One Punch Man: Thunder Shazam - Chapter 309

c309 No. 5 on the newcomer list

“Go and have a look, the newcomer list has changed.”

“Really? What changes can there be? For so long, the three of them have been at the forefront. Is there any newcomer who can make the top ten list?”

“Hahaha, yes, I heard that a newcomer has made it into the top ten list. Now there will be something interesting to watch.”

“Tsk, what does it have to do with you if someone makes it into the top ten list? What interesting thing can you watch?”

“You don’t even know this. The top five newcomers will be organized to fight against each other. This newcomer just happened to be ranked fifth, so he will also go to the fight this time.”

“Really? Then I have to go and have a look this time.”

Leto stood in the distance and listened to these people talking. He didn’t know what they were talking about, but he was also very curious about the newcomer list, so he went over to take a look.

But he was shocked. On the newcomer list, the fifth place was written with his name, Leto.

“Who is this Leto? Has anyone seen him?”

“I don’t know. It feels like he just appeared.”

Some people began to talk about it. There are very few people who know Leto here, and it can be said that there are basically no people who know Leto.

After all, Leto had not been here for a long time, and had not met many people, so it was normal that he was not recognized.

Just as Leto was still watching, he felt a pair of eyes looking at him.

The person looking at him was No. 9, who seemed to be motioning him to go over.

After Leto found No. 9, No. 9 said nothing and asked Leto to follow him back to the office.

“Is there anything?” Leto felt that No. 9 had something to tell him.

“Did you see the newcomer list?” No. 9 asked Leto.

“I saw it, but I didn’t expect why I was on the list.” Leto was also puzzled. How was this newcomer list calculated?

“Show me your right hand.” No. 9 said.

Leto spread out his palm, and the number 532 on it was seen by No. 9. Although No. 9 was a little shocked, he was not very shocked. After all, there were still some newcomers who were stronger than Leto, so he was not so shocked.

But 532 demon heads in a short period of time was indeed a lot. It can be said that Leto exceeded more than 98% of the newcomers on the human platform.

“It’s normal for you to be in the top five with the number of demons you killed. If you are given some more time, maybe your ranking can move up a bit.”

“What’s the use of this ranking?” Leto didn’t know.

“Of course, you will always get benefits if you contribute to the human race, but the benefits are always in the hands of a few people, and you are now equivalent to a minority.” No. 9 looked at Leto with appreciation. He felt that Leto must have eaten the super bead. His master was right in judging people.

“What benefits?” Leto asked.

No. 9 shook his head, “Let’s talk about the benefits later. Let’s talk about what you are going to do next. Originally, you didn’t have to participate in the crusade, but because your ranking has risen today, it’s time for the crusade, so you have to represent the top five to crusade this time.”

“What crusade, why do I encounter so many things?” Leto was a little puzzled. Why did he suddenly have to crusade again?

“With great power comes great responsibility.” No. 9 stood up and walked around Leto twice. “The crusade is to crusade against the demons. Our biggest enemy at present is the demons. There will be a crusade every year. This crusade is recognized by all tribes. At a specific time, we will be teleported to the same world, and then a one-on-one crusade will be fought and fought in the wild. The demons will also send the top five or ten people on the newcomer list to participate in the crusade, so you may face demons stronger than you. This trip is very dangerous.”

Leto understood. Isn’t this just putting people on a ring to fight? Crusade, crusade, what the hell.

A one-on-one life-and-death battle, this is called crusade?

No. 9 saw Leto’s thoughts, but he didn’t say anything, but said: “You are a newcomer this time. Although there will be many newcomers who will come to the human platform after you, we don’t want newcomers of your strength to fall in the crusade, so the platform will give you five newcomers a super bead.”

“Another super bead?” Leto was a little surprised. He hadn’t used his one yet, so why did he get another one?

“Don’t you want it?” No. 9 glanced at Leto.

“Yes, can I not have this thing?” Leto would not be so stupid as to refuse the Super Pearl.

No. 9 thought that Leto had tasted the Super Pearl and had tasted the sweetness.

“You have the communicator, right? I will contact you when the time comes. You go with the other newcomers before you.” No. 9 indicated that Leto could leave now, and that he had said everything he wanted to say.

Leto was indeed leaving, and he had to go to Lucci to get the Super Pearl, so that he would have three Super Pearls.

Lucci was in his own territory, that is, his Lucci Alliance.

Leto easily found out where Lucci was and immediately came over.

“Stop, who are you looking for?” A man with an elephant head blocked Leto’s way at the door.

“I’m looking for Lucci.” Leto said calmly.

“Wait here.” The man with the elephant head ran in immediately.

But it didn’t take long for the elephant head to rush out and tell Leto that he could go in.

Leto was led to a big door, and the man indicated that it was Lucci inside, and then left.

Leto opened the door without knocking and walked in. At this time, Lucci was leaning on the sofa with his eyes closed.

Lucci did not open his eyes after Leto came in, but he said: “Don’t you know how to knock on the door?”

“I’m not here to be a guest. I’m here to get my stuff.” Leto won’t be polite to Lucci anymore. Since this guy has sent people to deal with him, why should he be nice to him?

“What do I have here that belongs to you?” Lucci opened his eyes this time and stared at Leto.

“You’re asking even though you know it. I’m here to get the Super Pearl. Krillin should have told you.”

“Hahaha, Leto, you’re really brave. You come to my chassis to get the Super Pearl. What do you think this is?” Lucci’s tone became low, and he said to the back: “Krillin, get out.”

“Boss, you’re looking for me.” Krillin walked out of the back corridor, terrified.

“Tell me, what’s going on with the Super Pearl?” Lucci knocked on the sofa with one hand.

“No, Leto, go back. There’s no Super Pearl you want here.” Krillin was confident this time, and he wouldn’t be as trembling as last time, because Lucci was here.

“Oh? Krillin, have you forgotten how you begged me? You said you would get me the super beads and I could just come and get them when I came back. Why are you saying this to me now? Do you think I’m easy to talk to?”

Leto’s words made Krillin sweat. This was something he didn’t want to say, but Leto said it all.

As expected, Lucci’s eyes immediately fell on Krillin, and his face was a little gloomy.
