One Punch Man Manga Online Chapter 72
Chapter 72 – “Monsterization” focuses on the chaos unfolding in the Super Fight Stadium after the arrival of Goketsu, a former tournament champion turned monster. Goketsu addresses the remaining martial artists, offering them monster cells from the Monster Association. He explains that consuming one of these cells will instantly transform them into powerful monsters, granting them unimaginable strength. Some of the defeated fighters, feeling humiliated and powerless after their losses, are tempted by the offer.
A few, including the arrogant Bakuzan, consume the monster cells and undergo horrific transformations. Their bodies mutate into grotesque forms, and their strength increases drastically. Bakuzan, now a hulking monster, relishes his newfound power and prepares to exact revenge on the fighters who once stood above him. Meanwhile, other participants resist the offer, horrified by what they’ve witnessed.
As monsterized fighters begin slaughtering the uncooperative contestants, the tournament arena descends into violence and bloodshed. The Monster Association’s plan becomes clear: to recruit the strongest humans into their ranks and eliminate the rest. Goketsu warns that this is only the beginning of a larger war between monsters and heroes. The chapter ends with a looming sense of dread, as Suiryu realizes the tournament was just the first battleground in a much darker conflict.
