Chapter 1: His True Purpose In This World
[3 Weeks after the Cell Games]
After the Cell Game's conclusion, the whole planet had a massive parade in honor of Mr. Satan, who was the man to defeat Cell and save the whole planet from destruction, becoming the number one hero in both Japan and the world. However, Mr. Satan, or also known as Hurcule Satan, never actually defeated Cell. The public was lied to by him, to hide the fact he is nothing more but a sniverling coward who only cares for the praise and worship of the people. The one who actually defeated Cell was an 11 year old boy, the son of the 23rd martial arts champion; Son Goku, Son Gohan.
Gohan never liked the press or wanted fame, so he and the Z-Fighters never bothered to tell the public the truth because their concerns is the protection of their planet and not the praise of the people, because protecting the planet is the right thing to do. Plus it is where they keep all their shit.
After the Cell Games, Chi-Chi allowed her son to train every now and then, only because Gohan wanted to make his father proud and keep up with his training. Chi-Chi couldn't argue against her son's reasoning, but only allowed him to train when he finished his studies and homework for the day. Gohan was happy about this arrangement, and for the past 3 weeks, he has been training with both Mr. Piccolo; his first ever mentor and second kidnapper, and even Vegeta; the Saiyan prince and the last pure blooded Saiyan in the universe (Ignore Tarble, Broly and Paragus), who wants to make sure he kept up with training because he wouldn't, "...allow a member of the Saiyan race to ignore their heritage and allow himself to fall to the bottom of the barrel of barrels!" His words.
Somewhere in one of the many wastelands across the planet, Gohan was training with Mr. Piccolo. Their training session, unlike his brief sessions with Vegeta, trained their mental stability, hone their skills and to sharpen their minds and senses, unlike Vegeta's training sessions that involved more strength training, power increasing and lots and lots of screaming and injuries in high gravity. He always wonders why he even trains with Vegeta sometimes, but forgets about it when he feels a familiar, yet strange feeling during their more hands on training.
Piccolo wore his usual clothing, being a purple gi with a light blue band that was fastened around his waist. He wasn't wearing his signiture turban and cape, as they layed far away on the ground so he can spar with Gohan on more even playing fields. Gohan was wearing clothing exactly like his father's, an orange gi with a dark blue shirt underneath, blue boots with red lining and dark blue wrist and waist bands.
They were high in the sky, their fists creating small shockwaves through the air; one reason they trained in such a barren area, yet their attacks were controlled and coordinated. Piccolo swung his fist across Gohan's head, who ducks under the attack, flipping backwards to parry by kicking Piccolo in his jaw, but Piccolo was able to dodge the attack just in time to grab Gohan's foot. Gohan couldn't react in time when Piccolo pulled him backwards and slammed his free arm into his back. Gohan became winded from the blow, unable to notice Piccolo appearing above him and kick him in the face, the force of the attack sending Gohan into the side of a mountain.
Piccolo watched a golden glow erupt from the rubble, as an explosion pushed everything in the area away, Gohan being the only thing left, his hair turned from its inky black to a glowing yellow, his aura glowing the same golden light. He had transformed into his super saiyan transformation. Gohan looked up to where Piccolo was, and he charged, ready to continue their sparring match.
Piccolo knows he isn't strong enough to face Gohan at his full power, but this wasn't a fight to the death, only a sparring match, but he couldn't help but power up and catch Gohan's fist, as they continued their spar. When Piccolo caught Gohan's fist, a shockwave burst out from its origin point, causing a small section of the planet to shake and the mountains around them the crumble away. The fight afterwards caused even more damage to their surroundings, leaving craters kilometers long to scatte the wasteland. How they weren't discovered and attack by local heroes is beyond anyone's mind. (Or the writer just couldn't be bothered to write such a scene.)
Piccolo quickly stopped their sparring match, saying they should take a break so the planet can rest from their destructive battle. Gohan understood, even though he wanted to continue. He understood his first teacher's reasoning as he transformed back to his base form, as the both of them floated back down to the ground to rest. Piccolo teleported his turban and cape back on, crossing his arms and leaving Gohan to lay on the ground. The both of them was silent, but that silence was broken by Piccolo with a question Gohan would never expect from the Namekian.
"So, Gohan. I wanted to know." He paused to turn his head to the Saiyan hybrid, "What are you planning on doing with your life, now that the world is at peace?" Piccolo asks, making Gohan flustered from the sudden question.
"W...what do you mean?" Gohan asked, unable to understand Mr. Piccolo's sudden question.
"I just want to know if you are still going to take up the mantle your father left behind. Because if you don't, the world could be put into danger again." Piccolo said, his stern voice cutting into Gohan like a knife through butter.
"I...I don't know. I want to keep studying so I can become a scholar, but after the Cell Games, I guess I want to keep making my father proud by keeping up with my training. But my mum doesn't like it, so I don't really know." Gohan said, scratching his head with a finger.
"Well whatever you choose, it is your choice, but you need to talk to your mother about this. If you don't train harder, you won't be able to obtain greater power that could help protect the planet in the future." Piccolo said, getting a huff from Gohan, saying she's just worried about him and she wants him to have a successful career.
"You can't have a scholaring career if the planet is destroyed." Piccolo countered, as he began to walk off, but he turned to Gohan to speak again, "If you want to make Goku proud, then you need to talk with Chi-Chi about how seriously you want to take your training." Piccolo finished, vanishing and leaving Gohan alone with his thoughts.
Gohan thought for a moment alone. He wants to make his father proud by keeping up with his training, which he has, but he knows as well as everyone else that he needs to focus on it more if he wants to keep the planet and his family safe. But he also doesn't want to upset his mother, as she gave him the life she fought tooth and nail for. If he just walked up to her and told her he doesn't want to focus on his studies anymore, he'll feel bad when his mother gets upset.
"How can I tell mother what I want if I don't know what I want for myself." Gohan said to himself, picking himself up and flying off back home, a little hesitant to speak his mind to his mother.
[Location: Son Household]
After flying back home, his mum greeted him by the door, as she told him to take a quick bath before dinner was ready. Gohan thanks his mum, Chi-Chi; the Ox princess and daughter of the Ox king, entering their newly installed bathrrom to pour himself a warm bath. Gohan took his training gi off; threw them into the washing basket for Chi-Chi to clean for tomorrow's training spar with Vegeta.
Looking at the finished bath, he held himself back from swan diving into the tub, only because he didn't want to get scolded by his mum by making the whole bathroom soaking wet. Gohan dipped into the bath, taking in the warmth of the water, feeling immediately relaxed from today's spar, his muscles relaxing under the warm water.
Remembering his sparring match with Piccolo, he thought about what he asked him, "I just want to know if you are still going to take up the mantle your father left behind. Because if you don't, the world could be put into danger again."
Gohan pondered how he will achieve both his dream of being a scholar and keeping his father's legacy alive by being the planet's next protector. He knew this talk with his mother was going to happen sooner or later, but he isn't ready for the talk, or will he ever be ready.
"Gohan! Dinner's ready!" Chi-Chi called out, making Gohan jump in fright and slip under the water, causing a lot of noise as his flailing arms knocks down various objects on the tub's edge or on small shelves above.
"Gohan?! Are you alright in there?!" Chi-Chi calls out, worried her son was hurt.
"*cough cough, cough* Y...yeah, I'm fine! Nothing to worry about!" Gohan yelled back after coughing out some bubbled water he accidentally swallowed.
"Alright then. Don't take too long, dinner is waiting for you." Chi-Chi called back, happy her son was fine.
After his abrupt mouth wash, Gohan decided to get out of the bath and dry off, as he put on some new clothes that had been washed by his mother since this morning. A simple white shirt and a dark blue jumper, with light blue pants and some white socks on his feet. Gohan thanked his mother for the new clothes internally, as he opened the bathroom door to see the wide range of food placed on the family dining table. The amount of food on the table made Gohan salivate, his Saiyan instincts to eat to his heart, and his desire almost made him ravage the food like a wild animal. Sometimes Gohan wondered how strong their table was, because the amount of food should have made the table at least buckle or even splinter it, but he just choked it up to some high quality mahogany wood.
"Hope you're hungry dear, because I made sure to make some extra! I hope you enjoy." Chi-Chi said, happy to serve her little boy all the food he needs and wants.
"Hehe, thanks mum! You're the best!" Gohan cheered, jumping onto his own seat by the table.
Gohan placed his hands together and bowed, his eyes closed during his quiet prayer, thanking for the meal in front of him. After his little pray, Chi-Chi also joined in with Gohan, who immidantly started going through the food like a wood chipper with wood chippings. The pile of food almost reached the ceiling, but Chi-Chi watch the pile slowly shrink, as her son ate through them like some uncouth barbarian, but Chi-Chi just smiled, very used to her son's antics, remembering fondly of the many meals Goku ate through, just like her son.
When Chi-Chi finished her own meal, Gohan finished his own, letting out a satisfied burp and thanked his mum for a wonderful meal. Chi-Chi just giggled from her son's antics. She said she is his mother, it is her duty to provide for his needs and wants.
"Now come help wash up the dishes, I want to make sure everything is properly cleaned before we got to bed." Chi-Chi asked and Gohan happily accepted her offer, helping carry the many plates to sink.
Chi-Chi, used to the large amount of dishes and cutlery her family goes through, speeds through the dishes as fast as Gohan ate through his food. Gohan, after delivering the remaining dishes to his mother, goes over and helps dry the dishes off. Once all the dishes were clean, dried and put away, Chi-Chi bends down to Gohan and hugs him, thanking him for his help.
"No worries, mum, I'm happy to always help!" Gohan said, his bright smile reminding her of Goku's own smile he always gave her.
Then his smile drops a little, till his face morphed into a sombre frown, his head lowering with his lips. Chi-Chi noticed the change in her son's mood, never seeing such a quick change in her son, at least during a calm environment. With a warm smile, she asks him if everything is alright, saying she is here and will help him with whatever is on his mind. Gohan didn't move to talk, but Chi-Chi could tell he was deep in thought, thinking about something she didn't know.
("How can I tell her I want to be like my dad? To be a person that protects others, just because it is the right thing to do. How can I ask her?") Gohan thought with puzzeled frustration, when he felt his mother's hand on his cheek.
"Gohan, honey. Is everything okay?" Chi-Chi asked, bringing Gohan back to reality.
"Sorry mum, I was just thinking about something." Gohan said, Chi-Chi lowering her hand down his face.
("Well, this will either be my best idea ever, or my stupidest. One way to find out.") Gohan thought, as he took in a deep breath to calm his nerves to ask his question.
"Mum..." Gohan started, making sure he had his mother's full attention on him, "Why do you hate me fighting?" Gohan finally asked the million dollar question, as he watched his mother face turn to shock, but also a small amount of anger.
"*sigh* Gohan. You know why. It's because I don't like seeing you get hurt. And you're only 11. Your focus shouldn't be on fighting villains. It should be studying for your future." Chi-Chi said, her smile looking forced from Gohan's point of view.
"Then why do you let me train? I get hurt during training, yet you're fine with me training." Gohan asked again, seeing he was getting on his mother's nerves.
"Well, because you want to make your father proud by keeping up with the teachings he taught you. I may not like you going off and training your body, especially with Vegeta, but I always try to give you a life you can enjoy." Chi-Chi explained, trying to keep her emotion in check, as she doesn't want to scream at her son for a simple question she should have expected to be asked sooner or later.
"Then I want to go and fight people. Dad did it, and so do I. I can help people mum, if you allow me to..." Gohan asked his mother, but she quickly cut him off.
"No, Gohan! I don't want my son becoming some vigilante and be hunted by heroes! It'll ruin your future as a scholar. Plus, it is not your job to save people. That is for the heroes." Chi-Chi explained, now getting a little heated with her son.
Gohan could tell his mother wasn't happy, if her disappointed face was anything to tell. So, if he wants to get some answers from her and be able to start becoming the earth's new protector, he needs to, unfortunately, break his mother's limits.
"Then I'll become a hero. I can easily do it. And if I can get into a highly professional high school with a hero course, I can keep up with my studies as well." Gohan offered, and Chi-Chi seemed to relax a little.
"I understand, but you won't be going to any high schools, unfortunately. Your grades are too high to waste your time studying in a high school. It'll be better if you went to a college or university." Chi-Chi said, feeling her anger seemer down.
"But why should I? Why do I have to go to these highly academical insitutions only because I have good grades? Some places needs you to graduate from high school, so my point still stands." Gohan argued back, but his mother's anger seemed to come back.
"Gohan, I don't know where this attitude is coming from, but I believe it would be best to stop this conversation before it escalates." Chi-Chi said through gritted teeth, trying to keep up her smile, but barely failing.
"No mum, I won't! I want to know why I should do things your way when I want to do things my way! I want to go and save people, and if I have to go to high school, then I will. Why is it so hard to understand that I want to protect people like dad did?" Gohan argued, making Chi-Chi lose her smile.
"Gohan... one more word out of you and I'll ban you from training for your whole life. So quit this attitude and go to your room." Chi-Chi demanded, making sure to not raise her voice, trying to stay reasonable, while pointing at Gohan's bedroom door.
Gohan looked to his door, just reading his door's plaque with his name on it. He just ignored it and looked back at his mother, giving her the most stern glare he could give her, a trait from both her and his father.
"No." One word, one single word and that finally broke Chi-Chi's ever patient resolve.
"What the hell did you say? I'm your mother, so you have to listen to me! When I say go to your room, you go! You understand me?!" Chi-Chi roared with broiled fury, the room seemingly shaking from her outburst.
Gohan was startled, but knew he had to stay strong and stand his ground, if he ever wants to obtain what he wants.
"I just want to know why you don't like me fighting! That is all I asked, and you just keep avoiding the question!" Gohan said, Chi-Chi clenching her fists.
"No I don't! I already told you, because you are too young and you can get hurt! What happenes if you come across someone with a strong quirk, huh?! Then what?!" Chi-Chi tried to countered, but Gohan spat back.
"Mum, I'm the strongest person on this planet! Probably the strongest in the entire universe! I might be a little kid, but I know how to fight and I'm smart enough to not make the same mistakes twice!" Gohan argued, seemingly getting nowhere with this conversation.
"But what happens if you do make a mistake and you get seriously hurt? I don't like seeing my little boy getting hurt, it breaks my heart?! Why must you be so selfish?!" Chi-Chi morned, which actually started to piss Gohan off.
"Selfish? Selfish?! You call me selfish?! I'm not dad! I don't want to fight people because I want to! I hate that! It makes me feel like a mindless animal! I want to fight to protect people mum! I want to use my strength to keep people safe and protected! I want to take up my father's mantle of being the world's protector!" Gohan finally declared his reasons to fight, but Chi-Chi wasn't sterd.
"Gohan, you are eleven! No child should be battling villains when there are qualified adults! I almost had multiple panic attacks when you fought Cell, I don't want to think about my baby boy losing his life because I couldn't protect him!" Chi-Chi cried, but Gohan could tell these were fake and believed it was best to calm this situation before it could get out of hand, so he took a deep breath and spoke calmly.
"Mum." Gohan said, his voice quiet and warm.
Chi-Chi looked up to meet her son's gaze, calming a little at those eyes she knew for years. Why must her son be so like him, so much of her Gohan resembling the man she loved, the same man that is no longer with her.
"I'm sorry for shouting at you. I really am. But I'm trying to understand why you hate me fighting." Gohan said, keeping his voice calm and collected.
"I want the real answer, mum. I want to understand why it hurts you so much. Why does it make you so protective over me? Please work with me, it'll help the both of us." Gohan said, taking his mother's hands into his.
"Gohan..." Chi-Chi said quietly, real tears pouring out of her eyes, as they braced each other in a family hug, the quiet heartbeats of his, his mother and his unborn brother filling their ears.
"Please, mum, I just want to know. I need to. Please." Gohan quietly pleaded, feeling his mother's tears on his shoulder as they slowly soaked his jumper.
Chi-Chi didn't answer, but Gohan knew she needed to let things out before she could answer without interuptions. Knowing how his mother is feeling, it makes him feel so horrible, but he stayed strong for his mother, knowing there needs to be a calm mediator between the both of them and his mother was unavailable for such a role.
"I...I just... I just want to keep you safe. To keep you close." Chi-Chi finally started to tell the truth, her tight grip on Gohan becoming more tighter.
"I didn't want to see you leave me, not again. I lost my Goku too many times already, I don't want to lose you either." Chi-Chi explained, Gohan's eyes widening as he realised why his mother hated him fighting.
"I guess dad's death really affected the both of us hard." Gohan said to himself, but Chi-Chi spoke up suddenly.
"Gohan, your dad's death hasn't affected me a lot. At least his second death hasn't. But when he died for the first time, and learning you were kidnapped for a whole year, I barely held myself together." Chi-Chi said, somehow her grip tightening even further.
"I just made it to the end of the year without falling apart, but when I was able to finally see the both of you again, I saw you and your father in the hospital, badly injured. Seeing you hurt like that broke my heart in so many ways." Chi-Chi sobbed, Gohan apologising for making her worry so much back then.
"Then once I got you back, you decided to go off into unknown space, and when your dad fully recovered, we barely spent time together before he headed off to space." Chi-Chi kept up her rant, keeping her hold on Gohan.
"Then when you came back from Namek, Goku decided to not come home so he could train more, then when he did show up, I thought we could finally be a family again. I even allowed you to train with him for some father son bonding, but then that stupid heart virus, then those androids and that entire Cell fiasco. I can barely handle all this stress, and I don't want to go through even more when I lose you! I don't want to lose you again, and I can never forgive myself if I lost you, knowing I could have convinced you to stay away from the fighting." Chi-Chi finally released the rest of her tears, covering the wooden floor in a puddle of her own tears.
Gohan now felt guilty. He yelled at his mum for such a stupid reason. He hated he made his mum so upset and reminded her about her awful trauma he didn't know she even had. Gohan didn't know what to say, his words caught in his throat as they struggled to come out. Knowing what his mother went through, he momentarily decided to abandoned his goals of being the planet's protector, if it'll keep his mother happy.
"Mum I... I'm sor..." Gohan finally brought up the words he wanted to say, but his mother cut him off as she placed her finger on his lips to stop him from talking.
"No, Gohan. I should be the one to apologise." Chi-Chi said, shocking the young Saiyan hybrid.
"Wait what? Why? I made you cry. Why should you be the one to apologise?" Gohan was puzzeled, but Chi-Chi's next words shocked him.
"Because I have been so hard on you. I always tried to give you the best life that I could. To give you the tools to create a good life for your own, to create your own family and children." Chi-Chi said, pulling away from Gohan to look in his eyes.
"I will never understand how important fighting is for you; is literally a part of you, but I can understand your reasons for why you want to fight, and I'm proud of that." Chi-Chi said, giving Gohan a little smile.
"Mum." Gohan quietly spoke, a smile drawing on his face.
"You can't stay my little Gohan forever, and I accepted that a long time ago. But I believed I still had many years left to wait before you left the nest, but it seemed that you have already left, and I was just blind to it." Chi-Chi said, wiping a small amount of tears from Gohan's face.
"I'm proud of you, Gohan. So is your father." Chi-Chi started, as she hugged him once again, "And if you want to continue your training to be the world's new protector, then I will support you the whole way." Chi-Chi said, Gohan edging on tears because now his mother has finally allowed him to train as much as his heart desires, "But promise me you will keep up with your studying. If you are going to fight, I want you to always fight with this..." She taps on his head with her finger, "But to also fight with this." She places her hand on Gohan's chest, referring to his heart.
Gohan couldn't believe it. It was like a dream come true. His metaphorical shackles seemingly being released from him. He was so happy. Happy that his mother believes he can become what he wants to be. Gohan smiled so much, hugging his mum, thanking her profusely.
"I'll make sure to make you and dad proud!" Gohan said, make a promise to his mother.
"We're already proud of you Gohan. Just make sure to not go over board on your training, alright?" Chi-Chi asked Gohan and he nodded.
Once they broke from each other, Gohan helped his mum clean the rest of the house before going to study till bedtime. Chi-Chi was happy seeing her son being so kind, happy to see the best parts of Goku in him.
[Location: Otherworld–Snakeway]
On Snakeway; a one million kilometer long path in the shape of a snake, Goku stood somewhere in the middle of the path watching a crystal ball in his hands. This crystal ball was special, because it allows the earth raised Saiyan to watch his family whenever he wants. A gift given to him by Fortureteller Baba, ordered by King Yama as one of the many rewards Goku was given for being so pure hearted and helping protect the lives of not just his home planet, but countless others and help keep the universe at peace.
Goku was watching the spar between his son and Piccolo, and once Piccolo talked about what Gohan is going to do in the future, Goku was a little saddened that his son doesn't have an idea, but was still proud he was keeping up with his training one way or another. But then the fight between his son and wife broke out. He felt so proud that his son was fighting for what he wants, but his heart broke a little from how much trouble he gave Chi-Chi. He didn't mean to make her worry, but he could at least be happy that Gohan will take care of her and his future son from now on.
"Goku! Goku! Where are you?! I still haven't forgave you for what you did!" Goku heard King Kai, one of his martial arts teachers call for him.
"Oh, hey King Kai! How are you?" Goku asked, giving the north kai a big smile.
"How am I?! Goku, you moron! I am furious! You're the reason I am dead and why I don't have a home! I still have to wait years before I can create my planet again!" King Kai yelled at Goku, pulling the Saiyan's ear to yell in it.
"Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow! I said I was sorry!" Goku pleaded.
"Saying sorry doesn't fix anything! I don't care what you did. You are the most annoying Saiyan I have the pleasure to know!" King Kai yelled even more.
Goku kept pleading, while Bubbles and Gregory watched afar, with a large bag of popcorn and a large cup of soda.
[UA High School–Princible Nedzu's Office]
Principle Nedzu was sorting through some papers, mostly exam papers and reports from teachers. With his quirk, High Specs, Nedzu is able to sort through hundreds a papers in minutes without effort.
As he was sorting through the remaining piles, his phone next to him starts to ring. Pressing the red button, he asks the person on the other side to start talking, as he kept his focus on his own work.
"Hello sir, this is Eraserhead. I have some news you may enjoy." A man spoke through the phone, a man Nedzu knows personally and loves to torment in his free time.
"Ah, Eraserhead! What a pleasure to speak with you on this lovely day! What kind of good news do you have for me?" Nedzu happily asked, taking a sip from his 4th cup of tea of this afternoon.
"It seems the boy you had me spy on has finally accomplish the criteria you have assigned for him." The underground hero says over the phone.
"Would this boy be young Son Gohan by any chance?" Nedzu asked, already knowing the answer and was happy when Eraserhead confirms his correct theory, the man on the phone a little worried, wondering if Nedzu has other heroes spying on children.
Nedzu let a mischievous smile grow on his face. Then a laugh came out, turning into a cackle which frightened the hero on the other end as he shivered in fear.
"Hahahaha! Wonderful, absolutely wonderful! I am so happy to hear the young man has finally come to his senses! Aha hahaha!" Nedzu kept laughing, his tea shaking with his laughter.
Eraserhead, otherwise known as Aizawa Shota, an underground hero and teacher at UA, didn't know how to reply to his boss's laughter, as he absolutely despises the rat, but using his hero training to keep his composure under control, he finally replied.
"Yeah, I am glad to see the kid taking his potential seriously. If he kept up his old behaviour, I would have stepped in and forced it, whether he or his mother liked it or not." Aizawa said, getting a curious grin from the "Rat".
"Oh, is the famous Aizawa getting soft? I thought you only cared for students with potential?" Nedzu asked, already knowing why Aizawa had his eyes on the boy.
"The boy has some of the best potential I have ever seen in my entire life as a teacher and a pro. First is his background as a half Saiyan, and from what we have learned from that crazy scientist, this kid could be the strongest being in the universe. Now that the kid has the drive to improve himself, we can shape him into the hero the planet can rely on when he is needed." Aizawa explained, keeping his eyes on the boy from far away.
"Well said Eraserhead. Now I want you to do something very important." Nedzu congratulated, but his changed of subject gain Aizawa's attention again.
"And that would be sir?" Aizawa asked.
"I want you to go and knock on their door, and offer mister Son a recommendation spot in the upcoming exams." Nedzu explained, causing Aizawa to yell in surprised.
"What the hell?! You know he is eleven, right?" Aizawa said, not understanding why his boss wanted the boy to apply for UA at his age.
"If we snag him right now, we can mold him into a hero before his drive has time to fizzle out. It's a logical way of thinking, wouldn't you say?" Nedzu explained, getting a ln annoyed groan from Aizawa over the phone, as Aizawa shook his head, unable to argue back against his boss's "logical" reasoning.
"Alright sir, I'll go ahead and meet with the Son family. But we do need to explain about why we took interest in him." Aizawa explained and Nedzu agreed.
"I know. Just hope his mother doesn't hurt you too much, because we all know that woman can fight off All Might if she could." Nedzu, for one of the very few times in his life, said in trembling fear.
Aizawa understood the rat's fear. Chi-Chi isn't just a strong martial artist, but also the princess of the Ox King, one of the strongest people on the planet, and her own quirk being a stronger version of her father's, so she is quite the force to reckon with.
Calming his nerves, he told Nedzu he'll call back, once he talks with the son family. Nedzu told him, "Good luck." and even if it came from the devil himself, he will need it if he is going to face that woman.
