Terrible Tornado whipped her head around, her emerald eyes revealing gravity and wariness.
Her gaze was locked tightly onto the source of that terrifying Intimidation.
The strongest man on earth, KING.
That engine-like roar was emanating from that man's chest.
According to rumors, once the "Emperor Engine" starts, it means KING has completely entered battle mode.
Any creature within his attack range would be reduced to ash in an instant.
Terrible Tornado's expression turned completely cold; her previous composure vanished, replaced by extreme vigilance.
She subconsciously ramped up her Psychic Power to a state of alert, forming a visible emerald-green barrier around her.
At this moment, she stared intently at KING and said, word by word:
"What is it, KING."
"Are you going to interfere in the business between me and Fubuki as well?"
Facing Terrible Tornado's gaze, which seemed almost ready to devour people, Lin Mo finally made a move.
He slowly pulled his hands out of his pockets and took a heavy step forward.
"Thud!"
The roar of the Emperor Engine intensified abruptly, and the ground beneath his feet let out a dull groan in response.
A heavier and more domineering pressure crashed down, causing the emerald-green Psychic Power barrier around Terrible Tornado to even warp.
Lin Mo looked up, his deep eyes reflecting Terrible Tornado's figure.
"Originally, I didn't want to get involved in the affairs between you two sisters."
His voice was low and calm.
"It is indeed difficult for outsiders to judge family matters. But..."
Lin Mo's tone shifted, adding a hint of firmness.
"Dragging others into it is not acceptable."
His gaze swept over the members of the Blizzard Group, who were struggling to stand despite their serious injuries, using their bodies to shield Fubuki.
"You talk about crippling others at every turn, even wanting to turn a group of heroes fighting for their convictions into cripples..."
He locked his gaze back onto Terrible Tornado's cold, pretty face; his tone remained calm, yet it contained a chilling intensity that made one's heart tremble.
"I cannot ignore this kind of overstepping."
Upon hearing these words, Terrible Tornado's expression turned dark to the extreme.
She snorted coldly, her green curly hair rising due to her anger.
The green light around her surged again, compressing the surrounding air until it emitted sonic booms.
"Overstepping?"
Terrible Tornado retorted disdainfully:
"KING, I thought a strong individual like you would share the same mindset as me and be able to understand the loneliness and responsibility of the strong."
"Don't you think that this bunch of trash who only hold people back can't even be considered heroes?"
"I'm just helping Fubuki clear away obstacles!"
If anyone else were standing before her, Terrible Tornado wouldn't have said so much; she would have already blasted them with Psychic Power.
However, the one standing before her now was KING.
That beam of light piercing heaven and earth, that terrifying energy fluctuation that seemed capable of shattering the stars...
Even she, who stood at the pinnacle of psychic abilities, felt a profound sense of powerlessness in the face of that strength.
She had to admit that in terms of pure destructive power and explosive force, this man known as the "strongest man on earth" was indeed above her.
If she really started a war with KING here...
Terrible Tornado gritted her teeth; she did not have the certainty of victory.
Furthermore, if she truly angered this man and made him use that move, everyone would be finished.
Reason told her that taking a step back now and giving KING some face was the safest choice.
"..."
Terrible Tornado's fingers trembled slightly, and the Psychic Power she had gathered showed signs of dissipating.
But just at this moment, she caught a glimpse of Fubuki in the distance.
Her younger sister, who was looking at KING with a complicated expression.
"It's like this again..."
The anger in Terrible Tornado's heart ignited once more.
From childhood to now, Fubuki had always been like this—weak and incompetent.
Even when bullied, she couldn't bring herself to teach others a lesson, and every time, she had to rely on her older sister to step in and solve it.
If she didn't cut off this weakness, Fubuki would never be able to truly become strong!
Besides, she was the older sister!
She was the S-Class Rank 2, Terrible Tornado!
Even KING had no right to change the way she protected her sister!
If she backed down just because the other party was strong, what right did she have to call herself the "strongest" psychic?
"Since that's the case..."
Terrible Tornado took a deep breath, and her previously hesitant gaze instantly became incomparably sharp.
She waved her hand violently, and a violent Psychic Power surged into the sky, tearing the clouds in the sky to shreds.
"Then there's no other way."
Terrible Tornado slowly ascended into the air, looking down at KING from above.
Since there was no room for negotiation, she would let her strength do the talking!
"I've long wanted to experience the reputation of the so-called 'strongest man on earth'!"
The moment her words fell, the air across the entire battlefield was instantly ignited.
Two completely different yet equally terrifying auras clashed intensely in mid-air.
On one side was KING's domineering and unparalleled Emperor Intimidation.
On the other side was Terrible Tornado's violent and raging Psychic Power storm.
The battle was imminent.
Caught in the gap between these two forces, the members of the Blizzard Group, who had just been on the verge of a fight, now felt the pressure ease slightly.
Eyelash and Mountain Ape exchanged a look, immediately stepped forward, and carefully helped Fubuki, who was lying at the bottom of the pit, to stand up.
"Leader, are you alright?"
"I'm not in much trouble."
Fubuki, having been helped up, looked at the two figures confronting each other in the distance; her heart was in turmoil, filled with unspeakable, complex emotions.
She was relieved that her companions were saved, yet felt incomparably worried about the impending battle.
Are my sister and Mr. KING going to fight?
One is her own sister, who possesses absolute power and has kept her living in her shadow since childhood.
The other is her benefactor who gave her guidance and helped her find her path forward.
Between these two people standing at the pinnacle of heroes, who is actually stronger?
On the other side of the battlefield, Black Sperm, sitting on Rover, curled his lip in disdain.
He admitted that the short, green curly-haired one was indeed very strong; even during the Monster Association era, the number of executives who could go toe-to-toe with her could be counted on one hand.
But...
Black Sperm secretly glanced at the man who only had to stand there to make the world change color.
Compared to this monster, that short one was completely outmatched.
"Tch, seeking your own death."
Black Sperm silently passed judgment on Terrible Tornado in his heart, then adjusted to a more comfortable position, preparing to watch the show.
Meanwhile, Saitama, standing on the sidelines, still had an expressionless look.
He scratched his bald head, watching all of this silently, not knowing what he was thinking.
Under the gaze of everyone, Lin Mo looked at Terrible Tornado, who had made up her mind to fight, and slowly nodded.
He knew that words could no longer solve the problem.
For a person as extremely paranoid as Terrible Tornado, only overwhelming power could calm her down.
"Then come."
"Terrible Tornado."
