Chapter 16：Saitama

'OK… this time no holding back to level up my armor or I might really die. Time to see if an unstoppable force can beat an immovable… no an indestructible object. Technically my 'Complete Blunt Resistance' should be able to nullify Saitama's punching force… though somehow I really doubt that would happen. Just for slowing him down I should try what I can… System buy me Tsukuyomi, Amaterasu, Flame Control and most importantly if the chance exists and it does… that Saitama can surpass my defense, I have to buy Kamui(Short) and Kamui(Long).'

System: "Complying…"

-[System Points]=11'398'355

As I walked I decided to take look at the current missions.

*[Missions]:

-Encounter with Saitama. [(Survive)10'000'000 sp], [(Tie)10'000'000, *unknown], [(Win) x1 infinity stone of your choice]

(Warning you can only complete 1 of the above.)

-Save the city from the Meteor [Reward: 1'000'000]

-Destroy the spaceship [Reward: 10'000'000]

-Become an S-Rank hero. [Reward: Title 'A Seat at the table']

-Save a cat form a tree [Reward: Title 'Classic Hero']

'… System just to be clear, I simply need to either kill or make Saitama admit defeat right?'

System: "…system detects that host is about to do something underhanded but that isn't possible with the absolute strength of Saitama so yes."

'We'll see… sometimes all you need is a little thinking, some good planning and who knows… an infinity stone might just fall in your lap. Only an idiot will actually try to fight Saitama fair and square. Or a very pure and naive protagonist.'

*System is intrigued.

In the following days I prepared for my inevitable confrontation with Saitama. First I used 100'000 system points to get around 10 million dollars in an offshore bank account. Next I bought information from the system regarding the location of Saitama and all the supermarkets around the area and found the one I was looking for. The only one who had bargains was 200 meters from his house, so that must be it.

'Now its time to confront him.'

-DING, DONG

The door opened showing a normal looking bald man.

Zero: "Excuse me are you Saitama?"

Saitama: "Yes that's me, who are you?"

Zero: "My name is Lelouch and I want to know if you would like to spar with me. I have hear that you are very strong and I'll gladly pay you $100'000 if you can defeat me within 5 min. I have the money right here." – I said as I pulled a luggage

Saitama: "… $100'000 really?"

Zero: "Yes there is only 1 condition though?"

Saitama: "What?"

Zero: "If I say stop you have to admit defeat but I will give you $1'000'000. Do you have any problem with technically loosing."

Saitama: "Well, I don't mind but are you really going to pay me that much money just for this?"

Zero: "Of course here are $50'000 in advance, you can go deposit them if you want."

Zero: "Very well, shall we go now?"

Saitama: "Just let me put on my costume."

As Saitama came out he was in his iconic red and yellow suit with white cape.

Zero: "There is a canyon 20 kilometers outside the city, shall we go there?"

As Saitama nods we head off in my car and soon arrive at the canyon. As we get a fair distance from each other I take a careful look at my opponent with my MS. I directly activate my MS abilities stacking Energy Absorption, Tsukuyomi, also entering my armored form, activating Half-body Susanoo and finally Time-Stop.

He only needed 2 seconds to break through both Tsukuyomi and Time Stop… but that was enough for my Susanoo to draw it's sword and slash at Saitama's chest leaving a gash across it. In the next second though he rushed towards me like a bullet punching through my Susanoo, and straight through my chest, his hand leaving a giant hole in it.

'Guess I got my answer.'

As I regenerated I decided to use 'kamui' this time to defend myself and attack. I could not separate any of his limbs and throw them in Kamui dimension so I tried to throw him in there as a whole. Needless to say it didn't work as he started punching the ground almost collapsing the dimension.

'This is the final trick up my sleeve. Inversion.' –is what I thought as my right MS started rotating at insane speeds.

But it gave effect. Saitama started swinging left instead of right, going backwards instead of forward, using a weak punch instead of a strong punch, moving slow instead of fast, keeping his eyes away from me instead of looking at me.

'This is amazing, but also draining. I got all I came for.'

Zero: "Stop."

Saitama: "Oh… I lose then."

Zero: "Don't worry about it, if you used stronger punch I would have become mush on the floor."

Saitama: "Was it that obvious?"

Zero: "Yes…" – 'No, but I've seen you split open the sky… literally.��

Saitama: "I hope that doesn't mean you won't pay me… hahaha…"

Zero: " Oh, don't worry let's just go to the car, the money is in the trunk."

As we walked towards the car we noticed something surprising.

The place where the car was parked was part of a giant crater.

Zero: "I guess I will have to stop at the a bank before I can give you the money…"

Saitama: "Yeah… this is partly my fault too." – Partly my ass you are the one who punched the ground apart while I was using Kamui.

As I used my wings to get back to the city Saitama followed running.

---------20 min later---------

Zero: "Mr. Saitama here are your money. I would advise to deposit it immediately but its up to you."

Saitama: "It's okay, you're a pretty alright guy Lelouch."

Zero: "Haha.. thank you for the compliment. Now if you excuse me I have to go."

Siatama: "Okay then … see ya."

As I left the Saitama I already started talking with the system.

'That counts as mission completed doesn't it system.'

System: "… … … … … Cheater, but yes."

[Pick an infinity stone.]

'Indeed an infinity stone by itself cannot allow me to go back in time. But what if I combined it with my already existing time bending. Or what if I used the power stone to increase the power of my already existing abilities. It won't allow me to travel back in time but it will increase the power of all my abilities. Choices, choices which one to chose?'
