A news helicopter flew over the destroyed Jaku City.
"This is an aerial view of Jaku City and what a nightmare." A male news reporter broadcasted as he looked down at the city's destruction. "I'm estimating a third of the city has been completely leveled." The cameraman recorded numerous civilians being stuck on the streets. "Heroes and rescue teams are evacuating citizens, but look at the current state of the streets! It's chaos down there! Dust clouds are obscuring the extent of the damage here, but the scene calls to mind the disaster in Deika City. What terrible force are the heroes fighting against?"
At U.A. High, All Might was watching the devastating destruction of Jaku City inside the teacher's lounge room. Sitting on his lap are Eri and Nico, who were also watching the news. All Might looked on with an extremely concerned look on his face.
"Hosu City, Camino Ward, and now this in Jaku. There seems to be no end to the massive terrorist attacks that began last year." The news reporter continued. "And despite the army of police officers and pros on the ground, no information whatsoever has been released to the press. It begs the question: did authorities know about the catastrophe before it happened? Whatever the case, there's no doubt that the destruction we're witnessing today is worse than any incident in recent history. You have to wonder what exactly is going on in Japan right now. Is this the new normal? The dangerous future we're heading towards?"
On the aerial battlefield, Endeavor fiercely unleashed his flames towards Tomura, who efficiently dodged each fire-based attack while maintaining a sinister smile at the number one hero.
Down below, Gran Torino, Izuku, Luna, and Katsuki observed the aerial combat.
"It appears that the many Quirks All For One collected over the years were transplanted into Shigaraki." Gran Torino said. "That's what Present Mic said, anyway. Still, right now, he's just one person. If we can't stop him, then what's the point of there being so many heroes in this world?"
Somewhere else, Burnin began leading a populous number of heroes to assist the pro heroes in fighting Tomura.
Then suddenly, a horde of Nomus emerged out of the dusty smoke and charged in front of Burnin and the heroes, who all looked stunned by the monsters' sudden appearances.
Even Gran Torino, Izuku, Luna, and Katsuki couldn't believe what they're seeing with wide, stunned eyes and gaping mouths.
"No!" Izuku gasped.
"Where did they come from?" Katsuki cried.
"I thought they were destroyed!" Luna exclaimed.
"The whole lab should've crumbled to dust in that Decay wave!" Gran Torino asked. "So how are there Nomu here?!"
Endeavor concentrated his flames into his fist and punched forward, unleashing a large fiery beam towards Tomura, who swiftly dodged the fiery beam. Endeavor charged forward and delivered multiple fire-based strikes at the dodging Tomura.
Slightly further away from the aerial battlefield, Aizawa focused his sights on Tomura by continuously erasing his Quirks. Rock Lock and Manual watched intensely, especially since Manual continued moistening Aizawa's eyes from blinking.
While Ryukyu flew towards Endeavor and Tomura, Endeavor released long, thin beams of fire to slice Tomura out of his fingertips. But Tomura dodged away and appeared behind Endeavor, who quickly turned around. Tomura dashed towards Endeavor with a powerful punch, sending both of them to crash into the flying Ryukyu and straight onto the ground.
Once the smoke cleared, Tomura stood triumphantly on top of Endeavor and Ryukyu's bodies.
"Ouch. That stung." Tomura said. He held his right fist in the air in a mocking manner. "Hey, Number One. Is this the arm you held up that day? Probably should've checked before I beat you."
"Get off!" Endeavor yelled.
Endeavor launched a large blast of fire at Tomura, who effortlessly evaded and landed away from the number one hero.
"Where did these new Nomus come from?" Endeavor asked as he lifted himself up.
"It's simple. I have full control over Decay now." Tomura said as he stared at his hands. "I wanted to keep the capsules from getting destroyed during that first wave, but I just couldn't save them all."
With a smirk on his face, Tomura gleefully watched the Nomus attacking Burnin and some of the heroes upon contact.
Gran Torino started floating by shooting air from the open holes on the soles of his feet.
"Not good! They're heading for Eraser Head now!" Gran Torino exclaimed. He swiftly propelled towards Aizawa with incredible speed. "You two keep yourselves hidden!"
Izuku, Luna, and Katsuki silently watched Gran Torino jetting towards the battlefield. Only Luna and Izuku couldn't stop thinking Gran Torino told them about Tomura obtaining All For One's Quirk as a worst-case scenario with a flicker of fear on their faces.
Endeavor charged forward once again and launched a large fiery beam at Tomura. But Tomura effortlessly evaded the fiery beam as he quickly rocketed high into the sky. He turned his head to the right and glanced at the sight of Aizawa from a distance.
"You know, if your eyes are on me, then you should assume I can see you as well." Tomura noted.
Tomura landed back on the ground and swiftly darted toward Aizawa.
"Eraser Head, you're standing in my way!" Tomura said.
In an instant, Tomura was beginning to approach Aizawa's direction. Rock Lock moved from Aizawa and proceeded to strike Tomura, but he missed his chance.
If I die here and your Quirks return, you'll be unstoppable! Aizawa thought in shock. There are still people I have to keep watch over. Until the day they graduate and become heroes! He took out a knife from his utility belt. You think I'm a problem? Look around.
"You're the one who's standing in the way!" Aizawa yelled.
Too slow. I won't make it! Gran Torino thought as he found himself too far away to save Aizawa.
Just as Tomura was approximately close towards Aizawa, a sudden surge of green and pink energy unexpectedly came out of nowhere. Izuku and Luna suddenly tackled Tomura, causing them to lock intense eyes and collide their foreheads against each other.
Aizawa looked on with a wide-eyed face.
"Mr. Aizawa! It's okay!" Luna shouted.
"No, kids!" Gran Torino exclaimed with a bewildered face.
"If Shigaraki can't use his powers, then let us join the fight against him!" Izuku declared.
Izuku and Luna are silently aware that most of the pros are fighting the Nomu that just showed up out of nowhere and none of them can get the fight in time because there aren't enough heroes left to stop Shigaraki. Because the failure of Erasure will result devastation on the battlefield if Shigaraki can regain using Decay again.
"The worst thing would be losing Mr. Aizawa!" Izuku shouted at Tomura.
"He's protected his students this whole time! We can't lose him after everything he's done!" Luna added.
"Or what are we even doing?" Izuku yelled.
Suddenly, Katsuki appeared behind Izuku and Luna.
"It's our turn!" Katsuki declared. "To return the flavor!"
At the same time, Izuku somersaulted over Tomura and landed behind him. He released light blackish-teal energy tendrils to fasten and restrain Tomura in a firm hold just as Luna backflipped away from Tomura and activated her Exofists.
"How's this for rational, Teach? AP Machine Gun!" Katsuki hollered.
Katsuki unleashed a barrage of small but powerful explosions at Tomura. At the same time, Luna fired off her Exofists and rocketed them straight to Tomura in a large explosion. But Tomura stood completely unfazed by Katsuki's explosive assault once the smoke cleared out.
"Heh! Aren't those fireworks adorable?" Tomura taunted with a mocking smile.
When Tomura attempted to move, Izuku restrained him tightly with his Blackwhip. But Tomura's superior physical strength propelled him to rush through the air, sending Izuku to fly away past Katsuki and Luna.
Then, Tomura swiftly appeared in front of Katsuki.
"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid you're just not interested to me anymore." Tomura said to Katsuki. His eyes moved to Luna with an obsessive smile. "You, on the other hand, are still an exception."
Katsuki narrowed his eyes with a dangerous glare while Luna looked disturbingly frightened.
Suddenly, Endeavor charged out of nowhere and delivered a powerful blazing punch that sent Tomura rolling backwards across the battlefield.
"Endeavor, sir!" Izuku said.
"Where is Shoto?" Endeavor asked.
"Outside the zone." Izuku responded.
Tomura narrowed his eyes with a menacing glare as he halted his momentum on the ground.
"Hm. I was awfully close to my goal there for a second." Tomura grumbled.
Gran Torino joined Endeavor, Izuku, Luna, and Katsuki.
"Shigaraki's physical abilities have become extraordinary." Gran Torino stated.
"His power and endurance are comparable to All Might's now." Endeavor remarked.
"Really? How?" Izuku asked.
"As long as I don't blink, that physical strength is his only advantage." Aizawa added as he joined the others with Rock Lock and Manual. "I'll keep my eyes open as long as I can."
"Deku. Bakugo. Luna. There's nothing we can do about you three being here." Endeavor stated. "I won't ask why you came. But we need to support Eraser! Bakugo, you cover Deku and Luna!"
Then, Tomura charged forward toward the heroes once again.
It might be best to grab Midoriya and Luna, and get out of here. Tomura thought.
At that very moment, Tomura grunted in pain when a piercing voice uttered inside his mind.
You must take their ability. All For One's voice thought.
One For All…Divine Trinity... Tomura thought.
"Come to me, dear little brother." Tomura spoke with an overlapped mix of his and All For One's voice.
That earned a shock from both Tomura and Izuku.
Endeavor unleashed another long, thin blasts of fire at Tomura from his fingertips, which Tomura started dodging with swiftness.
Little brother? Tomura thought in confusion. That wasn't me talking. He grew a wide, sinister smile on his face. Your ego is too big, Master. This is my power. My body. I won't let a voice in my head turn me into some kind of puppet. There's something I've been wondering. How could a person called the "Lord of Evil" be brought to his knees by a single man? I'm grateful for the way you raised me. Truly I am. But...I have no desire to turn out like you. I want to be much, much better. So, shut up.
"I'm taking those Quirks because it's my will." Tomura declared as he reached his hand forward.
But Gran Torino swiftly kicked Tomura's hand away.
"One blow could be fatal, but I excel at dodging! I trained a guy with crazy strength!" Gran Torino yelled. "By companion, this'll be a breeze!" He then seized Tomura's shoulder with a firm, angry tone in his voice. "You coward! I won't let you keep disgracing Shimura's memory!"
"And who is that?" Tomura asked with a bored expression.
"Your very existence pains Toshinori!" Gran Torino bellowed as he flexed his muscles. "You're the disease destroying this world!"
"You can think whatever you want." Tomura said.
Once Endeavor came flying towards Tomura and Gran Torino, Tomura grew a crazed smile on his face. He moved aside out of Gran Torino's grasp and blasted away in the air, causing Endeavor to halt from racing to assist Gran Torino.
While soaring in the air, Tomura gazed down at the glaring Izuku and Luna.
"Try what you will!" Tomura declared. "One For All and Divine Trinity will be mine!"
Suddenly, Katsuki hovered above Tomura.
"Think you can ignore me?" Katsuki shouted. He clutched the pin on his gauntlet and took an aim at Tomura. "Heh. You're dumber than you look! Can't you see they're just the bait, ya moron?"
Katsuki removed the pin from his gauntlet and unleashed an enormous explosion that completely engulfed Tomura.
Then, Izuku and Luna immediately leaped into the air from opposite directions.
"Smash!" Izuku hollered.
Izuku delivered a powerful roundhouse kick that sent Tomura flying away to Luna's direction.
"Exofists!" Luna yelled.
Luna delivered a barrage of powerful punches before launching a final punch that sent Tomura plunging away.
Endeavor began charging straight towards Tomura. He utilized Katsuki's explosive power and shaped his flames into a large fist around his hand.
"Vanishing Fist!" Endeavor hollered.
Endeavor delivered a powerful punch to Tomura's chest with explosive impact.
Down below, Rock Lock, Aizawa, and Manual stared at Endeavor's detonative display of firepower.
Meanwhile, Tarot Chariot groaned as she slowly got up on her feet. She looked around and found herself in a spacious circular room that had black walls with a diamond grid design lined with multicolored glow and a metallic gray floor that also showed a diamond grid design.
Standing at the center of the room were Carina and Ariella.
"Hello, little sister." Carina greeted. She noticed that Luna isn't with Tarot Chariot. "Where's your daughter?"
"Like I would ever tell you." Tarot Chariot snapped.
Carina ignored Tarot Chariot's response and stared at her composed face.
"No matter. We will find your daughter and bring her here where it's safe from Shigaraki's tyranny." Carina said.
"I won't allow my daughter to be part of this." Tarot Chariot said.
"Ursula, enough." Carina said angrily. "You can't keep rebelling this family anymore. It may have worked back then in the past, but it won't work today. Now, come to your senses and we can be a family again.
"I. Won't." Tarot Chariot rebuffed firmly. "I told you before. My husband and my daughter are my family now."
"Then I'll make you come to your senses myself." Carina said as she narrowed her eyes.
Carina took a sprinting position, but Ariella quickly threw a concentrated burst of blue energy that knocked her older sister towards the wall across the room.
"Ariella?!" Carina exclaimed incredulously.
Tarot Chariot looked on in shock as she was utterly surprised by Ariella's own action.
"I'm sorry, Carina. But Ursula's right." Ariella said with a firm expression. "This family has suffered long enough. It's time for our coven to be disbanded for good."
Carina growled angrily and then sprinted towards Ariella and Tarot Chariot, engaging her younger sisters in a Divine Trinity combat.
Enjoy and review.
