At the same time, in a house in Konoha village.
Kiba who was hugging Akamaru suddenly felt his arms empty. He immediately woke up with sleepy eyes, and saw Akamaru sitting on the edge of the bed daydreaming while staring out the window.
Just as he was about to speak, he saw a beam of golden light floating in from outside and directly merging into Akamaru's body.
"This... a Gold List reward!"
Kiba was momentarily stunned, then overjoyed. He immediately jumped to the window and looked out. He saw Akamaru's name displayed very prominently on the golden scroll hanging high in the sky, emitting light thousands of feet.
"Akamaru, you made the Myriad Beasts List! Amazing!" Kiba laughed heartily and hugged Akamaru tightly with very happy feelings.
"Woof woof!" Akamaru was also very happy.
With this Gold List reward, not only would he become stronger, Kiba would also become more powerful. Their clan's combination technique worked like that, complementing each other.

One Punch Man World.
Mosquito Girl floating high in the sky looked up at the night sky. She spread both her arms to receive the golden light falling and seeping into her body. After a moment of rapid and thrilling breathing sounds, Mosquito Girl opened her eyes, showing an enchanted expression.
This sensation of gaining power made her very obsessed. Since being swatted by that suddenly appearing baldy, she had doubted her own strength. Only after the Gold List appeared and that baldy's face was displayed at third place on the Strongest List did she realize how lucky she was at that time.
If that person had used just a little more effort, perhaps by now she would have become a puddle of crushed meat like her offspring.
"I wonder if I now have the qualifications to challenge that baldy..." Mosquito Girl murmured softly.
Her eyes radiated thirst for power. With her graceful body, she swayed under the moonlight, creating a dance movement capable of making anyone's blood boil watching it. However, behind that, her eyes were full of evil and murderous intent. This was Mosquito Girl, an experimental product born to kill and destroy.
Although an experimental product, her evolution method had unique characteristics.
"If I could suck that person's blood, I wonder to what level I could evolve?" Mosquito Girl licked her sexy lips with an evil grin.
"You hope for too much. You won't be able to do it, and you won't have the chance to wait for that moment!" Suddenly, a cold voice sounded from behind her.
"Who?!" Mosquito Girl was startled and turned quickly.
She saw a strange young man whose entire body was wrapped in machinery staring at her coldly with synthetic electronic eyes.
"Genos?!" Mosquito Girl immediately sneered. "You again!"
Back then, while fighting this person she met that baldy and almost died. This person before wasn't her match and she almost forced him to self-destruct. Their meeting truly was like mortal enemies whose eyes reddened with hatred.
Genos wasn't interested at all in the seductive demon woman before him. To him, the opposite sex was no different from skeletons; there was no attraction whatsoever.
"Why? You want to kill me?" Mosquito Girl put on a mocking expression. "Back then you weren't my match, now I've already received a Gold List reward. Did you come here just to seek death?"
Genos didn't answer, only continued staring at her coldly. That wordless gaze instead made Mosquito Girl feel suspicious and gave her indescribable pressure.
(Wait, I heard this Genos has already become that baldy's student. Has his strength increased rapidly because he received authentic teachings? Or could it be, that baldy is also here?)
Thinking this, Mosquito Girl's hackles immediately rose. She looked around frantically. Toward that baldy, she had soul-deep trauma; she had no courage to resist at all.
"Run!"
Mosquito Girl didn't care whether her guess was right or not. Better safe than sorry. If there was a possibility that baldy would appear, this time she would definitely die. She didn't believe her luck would always be good. Last time she survived only because that baldy had no intention to kill and somehow wasn't wearing clothes.
Once the intention to flee arose, Mosquito Girl immediately waved her hand.
Instantly, strong wind blew from who knows where. Dense black clouds rolled up from below. If observed carefully, those black clouds actually consisted of millions of mosquitoes joined as one.
"That move again!" Genos snorted coldly.
His equipment had been comprehensively upgraded by Dr. Kuseno, even with help from Metal Knight. Of course, that was all done because of respect for Saitama. If not, how could Metal Knight be willing to help others surpass himself?
Genos's right palm opened, revealing a spiral hole that suddenly spewed a very high-temperature flame tongue toward the black cloud below.
*WHOOSH!*
That flame tongue rolled wildly in the air, making a crackling sound that burned the air until distorted, charging like an angry fire dragon.
"Mimic Storm!"
Mosquito Girl suddenly swooped toward the black cloud below while moving her finger.
The black cloud instantly transformed rapidly, gathering to the center and in a flash transformed into a terrifying giant face, then blew a huge breath.
*SWOOSH!*
That fierce fire dragon was instead blown back by that breath.
"What?!" Genos was shocked, not expecting this to happen.
Immediately after that, he saw Mosquito Girl directly charge into the mouth of that giant face. The face transformed again into a black tornado that shot rapidly downward.
"Don't think you can escape!" Genos who came chasing the Gold List reward mark wouldn't let her slip away like that.
He immediately pulled both arms, diving headfirst chasing that tornado, while his legs spewed propulsion fire to add speed.
However, when he approached the ground, his pupils contracted. That black tornado shattered completely upon touching the ground, breaking into small parts. Mosquito Girl who was inside vanished without a trace as if she had never been there.
"Where did she run to?" Genos landed on the ground, his electronic eyes continuously scanning surroundings trying to lock the opponent's position, but he found nothing.
◆━⊰✿✧✿⊱━◆
Half a minute later.
In a small alley several miles away, a seductive woman wearing a large red coat walked out while swaying her hips and fanning herself with a folding fan. Her appearance was very beautiful and full of allure, every movement capable of captivating men's souls.
"Hey beautiful, wanna date?" A pockmarked man with scar marks who looked like a thug saw this woman and his eyes immediately sparkled; his drool almost dripped.
The woman gave a seductive wink and smiled slyly: "Of course, handsome!"
