Genos reaches the shelter and initially drives the Deep Sea King back with speed and firepower. The monster adapts, tears off one of Genos's arms, and launches acid toward a child. Genos shields her with his body and is left critically damaged. Mumen Rider arrives next. He has no realistic chance of victory, but his insistence that effort and duty still matter inspires the frightened crowd. The Deep Sea King beats him repeatedly until Saitama finally appears and catches the fallen hero. One ordinary punch destroys the monster and clears the storm. The survivors celebrate, but a cynical civilian argues that the other heroes were useless because Saitama ended the fight so easily. To protect their reputations, Saitama pretends he merely finished an enemy they had already weakened and accepts the crowd's anger as a fraudulent opportunist. His rank rises to B-Class, yet most of his mail is hostile. One sincere letter thanks him. At an oden stand, Mumen Rider reveals that he wrote it and buys Saitama dinner. Their meeting quietly confirms that the person whose respect matters most understood the sacrifice. Elsewhere, a dying fortune teller leaves a warning that Earth itself faces imminent danger.
