Chapter 561: Hold on to Hope or Despair
Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE。 infoYoshida answered Makoto Takahashi's question of "Do humans need heroes?" in the affirmative......
Although Makoto Takahashi did not say it explicitly, Yoshida could see that Makoto Takahashi was quite dissatisfied with his answer...... Even the contempt in his eyes was so undisguised!
However, Makoto Takahashi didn't explain much, and even the previous taunt that could cause Yoshida to deal critical damage didn't appear...... Makoto Takahashi didn't even say a word, just a thick stack of manga manuscripts and stuffed it into Yoshida's hands!
"Is this a comic manuscript for the latest episode of the manga "One Punch Man"?" Yoshida looked at the cartoon manuscript in his hand, and then looked at Makoto Takahashi's playful expression, and then understood the thoughts of a certain secondary cartoonist......
Answer...... It's in the comic sketch of this episode!
A huge meteorite is about to fall to Earth...... This is the beginning of the manga "One Punch Man" in Yoshida's hand!
Should this be a gift from the universe, or should it be said to be a reversal impulse from the world consciousness that wants to destroy humanity?
When the [Hero Association] observed the meteorite and deduced the location of its fall, it began to arrange for the evacuation of the residents living in the destination of the meteorite...... Although the evacuation order has been issued, whether it is the panicked humans in the city or some observers in the [Hero Association], they have already understood that it is too late!
The place where the huge meteorite block landed was the city Z where Saitama sensei lived!
Even though the [Hero Association] issued an order for heroes to summon, it is hoped that the superpowers who are heroes will be able to destroy ...... No, it's even just the luxury of hoping that the heroes can block the fall of the meteorite a little bit and buy more time for the humans who have escaped, but at this point in time when Z City is about to be destroyed, which hero can stand up at such a critical moment to resist the natural disasters that humans can't resist at all?
Or rather...... In the situation of knowing that it is certain to die, who will be stupid to stay?
As the time for the meteorite to fall became shorter and shorter, the humans who escaped in a hurry gradually fell into despair...... After all, people with a little common sense know that after the meteorite falls, the powerful impact will destroy Z City in an instant, and at the same time, the impact aftermath formed by the impact of the meteorite and Z City will even destroy several nearby cities together!
Despair began to spread among human beings, and countless human beings who found it inevitable began to pray silently, hoping that at this moment, a hero who could reverse the crisis can appear, and one who appeared at such a critical moment to complete the impossible task of [shooting down the falling meteorite] in a way that turned the tide, and created an existence called [Miracle]!
And the so-called [hero] na...... Isn't it just the existence that stands up at a critical moment to crush despair and bring hope?
Just got ...... No, it should be said that Genos, who had just upgraded his new equipment, did not ignore the summoning order of the [Hero Association] like other [heroes], but rushed to Z City, where the meteorite was about to land, as soon as possible!
There are three heroes who appear at the same time as Genos, and they are all S-level existences in the [Hero Association]! However, unfortunately, even if they are the three top combat heroes belonging to the S-level in the [Hero Association], they still can't stop the meteorite from falling......
After manipulating the robot to bombard the meteorite with a missile, the metal knight quickly left the scene after discovering that the meteorite could not be destroyed......
Although the old man [Silver Fang] Banggu who played soy sauce had the ability to protect himself, he could not prevent the meteorite from falling......
And Genos...... After seeing the two colleagues give up, they did not lose heart, but made a final effort! An energy beam similar to the signature move [Turtle School Qigong] in the manga "Dragon Ball" was sent out from Genos's hand, aiming directly at the huge meteorite falling from the sky......
“…… Use this blow now and give all my strength!"
Hoarse screams, full energy output with all your might...... In order not to expect to smash the meteorite, at least it can delay a little!
However, even if the scene created by Genos is quite exaggerated, in the face of such a natural disaster, it can still only be regarded as a desperate struggle of human beings...... Genos, who ran out of energy, let alone destroyed the meteorite, and even delayed the meteorite's fall......
"Nine seconds left...... Run away, Mr. Bangu!" Faced with his own powerlessness and impending despair, Genos gave up and accepted his fate, but he did not forget to remind another hero who had been playing soy sauce just now!
"Old man, this guy will be handed over to you!" Just when Genos was already desperate, a bald man in a strange uniform suddenly appeared!
"You, who are you?"
"I'm a ...... Heroes of interest!"
As the words fell, Saitama sensei half-bent down, and after a brief accumulation of strength, he jumped upward...... And the roof of the house, which is used as a lever, also appeared at the moment when Saitama sensei jumped, and there were large cracks!
"Don't fall ......" Saitama sensei, who flew towards the meteorite, raised his right fist, stared at the huge meteorite, and gritted his teeth and roared, "My ...... in the city!"
And then......
Just as I thought that the plot routine after Saitama Sensei appeared on the stage, the huge meteorite was shattered by a punch, and a [Bald Saitama Special Edition] meteor shower was formed in the sky above Z City, which was originally to be destroyed!
Of course, the fragments that were shattered by the meteorite by Saitama Sensei and scattered in all directions still brought a catastrophic blow to Z City......
"Although I had already guessed the development of the plot before, when I actually watched it, I found that it was beyond imagination......" Yoshida, who was still reminiscing about the power of Saitama-sensei's punch just now, was about to continue reading the manga manuscript, but found that Makoto Takahashi reached out and pressed the manga manuscript...... So Yoshida, who was in a hurry to continue observing the manga draft, couldn't help but ask, "By the way, what are you doing, Ah Cheng, don't stop me from reading it!"
"Tsk, it seems that you haven't completed the task assigned to you before!" Looking at Yoshida's blank look, Takahashi Makoto pursed his lips unhappily, frowned and complained, "If you have already read the manga manuscript of the [original version], you should already know the next plot ......"
"Uh...... I'm sorry, Makoto!" Yoshida really didn't finish reading the magical [original version] before, so at the moment when it was exposed by Makoto Takahashi, a responsible editor apologized very sincerely...... In other words, even if he can find a hundred excuses to deny it, Yoshida also thinks that a certain secondary and second manga artist has about a hundred and one ways to admit it, so at this time, it is better to apologize sincerely!
"Hey, is this a sincere apology? Give me a million seppuku seppuku, my family cat!" But even if he apologizes sincerely, Takahashi's attitude today is the same as always...... It's terrible!
"Seppuku...... Hey, people will die once they cut their stomachs!" Yoshida complained weakly, a flattering smile appeared on his face, and he said, "Speaking of Ah Cheng, other things will be discussed later...... How about letting me read the cartoon of this first?"
"My family is a cat, before that......" Makoto Takahashi withdrew his hand that was pressed on the manga manuscript and asked Yoshida the previous question again, "Humans, do you need heroes?"
"Of course!" Looking at the manga manuscript in his hand, Yoshida was much more confident when he replied this time!" "It is precisely because of heroes like Genos and Saitama Sensei that the humans of Z City will avoid the fate of being destroyed by meteorites...... Speaking of which, Cheng, your own comics have already given a good answer, so why do you have to confirm it with me again and again?
"There really wasn't a plan this time...... It's just an anticipation of something interesting, that's all!" Makoto Takahashi said as he squinted at Yoshida!
“…… Is it an infinite loop answer to [Interesting Things & No Plan]?" Yoshida, who was already familiar with the routine of a certain middle school second manga artist, frowned and looked at Makoto Takahashi, very wise that he didn't ask Makoto Takahashi stupid questions like "What does interesting things mean]!
"Eh, my family is a cat, even if you don't believe me, you should believe the one who believes in me!" Takahashi Makoto deliberately used this tongue-twisting answer to interfere with Yoshida's thinking, "...... Anyway, I'm just looking forward to it!"
"By the way, what are you expecting?" Yoshida began to feel a little stunned......
I always feel that once Makoto Takahashi looks at him with a weird smile on his face, the next time is when he is pitted!
"Hmm, I'm just looking forward to what kind of look my dependents will show after you read the comic manuscript of this sentence again...... If you reveal a little bit of information, that's probably it!" Makoto Takahashi said with squinting eyes......
"Hmm, a manga draft of this story?" Yoshida suddenly had a feeling that I was going to be pitted again......
"Sa, my dependents, go on, didn't you want to wait to observe the manga manuscript before?" Seeing that Yoshida began to hesitate, a certain middle school cartoonist began to [belly black の fanning the flames], "You hesitate like this...... As the editor in charge, the soul is crying! Sa, hurry up and continue to observe! Hurry up!"
This time it will definitely not be a delusion...... Yoshida can pat his chest and touch his conscience to assure that the remaining comic manuscripts in his hand that have not been read yet, and the unfinished plot is definitely pitted!
This is a strong sense of déjà vu like an instigator...... Ahh
My dependents are cats, and you're going to be ...... after reading the rest of the comics.
will still be able to stick to the original intention...... Do you insist that the answer "Humanity Needs Heroes"?
Or is it ...... Will you fall into the whirlpool of contradictions and entanglements, and spend the rest of your life struggling and wandering in the cruelty and darkness called [reality]?
Hold on to hope or despair?
My dependents are cats, your choice ......
That's the fun stuff I'm really looking forward to!
