Now onto the actual story
Several heroes had gathered a block away from what was (rather poorly) masked as an old factory for a product that was exported overseas, But in actuality was the main hideout for Burn.
There were a lot of policemen and healers present on the scene that were ready to spring into action at any moment.
Even if the none of the top 10 heroes were involved, all of them that were present knew that this was a very important mission.
The plan that all of them had in mind was very simple. Due to having a lot of underground heroes on the mission with stealth being their strong suite it was decided that the heavy hitters would make it look like an upfront attack and grab their attention.
During all of this the underground heroes would approach from the back and directly attack the lab in which the samples of the new Trigger were stored.
This would effectively win the mission and would also form an unexpected pincer formation which would be able to get them victory.
Dekiru himself had been assigned to the heavy hitters considering that he could do a lot of damage using his quirk(s but anyone didn't need to know about that).
There were around 10 other heroes that were with him including Air Head whose quirk was perfect for this kind of job.
One would normally think that water quirk users should have been called to the mission,
However many of the quirks that generated fire were different from the usual fires that were produced, And some fire quirks could outright overpower water quirks.
In a heat triangle the material that was burning might very well be different in every quirk, but one thing that was always a constant in fire was air.
As Izuku and the heroes were lined up infront of the compound he took a moment to observe his surroundings. The civilians had been expertly evacuated by the HPSC.
The outer gate was an giant old metal one with a fire symbol resting on top of it. They could catch a glimpse of the inside where the main building was. There was another wooden door present on the inside.
"Should we do an all out attack or just enough to grab their attention" One of the heroes asked.
They were currently waiting for the underground heroes to signal them to start the attack.
"All out." said Air head who was standing next to him. "We want the entire compound to run towards us. Blow away as much as you want."
Air Head while in tense situations always had a leader like personality apart from his usual sheepish demenoar.
Hearing this all of the heroes said words of agreement and procceded to charge up their quirks.
Dekiru, not wanting to left behind charged up an Invisible Shockwave on both of his palms while charging up One for All in his body at 10%.
As soon as they received their signal which came in the form of a radio message all hell broke loose on the compound as the pro heroes released their attacks collectively.
Dekiru sprung forwards and jumped over the metal door which had been already destroyed (Courtesy of Air head and the other heroes) and slammed both of his hands on the wodden front door of the compound.
Invisible Shockwave was one of the moves in Izuku's arsenal that could blow away huge portions of concrete walls easily.
So when doing his starting attack he was expecting the door to be blown away and do some damage to the inside but what he wasn't expecting was the entire front wall to collapse like glass.
Dumbfounded from this sudden increase in power Izuku gasped at it and asked himself.
'Did One for All enhance my quirk too??'
However this wasn't the time to theorize and he knew it so he focused on the scene infront of him.
He saw one of the men who had recovered from the initial attack send a fireball towards him.
He raised his hands quickly and created a vacuum right in front of him and the projectile as it got pulled in a nullified effortlessly.
Watching his attack get turned into nothingness had made the man's jaw dropped to the floor.
Deciding that grabbing more attention was the best course of action he lunged at the man and delivered a 10 % smash to the man's solar plexus which made him immediately pass out.
"Come at me you bastards." Dekiru shouted which was very out of character for him but was perfect for a situation like this.
Soon the other heroes that were still standing at the outer door and were gawking at the display of power joined in with him.
The operation was going rather well when Dekiru decided that was a good idea to contact the heroes in the other side.
As he stopped fighting and fell back a bit he used his radio in attempt to contact his allies.
The heroes were doing a good job holding back the members and had the upper hand in quirk usage too.
However when Izuku called them he was only answered by the crackle of static of the radio.
This was rather concerning. The leader still hadn't shown up.
He charged up One for All and shot forwards joining up his allies once again.
"Hey Air Head." He shouted while having towards the pro.
"Yeah what's going on." Air Head says not looking away from the opponents while sending huge gusts of winds.
"Do you mind if I go ahead for a bit you'll have to make a distraction for me. The underground heroes aren't responding we need to regroup with them." Says Dekiru who was charging up an air shot and fired it towards one of the the guys that was giving him trouble.
As the guy got flunged into a wall Dekiru looked around check what the situation was.
The heroes were overwhelming the villains by a good amount but we're being stalemated a bit by the sheer numbers.
'If this goes on we'll win but the underground heroes aren't responding. Could they have encountered the leader'
"Yeah I can create a distraction all right." Shouted Air Head as he pushed his hands back and let out of huge gust of wind that pushing back a lot of villains.
Seeing an opening Izuku shot forwards sending One for All 10 % to his legs.
After running out of the earlier location he found himself in a long hallway.
For a solid minute Izuku thought that the hallway was infinite,after that he saw a door to his left which was giving off a slightly blue hue.
But at he peeked inside he saw a sight that made his blood freeze.
In what looked like a laboratory most of the underground heroes were lying unconscious or were on the verge of passing out.
On a pile of bodies there was somebody was looking up smugly while cackling in laughter.
Said somebody was actually the leader of the cartel that they were raiding.
"Yu Tanka's quirk allows him to raise fires from the ground surrounding him. The temperatures of these flames are high enough to melt metal. The best course of action is to keep your distance to him."
Noticing Dekiru's presence the man turned around.
"Oh another insignificant ant joins the pack is it?"
The villain said in a mocking tone while walking towards him.
'He trying to close in the distance while mocking me. Meaning I'm out of his range right now.Using One for All right now is out of the option.' Dekiru thought as he decided against close quarters combat.
'He defeated all those heroes meaning he's pretty strong. But he must also be exhausted from all of that.'
"Oh I'll show you what insignificant means you bastard." Dekiru shouted angrily.
He charged up a convergence bringing his palms palms fowards and shit it to the villain's chest.
Seeing the attack rapidly approaching him the man instinctively activated his quirk due to which flames rose from the ground and reached to the top of his body in height.
However this really didn't help the situation as the convergence arrow just merged with the flames and then proceeded to hit him on the chest which sent him flying to the wall.
Knowing that the attack wasn't going to keep him there for too much Dekiru called the heavy hitters for backup.
"Hello Air Head can you hear me?" Asked Dekiru while walking towards the downed heroes.
" Yeah what's up back there? These bastards aren't putting up much of a show right now." Air head said over the radio with sounds of several shouts and sounds of quirk usage were heard on the other side.
"All the underground heroes are down right now.I have eyes on the leader, Try to finish up back there quickly" He said as he saw the villain get up once again.
'Man he's getting up that quickly, Guess I'll have to stall him for a bit.'
"Can't do buddy, Most of them might be weaklings but they're putting up a damn good wall right now."
'Were they planning from the start to take help of the boss?'
"Shit, Try your best I'll try to stall him as much as possible."
'I need to get to an open space. He has advantage in a closed of area like this.Which means I better..'
As Dekiru saw the man fully get up he turned around flaring up One for all in his entire body and punched the wall behind him. The wall broke apart easily revealing the open area that was present in the middle of the compound.
'If I jump down there he might be able to get reinforcements,But I'll have to take that risk right now.'
Dekiru jumped out of the giant hole that he had made in the wall wanting his opponent to do the same.
"You bastard you think you can just hurt me and get away with it." The now recovered enemy shouted rage and a hurt ego imminent in his voice as he tailed Dekiru.
While bolting out Dekiru made sure that he kept a good amount of distance between them.
As both of them landed the hero crouched down and charged up an air shot on both of his palms.
'If I use my vacuums at the right time I'll be able to evade the effect of his fires. I'll have to go on for a bit,I still don't know what his range is yet so all of this could very well be a bluff. No I'll have too react quickly with each move.Be ready for anything.'
After contemplating the plan of action Dekiru lunged forwards and fired one Air shot towards the mans head.
Seeing that the convergence arrow earlier had done some bad damage to him the man had now realized that the best option right now was to dodge so he sidestepped the attack.
"You fool you're in my range." He shouted as flames rose up from Dekiru's legs.
Seeing the incoming attack Dekiru instantly made the most powerful vacuum he could and saw as most of the flames got sucked in and jumped away.
'That attack just touched me for a second and it hurts so bad.' Dekiru who had now fallen back and crouching a bit thought.
'Change of plans if he tags me multiple times then I'm done, I'll have to use both One for All and Aerokinesis at the same time.If I'm fast enough I can dodge the flames manually and if my hunch about One for All enhancing my quirk then maybe I can nullify his flames faster.'
As he got up the villain charged towards him.
Not wanting to get caught up in flames Dekiru jumped back,All the while charging 2 OFA powered air shots.
Convergence needed too much of a charge up time to be used against this type of opponent.
As he brought one of his palms forward and released the shot it directly landed on the man's chest knocking all air out of the man's lung and forced him to wheeze.
Seeing this Izuku jumped forwards and punched the guy straight into the chest further damaging him and sending him back a few meters.
However flames rose up from the ground and tried to attack Dekiru.
Seeing the surprise attack Dekiru quickly created a vacuum infront of himself and the flames.
Earlier due to his vacuum not being powerful enough the fire had managed to hurt him. But when using it in tandem with One for All the flames weren't able to even get close to him.
There villain was still a bit damaged but was now standing upright.
"Don't get so cocky bastard I was holding back on you. But now I'm gonna kill you" the villain shouted as the ground surrounding him all lit up in flames for about 10 meters.
Seeing the sudden increase in power Izuku couldn't help but gawk.
'So he was holding back. For good reason though. I doubt he can keep this up for long. He's on time right now. Also I have a clear idea of his range now.'
Not wanting to get caught up in flames was proven very hard for the next minute for Izuku as he was constantly pushed back by the villain.
He was only barely dodging every attack from the boss.
'At this rate he's gonna win. I have to find a good counter for this. Momentarily creating vacuums isn't enough even with One for All. His firepower is to strong to be overpowered in a second.'
Our hero thought as he was almost got in the chest with a flame. While it didn't land cleanly it still did some damage.
' How is he able to hold his firepower for so long'
He asked himself breath ragged and his hero suit in shambles.
'Wait,Hold maybe if I use One for All I can'
As he created a vacuum on top of his head instead of letting it go like normal he did something different... he held onto it.
The air when rushed into fill the vaccum got instantly emptied out and even more air rushed in to take it's place.
'Great this'll with, But I won't be able to use Aerokinesis right now. Maybe Convergence but not my normal air shots. Meaning that to win this battle I'll have to rely on One for All.'
He cocked back his fist flaring One for All throughout his entire body as white lightning danced around his form.
He lunged forward not forgetting to make a vacuum infront of him looking to end this battle.
Seeing the hero come towards him the villain laughed manically as he shouted." Bastard you think you can get near me, I'll turn you into ashes."
As he finshed a literal wall of flames rose up from the ground around him leaving no way of approach
However a hero is somebody who paves for himself when there is none left.
As Dekiru closed in on his target all of the flames directly infront of him got nullified immediately revealing the villain's body.
As he reached his opponent Dekiru pushed up the amount of One for All that he was using to 13% and planted his fist firmly into the man's chest.
The villain was hit with what seemed like a truck at high speeds as he got thrown away many meters before landing roughly onto the ground making a huge crack where he halted.
As the adrenaline faded away from his body Dekiru felt a wave of fatigue was over him and almost collapsed in the ground.
"Damn he was a tough one." He said to nobody in particular as she stood up again with a shaky and breath and when more shaking hands.
As he walked slowly towards the hole in the wall that they had made during the start of their battle he pushed 3 % in his legs and scaled the height.
'13% really didn't hurt did it?' he mused as he bright up got right hand to check any signs it damage only to find it A - okay.
As he made his way to the hallway limping a bit from the earlier injuries he saw the heroes running towards him through the hallway he had entered from earlier.
Waving to catch their attention Izuku couldn't help but release a relieved sigh.
