Long Summary[]
Suiko visits Suiryu at the Hero Association Hospital while he sleeps. After being teased by his little sister, Suiryu wakes up, and they engage in a conversation. Suiko is taken aback to learn that her brother is genuinely committed to becoming a hero and helping others.
Tatsumaki's vast psychic barrier around Z-City begins to dissipate, allowing a medical helicopter to assist those trapped inside. Tanktop Master and Fubuki observe Tatsumaki in the sky; Fubuki feels relieved to see her sister is still alive. Even after witnessing Tatsumaki's immense psychic ability once more, Tanktop Master expresses his aspiration to eventually surpass her.
Bang is surprised to see the typically selfish Class S members, including Tatsumaki, cooperating, indicating their growth. He later discusses Garou with Bomb, who suggests that Garou might have died inside the Monster Association Headquarters. However, Bang insists that Garou is not someone who dies easily and advises his brother to remain vigilant. Soon, Puri-Puri Prisoner, Superalloy Darkshine, Atomic Samurai, Fubuki, and Tanktop Master join Bang and Bomb. Atomic Samurai inquires about Flashy Flash, who is still trapped in the Monster Association base. Tatsumaki then psychically informs Fubuki that Flash was not present when she penetrated the ground.
Homeless Emperor gazes at the severely injured Zombieman, contemplating that Gyoro Gyoro and Orochi may have been defeated. Suddenly, Sweet Mask emerges from the smoke created by an explosion from Homeless Emperor's energy spheres, attempting to strike him. Before he can reach Homeless Emperor, Sweet Mask is intercepted mid-air by Black Sperm, who bursts from the ground. Fuhrer Ugly then appears in a similar manner, frightening the top-ranked A-Class hero with his grotesque appearance. Overcome by fear of ugly individuals, Sweet Mask screams and is brutally punched in the face by Fuhrer Ugly, deforming him severely before being torn apart and discarded.
After defeating Sweet Mask, Fuhrer Ugly steps on Zombieman's regenerating body, taunting Child Emperor as he prepares to punch, but is interrupted by a massive orb launched by Homeless Emperor. The orb detonates, creating a huge explosion that nearly engulfs Atomic Samurai, Iaian, Pig God, Tanktop Master, and Fuhrer Ugly. Atomic Samurai attempts to reach Child Emperor, who seems to have been caught in the blast, but receives no response just as Evil Natural Water emerges from the ground. Iaian quickly recognizes the danger and readies his sword in fear, while Pig God and Tanktop Master narrowly escape being devoured by Gums, who bursts forth from the debris.
Homeless Emperor, Fuhrer Ugly, and Black Sperm bicker among themselves but ultimately agree to collaborate as they set out to confront the disoriented heroes.
