Summary
Warning : Spoilers for One - Punch Man Ch . # 196 ( JP)/#194 ( EN)Chapter # 196 ofOne - Punch Manhas bring out a lot of young information , courtesy of the # 1 hoagy , Blast , and this info represents a major change from the webcomic – but one that ’s indisputably for the unspoiled . Blast ’s information ties the current Ninja Village arc to the arch over God storyline in a way the webcomic never did , bringing these element together to form a clearer story .
In chapter # 196 , Blast explains to Saitama and Flashy Flash that he once had a pardner – a ninja by the name of Empty Void . Empty Void had been helpingBlast to hunt for the cube which are relate to God , but betrayed him and formed a treaty with God , monsterizing and reaching far greater king levels than he had before .
He founded the Ninja Village , and began training young assassins such as Flashy Flash and swiftness - o'-Sound Sonic , to do his bidding . Blast and Empty Void combat it out 15 years ago , ending with the Ninja Village beginner badly injure and forced into recover in hiding ever since .
Blast’s Involvement Changes The Ninja Village Arc Radically
Originally , neither Blast nor the God plot were involved in the webcomic version of the Ninja Village bow . Blast really come out much earlier in the manga than he did in the webcomic , which pose the stage for his interest in the plot of ground here . Not only does this assist to actually tie - in what ’s going on with the Ninja Village to the greater story electric arc , butit also in conclusion uncover some aspect of Blast ’s past , what he has been up to and how long he ’s been at it . The Hero Association itself is only a few long time onetime , so for Blast to have been battle his former better half 15 years ago , they must have been on the lead of God for quite a long time by now .
This also expands on the Ninja Village ’s leader quite importantly . In the webcomic , he had no connection with Blast at all , other than their conflict . Making the Ninja Village ’s leader into Blast ’s former partner is an interesting twist , as it suggest that even the powerful hoi polloi that Blast has come to bank upon can becorrupted by God ’s influence . It explains why Blast is so adorn in collecting these regular hexahedron as well , as if even a muscular and presumptively righteous person like his cooperator could diminish , then anyone can , and the chance for that to fall out must be downplay . It also apply Blast a cause to be personally involved in this , rather than it simply being another missionary post against God .
How these change will burble out through the rest of the story arc will be interesting to see ; the webcomic ’s original end for the Ninja Village ’s leader is screaming , but not necessarily narratively satisfying . Further growth of the God plot line is definitely important here , and finding out more about what motor the Ninja Village leader to admit God ’s office could be very telltale . This also give the story a prospect to develop Blast more as a fibre , since he end the chapter leaving with Saitama . TheOne - Punch Manmanga ’s new take on the Ninja Village story arc could be very interesting thanks to these big change from the webcomic .
