A cold light flashed in Duke's eyes as he look towards the direction of the disaster. Although he was a hero who was a bit lazy and never took the initiative to attack, Duke had never failed to save people in trouble. Duke was a hero !
"The direction of the Qi is to the East. It appeared so suddenly, I did not even notice it.", Duke murmured to himself.
A light pierced the sky as the cloud parted. Duke had disappeared from the supermarket and no one noticed his disappearance.
City A !
The urban area was hit by a wave of energy bombs from the sky, high rise buildings were collapsing under the barrage of the energy bombs. Streets and roads were destroyed. Countless people were buried in the ruins from the explosions.
The countless buildings that collapsed lifted up boundless dust. Among the collapsed rocks and ruins, countless screams and calls for help could be heard. However at this moment the people in City A only wanted to flee for their life and no one wanted to help or save the people trapped in the collapsed buildings.
After a period of time, the rain of energy bombs stopped leaving only the devastated neighbourhood. The cries of help had long been silent amid the devastated roads and buildings.
Among the ruins of City A, a mysterious being or a monster walked out. It was a muscular strange bald man with purple coloured skin. The thick muscles of this being was as hard as iron with a tough facial contour that showed no sign of emotion. This being's face had a cold expression and looked like Dragon Ball's world King Piccolo, the Demon King.
There were two snail like tentacles on this beings head together with two sharp elf like ears. This beings head was bald and shaped like a ball. This mysterious being look like the Namekians of Dragon Ball world.
This mysterious being was Vaccine Man !
A mysterious being born from the Earth due to humans destroying their environment and polluting their world. Vaccine Man was born to kill all humans.
When Duke arrived, Vaccine Man was reaching out to kill a little girl. In Vaccine Man's eyes all human beings are viruses that infect his mother the Earth. These viruses were killing the Earth and he Vaccine Man was born to kill off these viruses called human beings. Mankind were viruses in Vaccine Man's eyes and his mission was to kill off all human beings and save the Earth.
Vaccine Man's arm swelled and grew bigger the moment he reached out to the little girl. There was a cruel smile on Vaccine Man's face as he reached out to the little girl. You could not hide the killing intent coming from Vaccine Man towards the little girl. The little girl was suppose to be crushed into a smouldering pulp but there Vaccine Man's arm smash down towards the little girl he smashed into the broken street.
When Vaccine Man's claws smashed down he scratched his own hands with claws causing Vaccine Man's hand to be stained with his own purple blood. Vaccine Man failed to kill the little girl.
Huh ! Vaccine Man shouted out in disbelief.
The breeze blew away the smoke and you could see Duke appear on a street corner with a dazed little girl.
At this moment a heroic figure walked up to Vaccine Man, it was Saitama the One Punch Man who had almost made mysterious beings and monsters extinct. Saitama's combat effectiveness could not be measured by normal human means. The strongest being in existence Saitama only known for one word invincible ! Cough. Cough. Cough.
The reason why Duke could recognise Saitama was not Saitama's heroic look or invincible aura. It was because Saitama looked too ordinary, Saitama looked like an ordinary bald man with a funny yellow costume and a ridiculous cape. That's how Duke recognised Saitama the invincible. Saitama does not look like a hero, he looks like an bald idiot pretending to be a hero.
"Who are you ?", Vaccine Man asked Saitama. Vaccine Man obviously misunderstood and thought Saitama rescued the little girl. After all Duke was wearing a ridiculous floral short sleeved shirt together with flowery short pants. Duke looked like a lost tourist in City A.
Duke put down the little girl and looked at Vaccine Man, he knew that Vaccine Man was about to die from one punch from the invincible One Punch Man Saitama !
On the battlefield with Vaccine Man, Saitama blinked his eyes as he looked at Vaccine Man and said, "Just a guy who's a hero for fun.".
"Bald head are you joking with me !", Vaccine Man shouted out angrily as he still thought this idiotic superhero had saved the little girl totally ignoring Duke.
"Bald ?!", Saitama shouted out angrily as he looked at Vaccine Man.
The lack of hair and his bald head had been Saitama's secret pain in this life. But this time Saitama was as not as angry as other times when someone called him bald. "Why do you say that ? Aren't you also bald.", Saitama asked curiously.
"Asshole ! Don't compare me with you, who do you think I am !", Vaccine Man shouted out angrily. Vaccine Man was angry as he himself was upset that he was bald, every bald person has an obsession with hair follicles and Vaccine Man was no exception.
"I was born because you humans continue to pollute the environment. And my existence to wipe out the virus known as human beings in this world. At the same time to wipe out the harmful civilisation you created.", Vaccine Man said angrily as he roared at the end of his sentence.
Because of his anger Vaccine Man's body swelled several times bigger as his body deformed into a monster. Vaccine Man's claw grew out, his teeth became longer and sharper. Finally Vaccine Man transformed into a huge hideous monster.
"I am not an ordinary bald head. I was born by Mother Earth to save the planet from humans. You bald head cannot be compared to my noble existence.", Vaccine Man said angrily.
A huge shadow seem to cover Saitama as he seemed to be thinking of something. "Even if you say it again and again aren't you also bald like me ?", Saitama asked innocently.
"Can you stop saying bald !", Vaccine Man shouted out furiously as he threw a punch at Saitama.
Bang !
The sound of two fist colliding could be heard. One from a little ordinary looking bald man in a yellow costume and cape. Another from a huge hideous purple monster.
There was no suspense or fight to death. There was no surprise at all. Saitama killed Vaccine Man with one punch and not even a shred of Vaccine Man remained.
Duke could see the force of the punch from Saitama, it was not a serious punch and it took barely any effort. Saitama was not being serious.
When the battle was over Duke was about to leave but he was stopped by Saitama, the invincible One Punch Man.
"You are strong. Can you fight with me ?", Saitama asked politely. Saitama's eyes flashed with excitement, he knew that Duke was the strongest being that he had ever encountered.
