One Punch Man King Engine

Child Emperor brought King into the primary school research institute.
The research institute was about the size of a football field and was filled with all kinds of scientific and technological instruments.
Various robot components hung on the walls, and many semi-finished robots cluttered the ground.
There was also an open space with several robots of different shapes and sizes and all kinds of high-tech machines used for research.

Tsk, a little brat can have such a high-level research institute.
As expected of the Association’s brain – Child Emperor, a prodigy that is hard to come by in a thousand years!

King looked around with amazement.
Child Emperor knew all kinds of advanced knowledge at such a young age and could even independently develop robots.
There was no one else with this intelligence.
He believed that many parents would sigh regretfully, “Other family’s children.”

Hey, who are Child Emperor’s parents?

King pinched his chin and thought hard about the information about Child Emperor, but unfortunately, he found nothing.

“Oh, so the uncles have arrived.”

At the research institute, four people had arrived earlier.
King recognized none of them, but one or two of them looked familiar, as if he had seen them somewhere.

“Hey, Child Emperor, why did you ask us to come here? Seriously, you’re the one who invited us, but you never tell us your purpose in advance.
You don’t have any sincerity at all.”

Among the four of them, one was wearing a red tank top with large pants, a red boxing helmet, red boxing gloves on his hands, and a gold belt representing a professional boxer’s glory.
The muscles in his body were hard and firm, making the vest bulge up.
His face was full of a valiant aura.

“Oh, 9th Rank B-class Hero Tanktop Boxer.
I sincerely apologize for not telling you the specific details immediately.
The experiment requires secrecy; I hope that you can understand.” Child Emperor shook the lollipop in his hand, smiling mischievously.

“Tanktop Boxer?”

King lowered his head and thought for a while.
Among Heroes Association, there were two big Hero groups.
One was a B-class Hero team formed by Tornado of Terror’s younger sister, Blizzard of Hell.
Blizzard group had many excellent B-class Heroes.
They were known as the biggest Hero team within the Heroes Association.
Other than Blizzard of Hell, the rest of the members of the Blizzard group were all wearing suits.

The other Hero group was formed by the S-class Hero Tanktop Master.
Among Tank Topper Army, all the members wore tanktops as their symbol.
Their other characteristic was that their Hero names would definitely carry the word “Tanktop”, such as Tanktop Master, Tanktop Tiger, and Tanktop Black Hole.

The boxer in front of him was wearing a tank top, and his Hero name has the word “Tanktop”.
He was definitely a Tank Topper Army personnel.
No wonder he was not afraid of Child Emperor when speaking to him.
Firstly, Child Emperor’s age and young appearance made it hard to feel fear.
Secondly, he was backed by Tank Topper Army and Tanktop Master.
He must have felt no need to humble himself to other S-class Heroes.

“Child Emperor, may I ask why you invited us to your research institute? Can you tell us now?”

Another Hero asked.
However, the tone of this Hero was very polite.
It was obvious that he respected Child Emperor, the S-class Hero.

King looked up at the person who spoke.
He saw that the person was thin, had sharp eyes, and wearing a snakeskin suit.
“Sneck? The last-ranked A-class Hero Biting Snake Fist Sneck?”

He smiled slightly when he recognized the familiar face.
He remembered the memory from his previous life.
When Saitama was admitted as a professional Hero, Sneck was the one responsible for educating Saitama with basic knowledge about the professional Heroes.

Speaking of which, he had never met an A-class Hero since his rebirth, even though he had gotten to meet almost all of the S-class Heroes.
This made him think that A-class Heroes are rarer than S-class.
However, he did not expect to meet an A-class Hero here!

“Ah, it’s the last-ranked A-class Hero, Uncle Sneck!” Child Emperor raised her small face and smiled.
“I recently invented an interesting new toy.
I hope to collect experiment data on the toy and discover all the strengths and weaknesses to continue improving it.
Therefore, I choose all the outstanding uncles among the thousands of potential candidates to help me complete the experiment.”

Sneck frowned.
Couldn’t he have refrained from mentioning that I’m “last-ranked?” Just say that I’m an A-class Hero!

Among the four, there was an ordinary staff member of the Heroes Association.
After listening to Child Emperor’s request, he respectfully asked, “Child Emperor, how do you want us to cooperate with your experiment?”

Child Emperor smiled and said, “Well, there is nothing special to pay attention to.
I just want you to try your best to fight my fighting robot using the gadget.
The experiment will be concluded when the robot is knocked down or when you are exhausted.”

“As long as you knock down your fighting robot? It is a piece of cake!” The boxer slammed his hands together.
He glanced sideways at the Hero beside him and said contemptuously, “What do you think, Fast Fist Man?”

“Heh… heh heh…”

The Fast Fist Man was dressed in a white skintight suit, displaying his strong muscles to the fullest.
The word “FIST” was written on the chest of his skintight suit with large letters, indicating his way of attack – fist!

It just so happened to be similar to the way a boxer attacked.
No wonder Tanktop Boxer provoked him.
Unfortunately, Tanktop Boxer was a B-class Hero, and he was only a C-class Hero—and ranked 31st at that.
The difference in strength was too great.
Therefore, he can only laugh dryly at Tanktop Boxer’s provocation.

“Hey, Tanktop Boxer, don’t go too far.” Sneck frowned and looked at Tanktop Boxer’s provocative expression.
He warned, “This is Child Emperor’s research institute.
If you want to cause trouble here, Child Emperor will not mind throwing you out.”

Tanktop Boxer turned at Sneck and muttered, “Tsk, isn’t it just the last A-class Hero? What’s there to be proud of? Sooner or later, I will surpass you.”

“Alright, Child Emperor, I’m in a hurry.
Let’s hurry up and carry out the experiment.” King saw that these people were about to get into an argument and immediately changed the topic.

Don’t joke around.
I’m in a rush to go find Saitama in Z City; I have no time for this argument!

“Okay.” Child Emperor nodded with a smile.
He licked the lollipop and said to Snack and the others, “Wait here for a moment.
I’ll go and activate my fighting robot.
I’ll be back soon.”

He carried his small school bag and walked toward the area where the robots were placed.

“Eh? Who is this guy?”

Sneck and the others finally noticed King.
However, King was wearing a cap to hide his appearance, so they could not recognize him.

“Hey, who are you?” Tanktop Boxer glanced at King a few times and curled his lips.
“Why are you hiding your face, huh? There are only a few people in the Hero circle, yet I don’t know you!”

“Huh?”

King was slightly stunned.
Am I… being provoked?
