Saitama looked across the devastated battlefield, his expression becoming increasingly serious.
"Hey!" he shouted toward the Moon. "Where did you take Sol? Bring him back!"
God's Avatar finally showed a faint reaction. Its withered head slowly turned toward Saitama.
Then it raised a finger and lightly tapped forward.
The air around Saitama instantly solidified.
Space itself became tangible, compressing around him from every direction like invisible walls.
"Sensei!" Genos shouted.
Saitama frowned and pushed outward with both arms.
Crack!
The spatial confinement shattered like broken glass under sheer force.
He jumped backward to safer ground, the soles of his shoes partially melted from the pressure.
Bending his knees slightly, Saitama stomped the ground hard enough to split the earth beneath him.
Boom!
He shot into the sky like a cannon shell, charging directly toward the Moon.
"Sensei!" Genos prepared to follow, but Blast stopped him.
"Let him go," Blast said calmly behind his mask. "Interfering now would only get in his way."
Everyone on the battlefield watched silently as Saitama tore through the atmosphere at a speed beyond comprehension.
God's Avatar remained motionless as it observed Saitama approaching. Its withered arm slowly rose again.
The moment Saitama neared the Moon's orbit, his speed suddenly dropped.
It felt as if he had fallen into invisible quicksand.
"Time itself is slowing him down?" Child Emperor exclaimed while observing through a high-powered scope.
Saitama forced his fist forward.
Everywhere his punch passed, the distorted flow of time returned to normal. However, the closer he got to God's Avatar, the heavier the resistance became.
God's Avatar casually waved its hand.
Saitama's momentum stopped instantly.
Then the force reversed violently.
Boom!
Saitama was launched back toward Earth at terrifying speed before crashing into the battlefield and forming a massive crater.
"Sensei!"
Genos rushed over immediately.
Dust filled the air before Saitama casually stood up and brushed dirt from his costume.
"I'm fine, I'm fine," he said. "Just caught me off guard."
He looked back toward the Moon, his brows tightening.
"Getting close to that thing is annoying."
For the first time, God's Avatar appeared mildly surprised that Saitama endured the attack so easily.
Still, its detached indifference remained unchanged.
Gouketsu roared as his muscles expanded to their limit.
"For Lord Sol!"
He launched himself skyward toward God's Avatar.
Elder Centipede burst from underground again, attacking from another direction.
Black Sperm split into countless clones that surged upward like a black ocean.
Hellfire Flame and Gale Wind fused their powers into a massive firestorm.
Gums spat corrosive acid toward the sky.
Overgrown Rover unleashed relentless energy beams.
Ugly President jumped high with monstrous force.
Orochi transformed into a gigantic serpent and charged toward the Moon.
At nearly the same moment, every Monster executive unleashed their strongest attacks together.
The Heroes moved as well.
"I don't care what this thing is anymore," Sitch ordered from the command center. "Our objective is the same. All units, attack together!"
Tatsumaki transformed her psychic barrier into pure offense, green psychic energy piercing upward like a giant spear.
Bang and Atomic Samurai leaped forward simultaneously, Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist and Atomic Slash intertwining together.
Flash Flash became a streak of light.
Superalloy Darkshine used his body as a living weapon.
Tanktop Master ripped apart a massive chunk of concrete and hurled it skyward.
High above the battlefield, Blast continuously shifted through space, repeatedly using his abilities to create openings for everyone's attacks.
Genos concentrated every remaining ounce of power into his arms.
"Incineration Cannon, Full Power!"
At the same time, Saitama launched himself upward again.
This time, he was faster.
Stronger.
More serious.
His fist tightened as his gaze sharpened completely.
Facing attacks from every direction, God's Avatar finally reacted differently.
Its withered arms slowly spread outward.
An invisible force field expanded from its body.
The moment attacks entered the field, they began slowing down, twisting unnaturally before dissolving into nothingness.
Every combined assault from both Heroes and Monsters was neutralized effortlessly.
But at that exact moment, Saitama broke through the force field.
He appeared directly before God's Avatar.
"Serious Series..."
Saitama pulled back his fist.
"Serious Punch!"
Boom!!!
The punch crashed directly into God's Avatar's chest.
Time itself seemed to freeze.
Then an earth-shaking roar exploded across space.
The Moon's surface ruptured as a gigantic crater spread outward from the impact point. Dust engulfed the lunar surface entirely.
Everyone below held their breath.
"Did it work?"
The dust slowly cleared.
Then the battlefield fell silent.
God's Avatar still stood there completely unharmed.
Its withered hand was raised forward, effortlessly blocking Saitama's full-power punch with a single palm.
Saitama's fist stopped cold before it.
It could not move forward even a single millimeter.
"What...?"
Real shock finally appeared on Saitama's face.
God's Avatar's palm emitted a faint glow.
An overwhelming force exploded outward instantly.
Boom!
Saitama was blasted back toward Earth even faster than before.
He crashed down like a meteor.
The impact shook the planet violently as massive cracks spread across several kilometers of land.
"Sensei!"
Genos sprinted toward the impact zone.
Amid the smoke and debris, Saitama slowly stood back up.
For the first time, a thin line of blood trickled from the corner of his mouth.
He wiped it away silently and stared at the blood on his hand.
His expression became completely serious.
"You're seriously tough," he muttered.
Yet instead of fear, the fighting spirit in his eyes only intensified.
On the Moon, God's Avatar slowly lowered its hand before scanning the battlefield once more.
Then it made a simple motion.
Its hands slowly came together.
At that moment, Earth's atmosphere began fluctuating violently.
Natural disasters erupted across the planet simultaneously.
Massive hurricanes formed across the oceans.
Tsunamis swallowed coastlines.
Earthquakes split apart entire regions.
Volcanoes erupted without warning.
Above the battlefield itself, a gigantic energy vortex formed in the sky.
Different colored lightning flashed wildly within it, releasing a terrifying aura of destruction.
Drive Knight's mechanical voice echoed across the battlefield like a death sentence.
"It's attempting planetary destruction."
A heavy silence followed.
Heroes and Monsters, enemies who had fought each other countless times, now stood united by the same terrifying reality.
Compared to the being above them, they were all equally powerless.
