Izuku was currently limping back towards Dabi and Toga. It was slow and painful, he struggled to stay on his feet. His vision was blurry and he had a headache. He was almost certain the car crash gave him a concussion. Despite this he continued on his way until he found Dabi and Toga.
"Are you and Eri okay?" asks Dabi frantically.
"..."
"Where's Eri?" asks Dabi.
"We'll get her back but we'll need Giran's help finding her, that and we'll need some help fighting. I already have some people in mind." says Izuku.
"This might be a bad time but you look fantastic with all that blood." says Toga.
"It is a bad time but thanks anyway." says Izuku, "Let's get back home."
The three of them walked back to the pie shop. Izuku took his mask off on the way over. They are about to get into the car when they hear someone call to them.
"Hey." says the voice.
They turn to see the man that owns the shop.
"I just wanted to let you know, your secret is safe with me young man. I'm a fan of yours." says the baker.
"Thank you. It's nice to have something go right for once." says Izuku.
"Anytime ya wanna stop by, it's on the house." says the baker.
"Thank you very much. Well if you'll excuse us there are a couple of things we need to take care of." says Izuku as he gets into the car.
The drive home started quiet. Dabi would occasionally grab the wheel and pull Izuku back into his lane. It wasn't Izuku's fault his vision was still blurry.
"Are you okay? I mean, you can't really see. You smell like blood. Your not gonna die again without warning are you?" asks Dabi.
"I'm fine, the bleeding stopped and I'll shake of the concussion soon enough." says Izuku.
"When we get home I'm gonna call Ruby and ask her to bring you some blood." says Dabi.
"Fine. When she gets here tell her I'm with Giran." says Izuku.
"Are we really gonna go after the Yakuza? I'm all for helping Eri, but I don't think we have enough man power for this." says Dabi.
"We are going after them, we will save Eri, and I am going to get us some more power. I have a couple of people who wouldn't mind helping us and I will ask Giran if he can supply us with more." says Izuku.
"Who do you have in mind?" asks Dabi.
"Speed Demon and Wolf Man." says Izuku.
"I think we'll still be outnumbered." says Dabi.
"I have a couple other people in mind and if it comes down to it. I'll ask Eraser Head and his co-workers for help." says Izuku.
It was at this point the three of them pulled into the driveway.
"I'm gonna call Ruby." says Dabi.
"I'm gonna go speak with Giran." says Izuku.
"I'll go sharpen my knives." says Toga.
"Great idea." says Izuku.
Izuku limped down to Giran's shop.
"Hey Giran, I need a couple of favors." says Izuku.
"As long as there nothing big." he hears Giran call from the other room.
"I hate to say this but they are pretty big." says Izuku.
"Well how big are we talking?" asks giran as he walks into the room, " Good lord what happened to you? Ya look like you been hit by a car."
"Funny you should say that. I got hit by a car and a van." says Izuku.
"You fucking serious?" asks Giran.
"Not in that order." says Izuku.
"So… what exactly do you need from me?" asks Giran.
"Firstly, I need whiskey. Second I need you to gather any information on the Yakuza, Shie Hassaikai. Third, I need to ask you if you can get anybody to help me bring them down." says Izuku.
"I can do all of those things but why do you want to go after the Yakuza?" asks Giran.
"Overhaul has a daughter. I fought overhaul. I saved her. She had a tracker in her. Most of the eight precepts of death came and took her back when I took her to get pie. They hit me with a fucking van and overhaul killed me last night. Also reviving doesn't always heal me completely." says Izuku.
"Okay that's a lot to unpack. I know a guy who would be down to help with something like that. He has two people he would probably bring along." says Giran.
"That puts us at six. I know four more people I can ask to join us." says Izuku.
"Wow, 10 people, it sounds like your putting together a decent crew." says Giran.
"I swear to god imma kill Overhaul." says Izuku.
Izuku feels a buzz in his pocket and sees that Ruby is at the house.
"I'm gonna get started." says Izuku and he turns and goes back home.
When he gets through the door and sees Ruby he opens his mouth to tell Ruby everything that happened but he gets cut off.
"They told me everything. I brought blood. If you need anything else, tell me." says Ruby.
"Well first thanks for the blood." says Izuku before downing an entire blood bag in one gulp, "Are you down for bull rushing an entire Yakuza with me and hopefully eight other people."
"Wow asking for a lot on that one… Just kidding let's kick their asses." says Ruby.
"That's the spirit. Giran is working on details. I've got more recruiting to do." says Izuku as he takes out his phone and dials someone.
"Hello." says the man on the other side of the phone.
"I need some help with a Yakuza, it cuz-" starts Izuku.
"I'm down. Give me a time and place." says the voice.
"That's great. I've got a couple more calls to make." says Izuku.
"See ya Izuku." says the voice.
"See ya Chizome." says Izuku before hanging up.
"Who was that?" asks Toga.
"The Hero Killer Stain is gonna work with us." says Izuku.
Dabi tilts his head to the side and widens his eyes and Toga looks extremely excited.
"I wanna meet Mr. Stainy. I wanna kill Mr. Stainy." shouts Toga.
"Calm down." says Dabi.
"Sometimes I forget you can go batshit crazy." says Izuku.
"I'm sorry. Says Toga.
"Don't be sorry, but please don't kill stain." says Izuku.
"I won't." says Toga.
Izuku pulls her into a hug, "Thanks, babe."
"How did you get the Hero Killer Stain to work with us?" asks Dabi, "Like, does he owe you a favor?"
"Naw, he was a vigilante before he was the Hero Killer. He's always game for punishing those who need it." says Izuku.
"Well in any case, we are making a solid crew." says dabi.
"On that topic, I have a couple more calls to make." says Izuku.
"Good luck with recruiting." says Ruby.
"We'll leave you to it then." says Dabi.
Izuku pulls out his phone and calls Victor and Speed Demon.
"Hey, kid. You usually don't call so soon after we meet up. What's goin' on?" asks Victor.
'Right that was yesterday, that felt like weeks.' thinks Izuku.
"I got into a pretty bad run in with Yakuza after I left last night." says Izuku.
"Oh shit, are you okay?" asks Victor.
"I'm fine now. Regeneration does wonders for me. I was just wondering if you would be down to go up against a yakuza." says Izuku.
"I don't know. It's just you me and Speed Demon vs. an entire Yakuza. Seems a little one sided." says Victor.
"I've got fighters to bring, but the real reason I'm doing this is because the leader of the Yakuza ,Shie Hassaikai, is abusing his daughter. I want to get her out of there. I'd like to put them in jail, but if I could just get her out of their I'd be fine with it. But I can't do that unless I have help." says Izuku.
"After all that there's no way I'd refuse. Count me in." says Victor.
At this point Speed Demon joined the group call.
"Hey. It's only been a day what are you calling for." says Speed demon.
"Hey speedy. Are you down for attacking the Shie Hassaikai Yakuza with me, Victor, and some other people I can bring along?" asks Izuku.
"Okay, wow there is a lot to unpack there. Isn't this the type of thing we should talk about in person?" asks Speed Demon.
"... You're right. I'll see if I can get everyone together. If you two will excuse me. I'll start arranging a meeting right now." says Izuku before hanging up.
After talking and texting Izuku had set up a meeting in one of Giran's ware houses the next day near eight O'clock. Izuku, Toga, Ruby, and Dabi were there before anybody else. Izuku was dressed in his suit. They all had similar masks on, though Toga's had fangs drawn said he would be there soon with some people to help out. They didn't have to wait too much longer before Stain walked into the ware house. Although instead of wearing his normal outfit he was dressed like he used to as Stendahl.
"Wow, you took the time to take Stendahl's old outfit out of the closet." says Izuku.
"I thought it was fitting considering what we're gonna do." says Stain.
"Is this speed Demon?" asks Dabi, taking note of the Katana on the newcomers back.
"No, you probably know me as Stain." says Stain.
"Oh, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm a fan of your ideology." says Dabi.
"I'm glad to hear the message has spread." says Stain.
"Hi Mr. Stain." shouts Toga as she runs towards him, knife in hand.
Izuku dashes forwards and hugs Toga.
"This is my girlfriend Toga. She's crazy and likes seeing people she likes covered in blood. She's a big fan of yours." says Izuku.
"Is that why she was running at me with a knife?" asks Stain.
"Yeah, but if I hug her long enough she calms down." says Izuku.
"Why doesn't she come after you like that?" asks Stain.
"It's cause' I come home covered in blood pretty often." says Izuku.
"I see." says Stain.
"Toga are you calm now?" asks Izuku.
Toga looks up at him and nods cutely.
"Good, I'm proud of you." says Izuku.
"Hey are we at the right place." calls Victor as he and Speed Demon walk into the ware house.
"Yeah, you're at the right place." says Izuku.
"It's a nice looking crew ya got here." says Victor.
"They're all pretty tough." says Izuku.
"So how is this gonna go down?" asks Speed Demon.
"Great question. My broker is gonna bring over a couple more fighters. While he's doing that, I've got information about members of the Yakuza and we are gonna plan out who takes who. The main goal is to save Overhaul's daughter Eri. Speed Demon, I want you on that. You can be in and out in a second. Victor I want you to fight Katsukame, he's a giant. I need you to use that bear form you mentioned. He'll be hard to move but I think you have the strength to do it. Dabi I need you to fight the random weak members. Your attacks are widespread enough to do it easily. Toga I need you to distract Sakaki, he makes his opponents drunk, I just need you to distract him. Ruby I need you to fight Tengai, he makes barriers put pressure on those barriers until they break. Stain I need you to fight Nemoto, he can make you answer any question with your true feelings, because you truly believe in the role of Stendahl and Stain, he can't get your real name. He's a good shot, keep on your toes. I can take Rappa. Whoever G brings can take the rest, at least that's what he said. As long as none of the leaders are there we can take Eri. G is working on information and a good time and place to attack them." says Izuku
At this point the Warehouse door opened again. Giran walks in with three people behind him, an older man, a young man in an All Might hoodie, and young woman dressed like a succubus.
"I brought some help along." says Giran, "This old man is knuckle duster, he's quirkless but he's also one hell of a brawler. He'll do good for you."
"Nice to meet you... hello Stendahl." says Knuckle duster.
Stain just nods in response. Izuku looks back and forth between the two but chooses to keep his mouth shut and not upset anybody.
Giran points to the young man in the All Might hoodie, "This young man is the hauler."
"It's the crawler." says the crawler.
"My bad, this is the cruller" says Giran.
"Crawler!" says the crawler putting emphasis on 'craw'
"My bad Crawler. His quirk lets him slide on the ground and lets him push little shock wave things out of his hands." says Giran.
"It's nice to finally meet some other vigilantes. Also hi Stendahl, I hope you've been well since we last spoke." says the Crawler sincerely.
"I have been and thank you." says Stain.
"And last but certainly not least, this is pop step. She can jump really high and usually doesn't fight as much as the other two but she can kick pretty hard." says Giran.
"Okay, Knuckle duster, you take Hojo he can make his skin like diamond. Stay on your toes and you should be fine. Haul- I mean Crawler I want you to fight Setsuno. She has a katana and can pull weapons towards herself. Keep your distance and use your shock waves. Remember to keep moving. Pop step, I want you to fight Tabe, he can bite through just about anything. Keep to the air and try to kick his lower body, or just away from his mouth. Does that sound good, are there any objections?" says Izuku.
The general decision among the vigilantes was that it sounded fine but none of them knew exactly what was going on, so Izuku explained the situation which managed to enrage everyone there. Things really were coming together nicely for the raid, he just needed one thing.
"G how are we on info for the raid?" asks Izuku.
"I've got a time and place. Away from base and without any of the leaders but everyone else will be there." says Giran.
"That's fantastic." says Izuku.
"yeah but the bad news is if you fail this time you probably won't ever have a chance to get her out again." says Giran.
"Well shit." says Izuku.
Authors Note
It's all coming together. This is probably gonna be one of the coolest things I write in the story. I finally got the vigilantes from the mini series into the story. I only recently read the mini series but I love it. Knuckle duster is my favorite. There should be one more chapter of preparation for the raid and the chapter after that should be the raid itself. The raid might take a couple of chapters to finish. Just like everything else in Izuku's life it will not go exactly according to plan. Izuku will be in a constant state of rage during the entire raid. If yall have any suggestions for things I could do during the raid I'd love to hear them. Also I have an idea that I'd like some input on. I'd like to have a chapter after Izuku dies where he just shows up in heaven until he is revived. He could meet a priest have a chapter with him. I could also do a chapter where he goes to hell for his vampiric crimes and meets some demons and sinners. I got the idea for these chapters from the youtube series Hazbin Hotel. Also I'm super excited that we are hitting thirty chapters and this will put is over ninety thousand words. Also I wrote over two thousand words today to get this out. I feel incredible pride and incredible back pain from leaning over my laptop.

Lightning blade 49: Rappa will take some of the things that Izuku said to heart, but he will stick with the Yakuza for a chance to beat overhaul in a fight.
Master blade 47: Your wish is my command. Although I'm not sure if I should use "tis' but a sratch" or "I've had worse" or "Just a flesh wound" or I'll bite your legs off" come to think of it I might use all of them. Also the black knight is such a funny concept. There is just this dude who is to angry to die. Like he's not immortal he just won't die.
Bunker Bird 25: I'm glad you think my story is beautiful, I think the same. I'll try to keep it going.
Dear Death Father dearest: I'm glad you are loving it. I'll try to write more. It actually looks like this chapter will get made within a week of the last chapters release. Which hasn't been happening as often as it used to.
Atomic Dragon 59: I am going to have Izuku rant to eraser after the raid. Izuku kicks down Eraser head's door, "Aizawa, Holy FuCK" Izuku is gonna come down on the Yakuza twice as hard as they came down on him. Also Izuku is gonna scare the shit out of his fellow vigilantes with his Holy rage. Also thank you for sending ideas to Discord. It really helps.
