Black-robed Superman from a certain American comic book

"Ah! Eyes!"

Boros, exposed to the intense light, instinctively closed his eyes. It was in that instant that Jupiter seized the opportunity and began to relentlessly beat Boros on the head.

Now that Jupiter knew that Boros's strength was far greater than he had imagined, he would not give Boros another chance to remove his restraint armor.

He wanted to take advantage of the moment when Boros's energy level was suppressed to kill Boros.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Jupiter gripped Boros's throat with one hand, pressed his knee against Boros's eye in the chest, and pounded Boros's head repeatedly with the other hand. His eyes also emitted heat vision from time to time, giving Boros no chance to open his eyes. Boros, who could not see anything, could only wave his hands wildly and was completely unable to launch an effective attack.

"Bang! Bang! Bang!"

Under Jupiter's relentless fists, countless amounts of tomato sauce were splattered onto Boros's head.

"enough!"

And so, after being relentlessly battered by Jupiter's smooth combo for a full five minutes, Boros finally snapped.

"boom!"

A powerful energy burst forth from Boros's body, and Jupiter, caught off guard, was propelled away by this energy.

"I'm getting serious!"

Taking advantage of the few seconds Jupiter was thrown away, Boros instantly tore his armor apart, releasing a massive amount of energy from his body.

"boom!"

In an instant, the entire spaceship trembled as the Emperor awakened!

"That armor was created by me specifically to suppress the energy within my body. I am now in my full potential!"

"The moment I take off my armor will also signify that the battle is about to end."

Boros revealed his azure skin and stared coldly at Jupiter with his eyes, which were burning red from Jupiter's intense gaze.

"..."

Jupiter floated in the air, coldly watching Boros, who had removed his armor. Boros, now in his full form, possessed a powerful energy level that had reached the standard stellar level. Although it seemed similar to Jupiter's quasi-stellar level, differing by only one word, their overall magnitudes were worlds apart...

but……

"Asura Mode!"

In an instant, Jupiter entered Asura mode and used the Asura Rhinoceros Beetle's cellular energy release method. In a short time, Jupiter's powerful energy level approached the standard star infinitely.

"Haha! Very good! Very good! That's it..."

Boros gazed at Jupiter, who had activated the cellular energy release technique, and was instantly filled with excitement. He felt his heart pounding; the last time he felt this way was twenty years ago…

"boom!"

Jupiter instantly appeared in front of Boros, clenched his right fist, and punched Boros in the cheek as he laughed wildly.

"puff……"

Boros remained still, his neck slightly bent, a mouthful of tomato sauce dribbling from the corner of his mouth.

"Ha ha……"

That's it!!

Jupiter's fists continued to stimulate Boros's nerves. For the first time in twenty years, Boros bled and rediscovered the feeling he had back then.

"You talk too much nonsense!"

Jupiter looked at the excited Boros and spoke in a cold voice.

"bump!"

The next second, before Boros could even straighten his body, his fist had already landed on Jupiter's face.

"puff……"

Feeling the burning pain on his face, Jupiter seemed to recall a year ago, before he had awakened his superpowers. Back then, he was still participating in the club's trials, defeating one opponent after another with his fists. Although Jupiter didn't have any superpowers at the time, he was full of passion. He enjoyed the thrill of defeating his enemies in battle. However, this thrill disappeared after he awakened his cosmic abilities. But at this moment, facing the powerful Boros, that feeling returned.

Are you getting excited too?

Boros, now excited, looked at the surprised Jupiter and laughed.

"You talk too much nonsense!"

Jupiter couldn't help but smile, and countless fists transformed into afterimages as they attacked Boros.

"Hahaha……"

"You're really getting excited!"

Boros looked at the sky filled with the shadows of fists, laughed loudly, and fought back defiantly.

"Bang bang bang bang..."

The moment the fists collided, the wind pressure and energy mixed together to form an aftershock that instantly enveloped the entire spaceship. The enormous spaceship, comparable in size to City A, began to sway precariously under the battle of these two tiny creatures!

The spaceship, which would not be damaged even if it traveled at sub-light speed in space, was now burning red-hot, as if it were completely engulfed in flames.

A series of booming sounds echoed over City A!

The high temperatures inside the spaceship, reaching hundreds or even thousands of degrees Celsius, had killed everyone except Jupiter and Boros.

"That spaceship is going to be destroyed!"

"If it falls like this, City A will probably be destroyed!"

Bang stood with his hands behind his back, looking helplessly at the scorching spaceship above him. His ultimate technique, Flowing Rock Shattering Fist, was completely ineffective against something of that size. Even if the spaceship were to fall down, there was nothing he could do.

The remaining S-class heroes standing below the spaceship gazed at the enormous, burning spaceship that resembled a fireball, their foreheads covered in sweat.

Chapter 80: Was the prophecy actually true?

"All the residents in the city have been evacuated! Those who are too old to evacuate have been sent to the Hero Association headquarters!"

"That's a super shelter that we commissioned Metal Knight to build. Even if that spaceship does crash, it won't cause any casualties!"

"My heroes, you should also seek refuge quickly!"

The blond-haired boy who had been following Hickey all along walked up to the group of S-class heroes and began to speak.

"Hahaha……"

"How foolish!"

"Refuge? Where can you seek refuge?"

"Do you really think there's a safe place on any planet that's been targeted by our Dark Matter Pirates?"

"If you think that defeating me means you've won, then you're only being too naive..."

"Once that person takes action, all your resistance will be meaningless."

Hearing the little golden retriever's words, Melzargardo, who was under Tornado's psychic control, burst into laughter. Each of his five heads spoke a sentence, mocking the heroes.

"You bastard..."

Upon hearing Melzagarudo's words, Tornado's expression turned angry, and she tightened her grip slightly with her fingertips.

"Forehead……"

In an instant, Melzagard was unable to make a sound. Not only that, his body also made a 'squeaking' sound, as if the tornado intended to crush Melzagard into dust.

"Tornado, calm down. Don't crush him. Let's hear what he has to say."

Bang, however, had a good sense of the bigger picture. Seeing that Tatsumaki was about to kill Melzagarudo, he spoke up to stop her.

"Humph~"

Upon hearing this, Tornado gently relaxed her fingers, which had been gripping tightly.

"Whoa, whoa, whoa..."

Melzargard, whose life had been saved, gasped for breath, glancing fearfully at Tatsumaki. He hadn't expected such a terrifying being to exist on this remote planet. Even if the planet were conquered, if this superhuman was willing to join the Dark Matter Pirates, he could probably receive very favorable treatment. Perhaps, his outstanding strength might even earn him Boros's favor, allowing him to surpass Boros's status from the Third Shinobi World War…

"Tell me, who was that 'sir' you were talking about earlier?"

Tornado wrapped her arms around herself, her body floating lightly in the air, and looked at Melzagarudo, asking a question.

"That sir..."

"He is the overlord of the entire universe, the leader of the Dark Matter Pirates, Lord Boros!"

Meluzagarudo dared not defy the tornado and revealed Boros's name.

"The overlord of the entire universe?"

The S-class heroes were stunned by Boros's name. Although a person's name doesn't mean much, people with powerful names are generally not to be underestimated. The overlord of the entire universe, anyone who dares to use such a name would have to have some strength.

"Why would the ruler of the entire universe set its sights on our remote planet?"

Tong Di was somewhat puzzled. As a genius teenager, he knew that Blue Star was just one of countless tiny planets in the universe. He really couldn't understand why a cosmic overlord would want to conquer a weak planet like theirs that hadn't even left the solar system.

"It's because of a prophecy. Twenty years ago, when Lord Boros conquered a resource planet, he consulted a witch who was very famous throughout the universe. The witch prophesied that Boros would meet an opponent who was his equal here!"

"Heh, an opponent on par with Lord Boros? What a joke, it's just a lie told by those bastards to send Lord Boros away..."

“That’s right, there is no opponent in this world who can be on par with Lord Boros.”

"Foolish witch, after we conquer this planet, we'll go back and destroy theirs!"

Meruzagarudo started talking to himself again.

"Enough with the nonsense..."

Tornado listened to the muttering Melzagardo with some displeasure, and with a slight tightening of her fingers, she silenced Melzagardo once again.

"Tornado, ask that alien about the strength of that cosmic overlord."

Bang stretched his limbs, seemingly preparing for a fight with Boros.

"Um……"

Upon hearing this, Tornado released Melzagarudo's neck.

"Cough cough cough..."

"Strength?! You're not planning to fight Lord Boros, are you?"

"Hahaha……"
