"This size is definitely the animated version of the Giant. Only the animated version is so exaggerated. The manga version of the Giant is nearly 300 meters tall and is a true Demon Level entity."
"Although the animated version of the Giant is Demon Level, its true strength is Dragon Level. Just based on its performance in the anime, the Giant is not weak even among Dragon Levels. Only someone like Elder Centipede could compete with it."
On the ruined ground, Zhao Zheng, transformed into a blood-black shadow, desperately chased the towering Giant, whose body was filled with muscles. The closer he got, the more awe-inspiring the Giant's size became.
It was too big, so big it brought despair!
Among the Wolf to God levels, each level has its strong and weak points, especially the Dragon Level.
Bakuzan, a human martial artist who ate Monster cells and transformed into the Monster Bakuzan, although a Dragon Level, was a weaker existence among Dragon Levels. Facing Gouketsu, who was also a Dragon Level, Bakuzan couldn't even withstand a single punch!
And this Giant, over a thousand meters tall, created by Fukoge, is probably comparable to Gouketsu and Elder Centipede among Dragon Levels.
"I'm getting more and more interested in Fukoge."
Zhao Zheng's eyes showed hunger. He licked his lips with his tongue and, after approaching the Giant at supersonic speed, leaped high with his super jumping ability, landing on the Giant's body and heading towards his shoulder.
The stronger the Giant, the more it proved the power of his brother Fukoge.
Zhao Zheng was increasingly greedy for his brain. Fukoge's original fate was to be crushed to death by his own brother, not even a paste, at most a little bloodstain.
According to the original plot, no matter how powerful Zhao Zheng's blacklight virus was, he wouldn't be able to completely devour Fukoge once he became a bloodstain.
He could only change his plan and strike first!
"Roar!"
The Giant, currently moving towards City B, roared skyward. With a casual wave of his massive palm, he stirred up winds more powerful than a typhoon, destroying large swathes of buildings.
He didn't notice Zhao Zheng jumping around on his body, just as humans don't notice fleas on themselves unless they attack.
"You're amazing, little brother! Just your palm wind destroyed an entire area. Little brother, you already possess the strongest physique in the world, and with my strongest brain..."
"We brothers are destined to become kings of the world. Let's keep going like this, head to City B, and destroy City B too!"
On the Giant's shoulder, a disheveled middle-aged man wearing glasses and a white lab coat excitedly looked down, cheering joyfully.
He was Fukoge, who had developed the King of Biceps serum, transforming his brother into a towering Giant.
"Chirp, chirp, chirp! Future king, look here!"
"blacklight. Blade!"
Before the Giant could say anything, a mocking dog-calling sound came. Fukoge instinctively turned his head.
A flash of blade light. Fukoge felt himself flying into the air and spinning.
While spinning, Fukoge saw a headless corpse in a white lab coat.
"That looks like my body. Was my head chopped off?"
Fukoge's mind was confused. At the same time, he saw a black-haired young man in casual clothes standing in front of his headless body. The young man's right arm had become massive, covered in blood-black, grotesque armor, and his right hand had transformed into a thick, gleaming giant blade.
There wasn't a drop of blood on the blade, but Fukoge knew it must have been that blade that beheaded him.
"Thank you for the feast."
The young man whose arm had transformed into a blade was, predictably, Zhao Zheng, who had arrived. After successfully ambushing, a slight smile played on his lips. His right arm's blacklight blade transformed into a tentacle. The tentacle extended, enveloping Fukoge's headless body along with his head, refining it in an instant.
Although Zhao Zheng felt a bit squeamish about devouring humans, it depended on the person. For a mad scientist like Fukoge, his death was a great thing.
As for the ability to turn his hand into a blade, Zhao Zheng didn't acquire it by absorbing blacklight. Hunter like Alex Mercer, but he could imitate it, using his blacklight body to transform into a blade just like he would transform tentacles!
Similarly, Zhao Zheng could transform into Alex Mercer's other weapon abilities!
"Brother! No!"
"How dare you kill my brother! Give me back my brother's life!"
The Giant hadn't expected his brother to die the moment he turned his head. This caused him immense pain, and his voice thundered.
He raised his palm and swung it like lightning, striking at Zhao Zheng on his shoulder.
"blacklight. Dash!"
Zhao Zheng had been watching the Giant's every move. The moment the Giant roared, he sprinted across the Giant's body at extreme speed, dodging the Giant's palm strike.
The palm strike, upon hitting the Giant's shoulder, unleashed a storm powerful enough to destroy buildings, but it couldn't destroy Zhao Zheng, who possessed Demon Level strength. Instead, it made Zhao Zheng even faster.
"blacklight. Claws. Dash Slice!"
"blacklight. Blade. Dash Frenzy Kill!"
Zhao Zheng moved across the Giant's surface. His left hand transformed into slender, gleaming claws, his left arm also covered in blood-black armor. His right hand, meanwhile, transformed back into a blood-black armored blade.
In an instant, Zhao Zheng's claws and blade waved, continuously attacking the Giant's skin while he moved. However, the Giant's defense was formidable. Even his skin only sparked under Zhao Zheng's cuts, causing the Giant slight pain but failing to break his defense.
Zhao Zheng wasn't surprised. The Giant had the achievement of remaining fully intact even after a single punch from Saitama.
Any other Dragon Level Monster would have been pulverized into a mist of blood by Saitama's punch, or at least lost half its body if it were stronger.
"Damn little bug! Don't run!"
The Giant roared, pain wracking his body, fueling his already furious heart like oil on a fire, making it burn even more fiercely.
He sped up his palm strikes, repeatedly hitting himself, but still couldn't hit Zhao Zheng, who was like an annoying fly.
"A scientist's brain is indeed useful. I can multitask and use different abilities. Otherwise, with the original owner's brain, I estimate I'd only be able to use one skill, like Alex Mercer in the game."
"Regarding the blacklight virus, with Fukoge's brain, I've also gained more inspiration for development."
Zhao Zheng ignored the Giant completely. While dashing and attacking, he carefully felt the changes within himself after devouring Fukoge's brain.
First, his intelligence significantly increased, now belonging to the super intellect category. His brain was much more capable than before!
He also gained a lot of scientific research knowledge. Zhao Zheng could easily become a replica of Fukoge, the scientist, if he wished.
"If you can withstand my next three moves, I won't play with you anymore."
Zhao Zheng moved back to the Giant's shoulder, then leaped high with his super jumping ability, reaching above the Giant's head.
"blacklight. Energy Blast!"
Zhao Zheng raised his claws and blade. Between the claws and blade, a massive energy orb, a mix of blood-red and deep-black, appeared. Zhao Zheng swung it down fiercely, sending it directly towards the Giant's head.
That was an ability the original blacklight virus didn't possess. It was a new ability Zhao Zheng gained after devouring Vaccine Man and acquiring Vaccine Man's Energy Blast skill.
Vaccine Man had used this ability to cause widespread destruction in City A.
"A mere trick, daring to show off before an expert!"
The Giant swung his palm upwards, directly hitting the blacklight. Energy Blast. An explosion sounded, creating a huge cloud of smoke.
His palm felt immense pain, but his defense still wasn't broken. For a Demon Level, a Dragon Level Monster is a true Monster, and the Giant was an even stronger Dragon Level.
"blacklight. Hammerfist. High-Altitude Hammer Strike!"
"blacklight. Gravemaker!"
From the smoke, Zhao Zheng used Bullet Dive, quickly bursting out of the smoke, accelerating his descent towards the Giant's head.
During the descent, his right-hand blade transformed into a blood-black armored giant hammer, resembling an irregular meteor hammer. The hammer's power was amplified by the falling speed, striking the Giant's head with a resounding thud, causing the Giant's body to sway.
The gleaming claws also stabbed fiercely into the Giant's head, but still failed to break the Giant's defense. In fact, cracks quickly appeared on the surface of the claws.
