One Punch Man: Thunder Shazam

Chapter 4 The Man in the Peaked Hat

On the first day the Thunder Game Center opened, it didn't make a penny from its customers. Instead, its first customer died in the store, even though he was a weirdo.

What Leto didn't know was that a bald man passed by accidentally. He stopped at the door for half a minute, then shook his head and left.

There was not a single customer the next day. Leto felt that the location of this game arcade was too damned. Who would come here with such a location so close to no man's land?

It's strange that a game arcade can do business here, but what he can't help is that he has to run the Thunder Game Hall here, so if no one comes, he has to go and attract customers himself.

Leto had almost used up the thousand yen he had on him that day, and he was going to go out to attract customers to come to the arcade. As long as people in this world played the games in this arcade, they would definitely come back a second time.

This way, with repeat customers, his business will be easier. Everything is difficult at the beginning. Leto didn't think about doing other things. He first solved his own food and clothing problem. Anyway, he didn't need to be charged rent here, and it was all pure profit.

The world of One Punch Man is very different from the world Leto lived in before. The world of One Punch Man is divided into 26 cities, which correspond to 26 letters.

From City A to City Z is the outline of the entire world, and the area beyond these 26-letter cities is the no-man's land, or the weirdo's land.

The specifics of Leto are not very clear, unless he becomes stronger in the future and can go to places other than 26 cities to see what is there.

These cities are relatively close to each other. Generally, you can reach neighboring cities without taking a plane or train. For places farther away, it is more convenient to take planes and trains.

Among the 26 cities from City A to City Z, City Z is the place that everyone least wants to come to because it is rumored that there is a very powerful existence here. Weird and weird events always happen here, and there is no clue about such things. , and there is no way to find out the truth.

Over time, local residents moved away one after another. Gradually, the edge of Z City became a no-man's land, and those residents moved to the center.

Leto's Thunder Game Hall is located between the no man's land and the downtown area. This location is a bit awkward. A few streets away is the no man's land, and a few streets away is the central area.

The intersection of the two areas seems very deserted. Basically, the people passing by here every day are stray cats and dogs, or weird people.

But even weirdos rarely show up here, so Leto has a headache. If he doesn't solicit customers, he will starve to death sooner or later.

It's not enough to abandon the game arcade. The system says this thing is a destiny.

At this moment, in an abandoned building in Z city, three weirdos gathered together.

"The Bamboo Shoot Monster hasn't come back after being gone for so long. Is there anything going on?" The Pineapple Monster, who was all brown and had thorns all over his body, said.

"What's the matter? There are no heroes in Z City. This is a no-man's land. Do you know what a no-man's land is? It's an abandoned place. There will be no heroes." The celery weirdo shook his head with a green patch. .

"There's nothing wrong with what the celery weirdo said. The bamboo shoot weirdo may have encountered something. I guess this point will be back soon." The broccoli weirdo agreed.

The pineapple weirdo wanted to say something more but didn't say anything. He cursed in his heart: "If I hadn't found a fruit-type weirdo, I wouldn't be among the vegetable weirdos like you. They always speak in the same tone!"

"What's wrong, pineapple weirdo?" Celery weirdo asked immediately when he saw pineapple weirdo frowning.

"Ah, it's okay. Let's wait a little longer. If the Bamboo Shoot Monster doesn't come back yet, we'll go look for him again." The Pineapple Monster chuckled.

"The celery weirdo has a point, so let's wait a little longer."

"Hey! I'm the pineapple weirdo!"

At this time, Leto has arrived at the center of City Z. Although every city has heroes in charge, there are definitely not many in charge of City Z. Most of the heroes stationed in City Z are responsible for the safety of the central area. As for There are no heroes to control the no man's land.

That kind of place is a restricted area, and there are extraordinary and terrifying rumors. Such rumors are heard by both heroes and weirdos.

It didn't take long for Leto to reach the center from the suburbs of City Z. He came here after releasing his transformation. In order not to attract too much attention, after all, with the appearance and size of Thunder Shazam, he looked like a hero no matter how he looked at it?

Since he was prepared to support himself first and attract customers, Leto was ready to fight a protracted battle of starvation.

Leto was already prepared on how to attract customers. He walked to a place with a relatively dense flow of people and shouted: "The game hall has opened a new big discount. Big discount. All guests who come to the store will get a 50% discount. Membership discounts will be updated." There are so many, don’t miss it if you pass by!”

However, Leto shouted for a long time. At first, only a few people noticed this place, but no one was willing to come and find out. Later, no one even looked at Leto.

As time passed by, Leto's throat became dry. After these few hours of shouting, Leto's originally surging passion gradually turned into indifference.

People in this world are really indifferent.

"Ah Nao Game Center is really 50% off?"

Just as Leto was about to leave, a voice stopped him.

This man was tall, wearing a black sweatshirt and a black peaked cap. The hat was held down very low. Leto couldn't see clearly what this man looked like, but he could vaguely see scars on his face.

"Yes, the game hall is opening a big discount these days. All purchases in the store are 50% off. It is even cheaper if you sign up as a member!" Leto's eyes lit up. This was the first human guest in name. He had to catch it. Live this opportunity.

"Then take me there." The man in the sweatshirt lowered his peaked cap lower.

"Okay, come with me." Leto asked him to follow without saying anything. After finally catching a consumer, he would not lose it because of too much nonsense.

"I mean, haven't we arrived yet?" The man in the hoodie saw Leto walking further and further into the countryside, almost reaching the no-man's land where weirdos were.

"Right away, we'll be there in a few bays." Leto said immediately.

"I wouldn't have come if I had known, would there be any danger?" the man in the sweatshirt underestimated in a low voice, followed Leto as he walked carefully, raising his head from time to time to observe his surroundings.

Originally, he would never come to Z City, but recently he heard that a new game had arrived in Z City, so he rushed over to take a look.

As a result, all the games were snatched up before he could see them. When he was about to go back, he heard Leto talking about the opening of the game arcade. He wanted to try it with a sense of luck, just in case the game was fun.

This walk lasted for half a day, and now that we were almost in no man's land, he started to worry.
