mierda, i knew it will happen

 

[AtomicSekiro]

That’s still a strength increase. Dude went from a normal human to dragon lvl threat.

Oh yeah that too. Wonder how he knew about that. Though stuff like that does happen in other series as well so I won’t question it that much.

Homeless Emperor was explicitly STILL JUST A DUDE, with regular dude strength. “Dragon lvl” does not say “stat lvl”

Disaster levels at a baseline aren’t reliable and don’t tell stats. Black Sperm is in the same disaster level as that one weird banana ice monster from that extra chapter.

 

[AtomicSekiro]

So after this re draw Boros might finally have some competition or no

Boros has had competition for years.

 

[Coomandar]

something tells me that tatsumaki is about to join the fight

 

[Pepsiman25th]

SO, if he had to calculate Voids dimension blade, what would it be?

if it was a durability negation attack, nothing more than island level

Void being all hyped up only for him to be Solo'd by Fuhrer Ugly

Nah, spanish fan TL made it apparent that Saitama isn't saying Tatsumaki is coming but rather that the damage Empty Void provoked is similar to Tatsumaki's.

The english fan TL also changed the translation a bit as well...

"That looks like Tatsumaki's..." instead of "That looks like Tatsumaki..."

 

[AtomicSekiro]

I don’t think Saitama is comparing power, he couldn’t care less about stuff like that. He’s just making a connection that Void is causing a similar sized mess in the exact same place Tatsumaki did. “That looks like Tatsumaki’s doing; the home wrecker!” type of vibe, not “wow, this ninja is as strong as Tatsumaki!” vibe.

 

[Recon1511]

I didn't say that.

 

[Coomandar]

tatsumaki is joining the fight
take the details, small references


a hax battle, and such a big sized spatial distortion would be easily detected by tatsumaki

 

[darkphantom9805]

statuemaki isn’t joining the fight blast would say the same thing he said to flashy to her

 

[Phoenks]

This could also be an opportunity for Blast to realize Flashy/Sonic are actually stronger than expected though. I could honestly see some wildness happening here with the power creep going on.

 

[AtomicSekiro]

Tatsumaki can detect spatial/dimensional warping so I imagine she’s in another city, senses Blast AT HQ and is:

”What the **** Blast?! Missing for years then the two times you’ve come back you’ve avoided me!”

Or

”Dimensional warping? Is that Blast?? Wait, a second warp, is that TWO Blasts?! IS THAT BLAST STRONGER THAN BLAST?!”

 

[AtomicSekiro]

- Blast apparently lmaostatues Flashy Flash an arc ago.

- 1 Arc later. Flashy Flash MIGHT be relevant against someone Blast considers a threat.

What are they putting in the water? Offscreen training really gets work done…

one punch man’s upgrades has always been that strange

 

[Engine]

FF upgrades from training is not that noticeable even in the pre retconned chapters.
Let's be honest here, FF is way out of Empty Void's league. The only relevant characters are in right now is Saitama, Blast and Tatsumaki. Seems that the power scale got too high that other S Class are like NPC now.

 

[Recon1511]

I disagree with the notion that lacking power in comparison to literal God level threats means they are irrelevant not only power wise but character wise.

 

[RinneItachi]

I want empty void to keep his mind manip and use it against Saitama without achieving anything, that way Saitama would finally obtain resistance to mind manip

I imagine them "working" as-in Saitama sees the illusions, then he casually swipes them away like they're smoke.

 

[RinneItachi]

Also I doubt Tats will be getting involved. The last mini-arc was about her and Fubuki she won't be a relevant character back-to-back that's not how ONE does things. She might make an appearance in this arc but not get overly involved. This arc is about the ninja's first and foremost.

Anyways I'm predicting that we'll get caught up more quickly from here. Next chapter would be Sonic and Flashy Flash meeting and fighting, then the HNP, then EV gets involved. I feel like that will get a little sped up, or if not the quality will be better, either way is fine but after this chapter I'm way more hyped for EV. I'm guessing that EV will actually have Blast on the losing end and maybe even come close to high-diffing him, but Saitama will get involved towards the end and finish the battle, not killing him but simply beating him so that Blast can try to retrieve and revert him into a human. But I'm betting that when he's about to retrieve Empty Void, God will intervene and kill him like he's done to other hosts.

Blast Vs. EV is aboutta be CRAZY.

 

[Tural2004]

Now I think about it but if EV can communicate with God directly, should he not know about Saitama?

 

[darkphantom9805]

No because god has no reason to tell him about saitama

 

[AtomicSekiro]

If Blast in the future timeline could react to serious Garou and Saitama, make a portal to contain them before they can punch eachother, yet empty void can still shock Blast and Blast believes he will be hard to fight, would that put Void on the level of that Saitama and Garou?

 

[RinneItachi]

Now I think about it but if EV can communicate with God directly, should he not know about Saitama?

Well we don't know what God's view of Saitama even is and I honestly doubt he just "talks" to his vessels casually. He only talks to them to give them power and a mission and then talks to them when their usefulness is over, from what we've seen.

 

[RinneItachi]

If Blast in the future timeline could react to serious Garou and Saitama, make a portal to contain them before they can punch eachother, yet empty void can still shock Blast and Blast believes he will be hard to fight, would that put Void on the level of that Saitama and Garou?

By default it would put him at a level that he can keep up with them for sure. Though Saitama might have gotten a lot faster since then.

 

[Ourosboros]

SO, if he had to calculate Voids dimension blade, what would it be?

Using pulverization you'd get island to large-island level results. If you used KE it might be something absurd like country level

If Blast in the future timeline could react to serious Garou and Saitama, make a portal to contain them before they can punch eachother, yet empty void can still shock Blast and Blast believes he will be hard to fight, would that put Void on the level of that Saitama and Garou?

Empty Void will probably be on Blast's level, making him at least comparable to Gamma Ray Burst Garou and normal punch Saitama but I wouldn't take his surprise attack as proof of that. Blast was shocked but he wasn't visibly struggling to teleport the Hero Association or anything. If they fight and are even, then yes Empty Void would downscale from the serious punch^2 just like Blast

 

[darkphantom9805]

I want to know when next chapter is they left it off on such a cliffhanger

 

[Ourosboros]

I'd bet two weeks

 

[RinneItachi]

Two weeks probably.

 

[JustANormalPerson01]

Tbh the only thing I hate about this chapter is the egocentrism of FF. He got speedblitzed by Blast yet thought he could defeat God

 

[darkphantom9805]

Nah flashy definitely got mixed feelings after he seen void attack

 

[Nullflowerblush]

Is Murata changing the story again?

 

[Emerald]

Both ONE and Murata, yea

 

[Phsccarvalho]

Is Murata changing the story again?

I've never seen a manga with so many redraws.

 

[Coomandar]

I've never seen a manga with so many redraws.

yeah, looks like an amateur is writing

 

[Phsccarvalho]

yeah, looks like an amateur is writing

But the great Master ONE is a manga genius who always knows what he is doing and only creates works of art.

It is definitely Murata who is redraw the manga so many times and interfering with the genius of ONE that was demonstrated in the OPM webcomic.

(text contains irony and is clearly mocking ONE fanboys)

 

[Ourosboros]

I don't know guys, us Murata conspiracist stocks are only rising with these changes. Glad to see the chibi drawings get cut and the silliness toned down

 

[Reiner04]

So new chptr will be redraw again?
