Messenger of the Seafolk
CharacterThe Messenger of the Seafolk is an unnamed octopus-like Mysterious Being sent ahead of the Deep Sea King's invasion. Surfacing in J-City to demand that humans submit to his race, this Wolf-level herald is silenced almost instantly by a single blow from Saitama.
Appearance
The herald takes the form of an octopus-like creature that stands upright on two legs, its body draped in a toga.
Personality
He shares the arrogance common to the Seafolk, convinced that his kind is destined to lord over the entire world.
History
Just before the Deep Sea King's forces strike J-City, the Messenger rises out of the ocean and marches on the townspeople, proclaiming that anyone who wishes to live must kneel and serve the Seafolk. His speech is cut short when Saitama appears and ends him in one punch. Classed as a Wolf-level menace, he ranks as a comparatively feeble monster, yet his sheer bulk, standing at least as tall as a building, lends him considerable physical strength that ordinary people cannot withstand. He holds the distinction of being the first Wolf-level threat shown in the anime and the largest such Mysterious Being in the series.
