Satan Saint's roar, filled with endless humiliation and rage, like the wail of a wounded beast, exploded within the silent underground laboratory!
He, Jaygarcia Saturn!
Was a descendant of the "Creator" who ruled the world for eight hundred years! He was the supreme "God" who stood above billions of living beings!
But now... he was actually... forced to his knees by a "bug" in his eyes, in the most humiliating and barbaric way?!
This kind of immense disgrace was something he had never experienced in his long life, which was filled with pride and majesty!
"Roar—!!!!"
He roared wildly! A black-purple flame, even more intense and ominous than before, like the karma fire of hell, instantly erupted from his bizarre body!
Enveloped by the black-purple flames, his several giant spider legs, which had been brutally snapped by terrifying gravity, actually... regenerated and recovered at a speed that defied the laws of life!
"Oh?"
Takero looked at the bizarre scene before him, the expression of interest in his eyes suddenly widening.
"I've been meaning to ask, how does your guy's... injuries recover so quickly?"
This near-instant regeneration ability was almost comparable to his Senzu Beans, which could be said to be quite astonishing.
Thus, to satisfy his strong curiosity, Takero's mind stirred, and he quietly withdrew the terrifying gravitational field that was enough to crush mountains.
However, Satan Saint, who had just escaped, had already been completely consumed by the towering rage! How could he still answer Takero's question?
At this moment, only one thought remained in his mind—
Kill this... damned commoner... who dared to blaspheme "God"!
To vent the hatred in his heart!
"Die!!!"
He let out an angry roar, his newly regenerated giant spider legs, like sharp war spears, lifted high, carrying a shriek that tore through space, and mercilessly pierced towards Takero's heart!
However, Takero remained standing in place, neither dodging nor evading.
Facing the fatal attack that could easily penetrate a battleship, he merely casually raised his arm and held it in front of him.
"Clang—!!!!"
Another ear-piercing clang of metal!
Satan Saint's incredibly sharp spider leg, the moment it touched Takero's seemingly ordinary forearm, was like hitting an unshakeable Wall of Sighs made of the hardest diamond! It could no longer... advance an inch!
Takero felt the considerable force coming from his arm, and a renewed interest arose in his eyes.
"I didn't expect it," he said, "your old geezer, you're... quite strong."
"Alright."
"...I'll play with you properly."
He exerted force directly!
"Boom—!!!"
Unreasonable and terrifying power erupted from his arm!
Satan Saint only felt an irresistible, volcanic surge of immense power rushing from the point of impact! His massive, mountain-like body was uncontrollably thrown backwards!
However, before he could stabilize himself in mid-air, a red afterimage, as if teleporting, appeared above him!
Takero grabbed Satan Saint's hideous, demonic-looking giant horns on his head!
Then, he grinned.
"It's too small here, can't stretch out."
"Let's... go outside to play."
"!!!!"
Immediately, Satan Saint only felt a terrifying immense force, enough to uproot him, coming from the top of his head!
"Boom—! Rumble rumble—!!!!"
Takero grabbed Satan Saint's horns, as if holding a handy battering ram, and without bothering with any passages, he directly smashed into the dome of the underground laboratory!
What sturdy alloy ceiling! What thick protective soil layer!
In front of Takero's barbaric, utterly unreasonable absolute power, they simply didn't exist!
He directly, forcefully carved out a massive tunnel, dozens of meters underground, leading directly to the outside world, filled with violent aesthetics!
...Inside the underground laboratory, Robin and Monet were staring blankly at the bottomless giant hole in the ceiling, from which dirt and rubble were still falling, and then looked at each other in unison.
"That... that..." Monet asked timidly, "Robin... what should we... do now?"
Robin helplessly held her forehead and sighed.
"What else can we do?"
"...Find someone to clean up the mess."
She knew that her master's personality, "once he gets worked up, no one can stop him," had acted up again.
What could she do with such a master?
She could only... endure it.
She could only sigh silently in her heart again.
'Sigh... it seems after today, the relationship between us and the World Government will be completely torn apart.'
...On the other side, Takero, who was holding Satan Saint and "breaking out of the ground" all the way, flew higher and higher, rushing straight towards the bright sky! Fierce clouds rapidly swept past him.
Satan Saint in his hand struggled vigorously, like an insect caught by an eagle.
"Let me go! You damned commoner! Let me go!!!"
With that, Satan Saint's body suddenly erupted with those dark, viscous flames, like the karma fire of hell, instantly engulfing Takero's entire body! As if to burn him, along with his soul, to ashes!
However, Takero, at the center of the hellfire, was stunned.
He felt the scorching flames on his body.
It wasn't that these flames could cause him any substantial harm.
But... he could clearly feel that the invisible energy cloak, spontaneously formed by "Ki" on his body, was actually... slowly being... eroded under the burning of these dark flames?!
Although the speed of erosion was negligible, almost ignorable.
But he did feel it!
This novel, unprecedented experience instantly made Takero's black eyes burst with an extremely interested light, as if he had discovered a new continent!
He lowered his head and looked at the "horned spider monster" still struggling madly below, and asked with interest:
"Hey, old geezer."
"Your black fire..."
"...What exactly is it?"
