Chapter 142: I'm Taking It Back!!
With a clever burst of the Power of Water Stream, Fuhrer Ugly's fist was deflected once again. His entire face turned red with rage, his features twisting together.
"Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!! Why is everyone targeting me like this! Is it just because I'm ugly! You bunch of bastards who look better than me all deserve to die!!"
Fuhrer Ugly shrieked manically, his violent sound waves even creating ripples in the air, making the eardrums of Bang and the others ache.
"Why are you yelling so loud?!"
An annoyed voice suddenly rang out from beside Fuhrer Ugly. Taking advantage of the monster's rage, Metal Bat had somehow closed in and raised his bat high.
From an angle invisible to the others, an invisible Aura was continuously erupting from Metal Bat's body, then surging into the bat like a tide.
"Metal Pummel!"
Metal Bat shouted, slamming his bat hard against Fuhrer Ugly's leg. Accompanied by the clear sound of tearing flesh and breaking bone, Fuhrer Ugly's left leg was smashed directly into a '<' shape.
Howling in pain, Fuhrer Ugly lost his balance due to the broken leg and tumbled to the ground, his massive body slamming into the earth and kicking up clouds of dust.
He struggled to lift his head, his already hideous face now smeared with dust, looking even more disgusting.
His sanity completely eroded, his eyes turned blood-red as he frantically smashed his fist into the spot where Metal Bat had just been.
However, while heavily injured, Metal Bat's attributes had all been greatly enhanced. He simply leaped high to dodge the fist and then landed on Fuhrer Ugly's back.
Metal Bat brushed back his hair. The blood on his face held his hair up high, forming a perfect pompadour.
"You're ugly and you're loud as hell. I've been sick of looking at you for a long time!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Metal Bat leaned back, the muscles in his arms bulging instantly as he slammed his bat down hard onto Fuhrer Ugly's spine.
"Aaaaagh!!!"
Fuhrer Ugly's hundred-meter-tall body was smashed into a "V" shape. The ground beneath him cracked, sending debris flying everywhere.
With his spine shattered, Fuhrer Ugly immediately lost the ability to move and could only wriggle helplessly on the ground.
His voice was squeezed out from between his teeth, filled with utter malice and weakness:
"Die... I'm going to kill you all... I'm going to destroy your faces..."
[Enough!!!]
A thunderous roar suddenly exploded in Fuhrer Ugly's ears. In his vision, which was blurred by blood, a twisted humanoid creature suddenly appeared.
The humanoid creature had no facial features, and its voice was grand and vast, yet filled with the anger of one disappointed by incompetence.
[What a bunch of trash! You are unworthy of my power! I am taking it back!]
The moment Fuhrer Ugly heard these words, he felt the Divine Power within his body being continuously drained, flowing into the Void.
His massive body began to shrink, and his life force was being pulled away along with the Divine Power. His once powerful physical body gradually became weak.
Realizing he was about to die, Fuhrer Ugly's eyes were filled with terror as he shook his head desperately.
"No! Lord God! You can't do this! Please, no! I can still keep fighting! I can still keep killing them!"
[Shut up! You useless things! I will take it back from all of you! You no longer have the right to continue living!]
"No... please..."
Fuhrer Ugly's cries grew weaker as his massive body gradually turned into a dried corpse, his skin sagging as he died completely.
The S-Class trio, having witnessed the entire process, were completely bewildered.
Metal Bat, still standing on Fuhrer Ugly's back, was stunned to find that the opponent had turned into a corpse that looked like it had been baked in the sun for dozens of days.
"What's going on? How did this guy just dry up after being beaten to death?"
Atomic Samurai's nose twitched as he gripped his sharp longsword tightly, scanning the surroundings with a heavy gaze.
"Something's not right... I feel a dangerous presence nearby. This place is not safe."
Bang's brow furrowed. He could sense that the energy and life force within Fuhrer Ugly had been drained by an unknown entity.
Combining that with Fuhrer Ugly's terrified expression before death, he immediately guessed the truth of the matter.
"It seems the mastermind behind the scenes, known as 'God,' has made a move. It looks like he is very dissatisfied with the performance of these Dragon-Level Monsters."
Atomic Samurai raised an eyebrow, his gaze as sharp as a sword, his body emitting a keen Aura.
"You mean that guy calling himself God is planning to enter the fray himself?"
Metal Bat sneered, his hands tightly gripping his bat, the blood flowing down his face adding to his ferocity.
"I don't care if it's a God or not, let him take a hit from my bat first!"
...On the other side, Pig God and Watchdog Man, who were fighting Gums, both sensed something wrong at the same time and instinctively backed away dozens of meters.
Gums let out a terrified shriek as if he had seen something that filled him with extreme dread. His bloody maw almost split open as he kept retreating.
However, amidst Gums' terrified screams and under the astonished gazes of Pig God and Watchdog Man, his bloated body—which looked like a white glutinous rice ball—began to shrink rapidly, shriveling up at a visible speed.
In just a few seconds, Gums' mummified body crashed heavily to the ground, motionless... At the same time, Tatsumaki felt Homeless Emperor struggling desperately behind her. Her brow furrowed as she said coldly:
"You filthy, stinking middle-aged hobo, stay still! Or I won't mind twisting off your fifth limb right now!"
When she turned her head and saw Homeless Emperor's expression, she was suddenly stunned.
At this moment, Homeless Emperor's eyes were full of resentment and extreme terror, his face having turned deathly pale.
"Lord God! I beg you, do not take away my power! I still want revenge! I still want to keep fighting for you! Don't take it away!"
No matter how he cried out, God remained unmoved.
In fact, Homeless Emperor was one of the subjects God wanted to strip power from the most.
After all, this guy carried two portions of power, yet his combat record was so abysmal; it was better to just take it back early.
