"W-what is that?!" Sexy Prisoner noticed the anomaly, his keen intuition making the hairs on his body stand on end.
Everyone looked in the direction he pointed, only to see a tiny green dot in the sky rapidly expanding at an alarming speed.
Boom—!!!
A green figure, like a meteor, crashed into the center of the battlefield. The ground instantly cracked, and the shockwave directly sent the unprepared Metal Bat and Sexy Prisoner flying!
"Who's there?!" Atomic Samurai's pupils constricted, and he unconsciously tightened his grip on his sword hilt.
Amidst the rising smoke and dust, a terrifying figure slowly straightened up.
He was exceptionally tall, covered from head to toe in a layer of dark green carapace that shimmered with a metallic luster.
His bulging muscles exuded an explosive sense of power, and simply standing there, he emanated a terrifying aura of malevolence.
The most striking feature was the three large mouths on his body.
One was in the position of a normal head, while the other two were on his left and right thick arms, replacing what would traditionally be hands.
All three enormous mouths were filled with layers of sharp, shark-like teeth, glinting with a chilling cold light.
"Groribas?"
Melzargard, who had been entangled with the heroes, his four remaining heads all let out surprised sounds upon seeing the newcomer.
"How pathetic, Melzargard."
Groribas said, every word carrying undisguised mockery and disdain.
He didn't even glance at the heroes first, instead focusing his attention entirely on his companion.
"Dealing with a few natives took you this long, and you even lost a head. Lord Boros is growing impatient."
Then, Groribas finally turned around, facing the S-Class Heroes, and said:
"A bunch of natives, daring to resist the overlord of the universe?"
"Your planet, your civilization, your lives, before Lord Boros's fleet, are all but dust."
One of the Dark Matter Thieves' highest-ranking combatants, one of the Three Cosmic Warriors, Groribas, officially entered the fray!
"Another one?!" A roar broke the oppressive atmosphere.
Tanktop Master, who had rushed over after noticing the commotion from afar, charged directly forward.
"No matter how many come, I, Tanktop Master, will face them head-on!"
Before he finished speaking, his robust muscles instantly bulged, making his white tanktop strain as if it were about to burst.
The ground beneath him cracked violently, and he transformed into an unstoppable white cannonball, charging towards Groribas.
He intended to use his proud "Tanktop Power" to crush this arrogant invader head-on!
"Foolish brute force."
Groribas didn't even move a single step, his face filled with disdain.
The head on his left arm rotated slightly, precisely locking onto the rapidly approaching target.
"Killer Move: Acid Armor-Piercing Ray!"
A highly compressed stream of acid shot out from his mouth, its speed so great that even Atomic Samurai could barely track it!
Tanktop Master's proud "Tanktop Power" was as thin as paper before this powerful acid ray.
"Pfft!"
The acid stream instantly pierced through his shoulder blade, leaving a terrifying, bowl-sized hole that was still emitting white smoke.
The intense corrosive pain made him let out a scream, and he heavily dropped to one knee, instantly losing his combat capability.
"Tanktop Master!"
Child Emperor, observing the entire battlefield from nearby, was greatly alarmed and immediately released several mechanical spiders from his multi-functional backpack, attempting to restrain Groribas with an electric net.
"Child's play." Groribas didn't even bother to look, opening another head.
"Killer Move: Corrosive Atomization!"
A pale green acid mist rapidly spread out from him as its center.
As soon as the high-tech mechanical spiders touched the acid mist, their precise casings emitted a "sizzling" sound of dissolution, their circuits quickly shorted, and they fell to the ground, smoking black, turning into a pile of scrap metal.
"My equipment!"
Child Emperor quickly retreated, avoiding the spreading acid mist.
His face beneath his mask was pale, and a storm raged in his heart.
"Such strong corrosiveness... This completely exceeds any known corrosive substance recorded in the database!"
Groribas's arrival, using only two skills, rendered two S-Class Heroes helpless!
"Such speed! Such bizarre attacks!"
At this moment, Bang, who was entangled with Melzargard, moved.
He transformed into a streak of light, approaching Groribas at an imperceptible speed, his hands leaving afterimages as he unleashed his perfected martial art—Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist!
"Good speed, old man."
One of Groribas's heads precisely predicted all of Bang's attack routes.
He chose not to meet the attack head-on, instead displaying combat intelligence completely unsuited to his massive physique.
Just as Bang's hand-blade was about to cut into his neck, the head on his arm suddenly opened its gaping maw, snapping back at Bang's neck!
An alarm blared in Bang's mind, his extensive combat experience making him realize the danger of that bite.
He forcibly interrupted his continuous attack, engaging his core, and narrowly dodged the fatal bite by a hair's breadth, even catching the strong stench from the opponent's mouth.
However, just as he hadn't even caught his breath, Melzargard, who had just regenerated nearby, as if in perfect sync with Groribas, transformed one of its arms into a giant scythe, silently sweeping in from behind Bang!
A pincer attack, perfectly coordinated!
Bang, the martial arts master, for the first time found himself in an impossible predicament, only able to awkwardly roll sideways to dodge, completely losing his attack rhythm.
"You stinking bug!"
Seeing his comrades repeatedly suffer setbacks and himself being disregarded, Metal Bat's rage was completely ignited, and his continuously accumulating "fighting spirit" pushed his strength to its peak.
He endured the acid mist still corroding his skin beneath his feet, his leg muscles exploded, and he leaped high into the air.
Clutching his beloved Metal Bat with both hands, he brought down a powerful "Home Run" strike with immense force towards Groribas's head!
Facing this mountain-splitting blow, Groribas neither dodged nor evaded, a cruel smile even playing at the corners of his mouth.
"Bring it on!"
At the crucial moment, Melzargard's body instantly blocked in front of Groribas, its two arms transforming into an incredibly thick giant shield, taking the blow head-on!
Boom!!!
A violent collision echoed through the sky!
The giant shield was dented and cracked, but Melzargard merely swayed, quickly repairing the damage with its regeneration ability.
It successfully created a perfect output environment for Groribas.
