It had been 6 months since the Kengan Annihilation Tournament has come to an end and Japan seems to have entered a new era. The economy didn't even resemble what they used to merely half a year ago with business rising and falling for seemingly no reason.

Though only a small percentage knew of why or how this occurred.

Those who did know of the tournament had done their best to ride the waves and get ahead in the transitional period of the new chairman Hideki Nogi. Already new factions and groups were being created as alliances were forming between them. Deals being made and fighters were being shared. Anything that could be done was being done in n effort to find a place in this new odd world the Kengan Assoication found itself in.

There was one final large change that those in the Kengan Association were surprised by but happy to take advantage of.

Line break.

In a deserted construction lot a large group of people had gathered to speculate the Kengan Match. The onlookers are talking amounts themselves when the arrival of one of the fighters gained everyone's attention.

"Look it's Kizoan!" A CEO shouted pointing toward the Brawler of the Sumo Ring who was there with Magatani Juzo and Akiyama Sakura. The sumo was noticeably bigger than he had been half a year ago and the expression on his face made it clear he was hungry for a fight.

Also arriving at that time was their opponent for that day Atami Hisashi along with his nephew . Still Juzo approached him with a smile and friendly shake of the hand. "Atami, it's been a while hasn't it?" Juzo questioned with the monocle man nodding.

"Indeed. Last time we saw each other was the match between Togawa and Soryuin about 4 months ago if I'm remembering correctly." Atami thought before shaking his head. "In any case. It's good to see you again, though don't think that means I plan to let you win today." Muji TV CEO warned getting a smirk in reply from the older CEO. "Speaking of which where is your fighter? I would assume you'd have picked Ohkubo but I don't see him anywhere." The bearded man questioned.

"Oh he won't be coming. He's off on a training trip in the mountains." Atami explained before adjusting his monocle. "Instead I decided to go to a mutual friend of ours for a fighter instead." He said with a smirk at the end. Juzo narrowing his eyes. "Yamashita Trading CO." The Thundering Fist guessed with Atami smirking. "Correct." He confirmed with a nod. "And trust me when I say I spared no expense."

Yamashita Trading CO is a liaison company that rented out fighters to fight for various companies in the Kengan Association. It currently had about 50 fighters on its roster ranging from those with a standard skill level to those that could fight with the absolute best of the association.

'So the question is just who did he hire?' Juzo thought with a narrowed eyes. 'Even among the fighters of Yamashita's roster there aren't many that could give Kizoan a real fight. And if he truly spared no expense like he said. Than that can only mean-.' His thoughts went wild again as more new arrivals appeared. 'It's him.' He thought as he saw none other than Izuku Midoriya approaching.

At first glance the young champion hadn't changed much in the past 6 months merely grew an inch or two and put on a bit more muscle and his hair had grown a bit. But anyone who knew what to look for could tell immediately something had change.

The look in his eyes were now that of a predator, calculating and filled with amusement as his body walked with experience, relaxed yet ready. Along with him were Kazuo Yamashita and Akiyama Kaede. The CEO greeting everyone with a nervous smile, still not used to completely to all the attention yet.

Luckily he spotted Atami and Juzo and his smile became much more relaxed. "Ah Atami! Juzo! It's wonderful to see you guys again." He greeted shaking both their hands while Akiyama sisters spoke with each other and ignoring the comments going on behind him.

"There the legendary Yamashita politeness! He's even greeting his opponent!"

"As expected from the winner of the Annihilation tournament!"

"And he's even brought Izuku Midoriya as the fighter. This is going to be great!"

Ignoring all this Izuku walked up to Shoji and held out his fist. "Hey Shoji, how's it going?" He questioned with the multi-armed boy smirking and giving him a six armed fist pump. "Pretty good. I've been training Kizoan a lot recently and got a few new tricks up my sleeve." Shoji told his friend getting a grin from the green haired boy.

Turning he faced Juzo. "How's Yaoyorouzo been Mr. Magatani?" Izuku questioned with the man letting out a bark of laughter as he crossed his arms. "Momo's doing great. I would have brought her tonight had I known the two of you been here." He told them with the green haired boy turning his attention to his opponent.

"Kizoan." He greeted with Takeru scowling towards him. "Midoriya. I hope you enjoyed that winning streak of yours because I will be the one to put in end to it." The sumo promised and Izuku couldn't stop the bloodthirsty grin coming to his face.

Thanks to his quirk Izuku was able to fight multiple matches a week, sometimes multiple times a day. It's thanks to that Izuku was able to obtain a win streak that's abut to cross over int the 90s.

"Those are some big words you're spewing Takeru Kizoan." Izuku said as Haki sparked around his body slightly. "Let's just hope you can back it up." He taunted getting the sumo to click his teeth as the ref came over. "Excuse me gentlemen." He said holding up the two quirk detectors. "But it's time to get stated." He informed with both men nodding and putting on the devices.

"Good luck Izuku." Kazuo told his fighter as Mezo shot him a thumbs up. "Do your best out there Takeru." Juzo cautioned him with the sumo nodding as the two fighters entering what would act as their ring for the night.

"At the ready!" The referee shouted as he raised his arm and looking towards both men who had their eyes locked on to each other. Without any further ado the referee brought his arm down and with a shout of "FIGHT!" The match had officially begun.

Kizoan rushed forward at speeds far beyond anyone his size had any right, ready to strike the young man with his knee. Izuku side stepped the attack and slammed into the sumo with a shoulder tackle. The force of the impact while not doing any real damage was enough to stop the sumo's assault. Takeru growled and went for a chop with Izuku dodging it and hitting the man wit a flurry of punches.

The attack stopped suddenly however as Izuku jumped back seconds before Kizoan's leg appeared where Izuku's head had been mere seconds ago. Izuku smirked as he saw the brawler of the sumo ring lower his foot with a frustrated look on his face. "Gonna have to be faster than that." Izuku warned him causing the older man to growl before entering a crouching stance and raised his arms to block any on coming blows.

'Waiting me out huh?' Izuku thought seeing the giant of a man hunkering down for defense. 'Not a bad strategy. His speed and strength would annihilate almost anyone dumb enough to get to close.' Izuku thought before he mentally chuckled. 'Unfortunately for him.' Midoriya continued to think. 'I'm not just anyone.' He finished his thought right before shooting  his leg forward and unleashing a plethora of Storm Legs.

For his part Kizoan didn't flatter at the sight merely crossing his arms and preparing the best he could right as they hit him. The sumo defended the best he could blades of compressed air still hit their arms creating gashes all over his body causing blood to flow down his body. Kizoan was breathing heavily as he moved to retaliate only for Izuku to use Shave and appear directly in front of the sumo, catching the man off guard and allowing Izuku to get his next hit in.

"Niko Style, Adamantine Kata: Iron Hammer" Izuku declared his right arm growing heavy as it slammed into the sumo, knocking air out of him as the sound of snapping bones entered everyone's ears before KIozan was launched several meters back.

Niko Style. Adamantine Kata: Iron Hammer- The combination of the Six Power's Iron Body and Nico Style' Adamantine Kata: Iron Breaker. A striking technique that enhances the  strength and durably  of the hands and feet to its maximum by tensing and tightening the muscles to inhuman levels. However currently if Izuku is not already in motion when the technique is used then movement of the limb is impossible.

Izuku preformed another Shave to appear in front of Kizoan who barely got to his feet. "Now Raptor Claws version 2." Izuku announced as he spread his fingers apart before bringing them down using the Heavy Whip technique. Unlike before though this time Izuku also added the Niko Style, Adamantine Kata: Iron Fingers, tightening the muscles in joints in the boy's fingers to add on even more power.

The result of this was carving new wounds into Kizoan while deepening the ones he already had. "Damn it!' The sumo roared in his mind as his vision already started to go dark as he raised his hand. "I'm not going down without getting at least one-!' His thoughts were stopped dead as he saw Izuku place both fist on the sumo's torso. The two men briefly made eye contact until Izuku spoke. "Six King Guns!"

And that's when Kizoan's world went dark.

The spectators watched as the bawler of the sumo ring coughed up globs of blood, his eyes whitened out before collapsing backwards onto the ground where he said with a groan. The referee went over to check on the condition of the fighter and, once he confirmed that the man was fully unconscious raised his arm to finalize the match.

"MATCH OVER! WINNER IZUKU MIDORIYA!"

The call was followed by the standard cheers of the crowd and those that profited by betting on the winner while those that lost grumbled over their loss. Juzo sighed as he watched medics emerge from the crowd and begin to examine the unconscious sumo.

This was one of the changes Nogi had installed once he became the chairman. Have medics on sight to care for and look after a fighter the match. Apparently there were 2 reasons for this change. The first was that fighters were a vital recourse when it came to the Kengan matches and losing such something so important due to something like lack of medical attention is nothing short of asinine.

As for the second reason while there were plenty of rumors circulating around the assoicasotn only a very select few knew the exact reason for it, and those that did were keeping their mouths weren't talking.

Back to Juzo the man sighed as he faced Atami. "Well congratulations on your victory Hisashi." He told the monocled man before looking around. "I'm sure this place will be quite profitable to you." The Muji TV CEO merely smiled as he shook the man's hand. "Thank you for the kind words Magatani. Kiozan fought as spectacularly as always." He told the man who gave a grunt and a nod before leaving with Sakura to go check on his fighter.

Seeing the man depart Atami turned to see Izuku  talking with his company along with Mezo as they were heading towards him. "A splendid match young Midoriya, I thank you for your hard work." The older man said nodding his head in thanks as Izuku just smirked and nodded back.

"Don't mention it Mr.Atami, Kiozan's been on my list for a while now. I wasn't going to pass this opportunity up." The green haired teen told the man before he titled his head. "I am a little confused on while Ohkubo wasn't here. That guy loves fighting as much as any of us. I can't image he skip out on this." Izuku voiced his confusion with the older man giving a small amused smirk.

"Ohkubo's been will to put it bluntly a little obsessed lately. For the last 2 months are so he's been almost sorely focused on unlocking his Haki, much like many others in the Kengan association has been." He explained to the man blinked at the news before grimacing.

With the existence of Haki becoming known through out the association, a lot of fighters have been hell bent on unlocking it leading to many severe if not crippling injuries. There have been some that have went to those that actually did unlock it, but from what Izuku's heard there haven't been any successes yet.

Ohkubo admittedly did have better chances than most, being friends with many of the Haki users, he had a wealth of information to pull from so he could avoid the worst of the mistakes. But still Ohkubo was over enthusiastic at times which could lead him to making more than a few stupid mistakes. 'Don't do anything stupid Ohkubo.' Izuku thought with worry for his friend.

It must have shown on his face because Atami placed a comforting hand on the teen's shoulder. "You needn't worry. Despite how he acts Ohkubo knows his limits, he won't do something that could stop him from doing the thing he loves." The business man vowed with Izuku nodding trusting the man's words.

Checking the time Izuku's eyes widened. "Shit I got to go." He told his group. "Are you sure Midoriya? There are still some matches left tonight." Kazuo reminded the teen who frowned but nodded. "Yeah old man Erioh wants me and Karla to do him a favor tomorrow since it's our day off school." He explained.

"Well in that case leaving now would be for the best." Akiyama agreed checking her watch. "Go on ahead Izuku, we'll talk to you soon." Yamashita promised as Mezo and Izuku fist pumped one final time before the green haired teen left for home.

Line Break.

BANG

BANG

BANG

BANG

BANG

The sound echoed around the old abandoned shipyard as the sun started to rise. Those that heard it paid it no mind having grown accustomed to it over the past 3 months. The source was none other than Izuku who wanted to get a bit of training in before he and Karla went to help Erioh decided to come here and preform the training exercise he did every day.

Battleship Bags.

Thanks to the shipyard being owned by the Kure family for less than shall we say legitimate means Izuku was free to use the ships here. Much like Garp and Kuzan there were two rules for Battleship Bags.. No quirks no Haki this training was purely for increasing his physical strength and it's a training method Izuku never thought he'd be able to try.

Izuku had actually grown much stronger in these last 6 months, advancing both the styles he already knew as well as the ones he was creating. Also he started learning the basics of both the Formless style and the Fallen Demon. Agito helpfully explained the basics to him but made it clear that it was best if he figured it out for himself.

And after reading exactly what Formless was and could do and with plans already running though his head Izuku promised the 5th fang he would do just that.

As for Fallen Demon  he reluctantly asked Setsuna who was torn between helping his precious Izuku and loathing from helping spread Niko Tokita's teachings. Setsuna's love won out in the end though and the older teen explained what he knew of the technique including both the benefits and drawbacks. There was one more thing that Izuku requested Setsuna help him with and this time the older teen was elated to help Izuku with.

Before leaving however Setsuna promised to drop in soon and 'test' on how well Izuku's doing with what he told the green haired teen and offer 'special training' should he feel Izuku need it.

That was about 5 months ago and luckily Izuku hadn't seen him since.

Between all the training, school, his friends, family, Kengan matches and him recently starting doing Karla Izuku's schedule had been completely stuffed.

Izuku's phone going off wiped his mind clear of thoughts and after checking it saw he needed to go. So with a quick use of the Warp-Warp Fruit teleported home and after a quick shower and breakfast left his and Inko's home and headed into the Kure village.

An outsider would find the village strange, despite being killed to the brim with assassins, for the most part everyone was quite friendly and welcoming to the green haired family. There were some exceptions to this, a few who didn't trust outsiders as a rule in general, others who just didn't like people in general, but like in the rest of the society they didn't really cause any trouble.

There was one exception to this rule and even with his Haki fully activated Izuku still felt the need the need to keep his guard up at all times. Luckily for him that day someone was there to quell those fears. "You don't need to worry about Raian today, he's out on a job." Turning his head he saw Fusui Kure and her boyfriend, a man who goes by Dabi.

Dabi is a reasonably tall, pale young man of slim shape but somewhat muscular build, described as in his early twenties. He has black hair that spikes upward around his head, hanging low over his eyes, which are thin, turquoise, and heavily lidded. Dabi's hair was dyed black before revealing his true identity.

His most striking features are undoubtedly the patches of gnarled, wrinkled, purple skin that cover much of his lower face and neck, all the way down past his collarbone, below his eyes, around his torso, and on his arms and legs. These appear to be attached to the rest of his skin by multiple crude surgical staples or hoop piercings.

He has several silver cartilage piercings in both ears and a triple nostril piercing on the right side of his nose. Upon closer inspection, he also lacks earlobes on both sides of his ears. In his first appearance, he wears a dark blue jacket with a high, ripped collar, matching pants cut off above his ankles, and a pair of dark dress shoes on his feet. He also has a plain pale gray, scoop-neck shirt, below which a gray belt with a circular pattern wraps around his waist, a leather satchel attached at the back.

"Yeah we saw him a few other guys heading for one of the copters this morning." Dabi confirmed getting a sigh of relief from Izuku. Every day, every damn day since they got there Izuku's had to fight Raian just to get him to leave him alone. It's not that Izuku was against fighting the man everyday, it helped both of  them get stronger and really helped Raian improve his Haki. The problem was that the man seemed to want to fight at the most inconvenient times.

"Yeah now you have no reason to keep that little lady of yours waiting." Dabi smirked with Izuku's eyes twitching and Fusui letting out a giggle before Izuku grew an irritated smirk. "Oh and just where are you and your lady friend going may I ask?"  He countered with Dabi gaining a look of a deer in the headlights as Fusui giggling increased and was about to say something when Dabi quickly covered her motuh.

"Oh look at the time we really must be going, see you later kid!" Dabi was quick to steer her away with the woman giving a friendly wave as the left leaving Izuku headed for Erioh's home which he was able to reach with no problem.

"Izuku!" Karla shouted out a greeting as rushed into his arms as Izuku smiled and gave the girl a kiss on the cheek. "Hey there Karla, I didn't keep you waiting did I?" He greeted her with Karla shaking her head. "I just got here myself Izu." She reassured him before pulling his arm inside the manner. "Now let's go see what grandfather wants." She said as the two walked through the manner until they reached the meeting room.

Knocking on the door and getting permission to enter the two opened the door and saw Erioh there waiting for them. "Ah Karla glad to see you and you brought Midoriya too." He greeted them. "Oh course grandfather you requested it after all." She said as the two took a seat. "Now what errand do you need us to do?" She asked the elder reached into his robes and brought out two photos before laying the first one down.

It showed an elderly looking man, with wrinkles on the face and graying hair. he wore a kuro montsuki, the most formal kimono of men, consisting of a black haori, dark gray Hakama, white Tabi, and sandals. As the two teens examined the photo Erioh started to explain.

"This is an old friend of mine and leader of Shie Hassaikai, one of the last surviving yakuza groups." Erioh explained. "Yakuza? Thought the last of those guys died off a while ago?" Izuku questioned with Erioh humming. "For the most part you're correct but those with deep enough ties in the underworld managed to survive. The Shie Hassaikai being one of them." The elder explained with Karla tilting her head.

"So do they know about the Kengan matches?" Karla wondered with Erioh confirming it with a nod. "Yes and they've actually hired us many times to compete in those matches. It's thanks to the Kengan matches that they've survived as well as they have." Erioh explained before frowning. "But my friend hasn't made contact with me for quite a while and I'm starting to grow concern. Both for him and one other." Erioh muttered as he placed down the second photo allowing the teens to see it.

"She..she looks so sad." Karla muttered with a frown examining the photo. "She's wearing rags and those bandages around her arms and legs." Karla said growing more and more concerned with the more she saw. Izuku scowled seeing such a look on a child's face. "Who is she?" He questioned with the Erioh matching the boy's frown with his own.

"This is Eri, my old friend's granddaughter who's been in his custody lately." The patriarch of the Kure clan explained. "Do you know what happened to her parents?" Izuku asked with Erioh sighing. "Not entirely apparently her quirk activated and caused her father to vanish, or at least that's apparently what her mother said as she dropped Eri off at grandfather. The mother hasn't been heard from since." The old man explained before looking down at the photo. "This photo was taken about 2 weeks ago." Erioh finished as they all looked down at the two photos.

"So basically you want us to make sure everything is alright with your old friend and little Eri?" Karla questioned before grinning and giving a thumbs up. "You can count on us grandfather!" She promised with Erioh giving a happy smile. "Oh Karla I knew I could count on you!" He cried on the verge of tears.

Izuku meanwhile was confused. "Why us though? Don't get it wrong I'm more than happy to help but surly there people better suited for this than us for this job." Izuku voiced his only question.

"A fair question but hosntely all it boils down to is that they're either already out on other missions or due to circumstances it would be determent for them to appear in the public eye. I believe you two would be best suited to handle this situation." Erioh gave his reasons which settled Izuku's confusion. "We take care of it gramps." He promised the elder as he and Karla stood to leave as Erioh gave them both a grateful smile.

"I'm counting it."

Line break.

"Alright it this should be it." Karla said as she looked up from the map they had been given towards the compound they had arrived at. "Well it looks like the home of a yakuza boss." Izuku observed looking over the large gates in front of the complex. "Well at least we know little Eri isn't out in the cold." Karla said going up to the audio doorbell and pressed the button.

A few seconds passed and a voice entered. "Who are you and what do you want?" Came the bored voice from the other side. "Hello, sorry to bother you but me and my boyfriend are here other see your boss." She informed getting a snort from the other side. "Yeah real funny kid, now get lost before we hurt you and your boyfriend." The voice threatened before they caught the connection.

Karla frowned and put her hands on her hips. "Well that was rude." She muttered with Izuku rising an eyebrow at her. "To be fair you didn't exactly explain anything about being part of the Kure or your grandfather wanting to check on his old friend and his granddaughter." Izuku spoke in defense of the guard. Karla pouted at this and pointed at Izuku.

"Listen mister rule number 1 of being a boyfriend is to never correct the girlfriend, got it?!" She questioned with Izuku snorting. "I'll keep that in mind." He muttered before gesturing to the doorbell. "Now let's try this again." He said once more pressing the button. A few seconds later the voice answered again this time sounding much more annoyed.

"You brats again?! I thought I told you to scram!" He questioned annoyed with Izuku's teeth clicking in annoyance as Karla tried again. "Sorry but my grandfather sent us here. See we're part of the Kure family and-!" "Listen here girly, no one here cares about you, your old fart of a grandfather or your puree family or whatever the fuck it's called." The guard interpreted with both Izuku and Karla sharing suspicious looks.

If this Yakuza boss was as close to the Kure family as Erioh said he was there was no way he would position guards at the gate who hadn't at least have heard of the family. The guard was still ranting when Izuku having had enough interrupted him.

"We're here to make sure the boss of the Shie Hassaikai, a personal friend of the patriarch of the Kure family and his granddaughter Eri are safe and sound." Izuku told the guard. "So unless you want us to tell your boss that you stopped us from doing that then you'll let us in to see them." Izuku threatened feeling like he's about to lose the last of his patience.

There was no immediate reply but both Izuku and Karla could hear frantic whispering from the other side. The response came after a few more seconds and both teens could easily smell the bullshit. "T-T-The boss is taking a nap right now, you know how the elderly need their sleep!" Came the nervous reply with an incredibly fake laugh.

Both Karla and Izuku were scowling in suspicion as Izuku curled his hand into a fist and Karla reached her hand into her pocket and gripped the butterfly knife she was carrying, "And Eri?" Izuku asked steel in his voice that sent shivers up the spine of the guard. "She's out on a daddy-daughter day with her father!" The guard practically squealed in panic.

The two teens were done with the idiot at this point and walked a few meters away. "Alright then we tried to do this the peaceful way, now we do it the Kure way." Karla muttered with Izuku using the Glare-Glare Fruit to see exactly what was going on inside the compound.

It took Izuku 3 seconds to find Eri and a further 5 to recover from wage ge saw. When he did Izuku was trembling before gripping his arm to calm himself down. "Izuku?" Karla asked worried with Izuku reaching out his arm for Karla to grab onto. Once she did Izuku warped them to where he had found the girl.

It was a make shift operating room Karla was able to observe before she looked on to what caused Izuku's anger. The little girl they had come here to visit strapped to an operating tears flowing down her cheeks were staring at them in shock along with the man holding the scalpel.

He's a pale young man of a narrow build with short, shaggy, auburn hair parted to the right. His eyes are thin, irises small and gold, with relatively long lower eyelashes and small eyebrows. He has three piercings in his left ear. He had his mouth covered by a plague doctor mask

He wore a black dress shirt with matching dress pants, a pale gray tie around his neck, a belt with a long, thin buckle around his waist, and three beaded lobe piercings in his left ear. Over this, he wears a dark olive-green bomber jacket with a thick purple fur collar and white lace-up sneakers with tan soles and no socks.

"Who are-?" He started to question only for Izuku's Haki covered fist to slam into the man's face shattering the mask instantly and launching the man with such force that it launched the man through several walls while the entire compound as well as surrounding buildings shook.

Eri was staring in opened mouth disbelief at what happened until Karla came up to her and gently started removing medical equipment. "It's alright sweetie." The Kure told her with a gentle smile. "Now where's your grandfather?" She asked with Eri snapping out of her trance and looked at her questionably.

"Grandpa?" She asked hesitantly with Karla nodding. "Yeah your grandpa, do you know where he is?" Karla questioned with Eri flinching "H-He's asleep." Eri answered. "Chisaki did something to him and now he won't wake up." She explained with Karla seeing Izuku stand still for a second before vanishing.

Karla just continued to smile as she picked up medical bandages and started wrapping them around the girl's wrist and legs. "Well don't worry about that. Me and Izuku are gonna make sure you're both safe." She promised and as if to prove her point Izuku reappeared with the old boss from the picture lying in a medical bed. "See?" Karla grinned as she gestured to the pair. "Now let's all get out of here." She invited holding out her hand for the girl to take it.

The girl still scared looked towards the recently made hole where the sounds of voices and footsteps were quickly approaching. "But if I leave, Chisaki will-." She tired to argue but Izuku didn't even let her finish. "Chisaki will get his ass handed to him if he tries anything." Izuku told her before crouching down in front of her.

"Listen kid we're not leaving without you, it's up to you if you want to come peacefully or struggling." Izuku informed her before holding out his hand. "So what do you say Eri? Let's get you two out of here." The girl stared at the two hands in front of her then at the hole in the room one final time before slowly ever so hesitantly put her tiny hands into the hands of the two strangers in front of her.

Smirking victoriously Izuku placed his free hand on the bed of the old yakuza boss and warped them out the building and back to the Kure village.

Line break.

Izuku, Karla and Eri were silent as they waited inside the Kure family meeting room as they waited for Erioh and Dr. Hanafusa. The two had gone to move Eri's grandfather to the hospital that was located in the Kure village while the kids went to the meeting hall.

Though Hanafusa made it clear he wanted to examine Eri later on when he was sure the older man was stable and not in any danger.

Currently the little girl was curled into a ball and laying her head on Izuku's leg as he rubbed her back comfortingly. "Don't worry Dr. Hanafusa might be a little out there but he's one of the best doctors there is. I'm sure he'll figure out what's wrong with your grandfather and find a way to fix it." Karla said with a gentle smile with Eri shrinking even more into herself

"But if Chisaki comes after me-." She started to say with Izuku patting her head. "Then that'll be the last mistake he ever makes." Izuku reassured the girl. "This is one of the most secure places in Japan. There's no way he'll ever get to you again." Izuku promised the girl with the tiny girl hesitantly looking up as hope slowly started to enter her eyes.

"Well said boy." A voice from behind the door before it opened with Erioh walking in along with Yuma Kure, a young man in his twenties who's known best by the clan for his hacking skills. Karla stood to greet the elder. "Grandfather, what's the condition on Eri's grandfather?" She questioned walking over to him as the man sighed while looking down.

"As for as Dr. Hanafusa can tell he's in a quirk induced coma." The patriarch revealed grimly. "And how did Hanafusa figure that out?" Izuku questioned with Erioh growling. "By observing that his organs were all over the place." Erioh getting startled looks from the teens causing him to continue.

"His organs were rearranged in such a way that kept him alive but would also keep him unconscious." The elder explained it in the best way he could unnerving the two even more. "Just what kind of quirk is capable of that?" Karla had to ask which caused her grandfather to sigh and look towards Eri.

"That's what I was hoping Eri could tell us, with Izuku's assistance of course." Erioh proposed with Izuku looking down at the girl who was looking back in timid confusion. "Eri I can show the memories of people to others. If you allow it I can show the some of your memories to Erioh which would help us find a way to help your grandfather. So will you let show others your memories?" He questioned with the girl's eyes darting back and forth.

"Will it hurt?" She finally asked with Izuku smiling reassuringly. "You won't feel a thing." He promised as he looked Eri straight in the eyes and after seeing no signs of deceit eventually gave a nod.

Slowly Izuku slowly touched the girls head as he activated the powers of the Memo-Memo Fruit to search for anything that might help. "Eri had been with her grandfather for about 2 years now. That's about how far back you need to start your search so bring out anything that involves him." Erioh ordered. "Yeah and that Chisaki guy too." Karla added on causing Eri to gasp and the 3 men in the room to glance at her in confusion.

"Chisaki has to be the guy who was cutting Eri open right? I want to know exactly what that bastard has done to her." Karla demanded with Erioh snarling and gripping his cane so hard it nearly broke before rounding on Yuma. "I want to know everything there is to know about that little prick! Down to the coffee he drinks each morning, got it?!" He demanded with Yuma already typing away on his computer.

"Yes Grandfather!"

Turning back to the kids he gestured to the lone male. "Midoriya if you please." He requested as Izuku started pulling out a long strip of film real. Like he promised Eri didn't feel a thing but by the way she was shaking made it clear she fear what was to come and when it was done Izuku, Karla and Erioh were all very concerned about what they were about to see.

Only for what was shown to be worse than anything they had imagined.

A younger Eri being picked up by a kind looking man only for the girl's horn to start glowing before it covered the man's body. Eri watched in horror as the man began to shrink and wither away to nothingness.

A hysterical looking woman that resembled Eri screaming at the terrified looking girl who tired to explain only for the woman to roughly grab the girl's wrist and start pulling her somewhere all the while still screaming at her.

Eri was sitting in a nice looking office her head down in sadness as arguing could be heard in the background. What was being said couldn't be heard it was clear that the mother was furious, sounding near insanity while the other voice an, older sounding man sounding like he was pleading. The woman spoke again before the sounds of fading footsteps reached the girl's ears.

Eri along with her grandfather walking through the compound before they arrived at a new room with the old man opening the door showing it to be a simple bedroom. Eri looked around curiously as the old man informed her that this would be her new room.

Someone new calling out to her grandfather caused them to turn to and see the man Izuku punched approaching them.

"That's the guy who was cutting up poor Eri grandfather." Karla informed the elder with a hiss, venom dripping from her tone as the man's face darkened. The man said nothing put there was now a noticeable pressure around him as they continued to watch.

The man who the boss introduced as Kai Chisaki gave Eri a blank look as the boss identified Eri as his granddaughter. Giving nothing but a nod before leading the older man away for some business as Eri was left in the care of the maids.

Eri was then seen with Chisaki with the girl holding a tank which held a lizard with its tail removed. The girl gave the man a nervous and uncertain look who only looked back both impatiently and expectedly. Looking back to the tank, the girl's horn started glowing again and before everyone's eyes the tail slowly started to regrow.

Eri managed to cut off her power and look back to towards Chisaki only to freeze at the hungry and maniacal look in now in his eyes.

The next memory looked to come a few months later when Chisaki informed everyone that the boss was sick and he would be leading in charge for the time being. The young man than lead Eri down a hidden flight of stairs to an underground passage way which eventually lead to an operating room.

The three watchers stopped for just a moment as they prepared for what they were about to see. "Grandfather if you want Izuku and I can watch on our own, you don't have to see this" Karla told her grandfather. Despite arguably still being the strongest in the clan he was still in his 90s and Karla was worried for his heart.

The man gave his granddaughter a glance. "Thank you for your concern Karla, but I assure you I must see this." He spoke with resolve before gripping his fist as the pressure was slowly starting to build. "After all I need to know exactly how much pain I need to inflect on this little shit before I allow him to die."

Eri was placed in the operating chair and strapped down. The girl was obviously terrified but before she could get a word out Chisaki took a scalpel and started carving into the girl. The girl cried out in pain and started thrashing but the man continued his work slicing into her arms and legs before collecting the blood as well as bone marrow until the girl was on the verge of unconsciousness

The man then took off his glove placed his and on Eri's head and then everything went black.

CRACK

The entire compound was shaking violently as Izuku and Erioh's Conqueror's Haki burst through. Yuma having fled the room at the first sign of trouble while Karla was to furious to even properly register it. "That wretched little-!" Erioh snarled, entering his removal state by instinct as more and more damage was done.

Izuku himself was gripping the memories so tightly it threatened to rip and most likely would have done so if a tiny whimpering hadn't reached his ears. That small sound manged to knock enough sense back into to look down and see a terrified Eri shaking.

Alarmed Izuku was quick to kill his Haki. "Gramps!" He shouted causing the old man to snap his attention over to him and Eri and upon geeing the terrified young grandchild of his old friend managed to reel in his anger. "I-I'm sorry little one, I shouldn't have lost my control like that." Erioh apologized to the girl as Karla pulled her into a comforting hug.

"Let's..let's just finish this. We don't have much more left" Izuku said as they viewed the final bits.

The darkness lasted several seconds before it retuned with Eri looking perfectly fine . Chisaki with his spoils in hand tuned to leave while informing a guard to take the girl to her new room. The room turned out to be a dark room with a bed and a few toys scattered around . The guard without a word dropped her on the ground and left without a word leaving Eri alone in the dark.

All little Eri could do was go climb onto the bed, curl up in a ball and whimper helplessly in the dark,

Izuku sighed as he looked through the memories. "That was from a few months ago and it looks like it's just a repeat of backs and fourths between the two rooms." Izuku explained. "I see, Yuma what did you find?" Erioh questioned with the man reentering the room.

"Bad news grandfather. These guys have some serious connections especially with the HPSC." Yuma revealed with the jaws of the other 3 dropping at the news. "The HPSC?! What do they want with this guy?!" Karla demanded with Yuma groaning. "Not sure exactly but from their messages and phone calls several key words kept coming up. Trigger and quirk eraser bullets being the most frequent." The man explained with Erioh nodding. "And how many of our family is here currently or coming back from jobs.

Yuna brought out his phone and quickly strolled through it. "Looks like we've got a good bit of the family here at the moment, with a large chuck still on the job or returning from one." He explained with Erioh grunting.

"Recall everyone you can, tell them it's top priority." He ordered as the elder began to leave the room.

"Because as of this moment the Kure family is at war!"

Line break.

"This is an unprecedented failure, how could you allow such a thing to happen?"

Chisaki scowled as he listened to the HPSC president tear into him for allowing Eri to be taken His head in a brace with several teeth missing from the punch he received from the intruder.

The man honestly didn't known what happened one moment he was extracting from the little brat the next thing he knew two teens just popped into the room with the larger one sending him hurtling through several walls. He had several fractures some internal damage but it was fixable enough thanks to his quirk. His head and face on the other hand would have to be healed the standard way.

You can't fix your head if you blow it to pieces after all.

"We had no way of knowing they were capable of this, warping quirks are very rare these days." The villain felt the need to remind the woman who let out a sound of reluctant agreement. "Be that as it may the fact that one of them was a Kure should have immediately put you on guard. Do you know what that family is capable of?" The woman demanded again as the man began to ground his teeth.

Of course he knew how dangerous the Kure family was. The boss had told him on multiple occasions just what that family was capable of both with and without quirks and that wronging them was basically signing your own death warrant. He didn't know how the guard who talked to them didn't know about them but it was an oversight both he and the guard paid dearly for.

The woman on the other end of the line let out a frustrated sigh. "That girl and quirk eraser bullets are the linch pins of the HPSC future operations and the key to allowing your little street gang to rise back into relevance." The woman spoke bluntly causing Chisaki to boil in rage."THE YAKUZA IS-!" "Irrelevant. Obsolete. Incompetent to the point you had no choice but to make a deal with us remember." The president's cold and unfeeling words washed over the man who could do nothing but lower his head in shame and grip his fist in shame and fury.

"We will get the girl back. But we are doing it our way. Gather those who you deemed necessary and beneficial to the operation along with a few rounds of Trigger in case it's needed. We'll be sending you along with soldiers and heroes loyal to the HPSC to assist you in retrieving the girl. Hawks will be among them and will be the one in charge during this operation." The woman instructed with Chisaki nearly spitting out his "Yes."

"Once the girl is retrieved she will be brought to a secure facility under the control of the HPSC, you will continue operations there from now on." The president informed the young head who opened his mouth to absolutely deny the ludicrous demand when the president spoke again.

"This is not noticeable. You need us to retrieve the girl but we don't need you to carry out the experiments. We have enough healing quirks here to ensure that while not as quickly we can still create the bullets without you. Do we understand each other?"

Kai Chisaki had to use every ounce of his will power to not destroy the phone then and there. 'It's all for the boss, you're doing it for him.' He mentally reminded himself before finally gaining the strength to speak again. "Yes." He finally agreed getting a satisfied grunt from the woman.

"You have 3 hours to prepare." Were her last words before the line went dead as the man gently lowered the phone and pocketed it. "Chronos." He called out emotionless not even turning to the other man in the room.

He has fair skin, thin, dark eyes, pointed eyebrows, and pale chin-length hair that forms arrow-shaped "clock needles" as a result of his quirk. He wears a plague mask, black with gold trim, and circular glasses over his eyes. He can also be distinguished from them by his long white raincoat with the hood up.

This was Hari Kurono, Chisaki's right hand man who stood attention awaiting orders. "Go gather the eight bullets along with Mimic and as much Trigger as you can. We've got a busy night ahead of us." He ordered getting a nod from the cold hearted man who turned to leave Chisaki spoke again. "On second thought leave the Trigger behind. Grab the new stuff instead." He corrected. Kurono allowed himself a single blink to show his surprise before his face became passive again.

"What about deleter rounds?" He questioned his boss with the man scowling. "Not worth bringing them. The Kure are masters of assassination who don't need their quirks to do their job," Chisaki explained before scowling. "Besides I don't want to think about what would happened if they managed to get their hands on those bullets." Chisaki continued on shuddering at the mere idea.

Giving a nod of understanding the man left the room leaving the young head alone with his thoughts.

On the other side of the phone. The president let out an annoyed sigh. "That brat is growing to big for his station. The time is soon approaching for us cut ties with those thugs." She muttered to herself before turning to one of her aids. "I want our best agents and around a dozen heroes ready to deploy in 3 hours. Who those heroes are doesn't matter as long as they answer to us, but Hawks must be part of this operation understand?" She questioned with the aids nodding.

"Doesn't this seem a bit extreme ma'am? It's just one family" One of the newer aids questioned with the woman sighing in annoyance at their naivety. "The Kure family is dangerous rookie. To the point that they've taken out several prominent heroes like it was nothing. Not to mention who else is living with them." She muttered

As the president of the HPSC she's privy to a lot of things and underground fighting rings such as the Kengan Association is one thing. This naturally means she's aware that a young man had recently taken the crown and was the current king of the kengan matches. That same young man who in fact is currently living with the Kure family and was the one who took the girl after assaulting Chisaki.

Yes she knew who Izuku Midoriya was and had heard he had plans on trying to become a hero. If she had been a younger less experienced woman then she might have tried to blackmail him into assisting in getting the girl back but she knew better.

First there was no way she was going to risk someone as strong as he was from not becoming a hero, The woman had seen his abitlsies and the boy wasn't even in his prime yet. There was no way she was gonna risk someone who could very well be the next All Might on something like this.

She also had no idea how deep his wanting to be a hero was, for all she knew it could just be a passing thing and the boy was more then happy to stay a fighter in the Kengan association. There's also the fact that he could be like Mirko and All Might not caring what happens to him as long as he did what he thought was right.

The fact that he had been seen multiple times with the rabbit hero these past few months didn't hurt the theory either.

There was also no way she was going to go to public with this. There was a reason she wanted to keep this close to her chest. The full extent to his powers were unknown to her as were many of the Kure family's quirks and other skill sets. "And should someone like Crust, Mirko, Ryukyu or god forbid All Might find out exactly what had happened to her and their involvement in such a thing there would be no where they could hide.

Honestly a part of her just wanted to cut her losses and move on but the prospect of being able to not only take away villain's powers but use that threat as a way to reduce crime was to tempting to pass up. So all she could is hope for the best.

As she and her aids were walking away she failed to notice a man around the corner with the all to familiar dark scelera eyes. This was Kusuo Kure, a quirk analyst who thanks to his quirk Afterthought allowed him to move around generally noticed.

Kusuo had heard the entire exchange from the phone call to the conversion and with a frown took out his phone. A few rings later and it went to voice mail. The man scowled in annoyance before trying again and this time the other side picked up. "Hello Hollis yes it's me. I need to speak with grandfather but he's not answering." He told the older man who spoke for several seconds.

"Yes II'm aware of that." He nodded. "In fact I was calling on that very subject along with some news I think you'd be very interested to hear."

Line break.

Erioh watched as more and more of his family both by blood and married in entered the room with looks of confusion, concern and resolve on their faces. It wasn't surprising since the patriarch of the clan had declared war but it still saddened a tad that he was dragging his family into his problems.

Still it couldn't be helped especially after hearing from Hollis what Kuso managed to learn. His old friend and his granddaughter were suffering some gutter trash and had the boy been alone then a small team would have been enough but after learning that the HPSC was indeed backing as well as sending agents and heroes which included Hawks, Erioh knew he needed all the help he could get.

And so while Kusuo tried to get any more information he could the rest of the family would be planning how to respond.

"Everyone's here grandfather and the monitor is ready to go." Hollis said besdies him seeing the last of the family trickle in as a couple of his family finished setting up a large tv monitor and handing him the remote. Erioh nodded looking over the entire room, ending in the corner where Karla, Raian and Izuku stood. Raian's face was that of demonic glee, no doubt the boy had been salivating at the mere thought of fighting and killing someone like Hawks and had been impatiently waiting for the meeting to start since he retuned a couple of hours ago.

Karla on the other hand had a look of complete determination and disgust her hands in her pocket no doubt fingering the knife she kept there. Many people would forget that despite the way she acts she was still a Kure, with her being in place to become matriarch of the clan when the time is right. If not for the circumstances Erioh perhaps would feel a bit of pity for anyone foolish enough to get in her way.

Finally there was her boyfriend Izuku and the look on the boy's face was while just as impatient as Raian was also the exact opposite. A roaring inferno that was biting and clawing to get out, one that was belonged to a demon howling for revenge. Erioh wasn't sure if the boy had it in him to take a life, but the old ma was sure that wouldn't be a problem either way.

With his thoughts done Erioh began to address his family. "Thank you all for coming and I'm sorry for such short notice but I'm afraid soon the Kure family will be coming into conflict with both The Shie Hassaikai, a yakuza group that once lead by my old until he was stabbed in the back by his own adoptive son who proceed to start harvesting the blood and bone marrow of my fiend's own granddaughter!" Erioh growled with Haki once more spilling off him.

Though no one in the room seemed to notice as they were also consumed with disbelief and outrage. Despite being assassins it was a just a job, a side bit more many of them and most were perfectly pleasant people. And even those who's hearts were more closed off still felt fury towards the little shit for the act of betrayal.

"Where are your friend and his grand daughter now?" Fusui questioned while raising her hand worry in her tone while besdies her Dabi sat, his face emotionless but smoke was beginning to rise from his arm. "They are both here in the village." Erioh was quick to reassure her. "My friend is comatose but stable and resting in the hospital under heavy guard. While his granddaughter, Eri is with Yakusha, her husband Hanjiro, a few other guards as well as being looked after by Inko Midoriya." Erioh stated with Izuku and Karla nodding showing that their parents were in fact with the girl.

"With that the little shit who's behind this won't give up little Eri without a fight and is just about to begin making his way here to try and get hr back." Erioh said checking the time and seeing the 3 hours the president had given Chisaki were nearly over. This news caused conversations to break out. Some scoffing at the mere idea at an invasion, others eager at the chance to get their hands on scum like Chisaki while more still were discussing possible battle strategies.

"Excuse me grandfather." Horio said raising his hand and gaining everyone's attention. "But what do we know about the enemy?" The man asked with everyone quieting down wanting as much information as possible. "Plenty." Erioh promised as he pressed a button on the remote causing the monitor to come to life as Chisaki's face appeared on it.

"This is Kai Chisaki, the so called head of the Shie Hassaikai and the one responsible for all this." Erioh growled with many others scowling at the man. "He was adopted by my friend when he was just a boy and worked his way up through the ranks. While smart he's a known germaphobe and outside his quirk he has no real skills we need to be weary of." Erioh told everyone before his eyes narrowed into slits.

"His quirk however is very dangerous. Called Overhaul it gives the boy the ability to disassemble and then reassemble matter with their bare hands." Erioh informed with many letting out startled yaps. 'So that's how he did it.' Izuku thought with a scowl as he recalled viewing Eri's memories going dark for a moment before returning. 'That bastard.' Izuku thought clenching his fist tightly before feeling a nudge from Karla. "Izuku." she called pointing over to Erioh who was looking towards him with a similar look, no doubt having come to the same conclusion.

"Midoriya Overhaul is a dangerous quirk, but only if it can connect. Now I'm not sure if the boy has Haki or not but even if he does I believe-." The old man stopped talking when the younger man nodded showing he understood what the elder was saying. "I'll get it done." Izuku promised with a wild look now appearing in his eyes.

Satisfied Erioh pressed the button and moved on to the next image showing Kurono. "Next up is Hari Kurono, Chisaki's right hand man. Proficient with a gun his quirk Chronostasis could provide difficult to handle. It allows him to slow down the movements of anything he hits with his clock hand-like hair. The minute hand slows a target's movements for one minute, and the hour hand slows a target's movements for one hour. Hari can extend his hair, but only if he is not moving."

More mutterings broke out before one of Erioh's nieces spoke up. "So we need to either keep our distance or strike at him in a group." She theorized with Erioh nodding. "Indeed, granted it's almost certain he won't be fighting alone but with this being our home terrain and there being so many of us I'm sure we can overwhelm him." Erioh assured as he moved on to the next slide.

Many blinked however at what they saw and Raian burst out laughing. On the screen was a small black cloak with a short leg and arm-like protrusions and a white plague mask that was sewn over where his face should be. "This is Joi Irinaka, the current general manager. On the screen you can see his quirk Mimic on full effect.

"It enables the man to merge his body and mind into an object, granting him full control over the object as if it were his own body. Joi can only use this power on objects the size of a refrigerator or smaller." The man explained with the clan nodding in understanding. To the untrained that didn't seem like much a threat but what people tended to forget was that despite being in a world of superpowers small things like knives and guns could still easily kill a man.

Erioh moved to the next image where eight men appeared on screen. "Aside from them there is a group called the Eight Bullets that will most likely be brought along." Erioh continued on as the projection moved to the first image.

He is a slim man with short, light-colored hair that he wears parted with bangs hanging down his forehead. The man wears a black cape, a pair of baggy 3/4 pants, a black bowler hat, and pale sneakers. Like the others , he sports a black plague mask.

"This is Shin Nemoto, a former con man who's been confirmed to carry a hand gun. His quirk however needs to be considered as dangerous as Overhaul. He calls it Confession and it grants him the ability to force his victim to answer with the truth after asking them a question." Erioh explained with Raian letting out a bark of a laugh. The older man shot his descendent an unimpressed look.

"Laugh all you want just keep in mind we don't know what he could ask or who could be listening. The last thing we need is for uanessacry information to get out and be used against us." Erioh cautioned his family who nodded, knowing the man had to be taken out quickly, though as Erioh moved on more then a few were concerned on just who Erioh was concerned might be listening.

Next up was a large, tall, and very muscular man.

He wears a black tank top with a stand-by symbol, probably referring to . On his back, it's possible to see a metallic seat that he uses to carry other Shie Hassaikai members like . The man also wears olive drab jeans with an armor-looking belt. He wears a pair of blue socks and orange sneakers as well. He also wears massive gauntlets and knuckledusters on his fists.

The man wears a plague mask. In his case, it is black, with red lines, white eyes, and a golden detail around the neck. It also covers his whole head.

"This individual is Rikiya Katasukame, a hulking individual whose strength and durability if the rumors are true could rival that of Julius Reinhold and Haru Kono. His quirk Energy Suck allows him to siphon away other people's stamina by inhaling their strength away from them. He can use the stolen stamina to increase his size and strength greatly. To use his Quirk, Rikiya needs to be touching the target." Raian grinned seeing the man. "Finally someone worth killing The Devil of the Kure clan laughed but was surprised when Erioh shot him a smirk.

"Hold on a moment Raian I believe I have someone even more suited for you to fight." Erioh told the young man who blinked in surprised and actually quieted down as Erioh spoke of the next enemy but many blinked in surprise when three men appeared on screen.

The first was a tall, lean young man with light, almond-shaped eyes, their irises visibly small, with prominent dark circles around them. His hair is chin-length and bright golden-blond color, worn parted to his left to obscure his right eye. He has a wide mouth with mainly straight teeth and thin eyebrows that are usually pointed upwards; these, and the notable wideness of his eyes, give him a permanently crazed look.

The man wears a gray dress shirt with a light orange tieas well as dark pants and a beak-shaped plague mask.

Next was a tall, muscular man with shadowed eyes and his head shaven

He wears a dark dress shirt, the top few buttons left undone, and plain pants, along with a pair of black dress shoes. The man's choice of mask is a simple medical mask that he wears over his mouth, unlike the signature beak-like mask worn by the rest of the Eight Bullets.

Finally was the oddest out of the three came a a slim man with circular eyes, dark eye bags, and short, unruly black hair. He also has a notably large mouth and straight teeth.

He wears a ragged burlap sack mask that covers his entire head and is held by a rope knot around his neck. The mask has two openings from where his eyes are visible and a stitched smile. He also wears a purple dress shirt and grey pants.

"These three men are Toya Setsuno, Yu Hojo and Soramintu Tabe. They almost always fight tougher which is why I'm introducing them as a group." Erioh explained before the projector focused on Toya.

"Setsuno fights with a katana along with his quirk, Larceny allows him to instantly relocate an object from someone else's possession to his own hands. He needs to be able to see his target and there is a limit to size of what he can steal" The screen then moved to Hojo. "Hojo's quirk, Crystallize rants him the ability to produce sharp, durable crystals from his skin. This power is effective for both close-ranged offense and defense. He can grow his crystals into a sword around his arm. Reports also state that he carries a handgun." Finally it moved to Tabe.

"Tabe is probably the most troublesome of the bunch. His quirk Food allows his teeth to chew through and consume any solid substance easily, no matter how durable. His stomach can quickly digest whatever abnormal substances he has eaten with no trouble. He also has an incredible bite force." The patriarch finished his explanation of the trio.

After them came a huge, muscular man with long, light brown hair.

His face is hidden beneath the plague mask given to him by the Shie Hassaikai, and he dons a tattered t-shirt and dark pants covered by a light blue tunic and decorated with two belts. He also sports his signature gloves, which cover his hands and wrists with several leather straps and his knuckles with metal.

"This is Kendo Rappa, a former underground fighter who remained unbeaten until he joined the yakuza. His quirk Strongarm allows him to rotate his shoulders at extreme speeds, allowing him to attack his targets with a near-endless barrage of bullet punches. His Quirk can only stay active for a few seconds at a time, but this is all the time he needs to wear down his opponents." Erioh spoke before turning to Raian whose eyes had dilated. "Think you can handle him Raian?" Erioh questioned with the younger man leading out a string of cackles and giggles that Erioh took as yes.

"Next up was a tall, slim man with short, spiky hair of a pale color. He has straight, dark eyebrows and thin eyes, their irises and pupils visibly light, but he is usually seen with his eyes closed.

He wears a traditional dark-colored yukata with a pair of geta on his feet, a long white piece of cloth acting as a belt around his waist. As with the other members of the Shie Hassaikai, He wears a plague mask, his being a plain brown one worn strapped to his face with three belts, one down his forehead and one on each side of his face that also cover his ears, like mufflers.

"This man is Hekiji Tengai, described as calmed and composed his quirk Barrier allows him to materialize an extremely durable dome-shaped forcefield around himself. The strength of the forcefield has been compared to that of a steel wall.

This Quirk can be projected at a range of Hekiji's choosing with Hekiji himself at the center. It is not known if the size affects the durability of the Quirk.

Despite being very sturdy, the barrier can be broken if an extreme amount of power is used against it. Also, if Hekiji becomes too weakened or injured, he becomes unable to summon more barriers." Erioh said before moving onto the final of the bullets.

He was a very skinny and bony but muscular man with long, greasy black hair, reaching just below his shoulders. Like all members of the gang He wears a mask, his one being plain and having drains fitted into the eyeholes so that the alcohol he consumes can drip through. Aside from that, he wears nothing but a furry vest and dark pants with black shoes.

"Last up is Deidoro Sakaki a drunk who's only real threat is his quirk, Sloshed which allows him to subject nearby people to severe dizziness and inhibit their sense of balance, putting them in a state similar to being drunk. Whether that depends on how much he drinks or not is unknown." The elder finally finished before the projector showed the faces of all eleven men.

"These are the men we know for sure are coming, true they could very well bring others but these are the ones for the certain." The 1st fang told his family with Reiichi speaking. "If that's the case then this shouldn't be the difficult. From what you said they're all basically short ranged specialist and with our numbers, training and quirks we should be able to make quirk work of them." The most narcissistic member of the clan reasoned with many nodding in agreement.

Erioh himself sighed. "I wish I could agree with you Reiichi but there are to factors that wont allow me to do so. The first is that they will without a doubt be carrying Trigger on them and we have no way of telling what that could do with their quirks." Erioh reasoned before sighing and looking each of his family members in the eye. The second is that they will be joined by some of the best agents of the HPSC along with some of their own employed heroes led by none other then Hawks himself."

Disbelief and shock filled the room though thankfully it was the silent kind allowing Erioh to continue. "I don't know why the HPSC is involved but it's been confirmed and it's that reality we now face." He cautioned them. "The HPSC have been a thorn in our side for a long time but for the sake of keeping order in Japan we've let them be but no more!" Erioh snarled crushing the remote in his hands to bits.

"It's time to remind those arrogant sacks of shit just what we are capable of! Now knowing all this is there anyone among you who wish to leave and not get involved?" Erioh asked who wasn't going to force anyone into this fight when they didn't want to. The family looked around a few looking unsure but seeing the resolve on the faces of the rest of the family was enough to quell their unease.

Seeing that no one was leaving Erioh nodded and was about to move on when Dabi raised his hand. Curious the elder nodded in the burned man's direction. "Yeah so you can go ahead and leave the chicken to me." He offered while holding up his hand as fire ignited. "I've make sure to serve up some nice fried chicken wings for our victory party." Dabi promised with a smirk which Erioh soon matched.

"Granted." He agreed before addressing the rest of the family. "Now then everyone let's begin our preparations." He ordered with his smirk beaming inhuman.

"We've got guest coming after all."

Line break.

Preparations were complete and almost everyone was in place all that was left was for Karla and Izuku to get into position. The two were currently with their families making sure they would be safe. Inko herself was hugging her soon tightly fighting back tears as she did so. The teen himself was hugging her as back. "It's going to be fine Mom I promise nothing is going to happened." He swore with the woman giving a nod.

"I know Izuku but I'm your mother, it's my job to worry about you!" She said not being able to hold back the tears anymore. Izuku nodded gratefully. "I know and I love you for it, but I've got to do this." He told her with Inko nodding and pulling back. Letting her go Izuku walked over to Eri who still looked terrified. "It's going to be okay kid." He told her softly knelling down and patting her gently on the head. We won't let the bad guys get you." He promised with Karla coming over. "He's right Eri you won't ever have to go back there again." She told the little girl as Izuku got up and the two headed for the door.

"Why?" She whispered softly. "Why are they doing this?" She questioned to herself but was surprised when Inko spoke to her. "Because they're worried about you and want to protect you." The green haired mother answered with a small smile. Turning she faced the green haired woman. "But aren't you worried something might happened to them?" She questioned getting a frown from Inko. "Of course I'm worried Izuku is my son after all and it's a parent's job to worry and protect their children."

"She's right Eri." Karla's mother joined in on the conversation. "A parent would do anything to protect their children as well as destroy anything that would hurt them." She told the younger girl with Inko now smiling again. "But it's also a parent's job to trust their kids to know what they're doing when the time comes and this is one of those times. So trust in them Eri like we do." The green haired mother told the young girl.

The young girl had the words of the mother's spiraling through her head.

"A parent would do anything to protect their children.'

The memory of Karla hugging and comforting the terrified young girl came to her mind.

"As well as destroy anything that would hurt them"

The memory changed to Izuku a look of pure fury on his face smashed his face into Chisaki's face sending the villain flying.

These words and memories kept flashing through her young mind as Eri watched the two young teens leave the room, not even blinking until they were completely out of sight.

Line break.

The sun had fully set as Izuku stood on top of a building while facing the direction he knew Overhaul were coming from. Thanks to his Haki and the Glare-Glare Fruit Izuku could confirm they were being attacked by multiple sides. Dozens of military grade helicopters and armered vehicles coming at them from all sides. "It's just as your man on the inside said old man." Izuku confirmed that Kusuo's information was correct.

"Confirmed. Now Midoriya, begin the operation." Came the voice of Hollis over the radio. The boy raised his own radio. "Right." He acknowledged as he held up his hand as a transparent blue sphere appeared.

"Now, Room"

The sphere expanded until it covered several kilometers in distance which went unnoticed by the helicopters that flew into it. "Now Shambles." Izuku declared as around him the battle officially started.

In the copters Overhaul, Chronostasis and 2 other soldiers sat waiting to land. "It's almost time sir." Kurono informed his boss who nodded. "Remember Chronos when we land we need to." Chisaki suddenly blinked as those in the helicopter were now surrounded by trees. 'What just happened?' Overhaul thought to himself before the pilot's radio came to life.

"Copter-03 why have you altered your course? Respond immediately!" Came the order from the higher ups." Looking up the invaders saw that the helicopter they were in just a few seconds ago turn around and begin moving in a different direction.

"Isn't that the way our ground transport is coming from?" One of the soldiers questioned with the pilot going for his radio. "Control shoot down copter-03 immediately! Repeat shoot copter-03 down immediately! We are no longer present in the transport and it should be considered a hostile force!" The pilot tried to warn but it was too late.

More and more helicopters began changing their paths and were all now heading towards the ground transports.

Up in the skies Hawks looked around confused as the Helicopters did a 180. He honestly wanted to be anywhere but here at the moment, having been briefed on their objective and why it was so important. Yes he saw the benefits of what could come out of what was being done, but for a little girl to suffer for it went against a lot of what he believed.

Still it wasn't like he hadn't done worse in the past and had he said no not only would he most likely get fired and replaced it's likely he would meet the same fate as his predecessor and thrown in Tartarus. So here he was fighting against his beliefs while also risking his life fighting against an entire family of Assassins. All to kidnap a girl and take her back to a living hell he honestly wouldn't wish on the vilest of villains.

Truly he was doing the work of heroes everywhere

Hawks was just about to go up to the nearest copter and see what was wrong when his ears picked up a whirling sound behind him. It was only thanks to his years of training that he reacted in time, feathers darting up behind him before forming a shield right as the storm of bullets impacted the feathers.

Confused and begin to lose the last of his patience Hawks whirled around the demand to know what was going on about to pass his lips when he made eye contact with the gunner and was meet with familiar dark sclera eyes.

'Kure!' Hawks thought shocked, his mind a whirlwind of thoughts before looking back towards the other helicopters. 'Does that mean the other copters are also maned by Kure?!' He questioned trying to figure out how that was possible, considering he looked over every agent of the operation before the left and he was positive there were no Kure among him before take off.

BANG

The sound would have caused Hawks to jump slightly had he not been in the air already before calling another feather to block the bullet.

BANG

'And now there's a damn sniper to deal with.' Hawks mentally groaned using another feather to block the second one.

BANG

Hawks didn't even bother to block this one merely tilting his head and letting it pass by his head harmlessly.

And that was his biggest mistake.

Suddenly a great surge of heat originated from behind him and when he turned he saw Dabi grinning psychopathically at him as fire shot from his feet to keep him in the air while his hands started to ignite. Hawks mouth was opened in a disbelieving gasp. "How did you?" The hero questioned only to find Dabi's hands inches from his face.

"Fuck you that's how." Those were the last words Hawks received before the night sky was lit up in an ominous blue glow.

Line break.

All around the Kure village fights were taking place. Those previously in the air suddenly found themselves in combat with clan of assassins. Quirks and bullets were flying through the air while those in from the Kure clan were dominating in close range combat.

"Damn it, this is ridiculous!" Water Spout a hero in blue and silver armor growled as he let lose a torrent of water from his mouth that cut deep into multiple Kure. Balls of plasma were launched at him only for several layers of bamboo to grow out of the ground to block them, the plasma ate through the plant but left Water Spout safe and sound

Turning he saw Stalks, a woman who wore amor made bamboo mixed with kevlar create several sharpened pieces of bamboo before launching them at the Kures The woman turned and glared at the man. "Enough complaining! Let's just find the girl and get out of here!" She shouts and the man was about to shout back at her when his eyes widened.

"Look!" He hollered before pointing causing Stalks and around 5 soldiers close to them turn and see Eri standing there looking at them with wide, terrified eyes before running down a an alleyway. It took about 3 seconds for what just happened to register in each of their minds and when it did they were quick to chase after her.

It didn't take long for them to find her literally backed against the wall quivering as they slowly approachd her with the soldiers having their guns ready incase of an ambush. "Why? Why are you doing this? I thought you were heroes!" She cried with Stalks frowning. "We are heroes. We help people and you will too and your own unique way." She spoke coldly before gesturing to the soldiers. "Detain her." She ordered with the soldiers moving in.

However that's when the girl's demeanor suddenly changed. She stopped trembling, and straightened up. Her face becoming a look of anger and disgust covering her face. "So be it." She sighed as her form began to shimmer.

The heroes saw this and tried to call out a warning but it was too late as blood gushed from the soldiers neck as the small squad dropped to the ground dead. As the blood flew through the air the image of Eri vanished and in her place stood Karla a scowl on her face and bloody knife in hand.

"Shit!" You're going to pay for that you bitch!" Water Spout shouted and was about to exhale another burst of water when his neck suddenly and violently his neck had been twisted at multiple intervals.

Karla moved towards Stalks to finish her off with another Lion Bite when a wall of bamboo blocked her path before she jumped back to avoid getting impaled by bamboo. As more and more bamboo was were came towards the young assassin Karla decided to stop holding back.

Moving back enough to provide enough cover Karla unleashed her Removal up to her current limit of 85%. 

Rushing back to where Stalks was and avoiding more bamboo Karla catapulted herself off the walls of the ally and over the wall of bamboo and directly towards the hero. Panicking Stalks tried to fire several more bamboo shoots toward the younger woman only for them to cut to pieces by Karla who landed gracefully before lunging towards the hero. Stalks stumbled back trying to get away but it was no use Karla grabbed the hero by the arm and sunk the knife deep into the woman's heart.

Over and over Karla thrusted her knife into the hero's heart before in a final swiping motion decapitated the hero with her head falling to the ground besides her as blood shot from her neck like a geyser.

Karla cleaned the blood from her face as she deactivated the Removal before heading off to the nearest sound of fighting. Her resolve and determination to defend not only Eri but also her family and home growing even more.

Line break.

Loud and unhinged laughter boomed like thunder as Raian and Rappa traded blow and after blow. A front kick interrupted Rappa's most recent assault. The two passed momentarily to regain their breath. Between the two it was clear that Rappa was more damaged than Raian. Mostly due to Raian's genetics and his albeit limited Haki abilities.

Still Rappa was having the time of his life. Not since Overhaul had the masked man had a fight this good. Hell this was better conceding the guy in front of him actually gave him the fight he wanted instead of just blasting him to pieces.

So with an excited yell Rappa darted towards Raian who intercepted him with a punch to the face. The force of the blow was able to launch him back a few feet as Raian continued his assault until the man had his back against the wall of the beating with Raian punching him deeper and deeper into the wall.

"What's the matter you sack of shit?! I thought you were supposed to be a real fighter like I am?!" Raian cackled as with one final punch sent the man flying throw the wall and through several tables of the restaurant he had just entered. The yakuza got up and grabbed the remains of the table and threw it at Raian who smashed it to pieces.

Raian licked up the leg of a chair in the air before kicking it straight towards the man's head. Rappa knocked it aside easy enough but in the single second that it took him to preform this action the Kure once more closed the distance and began his next assault.

Raian began with a Buddha Killer, an elbow uppercut to the head followed by a Depth Charge which was an armor piercing blow straight to the villain's liver. Rappa spat up blood but that was the least of his worries as Izuku continued his attack with a Hard Slam which was a shoulder tackle followed by a Leg Thrust, which was a heel kick aimed at the chest and ended it with Mountain Breaker that had the Raian hitting Rappa with a double punch to his head and chest.

By the end of the Rappa was on his knees bleeding heavily and barely conscious while Rappa just watched disappointment growing. 'To think I actually thought this bastard was worth fighting.' Raian thought before slowly beginning to advance. "Well I'd say this was fun but I'm not a fucking liar! Now just stay still and this'll be mostly painless." Raian warned as he coated his arm in Haki the best he could.

Rappa managed to get out a laugh as he moved his hand to his pocket. "Yeah I sure it would be." Rappa muttered before taking his hand from his pocket with a syringe now in his grasp. Raian raised an eyebrow before he recalled what the old man said about the Yakuza and what they could be using.

"they will without a doubt be carrying Trigger on them and we have no way of telling what that could do with their quirks."

A wide smile spread across Raian's face. "You want to juice yourself up with some Trigger you sack of shit? Go ahead it won't make a difference." Raian warned him with Rappa growing a grin of his own as he injected it into his neck.

"Well we're about to find out."

Linebreak

Hojo grunted in pain as he was pushed further back by Hollis who delivered another spin kick to the man's face. His mask was already turning red thanks to the bleeding from his lip and mouth with the Kure following this up with a punch to the stomach and then an uppercut to the chin. The Yakuza formed a mass of crystals on his arm before lunging forward to try and impale him but a sudden inhuman feminine wail shattered the crystals. Hojo grit his teeth as the assassin grabbed the back of his head and slammed him face first into the ground over and over again.

"Would it kill you to try something else? Over using my quirk can be bad for me to you know." Hollis requested as he continued to bash the yakuza into the ground.

Hollis Kure, Qurk: Banshee Cry- Hollis can emit sound waves from any point of his body. These sound waves sound always sound like that of a banshee and can be used for a wide variety of things but using them for to long or upping the frequency to much could lead to Hollis damaging himself.

A small distance away Setsuno was sitting on the ground bleeding from several points on his body. His mask lay broken to the side as both his katana and the knife he kept hidden in his mask were both perching his body. Standing above was Reiichi who had a look of bored interest. "You know we're probably going to need some more intelligence later on about your other bases. So if you want to live I can see if grandfather is willing to-" Setsuno didn't let them man finish his sentence as the yakuza leapt towards the Kure who responded with a kick straight towards the man's jaw.

CRACK

That crack along with the multiple teeth told Reiichi all he needed to know. "Oops didn't mean to go that far." Reiichi sounding completely insincere with is ability. "Guess that means you won't be telling us anything. There was a pause before the man gave a shrug. "Oh well I'm sure there's someone willing to make that deal."

BOOM

Reiichi blinked as he saw the dead body of Soramistu Tabe lying at his feet. "Probably not that guy." He reasoned before glancing over to see Horio deactivating his Removal state. "Hey Reiichi, Hollis come here." He called out to his family causing the two man after making sure their opponents weren't any threat went over to the man.

"Take a look at this." Hollis said and with a quick glance to confirm it wasn't within Setsuno's line of sight brought out a syringe. "Looks like grandfather was right. These guys were ready with Trigger." Here he took a glance towards Tabe's body, "Honestly I don't want to know what that guy's quirk would have been like had he been able to enhance it." Horio muttered and there was a pained laugh with them turning to see Setsuno getting back to his feet.

"You think the boss would have us come out here with something as archaic as Trigger?!" He laughed hysterically, a syringe in his hang. The Kure's moved to stop him but were suddenly impaled with multiple crystals from the ground.

Looking over they saw Hojo back on his feet, mask discarded with an empty syringe by his feet.

"Get with the times you old farts." The blonde man said raising the needle to his neck. "From here on out." He continued with the ground starting to shake as the yakuza jabbed himself. "It's nothing but Advance from here on out!"

Line break.

All round the town the battle slowly began to shift.

"HA! HA! HA! HA! This stuff is the best!" Deidoro Sakaki cackled  as he downed bottle after after of alcohol while those around him were acting like lunatics. Fighting, looting, fucking. Their faces red with a darken smile on each of their faces.

Where in a split second Victory which seemed to be in the Kure family's grasp

Varuious Kure's with expressions of pure rage on their faces fought each other to the death, many of their family already liying dead on the ground. Standing in the middle of this chaos was Shin Nemoto, his handgun smoking as he fired bullet after bullet into the heads of distracted assassins.

Now seemed to be getting further and further away.

Hekiji Tengai calmly walked the streets a barrier protecting him from all incoming attacks. Around him were other barriers that surrounded his enemies. The barriers slowly shrunk crushing those trapped inside. The barriers only fading once the man got far enough away. Leaving those trapped inside either dead or suffering brutal injuries.

And the reason could all be traced back to one factor.

Rikiya Katsukame stomped down the road with orange energy flowing into him as around him the shriveled husk of unlucky Kure lay in the street as the Behemoth slowly lumbered towards the hospital.

Advance.

Joi Irinka watched over the battlefield as he moved the land and buildings to his will. Crushing and destroying any plans the Kure thought up. Either killing or splitting the enemy up allowing them to be picked by the others one by one.

The world was slowly beginning to change. And with this new element in play, The future just got that much more uncertain.

Line break.

The sounds of the battle were reaching Overhaul, Chronostasis and the 3 soldiers as they walked through the forest to the Kure village. "Sounds like the fightings getting worse." Kurono observed before the ground started to shake violently as they watched buildings move in the defiance. "And Mimic must have taken his dose of Advance." The yakuza added as Overhaul took out his radio to try and contact any of his men.

However he barley had time to press the button when all without warning all 5 men were sent hurtling back the way the came, pain exploding from each of their chest as they smashed through tree after tree until they finally landed back in the clearing they started from.

"W-W-What the fuck was that?!" Overhaul gasped shaking horribly as he got to his feet along with Kurono. The soldiers while still badly hurt thanks to their armor and training weere managing to get back to their feet. However everyone was cut off guard as Izuku suddenly appeared direly in front of Overhaul, a tree trunk in hand which Izuku without a word swung it down directly down on the head of the yakuza.

The second in command shouted out the warning but it was unneeded as the villain acting on pure instinct raised his hand and the moment contact between hand and log was made the log was shattered into splinters.

Izuku dropped the remains of the log right as the soldiers drew their machine guns  and opened fire. This proved pointless though because Izuku with a quick use of Shave appeared right in between them. The first soldier to notice him got a punch to the stomach that had enough force to shatter several of his ribs that caused him to collapse. The second soldier raised his gun to fire again but an elbow strike to the face not only shattered his face mask but also his face as the man collapsed.

The final soldier nervously drew his knife and charged aiming straight for the boy's heart. only for the blade to pass through him as if Izuku wasn't there at all. This was the Space-Space Fruit's Kamuai ability. Where while using it the affected body part is effectively sent to another dimension leaving it unable to be touched while also leaving it unable to interact with anything while the ability is in effect.

The soldier meanwhile was cut off guard by this and allowed Izuku to deliver a chop to the man's neck causing him to drop unconscious.

By this point both yakuza managed to get to their feet and regroup. "Did you see that?" Hari questioned his boss causing to nod. "Yeah. It seems like he has a phasing quirk." The boss theorized while rationalizing that whoever had warped them out of the helicopter could have warped the little brat here and in-between the soldiers.

"Annoying but not a problem. Quirks like that always have some limit or weakness. We just have to find it" Overhaul said placing his hand on the ground causing it to instantly crack and break apart only for it to reform as spikes ready to pierce anyone who unluckily enough to be caught by them.

The spikes raced towards Izuku who leapt high in the air catching the men off guard. Once Izuku got in range Chrono tried to fire his hour hand only for Izuku with his hand covered in Haki grabbed it. With his Haki protecting him from the effects of the yakuza's quirk used the power of the Rumble-Rumble Fruit to send volts of the lightning through the man's hair and directly towards the man himself.

The cold heartened man shook and spasamed as lightning surged through him, charing him inside and out. Overhaul watched in horror as his second in command fall to the ground unconscious and twitching violently.

"Chronos!" The yakuza hollered and was about to use his quirk to repair the damage done when Izuku appeared right beside him and unleashed a burst of flames. The man barely managed to get away grabbing Chronos as he did so with the flames igniting the boss's jacket as he moved out of the literal line of fire.

Huffing and puffing Overhaul quickly discarded his jacket and stamped out the fire. 'Last thing I need I need to deal with is a fire on top of the monster in front of me!' He growled before crouching down and gripping Chronos. For a moment the man exploded into a cloud of gore before reforming looking as good as new.

The villains eye snapped opened as he took a sharp gasp. "Chisaki!" He gasped looking around only to see hiss boss breathing hard before looking towards Izuku who crackling his knuckles. "He's a monster Chronos. A demon that wants to destroy our dream." He continued to gasp as he  reached into his pocket. "It appears we don't have a choice." Overhaul admitted while bringing out a syringe. "Overhaul are you really-?!' The second in command questioned with Overhaul shooting him a dark look.

"We don't have a choice." He muttered before blinking as Izuku suddenly vanished whirling around just in time to get a boot to the face Overhaul was sent tumbling back. 'Damn it! I will not let all I worked crumble because of one brat!' He roared keeping the miraculous still intact needle into his neck.

For a moment everything stood still as the two conscious fighters looked on. Chronos in hope and Izuku in caution. The next moment his Haki activated and the kengan champion grabbed the second in command and flew high into the air.

And not a moment to soon as dozens of craters were suddenly blown into exsitance moments before they were replaced with pits filled with spikes. 'And now I've got to deal with this shit!' Izuku growled in his head before his body was blown to particles of light.

Thankfully he managed to avoid dropping the criminal in his hand and after a few seconds fully reformed. "You really are a monster aren't you?" Overhaul shouted up to him with cold eyes, a look that Izuku readily retuned. "Looks like I might need a few extra hands." Overhaul muttered looking over to the 3 unconscious soldiers.

Izuku watched in horror as the 3 soldiers and Chisaki's body were engulfed in light. Once the light died down the 3 soldiers were gone and Chisaki looked vastly different. The man now standing over 20' in hight had an additional 3 sets of arms each finger having been replaced with muzzle and barrel of a gun. Each of his arms now needed with curved knife blades and his kind had been replaced with the armor the soldiers previously wore. Finally Overhaul's mask had fused with his face and was now acting as his mouth.

Despite his new form Overhaul growled down at the teen. "Look at what you forced me to do you demon! Look at what you forced me to become! Are you happy now?!" He roared towards Izuku who gave the man a cold glare as he landed tossing Chronos to the side who scrambled back to his boss's side.

"What happened to the soldiers that you fused with?" Izuku asked his voice betraying no emotion he demanded an answer. "They were a necessary sacrifice in order to achieve the cure this world so desperately needs." The criminal answered before he crouched down and got ready to charge. "Well demon are you prepared to finish what you started?" He questioned as clutched his fist as Haki exploded around him.

"Yeah. I'm ready to finish this."

Line break.

Dabi wore a psycho's grin as he chased Hawks through the air, his enjoyment growing more and more as Hawks lost more and more feathers. "Oh what's the matter pigeon getting tired?" He laughed  the hero grow closer and closer to the ground as more fire came to life and collided with Keigo's back. Hawks hollered in pain as he collided finally plummeted to the ground.

Dabi landed without breaking his stride and walked leisurely towards the blond who was struggling to his feet. "Come on Tweety, the bit bad pussy cat is about to pounce." Dabi warned as the pyro extended his hand ready to finally put Hawks down for good.

Roars of rage followed by gunshots causing Dabi to turn his head and see Shin Nemoto shooting another Kure who was to busy fighting each other to notice the intruder.

Glancing back Dabi saw that Keigo had managed to flee in the short seconds that Dabi was distracted. The blue flame user huffed. "You'd better make this worth it bird face." Dabi threatened under his breath as he walked towards the masked man.

Shin noticed Dabi coming and hummed. "What's this? Another challenger. No matter." The yakuza talked to himself before leveling his gun towards Dabi. "Tell me what is your hearts dark desire? What is the thing you want most in this world?" Shin questioned with Dabi grinning.

"Right now? It's to burn you to ashes." Dabi answered his fist already igniting while Nemoto was taken back. "Come one surly that can't be all you care about, surly there has to be someone in this village that has earned your scorn and thirst for revenge?" He tired again. "This was how he managed to turn the Kure's against each other.

Using the Advance allowed his quirk to evolve to the point where he can drag out people's deepest desire to the surface and cause them to act on it. Old grudges, stolen jobs, maybe even just a drunken argument here. It all added up to them being so driven and blinded by the rage that they would fight anyone that was unlucky enough to get in their way.

'So why isn't it working on him?! Surly there's someone who he despises.' Shin reasoned and to answer his previous question Dabi laughed as he got closer and closer. "Sorry man but you're out of luck. The one person I want dead isn't anywhere near here." Dabi was kind enough to inform him as he outstretched his hand. "So you'll just have to do instead."

Seeing this tactic fail Shin didn't hesitate to try and fire his gun but it did nothing to the sea of flames that the villain. soon found himself engulfed in. The screams the man emitted were music to Dabi's ears and after several seconds.

After several seconds Dabi killed the flames to examine the smoldering remains of the villain. Shockingly enough he was still alive and tried to drag himself away. "B-B-B-B-B-Boss! Boss Chisaki will fix me!"He managed to say as he Dabi casually walked over. So distracted was the Yakuza that he didn't he notice the man's approach until he felt the weight of the man's boot on his neck.

SNAP

Shin let out one last gurgle before going limb as the life left his covered eyes. Dabi showed no emotion other than a sigh. "Great." He muttered sarcastically before glancing over to the still fighting Kure. "Now what do I do with them?" He asked thinking he might just be able to get away without being seen.

BANG

BANG

BANG

BANG

BANG

BANG

With each shot another Kure went down, a special tranquilizer in each of their necks. Dabi grinned as his phone rang. Knowing who it was without even looking he answered. "Your shooting is amazing as always hun." He greeted her with Fusui giggling. "Thanks babe, you did amazing against that bowler hatted jerk. Now head north and help take out some of the remaining soldiers. The family's got the rest of the big guys handled." Fusui promised with Dabi striking.

"Your quirk is as amazingly scary." He complimented getting a blush from the girl.

Fusui Kure, quirk:Domain Observation Fusui can see up to 15 kilometers in all directions. The further away something is the blurrier it appears.

"Thanks Dabi." She muttered before shaking her head to clear her throats. "Now start moving we've got a war to win" She said before ending the call and Dabi more than happy to do fulfill his girlfriend's request headed off ready to unleash his fire on any unlucky soldier that crossed his path.

Line break.

Tengai Hekiji was taking deep breathes as he lowered his shield. One down side to his quirk he never really thought about was the limited air supply he had whenever he created a barrier. So he had to wait until he was sure there wasn't any opposing forces left that could hurt him.

SPLAT

SPALT

SPALT

Blinking in surprise he wiped his face and saw three brown glops of something with smoke flowing off them. "Well that worked out pretty well I'd have to say." Henzo Kure exclaimed as he emerged from a dumpster and begin to walk away.

However he stopped once a barrier surrounded him. Turning he saw Tengai now back behind his barrier glaring at him in suspicion. "What did you just do?" The yakuza demanded as the barrier around the Kure began to shrink.  "Answer me!" He shouted with Henzo giving  Clam smile as he conjured three of the same objects between his figngers.

"I call it Wads. I can produced these wads that secrete a liquid of my choosing"  Henzo explained as the old man started to cough. "Though I have to somehow introduce it to my body somehow. Inhaling, injecting, ingesting doesn't really matte how just as long as it's done." Henzo continued to explain as Tengai's coughing started to get worse. "And just what... did you hit me with?" " He demanded as more and more smoke filled the barrier.

Henzo answered with an innocent shrug. "Mustard gas." He revealed as the yakuza's widened in horror as his coughing got worse. He tried to maintain the barrier but after a few seconds it dropped as Henzo saw the older man drop to his knees'

"Hey guys I think it's safe to come out." Henzo called and half a dozen Kure all carrying various guns emerged from the shadows.  Tengai tried desperately and with all his power to create a barrier to defend himself but whatever he managed to create was shredded apart like wet paper by a hail of bullets.

Tengai only lived through the first few bullets that pierced through his body before one found it's way through his skull killing him instantly.

Henzo let out a sigh of relief before turning to his family members. "Thanks for all the help guys." He told the shooters before looking down the road Tengai had come from. "But come on night's not over yet. We got family members to save." He told them as the raced off down the road to try and find any Kure that survived so far.

They had already lost so many family members tonight, they'd be damned if they let anymore died if they can help it.

Line break.

Never before had Deidoro appreciate his high alcohol tolerance as he did in that moment. Giggling and downing another bottle he watched as more and more Kure made absolute fools out of themselves.

"God this Advance stuff is awesome! I gotta try mixing it with booze later!" He planned not hearing the approaching foot steps. "So it's called Advance, well I can see it lives up to its name." Erioh Kure spoke while holding a wine while alerting Deidoro to his presence. However the man by this point had gone past his tolerance and his mind was beginning to fade. So with a happy grin Sakaki raised his own bottle in greeting.

"Hey there gramps come to watch the show?" The yakuza questioned not noticing the dark look that briefly covered Erioh's face before he chuckled jovially. "Oh course but before that how about we have a toast?" Erioh proposed with Deidoro readily agreeing. "To good times with good fiends!" He cheered not nothing Erioh reach into his pocket.

The two toasted their bottles and Deidoro was about to take a drink when he suddenly stopped and glanced toward Erioh. "Hey old man how come your not effected like the rest of these jokers?" He questioned with Erioh fighting the twtich that wanted to come out before managing a chuckle. "Kure's are always built differently. Once you get old enough something as simple drunkenness no longer affects us." Erioh answered looking towards his younger family members

Deidoro accepted the answer  without hesitation started to start chugging down the booze. However after a  few moments he noticed Erioh was now glaring at him not a drop of alcohol going down his throat as his cheeks puffed. "Hey what are you-?"

That's when he spotted the lighter.

His brain barely managed to process it fully when Erioh spat the booze out while igniting it and sitting the man on fire. Erioh watched the man wiggle and scream in agony with a look of dark satisfaction before in one swift motion preformed the Heart Jab and destroyed the man's heart.

As the man laid dead Erioh unleashed a blast of Haki that put out the fire and allowed Erioh to grab the man's hair and start dragging him away and already he can see the effect of the man's quirk start to listen.

The old man wasn't sure how long the corpse was going to give the effects of his quirk but the sooner he got it away from his family the better.

Lien break.

Rikiya Katsukame had finally made it to the hospital and deactivated his quirk. Though the man now towered over the door way in hight, the fact that he planned to simply smash the doorway to pieces as he raised his fist to smash through the door.

"I'm going to have to ask you not to do that."

Pausing momentarily Rikiya looked down to see doctor Hanfusa standing in the doorway to the hospital, hands in his coat and looking at the giant with a frown. "I understand you have a war to fight with the Kure but attacking a hospital is completely unacceptable." Hanfusa told the giant who grunted. "Orders are orders. Got to get back the old boss for Overhaul so get out of my way." The billion ordered but Hanafusa wasn't concerned.

"You wish to move someone in critical condition and yet you planned to just smash your way through the halls? Are you truly that foolish?" The doctor qustioned with the gins growling and raised his fist to smash the smaller man apart.

However before the man could go through with his attack Hanafusa moved striking the man's leg causing small holes to form around the villain's leg as he collapsed in pain. The doctor allowed a cruel smirk to appear on his face.

"Fighters like you are all the same. All brawn and no brain, they no don't consider anyone smaller than then a threat." Here he let out a chuckle. "It gives guys like me the perfect opportunity to cut their threats." Hanadusa remarked before twitching his hands as two blades shot from the palms of his hands.

"Now let's get to cutting."

Katsukame growled before lunging forward on his one good leg as Hanafusa casually dodged it before slashing at the giant's torso causing blood to burst from it. Reflexly clutching his wound the villain gave the doctor a few seconds to deliver a few more cuts all across his body.

Having enough Rikiya activated his quirk to drain Hanafusa dry only for the man to remain completely unaffected. Even though his face was covered the Yakuza's surprise must have shown because Hanafusa gave him a smirk.

"Why so surprised? We had information on all of you and with after your little rampage through the village I was able to finish a few last minute operations to make sure I wouldn't be effected by your quirk or any of the quirks  in your group." Hanafusa explained with the villain gaping in disbelief.

"But we havnt been here for even an hour and I used Advance. There's no way you could be this prepared." Rikiya denied with Hanafusa humming as he scratched his chin. "Oh yes Advance.  I've been hearing about it over the comms I can't wait to study it and the effect it has on your bodies." He spoke aloud before a self indulgent smirk. "And for the record any self respecting doctor will be ready for any situation." He said as he reached into his coat and pulling out a syringe.

"Speaking of which."

Not wanting to know what was in that needle Rikiya used the last of his strength to try and run but with a quick cut to his ankle had the yakuza toppling and Hanafusa didn't spare a single second as he plunged for the needle into the villain's neck.

For three agonizing seconds Katsukame didn't know what was going to happened and for just a split second he thought whatever the doctor had used had failed. But then he felt it. His heart starting to beat faster and faster to the point it became agonizing.

"Ah yes I see the adrenaline is taking effect." The doctor smirked at the villain's pain. "Normally a shot like this would have been harmless but when added with a few extra outside components." Here he brought his swords back out and clanked them together. "They make a much more powerful mixture."

'Powerful mixture? Did he inject me with something else, could they have been on the swords?' The giant thought as he could feel his heart going faster and faster as his blood vessels started to burst as blood leaked from his eyes, ears, nose and mouth. The pain just grew and grew until there was a loud and audible pop with the yakuza slumping forward dead.

Hanafusa examined his watch as he made a note. "Pretty average time despite his large size. Guess size doesn't make a difference after all." He said as he turned to the remaining sound of battle. "Hopefully those guys will finish up soon. I have enough patients already and it seems like I'll have plenty more after that." He muttered before he grinned. "But once all that's over and done with." He said as he stoked the corpse in front of him.

"That's when I get to start my fun."

Line break,

Even as he was thrown through another building Raian was cackling like a lunatic, his 100% Removal on full display as he bounced back to his feet. The Kure spat out a wad of blood as Rappa rushed through the newly made hole. Both men were now covered in blood as they wore matching grins.

With Advance in his system Rappa's quirk now had his legs rotating along with his arms at far greater speeds then before and for far longer then before.

This when going against Raian's Removal and Haki had the two at a deadlock.

Raian rushed forward to meet his enemy and the two started the next their next exchange of attacks. For every one of Raian's hits Rappa delivered a hundred in exchange but Raian's power far exceeded Rappa's power. A front kick from Raian forced Rappa back followed by a sweeping leg kick caused Rappa to topple over though this kick cause Raian's leg to get shredded slightly. The Devil of the Kure clan mounted his opponent and began to wail away on the masked man.

With each of strike Rappp continued to giggle, to drunk on the fight to care about the pain even as he started to get blinded by the blood. 'This is how it should be!' Rappa thought in pure euphoria. 'Battles are the best when it's to the death! That way everyone is sure to give it their all!' Rappa thought before managing an upper cut that launched Raian up and through several floors as Rappa jumped to his feet.

"So come on down and let's keep this death match going!" Rappa shouted as Raian started to fall. Rappa started up his quirk again and once Raian came within striking distance landed another clean hit on the man's chest.

However as Raian was launched on the other side of the room Rappa felt a an intense pain from the arm that just striked Raian. Looking down Rappa was shocked to find that the arm was had been nearly ripped off his body only holding on due to the muscle fibers.

'When did he-?!' Rappa thought as he saw Raian standing up with a vicious smirk though his arm was unmistakably broken with bones sticking out of several places. "Yeah my quirk has a bitch of a side-effect but you gotta admit it's effective when I need it to be!"

Raian Kure, quirk: Reckless Damage- multiples the damage Raian strikes can deliver but he receives half on that damage onto himself.

The fight was coming to a standstill and both men knew it. So with one last smirk they rocketed it forward, Approximately 2 seconds after they meet Rappa's damaged arm had been torn of body. A few seconds after that Rappa's other arm exploded as Raian's other arm went limp. The yakuza tried to go for a kick but Raian was faster and slammed his foot into the dark haired man's skull cracking it. Rappa collapsed to the floor as he watched Raian leap into the air and descend towards the villain.

Time slowed down for the Yakuza would could do nothing as he watched his death approach, despite that he could only grin. 'Thanks for the match man! I couldn't have asked for more!' Were his final thoughts before Raian's hit connected smashing the man's skull to pieces.

Raian heaved as he started to walk slowly towards the hole they entered through, limbing as he did so. "Now that's how a fight should be." Raian muttered to himself in a daze. "Now let's go find ano...." The Kure trailed off as he tripped over his feet before finally collapsing to the ground

The man broken and bloodied laid there with a smile on his face. His only regret was that he didn't get to fight any of the other invaders now that they actually proved themselves interesting.

Line break

Horio and Reiichi looked cautiously at their opponent as Setsuno flexed his hands. To their left was a giant crystal wall that cut themselves off from Hollis. The sounds of crystals forming along with the screaming of a banshee at least told them that the fight was still going on.

As for Toya he was examining his surroundings. "That's weird." He muttered as along with his normal vision he also saw countless strings that started at his fingers but seemed to connect to just about everything. "Wonder what will happened if I do this." The blonde muttered and twitched the pinky on his left hand. One of the strings started to vibrate before his entire fist started to glow and suddenly Toya's vision grew much more pronounced, letting him see everything as if looking at it from under a microscope.

"What the hell?" Reiichi said shocked starting Horio. "What's the matter?" He questioned his younger relative. "M-My vision, it's gone!" Reiichi exclaimed causing Horio to snap his attention towards the egotistical Kure before looking over towards Toya who was looking around as if seeing things for the fist time.

Narrowing his eyes Horio rushed forward, his Removal going full effect as he aimed to take the man's head off. Unfortunately the blond saw this coming and managed to jump out of the way. "Great now what do I do?"  He questioned before noticing one of the strings on is right hand attached to Horio's muscles. Flicking his finger caused his right hand to start to glow,

The yakuza's muscles started to bulge and grow as he could feel power coursing through him. With a grin Setsuno also darted towards Horio who felt something was wrong but he pressed on and threw the best punch he could but it did next to nothing. Horio barely had time to widen his eyes when Setsuno's fist made contact with the older man's face. Instantly Horio could feel his nose break with several teeth getting nocked out as he was pushed back.

Setsuno followed by up by delivering a kick to the man's torso that knocked him back several meters. Growling Horio's form became to change. Growing bigger as fur started to cover his body as horns grew out of his head while he dropped to all fours which had became hoofs.

This was Horio's quirk Bull which allowed the man to become a bull. The assassin charged towards Setsuno who had to jump out the way though the horns missed the man by a hair. 'Alright I can work with this.' He thought as he glanced toward the side where Reiichi was waiting on the sidewalk with a frustrated look on his face.

'That one is just a liability as this point.' He thought before turning back to Horio who stoped his running and turned to charge towards Setsuno. The blond man however gained a look of greed on his face as he saw a string on his left hand connected to the bull's back legs. 'Let's see what else can I get out of this.' He thought as he flicked the finger the string was attached to  and instantly the finger began to shake. Again that feeling that Setsuno was already growing addicted to flooded him.

He watched with glee as the Kure began to slow down considerably though it wasn't as clear as it which he found slightly odd but didn't let him bother him as he prepared to play with the Kure. 'I always wanted to be a matador.' He thought as he prepared to leap away from the bull.

That's until he was stabbed through by his own katana.

The blond Yakuza gasped for air as blood leaked out his mouth before managing to turn his head to see Reiichi standing there glaring daftly at him "H-how?" He questioned though all he got for an answer was a Lion's Bite that twisted his head clear off.

Reiichi just clicked his tongue as Horio now human again walked over. "You okay?" The bull demon asked with Reiichi nodding. "Yeah I regained my sight around the snake time you slowed down. Guess he could only steal so much at one time." The narcissist guessed with Horio grunting as he looked towards the crystal wall. "Doesn't matter I suppose. Right now we need to work on finishing the invaders off for good." The older Kure reminded him as the two set off to help their family members.

Line break.

Sound and crystal once again meet in a deadlock Hollis  delivered a crescent kick toward the man who blocked with a shield of crystals. Hojo conjured up a massive pillar of crystals from his arm meant to run Hollis through the man jumped over the crystals and onto the pillar and ran towards Hojo. More and more crystal spikes popped up on the pillar some of which pierced the man's foot.

Hollis ignored the pain and after getting close enough grabbed the man by the face and unleashed a sound wave meant to rupture every organ in Hojo's body. The crystal making man wasn't going to just let himself down and fried a barrage of crstyals through the Hollis.

The two men were determined to if not win then at least make sure they took the other man out with him. Hollis grit his teeth as he upped the decimals on his quirk before activating his Removal as the strength of his grip increased along with the pressure.

This along with the added durability Removal gave him was just the tipping point that Hollis needed t out last Hojo and even with crystals sticking out from everywhere the assassin was the last one standing as Hojo with his organs practically liquified dropped to the ground dead.

Letting out a sigh of relief Hollis reached into his pocket and pulled out his radio. "Hollis here. The enemy is down but I'm boxed in. Gonna need some help." He requested seeing that he was boxed in with Fusui answering a moment later.

"Good to hear Hollis now just sit tight. All that's left is Overhaul, Chronostasis and Mimic. And they'll be dealt with shortly. Once mimic is dealt with I'll send someone and get you to the hospital. Though it's already flooding with people waiting for medical attention." She warned with Hollis letting out a sigh but nodding. "Understood." He confirmed before killing the connection and sitting down hoping no more family members would be lost.

LIne break.

'Worthless! All of them are worthless!' Mimic seethed as one by one the eight bullets were defeated and killed. 'Even with Advance they couldn't kill one fucking family!' Mimic growled and was about to crush more Kure when he heard an all too familiar voice cry out.

"Mimic! Mimic! Where are you?!" Snapping his attention towards where it came from Joi saw a bloody and beaten Chronos carrying an unconscious Overhaul. "Mimic we've got to go! The invasion's failed! We've got to get out of here!" The man shouted and Joi didn't even question it as he emerged from the walls onto the sidewalk where the two were standing.

"What happened?! Who did this to him?!" Mimic demanded with Hari snarling. "It was the green haired monster! He basically tortured the boss, I don't know how we managed to get away!" The time manipulator explained with Joi seething. "They'll pay for this!" He growled with Hari nodding. "They will." He promised before pointing towards the forest. "But for now we need to escape. Most of the helicopters were stolen and are destroying the ground units."  The man passed and even now they could hear the stolen aircrafts raining down bullets.

"But one managed to land safely. We're going to take it and retreat for now." Chronos explained with Joi nodding. "Right let's go!" Mimic grunting furious that they had been humiliated like this. But as he starting running down the street he swore revenge on every Kure and that one day he would-

BANG

Joi spat out one final breath as the bullet tore through his heart before he collapsed onto the ground dead. Behind him where his fellow yakuza once stood now Karla and her younger brother Sarura a handgun in his hands. "Great shot Sarura." Karla praised her little bother who smiled at his sister. "Thanks Karla but I couldn't have gotten such a clean shot without your quirk." He praised her back with Karla taking it with an equal amount of humility.

"Well with Mimic dead all that only leaves Overhaul and Chronostasis." Karla muttered as she looked towards the direction the faint sounds of battle, just a hint of worry in her tone as said this only. Sarura seeing placed a comforting hand on her shoulder. "He's going to be fine Karla. He's your future finance and my future big brother- in-law after all." He reminded her getting a smile and nod.

The two siblings then went off to assist the rest of their family either by picking off any stragglers or helping their family to the hospital know that the end of the battle would be coming all to soon.

Line break.

Izuku and Overhaul glared at each other as they continued their standoff each waiting for the other to make the first move. Chronos was looking nervous as he waited or the perfect opportunity to jump in.

The standoff continued for several seconds before Izuku moved. Moving forward in a burst of speed Izuku's knee connected with the giant's chest. This wants a knee strike however as Izuku had it powered by several devil fruits. The Strong-Strong Fruit to increase his strength, The Kilo-Kilo  to add weight to the strike. A combination of the Spike-Spike Fruit and the Spin-Spin Fruit to turn his knee into a massive rotating drill. And finally the Swift-Swift Fruit to increase his speed.

The result was a super powered drill that was going faster then the speed of sound with the impact causing a sonic boom as Overhaul went rocketing back. Blood poured from the man's torso as he felt the his stomach about to cave in though with a quick use of his quirk and the damage was fully gone.

That didn't seem to faze Izuku who warped in front of the man and delivered a punch enhanced by the Strong-Strong Fruit and the Kilo-Kilo Fruit in that would have caved in the head of a less durable man.

Overhaul ignored the pain and pointed all 30 of is fingers towards Izuku and from the finger barrels gun fire in the forms of bone shot towards Izuku. The bones passed harmlessly through Izuku and he noticed Overhaul's finger start to deflate. Though another use of Overhaul restored his fingers to new.

Overhaul raised all 6 of his arms ready to slice Izuku apart with his bladed elbows only for Izuku to form 4 extra arms and morphed them into blades which collided with Overhaul though Izuku made sure to cover his arms in Haki so Overhaul's quirk wouldn't  effect him.

Added to that Izuku ran lightning through his arms momentarily paralyzing the man. Then using Arms-Arms Fruit Izuku morphed his chest into a gatteling gun with each bullet exploding on impact with due to the Bomb-Bomb Fruit. Following this up Overhaul was subjected to the Raptor Claws slicing him in multiple places.

Not letting up Izuku covered his hand in ice before grabbing one of Overhaul's own hand before tossing him in the air. Warping above the villain Izuku once more added the power of the Strong-Strong Fruit and the Kilo-Kilo Fruit to his arm before striking Overhaul with a Iron Hammer that sent the man slamming into ground with such force it caused the entire area to shake.

Shaking as he got to his feet Izuku was pleased to see that while his wounds were still healing it was going noticeably slower than before. Warping once more Izuku landed a Landmine Punch which was basic punch that had the power of the Bomb-Bomb Fruit behind it.

Chronos desperate to help his boss tried to slow Izuku down with his quirk only for Izuku to strike him hard in the face with his Haki covered fist sending the man flying through the air. Overhaul was back on his feet and tired to swipe at Izuku only for Izuku to sidestep the attack and then retaliate with Goudou.

However unlike his Kengan matches Izuku used his full force during this bite, using the Nika Fruit to expand his jaw he easily chomped through the massive wrist with the hand being spat onto the ground.

Overhaul started hyperventilating both at the blood flowing from his wrist and the savage wa he had been attacked.  Overhaul attempted to use his quirk to repair his hand but Izuku quickly used the Blood-Blood Fruit to manipulate and stab multiple holes through the behemoth.

Seeing the man swaying back and forth Izuku saw the chance to end the fight once and for all. Using Shave Izuku appeared directly in front of the man delivered Quaking Uppercut directly towards the man's jaw.

The man flew high into the air and after charging light into his finger Shot a Light Laser directly through the yakuza's chest. This proved be the breaking point as Overhaul couldn't hold the form anymore and split back apart as he and the soldiers separated. Acting quickly Izuku formed and sent clouds to safely bring them to the ground with the power of the logia type Cloud-Cloud Fruit.

Though thanks to his Haki Izuku could tell the soldiers were already gone causing him to scowl. The scowl got worse when more craters started forming around him. Looking up he saw that Overhaul was leaning over the side and trying to blast Izuku to pieces.

This proved to be Izuku's breaking point as he watched the man getting closer and closer. Through the entire fight Izuku's Haki had been active letting Izuku know what had happened during the war.

Every scream

Every cry

Every injury

Every death

Izuku had witnessed everything and it had finally shaved away the rest of his patience. With a snap of his fingers the cloud Chisaki was riding on dropped to the ground with a thud. Groaning CHisaki grabbed the back of Overhaul's shirt and started dragging him towards the town with the Dark-Dark Fruit active to negate Overhaul's quirk while Izuku created a clone who did the same to Chronostasis as Izuku stored the soldier's body away.

Izuku walked in silence as he took the man closer and closer to the Kure village when Chisaki spoke. "You don't understand." He muttered as Izuku stopped walking. "What don't I understand?" He asked in a controlled voice. "That lengths that must be done for the rightful order to be restored." The yakuza answered with Izuku tsking in annoyance.

"Is that what you tell yourselves to justify the torture you put Eri through?" Izuku asked with Overhaul scoffing. "That's what this is about eh? You're angry how I treated that thing?"

CRACK!

Overhaul went tumbling away clutching his chest in pain as a collar and chain of darkness wrapped around his neck. Izuku slowly lowered his foot. "Talk about Eri like that again and see what happens." Izuku warned with Overhaul spitting out blood and glaring up at the teen.

"What feel sorry for the little monster? Feeling bad for that wretched little thing even after she killed her father and drove her mother to insanity?!"

CRACK

BAM

POW.

A strike to the nose, spine and testicles had Overhaul howling in pain but with a quick pull of the chain got Overhaul back in Izuku's face. "What the fuck did I just say?" Izuku questioned with Overhaul not backdown. "To hell with what you said that girl is a monster that proves what's wrong with his era!" Overhaul roared with Izuku slamming him into the ground.

"You can try to deny it but the HPSC definitely agrees with me. Why else would we be trying so hard to to get Eri back. Her purpose is to cure this sickened world and if she has to suffer for it then that's her responsibility to bear."

BOOM

BOOM

"You're insane." Izuku growled as Chisaki, his face covered in blood continued his insane rant. "I'm insane?! That's a laugh. Do you really think that the HPSC will give up on Eri after one attempt, Between Eri's DNA can remove quirks and the Advance which if even temporary can awaken a quirk to its full potential the age of heroes and villains can come to an end with the era of quirks following soon afterwards

So take off those rose colored glasses you little brat Eri was born to suffer and sacrifice, that's something I've pounded into her brain again and again even when the boss was still around."

CRUNCH!  CRUNCH! Both of Overhaul's legs now laid broken.

"It's her recompense for being born with power that goes against the laws of nature. A debt she'll be paying for the rest of her life and even afterwards thanks to my quirk. Hell it might be easier to just off the brat now and use her cadaver instead.

BOW!  BOW!  BOW! BOW!  BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW!  BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! BOW! All of Overhaul's ribs were now dust and Izuku's hand was wrapped around his neck as Overhaul l let out a deranged chuckle. Madness taking over due to the pain.

"You think killing me will stop all this?! Don't be ridiculous. They know how dangerous that creature is and how to go through the procedure if I don't do it they'll find another doctor to do it." He told the teen who looked him directly in the eye.

"Face it kid. It doesn't matter what happens. That little girl is going to be hunted down for the rest of her life like the monster she is-"

CRACK.

Overhaul's final words died  as his throat was crushed and he slumped down. Izuku blinked once and twice before slowly and gently removing his hand from the man's neck. "What just... Did I just...? He muttered his brain trying to process what just happened even as his Haki sensed nothing from the yakuza.

What his Haki did sense was rage and hostility barreling towards him and on instinct transformed his hand into a sword and sliced at the hostile force.  The warm blood gushed from Chrono's neck as his head was separated from his body. Izuku stared numbly at the two dead men in front of him, absently grabbing his radio and answering.

"Fusui it's done. Overhaul and Chrononostasis are both dead." He told her and the sniper sucked in a breath. "Dead? Shit Izuku I don't... I mean I'm so-" She tried to say before taking a deep breath "Look Izuku I don't know what to say or what you're feeling right now but please we still need your help." She pleaded. "We have so many dead and even more wounded. We could really use your healing powers right now."

Izuku heard her request and the desperation in her voice and as sick as it sounded he was grateful for it. Grateful that he had something to distract himself with albeit temporarily.  The problem was that even his best healing powers had their limits and if the injuries were bad enough they wouldn't be fully healed.

'We'd need something more, something that can-.' He his thought process trailed off as he starred at Overhaul's corpse as Overhaul's words rang through his head.  "Advance which if even temporary can awaken a quirk to its full potential."

It's a long shot but if it worked.

"Fusui, did anyone manage to get a dose of Advance off the enemy?" Izuku questioned with Fusui humming after a few seconds. "Oh yeah Uncle Horio managed to get one." She confirmed with Izuku letting out a sigh. "Keep it safe I've got a plan but I need that dose." Izuku instructed with Fusui letting out an uneasy hum.

"We can do that Izuku but are you sure? We don't know the side effects of it yet." She reminded him. "I know that but believe me it's our best option." Izuku promised the sniper who sighed. "Alright Izuku if you're sure." With that the line went dead and after storing away the two dead men was about to move back to the village when he came face to face with Hawks.

The two made eye contact with Hawks shaking for both his injuries and his nerves until Izuku after seeing the extent of the man's injuries just turned his head and began walking away with the sound of running behind letting him know Hawks was doing the same.

With luck the man would make his way back to civilization and get help, and if not considering that the man was perfectly willing to help capture and torture a little girl Izuku was perfectly willing to call it Karma.

Line break.

Overhaul and the rest the Shie Hassaikai lay in the morgue as Izuku, Karla, Erioh and doctor Hanafusa stood nearby with the doctor watching eagerly for what was about to happened. "You sure about this Izuku" Karla asked with Izuku nodding as he took the needle from the table. "I'm sure," And with no further delay plunged the needle into his neck.

Izuku could feel the effects instantly as his body surged with power however along with that came a pain like no other. Feeling as if his body was being torn apart and being sewn back together as he doubled over in pain.

Karla rushed to help him but Erioh held her back as they watched his form begin to shimmer and change. At first it appeared as if Izuku looked normal, but then it changed to Izuku but his arms were naturally long and then his from changed to where it was his legs that were long.

Then the changes got odder. From a version of Izuku that resembled that of a great white shark, to one that was as tiny as gnome, Something smashed into the roof and for a second Izuku appeared as a giant. Over and over Izuku's form changed finally he was back to normal and with deep labored breathes he finally stood back up.

"Izuku are you okay?" Karla questioned with letting out a triumphant chuckle as he looked towards her. "It worked." He delcared as he pointed towards the bodies which now had black smoke emitting from them. In fact all the corpses in the room had smoke leaking from them but Izuku had his full attention on Overhaul as he spoke his next word.

"Arise."

Darkness covered the yakuza until their entire bodies were enveloped in shadows as a purple glow started to emit from them. And then slowly ever so slowly started to twitch. The kures along with Hanafusa stared transfixed as the shadows slowly sat up and got got to their feet and moved as one until they were standing directly in front of Izuku before kneeling as one.

"My king." The greeted with Izuku looking at them with Izuku letting out a relived sigh. "Thank god it worked." He said looking over the shadows. The Kure were speechless at the sight while Hanafusa was practically salivating as he wrote down notes as quickly as he could.

"Izuku what are these?" Karla spoke in wonder as Izuku turned to her. "Shadow Soldiers. The ultimate ability of the Shadow-Shadow Fruit. Capable of creating any a copy of any corpse made of shadow. They are completely loyal, can't feel pain and as long as the user has the stamina will always reform." He explained with Hanafusa practically glowing.

"Incredible! Actual living dead! I never thought I'd see the day!" The doctor marveled as he looked over the shadows trying to examine every part of them.

"Kind words for you to say but these soldiers have a long way to go before they prove themselves worthy as a shadow soldier." A voice echoed from Izuku's shadow while three figures started to raise.

The male angel and knight toward above all those living in the room while the woman was the same hight as Izuku. "So you're the 3 generals I've got eh?" He questioned with the knight nodding. "Yes my king all we require are names." He requested with Izuku nodding. "Of course but I need you to be patient for a bit longer until we've got this mess settled." Izuku requested with the woman nodding. "Of course my lord, we will wait till the end of time of necessary." She reassured him.

Giving a nod Izuku saw that the other 3 humans in the room were looking at him confused so Izuku answered the question he knew they had. "When you awakened the Shadow-Shadow Fruit the user gains three shadows to start off with. The strength, abilities and forms  of the shadows vary depending on the user's personality and  strength but considering the Advance boosted my quirk to it's limits when they emerged they seemed to come out at full strength." Izuku explained before turning back towards the yakuza. 

"Stand up Overhaul you've got a lot of work to do." He ordered the shadow who rose to his feet. "Hanafusa please take him to the most critically injured first. He should be able to fix almost any one with his quirk." He requested with the doctor nodding. "Of course I'm looking forward to see how well this shadow uses his quirk in contrast to the original." He admitted before leaving the room with the shadow following after him.

"If that's all then I'll be going." Izuku requested of Erioh as who nodded. Seeing the dismissal Izuku and Karla both left the room the shadows melting into their master's shadow as he passed leaving the old man alone.

Once he was sure they were gone Erioh reached into his pocket and pulled out his phone. Once the other end picked up the old man didn't waste a second. 

"It's me. Gather up anyone you can and prepare to leave." Erioh ordered as veins started to grow on his arms. "IF those pricks at the HPSC think they can get away with this unpunished they've got another thing coming!"

Vengeance is coming and it's going to be swift and merciless.

Line break

Deep in the headquarters of the HPSC the alarms blared as bodies were sprawled apart everywhere. Along with them were crystals growing out of everywhere from the floor, walls ceiling and even the bodies. In the main control room dozens of people sat, their expression vacant as they rapidly typed away on their councils, crystals growing out the back of each of their head.

Also in the room were 3 men. The first two Yan and Niko Tokita watching the the people work. "No matter how many times I see it, it doesn't fail to freak me out." Niko muttered with Yan shrugging. "Strange as it is, you can't deny this isn't effective." The head defended before looking over towards the corner. "Your quirk really is helpful Edward." 

This was Edward Wu also known as the King of Hades, head of the western faction of the Wu clan and an affiliate of the worm.

Edward gave a shrug. "What can I say I aim to please." Edward answered before giving a smirk. "Especially if it meant finally meeting the connector." He added on with Yan groaning as he slapped his head. "Honestly I don't know what his problem is. I've asked for him to meet you many times but it's always a no." Yan explained before giving a shrug. "Something about you being to intense no matter what era the two of you are in." Yan explained with Edward letting out an amused snort.

"Well that's to bad." Edward drawled before looking towards the screens which something being uploaded and it being at 96% done. "Still thought this was a pretty good day. We were able to test out Advance on the Kure, turn their attention to the HPSC not to mention the show we're bound to get out of this." He chuckled as the upload neared 100% "This was a pretty good day."

"And it's about to be even better." Yan muttered as everything had been fully uploaded. "Well heroes best of luck for what comes next."

Line break.

Mera raced down the street as fast as he could towards the president's current residence. He had been having a peaceful morning when all of a sudden he got a call from one of his agents in the hospital that hawks was in the ER undergoing surgery. Last he heard the man was on death's door when he was picked up on the edge of town and had been fighting for his life ever since.

He had tried to call the president multiple times but got no answer. This wouldn't have been that bad on it's own as she was often busy but after once he tired and failed to through to multiple high ranking members of the HPSC he started to get concerned.

And after he learned what happened the previous day and the mission they ordered he quickly rushed out the door.  It took longer then he wanted but he had at last made it to his destination. 

Quickly putting in the security code he quickly made his way up to her home. Knocking quickly he waited for her to answer the door. After a few seconds and no one coming out he knocked again to again no reply.

After the 3rd time Mera ran out of patience and forced the door opened by breaking it with his shoulder. 

"Madam President!" He shouted looking around wildly and desperately. "Madam President were are you!" He called praying for an answer. Soon he had checked everywhere except her bedroom so with his nerves going full force he slowly opened the door.

The first thing he noticed was the trail of blood leading towards the bathroom, the rug stained blood and several pictures knocked to the floor. The blood trail lead to where Mera knew the president had her safety room and with hope in his heart rounded the corner.

And stumped right over the president's corpse. Scrambling to his feet Mera checked her over praying for a pulse only for to find none. Slowly and shakily he reached for his phone to alert anyone he could about this when the very item started to ring.

Jumping slightly he scrambled for a few seconds before pressing the accept button. "He-" "It's been leaked." The other side stated this before Mera could even finish his greeting. "Leaked. What's been leaked?" He questioned with the caller sounding bleak as he answered.

"All of it. Every file, every record, every last secret the HPSC has ever hidden. It's all out there on the internet with copies upon copies already being made." The agent answered standing in the control room as other agents examined both the crystals and dead bodies they found.

For Mera that's when the world stopped. Hawks their best agent sounding like he's being fired to retire due to injuries, the president and possibly high ranking members of the HPSC dead and finally every dirty little secret exposed for the world to see.

"S-Sir." The agent questioned sounding just as lost and unsure as Mera felt. "What do we do know?" He questioned.

Mera had no answer.

To be continued,

Well that's another chapter in the books. Hope everyone liked it.

The fight with Kiozan was fun and I wanted to do it because I don't think I'll have an opportunity to put the two of them up against each other in the future and wanted to do it now.

And yes we got Eri here and early too. I can easily see the old boss and Erioh being pulled fiends with the Kure wanting to check up on his friend. 

With that said I hope everyone enjoyed the fights and the power ups I gave the Yakuza during the fight. I wanted to give the Kure a challenge without having to nurf them. 

We also saw Izuku's first couple of kills in this chapter. As for how it will affect him that's later down the road.

Now let me say this now Advance is basically the top form of quirk enhancer drugs so I do think it could temporarily awaken Izuku to his full power, with temporarily being the key word there. It's going to be a long time before he awakens his powers fully but that doesn't mean he didn't walk away with some kind of upgrade and I'm not talking about the shadows.

Speaking of shadows yes they're here to stay but Izuku's not going to go on a crazy shadow collecting spree. He's got two more big shadow collecting moments and that's it until part 2 of this trilogy. And yes I do have a way for Izuku to get more shadows despite his powers not being awakened.

And finally regarding Edward not having meet the connector. It's almost impossible for them not to have meet in cannon but for those that are caught up with Omega here the connector has meet "Edward" multiple times during the ages and every time the man's been a massive pain in the ass leading to the connector just wanting an Era away from him.

Finally yes the whole world knows the dirty little secrets the HPSC have tried to hide with the top brass being assassinated though the two events are not connected.

The ramifications along with so much more will be shown next chapter as I'm going to try and cover the remaining 18 months between Ashura and Omega because once we to the Kegan-Purgatory tournament things will be really picking up until we reach UA.

Oh and remember UA is a thing in this.

That's it for now.

Till next time,

bye.
