Answer me this! Why are we forced to work? Why must we pay money to eat?

It's insane!

Can't we all just share?

Look around.

The rich get fat while the poor die.

Where is the freedom in this world? Does it even exist?

We're all just slaves to our work! And is work fun?

No! How could it be?

We do not want to work! Period!

That's why I, Hammerhead, will change our society!

I'll make it where only those who want to work will work, while the rest are

supported! We will create a utopian world! The Paradisers, led by

will realize this!

Boss, nobody's listening.

All these damn idiots?

They're not ready for us anyway!

Let's go!

That guy's in need of loading.

We'll wreck his posh penthouse and show everyone that we mean business!

High -rise apartments are symbols of inequality!

Yes, sir!

Thank you.

Thank you for

watching!

There's no way in hell he made so much money legally.

It's unforgivable. Bring it down.

Yes, sir.

The

target

has been destroyed.

Man, these experimental battle suits sure do pack a wallop.

I mean, sure, we had to steal them, but when it's all said and done, it was

totally worth the risk.

Oh, wait. That was the wrong building.

My bad, boss.

Actually, his house is a little further up.

Whatever. Everyone makes mistakes.

But the important thing is to learn something from them. Am I right?

Right you are, sir.

Then onward to Zenitus!

Move out!

You've got a bugger on your finger!

What a dream.

The terrorist group responsible for the riots call themselves the Paradisers.

They've destroyed a high -rise building in City F and the situation seems to be

spiraling out of control.

I'm receiving word that we've just learned the identity of their leader.

This is Hammerhead, a B -class criminal who's been involved in several violent

incidents in the past.

He's a man of large stature, standing 6 feet 6 inches tall and weighing 462

pounds. According to one eyewitness report, he fought 20 men in a street

and sent each of them to the hospital.

The Paradisers sent the following message directly to this TV station. We

continue to riot until food, clothing, and shelter are provided free of charge

to those who do not work. Sounds pretty boring.

No need for me to get involved.

Reports indicate that they all have shaven heads, making them not only

in appearance, but quite intimidating.

It is advised that those who encounter any shaven -headed men on the street

should leave the area immediately.

What? No.

Bastards! Those thieves!

They stole my look!

I spend all this time trying to be a hero, but if they keep acting like

jackasses, I'll be treated like a villain!

No! They will pay!

Run!

The Paradisers are coming!

Man, they're tough. They're not gonna back down.

It's too dangerous!

Stop right there, you thugs!

The bicycle is for justice.

Lumen Rider is here!

Lumen Rider, he's come to save us! There's nothing to fear with him around.

Hero, huh? What a joke.

Here I come!

Somebody call an ambulance!

Mr. Zeniru, you must flee.

What, are you kidding? I can't do that. Running away from terrorists would hurt

my reputation.

There's no need to leave.

Not while I'm around.

You're quite the lucky man having this occur while I'm still under contract.

You're just one bodyguard, you can't... No, Sonic, that's the spirit!

But are you sure you can handle this by yourself? The men coming are... Of

course I can.

You should be concerned with their lives. So start thinking of a way to

of the pile of dead bodies I'm about to make.

The Paradisers. A bunch of upstarts lucky enough to be equipped with some

type of battlesuit. But they're led by that B -class criminal Hammerhead. He

might have some backbone.

But look!

You can see Beniru's building across the woods.

People call it the Golden Turd.

All right, let's go!

Something's wrong.

I've been waiting for you, Hammerhead.

Zeniru sent me.

Let me start out by saying this.

No opponent of mine has ever escaped alive. Not once.

I plan on keeping it that way. When it comes to my job, I'm a perfectionist.

if you surrender right now, I'll let you live.

So what's it gonna be, then?

Thank you.

Why is every... Holy crap!

What's all

this? Trying to intimidate me?

You can't see me, can you?

So he decided to fight instead of run.

Oops.

There goes my bad habit again.

You're just a little dog bought by Zeniru's money. You really think someone

me who's fighting for a noble cause can lose to a gun -for -hire dog like you?

I see what he's up to. It's just as I thought.

He's a complete fool.

He could have at least tried to arrange the rocks in a less obvious way.

There are plenty more rocks where those came from! And if you don't stop me,

they're just gonna keep on coming!

So let me guess.

You think you'll be able to deal with my speed if you know which direction I'm

coming from. How utterly pathetic.

But I'll play along.

In fact, I'll take you... ...head -on!

It's too fast. I can't see him.

But it doesn't matter.

I got this!

Gotcha!

Think about how stupid you were to face off against the likes of me on your way

down to hell!

It's over.

Yeah. Unfortunately, I couldn't go easy on them.

Yes.

Hammerhead's body is over here as well.

I'll head back now.

The corpse is gone?

Phew. That was close.

It's a good thing that ninja freak hit me in the head.

Luckily, my skull's always been several times thicker than a normal person's.

Damn it. I don't know who that bastard was, but one day I'm gonna kill...

Now what?

As with the mosquito monster, it seems I grossly underestimated my opponent's

power once again.

I let my guard down and Kabuto took advantage of that.

If Master Saitama had not been there as well, I am certain that I would have

been destroyed.

I see.

Well, either way, I'm glad you're all right. Doctor, he saved me from certain

death on two different occasions.

You were the one responsible for restoring my life.

Later, this same life was saved by Master Saitama, who now has saved it

Ah, yes, I think I get the picture, Genos.

You're trying to tell me just how amazing this Saitama fella is, am I

Yes, sir.

Listen to me, Genos. They're not quite ready just yet, but I'm developing a new

set of augmentations.

When I replace your existing parts with them, you may even be able to surpass

your friend.

He must possess an enormous amount of strength for you to go on and on about

to such a degree.

Yes.

So what's your deal?

Did you come out here to sign up with the Paradisers?

Not at all.

Actually, I'm just a guy who's a hero for fun.

For personal reasons, I'm out here to smash all your heads in.

So, uh, where are your followers?

Then die!

All right, enough.

I better get out of here quick.

How? I thought I punched him.

Aw, what a letdown.

I was pretty excited to see the battle suits I'd been hearing about.

But the design's pretty lame, and all they do is give you superhuman strength.

You have no idea how hard it was to get a hold of these things!

How could an insignificant gnat like you know that true value, huh?

Today is your lucky day!

I've been waiting to test the full power of that suit on someone!

SPIN... ATTACK!

Whoa. When I was just a kid, I used to use that move all the time.

Impossible! Hammerhead, huh?

He's a lot like me.

No way!

What the hell are you?

Wait!

Hold on! I just... I just wanted to get him working, that's all!

Don't be bad anymore, okay?

What? Wait, you mean you're not gonna kill me? Get lost.

Right! You got it!

That's that.

Where did Hammerhead wander off to?

Huh?

There's no one left here but you.

Hmm. He was heading in that direction, screaming and yelling. Fuck naked.

What's this thing?

Hey, you got it wrong.

What have I got wrong?

I know how this looks, but I'm not one of the Paradisers.

You're a terrible liar.

No, no, no!

Don't be stupid!

Look at me. I don't really need to.

With that bald head, there's no denying it.

Come on.

Really, take a good look at me. I'm the guy who's out being a hero for fun. I'm

not a villain. Never heard of you.

Oh, I see.

Either way, it doesn't matter to me in the least.

You were able to read my attacks two times in a row.

That's the real problem.

Born in a ninja village.

I've been honing and perfecting my techniques since my earliest days of

childhood.

Yet you saw right through them in an instant.

This I cannot permit.

What's he talking about?

My pride won't allow it. I don't care who you are. I can't let you simply walk

away.

Oh, come on. You just want to try out those honed and perfected moves on me.

I can tell by that innocent smile of yours.

What do you think of this speed that breaks the sound barrier?

Of these shock waves?

Can you even see me?

How can you possibly keep up with me?

Uh... Can I go home?

BASTARD! TWIN BLADE TICK!

Jack, mate.

Oops. Sorry.

I, uh... I didn't do that on purpose. I meant to stop before hitting you, but

your momentum carried my fist into your, uh... Listen.

I've worked every job from assassin to bodyguard. I'm the deadly ninja.

Speed of sound, sonic!

But for the time being, my work will be on hold.

Now that I've found such a formidable opponent, I'm dedicating myself to

training until we settle this.

Let me know your name!

It's Saitama.

Saitama! Next time we meet, it'll be your demise!

Sure.

I, Speed of Sound Sonic, the ultimate ninja, will not rest until I have

you down!

Go train hard.

Speed of Sound Sonic?

Who is that?

What kind of person would possess such a redundant name?

Dunno. He appeared out of nowhere, said we were rivals, and then took off.

If he is bothering you, I will get rid of him. You're not much better, you

Actually, why are you here again? Go home. It's not like we're related.

Master. I must become stronger because... Shut up!

The incidents from today made me aware of a serious problem and I'm reeling

shock. So I beg you, just go home. A serious problem?

For somebody as great as you are? But what could it possibly be?

Please, tell me.

No one knows who I am.

It's been right around three years since I first became a hero.

I've defeated a lot of monsters and evil organizations during that time.

Come to think of it, I've never heard of any other heroes doing as much as me.

Not even close.

Everyone in the world should know my name by now. I mean, isn't it kind of

that I don't have any fans or anything?

You know what he said to me today?

Never heard of you.

Never. On top of that...

Everyone in town thought I was one of those terrorists.

They forgot how I beat those monsters and all the other stuff I've done for

them. He is right.

I recall seeing the news report earlier today.

There was no mention of Master Saitama or Speed of Sound Sonic.

Instead, the one credited for defeating the Paradisers was a hero called Moomen

Rider.

Hold on.

Master! Are you listed with the Hero Registry?

Take a test at any local branch of the Hero Association.

If you score better than the cutoff, you will be registered in the Hero Registry

and will be allowed to officially call yourself a hero.

Once officially recognized, you'll be deemed a pro and will be paid for your

work through donations collected by the association.

All the heroes in the public eye are fully registered, accredited, and

professional. You may be doing plenty of hero work, but if you're only a self

-proclaimed hero, you're really just some weirdo.

Some weirdo spouting nonsense and viewed with great suspicion, it says.

I had no clue.

So, Genos, are you registered?

No. Should I be?

Huh?

Hey, let's sign up.

Go register with me and I'll make you my official disciple.

Sounds like a plan.

Please, don't do this.

Forgive me.

Pleading for his life after stealing battle suits from the organization, he

truly understood nothing.

Of course, we did let the theft take place in order to collect the data from

suits in the field.

And the body?

Leave it.

Thanks for giving me my thick skull, Mommy.

I promise.

I promise I'll get a job.

Our guest this morning is Mr. Majimeta, an expert on the labor issues

confronting young people today. Thanks for being here.

Thank you for having me. Mr. Majimeta, as we saw with the Paradiser incident

recently, there's an increase in young people who lack motivation to work.

you care to comment on this phenomenon?

Honestly, I'm really not that different from them.

Those unemployed guys are a lot like me.

If I'd taken a wrong step,

would I have ended up like that too?

Thank you for watching.

See you next time.

No gum

Are you ready, Master?

Uh, sure.

I'm the recently reformed Hammerhead. How's it hanging?

Before I introduce next week's episode, I'd like to take a few moments to do a

little PR for myself.

Oh, I can't do that.

Next time on One Punch Man, Episode 5, The Ultimate Master.

Yeah, if I'd had a mentor like him, maybe my life would have been different.

knows?
