《One Punch Of Justice》OPJ Chapter 2 - Ace and Sabo
Advertisement
Makino seemed to see a resplendent soul different from everyone else as she looked at his back.
As Saitama was about to leave the tavern, yet another group of people were happily walking towards the pub.
"Haha, we have finally returned to the East Blue. Makino, quickly take out the wine..."
A red-haired man donning a straw hat greeted Makino with enthusiasm. However, the moment he brushed past Saitama, he experienced an ice-cold piercing sensation in his heart that made it palpitate. His Kenbunshoku Haki began to repeatedly warn him that just now an earth-shaking monster had walked past him. He quickly turned around and got ready for a battle.
However... he was met with the sight of the back of an ordinary-looking person wearing a billowing mantle. Shanks' eyes immediately became dignified as his breathing gradually became deep. As one of the Yonko of the New World, he was easily able to look past the surface and see the hidden truth!
This guy...
Was hiding immense strength!
****************************
After leaving Foosha Village, Saitama ran at breakneck speed through the surrounding forests, hills, and valleys. He was close to the sea. If one is to find their way home, they should always begin by asking in densely populated areas. Saitama was like a hurricane as countless beasts that tried to get in his way, unable to stop him for even a moment.
Finally, after jumping over a cliff, he saw a huge settlement of people that stretched so far that he was unable to determine its borders. There were huge piles of garbage littered throughout the mountain, as well as innumerable people dressed in rags and covered with dirt. Their eyes were like soulless, empty holes, completely lacking the characteristics of living people.
Saitama scratched his head in puzzlement, "This place is like a totally different world..."

Just then, a middle-aged man in unkempt clothing passed through. Saitama hurriedly asked, "Hello, would you perhaps know-"
The man didn't even bother to lift his head, "I don't know, go away!"
Saitama continued to move further after being scorned. While passing through, he saw that everyone here seemed to be living their lives in complete apathy and were completely indifferent to everything except survival. He sighed with helplessness. It seemed like asking these people for help will be useless.
The proprietress had told him to go to the town in the kingdom. So, it should not be a place like this...
As he pondered about it, he soon came upon a thick city wall. Through the barrier inside the city gates, he could see what could only be described as a completely different world in comparison to outside the gates.
He leaped over the wall that was more than a dozen meters high and landed inside the city. While walking around aimlessly, he decided to ask the pedestrians about any information related to Z-City. Unfortunately, he did not manage to get anything helpful.
As he sat in a corner and contemplated his next course of action, a sudden clear sound from above got his attention.
Crack!
Two small figures fell from the sky along with pieces of shattered glass. In the next moment, an angry roar could be heard from the building upstairs.
"Leaving without paying! Catch those two brats quickly!!!"
It was very obvious that the two figures who jumped from the building were thieves who had left without paying for their meals. They efficiently relied on the falling debris and objects to land safely on the ground.
One of the children, who was wearing a shirt printed with the word "violence," laughed proudly and said to the other one wearing a formal dress and a top hat, "Did you see Sabo? I told you as long as we are dexterous while escaping, we could land safely, even from eight floors high."

Sabo pulled at his somewhat crooked top hat while agreeing, "The food here was really delicious, Ace! Let's come back again next time!"
After this, the two little devils prepared to run away. Due to their prior experience, they knew that the public security officer would arrive here very soon with his stick.
"Don't stand in the way, bald uncle!"
Ace and Sabo jumped from the right and left respectively as they rushed over in Saitama's direction, "We are mighty pirates! If you annoy us..."
****************************
Ten seconds later.
Both Ace and Sabo were beaten black and blue, and then, dragged by their collars to the hotel by Saitama. Under the threat of his fist, the two kids unwillingly bowed and apologized to the hotel owner for their actions.
"We are sorry..."
"The total loss is 26 bowls of noodles and the glass window..."
The owner looked at the two little paupers with helplessness and eventually sighed while waving his hand, "Forget it, forget it, I will let this matter go. Just don't do this kind of thing again..."
"Despicable..."
Ace looked at the ordinary-looking bald-headed man next to him, who was responsible for his panda eyes, with discontent, "If it weren't for this fellow, we wouldn't be caught!"
Sabo, who was suffering from a bleeding nose, nodded with indignation, "If we hadn't been anxious and in a hurry to escape back then, we would've never lost!"
"I'm telling you two little rascals, give it a rest already." Saitama standing next to them solemnly said, "It is obvious that you have done a bad thing, yet you dare act like the victims?"
"Peh!"
Ace resentfully stuck out his tongue and said, "Bah, mind your own business!"
Saitama hammered both Ace and Sabo's heads with a "ping" sound effect and sent them flying through the street, planting head-first into the road. He then severely said, "Apologize, earnestly!"
Ace covered his head and said with the corners of his mouth, twitching, "...Sorry"
Sabo wanted to cry but had no tears, "It was clearly Ace who annoyed you... Why did you hit me too..."
After seeing the two children beaten so miserably, the hotel owner's anger dissipated, and he felt better. So, he decided to reward Saitama. "It's fine. I didn't suffer a huge loss, so please let them off the hook. I would also like to thank you for your help. Would you like to have a meal, or perhaps something else?"
"I don't require a meal currently. However, I would like to inquire about a matter from you..."
Saitama waved his hand and let the two little devils go, and then asked the hotel owner, "Have you heard about Z-City or the Hero Association... The contact device given to me by the association doesn't seem to be working. Could you lend me your phone?"
"Phone?!"
The hotel owner was stunned and immediately replied, "Oh! Are you talking about a Den Den Mushi? I can't afford a high-end thing like that... As for the Hero Association and Z-City that you mentioned, I have never heard of them, even in any newspaper..."
"Ah... I see..."
Having confirmed the suspicions in his heart, Saitama sighed. "I seem to have arrived in a completely different world... Also, I don't have a place to sleep for the night and to eat dinner. Should I consider looking for a job?"

Psychotic Death Online
(Side Project for now)In a futuristic alternate reality, the creators of nanotech team up with the VR capsule company to create a capsule where one could stay it in for a year at a time before having to leave. These capsules could be use for rehab and even reconstruction! Eventually, Buzzard, the largest gaming company in the world, created a new VRMMO with 99% realism pending the new capsules, of course the rate dropped to 97% with normal capsules and 90% with the old fashioned visor systems. Unfortunately, the new capsules cost $100,000 and not many people can afford them, either way the new game World of Destiny was a hit with over 110 million subscriptions!Meet our tragic MC Feng Jun, an injured psychopath that simply wants to get his next kill. He has no MO, he doesn't even care if what he kills is an insect let alone a person. He just has to kill every once in awhile to scratch his itch. Up til an injury that left him without a leg, he was able to make do simply killing insects as no one cared and he didn't even have to visit any doctors about it. People just thought he hated bugs! But after his injury he has been suck at his home not being able to do anything! Fortunately he is rich and spends most of his time playing MMOs since normal VRMMOs don't work well with his injury as the realism setting always keeps him with only one leg! But what will he do with a new opportunity to rebuild his leg with nanotech? Knowing he has to spend a year in the game minimum for something like this, he sets a goal to insure he doesn't go crazy (er) without having stuff to kill.This is a VRMMO story where the game is closer to zhan long than royal road with a few twists here and there. The world outside of the game is sci fi and has very little impact at least for the first year due to obvious reasons. No gore or explicit sex in this story, if cursing requires a mature tag I will add it later, this story is at best PG-13. Tragedy is for his circumstances and previous life, the game itself isn't tragic at all as it's just a game more or less.(This story will be put out alongside my main story whenever I feel like it for now, no set schedule at this time)

Theory of Rifts (LitRPG)
You can join my Discord here. Keynes Kid is gifted with a photographic memory and being several months away from receiving Level 1, and a Talent, he finds himself in the center of attention of people who want to shape his Talent. If they can get him an intelligence related Talent, they will hit a jackpot. The Talent Unlocking ceremony finally comes and Keynes Kid receives… Error… Anomaly (What?) His new talent is… useless. Why then does the World Government want Keynes so badly they will silence anyone who knows about his Talent? At the same time... Somewhere in the Universe, ancient beings stir from their slumber, awoken by the system alert and the wall of glaring red warnings. Their greatest fear just manifested and they are hell-bent on erasing it from existence. -------- It is a slow-development story, so you won't find the MC with super powers at the beginning. -------- It is a coming of age story and focuses on a Talent system (in the beginning) with several additions that bring to the table upgrading of a planet’s tier and such (a bit later). There will be quite an amount of rebuilding society as new, unknown resources enter the economy, and a lot of travelling, delving and naturally, unlocking the secrets of the Universe. As for the setting, the story starts in XXI century, which technology-wise isn't much different from what we have now, but it is enhanced by magic associated with Talents. This allowed the humankind to colonize the solar system, but the technology that allows for interstellar travel doesn't exist (yet). Because it’s my first attempt at LitRPG, please be forgiving but constructive. I hope you will enjoy the story! --- Cover by Daniel Gembus https://www.artstation.com/daniel_gembus instagram.com/danielgembus
