Chapter 105: Determined by Various Factors
Although Sonic wasn't overly sensitive about whether he was male or female—believing that any gender could be a good ninja—he had been a boy for many years. He and his "little brother" had known each other since birth. To receive the sudden news that his "brother" was dead...
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
Screams of terror filled the cell. Sonic had never felt such humiliation. His eyes instantly filled with bloodshot veins.
Where is my brother?! I can't feel his presence anymore! NO!!!
What broke Sonic was this: if he had simply transformed from male to female, he could barely accept it.
The problem was, Sonic had not only lost his male dignity but also lacked female characteristics. He was now a freak—neither man nor woman.
Seeing his beloved little darling in such pain, a flicker of heartache crossed Puri-Puri Prisoner's tender eyes. He strode forward.
By the time the grieving Sonic realized what was happening, it was too late. A thick wave of masculine scent hit him in the face.
In an instant, Sonic felt like his face was being pricked by countless steel needles. Intense crushing pressure came from all sides, and the stiff chest hair stabbing his face almost suffocated him.
Puri-Puri Prisoner spoke, his tone filled with heartache and pity:
"It's okay, darling...
"Although your current form is no longer my preferred type, I will still love you. I won't let you feel cold. After all, my love for every little darling is deep."
Hearing these words, Sonic, already suffocating from the passionate hug, nearly passed out from rage.
Who the hell wants your love?! You damn muscle bro! Let go of me! Why must I suffer this ultimate humiliation?!
But these words could only remain in his mind. Sonic's mouth was blocked, and his entire face was buried in powerful pectoral muscles. He couldn't breathe.
This passionate hug lasted for over two minutes. During this time, Puri-Puri Prisoner constantly expounded on his philosophy of love, ceaselessly expressing his deep affection for his little darlings.
"Phew~ Finally finished. Now you know how passionate my love for you is, darling. Eh?! Darling, what's wrong?!"
Puri-Puri Prisoner released his arms, looking panicked at Sonic, whose eyes had rolled back and was foaming at the mouth.
"Oh no! I was so moved that I forgot you couldn't breathe in my Angel Hug! I must make up for my mistake!"
Puri-Puri Prisoner carefully laid the unconscious Sonic on the cold, damp prison floor. Then, he leaned down, his chiseled muscles jumping with his movements.
"Mwah~~~"
Puri-Puri Prisoner puckered his thick, sexy red lips. His stubbly chin moved closer and closer to Sonic's fair, delicate face.
Yes, his remedy was to use a love-filled CPR to wake up his unconscious darling.
Just as their lips were about to touch, Sonic frowned as if sensing danger and opened his eyes in confusion.
The moment he opened them, a giant pair of sexy red lips filled his entire field of vision.
"AAAAAHHHHHHHHHH!! DON'T COME NEAR ME!!"
Just regaining consciousness, Sonic's mental state collapsed again.
In this moment, Sonic loathed not only the muscle-gay Puri-Puri Prisoner in front of him but also the Bald Demon Saitama and King.
The former brought him unprecedented humiliation, and the latter two were guilty of the heinous crime of confiscating his male qualification certificate.
FCK!*
Watching Puri-Puri Prisoner leaning closer, despair filled Sonic's eyes. The painful memories of the past few days resurfaced.
"Gah! Don't come near me! You damn gay!!"
"Oh~ Flirting by playing hard to get? You really understand me~ As expected of my little darling~"
........
Three Days Later.
City Z remained bustling and lively. Even though this was one of the cities with the highest frequency of monster appearances, people didn't feel much fear.
Only because two extremely popular S-Class heroes were stationed in this city.
In the eyes of the public, no matter how powerful a monster descended upon this city, it would be easily resolved by these two.
S-Class Rank 5: The man known as the Strongest on Earth, King. He possessed countless legendary achievements and was hailed as the hidden S-Class Rank 1.
S-Class Rank 10: One Punch Man. The fastest-promoted S-Class hero since the Association's founding. It was said he killed any enemy in one punch, and his iconic bald head was admired by countless fans.
It is worth noting that after the recent Boros invasion, the Hero Association witnessed Saitama one-shotting Melzargard's clone and decided to promote him again.
As for why King only moved up one rank... the reason was simple.
The higher-ups of the Hero Association acknowledged that King had defeated the leader of the alien fleet during the invasion.
His popularity was almost number one in the Association, only slightly behind Sweet Mask (A-Class Rank 1), making him a national idol.
However, the titles of the top four S-Class heroes weren't just symbols of strength; they represented certain interests and connections.
S-Class Rank 1: Blast. His position was unshakable. Even most executives didn't know why a hero missing for two years was ranked first.
S-Class Rank 2: Tatsumaki. She was the model worker since the Association's founding, handling various powerful monster disasters daily. Her appearance rate among the public was the highest. Given her hard work and high kill count, her rank was well-deserved.
S-Class Rank 3: Bang. He was special. Not only because of his strength and excellent record, but also because he was a martial arts grandmaster renowned throughout the martial arts world. He alone represented the support of the martial arts community.
S-Class Rank 4: Atomic Samurai. As the premier swordsman, his strength justified his rank, but he also represented the Council of Swordsmasters behind him.
Therefore, in the eyes of the Hero Association executives, based solely on contribution and displayed strength, ranking King at fifth place was appropriate.
After all, from the beginning, the Hero Association rankings weren't determined purely by strength, but by a combination of contribution, popularity, and various other factors.
