So Metal Bat is capable of doing a swing which destroys a building. For doing
such a swing he would need an incredible strenght and for having that strenght
he would need a very hard body (arms and fits included). What does the bat add
here? Does Metal Bat need his bat for being more powerful? Has he ever been
shown fighting without the bat and being very powerful too?

Does Metal Bat need his bat for being more powerful?


He indeed has an incredible amount of strength. From the _One-Punch Man
Encyclopedia_ ,

> When the intensity of Metal Bat's anger reaches its maximum, his power
> approaches infinity.

Aside from that, he also has [extreme
durability](https://onepunchman.fandom.com/wiki/Bad), enabling him to take
many hits from higher-level monsters.

From [one of the omake](https://onepunchman.fandom.com/wiki/Weapon), it was
said that _he only acquired his unbreakable bat upon his promotion to S-rank_.
This means that **he does not need the unbreakable bat that was made for him
in order to defeat monsters** , as any other bat would do, albeit it would
break easily, as shown in the same omake.

Um, he needs that bat. If he reaches infinite power.... Im pretty sure that a
punch with that much force would shoot his arms of. Granted he hasn't trained
like saitama has, hence the reason why saitama hasn't had his arms shoot of
yet. If his power reached infinite, wouldn't he become as strong as saitama
himself? If that's the case, then Metal bat's arms would shoot of if he
punched with that much strength. So yes, he does need that bat.
