Redrawn Chapter 199 of One Punch Man Shines the Spotlight on Sonic
The latest chapter of One Punch Man, titled Undesirable Relationship, began with Flashy Flash initiating a challenge to Speed-o’-Sound Sonic in order to test his abilities. As predicted, Sonic was enraged by this and swiftly defeated a member of the Heavenly Ninja Party with a decapitation.
Despite Sonic’s questioning of Flashy Flash’s intentions in using Flowing Shadow Feet to effortlessly defeat multiple Tennin members, the latter did not hold back. However, this display of skill and showmanship did not go unnoticed by Tennin members Hellfire Flame and Gale Wind, who immediately launched an attack on Flashy Flash. However, their attempts to subdue him were in vain as other Tennin members joined in, attempting to use Hellfire Flame and Gale Wind as pawns to take down Flashy Flash.
Despite briefly appearing to be trapped, Flashy Flash was able to swing Gale Wind and strike multiple targets simultaneously. It was clear that both Sonic and Flash were finding the fight to be too easy, as the Tennin lacked coordination and were unable to work together. This was likely a result of their training in the ninja village, which emphasized individual combat skills.
As the battle neared its end, Flashy Flash successfully apprehended Hellfire Flame and Gale Wind, who had somehow reverted back to their human forms. Flash had a plan to use them as test subjects for the ongoing research at the Hero Association.
Shortly after, Flash and Sonic once again shifted their attention to the battle and quickly defeated the remaining members of the Heavenly Ninja Party with their synchronized attacks. The Tennin were perplexed by their impressive coordination, speculating that the two ninjas must have undergone rigorous training. However, they were ultimately unable to uncover the truth as they met their demise soon after.
After the fight concluded, Flash told Sonic that he thought Sonic had been defeated by The Great One. Sonic then disclosed that The Great One held no importance to him. He had only fought Flash to gauge his abilities since leaving their ninja village. Following this, the two ninjas playfully bantered about who was the more dominant fighter between them.
Final thoughts on Redrawn One Punch Man Chapter 199
The newly redrawn One Punch Man chapter 199 showcased a different portrayal of the fight between Speed-o’-Sound Sonic and Flashy Flash against the Tennin compared to its previous iteration. In the previous version, Flashy Flash was depicted as significantly stronger than Speed-o’-Sound Sonic. As a result, the updated chapter is expected to have some influence on the overall story.
