After finding the cursed womb that has trapped our heroes inside its domain, Gojo switches into the fray and finally showcases the pinnacle of his Jujutsu. But this is not the end of it. An old enemy lurks in the shadows, threatening our heroes and the world around them.

ElderTitan: A nice thought, though highly unlikely. Still wholesome.

EngineerGaming1: Thank you.

Wizardwolf 1020: I mean, being a sorcerer can turn you insane, so I guess that cancels it out?


Chapter 5: Stitches


"Oh? So he puts out his domain?" A sigh, then a snicker at the absurdity. "Well, I suppose it is Satoru Gojo. He never passes the opportunity to show off."

The person puts his binoculars aside and moves their attention toward a small nail next to them. The nail was wrapped around in ancient talismans, and they picked it up, imbuing it with cursed energy.

The person stares down at the streets below him, specifically at the purple beacon that had shot into the sky, and decides the time is ready. They walk towards the center of the building they were on the roof of and place the nail in the center.

"Emerge from darkness, blacker than darkness. Purify that which is impure." The person chanted with both his index and middle fingers raised.

The talisman began to glow with cursed energy. The person then looked up with satisfaction as an inky black substance painted itself in the sky, dripping down as it formed a spherical dome in the surrounding area.

The person smiled. For the next thirty minutes, everyone is trapped inside the veil. A refined barrier technique, fine-tuned for the show they have planned.

"I guess it's time for me to make my debut. Now that All Might is out of the business, it is time to grace the world with your presence once more…"

The person brushes off the long black bangs off their face to reveal a long scar that wraps around the head, held together by multiple stitches.

"Eh, Shimura?"


"Domain Expansion: Unlimited Void."

As Gojo crosses his fingers, the environment around the Pro Heroes begins to change. A flash of white, and it looks like they are traveling through space faster than light speed. The cursed spirit stops in its tracks, frozen and overwhelmed.

The lightspeed effect stops, and now the Pro Heroes find themselves in a starry void. A supermassive black hole was seen in the distance, and splotches of white came to splatter the surrounding void. The Pro Heroes looked around at the void in awe.

"Whoa…"

"What is this?"

"This is…" Midoriya looked around in awe at the void around them. "Unlimited Void."

"Hmph, be careful there Midoriya." Gojo chuckled a bit. "Let go of me and you'll be exposed to the effects."

"And what are these… effects?" Aizawa asked.

"I have essentially brought you all into the inner world of the Limitless." Gojo looked at the cursed spirit that was still frozen in place. "If you aren't making contact with me, boundless raw information will flood your mind. For humans, even a mere moment in here can leave you out cold for the next few months."

"S-So you're saying we can't let go?!" Mt. Lady asked.

"Not if you wanna avoid being a vegetable," Gojo stated. "Scary, isn't it? Being able to see and feel everything around you, but you're still unable to do anything at all. One of the many reasons why the concept of Infinity is absolutely terrifying."

"Y-Yeah…" Rock Lock gulped a bit in fear.

"Well, not to fret. I'll deal with the cursed spirit in a bit and we can all go home." Gojo smiled.

The sorcerer walked slowly towards the cursed spirit, slowly enough so that the Pro Heroes didn't accidentally let go and be exposed to the effects of Unlimited Void.

Midoriya had to admit that this was a very scary ability. In fact, he wasn't expecting such a terrifying ability since what he had seen the Limitless do so far was a highly refined space manipulation ability, an already powerful ability on its own.

And this was apparently the pinnacle of Gojo's Jujutsu.

"Gojo, so what you're saying is that Uraraka has the potential to learn all this?" Midoriya asked.

"Yup. As my vessel, she inherits all that my cursed technique has to offer." Gojo stated. "Trust me when I say that being a Jujutsu sorcerer is a dangerous job. You saw it yourself when Uraraka had her hand sliced off."

"So you intend to put Uraraka on the path of Jujutsu sorcery?" Aizawa asked.

"If she wants to. Though for the moment, we're possibly the only Jujutsu sorcerers even alive at the moment." Gojo stated. "Once we get a bit more leeway, it will be her decision. I promise."

"You… promise?" Aizawa raised an eyebrow skeptically at the statement.

"Of course. I won't deny someone so young the right to enjoy life. You're a teacher, right? So I'm guessing you understand my sentiment." Gojo turned to the cursed spirit.

"What are you guys talking about?" Mt. Lady asked.

"Not now, Takeyama." Kamui Woods told his teammate.

"Why am I the only one asking questions, then?!" Mt. Lady asked ecstatically.

"Don't worry, I'll explain everything to you guys once this is all over." Gojo then grabbed the immobilized cursed spirit on its head. "Well then, I can't let a curse like you threaten people, can I?"

The sorcerer began to pull the cursed spirit's head, watching it struggle as he began to rip it off its shoulders. The Pro Heroes nearly got sick at the sight.

"Of course not…" Gojo lets out a menacing grin as he begins to pull the cursed spirit's head off even more.

After a few agonizing moments, Gojo rips the cursed spirit's head off, sending a viscous purple liquid to bleed vehemently off the stump.

With his work done, Gojo carelessly threw the dismembered head away.

"Um, Gojo? Was there another cursed womb back there?" Uraraka asked, with the memory of two large sacs being part of the same womb.

"Hmm?"

"Disperse!"

Suddenly, Gojo found himself on top of a building, now outside the church which is currently a couple blocks out. Strange, considering that they were just at the church basement moments later.

"W-Where did we go?!" Uraraka wondered with fear.

"Ghh, that second cursed womb had sent us out of the church," Gojo stated. "Looks like we've been teleported by the looks of things."

The Six Eyes began to detect the respective Quirk Factors of the Pro Heroes that the sorcerer was with. Each of them was spread out around the city. Midoriya, Aizawa, Kamui Woods, Death Arms, Rock Lock, Mt. Lady. All of them were spread around the immediate area by this second cursed spirit.

"Well, whatever that was, they did us a huge favor by getting us out of there. I did not want to have to deal with the press." Gojo sighed before looking around. "Oh, lookie here."

Good news, the purple beacon seemed to have disappeared. Probably when he killed that cursed spirit.

Bad news, there was a Veil now covering the surrounding area.

"Huh. That's weird." Gojo commented with a huff.

"What do you mean, Gojo?" Uraraka asked.

"A Veil. A powerful one at that." Gojo looked at the barrier. "Looks like we got another sorcerer, but I don't think they're friendly."

"Wait, didn't you say that we're the only sorcerers alive right now?"

"I said possibly. And I have a sneaking suspicion that I know who it is." Gojo turned to the walls of the Veil and began to sprint towards it.


"HEY! What's going on here?!"

"What is that?!"

"Hey! Are we trapped in here?!"

The confused citizens in the area had their attention moved from the situation at the Kama-Tahl Church to the giant dome of black that surrounded the area.

Pro Heroes in the area have also moved their attention to trying to break through the Veil that had trapped everyone inside. Gojo manages to reach the Veil from the top of the building and looks down at what is going on in the streets. The citizens were looking on in confusion and fear as the heroes were trying to do everything in their power to break through.

"Well, that's not good," Gojo stated. "Both heroes and citizens are trapped here."

Gojo moves his hand over to the Veil and attempts to push through, but a burst of cursed energy stops him from exiting.

"As I thought, we're also trapped. Whoever cast this Veil really knows their craft." Gojo commented.

"But why are they trapping us here? What do they want with trapping us and all these citizens inside?" Uraraka asked.

"I have no idea. But it's really a hassle." Gojo scratches the back of his head. "Well, seeing as your boyfriend and the Pro Heroes are out of the church, I guess we should start finding the source and kick his ass."

"Why do you have to keep pointing that out?!" If one can blush in a Domain, Uraraka would be doing it. Gojo snickers.

"What? It's fun." Gojo chuckled.

"How is it that you're the strongest again?"

"I ask myself that every day." The sorcerer then looked towards the roof of a building that was radiating a lot of cursed energy; possibly the source of this Veil. "There. Thought you could hide from me, did you?"


Aizawa was quick to shake off his confusion. He wasn't sure what happened; one moment, he was inside Gojo's Domain, under the church, and the next, he was suddenly back in the alleyway behind Kama-Tahl. None of the Pro Heroes and his two students were nearby. There must be some sort of teleporting ability to get them to separate. Either a Quirk or those "cursed techniques" Gojo keeps talking about.

Looking up, the underground hero raised an eyebrow at the massive black dome that had covered the night sky. Was this an attack? Was this connected to whoever set up those cursed wombs in the church?

"Shit. We're trapped." Aizawa began to look around, mind focusing on the students he was with. "They can't have gone far, I have to make sure they're okay."

Aizawa prepared his capture weapon to traverse the city to find his students, but as he shot out his capture weapon, he felt a hand grasp his neck, stopping him from moving. The hand gripped even further, causing the homeroom teacher to gasp for air.

"I… I know this is a sudden question… but do you know a man named Kenjaku? I… feel the need to see him."

The voice was raspy and tired, like how someone would wake up from a nap or a coma. Like how that damn Shigaraki would talk. This was not Shigaraki; all five fingers were touching him, yet he wasn't disintegrating into dust. A bit of relief, but he still isn't letting his guard down.

After all, this person had managed to sneak up on him and had completely masked his presence while doing so. Not an easy feat. This guy's dangerous.

"No, I don't know who this Kenjaku is." Aizawa decided to play along. It was clear that whoever this was was still in a state of confusion. He had dealt with drunkards and stoners before, it's easy to coerce them if he played his cards right. He just hoped it would work here.

"Oh?"

A bit of shifting was heard right behind him. Possibly looking around. This guess was further exacerbated as Aizawa felt the hold on his neck begin to loosen. He began to prepare himself, mentally planning how to capture this strange person in one fell swoop once he let go. He puts his Erasure at the ready…

The hand around him grips even tighter than ever, causing the homeroom teacher to gasp once more.

"You… have an energy around you. I can see it. I can feel it…" The person now had a sort of desperation in his voice. He sounded like he was starving. He sounded ravenous. "I don't know why, but… I want it…"

The fingers around Aizawa's neck began to glow an ominous purple glow. Suddenly, his eyes were subjected to searing pain, as if all the nerves inside them were on fire and were being pulled out.

In that single moment, the usually calm and collected Eraserhead began to scream.


"Hmm?"

The Six Eyes detect another spike of cursed energy. Gojo turns to the right; it's right next to the Kama-Tahl. The energy signature of Aizawa's Quirk Factor was right next to it, and it was flickering at an alarming rate.

"I-Is that Aizawa-sensei?!" Uraraka gasped upon recognizing Erasure's energy signature.

"Yeah, it is." Gojo sighed.

"Let me switch! Now!" The girl suddenly demanded.

"Huh? You want to switch?" Gojo asked, raising an eyebrow. "This might be that other cursed womb we fought, right? Possible Special Grade?

"I know, but you were talking about if I want to continue the path of a Jujutsu sorcerer, right?" Uraraka asked in desperation. "Well, I've made my decision! I'm gonna take initiative in my own life and learn how to use sorcery to be a hero!"

"I have made my decision back at the dorms. I'll be a Jujutsu sorcerer as well as a hero! There's a reason why I became your vessel, and I'm gonna find it! So please, let me learn how to fight curses like you!"

Hearing her plea and wanting to find her purpose, Gojo smirks as he is reminded of a certain pink-haired student of his in the past. This lasts a few seconds before snow-white hair turns back to brown. Uraraka had returned to her body.

"Man, I wonder where you got that stubbornness from. It better not be from that green kid Midoriya." Gojo commented after giving back control to his vessel.

Uraraka had to wonder for a bit where she had gotten this stubborn attitude. Maybe it was Midoriya's antics and encounters with the League of Villains that caused his attitude to rub off on her. Maybe she had it before that. After all, she did take it upon herself to join UA and become a hero so that her parents could have their burdens lifted even just a little.

What she does know is that it was this stubbornness that had driven her throughout their school year. It was this stubbornness that had helped her power through the Sports Festival and their encounters with the League. She'll learn Jujutsu if it means she can bring smiles to more people's faces.

"Thank you, Gojo-sensei." Uraraka felt the man smile after she called her that. "I'll do my best as your vessel."

With that last declaration, Uraraka uses Zero Gravity on herself and begins to float from building to building as she makes her way back to the Kama-Tahl church.


A green flash began to race through the alleyways. Midoriya began to push himself. The screams of his homeroom teacher cleared in his mind as he moved through the city with 35% Full Cowl.

"Must return to the Kama-Tahl! Aizawa-sensei's being attacked, I have to help him!" Midoriya uses Blackwhip on the buildings around him to get faster speed.

The church was in sight, and with one more tug of Blackwhip, the green-haired boy swung into the alleyway once again at high speeds.

There, he sees it. His homeroom teacher crouches on the ground, hand covering his eyes as if in immense pain, and his attacker. What appeared to be a humanoid figure was looming over the underground hero, bearing pale skin and heterochromia eyes; dark purple and pale blue. He had matte black hair and had a very dirty style. He had a sort of purple gemstone on his chest, from which emerged a tattered black and white robe of Buddhist origin.

"You… what did you do to Aizawa-sensei?!" Midoriya yelled out as he planted his feet onto the wall of the Kama-Tahl church. "Full Cowl!"

The kid bursts forth, flying straight at his teacher's attacker, his leg pulled back ready for an attack.

"40% St. Louis Smash!"

The person finally moved his gaze towards the hero-in-training, and his heterochromatic eyes turned a familiar deep red glow. Midoriya gasps, suddenly feeling his energy levels drop. He flies past this strange individual and crashes painfully into a nearby trash can.

He gasps painfully, unable to fortify his body with his Quirk for the impact.

"W-What was…?!" Midoriya lets out another gasp of air to remedy his pain. "Ach… my Quirk didn't work?"

"Quirk?"

Midoriya opened his eyes to see the strange figure currently standing above him. His dark red eyes felt like they were peering into his soul.

"This energy… I can cancel other energies with it, huh?" The person spoke with a bit of childish curiosity.

"Energy? What are you talking about?" Midoriya groaned in pain.

"I don't know… that man there had an energy I can see… and I took it." The person then looked down at his hand. "I feel exhilarated… That energy is such a rush! I want more!"

The boy tries to charge up One For All throughout his body using Full Cowl but finds that he isn't able to.

"W-What?" Midoriya turned to the person once again.

"I want to take your energy. I want it!" The person threw out his hand at the hero student but was easily dodged.

Midoriya flips away from the person as their hand collides with a nearby wall, causing a part of it to shatter considerably. The hero student grits his teeth at the sight, wondering what the heck was this guy in front of him.

"Aizawa-sensei! What did this guy do to you?!" Midoriya quickly asked his homeroom teacher.

"Ghh… this might be a stretch, but…" Aizawa eyed the person with a serious intensity. "I think this bastard… stole my Erasure… he stole my Quirk."

That caused Midoriya's eyes to open in shock. Did he steal Erasure? He stole a Quirk?! That shouldn't be possible, the only one who was able to do that was All For One, and he's been locked up in Tartarus for months now!

Observing this strange person, the boy has to wonder if this person really was All For One. Last he remembered, the demon lord had a large stature and was wearing a sort of breathing apparatus. This guy wasn't. He looked young despite his pale skin and he more or less resembles Shigaraki. Ugh, he really didn't want to think about Shigaraki at a time like this.

The figure steps forth, and Midoriya steps back.

"Your energy… your Quirk…" The figure spoke. "I don't know why, but I want it. I really really want it."

Does this guy know about One For All?

With the strange man using Aizawa's Erasure on him, Midoriya knew he couldn't do anything with his Quirk. No access to Blackwhip or the Quirk's overall raw power. He attempts to guard himself as the figure continues to walk towards him.

Suddenly, the figure stops. He turns to the right, towards a tall building overlooking the area. Possibly the tallest building that was within the confines of the Veil.

"Ken… jaku…"

Realizing that Erasure wasn't on him now, Midoriya flares up Full Cowl back up to 40% and jumps at the person with a kick.

"Manchester Smash!"

The person quickly moves out of the way, causing Midoriya to miss his kick. But as he reeled to launch once more, the person had already jumped up to the rooftops and was making his way toward the tallest building area.

"Midoriya, don't you dare think about coming after him!" Aizawa demanded, having begun to sit up after his injury.

"Your Quirk got taken by him! I have to make him give it back!" Midoriya used Blackwhip to slingshot himself up above the city in pursuit of the assailant.

"Midoriya!" Aizawa's protest quickly became distant as the green-haired boy flew over the city of Musutafu.

As Midoriya soared through the air, he spotted the person currently jumping between rooftops, slowly making his way toward the taller office building.

"Over there!"

Locking into his goal, he shoots out Blackwhip once more, ready to shoot himself through the air for a devastating attack.

"Full Cowl plus Blackwhip! Manchester-"

The man looks back and uses Erasure on the boy. Midoriya felt his energy drop once more, and the Blackwhip disappeared in an instant.

"Oh no!"

Midoriya quickly found himself falling from the sky, his momentum shifting downwards with nothing being able to slow him down. He puts his arms up, preparing to brace himself for impact.

"This is really gonna hurt!" Midoriya held his breath as the ground came closer.

The boy collided painfully with the rooftop floor he found himself falling towards, tumbling forth as he struggled to gain his bearings. He gasps at every painful impact he takes.

Suddenly, this painful crashing stopped as Midoriya's head collided with a wall. The wall of the building's stairwell entrance. He slowly recoiled, rubbing his forehead in pain.

"Agh… that hurts…" Midoriya groaned out, realizing that his forehead was bleeding.

Slowly standing up, he slowly regained his bearings while wiping the blood off his forehead. As he was doing this, he noticed the sounds of footsteps getting closer. He turns and sees Uraraka jumping towards him from another rooftop.

"Deku!"

"Uraraka-san!"

"What happened to you?!" Uraraka asked with worry.

"Just a head injury. I'm fine." Midoriya then turned back to his escapee, still trying to flee.

"What happened to Aizawa-sensei?!" Uraraka asked.

"He…" Midoriya's words caught in his mouth, causing him to gulp once again. "He got his Erasure stolen from him."

Uraraka's eyes grew in surprise. "He got his Quirk taken from him?! How?!"

Midoriya pointed once again to the fleeing person. Uraraka sees him as well, and the Six Eyes detect the cursed energy emanating from him.

"Is that a cursed spirit?" Uraraka asked.

"Yup, it is. It must've come out of the same cursed womb as the one we fought downstairs." Gojo's mouth spoke once more. "We must not let it escape if it has a cursed technique that can steal Quirks. If 80% of you guys really do have Quirks, he's too dangerous to be left alive."

"Right." Midoriya nodded and shot out another tendril of Blackwhip. "Uraraka, you have to be the first to initiate an attack. Even if he erases your Quirk, your cursed energy will be able to damage him."

"Okay." Uraraka nodded, before using Zero Gravity on Midoriya.

The green-haired hero student leaped a large distance with both Full Cowl and Zero Gravity increasing his jumping distance. Once he reaches a good distance, he shoots two more Blackwhip tendrils in opposite directions. One attaches itself to a building's sturdy foundation, and the other is shot towards Uraraka for her to grab.

"Blackwhip!" Midoriya uses 40% Full Cowl to pull on the Blackwhip.

The sheer strength of the pull causes Uraraka to fly through the air. The girl adjusts herself to the high speeds as she flies past Midoriya.

"Plus Zero Gravity!" Uraraka yelled out, having used her Quirk on herself.

As the distance shrunk, Uraraka opened her arms up ready for the cursed spirit. He turns around as he realizes what is coming and tries to use Erasure, but the momentum is enough for the girl to tackle him with full force.

"Zero Sling!"

Uraraka found herself tumbling across the floor with the humanoid cursed spirit in her grasp. They came to a painful stop after a moment, and the girl slowly stood up, faster than the cursed spirit was.

"Must… get to…" The cursed spirit muttered.

"This thing can talk. It's on a whole 'nother level compared to the one I exorcized back in the church. A Special Grade." Gojo's mouth appeared once again to speak to the girl. "But he's still confused. Must've been exposed to Infinite Void. Be quick."

"Okay. But I need to know one thing." Uraraka stated before looking at the cursed spirit still trying to stand up. "That Quirk you stole. Can you return it to Aizawa-sensei?"

"Quirk…?" The cursed spirit looked at her curiously. "A Quirk, huh…? Is that the energy I can use on my eyes…?"

"Yes. That Quirk. Can you return it to its rightful owner?" Uraraka asked.

"Heh… As if I want to… Extracting that energy… I can feel it coursing through my being… my soul…" The cursed spirit turns to her with a terrifying grin, eyes glowing red once more. "There's no way I'll let you take it from me."

Uraraka discreetly uses all five fingers on herself, to confirm one last time if it was a bluff. No weight loss. It's true, her Quirk has been erased, meaning this thing really did steal Aizawa-sensei's Erasure Quirk. The girl takes a deep breath, channeling her cursed energy through her fists.

"That Quirk is important to Aizawa-sensei. It's what allows him to do hero work, to make at least one person smile in this world." Uraraka brought her hands up, hands flaring with her cursed energy. "If you're gonna deprive him of that duty, then as a Jujutsu sorcerer and a hero in training, I will exorcize you."

"Heh, come and get it."

The cursed spirit jumps upwards, trying to continue heading towards where he wants to go. Uraraka quickly reacts by jumping up and grabbing him by the heel.

"I won't let you get away!"

The girl pulls down on the cursed spirit's leg, sending it crashing into the floor. She then follows up by throwing him into a nearby wall. It grunts in pain after the impact.

Uraraka tries to follow up with a punch infused with cursed energy, but the cursed spirit manages to dodge and counter with a punch straight into her stomach.

"Gghh!"

Then starts a series of trading strikes. The cursed spirit puts pressure on the girl with his unexpectedly fast punches, which were being parried and redirected by Uraraka to the best of her ability.

She steps back, the advantage she had gained quickly being lost as the cursed spirit continued to pressure her.

"I'm really really in love with this rush! This vigor! I won't let you take it from me now!" The cursed spirit roared out.

"Gunhead Martial Arts is a purely defensive fighting style. I can fend him off, but I can't find the right footing where my strikes would count!" Uraraka grits her teeth.

She persists, managing to fight off powerful blows coming from the cursed spirit.

"St. Louis Smash!"

Midoriya finally blitzes into the fray as he connects a powerful roundhouse kick into the head of the cursed spirit.

The green-haired boy lands next to Uraraka as the cursed spirit recovers from the blow; no lasting damage from the kick because of Midoriya's lack of cursed energy, but he is stunned nonetheless.

"Uraraka-san! I have a plan!" Midoriya turned to the girl. "Only I'm faster than him, and only you can damage him! I'll give you chances to attack!"

Midoriya stood firm, with Uraraka standing next to him. One's hands crackled with powerful green lightning, and the other's flashed blue with a torrent of cursed energy. The cursed spirit looked at them with a sadistic grin and charged at the two.

"MAKE THEM COUNT!"

Midoriya quickly charges at the cursed spirit and bashes both his knees into the head of the cursed spirit. Uraraka followed suit, ducking down and striking the cursed spirit in the stomach as well.

The cursed spirit faltered back and attempted to retaliate. Midoriya appeared behind him in a flash of green lightning and kicked him in the back of the head, followed by Uraraka striking him twice in the abdomen.

Fearing another blitz, the cursed spirit predicts Midoriya appearing to his side and blocking his three kicks in quick succession. However, three powerful bursts of energy from the kicks meant the cursed spirit was stunned enough for Uraraka to come up next to him and strike him in the side.

With the torrent of powerful strikes and blows, the situation quickly devolved to Uraraka and Midoriya simultaneously attacking the cursed spirit with their attacks. This wasn't a villain, this was a being formed for the sole purpose of cursing the existence of others. They were not gonna let him get away, and if what Gojo said about it being very strong was true, they weren't gonna let him breathe.

The cursed spirit was on the ground at this point, battered and beaten by the hero students trying to keep him down. The students pant heavily, having spent tens of minutes fighting this guy.

"One last chance." Midoriya spoke out.

"Are you gonna return Aizawa-sensei's Quirk?" Uraraka asked.

"Heh… heh…" The cursed spirit limped his head back, mouth bleeding with purple cursed energy. "As if…"

Uraraka pulls her arm back in order to finally exorcise the cursed spirit when something appears directly in front of her. She only had a split second to get a glimpse of the new person; shoulder-length black hair, yellow gloves currently making contact with her abdomen, and stitches wrapping around her head.

Domain Expansions are techniques able to end fights once they have been played. This comes at the cost of massive cursed energy expenditure and the cursed technique of the caster being worn out. Akin to an overheated car engine, cursed technique burnout requires a lot of time to wait out before the technique can be used.

At this moment, any attacks can hit Ochako Uraraka without being slowed by Infinity.

"Uraraka, switch with me, now!"

"Soul Dismantle."

Two quick strikes and Uraraka found herself flying away a short distance. She lands painfully but quickly looks at herself to inspect the damage.

"N-No damage?" Uraraka continued to inspect herself in confusion.

"Kenja-" The cursed spirit called out.

"No no, you get some rest. I'll take it from here." The woman dismisses the cursed spirit, like how a mother would tell their child to calm down.

The new figure that had appeared took a step forward, walking past the shocked Midoriya as he continued to walk towards Uraraka.

The woman had a hero costume on, but it wasn't someone Uraraka recognized. She had a well-built physique, with a black full-bodysuit, yellow gloves and boots, a small red cape wrapped around her waist, and a larger white cape wrapped around her shoulders.

But Uraraka still didn't recognize her. All she knew was that the woman had a line of stitches wrapped around her head that seemed familiar to her. With the amount of cursed energy radiating off of her, it was clear that she was a powerful sorcerer.

"Gojo? Aren't you gonna switch with me?" Uraraka asked with worry.

"I'm trying… but I can't seem to take hold," Gojo speaks internally with a hint of frustration in voice.

"What?!" Uraraka gasps before turning back to the new sorcerer.

Midoriya suddenly flashed with green lightning, running at the new sorcerer at full force. He jumps at her with a powerful kick.

"45% Manchester Smash!"

The new sorcerer merely dodges to the side of the attack, as Midoriya readjusts his form and skids onto the ground, stopping just next to Uraraka. The girl could see the large amount of anger coming from the boy, and this was evident as the energy Midoriya was emitting was beginning to rise.

"Midoriya, calm down-"

"Who the hell are you?!"

Uraraka jumps at the sudden yell by Midoriya. It was a yell of pure unbridled rage and anger. The girl had only seen this side of him a few times before, and in all those instances, it was on behalf of someone hurt or killed by villains before. What caused him to get this angry?

Suddenly, another energy manifested next to Midoriya, one only seen through the Six Eyes. It was of a person exactly identical to the sorcerer in front of them. But there were no stitches. The energy projection of the woman seemed to stare at her head-stitched counterpart, with tears welling up in her eyes.

"She's mourning her dead family and her grandson who has turned into a villain. Even in death, she is in pain because of the consequences of what she has done. She doesn't deserve to be in pain anymore, so tell me!" Midoriya roared out in a fit of rage, with Blackwhip being shot out of his arms in random directions.

Suddenly, Uraraka could see the energy projections of seven more people appearing beside Midoriya, each in different states of disgust, anger, and hate. As they opened their mouths in protest, the green-haired boy yelled out a guttural roar that shook even Uraraka to the core.

"Why the hell are you using the dead body of Nana Shimura?!"


-MUST READ-

Okay, I'm gonna say that this is the second to last chapter of this arc. And since the arc is nearing its end, I want to get a bit experimental.

My idea is this. If I have the energy to actually finish this story, I'm gonna have a small section at the end of the final chapter of an arc where I can create my own anime opening that fits the arc.

The reason I'm announcing it now instead of the next chapter is that I want you, the reader, to say what anime opening song fits this arc in the reviews, so that I can write my interpretation of an anime opening.

For example, my idea for the opening of this arc would be TRASH CANDY, the first opening to the first season of Bungou Stray Dogs (still in the first season but already loving it.)

If you want to suggest the anime song I should use, feel free to mention it in the reviews. Let's get some audience interaction up in here.

Anyways, that's all. Stick around for the final chapter (and pray that I'll actually finish it)!
