Recap of One Punch Man Chapter 200

The 200th chapter of One Punch Man, redrawn, depicted Violent Force cautioning Flashy Flash and Speed-o’-Sound Sonic about the formidable power of Empty Void. He believed that it would have been more favorable for the two to have been defeated by the Heavenly Ninja Party rather than facing Empty Void on their own, as the difference in strength was too great.

Not long after, the two ninjas were ambushed by Empty Void who used the mysterious cube to touch them. As a result, Flashy Flash was presented with an illusion of his past, which God intended to use as a means of contacting the hero.

In the revised One Punch Man chapter 201, readers can look forward to finding out how Flashy Flash and Speed-o’-Sound Sonic are able to escape from God’s grasp. In the original version of the manga, Sonic was able to break free from the illusion and assist Flashy Flash. However, with the current changes being made to the story arc, the sequence of events does not necessarily have to occur in the same continuity.

Furthermore, the assistance of Blast, Saitama, and Manako can be anticipated for the two ninjas. However, due to the current situation, it appears that the manga will initially center around Flash & Sonic’s battle against Empty Void.
