Previous Chapter Recap
The psychic clash between Tatsumaki and a male artificial esper from Tsukuyomi creates a powerful earthquake that shakes the Hero Association Headquarters, causing the staffs there to be aware of the chaos underground. Being at a disadvantage, the male esper takes Fubuki hostage by telekinetically breaking a capsule of sleep medicine inside her stomach that he had a spy slipped into her beauty supplements before, anaesthetising her, although she is resisting the effects of it.
He further tells Tatsumaki of a capsule of deadly poison inside Fubuki as well, demanding the elder sister not to resist. Tatsumaki is forced to comply before being restrained by the man’s psychic power, who then breaks the containment case of Demon-level Mysterious Beings that are kept on the floor beneath in an attempt to have those monsters kill off other witnesses who are aware of him kidnapping Psykos, Fubuki and Tatsumaki.
As the Demon-level monsters approach everyone and the artificial esper is about to leave with his spy who is revealed to have infiltrated the Blizzard Group as a fake member, to their surprise, Saitama busts through all of the monsters, killing them.
