Chapter 33:


"Why can't we wait til Overhole is back? I want to clobber that shithead." Rappa complained as Twice parked the car just a few blocks away from Overhaul's mansion. The ruckus they started was a good enough distraction to get the snake out of its hiding hole. "Seriously, are we really gonna do a boring ambush?"

"The guards will have to do. Just don't hurt the ones wearing green. They're loyalists to my gramps." Murray answered his guardian as they walked to the back entrance of the mansion. Izuku quietly inspected his guns while Twice had his measuring tape ready. Murray snuck up to the first guard he saw and decapitated him instantly. Izuku lockpick the door and they all went inside. "Okay, here's the plan, you, Twice, and Rappa deal with the guards while I get Eri outta here."

"Roger that. Didn't roger that." The three nodded and went their way. It didn't take even five seconds before the first guard let out a girlish scream followed by gunshots. Murry rolled his eyes for their lack of subtlety. He wished he still had his quirk, it would've been easier to sneak around in his smoke form. Unfortunately, his own father saw him as nothing more than a guinea pig.

"Hopefully they never figure out how to make the quirk killer bullets." Murry thought to himself as he killed another guard loyal to Overhaul. Once he reached the door, he made sure that no one else was inside before coming in. On the bed was a terrified little girl clutching her pillow tightly as she was woken up by the sound of gunfires. She became less tense when she saw Murry.

"Hey, Eri. Your big bro is here. About time we both got out of this." Murry said to her. She ran to him as he reached out to her. He carried the girl in his arms and gave her a pistol. "Don't forget what I taught you now, lil sis. We're almost outta here. After that, we can go anywhere we want. You can even go to school if you wanna."

"...Really?"

"Yeah, really." This time, Murry was sure they could. He pulled out his phone and tapped on something. "All right, they'll be here in about a few minutes."


Hero's Meeting Point


"Sir!" Centipeder alerted Nighteye of the sudden beeping of the tracking device. Every hero present faced the large TV screen in front of Nighteye. "The boy has done what was promised."

"So that's where Overhaul was located."

"Located?! What were you hiding from us?" Fat Gum asked Nighteye, realizing he was locked out of the loop. Ryukyu and Eraserhead would like to know who the hero struck a deal with as well.

"It seems that an enemy of ours found a common enemy vile enough to be willing to work with us to some extent." Nighteye held out and revealed the evidence pile that was stolen from the Hero Public Safety Commission Vault.

"Is it the League?" Shinso raised his hand, staying quiet before, but can't help but let his suspicions be known.

"You are correct." The answer made almost everyone in the room freak out. Shinso shook his head and snickered to himself. "Yes, two of their representatives, the Australian and Civil War willingly went to my office to propose a deal that they know I simply can't refuse. The quirk eraser bullets that you've encountered, Fat Gum, was a mere prototype. Overhaul has already developed a few complete versions."

"If this plan of yours goes wrong, those bullets would end up being used by a different group of villains. The League is especially more active in their crimes than that of any other group. They're highly efficient and very strategic on where they strike." Ryukyu voiced her concerns, in which Nighteye has already taken into consideration.

"That is true, but shortly after their visit, another one contacted me. He is affiliated with them, however, he isn't a part of their group. A Yakuza willing to defect."

"Another one of Overhaul's goons?" Eraserhead asked.

"No, not entirely. He is Overhaul's son. He was the first victim of the perfected quirk killer bullet." Nighteye answered him. "There is no time. We need to pick up the pieces and get there before they execute the villain."

"I'll run ahead, sir." Mirio didn't need to wait for Nighteye to say anything before disappearing into the floor. Shinso was still annoyed at how he easily got knocked out by the blonde hero. He himself stood up and readied his gear. Knowing Izuku, they'll be making short work of the place. Kirishima tapped his shoulder.

"Does Mina know all this?" Kirishima asked him. Shinso shook his head. He was telling the truth. Izuku has gone dead quiet for the last week. That's how they knew the League was scheming for something. He just didn't expect it to coincide with his current mission. "I know he's a pretty cool guy and all, but what does she see in him?"

"Trust me, I don't even know myself. The blasted heart does what it wants." Shinso is confident enough to say that Izuku is his best friend, but he has to admit that the guy is bordering on sociopathy even if he's nice. Or as nice as a hero-killing villain can be.

"Says the guy who married his mechanic from the Support Department for tax benefits."

"Yeah, shut up." Shinso laughed it off. He held his kusarigama tight, inching to get another crack at Izuku.


Back at the Mansion


Izuku's gun was ripped from his hand by some masked guy. Not that it affected him since he still had something special to use against Toya Setsuno and his gang. It's unlike anything else he had before. He abandoned knives in favour of blunt instruments. Here he has a good ol' hammer he bought from a hardware store using All For One's credit card. He still can't believe he wasn't recognized by the store clerks. He didn't waste any time as he ran towards the gangster who stole his revolver and dodged past his friends. Twice was already there to back him up when he used the measuring tape to bind the other two into submission.

Setsuno also stole his hammer, but he was already expecting that, closing his dominant hand and punching the gangster in the nose. He then formed a palm and struck his throat. It was followed by a kick to the balls, not because it was necessary, but because he just wanted to kick him in the balls. Setsuno could not even let out a shriek of pain before passing out.

"Nice hit, boss! Eh, that was lame." Twice praised Izuku. Izuku amusingly shook his head before picking up his weapons. The explosives have mostly been set up. The entrance was all that was left.

"Hey, runts! You better not think this is over cause they're all coming." Rappa bursts into the room with glee. A gangster behind him was about to hit him with an ice-formed fist, but Rappa was not phased by the attack. He chuckled while punching the poor yakuza into the ground. Izuku rolled his eyes before firing at the wall. The bullet bounced off multiple times, hitting three people. "Show off."

"Good to see you, homies." Mokemuri came through a wall. His sword was currently coated with a mix of blood and some strange liquid. He was already holding Eri, who herself was holding a pistol. "Sorry, I was busy dealing with Mimic. This liquid right here is the quirk killer drug extracted from the bullet."

*bzzt… twice… bzztt… start measuring… bzztt…* Izuku used his tape recorder. Twice did not hesitate to oblige as he started gently measuring Eri. He noticed Mokemuri's worry, but he decided to ignore it. They won't be a problem again after this is over.

"Kid, when was the last time anyone fed you properly? Eat chips, they're healthy for you!" Twice asked Eri to try to calm her down, but the girl still remained guarded. "We'll blow up the bad man who did this to you! We'll blow him up."

*Bang Bang Bang*

Izuku fired three more shots from his revolver, taking down nine more people. Rappa and Mokemuri were not letting up either, fighting off waves that got too close to them. It was then and there that Mokemuri's phone began to ring. Overhaul was calling him. He picked it up.

"Father?"

"Where are you?"

"Busy killing your loyalists in your mansion, bye! Oh, and I'm taking Eri with me." He hung up before he could get a response. Rappa laughed, and Izuku chuckled at the audacity.

"And here I thought you don't have any balls, runt."

"Hey, you're the one who raised me, not him." Mokemuri bit back at Rappa. The three men started pushing through the wave of Yakuza coming after them while Twice made sure that Eri stays safe. It turns out the girl was a pretty good aim when she shot the leg of the guy who was about to hit Rappa. They were dragging every unconscious man out with a wagon, wanting to keep the heroes and police busy by getting them arrested. Soon, the ones loyal to Mokemuri had met with them. They were pushing a comatose old man on a stretcher. "Take gramps and these unconscious guys out by the back entrance. We'll take care of the big man."

Rappa dodged a bullet coming right at him and rushed the shooter, punching him into next week. Izuku used the corners and the turns as cover as he continued shooting everyone that tried to kill them. Mokemuri was way too busy using his nodachi to slice bullets in half.

"DIE!" Another Overhaul loyalist came from the ceiling, courtesy of their quirk. They landed in front of Izuku and fired the gun aimed at his head. Before Mokemuri or Twice could do anything, the bullet did not hit its intended target. Izuku caught it with his hand. The yakuza, being too distracted, did not notice Rappa about to pulverize them into the ground.

"Kid, that is the coolest and manliest thing I've ever seen. Hey you!" Rappa pointed at another Overhaul loyalist trying to sneak up on him. "Try that thing with me. I wanna outmanly this kid."

"How did you do that?!" Twice asked Izuku. He finally noticed that the boy himself was too shocked to realize what he did. "Huh, good reflex. Bad reflex."

"Come on, homie, that was cool and all, but we're almost at the entrance." Mokemuri had a point. They were literally one door away from the entrance. Everyone but them is no longer in the mansion. "We're almost outta this, lil sis."

It didn't take them long to set up the final explosives. Instead of a C4, they had sticks of dynamite tied by the door. Rappa, Twice, Mokemuri, and Eri then went outside to hide under a bush, much to the big guy's disappointment. Still, Eri is not someone that Rappa wants to disappoint. Mokemuri himself didn't care much about facing his father. All that needs to be said was already said at the night he lost his quirk. It just so happens that instead of a heroic victory, he was given a loss. At this point, Izuku just wants to avenge Magne, and he's fine with letting him take the reins.

They heard a car stop just at the gate. When it opened, it was Overhaul. After all this time, he was still tempted to jump out there with a sword in hand to take the man's head off his shoulders. He only stopped when he remembered Eri was beside him. His vendetta was not worth risking his sister's safety.

Minutes later, new people arrived, this time the heroes. They were already out in the open at this point. The police rushed in faster, telling them to raise their hands. All three guys ignored them. Only Eri felt scared of the heroes aiming at their back.


The man himself entered the house. No one was there to greet them or to even report anything. Was Mokemuri bluffing?

"I'll check every corner of the house, boss." Kurono told Overhaul. Nemoto nodded along, wanting to be of use to his master.

"You won't need to check anything, when all of you are gonna be too busy burning in hell." A voice came from upstairs, directly in front of them. All three were alerted. Nobody recognized that voice. Out from the shadows came a familiar face to them. Fury can be seen behind those eyes of his. "Bet you weren't expecting the League to retaliate this fast."

"Civil War…" Overhaul whispered venomously. Of all the years he survived by resetting his own age, only one group has given him such frustrations in a short amount of time.

"Oh, great. You know me. At least now you know why I'm here. You get what you paid for, and Tomura has sent me to give you the receipt." Izuku said while glaring at them. Nemoto and Kurono moved first. Kurono used his quirk to try to incapacitate Izuku while Nemoto drew his gun.

*BANG BANG*

Izuku was faster to draw his revolver, shooting both of Overhaul's henchmen in the head. They fell to the floor, dead. "Anyway, Overhaul, or was it The Gynecologist? Or whatever identity you change into every forty years. I have to say, I'm surprised that you didn't think The League wouldn't retaliate. You think we're scared of you?"

Overhaul said nothing, preparing to strike as soon as Izuku reached the stairway. What he didn't expect was that the kid wasn't one to take any chances. The benefits of being quirkless are knowing the dangers of quirked people. Izuku shot first again, the first bullet being explosive, destroying Overhaul's left arm.

"Gah!" The yakuza leader stumbled backwards. He tried to heal himself using his quirk, but this time Izuku shot the other arm off with another explosive bullet. "You son of a-"

*BANG*

One more bullet, this time to the testicles. Overhaul howled in pain, but he wasn't given any time to recover. Izuku didn't need to do that, but Overhaul earned the right to be shot in the balls. The villain has been alive for too long. Considering what he did to a little girl to further his goals, Izuku might even argue that Overhaul is worse than them. Though, if one has to go to the very basis of reasoning, Izuku simply wants to shoot Overhaul's testicles.

*BANG*

One final bullet in the chamber was fired at the wall before bouncing off and hitting both Overhaul's kneecaps, rendering the villain helpless on the ground. Now, with no limbs to use, all Overhaul could do was squirm desperately while crying in pain.

"Doc, Paul is busy. Can you get us transport?" Izuku used his communicator to contact Doc Tsubasa.

"Tomura has already foreseen this. Your escape is on its way. Do what you're tasked with doing."

"YOU LISTEN HERE! YOU'RE DEAD! YOU THINK YOU CAN GET AWAY WITH THIS?! THOSE PLAGUED HEROES WILL BE COMING FOR YOU NEXT. MARK MY WORDS!" Overhaul was rambling on and on and on while bleeding out. Izuku rolled his eyes, got his lighter out, and lit the dynamite in the house. "YOU'LL GET WHAT'S COMING TO YOU SOON ENOUGH! IT'LL CATCH UP TO YOU, YOU HEAR ME?!"

He walked outside to see the heroes and police already behind his current squad. He nodded to them while Mokemuri gave him a thumbs up. The heroes were saying something, but it doesn't look like they're attacking yet. He pulled out his Aviator sunglasses and looked at the mansion one final time. All five of them watched as Overhaul's mansion blew up. Anyone that could still be alive in there is definitely dead.

"What did you do?" Nighteye walked up to them. The five of them turned around. Rappa looks like he was ready for another fight, but Mokemuri gave him the look. He backed down, even if he's a little disappointed.

"Oh, hey Shinso! Cool kusarigamas!" Izuku noticed his best friend at the back with Eraserhead.

"These can cut through your bullets!" Shinso greeted him back.

"We can try that some other time! Our ride is here! See ya, Mokemuri." Izuku answered back. As if on cue, a winged Nomu grabbed him, Twice, and Rappa while flying away. Nighteye sighed as Ryukyu turned into a dragon and started pursuing them. He looked at Mokemuri, who was holding Eri.

"Did they leave you?" Nighteye asked the boy.

"No, no. I told them I'm only with them for this one job. I just…" Mokemuri turned to face Eri. "I promised you a good life, right? Away from all the bad things. Well, this guy is a hero. Someone you can trust."

"...What about you?" Eri asked, not wanting to let her brother go. She held his clothes tightly. Mokemuri took off his jacket and gave it to her. "Please, don't go."

"Nah, I'll be gone for a while. I promise I'll-"

"Okay, seriously, not to spoil a dramatic moment, but you're still 16 years old. You are not going to prison." Nighteye rested his hand on the teenager's shoulder.

"Dude, I committed a lot of crimes. Also, didn't Izuku Midoriya go to prison? Pretty sure I'm even older than him by a few months. The public ain't gonna be happy that I'm scot-free either, regardless of what I've done."

"Well, we can easily handle that end. It's also easier that nobody knew what you did. There's also the fact that you kept innocents out of what you did." Nighteye reasoned with him.

"You know, as per contract and such, I can't really tell you anything about the League. I don't care what you promise me. No amount of witness protection, or even any kind of protection, is gonna stop them from putting a bullet into my skull if I rat them out." Mokemuri shuddered at the thought of that.

"... That will complicate things. Rest assured, you and your sister will be safe." Nighteye reassured him.

"And gramps."

"Hmm?"

"Yeah, the League wants to deliver on their deal. While they did kill a lot of the Overhaul loyalists in the trigger plantations, we mostly tried to keep some of them alive."

"Hey, Nighteye, are we done here? Some guys over here just handed us a buncha' yakuza members!" Fat Gum yelled from behind the crowd while pointing at the still unconscious gangsters. "And an old man on a stretcher!"

"Nighteye, I have bad news. The nomu puked out a rocket launcher and handed it to Civil War. He, well, let's just say that it'll take time for my left wing to regenerate. They managed to get away." Ryukyu contacted Nighteye through her communicator.

"Unfortunate, but they were never our priority in this operation." Nighteye replied to his fellow hero. His phone's All Might notification started sounding even when he had it on silent. He checked to see what it was. It was a message from the League's expert hacker, Paul, giving him the locations of the plantations. Alongside the locations were the pictures of some members of the yakuza. The ones that are alive, at the very least. "Hmm, they mostly delivered on their end of the bargain. The police will have to be satisfied with this amount for their quota."

Another message was sent to him, which was the capture of Kurogiri by Tsukauchi and Gran Torino. Unfortunately, that also awakened another powerful servant of Tomura.

"Well, are we done here, hero?" Mokemuri asked him.

"...Yes. We are done here. Come now, you and your sister can have your peace."
