The 193rd chapter drops Saitama into an ancient grudge over a sealed dragon and his blunt way of ending it, then pivots to a tense meeting with Flashy Flash whose recruitment pitch sets up a looming clash.
Summary
Saitama stumbles into a feud between two groups fighting over a dragon that was sealed away in the distant past. Rather than let the dispute drag on, he settles the eight-century standoff in the simplest way possible, freeing the dragon so he can wipe it out entirely.
Afterward, as he games with King, Flashy Flash shows up and proposes that Saitama become his student, offering to help track down Manako for hints about the figure known as God. Saitama waves the whole idea away, a rejection that pushes the two toward a confrontation.
Key Events
Saitama ends an eight-hundred-year conflict by releasing the sealed Cruel Dragon and destroying it. Flashy Flash then approaches him with an offer of discipleship tied to locating Manako and learning about God. Saitama refuses, and the disagreement builds toward a fight between them.
Notes
The chapter bridges the Cruel Dragon Arc and the Ninjas Arc, adapting material partially drawn from webcomic chapters 111, 112, and 119. Rangor, the Cruel Dragon, and an unnamed warrior of the dragon alliance all perish in it, while Manako, Blast, and God appear only in mention. Mosquito Girl, Dr. Genus, and Armored Gorilla share the cover.
