Kenzan Rat
CharacterKenzan Rat is a Dragon-level monster shaped like a colossal, quill-covered rodent that tore into H-City. Metal Bat was dispatched to stop it, but the beast met an unceremonious end when Tatsumaki accidentally crushed it while brawling with Saitama across the city.
Appearance
The creature looked like a rat blown up to gargantuan scale, its back bristling with spikes and its mouth lined with sharp teeth.
Personality
Ferocity defined Kenzan Rat. The moment it surfaced, it went on a violent tear through the eastern half of H-City.
Abilities
Its enormous frame and Dragon-level classification marked Kenzan Rat as a genuinely dangerous Mysterious Being. Raw power let it flatten buildings and overwhelm several heroes with ease, which is why the Association called in the S-Class Metal Bat to handle it. Rows of long, needle-like spines covered its back, sharp enough to impale buildings and useful for both attack and defense, much like a hedgehog's quills. Towering over the skyscrapers around it, the monster could reduce whole stretches of a city to rubble without real effort.
Metal Bat never got to test himself against it, though. As he closed in, Saitama and Tatsumaki came crashing through the city in the middle of their own fight, and Tatsumaki's stray force killed the rat before the hero could strike.
