Chapter 183: Pointing and Prodding
On a certain planet.
After billions of years of long development, countless brilliant civilizations had been born here, and the civilization currently ruling this planet had reached the stage of exploring the Universe.
The Commander looked solemnly at the army waiting in formation below, while behind him, thousands of warships roared in unison like explosions. He shouted loudly:
"Everyone! According to the detections of various astronomers, those two unknown existences capable of fighting in the Universe with their Physical Bodies are already less than 300,000 kilometers away from our planet. This is an extremely dangerous distance.
For the survival of our civilization, for the continued development of our race, and to keep our planet from being destroyed, we must take the initiative to attack!
Behind us lies the accumulation of millions of years of wisdom; it is a fleet created by the joint efforts of the entire world. This is our confidence and the guarantee for protecting our home!
Even though those two unknown existences can fight a great war in the Universe, which clearly exceeds our imagination, we cannot sit still and wait for death! You battle-hardened warriors! Set out with me!"
"Kill!"
The tens of thousands of soldiers below saluted simultaneously, then rushed onto the warships in a frantic hurry.
This civilization had reached a moment of life and death; whether peace could be restored to the world depended on this single action!
In the Universe, a full 3,000 massive warships were lined up neatly, row after row of main cannons aimed at the area in the distance that was constantly emitting energy storms, the energy cannons within the muzzles ready to fire.
Seeing the energy storm getting closer and closer, the Commander standing in the cabin of the Starship looked tense, his voice spreading to every warship through the sensors:
"Fire!"
Thousands of energy cannons erupted with earth-shattering power, swirling and undergoing Fusion in space to form an incomparably massive energy shockwave that surged straight ahead.
When this energy shockwave, formed by the Fusion of over ten thousand energy cannons, hit those two unknown existences head-on, a violent explosion erupted instantly.
Seeing the hit, the soldiers inside the warships couldn't help but cheer, their eyes filled with the joy of surviving a disaster.
However, the Commander's face turned ashen, his whole body trembling uncontrollably as he murmured:
"It's over... it's all over..."
On the large screen in front of him, the energy signatures of those two unknown existences hadn't diminished in the slightest, as if the energy cannons hadn't caused any damage at all.
The next second, a golden light rippled out, instantly covering a range of tens of millions of miles.
One by one, the high-tech Starships melted away the moment they touched the golden light, turning into mechanical parts scattered across the sky.
The bewildered soldiers didn't even have time to react to what was happening before their entire bodies were enveloped in a surge of crimson blood-energy and thrown back to their own planet.
A space fleet organized by the collective strength of an entire civilization was easily dissolved without even seeing the primary targets.
King didn't care about that little interlude just now; the energy cannons released by the other party were practically nothing more than an itch to him and the Bald Demon King.
It seems we should stay as far away from these planets with life as possible... Let's find some areas where life is almost non-existent to fight...
If King hadn't possessed extremely precise energy control just now, those soldiers would have disintegrated along with the warships the moment the golden light rippled.
Saitama wiped his face, casually flicking away the bloodstains; in the blink of an eye, all his injuries were healed, leaving only his strength, which had increased once again.
There weren't many words between the two, only the craving for the thrill of battle.
But this time, Saitama and King both consciously changed the direction of their battle, heading towards areas where no life could be felt.
After advancing in battle for a few minutes like this, King suddenly noticed a faint, imperceptible attraction appearing on his body.
The moment he looked up, his pupils couldn't help but contract slightly.
In the star-studded sky, a bottomless darkness had actually appeared, and the surrounding light was being continuously torn and pulled into it.
This dark area was overall elliptical in shape, surrounded by light trapped in a ring that couldn't escape, with a massive attraction constantly erupting from the center of the dark region.
A Black Hole, a very special celestial phenomenon in the Universe, is generally formed by the condensation of extremely high-density stars after their death. It possesses extremely powerful tearing and gravitational forces, from which even light cannot escape.
Just then, Saitama's fist smashed over again; King didn't choose to dodge, but met the punch head-on with his face.
While his nose was bleeding, King finally seized the opportunity. Aiming towards the Black Hole, his fist, shining with golden light, landed heavily on the Bald Demon King's abdomen.
Boom! Boom! Boom!!
Saitama was instantly knocked back by the powerful impact attached to the fist, his figure flying backward in mid-air, crashing directly into a distance of 1,000 kilometers from the Black Hole.
"Eh? Is something pulling me?"
Sensing a tearing force coming from his body, Saitama looked back with a bewildered face, only to see the bottomless darkness firmly shrouding his vision.
The next second, an attraction massive to the extreme erupted. The Bald Demon King didn't even think about struggling and was sucked into the Black Hole just like that.
However, the Black Hole, capable of annihilating all matter and even capturing light, could do nothing against a shiny bald head.
Saitama was stuck in the center of the Black Hole, spinning repeatedly as the Black Hole rotated. He looked like he had fallen into a drum washing machine, his entire person having been blurred into afterimages.
He was suddenly amused and waved to King in the distance, signaling him to stop fighting for a moment:
"Oi! King, come quickly! This Black Hole is so much fun! It's just making me a bit dizzy from the spinning!"
A hint of surprise appeared in King's eyes, and he arrived in front of the Black Hole in a flash.
A terrifying attraction instantly covered his body, but it could do nothing against King, who had already reached such a level.
He reached his hand inside; an incredibly huge tearing force immediately appeared on his palm, but it couldn't tear apart his Physical Body, which was powerful to the extreme.
"I see. The density inside here is also quite high."
King toyed with a pair of Brass Knuckles made from compressed Neutron Stars, pointing and prodding at the Black Hole right in front of him.
