章節 37: The End II

Me and Saitama sat in front of a giant door with a large eye-like sphere on it.

"This is a boss room if I have ever seen one." I murmured.

"I am going to punch it." Saitama ran forward.

"Hey, remember this one is mine, okay?"

"Yeah, yeah." Saitama seemed a little disappointed but let me have it as he had promised.

He punched the door open, just like he said and blew open the door, scattering debris and dust everywhere.

I would never get over his ridiculous strength. I had already experienced with my own hands how tough everything on this ship was, and he busted it like concrete.

Or at least how concrete reacts to my fists.

As the smoke settled, a throne was revealed at the other end of the hall.

There, a spiky haired cycloptic alien sat and stared from the throne above us both.

He was strong enough that I could feel it in the air.

Or that was the dust.

I am glad that Saitama let me fight first. I might be able to even experiment with my abilities as Saitama had my back if I started to lose.

The alien stood up from its throne, a clinking here and there in its armour. It also had a long red cape, in sharp contrast to that of Saitama's pure white cape.

"You must be the boss of the invaders, right?" I wanted to be sure.

"Perfect!"

Ah, the boss line, therefore he is the boss.

"Before we fight, let us introduce ourselves."

Introductions too? Fancy, but nothing new. These guys really are just monsters with some flair.

"I lead the pirate band known as Dark Matter, and I am Dominator of the Universe. I am Boros."

That was a good introduction, I had to admit. I wonder what kind of space pirating they do?

Sell planets?

Cliché, but maybe.

Hmm... Rob other spaceships?

They seem too haughty to do something so low, not to mention how impressive their ship is. Maybe they did it at one point, but I am reading too much into this.

They go down today so who cares.

Saitama introduced himself first, "I am a hero for- I mean, I am a professional hero. My name's Saitama."

"I am a fellow hero associate, the name's Fukui. I would say it's nice to meet you, but you look creepy, act creepy and blew up an entire city that I live near, so it really isn't."

I tried to provoke him but all his attention seemed to be on Saitama.

"Saitama..."

"I am not entirely sure what the Denominator of the Universe wants with earth, but you sure trashed City A." Saitama slipped on the name immediately but neither seemed to care.

"What I want with Earth?"

Oh man, does Saitama always let them tell their stories? It's kind of annoying to learn the story of someone or something who will die after, but I guess he has to have some other hobby than punching monsters from time to time.

The alien started to walk down the stairs from his throne, walking directly to Saitama as he did so.

Was he gay or something?

"There exists a prophecy."

"I assume a lot of those exist." I commented.

Once again, no one seemed to hear me.

Was I even here, or was I imagining it? Was I actually dreaming?

Can't be, I haven't had any dreams since awakening this power.

"Once, I traveled the universe, ravaging everything in sight."

'And you've stopped that clearly.' I rolled my eyes.

They didn't actually roll because controlling my eyes while I was using my powers was extremely difficult and a waste of my time if I focused on being sarcastic with my powers.

"But I was too strong. Eventually, there were none left who could face me. I came to know the torment of utter, all-encompassing boredom."

Sounds familiar.

"Then one day, a seer told me that on a faraway planet, a being exists who is my match, one who could rekindle my passion for battle. That was nearly twenty earth years ago. Have you any idea the distance I have traveled to get here? My men thought the prophecy was a ruse, made up to lure me away. Seeing you, however, I am certain. Come. Give stimulation to my existence. That is why I am here."

It wasn't that long of a story, but I stopped listening when he said that it was 20 years ago.

"Ah, sorry, I actually promised my friend that she would get to fight the next one." Saitama pointed toward me, impatiently tapping my foot with my arms folded.

I didn't take kindly to being ignored, but I also took the time to increase my strength. It was slow and tedious but I had made myself stronger in the time we have been talking.

I had figured out how to do this after having the gravity increase over my by Gergelyshoopi, or whatever it's name was. It was hard to say which makes it hard to remember.

Like, Boros is easy.

Glad he has a simple name.

"Your little friend wants to fight me? You want her to die first?"

"You sure can try, cyclops." I taunted.

"So you do want to die? Very well, I shall fulfill your wish and get on with the real fight afterwards."

He turned toward me and I could see a flash of slight surprise.

"You seem to be getting stronger by the second. Interesting. This may be a good warm-up match."

I didn't like him looking down on me, but he seemed to be able to tell how strong I was somehow. So I guess I have to believe that he is stronger than me.

Not for long I hope.

I got in a ready position, but before I even got ready he was in front of me.

I hastily blocked the blow and was sent flying through the extremely large throne room.

My arms were already aching from just blocking that first punch. What the hell?

I tumbled across the ground and stabilized myself quickly only for him to appear in front of me again.

I was ready for his speed this time, however, and managed to deflect it, which won me half a raised eyebrow.

Following that I fired a blast of flames directly into his face, which he shrugged off, but allowed me to get away from him.

I would have to condense the flames into a stronger blast if I wanted to deal some damage.

"With your strength I am surprised you have made it as far as you have. I am still suppressed by my armour and you couldn't even singe a hair on me." He taunted me but I was still focusing on overpowering him through endurance rather than strength.

He moved toward me again, but I was starting to see him. It was in flickers, like a light about to burn out, but I could see him.

I deflected the punch again through prediction as is another form of the martial art, but he was ready and threw another immediately afterwards, which I deflected again.

It seemed that my martial arts were good at combating against him.

This turned into a war of me deflecting his rapid attacks toward me.

"I am not quite sure how you are able to block my strikes, but it seems that you have a deceiving aura."

'Aura? I wonder if I can do that too. Could I use aura to be stronger?'

I had started creating strategies in my head, but first I grew protective scales all over my body, the same colour as my skin, except they faded into black with claws on my hands.

To give myself more options for attack, I also grew a tail and a pair of sharp horns that matched my claws.

At some point, the war broke off and we flew far from each other, me much further as he was still stronger. I could now see him much better though, and could follow his every move. I don't know how good it does me that my senses seem to be getting stronger faster than my body, but it is helping a decent amount.

He was brushing off his armour from a few strikes that I had managed to land, scratching it lightly.

"Hm it seems you are more of an issue than expected."

He took off his armour, letting it crash to pieces around him, his cape following.

"Now that my power has been unsealed you don't stand a chance."

I watched as his body noticeably bulked up and his skin turned a darker shade of blue, with the lines on his face glowing.

In an explosion of lights, colours, pink lightning and debris, his form changed.

First form change I think I have seen.

Meaning this would probably be impossible for me, but it couldn't hurt to try.

I will do my best!

A/N: Someone mentioned the ton of fighting comment last time being akin to dragon ball, but then I did no fighting, creating filler for something that doesn't need it.

Just like Dragon Ball.
