The Fight Continues ...

Whoosh !

A vague after image flashed past and when Saitama appeared again he was less than a foot away from Duke.

What a fast speed, Duke thought.

Duke's heart burst out with fighting intent, Saitama's sharp punch has not reached Duke yet. Instinctively, Duke moved one of his hands to block Saitama's punch while another hand formed a fist to punch Saitama's lower abdomen with an lower hook.

Saitama's reaction was even faster as Duke's fist hit the after image of Saitama.

Duke shook his arm which had endured the punch from Saitama. Saitama had no weaknesses in terms of speed, strength or endurance. It was unlike any enemy that Duke had fought before, this excited Duke even more.

More ever this was not Saitama's upper limit, Duke could feel this. Duke knew Saitama was stronger than him, how much stronger Duke did not know.

"This is what's called a battle !", Duke shouted out excitedly. The power erupting from Duke's body began to grow even more.

With a big laugh, Duke quickly followed Saitama who was moving at the speed of light as their battle continued.

Duke's sudden increase in speed made Saitama surprised. Duke caught up with Saitama hitting Saitama from behind with his fists. The powerful force made Saitama short of breathe, his chest tightened as Saitama was blasted into the ground by a huge force.

Boom !

From the layer of soil, Saitama climbed up from it unscathed. Saitama spit out the sand in his mouth and nodded at Duke and asked, "You are really strong, can you become stronger ?".

"As you wish.", Duke said as he released more of his power, the Earth around Duke cracked as sound of explosions went off as his energy surged upwards.

Boom !

Duke moved and a fist hit Saitama's face knocking him away from Duke.

Duke followed Saitama's falling body like a shadow. Multiple after images of both Duke and Saitama could be seen. After Duke caught up to Saitama, a barrage of fist flew from Duke towards Saitama. Saitama chose to face Duke's fist head on.

Fist and fist collided, the two of them released their suppressed strength to their hearts content. And the two of them never stopped attacking each other the desert was filled with explosions and hurricanes over hundreds of kilometres.

What fast speed, what strength, Duke thought to himself.

Duke moved faster and faster and increased his strength more and more and at the same time he became more and more frightened. Duke kept increasing his strength and speed but Saitama could keep up with him in a very short period of time. This brought Duke endless physiological pressure as he did not know the limit of Saitama's strength. Duke could not see the limit of Saitama's strength.

"Take this !", Duke shouted as Duke condensed a supernova energy bomb in his hand and use it to blast Saitama away. Duke's strength and speed increased again. Now you could not even see the after images of Duke or Saitama, both of them were now invisible to the naked eye.

Boom !

As the supernova energy bomb shot out an energy wave hit Saitama engulfing his whole body.

Boom ! Boom ! Boom !

Thousand of meters away, a light flashed as a mushroom cloud the size of a city appeared in the sky engulfing Saitama.

Suddenly the wind ruffled Duke's clothes and the ground beneath Duke's feet never stopped shaking. This was an earthquake caused by the fight between Duke and Saitama.

However Duke was still alert, never letting down his vigilance waiting for Saitama's counter attack. Duke could feel the surging energy from the centre of the explosion increasing higher and higher.

"Are you getting serious ?", Duke asked as he looked towards the mushroom cloud the size of a city.

Duke's figure disappeared.

Boom ! Boom ! Boom !

The aftermath of the explosion hadn't finished yet and two figures met in mid air again. Fist meets fist, feet met feet, in a short period of time countless offensive between these two parties had occurred.

Duke managed to sneak in a punch on Saitama's face, hitting him in the nose. Saitama staggered backward holding his nose due to the force of the punch. Duke complained in his heart, "How hard is your face ?". Suddenly a fist slammed into Duke's abdomen, Duke could only use his hands to block the other incoming attack from Saitama. Sounds of countless explosions could be heard but no after images could be seen in the desert as the two parties are moving too fast.

The hit in Duke's abdomen slowed down Duke's offensive causing Saitama to notice this flaw. Saitama seized this flaw to launch a barrage of fist attack on Duke. Saitama used this flaw to suppress Duke.

Duke was suppressed and began to reveal more flaws. Duke had unlimited strength, speed and stamina and was best at protracted combat. But Saitama had unlimited strength, speed and stamina as well. The frenzied attacks from Saitama continued as he began to control the rhythm of the battle.

As Saitama controlled the rhythm of the battle he managed to land a fist and kick on Duke causing him to fly away from Saitama.

As Duke moved away from Saitama in mid air, Duke whispered from his shaking teeth, "Monster.".

Standing on the ground waiting for Duke to land from mid air was Saitama with his fist ready to give Duke a punch when he landed on the ground.

The sinister intentions of the bald Saitama could clearly be seen by Duke from mid air. Duke held his hands up in the air converging Qi in his body to create a super supernova energy bomb. The energy bomb grew bigger and bigger.
