Inside the control room, lzargard, Groribas, and Geryuganshoop stood frozen in place, their hearts pounding as they stared at the figure outside the spaceship.
Their eyes t briefly, and in that silent exchange, they all understood the sa thing.
This was not an opponent they could fight.
"What is he doing?"
"He doesn't look like he's attacking."
The initial panic slowly eased. The figure remained motionless in the vacuum of space, showing no signs of aggression.
They did not know that Lucien simply had no intention of damaging the spaceship.
After all, it already belonged to him.
He planned to use it to store food and slowly wear Saitama down.
"Lord Boros."
The heavy doors slid open as the sound of armor echoed through the control room. Boros stepped forward, his single eye locking onto Lucien through the transparent barrier.
He could feel it, the imnse and restrained power hidden within that body.
For the first ti in years, his blood stirred.
It had been far too long since he had encountered soone worthy.
"Lord Boros, he may be the one ntioned in the prophecy."
Geryuganshoop spoke with respect, his voice steady despite the tension.
"Open the hatch."
Boros gave no further comnt. His gaze never left Lucien as he moved toward the exit.
Monts later, he stepped out into space.
The two faced each other, separated by only a few ters.
"You are strong."
Boros's voice carried excitent, his golden earrings swaying slightly as his muscles tightened.
Lucien's expression remained calm.
"You're strong too. If you want a real fight, follow . Not here."
Without waiting, Lucien shot forward, transforming into a streak of golden-white light, heading away from Earth.
Boros smiled.
"Protecting your planet, interesting. That ans you can fight without holding back."
He turned slightly.
"Geryuganshoop, follow us."
Then he vanished in a flash, chasing after Lucien.
Inside the ship, Geryuganshoop imdiately issued commands.
"Track their path. Prepare spatial jump."
The massive vessel gathered energy, space twisting around it before it disappeared entirely.
Far away, in the cold expanse of space, Saturn lood.
A giant planet with a volu far exceeding Earth, its most striking feature being the brilliant rings surrounding it, ford from countless fragnts of ice and rock.
Two streaks of light cut through the darkness, racing toward it.
Lucien arrived first.
He hovered above the planet, glancing briefly at the vast rings before turning his attention forward.
Monts later, Boros and the spaceship followed.
Lucien said nothing. He simply tilted his head slightly toward the planet below, then descended, his body blazing like a cot as he entered the atmosphere.
Boros followed imdiately.
The two figures tore through the skies and slamd into the surface with overwhelming force.
A violent sandstorm surged outward, stretching endlessly across the landscape.
They hovered above the ground, facing each other from a short distance, wind whipping through their hair and clothes.
"I spent twenty years traveling the universe for this mont," Boros said, his voice filled with anticipation. "To find soone I can fight without restraint. You qualify."
Lucien raised his hand and curled a finger toward him.
"I've been waiting."
A deafening crack split the air.
Boros vanished, reappearing instantly in front of Lucien, his fist already in motion.
Lucien did not dodge.
The punch landed cleanly.
His body bent slightly before being launched backward at extre speed. Massive mountains shattered upon impact, and his feet carved a deep trench across the surface before he ca to a halt.
Before he could recover, Boros appeared above him, hands clasped together as he slamd downward.
The ground within thousands of kiloters ruptured violently, forming a massive crater.
Energy surged again as Boros twisted and drove a powerful kick into Lucien's abdon. The land collapsed further, forming a deeper abyss as Lucien's feet sank into the ground, absorbing the force.
Explosions echoed across the terrain.
Lucien stepped out from the dust.
His clothes repaired themselves instantly. His hair shifted slightly, but his body remained unhard.
There was not even a drop of blood.
He had not used any defensive abilities.
He had taken everything head-on.
Lucien narrowed his eyes slightly.
Perhaps he had underestimated himself.
"I knew it," Boros laughed, his voice filled with excitent. "You are exactly what I've been searching for."
He attacked again, his leg sweeping through the air with explosive force.
Lucien calmly raised his arm, blocking the strike.
At the sa ti, his other hand moved.
A subtle motion, almost imperceptible.
A sharp cracking sound followed.
Boros's armor shattered.
His body twisted violently as blood burst from his mouth, the impact sending a shockwave tearing through the atmosphere behind him.
Lucien stepped back slightly, giving him space.
Boros coughed, veins bulging across his face, his eye wide with both shock and exhilaration.
Fragnts of armor fell away.
He straightened slowly, wiping the blood from his mouth as his aura surged upward.
The raging storm around them was forced to disperse.
"This armor suppresses my power," Boros said, his voice deepening. "Now I can finally fight properly."
Lightning crackled around him. His pink hair stood on end as his presence intensified dramatically.
Lucien remained silent.
He simply lifted his hand again and beckoned.
He knew this was only the beginning.
Boros still had stronger forms.
Even now, this level was not enough.
A flash of light erupted.
Lucien was struck again, sent flying across the surface.
Before he landed, Boros appeared above him, slamming his foot down like a falling star.
The impact shattered the terrain across an enormous region. Mountains rose and collapsed instantly, while deep fissures spread like a web across the land.
Boros did not stop.
His fists rained down relentlessly, each strike powerful enough to destroy celestial bodies.
Lucien's body was driven deeper into the ground, taking every blow without resistance.
From space, the changes on Saturn beca visible.
A massive crater expanded rapidly, distorting the planet's surface.
Boros laughed wildly.
Grabbing Lucien by the head, he dragged him across the ground at terrifying speed, carving a deep trench in seconds.
With a final roar, he hurled him away.
Explosions followed in succession, forming towering clouds as the surrounding storm was blown apart.
Boros descended slowly, breathing heavier now.
His gaze locked onto the center of the dust cloud, burning with intensity.
Lucien stepped out calmly.
He brushed off the dirt from his clothes as if nothing had happened.
"This level is still not enough."
His voice was steady, almost bored.
Boros's eye widened slightly before his expression twisted into excitent.
"Then I'll go further."
He clenched his fists.
"Energy Release."
Power erupted from his body.
Lightning spread across his form as his aura surged to a completely new level.
The planet itself trembled.
