Tornado's battle with Psychos continues amid the scattered heroes in One-Punch Man. This is a middle stretch of the Monster Association conflict, with the previous encounters still determining where help is needed. Read it for the relationship between the psychic confrontation and the people caught around it. The opening situation makes the battlefield a constraint of its own, rather than a blank space in which the strongest attack can simply be used.

Spoilers — why this volume matters. Tap to reveal.

The publisher ties Tornado's major attack to a prior rescue: with Genos helping, she extracts the scattered heroes before unleashing force that distorts the city. That sequence gives restraint a practical cause. Holding back is not automatically indecision when allies remain in the area an attack would affect. The analytical interest is in rescue enabling offense, rather than offense making rescue unnecessary. VIZ also describes other S-class heroes finding renewed resolve, but that does not certify the operation's conclusion. The volume remains part of a prolonged battle whose useful unit is the situation around each action.
