I get that ONE wants to have more scenes of these fun characters bouncing off each other but I would've set some beats aside for maybe a bonus chapter. Those already tend the be my favorite parts of the Murata-collab version because they're by necessity focused stories that have their own pace. You're discouraged from narrative overindulgence when you're trying to fit a whole story, plus punchline, in a smaller package.

They either need to evaporate it, or transport it to space or something. Or Maybe Pig God can use a nice tall glass to go with his spaghetti? But we’ve only seen him eat impossible things, so maybe this would just make him drown. Pig God was still around and underway after saving those mercenaries right? Or am I misremembering?

I don't know, I thought it might be reasonable to believe that Saitama might have trouble defeating the entire ocean. Just trying to add to the discussion, not upset anyone. But since you feel so strongly about this, I'll let you spit in my face and call me a loser if my prediction ends up being wrong...

It just says he punches once, any outcome is possible. If you survive, he can never punch you again. There's no limit to kicks though.

Large Evil Liquid isn't dead, because it retreated into a tiny form, which Saitama will keep in an aquarium as another member of his growing hero-harem.

Considering the level of destruction he achieves, Saitama could probably boil the ocean with the heat generated by him serious clapping his hands

I think the ocean died because its eyes were separated and they have to be connected by water or die. Saitama split the ocean so they weren't and now it's dead.

Ocean Evil Water is defeated, because it only reacts to beings he can detect as powerful and hostile and after Saitama's punch, its senses were overloaded to the point that it can't sense (and thus attack) anything less powerful than Saitama. So Ocean Evil Water turned to Ocean Normal Water, just with bunch of freaky eyes floating somewhere in depths.

I am slightly annoyed that there's an in-universe explanation for why Metal Bat can keep up other than just fighting spirit, but it does make sense. Just feels like pandering to power scaling dorks. Metal Bat fuckin owns though and so does his bff Garou

I wonder if in the upcoming volume we'll get a redrawn chapter that better sets up Sage Centipede. I think there will have to be a redraw that explains how Oorochi turns into the goo that eventually fuses with Psykos, so it might make sense to introduce him there so that his appearance doesn't seem quite so out of nowhere. It would be a bit like how the Saitama vs Oorochi redraw set up the lore of God and the sacrifice.

I don't really think so tho? The centipedes have already been shown to have always been hibernating in the earth and a new one just pops up. The emergence of a sage centipede made perfect sense to me in that context. Like if they kill this guy and then ANOTHER one popped out of the moon or the earth's core or whatever, I'd be unsurprised.

Yeah I agree that it's not completely out of nowhere, but it feels like there is something missing. His emergence seemed to be connected to Oorochi being mushed up at the alter site. Story-wise, I personally find it more engaging when you as the reader can be "keeping score" with the various players on the board, which was so great during the cadres fight. So a new bad guy feels less impactful somehow.

And it continues to be true, Bang and Bomb cracking all of Elder Centipede's exoskeleton, them fighting Rover once Fubuki eliminated the strains of aging from the both of them, here with One-Shotter and Gearspar taking out this new Centipede's eyes together. It's rad as hell, it's like Dragon Ball Z/ Digimon fusion!

It opens the door for silly speculation. What if he fights with Saitama? or King!? I don't honestly care technically but the idea he can also essentially gain power from... friends(?) is very suiting for him.

What are you guys talking about? How is it somehow mutually exclusive being more powerful because of fighting spirit and two people lifting each other up? Metal Bat gets his individual power from fighting spirit but his individual power works well with Garou's individual power to make a team stronger than its parts.
