Goku: "Light-speed punch? What do you mean—are you saying your fists actually move at the speed of light?!"
Sisyphus: "Yes, that's one of the basic techniques of us Gold Saints."
Tony Stark: "What the hell?! Are you kidding me?! Do you even know what that means? If your punches truly moved at light speed, the energy released would rival a nuclear explosion!"
Bruce Wayne: "And according to physics, a human body couldn't possibly withstand the force of moving at light speed. You're saying you can throw punches at light speed without any side effects?!"
Sisyphus: "Nope. After years of training, I've gotten used to it."
Steve Rogers: "Also, did any of you notice the number of light streaks he created? Were those all punches?"
Sisyphus: "Correct. I threw over one hundred million punches in a single second."
Tony Stark: "WHAT THE FUCK?! Are you serious right now?! I just said a single light-speed punch is equivalent to a nuclear bomb, and you're telling me you threw ONE HUNDRED MILLION of them in a single second?! Do you realize how terrifying that destructive power is?! That would be enough to turn Earth into dust!"
Nick Fury: "Then explain this—why is your Earth perfectly fine if your attacks are that devastating?"
Sisyphus: "Our Earth is protected by the blessings of the gods. They shield the planet from the aftermath of our battles. Also, we're trained to control our power with absolute precision—every punch lands solely on our target without affecting the surroundings."
Tony Stark: "So what you're saying is… you can focus one hundred million nuclear-level punches precisely on a single opponent without any fallout?! That's impossible! What about the laws of energy dispersion?! You're just ignoring physics at this point!"
Sage: "That's because our goal isn't to destroy the target's body, but to shatter their atomic structure. Everything is made of atoms—and true destruction is about disrupting those atoms. As Saints, we concentrate all our power into a single point to break atoms. This allows us to compress all excess energy to a microscopic scale. No matter how intense the force, the range of destruction remains extremely limited."
Bruce Wayne: "Wait, are you serious right now? The microscopic realm operates at scales trillions of times smaller than what we perceive. You can control energy to that degree?! You Saints are terrifying. Wait… does that mean your enemies can do this too?"
Rhadamanthys: "Of course. That's just a basic technique for us."
Natasha Romanoff: "My god… I can perceive atomic structures, but doing what Sage just described is still way out of reach for me. How exactly do you pull that off?!"
Sage: "You're not familiar with our training methods. We cultivate a power called Cosmo. Through years of training, we awaken our Seventh Sense, which allows us to move at light speed and unleash light-speed punches."
Luffy: "Seventh Sense? Is that some kind of organ inside the body?"
Sage: "No—it's a spiritual state, not something physical. It's hard to explain. But when Cosmo is cultivated to the point of awakening the Seventh Sense, it grants access to the speed of light and many other miraculous abilities—like Defteros's dimensional manipulation or Degel's Absolute Zero."
King: "I've heard of the Seventh Sense before. It's a term used in Buddhist self-cultivation. I didn't expect such a concept could grant you this kind of power… and if I recall correctly, Buddhism also mentions an Eighth Sense. So, does that mean you still have room to grow?"
Asmita: "Indeed. If one can awaken the Eighth Sense, they will gain even more unimaginable power."
Jiraiya: "Incredible… how can there be such a vast difference between humans? Is it because of your training methods? Are the Seventh and Eighth Senses achievable only through Cosmo, or can they be reached through other means too?"
Sage: "I'm not familiar with your training systems. In our world, the Seventh Sense is the source of human life. It existed since the mythological era, but gradually faded over time. As Saints, we use Cosmo to rediscover and awaken this latent power that humans originally possessed. But not everyone can reach the Seventh Sense—even among Saints, many spend their entire lives trying and fail."
Ancient One: "If that's the case, then for us to acquire the Seventh Sense, we'd need to have had it dormant within us since ancient times… who knows if early humans truly had it."
Garp: "Oh come on, are you saying we'd need archaeology to find out now?!"
Robin: "At least from what I've read in ancient texts, there's no direct mention of the Seventh Sense."
Luffy: "So that means we probably can't get it then? Aww, what a waste…"
Garp: "Yeah…"
Daigo: "This is insane. Even Dyna Ultraman can move at light speed in space, but throwing punches at light speed… that's something we can't do. What about you, Dan —can your side do that?"
Dan: "No way. Even Ultramen can't unleash hundreds of millions of light-speed punches in a second. That's beyond us."
Gen: "So… does that mean Gold Saints are stronger than Ultramen?!"
Sage: "Not necessarily. I don't know much about the strength of your Ultramen, but from what I've seen of Daigo's Dyna form, those energy beams he fired… even we'd be injured by them."
Goku: "This just gets more exciting! Man, if only we lived in the same universe. So many strong fighters—I'd love to go a few rounds with you! And that precision control you guys have… even if I don't use Cosmo, maybe I could learn to do that too! That way, I could go all out without worrying about destroying the Earth!"
Sage: "That… I don't know. I'm not sure whether your training methods can reach the atomic level."
Goku: "Haha! Once we deal with the blood pool, I'll give it a try!"

Marvel Universe – Kamar-Taj
The Ancient One kept fidgeting with her fan, unable to stop after witnessing Sisyphus's power.
Strange: "Master… is that Gold Saint… stronger than you?"
Strange's blunt question made Mordo and Wong tense immediately.
But the Ancient One didn't seem angry at all.
Ancient One: "Who knows. Without drawing on demonic power, I likely wouldn't be a match for a Gold Saint."
She seemed to speak with calm acceptance.
Ancient One: "Still, their talk of the Seventh Sense is fascinating. That concept exists in our world's Buddhist teachings as well. I don't believe it's a coincidence."
