Somewhere near Hosu City, Tokyo, Japan
During the time beyond the demise of the Hero Killer and the attack by the League of Villains, Hosu City was an uneasy place where the crime rate was above average compared to other wards in Tokyo. Because of this, Mino generally makes various patrols with his sidekicks, using his Quirk to gather intelligence and support while his sidekicks do the dirty work. Passing by a police precinct, he'd enter by the glass doors with blue markings.
"Konnichiwa." he'd greet the officer close to him with a metallic voice, bowing fifteen degrees.
The officer nods. Shortly after, Mino passed by the officer to enter the room where the assistant commissioner of the station was located. Opening the metal door that separated the hallway to his office. His metal-like costume passing the door, almost to the point of being an exoskeleton.
"Assistant Commissioner." Mino announced as he'd take off his metallic mask, his voice changing to be more of a normal voice.
"Get out." ordered the assistant commissioner, his voice appearing like he smoked too much with age amplifying it.
"Don't be grumpy, a deal can be struck that will be mutual to both of us." Mino pleaded with a more calm tone, moving his left hand outwards, facing the window towards the Hosu City skyline.
"Hero or not, you didn't make an appointment, so get out." the assistant commissioner ordered with a more grumpy tone.
Mino's face turns from being friendly to neutral, shifting the tone of the conversation.
"You see, what could you have done during the incident a few months ago? Could you tip the scale between life and death? Or would you allow the bad guys to win with all death?" he'd question the assistant commissioner, pointing his right index finger towards the ceiling, the gray glove on his hands present to see, moving it vertically relative to his palm to represent life and death.
"What do you want then, Soundwave." the assistant commissioner replied reluctantly, his voice calmed down to a more gruff and not as much as his angry voice, his shoulders less tense.
"I was thinking, since Hosu City has a higher crime rate compared to the other wards in Tokyo, this deal I propose will benefit us both." Mino explained.
"Go on." the assistant commissioner interrupted, nodding his head to continue.
"In exchange for providing me and my agency protection against Transist and his cronies in Hosu City, my agency will provide support with crime suppression." Mino concluded, sitting down at the wooden chair at the assistant commissioner's desk.
"If we want to agree with this decision, who will lead and fund the suppression program?" asked the assistant commissioner.
"I could use the fortune I had from my family, but my oto-san passed away recently. And two, my main sidekick will be taking care of my end of the bargain." Mino replied.
"Can you bring him in?" the assistant commissioner asked.
"Potto, come in!" Mino ordered, waving his hand as a gesture to make him come in.
Potto approached the desk, sporting a medium red gi with dark red long sleeved shirt with, and a few thin blue marks barely visible. His blue green hair, spiky and standing up contrasting to his tan skin.
"Potto, notify twenty five percent of the sidekicks to head to our outpost in Tokyo." Mino ordered.
"Right away Soundwave." Potto replied, saluting quickly before rushing out of the office.
As Potto exit the office, the door closed slowly.
"Regarding about the money, one of my allies outside my family's agency sphere of influence will take the brunt of the financing." Mino announced regarding the financing of the program. "Do we have a deal now?" he'd ask.
"We do have a deal." replied the assistant commissioner, smiling as he'd got up.
Mino gets up too, both shortly later bowing fifteen degrees. He'd turn away out of the assistant commissioner's office, exiting the precinct a few minutes later.

Soundwave Hero Agency Outpost, Tokyo, Japan
The outpost was actually the top of an apartment building with slight oversight over Tokyo, a group of twelve sidekicks doing stupid crap outside of hero work, drinking, smoking, and fighting for no reason, but when the stakes come out and the leaders of the agency come up, they become as respectful as the average person to their superiors.
"Nice one, Fuiis-bō." a drunk sidekick slurred to one of them with the family name Fuiis.
The outpost was silent, everyone looking at Sidekick 11.
"Baka!" Sidekick 4 hissed, sharing the same sentiments as the other ten sidekicks.
Suddenly, another one of the sidekicks hooked another, instigating the other sidekicks into roughhousing. One of them rammed their chest into another, slamming them down into a dangerous position. Suddenly, the roughhousing came to an end with the arrival of Potto, his face stern, a blue, smooth flowing aura surrounding him.
"Bring it to an end, pay attention." Potto ordered.
Every sidekick except Sidekick 11 stood in lines in front of Potto.
"Your goal is to suppress crime in Hosu City, that's why you're here. Second, no more roughhousing." Potto announced to the sidekicks.
"WE ARE SORRY, POTTO-SAN!" The sidekicks apologized to Potto, begging on their knees for mercy.
"You are forgiven, now get up, gain rest, and prepare for work tomorrow."
The sidekicks got back up on their feet, recomposed now with leadership back in charge. Witnessing his exit past the room, his heavy boots vibrating the room. In another room, Mino was in an office area looking at a picture of Momo in her early childhood he had on hand in stressful situations like rising to become the new Yaoyorozu patriarch.
"Miyasaki-kun has fucked up big time for trying to hurt you. It will be proven he will be defeated decisively by my agency and I'll rise up, even if he's older than me, Momo-chan." Mino muttered with Potto in the distance.

"After an hour of searching, my intelligence board now have where you need to strike, head towards this location, my elite group of sidekicks will be at your disposal along with those under your command." Transist said to Tolin, giving him a picture of U.A.
