Chapter 181: Kumoko’s Victory!
Chapter 181: Kumoko's Victory!
Very soon, Tornado flew high enough.
At that moment, she saw the two people locked in battle.
One was Saitama, and the other was an unbelievably beautiful and adorable woman.
"Saitama!"
Tornado was utterly shocked.
Could Saitama really be this powerful?
Suddenly.
The battle between Saitama and Kumoko tore through Earth's atmosphere, with shockwaves even reaching the moon.
Moreover, one of the shockwaves rushed straight towards Tornado.
Even though Tornado used all her strength to form a telekinetic barrier to block the impact, she was still blown away.
In an instant, she was sent flying back to the ground.
"Big sister, are you okay?" Fubuki asked.
"I'm fine," Tornado shook her head, but inside, she was deeply astonished.
She knew that Saitama's strength was extraordinary, but she didn't expect it to be this terrifying. Even a single shockwave was beyond her ability to withstand. If she were to face Saitama in a battle, he could easily kill her with one punch.
Moreover, that woman's power was equally terrifying. She had no idea who she was.
"Big sister, what's happening up there?" Fubuki asked curiously.
"Two people are fighting," Tornado replied.
"Two people? Who are they?"
Fubuki was very curious.
Tornado took a deep breath and said, "It's that guy Saitama and an unfamiliar woman."
"What? Saitama!"
Fubuki was equally astonished.
Soon, many others also learned that Saitama was one of the people fighting in the sky, and immediately, Saitama's strength was exposed.
Of course, many hoped that Saitama would win. After all, they didn't know who the other woman was—she could very well be an enemy!
"Sensei, you have to win!" Genos murmured.
High above in the sky, near space.
Kumoko and Saitama were locked in fierce combat. Saitama had already unleashed his full strength, with each punch shattering the void, but he still couldn't defeat Kumoko.
Meanwhile, Kumoko's eight evil eyes continuously activated various skills to counter Saitama.
However, Saitama's speed was incredible, and he managed to dodge many of Kumoko's attacks.
Suddenly.
Kumoko used her weapon—her Vibranium Spider Silk.
Thwip!
The Vibranium Spider Silk transformed into a dense web, enveloping Saitama.
Saitama recognized the unusual nature of the Vibranium Spider Silk, so he didn't dare let it entangle him.
He tried his best to dodge, but still got caught.
This was because Kumoko had simultaneously activated two powerful abilities: her Repulsion Eye and Static Eye, which directly affected Saitama, suppressing him completely for a moment, preventing him from dodging the Vibranium Spider Silk.
The Vibranium Spider Silk was now a supreme treasure, making it impossible for Saitama to break free.
In an instant, Saitama was bound by the Vibranium Spider Silk.
"Break!"
Saitama tried with all his strength to free himself, but it was of no use.
He knew he had lost.
This was the first time he had ever lost since breaking his limiter.
In the past, one punch was all he ever needed to defeat his enemies. If one punch wasn't enough, then two would do.
But now, this mysterious woman had pushed him to his limits, and he still couldn't win. Her power was too terrifying.
"I've lost," Saitama admitted.
At that moment, the task card indicated that Kumoko had completed her mission.
"As expected, this Saitama is the strongest in this world. Master is truly amazing—he knew Saitama was the strongest even without coming to this world!" Kumoko was filled with admiration for her master.
Having completed her mission, Kumoko had no intention of killing Saitama.
She waved her hand, retrieving the Vibranium Spider Silk.
"Farewell!"
Kumoko then returned to the Ninja World.
Saitama, staring at the now-vanished Kumoko, was left in utter confusion and disbelief.
What kind of weirdo beats him and then just disappears?
"Strange. How did she leave? And why couldn't I sense where she went?"
But Saitama was certain that she wasn't from Earth. Perhaps she was like Boros, an overlord from somewhere else in the universe.
Golden List Livestream.
[Kakashi: That Saitama's power was terrifying. Among Immortal Path level experts, he must be absolutely monstrous. Any Six Paths-level individual wouldn't be able to withstand one punch from him—they'd surely die.]
[Uchiha Madara: Indeed, Saitama is incredibly terrifying. I wouldn't be able to block one of his punches. If not for his limited fighting style, he might not have lost to Kumoko.]
[Tsunade: The main thing is that Kumoko's weapon was too powerful, while Saitama didn't have any special weapons, which is why he suffered.]
[Senju Hashirama: This world is really powerful. If not for the Golden List, our world would definitely lose against the experts of their world!]
Soon, Kumoko's reward appeared.
In the image, a reward item appeared—it was a fruit.
[Divine Evolution Fruit: Can evolve bloodlines and physique, and also has an evolutionary effect on divine beasts.]
"Divine Evolution Fruit, not a bad reward. It'll definitely be useful to me!"
Kumoko was extremely pleased.
Without hesitation, she extracted the Divine Evolution Fruit.
In an instant, the scarlet Divine Evolution Fruit appeared in Kumoko's hand. She promptly swallowed it whole.
Soon, her body and bloodline began evolving.
One could imagine that after this evolution, even if the improvement wasn't drastic, her strength would definitely increase significantly.
"Next up is the third-place reward from the Potential List. I hope the reward won't be disappointing!"
Rongrong thought to herself.
Soon, the third-place reward from the Potential List was announced.
Two reward items appeared in the image.
The first reward item was a Fourth-Rank Golden Pill.
To Rongrong, the Fourth-Rank Golden Pill wasn't all that impressive, so she wasn't very interested.
The second reward item was a Nascent Soul Golden Pill.
[Nascent Soul Golden Pill: An upgraded version of the Soul Golden Pill, capable of enhancing the strength of a celestial being's soul.]
"The Nascent Soul Golden Pill can strengthen my soul. A strong soul will naturally enhance my mental power. For me, the Nascent Soul Golden Pill is much better than the Fourth-Rank Golden Pill."
After thinking it over, Rongrong decided to choose the Nascent Soul Golden Pill.
Whoosh!
Rongrong extracted the Nascent Soul Golden Pill and immediately swallowed it, refining its power.
Not long after, the fourth-place reward from the Potential List was revealed.
This position belonged to the Fox spirit Yaya.
Soon, two reward items appeared in the image.
The first reward item was an ice crystal.
[Extreme Cold Ice Crystal: Can enhance the cultivation speed of ice-type practitioners, increase ice-related abilities, and even be used to forge weapons.]
The second reward item was a bottle of milky-white substance.
[Hundred-Thousand-Year Stalactite: Can enhance a celestial being's cultivation and improve their physique.]
Yaya pondered for a moment before ultimately choosing the Hundred-Thousand-Year Stalactite, as she had already obtained many items similar to the Extreme Cold Ice Crystal, which might not benefit her much.
Therefore, she chose the reward she had never received before—the Hundred-Thousand-Year Stalactite, which might have better effects.
With that, Yaya extracted the Hundred-Thousand-Year Stalactite.
