I have become stronger, but also shorter [comprehensive]

After a serious discussion, Saiki Kusuo's nickname was successfully changed from "fool" to "nerd".

The person who came up with these two nicknames definitely didn't think for more than two seconds. In order to let the boy with superpowers who was set off to be extremely normal fit into the queue of "short" and "bald", it was really——

No.

It cannot be described as "good intentions and hard work" against conscience.

It's just perfunctory and insincere.

The reason given by the person who took the nickname is that this nickname is more suitable for Kusuo boy himself, especially referring to the appearance of the two unknown objects on his head, which is particularly dull...

Saiki Kusuo: "Okay, there's no need to go on."

The teenage boy folded his arms around his chest and stared directly at the adult duo with sharp eyes that were blocked by the glasses, but he was still able to convey a sufficiently compelling edge.

His figure seemed to be elongated from this, and he became even taller.

Yes.

In front of these two friends who met only after a bad luck, he, who was actually the youngest, had to be set off to be extremely mature.

The combined age of those two men has exceeded the terrifying thousands of years old (Saitama: "Then what, I'm still very young, I'm only in my twenties, I blame Eric for getting me!"), and sometimes they are too naive amazing.

Note: Especially when you quarrel over trivial matters.

In order to keep himself clean for a while, Saiki Kusuo did not resist the nickname incident any more, and responded passively with silence after hehe, which was equivalent to acquiescing, calling them whatever they liked.

His original intention was to save time and omit useless arguments.

However, the witty and clever superpowers probably overlooked the most critical issue.

In other words, the default of the external number is only the first step.

The moment he had the thought of "let's do whatever you want" in his heart - he was doomed to embark on a road of no return.

From this moment on, Saiki Kusuo officially merged into the trio of "Short, Baldy, and Idiot".

Even if I realized it after the fact, I actually unknowingly responded to the complaint that I used to "don't even think about forming a stupid trio with them". At that time, it was too late to try to break away with a strong attitude.

It is destined that the teenager with superpowers can only board this thief ship with a distinctive and unusual painting style.

From then on, it was normal for the three human beings to be disassembled separately, but they became inexplicably harmonized when they were put together. They officially met and began to talk about cross talk, no, it began to belong to their unique journey.

……

——The proposal of camping, which seems to be very common, was first mentioned by Saitama.

He didn't say anything, but he felt that forming a group of three was something worth celebrating. Speaking of celebrating, the three of them should go out and play together, and cultivate their relationship by the way.

forgive him.

This is the excitement in the heart of an empty-nest youth who has had no friends since he was a child, and suddenly has two good friends, which makes him want to move uncontrollably.

Although, the reaction of his friends was very flat at first:

"What? Camping? That's something kids like to play, right? We didn't bring any kids this time. It's boring. Why don't we lie down on the roof of Qi Mu's house and take a nap."

"I'm not interested. I've visited most of the dangerous places on the planet. Don't tell me you plan to ask us to go camping in the park. Isn't it? That's fine, let's play games at home."

Saitama: "I said——Your attitude towards life is very wrong? Can you stop being lifeless and be more positive!"

One wants to take a nap, the other wants to play games, and the man who insists on exercising every day thinks this is not good for his friends who are pretending to stay in a [-]-square-meter home without leaving home.

He felt that he had the responsibility to keep Eric and Kusuo active, in case one day when he came back after running [-] kilometers, he found that one big (mental age) and one small (real age) fell into hibernation spontaneously.

"What do you think of me? How could there be such a mechanism as hibernation?"

Of course Eric would refute.He just likes to lie on a high place and bask in the sun.

However, the sun is rare in winter, and the weather is getting colder. Lying on the roof of the building can only get cold wind and no sunshine. It is better to lie in the house comfortably.

He and Saitama are now resident in Saiki Kusuo's home, which has a fireplace.

Note that it is a stove, not the kotatsu that Eric had been jealous of.

This thing does not have a bottomless dark space that is covered as if you sit in it, as long as you sit not far from it, you can feel the warm wind blowing.

After blowing for a long time, the chill in the house will dissipate, and the whole person will slowly feel comfortable.

Therefore, Eric spends less time going to the top of the building and spends more time indoors—the number of times Saitama sees his eyelids slightly closed and seems to be asleep has increased!

I can't see it, I can't think of it.

Eric himself used ice, and it looked cold to people, but unexpectedly he was afraid of the cold...

Oh no, correct me.

It's not that I'm afraid of the cold, how is this possible.

It's just that when he arrived at this time, he was affected by a certain habit in the bones of human beings in his childhood, and the sleepy bug climbed up the corner of his eye from an inexplicable place.

"Who said—"

"I saw Kusuo and I saw it, and it's useless to refute. That's the fact. Okay, you can continue talking."

Eric: "..."

The silver-haired boy expressed his disdain to argue with them about such trivial matters, and forcibly cut off the topic related to the stove.

but.

He still seems to be convinced by Saitama.

Because the world is in winter, it’s boring to go out, and it’s even more boring when it’s cold. Why don’t you go for a few laps outside where the spring flowers are blooming and find something “novel” to do.

The "novelty" here has a special label to highlight its importance.

"Camping" in an ordinary world with nothing special obviously doesn't meet the "novelty" standard, and the three people whose force value is at the peak of human beings probably don't have much interest.

Therefore, Saitama suggested that Eric take them to explore a strange world.

It not only guarantees Eric's need for sunshine (Eric: "Why do you say that so that I want to beat someone up."), but also satisfies Saiki Kusuo's pursuit of new things. The next wonderful travel notes with twists and turns——

"I have a question."

"you say!"

"Are you [-]% sure that the world you're going to just happens to be in spring?"

"Uh, this..."

"And, can you be [-]% sure that the world you go to is novel, instead of having an ordinary world?"

"..."

"Look, I'm not sure, are I?"

Unfortunately, the junior high school student with the nickname of "idiot" opened his mouth, and his words turned into sharp arrows, stunned a man full of loopholes into speechless, and almost pierced his heart.

However, being able to stand tenaciously under the slashing from reality is a unique skill of adults who have set foot in society.

Under such provocations, Saitama was still able to struggle and quibble with his eyes open without blinking: "What, what did I say? What did I just say? Sorry, I forgot. Yes, what I said is , Eric - aren't you going to look for your little brother?"

Eric: "Huh?"

Saitama: "Brother, brother, the youngest one!"

Eric: "Oh."

The youngest brother here refers to the intuitive boy, Kim Fulishi, who seems to have been forgotten by everyone.

At the beginning, when the world where dreams and reality were connected was on the verge of shattering, Saiki Kusuo removed everyone except himself, Eric, and Saitama, including Jin.

Logically speaking, the people thrown out should all be in the same place, and it is impossible to miss anyone individually.

But reality is so strange.

When Eric and Saitama went out, they counted around, no, counted again, and found that there was one person missing.

The one missing is none other than Kim Freesh.

Even if he grabs Saiki Kusuo and asks him now, Saiki Kusuo can't tell if he made a mistake and left Jin alone in another place - he wouldn't make such a low-level mistake.

But the person just disappeared, and he couldn't find it after searching for a long time.

Ok……

In this way, it seems that there is only the possibility that Eric found after a flash of inspiration.

Similar to Saitama's situation, Jin somehow came to the ruins under the sea from his own world.

Unlike Eric, they have the ability to cross space like a cheating device, and the reason why they travel through the world is still unknown.

Therefore, it is not ruled out here that Jin reenacted the experience of suddenly traveling through another world, and he once again went to an unknown other world.

There are so many parallel worlds, dense and scattered like the stars in the night sky, even if Eric wants to find them, he doesn't know that it will take tens of thousands of years to find them.

"If you look for it, you have to find it."

"I believe that you have such a deep fate, you will be able to find it easily!"

Eric: "Tsk."

Needless to say, Saitama was still trying to make excuses. He was calm on the surface at this time, but the sweat behind his bald head had already exposed him.

Eric stared at him.

Saitama stared at him too.

Being stared at meaningfully by these two guys with the same eyes - even the second strongest man in the world will feel a lot of pressure!

"Ok."

"what?"

"If you want to go, just go, just say no, if you have to go around in circles like this."

"... Eric!"

Saitama's eyes suddenly changed, as if there were tears of emotion flickering in them.

He may still be thinking: Ah, this is Eric, my good friend!I knew, after Eric had done his usual contraption, he would—

"That boy Jin has been lost for so long, it's really unreasonable not to look for him."

Saitama: "What, didn't you go because of me?"

Eric: "You're not my lost brother. Even if you are really lost, it's fine to leave you wherever you want."

Saitama: "Tell you Eric, I'm hurt!"

Eric (indifferent): "Oh."

Saitama: "Wow ah ah ah-"

coming.

The two started again.

The petty disputes that must have occurred every two or three days reappeared, and it was not late at all.

Saiki Kusuo chose to sit and read manga by himself.

Now he has picked up the comics again, and today he opened the latest issue of Detective O Nan.

Unsurprisingly, there is no new progress in the main plot, but there is a daily episode in which a super popular phantom thief makes a cameo appearance.

I don't know if it's because of the author's own nightmares, but an unknown frame is inexplicably stuffed into the comics.

The painting is about a strange nightmare that Phantom Thief had one day—dreaming that he was being chased and beaten by basketballs, tennis balls, and ghosts that were not balls. After waking up, his heart trembled when he saw spherical objects, leaving a deep impression on him. The psychological shadow and so on...

"Okay, Kusuo, don't look at it, let's go!"

It seemed that they had finally reached an agreement, no more pointless quarrels, and a concerted effort to deal with the espers who read comics without changing their expressions.

They took off Saiki Kusuo's manga book, clasped the arm of the sitting esper, and dragged him down from the bedroom on the second floor in reverse. When passing by the living room, they followed him politely Mrs. Saiki said goodbye:

"Let's go out and play."

Mrs. Qi Mu: "Oh! Do you want to leave without dinner?"

"No, no, no, we plan to go camping outside, play for a few days and then come back - come back and bring you special products."

Mrs. Qi Mu was very happy: "Okay, okay~"

She just watched the two suspicious men drag her son to the entrance, put his shoes on, and continued to drag him out—just like that.

Mrs. Qi Mu is indeed the mother of a person with extraordinary superpowers, and her brain circuit is also quite different.

Not only did she not stop it, which was almost an act of kidnapping, she even came to the door and waved her hand off: "Everyone, have a good journey~ Eric, Saitama, please take care of my Xiaoxiong~"

Suspicious people: "Well, leave it to us."

So, the unlovable youngest son of Qi Mu's family was dragged to another world just like that, and couldn't come back for a while.

His biological parents are happy with this... Cough, they miss Xiaoxiong a little bit, but they also think about the sweet world of two people without children to disturb them.

"You were abandoned by your family with great ease, Kusuo."

"Yes, I already know."

"It's okay, you have me and Eric as two good friends, you won't be lonely."

Saiki Kusuo said, "Yes, I won't be lonely."

——But there will be countless troubles born out of thin air, and God knows what strange things will happen.

Here's the thing.

At the moment of being dragged away by the two, an ominous picture of the future flashed in the mind of the teenager with superpowers.

Still passing by in a hurry, fragmentary fragments flashed, and the specific content in the picture is the most iconic building.

The background seems to be a rather stylish western-style building.

The building stood tall in the green grass, and it looked open, surrounded by dense forests.

There was a group of children in white clothes holding hands and laughing and playing on the grass. Next to them, there seemed to be a woman who looked like a nun.

Pure white.

Bright flowers looming among the meadows.

The lovely faces of those children with big smiles.

And, the woman watching them from the side couldn't help but smile...

There is nothing wrong with such a picture, but it looks beautiful and picturesque, which makes people feel peaceful.

However, the short image flashed by quickly, and Saiki Kusuo, who received this information, did not feel quiet and graceful at all.

I don't know the reason, but the person with superpowers who has seen the sky collapse and the earth is not changed by it, feels inexplicably palpitating for the "future" that has not yet happened and does not know the details.

Then, a chill climbed up his back to the top of his head, making his hair stand on end, and he didn't know why.

Can you temporarily change the time and go another day? He opened his mouth, wanting to express his opinion.

But after thinking about it, another day may not be able to avoid it, just like what is destined to happen will happen after going around.

"...All right, what should come will always come."

Saiki Kusuo chose to wait and see what happened.

At that time, he thought to himself, even if the child and the nun who "saw" were hiding secrets, no matter how many problems there were, it would not be difficult for today's strongest cross talk (cross out) trio.

With their abilities, wherever they are placed, they should be like full-level high-level players in the game who come to a novice village full of newcomers, and there is no one who can fight them for a few rounds.

... Judging from the most intuitive strength, this is indeed the case, and there is no [human] who can fight them 1v3.

However, before he really saw it, Saiki Kusuo couldn't think of it at all.

Some things are the muddy soil under the prosperity and blooming.

It is blood that stains red and white roses.

It is a rotten flower that takes root and grows in the hearts of countless people.

——In some worlds, there really are "things" that can make him shudder.

Like, "here".

*****

"..."

"..."

"..."

Don't ask why the new opening is such a neat ellipsis.

Do not ask.

If you ask, the silver-haired boy's cute face will come into view even though he is dark, and if he is lucky, he will also give him a murderous stare.

Have they come to a new different world——here they are.

Did they start camping well--started.

No.

The beginning is the beginning.

But the problem is, not at all.

The place of landing is random as usual, and the place where it lands is a dense forest with trees rising straight into the sky.

At first glance, this environment looks no different from an ordinary dense forest, but upon closer inspection, you will find the difference.

The towering giant tree is different from the tree species in the world they have been to. Under the fan-like leaves hang bright and shiny fruits like lanterns, and the roots above the ground will wander freely like life.

Hidden under the dead leaves is a hollow that will sink if you step on it. If you accidentally slip into it, you will be dragged away by the man-eating vines in the black hole, and only bones will remain.

In the seemingly ordinary forest, there are murderous opportunities everywhere, and a moment of carelessness will usher in a catastrophe.

This place is the nightmare of ordinary creatures.

"Well, if it's just for entertainment, it's barely passable."

But it is not ruled out that there are also human beings who use a somewhat dissatisfied tone to say the above arrogant remarks.

This kind of difficulty, that is, compared with the ordinary world where there is no danger, it seems to be doable, and it can be used as a camping place for the strongest trio.

it has started.

"The first step in camping is to find something suitable to make a tent?"

Boom——The towering giant fell to the ground with a slap of Eric's light hand.

However, the fruit on the tree fell to the ground with a crash, and the juice that splashed out actually had super acidity that could melt human bones.Crash, there are countless smoking holes on the ground.

Three people: "..."

"Ahem... Let me see, is there anything that can be used as fuel?"

Kacha——Speaking of this, Saitama tore off the snake vines that had been entrenched here for decades with his bare hands.

However, he pulled too hard, and he tore off all the vines covering an area of ​​more than [-] square meters.

Inside, there seemed to be a lot of skulls of dead animals mixed in. The eyeholes of the skulls were dark, and thousands of them popped out together, making people panic.

Three people: "..."

"...Forget it, are you hungry? How about catching a larger edible wild prey nearby and roasting it just to make do..."

"Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!!!"

As soon as it was said, a creature that perfectly met the two requirements of "bigger" and "wild" burst out of the forest.

This creature landed on eight legs, and used all eight legs when running. It only took a few breaths to cover a distance of hundreds of meters. With a huge smell, it rushed towards the [human] who hadn't appeared here for many years——

"Boom—crash!"

It wasn't Eric and Saitama who did it.

Before the creature rushed forward, Saiki Kusuo reached out on conditioned reflex and blocked it with superpowers.

But because he was frightened ("Because this thing is really ugly." Afterwards, the superpower explained it this way.), he also used too much force.

The mysterious creature was not blocked, but its eight legs were cut off by the wind that became sharp like a knife, and its elongated body was also cut off from it.

In an instant, accompanied by the sound of goosebumps, weird juice splashed everywhere.

Three people: "..."

Without verbal communication or eye contact, they (especially Saiki Kusuo) unanimously withdrew 1000 meters later, refusing to recall the vivid scene that happened in front of them.

"What the hell is this?"

"This is a fucking ghost."

"Damn it, let's stop swearing, the junior high school students are still here! Kusuo boy? Kusuo, are you okay?"

"……Depend on."

It's over, junior high school students are still learning badly.

But it can also be overstimulated and can't help it.

Because that "thing"—or in other words, all the wild creatures that can be found in this dense forest are all the kind that Saiki Kusuo just chopped off with his hands.

When crawling like a gecko, with eight legs and a hideous twisted head, it also looks like an ugly long bug, just crashing into the range of the "worm" that superpowers fear most.

This time he didn't lose his mind on the spot and let the whole dense forest explode into the sky, thanks to the presence of the other two.

But even hold back this time.

Saiki Kusuo!And definitely don't want to!here again!many--

"Shh!"

Saitama and Eric turned their heads: "Where are people?!"

It seemed that before the words were finished, the superhuman disappeared.

There was only a small bug that had just come out of the hole and was poking around.

Saitama and Eric: "...It happened."

Now it seems that "camping" is no longer a problem.

The problem is, not long after they arrived, they lost a fool—in this huge world, how can they find Kusuo Saiki who has teleported to nowhere?

"How to do?"

"What else can I do... look for it, I have to look for it no matter what."

Eric felt a headache deeply. He didn't expect to be unlucky to such an extent, and unlucky too quickly.

However, before looking for someone.

"Go out from here first, see what it looks like outside, and figure out the situation before we talk."

If the outside is also filled with the bug-like creatures they just met.

—that's the end.

——Saiki/Kusuo boy, in this kind of place, he will go offline after half a chapter!
