Summary

Atomic Samurai and Iaian keep deflecting a series of high-speed water jets fired by Evil Natural Water. Iaian notices the blasts steadily gaining force, deduces that the monster has been soaking up groundwater, and uneasily wonders what would happen if it drank the entire ocean. A fresh barrage shatters Iaian's blade and nearly runs him through, but Superalloy Darkshine reaches him in time, planting his extraordinarily tough body between the swordsman and the jets. The relentless assault leaves Darkshine untouched. Almost bored, he swats the monster apart with one punch and likens the experience to a bracing high-pressure shower.

Viz Media titles the chapter Superalloy Blackluster, matching Darkshine's official localized name. The installment shares its title with the volume version of Chapter 112. The volume printing adds pages that lengthen the Darkshine and Evil Natural Water duel, and the panel of Bang and Genos meeting the line of Black Sperm clones was enlarged into a more detailed double spread. This is the online edition.
