Tanktop Tiger and Tanktop Black Hole were guarding a restricted area cordoned off by the Hero Association. He wonders why they're doing such a task when they're supposed to be heroes and not jobbers. He gets startled as Saitama shows up with a little girl,  and both Tanktoppers demand to know what he's doing there, as only designated heroes selected by the officer in charge are allowed into the isolated zone that they're guarding. To his surprise, the latter nonchalantly states that he's one of those. Despite the circumstance, he and Black Hole allow him to go in knowing the full consequence if they try to stop him.
