Previous Chapter Recap

Garou and Saitama land on Io, the moon closest to Jupiter in orbit; as Garou gathers himself from the surprise of landing on a moon, Saitama makes use of the strange situation, believing he can now go all out. He tries to put Genos’ core in his suit but decides to hold onto it, should the suit be torn. When Garou tries to tell Saitama that they must find a way to return to Earth, the hero cuts him off and claims “that can come after I beat the shit out of you”, directly challenging the monster. Surprised by his seriousness, Garou opens a gateway beneath Saitama.

Saitama quickly kicks away the portal from his feet and hurls a punch, sending Garou hurtling. He opens another gate behind the hero to hit him, but Saitama grabs the edge and flips it down, exposing Garou for another punch and knocking him back out onto the surface. Saitama mocks his “little tricks” and asks for Garou to use his fists. The cosmic monster responds that the techniques of countless school used as one are “his fists”.

Opening numerous gateways to surround Saitama for an attack, Garou speeds through them all and barrages him with his techniques. He uses Roaring Aura Sky Ripping Fist, followed by Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist, which is joined by Exploding Heart Release Fist, before using Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist, mercilessly pummelling the hero. Garou ends his assault with Nuclear Fission Gravity Knuckle, causing a huge explosion that decimates Io.
