

Z City, Hero Recognition Assessment, 6th Special Venue.

After leaving the universal capsule and the android gene sample with Dr. Kuseno, Johnson bid farewell and left the research institute, heading instead to the hero assessment site where Saitama and Genos were.

As in previous years, the number of applicants this year exceeded 10000 across all test centers. In the remote Test Center No. 6 alone, more than 2000 people took the test.

This is why the real-time footage from the monitoring system shows that all the test sites are crowded with people.

"A year has passed, and the Hero Association's popularity remains high."

Sitting in the control room of the Z City branch, Qiao Sen looked at the sea of ​​people in the Hero Examination Hall and couldn't help but sigh.

“Yes, Lord Johnson,” Lanny said with a charming smile, accompanying him as she personally zoomed in on a surveillance camera and displayed it on the large screen. “The ‘Saitama’ you’re watching is indeed performing quite impressively!”

On the screen, Saitama is queuing in a crowd, wearing only a dark blue briefs that reveal his well-defined and dazzling muscles.

In fact, most of the people who dare to sign up for the hero assessment have a strong enough physique.

However, Saitama's unique hairstyle, sparse yet slightly flamboyant, was one of a kind in the entire event.

Based on this alone, even the cyborg boy in the metal outfit queuing next door didn't get as many attention as him.

The malicious comments and mocking glances he received were countless, but Saitama didn't care at all and automatically filtered out all this negative information.

There were long queues in the venue, but the efficiency of completing each assessment item was surprisingly high. So it wasn't long before it was Saitama's turn to take the stage.

"Next! 30 seconds of continuous lateral jumps!"

"Players are in position!!"

"ready, go!"

The moment the chief referee gave the instruction, Saitama, who had been grinning with a simple expression, instantly switched to a serious face!

With two crisp "bangs", the cement floor inside the venue suddenly dented, leaving two footprints five centimeters deep!

A sharp whistling sound arose from the air being rubbed together at high speed by an object. Saitama's figure accelerated in an instant, leaping back and forth between the two footprints at a terrifying speed that surpassed the senses of ordinary people!

Amidst a stunned crowd, his movements were so fast they were almost blurry. The referee in charge of counting stared at the afterimage before him, his lips twitching, completely unsure how to record the score!

"Oh my god! I can't see anything at all!"

"Wow, that man who looks a bit comical is fast!"

"Is he 'Super Cop's' friend? That's amazing!"

"It's a pity that he's already balding at such a young age..."

"That's what they mean by 'don't judge a book by its cover'!"

"..."

In the control room of the Z City Hero Association branch, exclamations of surprise rang out one after another. Many of the young women on duty for disaster reporting saw the astonishing scene on the big screen.

Johnson picked up the fragrant cappuccino beside him and responded to Lani's sentiments as a matter of course, saying, "Of course, Miss Lani, how could I possibly cause you any trouble?"

^_^|||

Lani silently wiped the sweat from her brow, a polite but embarrassed smile appearing on her pretty face.

"Yes, it is……"

……

City A, Hero Association Headquarters, Third Disaster Monitoring Room.

The situation here is similar to that at the Z City branch. Many association cadres are standing behind Xiqi, watching the live monitoring and video recordings of the 6th examination room on the big screen.

On a large screen divided into multiple sections, videos of the three examinees taking the exams were played repeatedly. These three individuals had distinct appearances and demeanors, but shared two commonalities—

All three were from the 6th special venue located in Z City.

All of his physical fitness test scores to date have been perfect!

Yes, following Saitama and Genos, Garou, under the coercion... no, under the accompaniment of Super Saiyan Blue Bang, also came to the Hero Selection Venue to register for the competition.

With Saitama and Genos setting a precedent, the Hero Association headquarters quickly took notice of another suspected S-class fighter in the 6th testing room.

The fact that three S-class heroes have gathered at the same venue today is unprecedented since the founding of the Hero Association.

After a moment's thought, Sitch ordered his men to switch the video of Hungry Wolf's assessment to the monitoring screen.

This was both to further observe the strength of the Hungry Wolf contestant and to create a direct contrast with the simply drawn, terrifying figure in the center of the screen.

As everyone knows, people's physical condition cannot be generalized. Similarly, there are differences between perfect scores in the hero assessment.

For example, the cyborg Genos and the white-haired, bull-horned martial artist Garou, who were projected on either side of the big screen, far surpassed the performances of the other examinees, making them stand out from the rest of the examinees today.

I completed almost all the assessment items to the highest standard, so it's perfectly reasonable that I got full marks.

Anyone can directly feel that terrifying power that transcends the ordinary from their bodies!

But the strange figure that remained, occupying the center of the big screen, was something no one could understand...

The strong wind generated by the continuous lateral jumps blew the referee's hat off.

He lapped his group of runners three times in the 1500-meter race and reached the finish line alone.

In the weightlifting event, he lifted the challenging weight of the S-class hero "Super Alloy Darkshine" from headquarters during his serious training with just one hand.

He damaged the venue's ceiling twice, once with a shot put and once with his balding head...
