Carnage Kabuto - One Punch Man

Carnage Kabuto (阿修羅カブト, Ashura Kabuto) was an artificial mutant created by Dr. Genus and the strongest creation of the House of Evolution. He was killed by Saitama.

Appearance

Carnage Kabuto was a massive being, towering over both Saitama and Genos. He was humanoid, but his body had many characteristics resembling a rhinoceros beetle, including a thick exoskeleton, a pair of wings encased by elytra, and a large horn on his head, similar to that of a rhinoceros beetle. He had huge spikes on his arms and legs. His body was mostly brown in color.

In Carnage Mode, Carnage Kabuto's body grew larger, he shed his carapace, increased the size of his muscles and also grew a larger and sharp horn. His entire body turned from brown to purple and green in color with his eyes turning all red and all of his teeth becoming sharp. He adopted a more humanoid appearance in this state.

Personality

Carnage Kabuto was an extremely mentally unstable being. Although he was extremely intelligent, his insatiable thirst for blood prompted Dr. Genus to lock him away deep underground. He considered himself far superior to humans, calling himself the 'new human' that Dr. Genus was looking for, and believed that all should submit to him. He was very sarcastic, ill-tempered, and lacked humanity, which Dr. Genus considered to have been his main flaw.

Carnage Kabuto also had an impressive natural survival instinct, which alerted him of Saitama's strength and quickly jumped away, which surprised Dr. Genus. He showed great fear of Saitama for a while, though upon hearing his lame backstory, Kabuto's headstrong nature ultimately won out and he attacked anyways.

Abilities and Powers

Being the strongest warrior of the House of Evolution and a Dragon-level threat, Carnage Kabuto boasted tremendous speed and physical strength. He was shown to be strong enough to defeat Genos easily, repelling his power blast with just a forceful breath. He was also said to be highly intelligent, but his unstable personality caused Dr. Genus to dub him a failure. Prior to fighting Gouketsu, Genos considered Carnage Kabuto the strongest opponent he ever faced. According to the VGS, Carnage Kabuto was able to defeat many A-Class and S-Class heroes; he defeated Sneck in 2.52 seconds, and Metal Bat in around 3 minutes, although Metal Bat claims the VGS did not properly simulate his fighting spirit, and Kabuto effortlessly thrashed Genos in only two hits despite the cyborg being already upgraded after the fight with Deep Sea King. However, he was defeated by Superalloy Darkshine even in Carnage Mode after 15 minutes.

Physical Abilities

Immense Strength: Being a Dragon-level threat, Carnage Kabuto possessed immense strength, able to badly damage Genos with little effort. He was also able to destroy a great deal of the fighting room and hold his own against an all-out Superalloy Darkshine for 15 minutes while in Carnage Mode.

Immense Speed and Reflexes: Despite his enormous size, Carnage Kabuto boasted exceptional speed, as he was able to move at the speed that surprised Genos and landed multiple punches on Saitama in a short amount of time. In the VGS, Carnage Kabuto was also fast enough to quickly defeat Genos in two hits without the cyborg hero being able to properly counter.

Immense Durability: Carnage Kabuto possessed immense durability, as seen when multiple clones of Dr. Genus shot him with automatic rifles and he remained totally unfazed by this. He was capable of withstanding Genos' fire attacks and his Machine Gun Blow technique without a scratch. Additionally, Carnage Kabuto managed to last 15 minutes against a fully powered Darkshine, a very powerful S-Class hero.

Immense Stamina: Carnage Kabuto possessed superhuman stamina. After transforming into Carnage Mode, he lost control, going berserk and rampaging for one week straight before finally running out of stamina.

Flight: Carnage Kabuto has wings hidden beneath his sturdy shell and used them to fly away from Saitama in fear.

Keen Instincts: Thanks to his instincts, Carnage Kabuto was able to sense the strength and threat of his opponents. This proves useful to him when he senses Saitama's power and stalls his death a while longer.

Fighting Style

Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant: Carnage Kabuto was the strongest specimen of the House of Evolution.
