Piccolo the Great Demon King (81k)
Chapter 491 Demon King Piccolo (8.1k)
In Z city now, there are nearly 10,000 combat phantoms distributed in all directions and streets to protect the people, fight criminals, kill weirdos, rescue and provide disaster relief. Each phantom has the ability to compete with the A-level heroes of the Hero Association. The strength of the hero, all virtual entities are determined by the same Controlled by an artificial intelligence JUMP, it can arrive at the scene of any accident within half a minute and complete tasks such as rescuing people, catching criminals, and rescuing residents' property. The safety of Z City is obvious to all, and even reporters with ulterior motives will find it difficult to find even half-black people. material.
Enemies and monsters who threaten peace will be killed without mercy. Human criminals will be handed over to the government for trial and punished by criminal law as soon as they are caught.
Not only the pseudo-mobiles for combat, he also created a large number of pseudo-mobiles for people's livelihood to enhance the public service capabilities of Z City and ensure the livability of the city, such as cleaning streets, pruning greenery, maintaining public facilities, etc. The work is all carried out by civilian actors, and no human participation is required from the beginning.
In addition, Roy also ordered the wealthy businessmen of the alliance to carry out a large number of social services, provide care for the childless elderly, purchase funds for orphanages, reduce medical expenses, and lower the threshold for home purchase... The quality of life of people in this city is far better than in other cities. Ten times or a hundred times.
This new Z city was built by Roy according to his own ideals, and he personally took care of every aspect.
The people living here are his ideal state.
Even though it's just the tip of the iceberg, it's far from perfect.
"But I always feel like something is wrong..."
Roy looked down at the city in front of him and murmured thoughtfully.
Obviously the people here live a good life, but he always feels that something is wrong.
It's not that there's anything wrong with the city itself, but that the shape of the city seems to be somewhat different from his ideal state.
Something happened that made him so unhappy that malice spread in his heart, and he wished he could wipe the city off the face of the earth and start all over again.
"Forget it. In essence, building this new Z city is just a social experiment on my part. After all, it is just a trial project. It is human nature to have differences with the ideal situation."
Roy shook his head and gave up thinking about the problem.
This New Z City is just the tip of the iceberg of his ideal future blueprint. It is a graffiti based on his own ideals. It cannot be compared with a real work of art.
Roy turned around, disappeared from the floor-to-ceiling window, returned to the living room, and sat down on the sofa.
"Jarvis, is there something unusual about the recent Heroes Association?"
"Yes, sir."
A huge space window appeared on the wall of the living room, with endless reports appearing on it, and the calm and steady voice of artificial intelligence came from the wall speakers.
"Do you want to take a look?"
"Let's get something to drink first."
"Coffee? Hot tea? Boiled water?"
"No, I want an iced Coke."
The next moment, a phantom that looked like a girl with blond hair and twin tails and was wearing a maid outfit came to the living room with a glass of iced Coke and presented it to Roy.
"Tell me, what has the Hero Association done recently?"
"OK."
After receiving the exact instructions, the artificial intelligence immediately classified the reports into categories at an extremely fast speed.
"The Heroes Association has indeed changed a lot in the past six months. Affected by Shueisha and the phantom technology, the Heroes Association's living space has been greatly squeezed. Most of the low-level heroes can no longer work and have chosen to change careers. The public has hardly seen it anymore. When it comes to low-level heroes, according to statistics, more than 90% of grassroots hero activities have been replaced by Shueisha. Recently, people have even said that "the police are no longer needed, just leave all measures to maintain order to Shueisha."
"It should."
Roy took a sip of Coke and said nonchalantly.
Pseudomorph warriors do not only exist in Z City. Cities with Shueisha branches basically have a large number of Pseudomorphs installed. Although the number is not as high as that of Z City, they are more than enough to protect the people. In terms of low-end combat power, More than a hundred times stronger than the Heroes Association.
The current Shueisha, let alone a top-notch combat force, even has more than 100,000 pseudo-action warriors under its command. It is easy to overthrow the government and establish a new regime, but Roy is not that interested.
"There are people within the Hero Association who are very dissatisfied with Shueisha, so they bought a TV station to report Shueisha's dirty stuff."
The AI continued.
At the same time, the female reporter and her companions appeared on the wall. Their figures and what they did had been captured by a large number of cameras.
At the same time, there were several articles, all of which were written by TV stations in City B, accusing Shueisha of using robots to deprive ordinary people of their jobs, having too many cameras and infringing on privacy, etc. The content was so similar that it left people speechless.
"Let one of the wealthy businessmen below buy the TV station in City B and reward them with three years of rejuvenation. Then they can open these two people and the people who wrote those articles, and tell all other TV stations not to hire them, otherwise they will bear the consequences."
"I'll notify you right away."
The notification from the artificial intelligence butler was instantly sent to the consortium affiliated with the Anti-Moon Consortium Alliance. The wealthy businessmen immediately rushed to the B City TV station like sharks smelling blood.
"Still, it's a little strange."
Roy rubbed his chin, looking a little puzzled.
"Sponsors of the Hero Association, don't you know by now that I can help them rejuvenate?"
Within the Hero Association, the so-called high-level officials, such as the director of the second command room, are just high-level wage earners at best.
Those who truly control the Heroes Association are the sponsors who continue to send funds to the association.
Essentially the wealthy businessmen control everything.
People like Mark Yi would not even dare to fart if they faced the association's sponsors head-on.
But now, Roy's ability has been spread out. There are as many wealthy businessmen gathered under the alliance as stars. How many wealthy businessmen want to meet him but are not qualified. No matter which wealthy businessman wants to ask him to help improve his body, whether he is disabled or old, Old age, terminal illness, letting his brother grow five centimeters, etc., all problems can be solved by Roy.
The sponsors of the Hero Association still dare to go against him. Don't they know his abilities by now?
"According to the data, your ability has been widely spread among the wealthy businessmen. If there is a wealthy businessman who doesn't know it, then he does not meet the definition of a wealthy businessman."
"You really know how to talk."
Roy laughed.
"Of course the sponsors of the Hero Association are not little Karami who do not meet the definition of wealthy businessmen. So the question is, since they know my abilities and don't want to join me, they dare to offend me. Do they think they are too long-lived? "
"Perhaps, sir."
"Funny."
Roy chuckled and waved his hand.
"Give me a list of the sponsors of the Hero Association, and by the way, mark the ones that are not under my alliance."
The AI quickly came up with a list of Hero Association sponsors.
Arranged from top to bottom in order of investment amount, there are dozens.
But most of them are marked in red, and the words marked in red are followed by the note "have joined the Anti-Moon Consortium Alliance", indicating that they have abandoned the Hero Association and joined Shueisha.
But among them, the top five sponsors were all blue, and they all marked that they had not joined the alliance.
"This is really interesting. Are they all frivolous teenagers?"
"No, according to the information, they are all middle-aged and elderly people."
"This is more interesting."
Roy laughed immediately, with a deep ambiguity in his expression.
"They are all middle-aged and old people, but they are going against me who can help them rejuvenate. Are they all idiots?"
"Probabilistically, it's more likely that they're not idiots."
"Then why are they going against me?"
The artificial intelligence was silent.
It seems he didn't collect enough data.
Roy didn't speak, just thinking silently in his heart.
In this case, there were only two possibilities he could think of. One was that the top five sponsors were all idiots.
The other is - within the Hero Association, there are technologies that are comparable to his!
Because they had skills comparable to his, these five sponsors fought tooth and nail to protect the Heroes Association, even if they offended him.
No, maybe there is a third way, that is, being hypnotized?
It's not these sponsors who are against him, but someone hiding behind the scenes who is against him?
Considering that he was also a hypnosis enthusiast, Roy temporarily thought of the third possibility.
"No matter what, the current Heroes Association cannot become a thing."
Roy got up and left the sofa and gave the artificial intelligence a warning.
"But if you don't want to be careless, you should allocate some energy to keep an eye on the Heroes Association. If there is any abnormality, report it to me immediately."
"Sir, there is an anomaly in the Heroes Association right now."
The artificial intelligence spoke again, stopping Roy from leaving.
"What's abnormal?"
"There is a group within the Hero Association that scores heroes' performance and then controls the ranking of heroes."
"I've heard of it."
Roy nodded calmly.
Heroes in the Hero Association are ranked. For example, Shivering Tornado is ranked second in S-level, and Silver Fang Banggu is ranked third in S-level. This ranking exists not only in S-level, but also in A-level and B-level below. , also exists in C-level heroes.
There is a group within the Hero Association that scores the heroes' strength and achievements, and then controls the ranking of the heroes. For example, if an A-level hero defeats a ghost-level disaster, he can choose to be promoted to S-level. Of course, he will stay at the original level. Positions are also acceptable. This ranking is not mandatory and can arouse the heroes' sense of competition, so it cannot be said to be a bad system.
Because Shueisha only recruits elite heroes, the number of heroes is very small. The total number of heroes is only a few dozen. One team leader leads two team members to guard a city. The status between the team leader and the team leader, and between the team members is Equally, there is no ranking or scoring system.
"This group has incorporated protecting vampires into the hero scoring metric."
The artificial intelligence's language is not shocking but it is endlessly authentic.
"What did you say?"
Roy froze, his eyes showing surprise.
"Protecting vampires is included in the evaluation of heroes? Are you confused?"
"This is information on the Internet. I don't know if it is true or false at the moment."
The artificial intelligence continued: "However, there are indeed several heroes who, after protecting the existence of suspected vampires, have unreasonably increased their rankings despite their low performance, so this rumor may not be groundless."
"Do you think it's possible to this extent?"
"Not only that, the existence of those suspected vampires protected by the hero can be found in the government database. There are bank robbers, rapists, murderers... without exception, all are criminals, and they are incorrigible."
Now Roy was silent.
It is not impossible for heroes to protect criminals... from a humanitarian perspective. For example, if the vehicle transporting criminals is attacked by monsters, the hero arrives at the scene. It is not good to watch the monsters kill the criminals, so he can only save the criminals together.
It is understandable that the ranking has been improved.
However, the artificial intelligence said that the merits of these events are not high, but they have been unreasonably improved, which is more intriguing.
"There are also rumors of this kind among the people, saying that the Hero Association will protect vampires, even criminals, so today this bank robber said such a thing."
The bank robbery that just happened today appeared in the space window. The criminal, the man with a horn hat, Niuniu, came from another city. After being caught and threatened by the pseudo-JUMP, he said that the Hero Association would definitely save me.
Criminals can say such things, indicating that "Hero Association shelters vampires" has become a rumor among the people to a considerable extent.
Vampires... Is this related to Dio?
"Keep watching and collect relevant information."
"Okay, sir."
Roy walked out of the living room and returned to the room deep in the top floor.
Vampires have little to do with him, so don't worry about it for now.
There is a dark world passage here, and the other side is the underground of Fuyuki City. He usually returns to Fuyuki City and goes to the Magic City world for special training. Through the world passage, artificial intelligence can work in the five worlds of One Punch, Fuyuki, Magic City, Six Flowers, and Juhui. He was doing special training in Magic City before. The artificial intelligence told him that Bang was visiting, so he washed off his sweat and came out to greet him. Now he also plans to return to Magic City to continue training.
"Sir, an emergency has occurred, and a message for help has come from City X!"
At this time, the voice of the artificial intelligence butler sounded again, and this time there was a little tension in the voice.
"An unimaginably powerful monster has appeared in City X. Miss Red Ponytail, the garrison hero, requests to go to support him immediately... No, wait a minute, this monster suddenly appeared in the suburbs of City Z, and the air force has gone to meet him!"
"What's going on?"
Roy stopped and had a question mark on his forehead.
Wasn't City X attacked just now?
How come this monster appeared in City Z in the blink of an eye?
Can this monster teleport?
Even Orochi can't!
"I'll release the video immediately!"
The AI housekeeper quickly projected the video data from the front-line troops on the wall.
In the picture, a humanoid monster stood in the sky, waved his hand, and dozens of rays of light whizzed out, like a fixed-point attack, accurately hitting dozens of flying pseudo-bodies, blowing the pseudo-bodies to pieces and iron pieces flying everywhere.
"Wait, let me see what that monster looks like!"
Roy looked at the video data in front of him, and suddenly seemed to be hit by a huge shock, and gave orders one after another.
The picture quickly froze, and the appearance of the humanoid monster quickly jumped into Roy's eyes.
The monster looked only one person tall, and his body shape and facial features were almost the same as those of humans.
But he had green skin, two curved tentacles on his forehead, a bald head and pointed ears, and wore a dark blue martial arts uniform with the word "demon" printed on the chest. His old face was smiling wildly.
"That's--"
The moment he saw the appearance of the monster clearly, Roy's eyes widened immediately.
"Piccolo?!"
…………
A few minutes ago, City X.
A boy with short pink hair was walking on the streets of City X. When he saw the dessert shop on the side of the road, he paused and walked forward quickly.
"One pudding, thank you."
The boy did not open his mouth, but the cold voice appeared in the clerk's mind incredibly. The clerk did not find it strange and quickly packed a pudding and handed it to him.
The boy ate the pudding in small bites, and a light look of happiness gradually emerged on his calm face.
"Boom!"
Suddenly, a huge roar was heard, and flames shot up into the sky.
The pink-haired boy's face froze slightly, and his expression gradually became unfriendly.
He turned his head to look for the source of the explosion, and soon found a clue in the city center.
A little girl with red twin ponytails, wearing a strange combat uniform, was fighting a green-skinned monster.
But it was called a battle, and the little girl with red twin ponytails was no match for the green-skinned monster. The green-skinned monster casually emitted a light wave, blowing the little girl with red twin ponytails back and crashing through several buildings.
"... Is it true?"
The pink-haired boy saw the figure of the green-skinned monster, and the slight unhappiness on his face instantly turned into a deep shock.
"Isn't that the Great Demon King Piccolo in "Dragon Ball"? Why did he appear in this world?"
The Great Demon King Piccolo has come out, so are Son Goku and Vegeta real?
So the world in the comics is real?
"Oh no, Red Ponytail is no match for Piccolo."
The pink-haired boy looked at it from afar, his face expressionless, but a trace of worry flashed through his heart.
Red Ponytail should be like him, a time traveler from another world, with great strength. She was able to become an S-class hero when she was in the Hero Association. After joining Shueisha, the president of Shueisha personally met her and decided to directly promote her to the defender of a town. She has two subordinates who also jumped from the Hero Association. It is said that they are a very popular magic macho group among some people with quirks in the folk.
But Piccolo, no matter how you look at it, is beyond the scope of what Red Ponytail can handle!
In the distance, two magic macho men holding magic wands also jumped out to assist Red Ponytail, but Piccolo threw them away with a casual flick and fainted.
Red Ponytail barely stood up and rushed forward with a stubborn face, but was quickly beaten away again.
The pink-haired boy was silent for a while.
He stretched out his hand and pulled out the two strange hairpin-like devices on his head. His figure flashed suddenly and appeared in the center of the battlefield in the blink of an eye, waving his hand.
"What?"
Red Ponytail just got up from the ruins, but found nothing in front of him.
The figure of Piccolo disappeared without a trace.
On the other side.
Piccolo was also stunned.
In just a blink of an eye, he disappeared from the downtown and appeared in a wilderness.
"What's going on?"
He looked around, but found that there was no one around, not even a weed, and there was no other air around except himself.
He seemed to feel a breath approaching...Is it an illusion?
"How many years have I been sealed? How did this world change so much?"
Piccolo was full of doubts. He quickly took off and saw a huge city on the horizon in the distance. A cruel smile suddenly appeared on his face again, and he immediately used the flying technique to fly towards the city.
Before he got close to the city, he suddenly saw a team of dozens of robots spraying exhaust gas, flying towards him in a mighty manner, and missiles and lasers rained down on him.
He sneered, dodging while sending out waves of light from his palm. The light waves were fast and accurate, with amazing destructive power, and quickly blew the robots into scrap metal.
After destroying the robots, he was about to rush to the city in front of him, but suddenly saw a figure on the ground soaring into the air, kicking through the air, and kicking him in the chest with great force.
"Martial artist!"
Piccolo laughed loudly, raised his hand and grabbed the kick that broke through the air, threw it to the ground, and immediately chased after it.
"Hahahaha! Compared to destroying the city, I still prefer to kill martial artists!"
Bang tried to stabilize his body.
But he had nowhere to relieve the force in the air, and his momentum did not stop at all. His body hit the ground like a missile, hitting the ground and shattering the rocks with a bang. His internal organs felt like they were about to shift and vibrated constantly. He felt sweet in his mouth and coughed out bright red blood from the corner of his mouth.
He quickly got up from the rubble and got ready, but his eyes showed a deep look of horror.
"What a strong weirdo!"
He had just left Z City and was about to return to the association to submit his resignation. On the way, he met a flying green-skinned monster. Seeing that he destroyed Shueisha's flying robot with a wave of his hand and was about to fly to Z City, he decisively took action and tried to stop him.
Although he kicked from the ground to the sky, the other party threw him and damaged his internal organs with a casual throw, which showed that the other party's strength, speed, and reaction power overwhelmingly surpassed him!
Bang immediately took a deep breath and used breathing techniques to suppress the injuries in his body. His muscles swelled up and his physical strength increased significantly.
The next moment, the green-skinned monster fell from the sky, and his hands with ten fingers crossed smashed down on him like a sledgehammer.
Bang's eyes bulged. This attack was so powerful that he might not be able to save his head if he was hit. He immediately took a step back, opened his front and back feet, and took the opportunity to draw a flowing trajectory with his hands.
Piccolo's attack missed, and he couldn't help but show astonishment.
He actually managed to dodge his head-on attack?
Are the quality of martial artists this year so high?
"Are you Wu Taidou's disciple?"
He was furious, and kicked Bang in the air while shouting.
"Unforgivable! All Wu Taidou's disciples must die!"
What Taidou is not funny! He has never heard of it!
Bang wanted to respond, but Piccolo kicked him. He used his hands to draw continuously to remove most of the force, but still felt an unimaginable force coming towards him. His body flew backwards uncontrollably, and his arms couldn't stop shaking.
He didn't dare to say a word, for fear that he would lose his breath and become unable to take away the monster's strength.
Piccolo was like a beast biting its prey, and his body was as fast as a hypersonic missile. He chased Bang and kept hitting him with combos. Every punch and kick was powerful and fast as lightning!
Bang gritted his teeth and could only hold on, without even a chance to fight back.
In the distance.
"I can't beat Piccolo."
The pink-haired boy floated in the air, his figure was transparent, and the naked eye couldn't see a single bit.
He watched the two fighting from a distance, and saw that Bang had no power to fight back, and frowned deeply for a moment.
Silver Fang was considered strong, and was only inferior to the first and second place Blast and Tornado in the Hero Association. He couldn't beat Piccolo, and the pink-haired boy was not surprised. He was surprised that he could fight Piccolo with so many moves.
"If this continues, this old man will die at the hands of Lord Piccolo!"
If this old man was a criminal who committed many evil deeds, he would be dead. But this old man was not a criminal, but a professional hero. His fists had saved countless people.
The pink-haired boy couldn't sit back and watch him die.
"Are you going to move the Big Devil Piccolo away again? But I'm afraid he's already wary of me. I don't know martial arts and can't suppress the so-called 'qi'. He might find out the moment I appear, and it might be in vain. And if you do it directly, you might be caught by cameras, satellites, etc..."
He didn't want to be discovered. Whether it was the Heroes Association or Shueisha, they were all things that had nothing to do with him. He didn't want to pay attention to any of them.
If possible, he doesn't want to appear in front of people in this world, which will bring him a lot of unnecessary trouble.
Then use telekinesis remotely?
"Isn't that person aware of the fighting here?"
Seeing that Bang Gu could no longer hold on any longer, and that his whole body was bleeding and his limbs were twisting under the continuous attacks of Big Devil Piccolo, the pink-haired boy's heart gradually became heavy, and he looked in the direction of the Z City Central Building from a distance.
Demon King Piccolo may be even stronger than the previous leader of the Monster Association, Monster King Orochi!
No S-class hero or city patron saint can be trusted. There is only one person in the world who can deal with him!
The pink-haired boy concluded this and moved Demon King Piccolo to the outskirts of Z City.
The flying robots have been destroyed, he should know.
But why hasn't it come yet?
If this continues, Silver Fang will die!
"Go to hell, martial artist!"
At the same time, on the other side, Big Demon King Piccolo opened his mouth full of fangs, raised the corners of his eyes, smiled cruelly, and punched Bangu away with all his limbs twisted. At the same time, he stretched out his right index finger, with veins all over his body popping out, and shouted angrily. A sound.
"Magic light!"
Golden flames burst out from his body, and then quickly condensed on the tip of the index finger of his right hand. A golden light shot out like twisted thunder and shot towards Banggu's front.
Bangu's head was so dizzy that he couldn't even open his eyes clearly. The moment the light hit him, he instinctively wanted to avoid it, but his twisted limbs were completely disobedient.
The magic light was like light and quickly penetrated his chest.
The blood in the chest spurted out, and even the trachea was blocked. The pumping speed of the heart instinctively accelerated, but the strength of the body was rapidly draining away.
I really didn't expect that he would die in such a place.
Bang Gu felt a bit abrupt, this death came too suddenly.
But he didn't feel unwilling. After living for so many years, he was used to ups and downs, and he had long been prepared to face death, but he didn't expect it to be today.
It's a pity that he can't join Shueisha, he can't go to the dojo for free, and the Liusuiyan Shattering Fist will be lost in his hands.
Bang Gu was thinking hazy in his mind.
At this time, a wordless voice suddenly came from his ears.
"Why are you so worried about the weirdo who appeared in Z city?"
Banggu tried his best to open his eyes and saw a white-haired boy coming to him.
He probably came here after a long journey, his hair was messed up, and his eyes were as calm as when they met before.
"Haha, I've been a hero for so long, I'm used to it..."
Bang Gu held on and said.
And he really didn't expect this ugly green-skinned monster to be so strong.
The dragon-level monsters are not only earth-shattering in appearance, but at least they live up to their reputations. This green-skinned monster looks a bit too ordinary.
It may also be that he was a little far away at the time and his old eyes were dim and could not see clearly...
"You owe me your life."
Roy squatted down and put his palms on Banggu's chest.
"It's unjustifiable not to work for me."
The blood in Banggu's chest instantly returned, and his muscles, bones, and blood vessels recovered in just one second. Even his twisted limbs returned to normal.
Banggu was waiting to die when he suddenly felt his body was getting better. He stood up from the ground like a carp and patted his body incredulously.
It’s as if he wasn’t hurt at all!
"Hmm, can I still send you to the dojo for free?"
Bang Gu groaned, looking a little embarrassed.
"I really don't have that much money."
"Seeing as you are standing up for Z City."
Roy chuckled, letting Banggu breathe a sigh of relief.
Immediately, Roy stepped forward, crossed Bangu, and came to the front of the Big Demon King Piccolo.
"I see, it is indeed the Great Demon King Piccolo."
He looked at the green-skinned monster up and down for a while, with a relieved look on his face.
"In this way, we can finally decide who the backer is!"
That's right.
Piccolo is from the Dragon Ball world.
As for the Dragon Ball world, it's not even in the world exchange group that Gen is a member of!
The level of the Dragon Ball world is quite high, and there are many beings that can destroy planets, galaxies, and even the universe. If someone is really robbed, there is no excuse for not being connected to the One Punch World!
In this way, it is very clear.
One Punch World does have a backer that it relies on, and this backer is the Dragon Ball World!
"It's so rare, kid, do you actually know me, the Great Demon King Piccolo?"
Piccolo's eyes moved away from Banggu's chest, which had recovered as good as ever, and his admiring eyes fell on Roy.
"You seem to have very rare healing abilities. Since you know me, the Great Demon King Piccolo, as long as you are willing to join me, I will spare your life!"
Picco looked at Roy with arrogant comments, as if he regarded him as a convenient blood bag and wanted to keep him by his side for emergency use.
"Hehe."
Roy chuckled and answered the question irrelevantly.
"Picco, tell me how you came here, and I won't torture your soul and let you live a dead ghost in peace."
He raised his hand gently, as if he was holding the great devil Piccolo in his palm, and his eyes were filled with malice.
