Chapter 21 – Giant Meteor
A Giant Meteor classified as “Threat Level Dragon” hurtles toward Earth.
Inside his apartment, Saitama casually reads the newspaper while Genos informs him about his rising popularity in the Hero Association.
Suddenly, the Hero Association calls Genos, summoning him to confront the imminent disaster.
At the branch office, Genos meets Bang (S-Class Rank 3), who warns him of the impossible task: the meteor’s destruction.
Despite knowing the odds, Genos prepares to fight.
He activates “ARMS MODE,” merging with advanced weaponry to unleash his full cyborg potential.
As Genos charges toward the meteor, another hero, Metal Knight, appears.
However, Metal Knight refuses to cooperate, using the event to test his weapons. His missile barrage fails to damage the meteor.
With only seconds left, Genos launches a powerful blast but barely scratches the meteor. Exhausted and resigned, Genos urges Bang to escape.
Saitama arrives, leaping skyward. With one devastating punch, Saitama obliterates the meteor, breaking it into smaller fragments. However, the debris rains destruction across the city.
Bang uses his martial arts to shield Genos from the falling shards, while Saitama lands unharmed in an empty street.
As chaos subsides, Saitama, unaffected by the heroics, casually declares his job is done.
Chapter 22 – Voices
City Z narrowly escapes destruction after Saitama obliterates the giant meteor, though widespread damage remains.
Watching the news, Genos realizes Saitama’s punch saved countless lives.
Despite this, the Hero Association ranks Genos up from S-Class Rank 17 to 16, while Saitama jumps from C-Class Rank 342 to Rank 5—a rank far below his efforts.
Genos explains the Association credited Metal Knight and downplayed Saitama’s role.
As Saitama walks through the ruined city, he encounters Tank-Top Tiger, who accuses him of fraud.
Tiger calls his brother, Tank-Top Black Hole, a B-Class hero, to back him up. Together, they blame Saitama for the destruction and rally angry townspeople against him.
The mob demands Saitama quit being a hero.
Remaining calm at first, Saitama counters when attacked. A single punch sends Tank-Top Tiger flying.
When Tank-Top Black Hole tries to grapple him, Saitama effortlessly grips his hand, leaving him in agony.
After silencing the heroes, Saitama confesses to destroying the meteor and scolds the crowd. He declares he doesn’t need their approval as long as he’s saving lives.
Days later, a massive sea monster floods and attacks the city.
Chapter 23 – Threat From The Sea
A monstrous sea creature belonging to the Clan of the Seafolk with Disaster Level Wolf appears, spreading panic among the city’s residents.
The Octopus-like tentacled beast wreaks havoc until Saitama obliterates it with a single punch, leaving rumors of a C-Class hero capable of instant victories circulating.
Days later, a massive tsunami strikes, carrying terrifying Seafolk monsters. The chaos intensifies as a Tiger-level sea monster with tentacles and muscular legs emerges.
The “A-Class Rank 11” hero, Stinger, arrives, cutting a monster’s tentacle and saving a civilian using his “Spear Bamboo Shoot”.
Stinger boldly confronts multiple Seafolks, wielding his spear to defeat six monsters in a fierce battle, then taking out four more with a devastating attack called “Gigantic Stinger Drill Quadruple Thrust”.
However, Stinger is badly injured as he’s struck by a massive sea creature wearing a crown and cape—a clear leader among the Seafolk.
Meanwhile, Genos, washing dishes at Saitama’s apartment, informs his sensei about their recent rank advancements.
Their conversation is interrupted by news of the Seafolk invasion in City J.
Determined, Saitama and Genos head to the scene, overtaking a group of C-Class heroes traveling by car.
With destruction mounting and the Seafolk’s leader threatening the city, Saitama prepares to confront the new menace.
Chapter 24 – Deep Sea King
Saitama and Genos sprint toward City J, 15 km away, where chaos unfolds. The threat level escalates from Tiger to Demon, prompting a citywide evacuation.
Deep Sea King, a towering, muscular sea monster, marches through empty streets under a stormy sky.
Hero Lightning Max, observing from a distance, debates attacking or waiting for reinforcements. Before he decides, Deep Sea King appears behind him.
Lightning Max lands a powerful kick with an explosive shockwave, but it doesn’t faze the monster.
Recognizing his disadvantage, Max nervously tries to hold his ground. Deep Sea King punches him, sending him crashing through a building window.
As the building collapses, Max struggles to escape but finds himself cornered.
He unleashes a technique called “Lightning Flying Backwards Roundhouse Kick”, creating a burst of lightning against the monster’s face, but it’s ineffective.
Deep Sea King retaliates, throwing Lightning Max out of the building and leaving him unconscious in the street.
Puri-Puri Prisoner arrives just in time, rescuing Lightning Max from the rubble.
The flamboyant hero, who escaped prison to join the fight, meets Sonic, another escaped convict.
As they discuss their sentence, Deep Sea King emerges from the dust, ready for the next confrontation.
Chapter 24.5 – Prison
Speed-o-Sound Sonic is escorted into prison by guards, bound in a high-security contraption. He is placed in the “Smelly Lid Prison,” a facility housing the most dangerous criminals.
As the guards explain the prison’s reputation, Sonic immediately asserts dominance.
He dislocates a prisoner’s shoulder with a simple bump and ignores warnings from the older inmate, Demolition John, who breaks his hand trying to punch Sonic.
Sonic declares his disdain for the other inmates, calling them weak and vowing to kill them all. Tensions escalate as a muscular prisoner, skilled in Kenpo, confronts Sonic.
In a swift move, Sonic subdues him by locking his arm and throwing him to the ground.
Before a full riot ensues, a booming voice yells, “SHUT UP,” silencing the chaos. The prisoners nervously reveal their boss—a feared inmate who punishes others in humiliating and violating ways.
The boss, lounging in his cell watching TV, suddenly leaps into action after hearing about trouble involving his “Stinger Baby.”
He charges through the wall, leaving a massive hole and alarming the entire prison. Sonic, stunned by the boss’s strength, sees an opportunity to escape amidst the chaos.
Meanwhile, Saitama and Genos, watching the Clan of the Seafolk rampaging the city, prepare to face the new threat.
