The plane along with the Galaxy King were flying high in the sky as they headed towards New York.
"New York City. No matter what dimension, it's always the same thing. Superhero Central." Hope said.
"Avengers, Spiderman, you name it." Al said.
"But, we won't find any of them there. They're far away from this world. This world has its own heroes and the ones in New York don't even need to hide their identities." Izuku said.
"Must be nice for them. For Ladybug and Cat Noir however, it has to remain secret." Hope said. "And with Adrien here with us, if he suits up as Cat Noir, it will be bad. He was entrusted to defend Paris while Ladybug's away."
"That's pretty much what happens when you're forced to hide your secret identities from each other." Leopardmon said. "Shenanigans like this ensue."
"Uh...does that count as Shenanigans?" Luffy asked, pointing out the window to a blue man landing on the wing of the plane.
"Oh...not good." Miles said.
"Why?" Frosta asked.
"That's Mike Rochip aka Techno Pirate. He's a villain that steals technology." Miles said as they saw the villain taking energy from the wing of the plane.
"We have to do something." Ajna said.
"Um, Ajna? I think the situation is already being handled." Hope said as a robotic being dressed like an egyptian queen flew alongside the plane and synched with its sound system.
"That's Uncanny Valley, the android hero. Which means…." Miles said as they saw a woman dressed in red and blue flying by. "Majestia! This world's answer to Superman and Wonder Woman...combined."
"Oh yeah, we saw Animaestro turn into an animated version of her." Saki said.
Majestia flew under the plane and used her super strength to hold it up. Meanwhile, a large bulky man in an owl themed costume, alongside a smaller boy in a suit.
"And there's Knightowl and Sparrow. This world's answer to Batman and Robin." Miles said.
"Very different from how Darkowl looks." Simon said.
"Techno Pirate, you're under arrest." Knightowl declared before easily defeating the villain without any help from Sparrow. "Your escape ends here."
Uncanny Valley then repaired the turbine of the plane as Majestia flew by the window. "Citizens...welcome to the United States. Enjoy your stay." she said.
"Whoa...that was kinda awesome." Eri said.
"Hoo Hoo. Now comes...the Owl." Damocles said coming out of the bathroom. "Now I'll…"
"Battle's over man." Tetsutetsu said.
"Oh." Damocles said, depressed as he went to change back.
"Wow...it happened so fast, we didn't even need to help them. Guess it's the code of the country. Let the American's handle their own problems." Poinsettia said.
"Yeah. Although, it is nice to see heroes in other parts of this world." Sachiko said.
"Yeah. Feels really nice to rely on them after the whole Regime fiasco." David said. "Yeah, don't ask."
"Don't worry. We've been traveling with Reformed Society long enough to get the jist of it by now." Sachiko said.
"So, is it true that they couldn't come?" Aruma asked.
"Yeah. For obvious reasons. It's for the best, though." David said.
"They may have freedom in some universes but they are still considered criminals here." Sachiko said. "Though given how there are multiple DC worlds in the Hero Universe, I can kinda understand."
"They said it themselves. They have their counterparts' reputations on their heads." David said. "The Hero Universe tends to be very judgy about that kind of stuff."
It wasn't long before they landed in New York and were riding on a bus headed for the hotel.
"Are we all staying at the same hotel? That's a coincidence." Tsuyu said.
"How ignorant. Of course you are staying in this hotel." a commanding voice called out as standing on the stairs was a boy in white with piercing red eyes.
"No way...Taka is here too?" Hope said.
"Uh...who?" Adora asked.
"Ishimaru Kiyotaka...the Ultimate Moral Compass." Hope said.
"Hey there, Taka. It's been a while since we heard from you." David said.
"Likewise." he said. "However, I never forget a truant like you. The itinerary says to arrive exactly at five. You are 3 seconds late!"
"(3 seconds is kind of stretching it, don't you think?)" David thinks to himself.
"Oh yeah, Spider Gwen mentioned he was a stickler for the rules." Al said.
"It's Ghost Spider, actually." a voice said as the girl in question came up behind Taka along with another girl dressed in blue with a lightning bolt on it.
"Oh gosh...the actual Hero Alliance! This is...kinda awesome." she said.
"Ms. Marvel, Ghost Spider, it's good to see you both again." Miriam said.
"But...why are they here?" ZS asked.
"They work under me. They're members of the Hero Foundation." Taka said.
"Hero Foundation?" Hope said. "Wow, Taka. I didn't know you formed a hero team since you came back."
"Of course. When the coalition fell, something needed to fill its place, to fight back against injustice. So...with funding from a number of universes, the Hero Foundation was born. So far, we are just made up of heroes from the Marvel part of the Hero Universe." Taka said.
"Ishimaru's a bit of a stiff, but he's a great leader." Ghost Spider said. "He knows exactly what to do in a jam."
"So what brings you guys here?" Hope asked.
"We're on official hero business." Ms. Marvel said. "We're investigating all the recent moves made by the NUV."
"She means the New Universal Villains." Ghost Spider said. "Can't tell you how many laughed every time she said NUV."
"That's weird. Before we got here, we thought they were strapped for resources. Between their loss of Cell and their latest akumatization of Mr. Pigeon, they were assumed to be running out of ideas." Glimmer said.
"That's why they've been searching for recruits. I don't know if you have heard, but there was an attack on the Central City Museum a few days ago." David said.
"He's right. A villain calling herself Rejuvie brought to life ancient Pokémon fossils. But, she was foiled by a hero group calling itself Ginhana Sky." Ms. Marvel said.
"Ginhana Sky? Those Pokémon from the rescue teams?" Eri asked.
"Yes. And a number of incidents like this have happened in multiple locations across the worlds. While some succeeded, a number have also failed with the villains' arrest. All of them claimed to be part of the same group." Taka said.
"So, either Techno has been really busy since we last saw him, or that speech he gave during Heroes Day has started taking effect and they're all taking inspiration." Mark said. "Maybe both."
"Be as it may, we're keeping an eye out for him." Taka said.
"As soon as we see something, we'll collaborate with United Heroes and take them down." Ms. Marvel said. "You guys don't really need to do anything here."
"Yeah. US heroes around here are really picky about doing stuff themselves." Ghost Spider added. "They almost stopped us from doing our investigating just because Ishimaru was Japanese."
"Geez, discriminative much?" Kagura asked.
"Do not be disrespectful towards those older than us. They are simply doing their duty." Ishimaru said.
"Their land, their rules, Kagura." Alphamon said.
"Tch, whatever." Kagura said.
"Either way, enjoy your stay in the states." Ishimaru said bowing before the three of them departed for their rooms.
"Well, that was an interesting little tidbit, wasn't it?" Tsumugi asked.
"Seems a lot of moves are being made without our notice." Jexi said.
"Yeah. I get the feeling we didn't come here for any old reason." David said. "Also, I hope you all don't mind that we're wearing our uniforms for this trip."
"Well Yu and the others always seem to wear their uniforms during the time they helped us out, so it's no problem." X said.
"Still...feels like something big is going to go down in New York." Hope said.
As they settled in that night, they were unaware of a certain group's arrival.
"Ah...start spreading the news...we're standing here today." Techno said.
"Good old New York, New York." DaDan said.
