Okay, last chapter I said that the next update would be around January next year, but somehow I was able to find time and finish this chapter, thus think of this as my early Christmas gift to you readers…
Many thanks to those who read and reviewed this fic. I really appreciated it and this gave me inspiration to work on the next chapter and here Pachinko continue his attempts to catch Naegi red-handed in order to prove that his target is the SUPER GUY…and now he has finally made his move as he is becoming more impatient…
Well then, read on and enjoy!
A few days later, you can see that classes is ongoing inside Hope's Peak Academy, where everything appeared peaceful and orderly, but the scene shifts near the parking lot of the academy where the limousine is there, and Pachinko is gazing at the academy as he is DYING to go inside and find Naegi, but his goons advised him not to jump to conclusions as they are sure that there are guards there and if Pachinko is seen, his cover would be blown and this would put his parole at risk, though Pachinko appeared determined to settle the score with Naegi and told his men he is not backing away and will think of a way to get inside the academy.
"Boss…I don't think…"
"I should."
"But there are guards there.."
"So what?"
"You'll risk getting your parole revoked if…"
"I won't."
"Boss…"
"I mean it."
The goons sweat-dropped as they are getting a feeling that their boss is beginning to lose his mind seeing that instead of revitalizing their mafia network, Pachinko is hell-bent in going after a high school boy who just resembled a manga character, and the goons are starting to have second thoughts supporting Pachinko even though they were getting paid, yet they would not want to risk getting caught by police, and they are now waiting to see what Pachinko's next move would be and there the goons would make their decision from that point onwards.
After some time Pachinko came with a decision, and brought out his cellphone and called one of his men, who appeared to be a good hacker, and told him to hack through the computers of Hope's Peak Academy and print the layout on the school grounds so that he can come up with a way to sneak in without arousing suspicion.
The hacker said that he will have it ready in 30 minutes or less, and Pachinko praised him for that. Soon after, Pachinko told the driver to head back to the hideout as he will make preparations on what to do next, and Pachinko's goons sighed in relief as they were worried that Pachinko may have gotten very crazy.
However, Pachinko heard that line and aimed his Uzi gun at the two goons and made it clear that he is not crazy, and he is willing to kill in order to prove his point, and the goons begged for their lives and apologized, and Pachinko told his men that he is not crazy, which the goons agreed readily just to avoid their boss' wrath.
"OKAY! OKAY!"
"WE BELIEVE YOU!"
"YOU'RE NOT CRAZY!"
"YOU'RE THE BEST MOB BOSS WE EVER HAVE!"
"SO DON'T AIM YOUR GUN AT US!"
"PLEASE!"
"DON'T SHOOT!"
"I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"
After that, the limousine leaves the parking lot of Hope's Peak Academy and head back to hideout, where passerby noticed the limousine, as they noted that the vehicle has been there for nearly an hour and wondered what is going on.
Believe It Or Not by Joey Scarbury
(Opening Song from The Greatest American Hero)
Look at what's happened to me,
I can't believe it myself;
Suddenly I'm up on top of the world,
Should've been somebody else.
Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.
Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true.
Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.
Ch. 111: Akademī ni sen'nyū suru
Later that night, the hacker showed the printout of the school grounds of Hope's Peak Academy, and the facilities that are stationed, such as the classrooms, the laboratories, the infirmary, the botanical garden, the gymnasium, and the such. The hacker said that several classrooms are sorted and that there are a lot of students there. The hacker said that the guards are stationed outside and it would be no problem in sneaking inside if Pachinko could come up with a clever disguise.
Pachinko then asked the hacker if he can hack and print down the sections where Makoto Naegi is in, and the hacker said he will give it a try and advised him to wait for at least five minutes, which Pachinko said he will wait.
"Five minutes, huh?"
"Yes, boss. Five minutes. That's all I need."
"Fine."
"Will have it ready."
"Print it."
"Sure."
"I appreciate it."
"You're welcome."
After some five minutes, the hacker was able to print the names and pictures of the students who are in Class 78, and Pachinko is filled with enthusiasm as he found Naegi and Kirigiri among the students sectioned in Class 78, and now he is fired up as his revenge is coming closer within his grasp. He said that he will come up with a plan to sneak inside Hope's Peak Academy, and confront Naegi.
One of the goons suggested that they take Naegi's classmates as hostage so that they can make Naegi do as told, and Pachinko clapped his hands as he liked the idea, as he can have some leverage against Naegi and make him admit that he is the SUPER GUY. And if that works, Pachinko would feel vindicated after being ridiculed for saying that the SUPER GUY exists, and now he can produce proof that Naegi is really the SUPER GUY.
As Pachinko makes his own monologue, the other goons stared at each other and wondered aloud if Pachinko has LOST HIS MARBLES as he seemed to be obsessed with a wimpy-looking high school boy who resembled a manga character wearing a cosplay that makes him a poor imitation of Superman, and they ponder if Pachinko should seek professional help.
"Look at that…"
"Boss is really acting crazy…"
"Maybe he went psycho…"
"That's what I'm thinking…"
"Should we call an ambulance?"
"Yeah…it's becoming unhealthy…he's been going at it about a high school kid being a Superman-type of character…"
"Boss has gotten crazy, huh?"
"Yeah."
Pachinko heard it and fired warning shots that nearly hit the two goons, and they shrieked in terror as a pissed-off Pachinko brought out a machine gun and fired more warning shots and the goons screamed effeminately in terror.
"EEEEKKK!"
"KKKKYYYYAAHHH!"
"DON'T SHOOT US!"
"WE'RE SORRY!"
"FORGIVE US!"
"WE DIDN'T MEAN TO…!"
"SPARE US!"
"I DON'T WANT TO DIE!"
Pachinko screamed like a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum, reminding them that he is not crazy, and he will prove to everyone that Naegi is really the SUPER GUY and he will do whatever it takes, and threatened to shoot down anyone who calls him CRAZY or a psychopath. The hacker and the other goons watched in worry after seeing Pachinko throwing a fit.
The two goons hugged each other and apologized, promising not to criticize him again while begging for their lives to be spared and will do whatever he asked just as long as they are not to be shot to death.
"WE ARE SORRY!"
"FORGIVE US!"
"WE WON'T DO IT AGAIN!"
"WE PROMISE!"
"PLEASE...DON'T PUNISH US!"
"HAVE MERCY!"
"WWWWAAAHHH!"
"MMMOOOMMMYYY!"
Pachinko lowered his machine gun and told everyone that he has formulated a plan on how to get inside Hope's Peak Academy, and they will commence the operation tomorrow morning, and promised his men that once that mission is accomplished, everyone will be financially rewarded.
The rest of the goons glanced at each other, unsure at first whether to go on board with Pachinko's plan, but after hearing that they will be given a monetary reward, they eventually agreed, as they felt that Pachinko would get back on track the moment he is through with Naegi, and said that they will follow his lead.
Pachinko smiled as his men said that they are in agreement with his plans and will carry it out well without fail.
"Okay."
"We're in."
"We'll do it."
"Just as long as you put an end to that Naegi brat."
"Yeah."
"We want to old boss back."
"So we'll help you."
"Right."

The next day, the scene shifts at Hope's Peak Academy, where classes are ongoing and everything went well and smoothly without incident, and minutes later it was recess, and most of the students went to the cafeteria and the scene shifts at the classroom where Class 78 is, and you can see Yamada giving free complimentary copies of the Captain Chaos manga, which most of his classmates accepted, except for Togami.
The SHSL Heir is not only uninterested, he is aghast at it as he is reminded of the sightings he countered regarding the "guy in the red suit", and he told Yamada to stop bugging him about this new manga Fujiko made, and made it clear that as the heir of the Togami family, he will not show weakness by indulging in a childish act of reading a manga.
Yamada then asked if he prefer the Captain Gonzo manga, which only irked Togami and told Yamada to knock it off and get lost.
"Hmm…so you prefer the Captain Gonzo manga that Naegi-dono's younger sister made…?"
"Yamada!"
"Huh?"
"Shut up already!"
"Eh?"
"Not another word!"
"Um…"
"Shut it!"
By then a teacher passed by and called Naegi, telling him that headmaster Jin Kirigiri is summoning him at the principal's office, and Naegi nodded as he leaves the classroom to see Jin. A few minutes after Naegi left, the classroom is left alone with the students waiting for the next teacher, and as the hallway is empty due to classes resuming, the scene shows that several janitors are walking by, carrying mops and are sweeping the floor.
However, it turn out to be Pachinko and his goons, as they disguised themselves as janitors and managed to infiltrate Hope's Peak Academy, and using an improvised map, Pachinko followed the route until finding the target classroom, where Class 78 is located, and there he took out the list where the names of the students belonging to Class 78 are listed.
Pachinko double-checked the list until he is sure that Naegi is among the list, and he told his goons to prepare their weapons, just to make sure the classmates of Naegi won't pull anything foolish, and told them to stick to the plan, which the goons nodded and said that they are with him until the end of time and space itself.
"Okay."
"We're in."
"We'll do it."
"Just as long as you put an end to that Naegi brat."
"Yeah."
"We want to old boss back."
"So we'll help you."
"Right."
-x-
At the principal's office, Jin talked to Naegi and informed him that he had a talk with Inspector Takaki Ishimaru, and said that the kidnappers who kidnapped Yamada is after the Luckster, and Jin asked if Naegi happened to bear a grudge with someone outside school, in which Naegi deny it, and said that Yamada told him that the kidnapper may be a nutcase as the kidnapper said that Naegi resembled a manga character that Komaru made.
Jin glanced at Naegi carefully and talked to him some more, and after another minute of discussion, he is convinced that the SHSL Luckster is innocent and believed that Naegi is just a random victim, and advised the boy to be careful, which the 15-year old boy assured that he will be extra careful.
"Very well, then."
"…"
"You should be careful."
"I will, sir."
"Just make sure that you…"
"I understand."
"Very well. You're dismissed, Naegi-kun."
"Thank you, sir."
As Naegi is ready to leave the principal's office, the scene shifts right outside the classroom of Class 78, where Pachinko and his goons are preparing themselves, and there Pachinko told his men to get ready as they will barge their way in, and instructed them to make sure none of the students make an attempt to escape and call for help.
The goons nodded and said that they got the instruction loud and clear.
"We're ready."
"Ready to rock and roll."
"Just say the word."
"And we're gonna roll this place out!"
"Weapons ready."
"Everything's secured."
"All are ready."
"We're prepared."
After that, Pachinko and his goons opened the door and confronted Class 78, and some of the students blinked their eyes at seeing so many janitors coming in, but Kirigiri stared wide-eyed as she can see through Pachinko's disguise, but before she could act, Pachinko's goons brought out their guns and aimed at the students while the others locked the door, and Asahina panicked while Ohgami urged her to calm down.
"EEEKKK!"
"Asahina!"
"We're going to die! We're going to die!"
"Calm down, Asahina!"
"I don't want to die! I'm too young to die!"
"Calm down! We won't die! Believe me!"
"Someone help us!"
"Calm yourself!"
There Pachinko took off the janitor cap and walked around, where he made a demand, asking where Makoto Naegi is, and if they bring him out, he will let everyone go. Kirigiri stayed silent as she knew that Naegi is the target, but she is also aware that Naegi's secret could be exposed if things get out of hand, and she began to think of something that would give Naegi the warning about Pachinko being here inside the classroom.
To Be Continued...
Hope you liked this chapter, as Pachinko has finally made his move, and made a bold one as he and his goons infiltrate Hope's Peak Academy…and has found the classroom where Naegi is studying.
Thanks to his LUCK, Naegi is not among the hostages, yet he would get a big shock once he finds out what is going on, and will think of a way to stop Pachinko without exposing his SECRET…
Preview:
The conclusion to this arc draws near, as the SUPER GUY rushes in to save the day…or is it…?
See you in six weeks (probably around the end of January or early February of 2020)…
Reviews are welcomed, but needed…
