It was official, Saitama had a lot of work to do if he wanted to make those Heroes understand how they were supposed to do their jobs.

'Fuck, i can't even begin to understand how they can be so stupid!'Thought Saitama, holding an uncounscious Lightning Max, as he continued to run along the street, saving all the civilians he could from the monsters that were attacking. It had only been 20 minutes since he encountered the Demon Level Threat, but the situation had already become worse than he thought it could.

Just as he was about to kill the monster, other heroes had arrived and tried to battle against said monster. However the monster had found a way to beat them all, and it was quite simple. Using his superior speed, the monster had escaped, making sure that the fastest heroes were chasing behind him while he called all his little friends to attack those that couldn't follow him.

It was quite a surprise for those C-Class Heroes to suddenly have to find against dozens of Tiger Levels threats. And Saitama couldn't understand why there were so much monsters coming there. It was supposed to be a normal day!!

"Saitama!!!" Yelled someone from behind. Saitama turned around and came face to face with an unknown Hero. The man was wearing a simple white smoking that was covered in blood.

"Who are you ?" Asked Saitama, confused as to why this man knew his name.

"Ah....I'm the C-Class Rank 8 Smoking Killer. I saw you when you came to be registered as a Pro Hero."Said the man.

"Hmm, okay but why are you here ?" Asked Saitama.

" Well the other C-Class Heroes formed a group to battle against the monsters, but some Wolf levels threats have escaped and are trying to join the Demon Level Threat. I think we should team up so that we can beat them before they reach him. According to the HQ the B-Class Heroes are having trouble beating him. For some reasons, the monsters from other cities are all coming here. A few A-Class Heroes should come to help us soon." Said the man, getting a nod from Saitama.

They continued to help the civilians, killing the rare monsters that they found. Saitama was becoming a little weary of Smoking Killer, the man was a little bit too strong to be a C-Class Hero.

"You're wondering why i'm a C-Class Hero huh ? "Asked the man out of nowhere as he dodged the incoming strike of a spide-like monster.

"Well yeah. From what i can see you have the potential to be an A-Class Hero. You're literally killing them with no efforts. And some of those monsters were tiger level threats." Said Saitama, even though he knew that it was actually for him too.

"Well it's the same for you....."Started the man, which caused Saitama to curse inside. "I'm staying in the C-Class because i don't want to become like the others, i know that fame and wealth will change me, and i don't want that. I think it's the same for you, isn't it ?" Asked the man, as he killed the last monster, getting a round of cheers from the civilians.

"Uh, y-yeah." Said Saitama with an awkward smile. The man couldn't be more wrong, but he seemed to be a good guy.

"HEY GUYS!!"

Both Heroes turned around when they heard someone yelling. They were quite surprised when they saw that it was a S-Class Hero that came to them.

"M-Metal Bat ?!" Exclaimed Smoking Killer.

"Yup! You guys should go back to the HQ or somethin'. Ya both look like ya need a good shower. The situation is under control now, the demon level threat was killed and the other monsters are getting finished by the B-Class Heroes. Still it's kinda weird that all those fuckers decided to attack at the same time." Said Metal Bat. Saitama and Smoking Killer nodded and went in the opposite direction.

"Well Saitama it was a pleasure to fight with you. I hope we can form a real team in the future." Said Smoking Killer, smiling to Saitama and disappearing in an alley.

"Yeah, right. "Said Saitama. He was about to check on Lightning Max when he felt something burning his skin.

"The hell is that?!" Yelled Saitama, grabbing said thing and throwing it on the ground. His eyes widened when he saw that it was the red crystal. It was now shining brighter than it ever did.

"Okay, now that's weird." Said Saitama. He crouched and grabbed it, but he immediately gasped when he saw that the crystal was absorbing the monster's blood he had on his jumpsuit.

"Wha-" Saitama was about to say something but kept silent when he saw that the crystal had stopped shining. It then levitated in the air, before starting to pulse violently, an ominous black gas oozing from it. It kept doing that for a whole minute before it fell to the ground. Saitama was stunned for a few seconds, but he just shook his head and put it back in his belt.

"I don't know what it is, but it sure is creepy."Said Saitama. Unknown to him, just after the crystal started to pulse, the mysterious being closest to it's position convulsed and let out a frightening shrill.

******************************

(An hour later, Hero Association HQ's infirmary)

"Thank you Mister Saitama. Lightning Max was in a really bad state." Said a doctor as he exited the room in which Lightning Max was sleeping.

"Well he did took a heavy hit from a Demon Level Threat"Said Saitama.

"Atleast this time it's nothing really bad. The two last times he was sent here he had most of his bones broken. He is really too reckless." Said the doctor, shaking his head.

"Wait, the other two times ?"

"Huh ? Ah yes, don't you remember ? The surprise attack of that Dragon Level Threat called Vaccine Man, and that other mysterious being.....Beefcake i think he was called. Lightning Max had tried to stop them, but he couldn't really do anything. Then again Beefcake was a giant, and Vaccine Man was really powerful." Said the doctor, which confused Saitama. He hadn't heard about this, but it was weird that those events happened without him.

"But who beat those two ?" Asked Saitama, which made the Doctor grin.

"You really don't know much, do you ? It was Blast of course!"

".............EHHHH?!"
