Z City was originally a relatively large city. Of course, that was before the disaster. Now Z City is definitely not as prosperous as other surrounding cities. With Heroes City A, where the association's headquarters is located, is even more different.
In current Z City, only the central area is inhabited, but the population density is relatively low. Outside the central area, there are large areas of no-man's land with warning signs!
There, the frequency of weirdos or monsters appearing is very high, overwhelmingly exceeding that of other places in the entire island country. It is a scary place that no one wants to live in even if they don't want to pay any money.
Since weirdos began to appear ten years ago, especially those high-level weirdos that frequently appeared in the no-man's land of Z City, the residents have either fled Z City or moved to the center of the city to live in the no-man's land. Natural gas and other living facilities were so abandoned that even maintenance workers did not dare to repair or shut them down.
In addition, it is necessary to supply the lives of the people in the central urban area of City Z, and energy facilities such as water, electricity, etc. are connected from outside the city to the city. The key lines are in the no-man's land, so that is the house where Annie lives and The real reason why the area where a certain bald man's apartment building is located still has water and electricity that can still be used.
Over time, the famous no-man's land of Z City began to be called the terrifying 'ghost city', 'no-man's ghost', 'no-owner's land', etc., and the prices and rents of urban areas were so cheap that People are pointing out that it cannot be cheaper anymore.
In fact, there is no rent at all!
Anyway, it’s probably like this: In the no-man’s land of Z city, all the houses, water, electricity, land and other facilities, no matter who they are, can go in and use them as they like, and the house rent, water, electricity and other expenses are all covered. It’s free, as long as you’re not afraid of the various super scary monsters inside, and you’re not afraid of being caught, killed or eaten by monsters at any time?
So far, no one knows why weirdos are so frequent and increasing in number only in the no-man’s land of City Z. They also don’t know why weirdos never come out of the no-man’s land of City Z after they appear, and then directly attack the terror. Spreading into the central area of City Z is something that even the headquarters of the Heroes Association still can’t figure out or figure out.
Therefore, today, they sent two A-level heroes, namely Golden Ball, ranked 29th in the A-level hero ranking, and Spring Beard, the 33rd ranked A-level hero, and asked them to team up and go to Z City. No Man’s Land investigates the reasons for the formation of ghost towns and the mysterious truth behind the frequent occurrence of weirdos.
But...
When Annie and Bald Saitama heard the fighting and rushed over, they found:
The Golden Ball, who was ranked 29th in Class A in the Hero Association, and the Spring Beard, who was ranked 33rd in Class A, had already fallen miserably under the weirdo with kelp on his head, and immediately passed out. It's over.
"Ah~!"
(?'▽'?)
"Bald man, look, there seems to be a weirdo over there. Did it just crawl out of the sea? Why is there so much spicy kelp on it?"
(*^▽^*)
Standing side by side with Bald Saitama on the roof of this building, Annie saw it at a glance:
There is a weird man with weird kelp on his head on the street in front?
That is to say, it is daytime now. If it comes out at night, its hideous and terrifying face, moss-covered body skin, and slimy and dancing kelp hair, I believe it will definitely scare many children and cowards. .
"have no idea……"
"Maybe it's a mutant monster caused by too much nuclear wastewater?"
After scratching his smooth head and looking at the other person's lush kelp hair, Saitama felt vaguely jealous for some reason.
He always has the urge to rush forward regardless, defeat the opponent, and tear out the opponent's too lush 'hair'?
In short, Saitama just couldn't bear to see other people with lush hair, especially the weird guy in front of him with thick hair that covered his body. The more he looked at it, the more he felt that the other person was openly mocking him, Saitama, for being bald.
"Bald man, do you want to beat it?"
(????)
Annie felt the vague hostility on the other side, and couldn't help but asked a little strangely.
"Well……"
"Don't want it for now?"
"We just beat the ball yesterday and took pictures and uploaded it. We don't have to worry about active tasks this week. Should we let it go for two days and then clean it up next Monday?"
"And I seem to have forgotten to buy kelp sauce today..."
Yes, in Saitama's view, both the identity of the other weirdo and the active task are secondary. The most important thing now is that he didn't remember to buy kelp sauce when he went shopping in the supermarket today, and if he didn't buy kelp sauce If so, those kelp will definitely have a fishy smell when eaten, and the experience will definitely not be very good.
Maybe……
Can they remember to buy that kind of sauce when they go to the supermarket again, and then pick up each other when they come back?
In this way, the problem of ingredients is solved, the problem of the task is also solved, and the money for side dishes can be saved for many days. Isn't that killing two birds with one stone?
"Kelp?"
!(;?o?)o
"But……"
(′~`●)
"Bald uncle, the kelp on that weirdo's head is sticky and dirty, and it doesn't look delicious..."
(lll¬▽¬)
As a foodie, Annie naturally knew what the bald Uncle Saitama was trying to do, and she also knew that the weirdo below would be able to eat the thick kelp on his head for a long time, but... the thought of spicy kelp was the weirdo's head. When it grew on her vagina, she immediately lost her appetite.
"Can that thing be eaten?"
(?~?)
"People always think it's better if you don't try those weird things?"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
Anyway, Annie herself would definitely not try it easily, and if it was the ones grown in the sea, there would be no problem.
"Of course you can eat it!"
"Wash it and use it to make soup. It will definitely be delicious..."
"You can dry it if you can't finish it. It can be stored for a long time! It just so happens that the balconies of the surrounding apartments are all empty and unoccupied. Can we pull them out and dry them on the balcony for a few days?"
He stretched out his nose and sniffed the air. Soon, the bald Saitama smelled the strong smell of sea and nodded firmly.
The smell of kelp on the strange man was so strong that it could be smelled on the roof of the building where he and little Annie were. Therefore, it must be kelp, and it must be right.
…
At this time, the weirdo on the abandoned road below didn't notice the existence of Saitama and Annie at all. He just looked at the two A-class heroes who were defeated by it and looked proud.
'Jie! '
'what the hell! '
'After all your hard work, your trip was in vain, and you defeated just two heroes? '
'no! '
'How can you become famous if you stay in a place like this? '
'It seems that I should break into the residential area and kill all the residents. Only in this way can I cause enough sensation? '
'Jiejiejiejiejie...'
'Decided! '
As if talking to himself, after the Kelp Monster finished speaking, he no longer cared about the two unconscious A-class heroes, but turned around, as if he really planned to kill in the central residential area of Z City?
"!!"
"stop!!"
At this time, without waiting for Anne's reaction, Saitama raised his eyebrows and jumped down and blocked the weird man.
Originally, Bald Saitama really planned to take care of him for two days first, wait until the next week, and then deal with him after he bought the kelp sauce, but now it can't be done, because he will definitely not tolerate him living in the center of Z City. The area is causing trouble.
Otherwise, if all the people in the central area of Z City die or run away, turning the entire Z City into a no-man's land, where will he go shopping in the future?
You know, because Z City has a small population, supermarket prices have always been very low, and they often have big sales on Saturdays. He likes it very much, and he can't let that kelp weirdo ruin Z City in the past few years. The stable ecological and cultural environment that was finally formed was destroyed.
"Um?"
"Who are you?"
"Another hero?"
Seeing Saitama jumping from the sky, Kelp Monster was startled.
"Yes! I am a C-level hero. The hero ranking was originally ranked 388th in C-level, second to last!"
"that……"
"Mr. Weird, let's discuss it. It goes like this. You stay here for two days first. Don't rush to the residential area. I will buy the seasonings in two days and then come here to beat you to death. What do you think of this suggestion? Sample?"
Looking at the kelp all over the opponent's head and face, and then looking at the thick, tough and flexible appearance of the kelp, the bald Saitama swallowed his saliva first, and then made a serious suggestion to the kelp weirdo.
"..."
"you……"
"Go to hell!!!!"
How could the kelp weirdo accept that outrageous suggestion?
Therefore, without even thinking about it, after being silent for a while and looking at Saitama's expressionless dead fish face for a few seconds, it turned its back and sold it, controlling the sky-shielding kelp to move towards it from all directions. Bald Saitama rolled over!
The kelp was so dense and terrifying that even the sunlight was completely blocked, directly covering Saitama in the terrifying dark shadow.
But...
puff! !
There was a dull collision sound from a fist to flesh, and by the time Little Annie floated down from upstairs and landed, the kelp monster had already fallen to the ground motionless.
"It's dead?"
(???.???)????
Annie walked forward and kicked the weirdo's feet tentatively, then turned to the bald man and asked.
"I don't know either……"
"As you can see, he struck first, and I punched him back."
"but……"
Said, Saitama leaned down, grabbed a piece of kelp hair of the other party, pinched it with his hands, then licked it, and finally even opened his mouth and took a bite.
"Annie..."
Saitama's expression changed.
"OK!"
(°ー°〃)
"What are you doing?"
(^~^;)ゞ
"This is really kelp..."
"Do you want to eat kelp tonight?"
With a little force on his hand, Saitama easily pulled out a piece of kelp. After discovering that its root was exactly the same as the kelp, its thickness and toughness were even better. It could be said that it was the best kelp. His hands started to move. A little trembling.
"Eat, eat its hair?!"
=????(???*)
"I don't care, it's so disgusting! Besides, it looks dirty..."
\(“▔□▔)/
Without thinking, Annie shook her head like a rattle, and then took two big steps back in a hurry.
You know, Annie almost never eats intelligent creatures, let alone humanoids!
And that weirdo obviously has a human form and can even talk, so he will definitely not appear in Annie's recipe.
Although the other person's hair is real kelp, Annie will not eat anything on that monster, not even kelp!
“It’s free!”
"Do not want?"
"All right……"
Seeing that little Annie continued to shake her head and took two steps back firmly, Saitama had no choice but to give up with regret.
"Forget it if you don't want to, but I want to try..."
Saitama would not tell little Annie that in that kind of kelp factory, the unprocessed kelp there was shoveled by workers and stepped on with their feet. It was much dirtier than this.
But anyway, kelp and other things can be eaten as long as they are washed, and he doesn't care about boring things like whether it grows on rocks or on weird people's heads.
Of course, the most important thing is: the kelp in front of him does not cost money. Although he has made a lot of money recently, if he can save it, he still has to save as much as possible.
then……
It didn't take long for Saitama, who was using his hands and feet, to quickly pluck out the weirdo's full head of hair under Annie's gaze, turning it into a big bloody bald head, and then happily I walked towards my apartment at home with my arms full of kelp.
"Annie!"
"I'm going to cook a pot of kelp and miso soup tonight. Please come to our house as a guest, okay?"
Saitama, who feels that it's not good to often go to the neighbor's little girl's house for dinner, seems to be planning to reciprocate and use the fresh kelp he harvested today to entertain his good neighbor?
Of course, when making miso soup, one stick would be enough, and the rest could be dried by Genos and eaten slowly.
During this period, because Genos insisted on coming to practice with him, his family's food expenses doubled out of thin air. Therefore, he had to be careful with his budget, especially the ingredients, which must not be wasted, and food Also keep buying those items on sale that are about to expire!
"People don't want to go to your house to eat!"
(??ω???‖)?
"Don't even think about it!!"
(′?︵?`)
"Yeah?"
"That's such a shame..."
Soon, as Little Annie and Saitama left, only the two unconscious A-class heroes and the kelp monster with his hair pulled out were left on this street.
