The convoy pulled to a stop. Izuku saw Dabi peeking out at him, he shook his head. It wasn't time yet. He noticed Victor shift to get a better angle with his minigun. Izuku was extremely surprised when he first saw Victor carrying it.
"Give me the girl." calls Izuku.
No response.
"Did ya'll dumb sons of bitches go deaf, I said give me the girl." shouts Izuku.
"FUCK OFF." comes a voice from the car up front.
"Are we gonna have a problem?" asks Izuku.
"It's all of us and one of you. We damn well will, have a problem." shouts the voice.
"Stop your engines before I rip it out of your car and beat you shitless with it." says Izuku.
The car burst forwards, Izuku hops to the side, lands on his feet, jumps into the air, and kicks the side of the car with both legs. This move sends it off the road and down the hill a ways. This move also seems to initiate the fight because almost everyone is out of their vans. He sees the eight precepts behind all of the canon fodder.
"You sure you want to do this? You guys are already down a van." asks Izuku.
Izuku begins to hear a voice in his head.
'It's me ruby, do we start yet?' asks Ruby.
'Not just yet. I'm still negotiating. Ask Dabi to try to start blocking the road behind them. Make sure he does it quietly.' thinks Izuku.
'Alright, and be careful.' says Ruby.
"Get out of the road." shouts Nemoto, " You know you can't beat us, don't you?"
"Of course I can't." says Izuku, who just remembered that Nemoto can make him tell the truth.
Izuku smelled smoke and looked over their shoulders to see Dabi had managed to set up a fire wall while he kept them distracted. He was almost certain Nemoto's next question would give away his plans. He made sure he was ready to attack with the next question.
"Then why bother attacking us if you don't think you can win?" asks Nemoto.
Izuku lunges forwards, "Because I know for damn sure my crew is gonna beat y'all shitless."
Everyone hiding in the trees seemed to realize this was the time to come out and fight. Katsukame turned into a giant, Victor opened fire on Katsukame but it wasn't all that effective. Knuckle duster and Hojo started exchanging blows. Dabi started blasting all of the no name villains. Stain and Nemoto started dancing around trying to avoid getting hit, nothing Nemoto said could get past stain. Pop step started jumping around Setsuno and landing kick where she could. The crawler began gliding around Tabe and shooting him with his mini shock waves. Toga and Sakaki began drunkenly stumbling around and trying to cut each other with a bottle or a knife. Izuku began boxing with Rappa. Everytime a shield popped up Ruby put pressure on it from all sides until it shattered. All in all ,things weren't going horrible. A little slow. It seemed to be a stalemate. Until Dabi finally finished taking down all of the small time villains and took a shot at Hojo. As soon as Hojo turned away Knuckle duster drove a series of hits into his torso until he finished off with an uppercut that took Hojo into the air and sent him down on his back with a thud. They finally had a lead. With Dabi and knuckle duster freed they could continue to make their way through Overhaul's men. Or at least it looked that way, Victor's gun stopped firing. He ran out of ammo. He strapped the gun onto his back and charged Katsukame, trying to cut at him or knock him over. He wasn't all that successful seeing as Katsukame slapped him into Izuku's side and sent them both into the dirt.
"Fuck, okay, Toga find eri. I'll take Sakaki and Rappa." shouts Izuku as he leads Rappa towards Sakaki to fight both of them.
Izuku begins to stumble around with Rappa and Sakaki. He was mostly fine but it was still hard to get close to Rappa because of how fast his fists were moving combined with the slight blur in his vision made it hard to tell where his fists were. He couldn't get to Sakaki because Rappa was great at positioning himself to block off any path Izuku had. Izuku's thoughts about getting to Sakaki were roadblocked when he heard a loud thud. He looked to his right to see Katsukame standing over Victor who had just hit the ground like a bullet. Katsukame was about to stomp on victor so Izuku dashed over and carried Victor out of the way.
"You have that bear form right?" asks Izuku.
"Yeah, are you sure I should use it now, cuz I can't use it again?" asks Victor.
"Yes, I'm sure. I'm gonna hit the back of his knee I need you to topple him okay?" asks Izuku.
"Sounds good, let's go." says Victor.
"Great." says Izuku before dashing towards Katsukame.
Izuku managed to slip under his hand and run between his legs. Before Katsukame could turn around Victor distracted him by throwing a tree directly into his chest. Katsukame took a step towards Victor, Izuku sprang at him and crumpled the back of his left knee. Victor took this chance to leap off of a tree and hit him in the chin. This action toppled him and everyone underneath scrambled to get out of the way. Once Izuku and Victor were back up the ran at Katsukame sat on his head and slammed into it repeatedly until they heard him groan, and saw him start shrinking.
"There you go. That's how you do it." shouts Izuku excitedly.
"Great lookin kid. Keep it up." says Victor before rushing Rappa, now back in his wolf form.
Izuku was about to jump back in and fight the nearest villain, the plan had kind of been thrown off most people weren't fighting the person they were originally chosen to fight but they were winning so Izuku didn't mind. However, one thing that did concern Izuku was the fact that they had gone far off the road and ended up getting far too close to the city for his liking. He also noticed Dabi's original road block fire had spread into a sizable forest fire. And the last thing he desperately needed to fix was that Eri and Toga were still here. Oh and one more thing was bothering him. Rappa seems to have launched a car at him. Izuku swings both arms at it and sends it back towards Rappa. Rappa punches it straight up and runs towards Izuku. Rappa stops short and begins to circle him.
"Hey kid." says Rappa.
"Hey, big fella." says Izuku as he starts to circle rappa while avoiding low hanging branches.
"You've been busy since we last spoke haven't you?" asks Rappa.
Izuku didn't think it was Rappa's goal to distract him from the battle because Rappa doesn't seem like the type of guy to do that, but he looks around just in case. Everybody seemed to be holding their own. Winning actually. It makes sense they've freed up some of the crew to double team some opponents.
"Yeah, I've been trying to get a big crew together. Some people couldn't make it but I think we are doing just fine." says Izuku.
"Did ya get my message?" asks Rappa.
"Yeah, I did. Thanks for that." replies Izuku.
"Don't thank me. I only told you about this for a rematch. And by the way, remember how I said not to disappoint me?" asks Rappa.
"Yeah, I read the message. It wasn't very long." says Izuku.
"I just wanted to let you know, you haven't disappointed me yet." says Rappa.
"I'll try not to… nah, I just won't. I've got my regeneration back between our last fight and now. So if you don't mind, I'd like to go at it. No tricks, no hopping around, just trading blows. Seeing what lasts longer your rapid fire fists or my regeneration." says Izuku.
Rappa's lips pull up into an excited grin.
"I knew I liked ya. But you really are something else, ya know that?" asks Rappa.
"Course I do." says Izuku.
"That's what I like to hear." says Rappa as he clears the gap between Izuku and himself.
One of the perks of Izuku's regeneration is that it absorbs kinetic energy to an extent. A hit from Rappa would send a normal man flying. For Izuku it hurts like hell but he can stay in close and swing back. So he did. He and Rappa began pummeling each other. Rappa naturally hit much faster and harder. With rappa's fists flying the way they were Izuku could hardly land a hit. Even then Izuku was keeping up with Rappa. Izuku healed every hit he took in no time at all. He'd never pushed his regeneration this far or this fast. It was killing him. Despite that it was exhilarating in a way he can't quite explain. He felt like his regeneration was about to fail him. He now realizes that he'd been quite steadily moved back. Now they were really close to the city. With a groan of exertion Izuku landed a powerful jab into Rappa's midsection and sent him sprawling onto the ground. Rappa lay there panting. He looks up at Izuku' smiling far wider than before. He laughs.
"Holy, shit kid. Holy shit. Ha ha holy shit. That was one hell of a brawl. It's the kind of brawl I'd like to finish me off." says Rappa.
"Nah, you don't deserve to die. Not like the other villains here. You're close and I might have a personal bias towards you but you seem better than them." says Izuku.
"I ain't better than them." says Rappa.
"Whatever the case I'm not gonna kill ya." says Izuku.
Rappa lowers his head and releases the tension in his muscles, "Fine. I'll be here."
Izuku runs back towards the rest of the fighters to find the eight precepts on their last legs. Tabe and Setsuno are on the ground. Sakaki doesn't look hurt but he happens to have passed out. Katsukame was back into the woods some distance away, and he just took care of Rappa. All that was left is Hojo, Tengai and Nemoto. They are actually doing this. Toga has Eri in her arms. Eri is crying and Toga is comforting her.
"It's all right Eri. I'm here. We're getting you home." says Izuku.
Izuku takes another closer look at had a lot more bandages than last time, and new wounds. They hurt her. They took his girl, and they hurt her. Izuku turned is head to the three remaining precepts.
"I just have a couple things to take care of. Don't worry. I won't be long." says Izuku.
As he charged towards them he considered killing them. Actually doing it. He's never killed someone before and even though he feels these people deserve to get their throats slashed open, he doesn't want blood on his hands and chooses not to kill them. That doesn't mean he can't hurt em, because he plans on hurting them as badly as he can without scarring anybody watching. He goes for Hojo who seems to be using himself as bait for Izuku. Izuku ducks under a shot from Nemoto's pistol. Ruby breaks through Tengai's shield. Izuku wraps both arms around Hojo's waist and tackles him. Ruby and Dabi work on keeping Nemoto's shields busy. Knuckle Duster and Stain rush Nemoto and the rest stay back with Eri. Once Hojo is on the ground. He gets up, pins Hojo's arms under his knees and starts punching and scratching him. Eventually Hojo throws him off and they roll across the ground. Izuku feels the ground under him turn from dirt into Concrete. He looks around to see they actually did get into town. Granted it was pretty far out, but still in town. He heard the sound of A vehicle coming his way. He looked up to see a black van. Out of the van steps Overhaul, Chronostasis, and Mimic. Things just went to shit again.
Authors Note.
Things were really looking up for Izuku. There were only three of them left and then the plan went astray yet again. Can Izuku beat Overhaul? We've got a rematch on our hands and both fighters are absolutely pissed. For real though I'm pretty excited for the rest of the Arc. Although it was a little difficult for me to write. I have a much harder time writing out actions than I do writing conversations . It's why my story is so conversation heavy. So anyways the next chapter is going to have the Shie Hassaikia make a comeback, but the vigilantes aren't gonna make it easy for em.

Dear Father Death Dearest: I'm glad you liked the last chapter. I'm also glad you've been taking the time to comment on my story. Thank you for that. I'll try to keep chapters coming without a long wait.
Amadeus Amadeus: Blitzkrieg is actually a super good name for speed Demon. I think it's pretty creative. I also like the way you describe Speed Demon's fighting style.
I totally agree that they held your hand too much. I really didn't like how it told you which moves were super effective or not very effective. It felt too easy. even though I know type advantages it still made it too easy because I didn't have to think about what move I used. I think shigaraki is bothered by lusamine's abusive behavior. Although I think he'd be more interested and bothered by Guzma's abusive parents. It isn't shown as well as Lusamine's abuse but if you look for it you can find it. I also think Shigiraki can relate to Guzma's rash and generally destructive nature. After all he is destruction in human form.
Izuku rarely shows self control. He's tired of others controlling him and he enjoys acting arrogant or rude to people who are normally respected. The only reason he didn't act out at All for One is because he needed something from him. Izuku isn't exactly manipulative but he's learned a thing or two from working with Giran. More of his manipulative side will show up later.
Later in the story I'd like Izuku to be in a morally grey area rather than just being a good person. It's not just because I like morally grey characters, which I do, I think most people would end up morally grey if given powers or put in tough situations. Like yeah, I'd be selfish and greedy if I had superpowers but I wouldn't just completely fuck someone over. Unless they really deserved it.
You bring up a good point about me not knowing too much about Hazbin Hotel because of the current lack of Content. For the chapters in heaven, I was thinking I would make that up on my own. Without help or guidance from anything else. I'd have him meet some former heroes and maybe even a villain who really tried to be a good person but was put in bad circumstance. For the chapters in hell I would have to stretch things out a lot. I might have Izuku fight in a turf war, because why not. He's already in hell, sinning a little bit more isn't gonna change anything. I could take a little bit of inspiration from Vivziepop's other series Helluva boss.
I really don't know about another chapter for the Deku verse. I enjoy writing it and all but I feel like I have my hands full with writing this. As much as I enjoy writing Deku verse, I feel a special connection with this story. I think in part it's bacause I know what's coming down the line. I think it'll surprise most of the readers. I've already dropped a hint or two. Neither of them are obvious now, but looking back on it will make it feel obvious. I'm glad that you tried to describe the original story in a nice way, but I'm gonna be honest with you and just say it's bad. And that's okay because I got better, but it was bad. I'm glad you enjoyed deku verse more than other multiverse viewing stories out there.
Miro just dissociates whenever Night Eye rants. He just nods along and keeps eye contact. Whenever he can't tune Night Eye out he does his permeation thing.
Atmoic Dragon 59: Izuku makes good plans he just happens to have a wrench thrown into all of them. I might make Izuku reference some things with the knowledge Ruby has bestowed upon him. The reason Izuku didn't react to All For One wasn't because he was jaded, he just wanted All For One to help him. He's not above putting on a fake smile and acting nicer than usual to get what he wants. I'm actually really looking forward to writing Izuku's next conversation with All Might. I think Izuku will be internally slightly understanding but still fairly disgruntled with the information presented to him.
