"AHHHHHHH...No good... I'm sorry, father," Shigaraki said while picking up the pale blue hand from the floor and putting it back on his face. "Throwing punches to save people. Ha ha ha. That's our state-sponsored violence," he continued laughing, almost mockingly.
"You're fast," Emerald said.
"Too fast to keep up with," Amythest said, continuing where Emerald left off.
"But not as fast as expected," Aquamarine said, finishing the sentence. "Could it really be true?"
"That you're getting weaker?!" the four said in unison. It was bone-chilling, shake you to your core creepy. Their eyes had a familiar yet unfamiliar feeling in them. All Might took one look at three hooded villains and saw something in them that felt familiar. He saw fear and sadness hidden behind the anger, devilish intent, and glee in their eyes.
On top of that, he recognized the three cloaked people for their meeting. They were the ones who watched the class and were in the USJ earlier in the week. The number one pro knew he would have to share his findings with the other heroes later. But in the meantime, he had to protect the students and injured teachers until backup arrived. So all Might sprinted toward the four, his arms crossed and hands in blades.
"Nomu," Shigaraki said.
"CAROLINA SMASH!" All Might yelled so loud that it echoed through the building, almost shaking the foundation. He swung his arms out, making an 'x' as he screamed. It hit the black creature called Nomu, but it had no effect. 'No effect at all?! Seriously?' All Might thought to himself as he attacked again, this time, a pinch to the gut. A large 'BOOOM!' echoed through the building once more as the attack became futile.
"No effect. Because he's got shock absorption. If you want to really damage Nomu, you'd be better off slowly ripping him apart, piece by piece. Not that he'll give you that chance," Shigaraki said triumphantly, as if he had already won. Emerald and Amethyst shook their heads while Aquamarine bonked Shiggy on the head.
"Thanks for the info. Appreciate it!" All Might said, still fighting the Nomu. Finally, he managed to grab one of its arms, ripping it clean of its body. However, it grew back only seconds after.
"I don't remember saying that's all he can do. This is Hyperregeneration," Shigaraki said, "After all, Nomu is a superpowered living sandbag designed to withstand everything you've got and kill you, All Might."
All Might jumped back to distance himself and the behemoth in front of him. He knew he was already past his limit but couldn't leave his students in danger. So he thought for a moment about the situation in front of him. 'How can I defeat this creature?'
It soon hit him. All Might charged at the Nomu, and it did the same. Their punches collided, and the next, and the next. When one would send a punch, the other would counter with a punch. "It's 'Absorption,' not 'negation'! So he must have a limit, no?!" All Might said with a booming voice, "Built to counter me, you say?! Made to withstand everything I've got?! Then I'll just go beyond that!" He continued his barrage of punches as he continued his speech. "Tell me, villains. Do you know the meaning of PLUS ULTRA!" As he says the last two words, All Might sends his most robust attack at the Nomu, sending it flying through the USJ's roof.
Smoke and dust now surrounded the number one hero. "Well, villain?" the yellow blonde said as the smoke and dust cleared, "How about we hurry this up and finish this?"
"You cheated!" were the only words from the pale blue villain with the hands.
