Chapter 130

Garou trades blows with Superalloy Darkshine and is driven back, overwhelmed. A heavy punch snaps him out of the fog left by his earlier fight with Orochi, and he rises to challenge the hero directly. Darkshine's ferocious tackle smashes clean through Garou's guard and hurls him through several layers of the Monster Association headquarters, breaking his ribs, though the injury seals itself in moments. Garou answers by fusing Water Stream Rock Smashing Fist and Whirlwind Iron Cutting Fist into Cross Fang Dragon Slayer Fist, an unbroken assault that leaves the seemingly unbreakable hero weighing the real possibility of defeat. Darkshine strikes back at full strength with Superalloy Bazooka, and Garou meets it with a counterblow of his own. The narrator observes that Garou's limiter has started to give way.

Away from the fight, Saitama frets over his damaged cape while Flashy Flash lectures him on his technique. Up on the surface, Genos wonders whether Saitama's clothes have been ruined.

Garou survives Darkshine's tackle and shattered ribs, then combines his two signature fists into Cross Fang Dragon Slayer Fist to counter the hero, whose full-power Superalloy Bazooka is met head-on. The narration notes Garou's limiter beginning to break, while Saitama worries over his torn cape and Genos frets on the surface.
