Chapter 38 - 38 Unable to Obtain Normally, Let's Take It by Force

Walking leisurely inside the battleship.

"Besides Boros, it seems like there are Dragon-level monsters in this cosmic pirate group...? But from what I can see now, the overall combat power of those remaining on the ship isn't that impressive."

Aside from the Monster Association, the highest combat power among the groups of monsters introduced so far is from this cosmic pirate group.

Three Dragons, and one above Dragon.

According to them, Boros had never experienced defeat and so he came to earth seeking a challenge because of the words of a certain seer, so not to mention anything far-fetched, at least within the galaxy, individuals with Dragon-level strength are already considered super experts.

Hmm, is Earth truly the center of universe?

There are quite a few top-notch experts from the universe on Earth.

But let's not dwell on that.

Roaming the universe for so long without defeat has undoubtedly greatly boosted their confidence, hence their high combat power.

Seeing Saitama barging in, they would surely run off confidently to intercept.

The result is quite obvious, being defeated instantly by Saitama.

It also turned out to be quite convenient for Roy, making things much quieter with no combat events occurring.

Recalling the plot as he walked, Roy muttered to himself in a low voice, "But it's still better to find the power system of this ship quickly. As Saitama's battle with Boros heats up, the ship's power system won't withstand their commotion and will be destroyed... I think it should be something like this."

"It's already at its limit, I'm going to press it now! It's now..."

Passing by a room, he heard someone murmuring inside.

"Huh, even aliens speak Japanese?"

After scoffing, Roy opened the door... violently.

Inside, there was a small alien.

From a human perspective of aesthetics.

It can only be described as odd, because it's an insignificant supporting character, so there's no need even to describe its appearance.

Let's just call it Alien A for now.

Roy's intrusion startled Alien A.

"Who are you? This is the cannon control room, unauthorized personnel, keep out!"

"So this is the place, huh?"

This Alien A is quite sensible.

By the way, he explained what this place was.

Ignoring the other's threat, Roy walked in.

This startled Alien A quite a bit. He's not a combatant with strong combat power, so he couldn't help but shout in a rather fierce manner, "Don't take another step into this room! Stay at the door while you're here. Don't take another step!"

Saying this, he also fumbled to pick up a gun, seeming to feel a bit safer with it, he breathed a sigh of relief.

A toy gun, nothing threatening.

Compared to this Alien A, Roy felt that observing the surroundings was more worth his while.

"Oh, from here I can observe the situation below."

"Die!"

Alien A, seeing Roy ignoring him, couldn't help but become furious.

This laser gun is a small laser gun, although it doesn't have the firepower of Roy's high-energy beam cannons, one shot at the human body could be fatal.

But it's useless against Roy.

With a flick of his hand, the laser beam was dispersed by him.

Seeing Roy being so ruthless, Alien A was too scared to hold the gun steadily.

"Tell me, where's the power room of your spaceship?"

"Do you think I'll tell you if you ask? Who do you think you are... Agh! The power room is at the bottom! Don't kill me! Don't kill me!"

Alien A wanted to say something more.

But Roy didn't waste any more words, a shot of heat ray grazed his scalp and shot behind the control console, after giving him a Mediterranean hairdo, he scared him out of his wits, not daring to continue pretending.

"Downstairs?"

After obtaining the information, Roy turned around without hesitation.

Letting Alien A breathe a sigh of relief.

"Damn it, this primitive native who can't even leave his own planet is actually so terrifying... I can't deal with him, let me contact the generals. Hmph, backward primitive, no matter how powerful you are, you won't be a match for the generals, let alone our invincible Lord Boros! Eliminate human tyranny, Earth belongs to the Dark Matter Thieves!"

He didn't know, but in these few minutes, two out of their three generals had been taken out, and one was currently engaged in a bitter fight, his weaknesses exposed, death looming.

As for Boros, he didn't care about anything else, fully engaged in his battle with Saitama.

Originally, he came to Earth because he wanted to find a worthy opponent.

To Boros, the subordinates of the cosmic pirate group were just tools for handling trivial matters. He didn't care about their lives or deaths.

After encountering an opponent who could be considered equal to him.

Immersed in battle, he had no time to concern himself with the lives of his underlings.

And Roy didn't bother with the opinions of minor characters.

It wasn't worth his precious time to deal with them.

This did give Alien A some breathing room, with Saitama's intervention, Roy believed that the end point of this cosmic pirate group that had roamed the galaxy for many years was Earth.

...Speaking of which, if Boros really was the dominator of the universe, then news of him heading to Earth but never returning to the universe would probably unsettle Earth in the future.

But with Saitama around, there shouldn't be any risk of world destruction.

That possibility is quite likely, but it's a future concern, nothing Roy needs to worry too much about. Of course, the arrival of malicious aliens is also a good thing for Roy, as it means he can gain more alien technology.

'This ship should have auxiliary programs similar to computers, but does the universe have the internet? No, even if there is, it can only be a local network while traveling in space, right? At least there shouldn't be network coverage in the solar system... So, can it be assumed that this ship doesn't have means to counter electronic intrusion?'

"Let's try it!"

Doing as he said.

Roy hacked into the ship's control system.

He thought there would be significant obstacles, at least some sensation of network intrusion, but unexpectedly, it was like entering an uninhabited realm, and he immediately seized control of the ship.

There seemed to be no sense of accomplishment for the moment.

Checked it out.

The ship's damage rate exceeded 50%.

Saitama and Roy rampaged through the ship, then Saitama fought Boros on the ship, while the ground-level S-Class heroes... mainly Tatsumaki, kept attacking the ship.

With multiple factors combined, the hull of the ship turned into its current state.

"Is it because these aliens have never studied electronic warfare? Oh well, it doesn't matter. Speaking of which, this ship is riddled with holes now, although I've taken control, the cost of repairs is astronomical, it's better to build a new one from scratch... Most importantly, I don't need such a large ship." Roy muttered, "Jarvis, copy all valuable information from the computer and transfer it to Yumemi's computer... Oh, check if there are any escape pods, if there are, launch them directly towards Yumemi's research institute."

[Yes, sir.]

"The route is confirmed, then..."

The two floating cannons behind Roy recombined into a drill in front of him.

"Experience from Genos comes in handy. As the shortest distance between two points is a straight line..."

The drill went full throttle, violently breaking through the incredibly complex corridors like a maze, while the thrusters on Roy's back fired at full power, speeding towards the direction of the power room.

Like a missile.

Although it won't explode, its destructive power surpasses that of a missile, instantly pulverizing any obstacles in its path.

"Wow!"

"What's this?"

"A drill! It's a drill..."

Roy focused on clearing the way forward, but it was tough on the grunts.

As they walked down the corridor, they suddenly heard the sound of an electric drill. Before they could react to what was happening, they disappeared entirely.

No need to belabor the point.

All the aliens inside the ship were taken care of by Saitama, while Boros was entangled with Saitama, or rather, while Saitama was playing with Boros, Roy encountered no obstacles as he rampaged through the interior of the ship.

The ship's altitude was also several kilometers high, and the internal space of the entire ship was extremely vast.

If used as a transport ship, it could accommodate tens of thousands of people or tens of millions of tons of goods.

As a cosmic pirate group, compared to using battleships to unleash destructive power and combat effectiveness, Boros himself preferred hand-to-hand combat.

So, in terms of design and configuration, this ship was actually not perfect.

Many areas had been repaired for a long time, like the Ship of Theseus.

This ship probably used to be a warship of some civilization, taken over by Boros.

It doesn't matter.

"But some materials can be recycled. After dismantling the power system, let the drones recover part of the hull."

Before long,

Roy reached the power room.

Because he was afraid of losing control, as he approached, he gradually slowed down. When he was just a wall away, he stopped.

"As expected, drills are a man's romance."

After a sigh, it was time to get down to business.

Boom!

With a dull sound, the heavy iron door was violently smashed open.

"FBI, Open up!"

Inside, Alien B was startled, instinctively asking, "Who's there?!"

"Where's the engine?"

"Intruder, get out!"

"Hmm...?"

Roy looked at Alien B, showing a friendly expression... well, Mr. B couldn't see it.

After a thorough beating.

"S-Sir, this is the power system of our ship... the power sphere."

A huge glowing sphere.

That was the power source that allowed the ship to travel through space and time. It's hard to imagine that such a small sphere could possess such immense power.

"Forgive my presumption, but may I ask if sir is only here to look at the power sphere...?"

Seemingly realizing something ominous, the alien in charge of the power room swallowed nervously, carefully asking.

"Of course, I'm not just here to look, I'm here to take it away."

His entire body was enveloped in armor, and no one could see Roy's expression.

But his lively voice probably indicated that he was quite pleased.

Hearing Roy's words, the alien panicked and said, "No! If the power sphere is taken away, the whole ship will fall!"

"When you invaded Earth, weren't you prepared for this?"

"What kind of joke is this!"

Although he was weak in combat, the three Generals and Lord Boros were all unbeatable, you know? Especially Boros, undefeated as he roamed the universe. So when they came to Earth, no one thought they would be defeated on this insignificant little planet.

'Damn, what kind of place is this! Why does a primitive native who hasn't even left his mother planet have such immense power? I've never heard of such a place in the universe. Could it be that the seer's prediction was correct? There's someone here who can match Boros.'

The alien felt his legs trembling uncontrollably.

He wanted to stop Roy's outrage, but he couldn't beat Roy.

'No choice, I'll wait for the others to come and then strike together. Let's ambush him here first.'

Roy didn't know the thoughts of the alien behind him, and even if he did, he didn't care.

His nanosuit wasn't just for show.

Not to mention how strong the inherent defense of the nanosuit was, Roy basically wouldn't engage in direct confrontation unless absolutely necessary, even if he was wearing armor.

While equipped with the nanosuit, there was also interaction inside and outside the body.

In other words, the nanosuit was not just armor.

It's somewhat similar to the living armor of a pilot.

Therefore, he wasn't worried about being ambushed. It's impossible for a passing bald alien to just punch through his defense, right?

He began to focus on how to dismantle the power sphere.

"The so-called technology becomes more advanced and refined, but the essence of the universe returns to simplicity. When the technological complexity reaches a certain level, the operation becomes foolproof. Understanding its use is more important than understanding its principles. This power sphere doesn't require overly professional means."

Roy hovered in front of the power sphere, scrutinizing it.

"Can't get close. When it's running, there's a powerful field around it resisting outside interference."

The alien standing aside smiled.

"You scared me. I almost forgot, the power sphere isn't something you can just dismantle at will. This ship has been flying for 20 years, and the power sphere has never stopped working, that's only natural. As a semi-permanent work energy source, once activated, there's no need to worry unless the ship is scrapped or the power sphere reaches its limit. So, when designing the power room, there was no consideration for how to remove the power sphere."

Of course, there are instances where the power sphere suddenly malfunctions, leading to abnormal cases.

But that requires a return to the factory for repairs, essentially replacing the power sphere. This approach is too costly, it's better to buy a new ship.

In other words, there are tools and methods to make the power sphere disappear and remove it.

But those tools aren't something you can just carry around.

So this Earthling could only watch helplessly as the power sphere remained untouched.

"Hehe, others will be here soon, and then I'll blow you the hell up, see how you remain arrogant and proud!"

He felt his heart settle down.

The Earthlings were helpless, so there was no need to worry about the power sphere being removed. Roy could leisurely wait for reinforcements to arrive and eventually turn the tide in his favor.

"But my distress signal has been sent out for so long, why hasn't anyone come? This is too passive, aren't there ten thousand fighters?!"

Boom!

A violent explosion erupted.

The aliens stood dumbfounded as Roy deployed his laser cannons, launching attacks on the edge of the power sphere.

"Since we can't take it out during activation, then we'll just deactivate it!"

"Stop, noooo..."

The aliens behind finally launched their attack.

Perhaps reinforcements had arrived, giving them confidence.

But Roy didn't even turn around. The nano-swarm formed a prison, covering the attacking aliens like a wide net.

At this moment, the entire ship was in extreme turmoil.

But Roy, floating in mid-air, was unaffected.

The duel between Saitama and Boros was nearing its end. Roy intensified his output, melting the facilities around the power sphere.

"I'll take this."

Using a few drones to carry the power sphere, Roy activated the nano-swarm and enveloped it.

"Send it to Yumemi."

"It's over!"

With the loss of the power sphere, all the ship's systems shut down, and it plummeted towards the ground.
