Chapter 163: The High-Speed Battle!

Chapter 163: The High-Speed Battle!

"You still have the energy to do something like this while fighting me?"

Cosmic Garou quickly adapted to the intense hypergravity and was furious.

Under ten times Earth's gravity, the planet itself was affected, beginning to compress and collapse.

But for two star-busting monsters, this kind of extreme environment didn't hinder their battle at all.

Even in this supergravity, Cosmic Garou burst forth with incredible speed.

"He's getting even faster..."

Chang Wei noticed Garou's rapid growth.

Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their fists clashed violently, and even the slightest graze caused the entire planet to tremble. A direct impact would trigger a catastrophic planetary earthquake.

The ground beneath them grew increasingly solid, yet it felt as if they were skating across it.

Their thought speed and movement speed had surpassed time itself. To an observer, they appeared as streaks of light, stretching a single second into eternity, exchanging hundreds of blows in an instant.

Then, as their battle raged on, the energy compressed to its absolute limit finally erupted in an uncontrollable explosion!

BOOM!

The shockwave shattered the atmosphere. The planet's upper layers were blown away, and from space, one could see a single bright flash expanding tens of thousands of times in an instant. A small black figure was launched from the explosion at a terrifying speed, skipping across the surface of the planet like a stone across water, bouncing dozens of times before coming to a stop.

That figure was, of course, Cosmic Garou.

Meanwhile, Chang Wei remained standing in place. Even amidst such a violent energy burst, he hadn't been forced back a single step.

But he could tell—Cosmic Garou's strength and speed had already surpassed his own.

He had only been sent flying due to the sheer force of the impact.

"You're no longer my match!"

Cosmic Garou charged back, but in the next instant, he saw Chang Wei unleash an overwhelming surge of energy!

It felt as if his power had skyrocketed hundreds of times in an instant.

"Meteoric Burst!"

Chang Wei threw a light punch, careful not to kill Garou outright. After all, his Meteoric Burst far outclassed Boros's. Given that his base form was already stronger than Boros, even though Cosmic Garou had surpassed his base state, the difference in their ultimate power was clear—his Meteoric Burst could easily obliterate his normal self.

Cosmic Garou's pupils shrank as the unavoidable punch struck him.

In the next moment, he was launched off the planet, flying so fast that even ten times Earth's gravity couldn't pull him back.

Chang Wei pursued. With his energy reserves, traveling through space for a while was no problem. Moreover, he had memorized Earth's spatial coordinates. When Blast had teleported them, he had recorded the molecular data of the spatial jump, and the Science Division had already analyzed and calculated the technology behind that dimensional portal.

Cosmic Garou had mastered it through his instinctive cosmic mode, while Chang Wei approached it from a scientific perspective. However, different universes had subtle variations in their parameters, so a teleportation method that worked in One Punch Man's world might not necessarily work elsewhere.

It would require recalculations.

But returning to Earth wouldn't be an issue.

In the vast cosmos, Chang Wei used energy propulsion to move and chase after Garou.

Unexpectedly, Cosmic Garou quickly grasped the concept of Meteoric Burst.

"With this technique... I've grown even stronger!"

With a sudden burst of power, Garou propelled himself forward, charging at Chang Wei.

"He mastered Meteoric Burst this fast?"

Chang Wei had expected it. In this state, Cosmic Garou was constantly evolving. In the original story, he couldn't keep up with Saitama's growth, but compared to Chang Wei, his improvement speed was frightening.

At their current velocity, the concepts of "up" and "down" were meaningless. Even if they flipped upside down, they moved as if they were on solid ground. They didn't need to rely on physical force—pure energy propulsion was far superior to any technique of exerting strength.

Garou flickered into existence above Chang Wei, executing a battle-axe kick straight down!

Chang Wei remained expressionless. With a nearly horizontal posture, he countered with a rapid upward kick!

There was no sound.

Only an explosion of blinding light, outshining even nearby stars. The flash was visible deep in the cosmos.

After taking the hit, Garou retreated, forcibly stabilizing himself by expelling energy, then immediately launched another attack.

His movements became so fast that space itself seemed to tear apart, leaving behind radiant afterimages.

Garou had realized something—Chang Wei's body was unnatural.

No matter how much raw power he poured into his attacks, every clash sent him flying backward while Chang Wei remained unmoving.

More importantly, despite having equal physical stats, Chang Wei was overwhelming him.

No matter how intricate his martial arts were, Chang Wei learned them instantly, optimized them, and even elevated them beyond their original form!

Even though Garou was now stronger than Chang Wei, the battle was still dead even.

Boom! Boom! Boom!

Their fists and kicks intertwined. The light from their speed stretched into a vast web of radiant threads.

Two cosmic-level forces clashed, generating terrifying energy storms. Each impact sent tremors through the otherwise stable void.

Distant planets, affected by the distorted gravity, were knocked off their orbits!

"Now... I'm faster than you!"

Cosmic Garou roared silently, unleashing a punch straight into Chang Wei's face!

This time—his fist broke through Chang Wei's unshakable defenses.

He saw it clearly—Chang Wei's face contorted under the force of his punch!

That moment electrified Garou.

Finally! Finally, this damn guy got hurt!!!

"Ah... not bad. You finally managed to shake my molecular structure."

Chang Wei was sent flying.

His psychokinesis had been breached, and even his molecular stability was disrupted. Though he instantly realigned his molecular bonds, if this continued, Garou would soon break through his defenses entirely.

Garou pressed his advantage, delivering an unrelenting barrage of explosive cosmic-powered punches and kicks!

Each strike dented Chang Wei's body, creating deep imprints on his surface.

But his recovery speed was beyond comprehension.

Between the Divine Light Virus, which specialized in regeneration, the Boros bloodline, which granted limitless energy and indestructible flesh, and his psychokinesis, which reconstructed every molecular disturbance—Chang Wei's body repaired itself instantly.

Even at their Meteoric Burst-level hyper-speed, his healing was so rapid that Garou almost believed his attacks were useless.

"Damn it! Which one of us is the real monster here?!"

Chang Wei smirked.

"Garou… can you keep up with this?"

And then—

"Supernova Burst!"

A higher-tier state beyond Meteoric Burst.

Like the leap from Super Saiyan to beyond Super Saiyan.

Because when it comes to speed—even the smallest advantage makes all the difference.

Supernova Burst was the scientifically optimized version of Meteoric Burst, enhanced by the Divine Light Virus and Chang Wei's body modifications—a temporary ultimate transformation!
