MAJOR spoilers for One-Punch Man chapter 166.
Saitama's endless supply of strength and power has been the basis for most of One-Punch Man's humor and drama. With his fated nemesis now wielding the exact same level of strength, how can Saitama possibly win?

As both fighters close in with their fatal blows, the S class hero Blast worries that the force from these two attacks connecting could destroy the entire planet Earth.
