Mirai walks out of the dorm, Aizawa Is standing outside. She takes up a spot next to him. "So, you wanted to talk?" Aizawa said as he looked to the sky. Mirai nodded," That's correct. I don't know any heroes for my work-study, do you know of anyone?"

Aizawa scratched his cheek as he responded. "That's right, I meant to tell you. You'll be working with the Nighteye agency. They are also looking Into the Mazoku situation." Mirai nodded and headed back inside.

…

As the sound of warehouse doors opening rang out throughout the abandoned warehouse, the group Inside looked up. In came two people, one with a mask on.

"You brought a crazy big fish, huh, Twice?" Shigaraki said as he watched them approach. "Big fish? That's Ironic… League of Villians." The man accompanying Twice responded.

One of the villains, Magne, spoke up. "What? Is that guy famous?" Shigaraki responded quickly "Master showed me a picture of him before. He's what you'd call "yakuza." The young head of the Shie Hassaikai."

The members that new the relevance of the name were taken aback. "The young head of the Shie Hassaikai… So he's the number two of organized crime?" Magne said. Toga turned her head up to .

"Organized Crime, How's he different from us?" He responded enthusiastically and Informed Toga of the difference. "Frankly, they're obsolete and should be a protected species." Mr. Compress finished.

"Protected species, huh?" The man said as he closed his eyes and looked down as if deep In thought. "Well, he's not wrong." Magne spoke up again," So, why is this impoverished yakuza boy here? Are you also on a high because of All Might's retirement?"

"No, It's less about All Might and more about the loss of All For One." Shigaraki furrowed his brow as the man continued.

"The Emperor of darkness who ruled over all of the undersides of society. My generation treated him like an urban legend, but our elders believed they had a reason to fear him. Even after he was rumored to be dead."

As the man continued, Toga perked up and gave a curious glance towards one side of the warehouse. "But this time, he showed up in the flesh… All Might retired, and All For One was thrown Into Tartarus. In other words right now, for both those in the sun and those in the shadows, there is no leader."

The man looked up and stared directly at Shigaraki. "So then, who will be the next leader?" Shigaraki began walking towards the man as he responded.

"If you know who my master is, and you're still saying that… Are you trying to challenge me?" His gaze fixated on overhaul, as he spoke. "I'm the next leader. Even now, I'm gathering my troops. Our numbers will increase soon. And with the power, I'll crush hero society starting with its head."

The man was surprisingly calm as Shigaraki glared at him. The two leaders suddenly turned their gaze to the side, as footsteps approached.

"Well, If Shigaraki won't take up that offer, may I?" The new arrival wore an unbuttoned black cloak. With black hair and black eyes. Shigaraki recognized him as the person he'd seen In the photo.

"Who are you?" The man asked. The new arrival quickly answered. "My name Is Mazoku Gesshoku. I'm sure you don't know of me but, I am capable of many things." The man squinted his eyes as he examined Mazoku.

"For Instance, stealing a Nomu from the League of Villians and modifying It." Shigaraki clicked his tongue. The man seemed a bit more Intrigued while Shigaraki was looked ever more annoyed. "Go home," Shigaraki said, as he glared at the two people In front of him.

Mazoku turned around and began walking away, as Magne unveiled his weapon and charged at the man. Mazoku turned around and watched as the yakuza was pulled forward. Magne thrust his weapon towards the man.

Suddenly, Magne's upper-half exploded In a rain of dust and blood. "You all made the first move." The yakuza said as he wiped the blood off his coat. A second villain lunged forward, followed by a Third.

"Wait Compress, Toga!" Shigaraki shouted as prepared his quirk. "This guy's trouble! I'll use my compress to seal him away!" He held out his hand, as he activated the quirk.

Toga meanwhile, had pulled out her knife and swung at The yakuza. Mazoku quickly Intercepted her and stopped her blade with his own knife. Mazoku pushed her back. Her attack Interrupted, Toga stared at Mr. compress for the results.

Just as he barely touched the yakuza he exclaimed. "I can't use my Quirk?!" The yakuza yelled out In a rage. "Don't touch me!" As he whipped his arm away, taking compresses left arm with him.

Toga quickly caught Mr. Compress, who was screaming In pain, as Shigaraki burst forth. As Mazoku watched, he caught on to what was happening. The red bullet missed, and the yakuza quickly shouted. "Shield!"

Another yakuza member appeared from seemingly nowhere and blocked Shigaraki's advance. As Shigaraki lept back, the yakuza member crumbled into dust. "I see…" Shigaraki started, as the wall behind the Yakuza and Mazoku burst open.

"If you'd started with that, It would've been a lot easier to understand what you wanted." He continued, as the new arrivals all began taking positions around the Yakuza.

"That was close, Overhaul." A man in a white cloak said as he took up a place next to Overhaul. "You're late." Overhaul said as he gazed sideways at him. "I missed a shot," the cloaked yakuza said In response.

"But, there was enough Immediate effectiveness." The cloaked yakuza said as he held up a small revolver. "Wait, where did you… we weren't being followed!" Twice exclaimed as he turned worriedly to Shigaraki.

"It was probably someone's quirk." Shigaraki deduced as Overhaul rubbed his sleeve. "It'll be hard to make objective decisions like this. Right. It's unproductive to cut down each other's forces, anyway. We're even right now with one corpse on each side. It's a good time to stop. Let's cool our heads and talk again another day, we'll owe you an arm."

As he began leaving through the broken wall, he turned to Mazoku. "You, come with us. I think I'll be able to find a use for you." Mazoku nodded and began walking out with Overhaul. Overhaul stopped after a bit and spoke to the league.

"It doesn't have to be right away, but the sooner the better. Think carefully… about your own organization and stuff. Give me a call once you've calmed down a bit." He then walked out with the other yakuza members, as the league tried to regain their composure.

…

Akihito stared at his phone with a grim expression. He was looking at a photo of Mirai, the girl he loved. The sound of the Literary club's door opening caused him to wearily lookup. The familiar face of Mitsuki greeted him.

"You look terrible," She said, as she set her bag down on the table. Akihito yawned, as Mitsuki sat down and took out a book from her bag. "I still can't accept It…" He said, as his brow twitched.

Mitsuki looked to Akihito's hand, as she addressed him. "It has been six months. I understand you're still shaken by It but… Its time you accept what happened." Akihito bites back a retort, as he moved one hand to his arm.

As his grip on his arm strengthened, Mitsuki narrowed her eyes. "I know that! Its just…" tears began forming under his eyes, as he struggled to find the proper words. "It doesn't make sense. She wouldn't just leave without telling us…" He eked out as he tried to control himself.

Mitsuki set her book down and glared at Akihito. "Control yourself." Akihito glared back, as he yelled. "I know! Its just… after all we went through to get her back, she vanishes again… this time we're powerless. We can't do anything."

As his speech began being broken up by sobs, Mitsuki got up from her seat. She calmly walked over to him, taking note of his gradually transforming hand, as she put a hand on his shoulder. Akihito then sobbed harder, as his hand gradually transformed back Into his regular hand.

Mitsuki calmly embraced Akihito who didn't bother holding In his tears, as he sobbed Into Mitsuji's embrace. The two of them sat like that until Akihito finally managed to calm down.
