The assault team had made it to the hole Straga had appeared from and were now standing at the edge of it, peering down trying to get a glimpse of anything that might be waiting for them. "You guys see anything?" Don questioned as he tried to make out any enemies. Most of the party couldn't see anything but Alastor hummed as he held up his mic.

A pulse emitted from it that flowed down the pit. For several seconds nothing particular happened until a loud burst of sonic echoed back forcing many of them to cover their ears. "Dagnabbit a little warning next time!" Millie scowled towards the radio demon who ignored her as he looked towards Izuku.

"Well there are certainly enemies waiting for us, they are quite a bit downwards. Should we warp straight to the bottom we should be able to avoid them entirely." The radio demon theorized with Striker snorting. "Or we could be warping right in the middle of the horde." Striker countered with the sinner giving a wide faced grin.

"You say that as if it were a bad thing." The red themed sinner spoke causing the imp roll his eyes in annoyance. "Yeah well unlike you lot we imps don't usually come back after we're killed." The imp felt the need to remind Alastor who by the look on his face did indeed remember that little fact.

"Yeah I wouldn't be so sure about that." Izuku muttered while using the Glare-Glare Fruit to look into the bottom of the pit to see a growing horde of monsters while many of them started to climb out. So focused on this it took him a few seconds to realize everyone else had gone quiet. Turning he the others looking at him with a mix of confusion and slight nervousness. Finally it was Dolly who broke as she let out a nervous giggle and absently played with a strand of her hair.

"And just what eh.. what do you mean by that?" She questioned with Izuku looking at the sinners with a look that held just the slightest amount of pity before deciding to simply bite the bullet and answer. "Look I'm just saying you're all in uncharted waters right now. The first nonnatives to ever visit a ring other than Pride. We don't what could happened to sinners when they're away from pride for to long.

True nothing has happened yet but it's only been a week. So it's hard to say what could happened. Could be nothing but who's to say for all we know your powers could be wavering over time and should the worst happened and one of us ends up dead there could very well be a chance that there's no coming back."

Izuku's words were as blunt as they could be and it was clear that the thought never occurred to any of them. Even the usually unshakable Alastor looked like he was having second thoughts about continuing with this little expedition. Millie and Striker in particular had to fight the smug grins that wanted to come to their faces as Millie spoke up.

"So what's the plan boss? We gonna warp down there and start kicking ass?" She quesiotnued her arms and fingers becoming bladed thanks to her new devil fruit. The overlords glanced towards Izuku nervously, the recent conversation clearly weighing on them. Thankfully for them Izuku shock his head as he tied his bandana around his head and then extending his arm. "We're going to clear out the gunk first." Izuku corrected as lightning surged along his arm to his hand before forming into a large orb floating a few inches above his hand.

This was a miniature version of Raigo, a destructive technique that could level cities or in this case wipe out hordes of enemies in a single instant.

Bolts of lighting surged off it every few seconds as Izuku extended his hand and dropped the sphere into the hole. Down and down it fell, lightning sparking of it frying every demon it passed causing them to fall. The demons at the bottom of the pit roared as the light got closer and closer until finally it gently made contact with the ground below.

A moment later the pit was bathed in light.

Topside the imps and overlords either jumped or flinched back as the pillar lightning surged and cackled. "He really is a monster isn't he?" Striker muttered under his breath. Even after already seeing some of what the kid could do he was still surprised by just what Izuku is capable of. "You get used to it." Don muttered with Striker raising a doubtful eyebrow. "Well you get less surprised as time goes on I guess." He corrected with Striker grunting, that sounded right.

"Right then everyone come here. I'll warp us down." Izuku instructed. Millie and Striker had no problem with this and insatiately grabbed his arm and shoulder respectively. The overlords were reluctant now that the fear of their existence suddenly ending was plaguing their minds. Millie and Izuku shared and unsure looks but surprisingly it was Striker who knew what to say.

With a smirk the imp lifted his hand. "What's wrong oh mighty overloads. Is a little danger enough to quell and squash the confidnece and pride you've been building for decades?" The imp mocked his tail shaking while giving off a the sound of a rattlesnake. The overlords didn't take kindly to this naturally as their eyes began to shine. "You'd do well to watch your tone imp. Unless you need a reminder of your place." Countess cautioned the hissing of snakes emitting around her.

Despite the danger Striker still managed to keep his smugness. "Well my place might be in question what is not is that currently that while the two lowly imps are willing and ready to go the all mighty overlords are standing there and twittering twirling their thumbs as they debated on going." The overlords growled at the smug imp but they couldn't exactly say anything against his words.

What was worse was that their master was looking at them with a raised eyebrow. Had it been Alastor the demon would have just forced them to do whatever he wanted them to do no questions asked. Izuku however was much more lenient and would probably let them stay behind if they wanted. If for no other reason to then to make sure they weren't a hindrance should they choose to run off later.

Loud static suddenly filled the area as the world seemed to start distorting lately as slowly Alastor started to approach the imp who despite now scowling and sweating heavily didn't flinch as the man was now mere inches from the imp with the two ignoring the warning glare from Izuku nor the fact that Millie's tail now morphed into a spear was pointed at Alastor.

The standoff continued for several more seconds before Alastor's hand slowly rose before it was placed on Izuku's shoulder right next to Striker's before glancing towards the remaining overloads. "Well shall we get moving?" He questioned as the overlords glanced at him with disbelieving looks

"Alastor, you of all people are not going to do anything?" Dolly questioned in disbelief knowing that the radio demon has destroyed souls for saying far less. Alastor's smile became slightly unhinged. "Oh believe me I would like nothing more than to show this miserable little wretch his place!" Alastor informed them briefly glancing towards Striker as his eyes turned to dials.

"And I would had it not been for one infuriating reason." Alastor continued and everyone could see his eyes twitching in annoyance as he reluctantly admitted his next statement. "Everything he just said was absolutely correct." The words came out of his mouth like a garbled mess and as jaws dropped from the other sinners but Alastor continued knowing that if he stopped now he wouldn't be able to stomach it enough to say it again.

"We who were supposed to the scourges and terrors of the pride ring gets cold feet at the first hint of danger before turning and running away with our tails between our legs while the lowly imps step forward without a single thought. Unacceptable." Alastor managed to get out before taking a deep breath with the next few words coming out much easier.

"So I say we remember who we are and prove to our dear new friend here." Alastor went a little demonic for a second before turning back. "Who we are and why we are here." He challenged his fellow overlords whose pride and rage towards the imp had over taken any uncertainty they might have had and with one last glare walked over and each placed their hands on Izuku.

In an instant the surroundings changed now Darknss surrounded them aside for a large hole of light that was above them. All Around them were the bodies of dead demons their skin blackened and crisp from the lightning. "Well then first thing's first." Izuku muttered as his eyes to glow.

"Arise."

Hundreds of new shadows answered the call from imps to marauders the new soldiers were quick to gather before their new master and bow. "So we've got some backup now. What's the plan?" Dolly questioned with Izuku looking around trying to get a better look of their surroundings.

It was a large cavern with multiple entrances and while he could faintly sense Straga somewhere below him. He couldn't get a direct lock on him. 'The Glare-Glare Fruit isn't working either.' He thought in frustration. Deciding to worry about that worry he quickly formed his plan. 'Marauders take our forces and pick a route. "If you find a way down to the big bastard let me know immediately. Any opposition you come across take them down and tear a bit of them. I only need a bit for them to become a shadow." He instructed the shadows who nodded.

The maunders stood started heading for exists, seemingly having a quick and silent conversation about which route to take and soon were traveling down their respective tunnels. Watching them go he turned he turned towards his team. "Alright that should take care of the other routes. All we need to do is take the one route the shadows left." Izuku explained. "Well then let's go get King Lucifer's mojo back!" Millie cheered as she and the rest of the assault team headed into the final tunnel.

The tunnel was cramped, rough and hot as they walked through it while the walls gave off a reddish glow due to the magma in the walls. Something that made Countess scowl in annoyance. "And here I believed I could use my babies." She muttered having tried to summon a kryll only for it to immediately disappear from the light of the magma.

"I wouldn't worry about it. There's bound to be places that those flying piranhas can survive." Don told the women though it was clear by his tone he was very much hoping for the opposite. The cavern started to shake violently and even from here the sounds of battle could be heard.

As they continued to walk Izuku gained a frowned which was becoming more and more pronounced. "You okay Izuku?" Millie questioned and Izuku let out a sigh. "Yeah it's just that when my shadows are killed I have to use some of my stamina to revive them." Izuku explained. Before catching his breath. "But it's no big deal I just have to make sure-!" Izuku froze mid sentence as his Haki picked up something massive. "A power that seemed to be close to Lucifer's level as several powerful signatures followed it.

'What the hell is that?!' The green haired young man thought before he could get the words out they were forced to jump out of the way to avoid being hit by mutile projectiles coming their way. "Well so much for our peaceful walk." Don muttered as he and the others saw the demons that were attack them.

"Great we've got some Frankensteins, Crabs and Backpackers." Striker muttered not knowing the proper names for the demons. "Who gives a shit about their names let's just kill these fuckers!" Don snarled as he, Dolly and Countess got out of the way. With the tunnel they were in and with such a big group their powers were more of a hindrance then anything.

Millie  and Creeper rushed forward, the sinner's arm already a whirling blur as dug into the nearest Frankenstein while Millie leapt off the walls to avoid the gun fire before twirling in the air as she morphed her legs into blades and slicing the head off a backpacker. She didn't notice another Backpacker aiming its guns towards her but luckily someone did.

Bang

Bang

Bang

The Backpacker's head along with a crab's turret and the right side of a Frankenstein's head were blown off by Striker who had morphed his arm into a sniper rifle which caused the Backpacker and Frankenstein to drop dead and the Crab's to screech as it rushed forward trying to crush Creeper and Millie with it's robotic legs only to be snatched into the air and crushed between black tentacles summoned by Alastor who crushed it along with a few other crabs.

The Frankensteins were roaring and firing at the party with Izuku placing his hands on both sides of the cavern. Red cracks originated from where he had touched the walls and quickly spread until the were either sides of the demons. The Frankensteins tried to advance only for ropes of magma to jet out of the wall and pierce the monsters through.

The monsters roared in pain as the magma melted their insides as they fell to pieces on to the floor. Leaving only a few of the demons left

"Alright let's end this quick, something big is one the way!" Izuku shouted feeling it tearing through shadow after shadow as it made a be line for him. "Well then let's hurry up and=!" Whatever Millie was going to say will never be known as a wave of fire blasted through the wall and burnt the remaining demons to ash. Izuku leapt in front of his group ready to defend his team.

The fire died down and a red claw reached into the passage. Everyone got into fighting stances. "Alright you giant red varmint. I don't know who you think you are but id you get in our way I'll fucking kill you and send you straight to-!" Once more Millie was cut off but this time it was one her own accord as the words died in her throat as the monstrous power entered the passage fully.

"Lord Satan." Millie whispered her voice a mix of awe and fear as she was in the presence of the creator of her race. as the sinners and Striker tried to shrink back, not even Alastor was risking getting the sins attention even though at the moment he stood a few inches taller then the sin . Fortaauntly for them Satan had his eyes focused on Izuku.

" Who the hell are you?"

Line break,

This was the first time Charlie could remember her father ever being this quiet. Even when she could remember him in his prime before he mellowed out he was making some kind of noise. Either by taping his cane or humming a random tune, Lucifer Morningstar was not a quiet individual.

So to see her father laying there like a corpse, with the only way she could tell he was even alive was the heart monitor besdies him. 'It's...It's not natural.' She could only think gripping his cane tightly in her hands.

In the room with her were Velvet and Surgeon. Velvet was scribbling away on a notepad while muttering under her breath. Every once in a while she would flip to another page and write something. Charlie could only envy the woman. The sinner was there to be Charlie's emotional support which she could only be grateful for., though a part of her wished it was the other way around with it being one of her loved in danger with Charlie there to support Velvet.

A horrible and selfish wish but one that she couldn't deny.

Surgeon meanwhile was rummaging through books trying to find something that might have caused the demons to appear. "Once is unlucky, Twice is suspicious." He had said. It wasn't even suspicious, everyone knew something had happened but Surgeon was confident there had been a trigger for it as well as the first attack. So in addition to guarding Lucifer he was also trying to figure out just what that trigger was in the first place.

Lute and everyone else were guarding and patrolling the area in case some of the demons slipped through. Highly unlikely but Charlie wasn't going to take any chances.

Turning his attention back to her father Charlie sighed as before doing the only thing she could.

~When I was young and small

I watched you stand strong, proud and tall

No matter what obstacles you faced

you never turned and ran.~

As Charlie sang musical notes appeared and morphed into that of Lucifer and Charlie. Lucifer dazzled and amazed crowds before facing a horde of monsters looking shadows. All the while a young looking Charlie watched her father in awe.

~Even in our darkest moments and at your lowest

You never let anyone see you were in pain

You're my pillar and I love you

More than anything.~

The images changed and now included Lilith. She and Lucifer were talking and the male looked to be begging about something but Lilith just turned her head in disgust and walked away. Lucifer fell to his knees in despair and it wasn't until a now older Charlie slowly approached him that he got to his feet and quickly walked away leaving a distraught Charlie behind.

~So please don't go

~I'm not ready to let go

Just wake up so I can tell you

I love you more then anything~

The song ended and the images faded as Charlie was holding her father's hand. Seemingly forgotten about Velvet and Surgeon glanced at each other wondering if the other had any ideas. Velvet clearly didn't as she gestured to Charlie with an annoyed and expecting expression on her face. Surgeon with a roll of his eyes got out of his chair and approached the princess.

Clearing his throat the doctor spoke. "Excuse me princess I may have found a reason for the demon attacks." He tried to get Charlie's expression whose head whirled around. "You did?!" She demanded with Surgeon nodding. "Yes, but keep in mind that this is just a theory." He warned her getting a nod.

"But I believe that the cause of the attacks or at least the trigger for them are fireworks." Surgeon informed getting blinks from Charlie and Velvet. "Fireworks? Are you mental?" Velvet demanded with Surgeon sparing her a glance. "That's debatable but I'm reasonably sure on this." He told her before facing Charlie again.

"Think back princess the first time we encountered the creatures is shortly after Lord Lucifer launched fireworks into the air to celebrate his deal with the imp Striker. And the following attack came after the volcanos fire off the fireworks as well." Surgeon explained with Charlie looking to be troubled. "That does make sense I guess." She muttered before her eyes widened.

"The volcanos! They're bound to erupt tonight with more fireworks!" She felt the need to remind them. "Now hold a moment. Who's to say that they'll even come back tonight? I mean I hate to say it but it looks like the bigger fucker got what he wanted!" Velvet gestured to Lucifer. "Who's to say scanners won't come back when they believe it'll be an easy fight?" Surgeon countered before facing Charlie.

"Princess my master left his shadow soldiers to protect you and king Lucifer but perhaps it would be best if you sent a few of them along with a few locals to stake out the trenches the demons first emerged from just in case."

It wasn't a bad plan and it would but Charlie's mind a bit at ease. "Yeah that... that sounds good." She stammered before looking down at her shadow. "Hey uh shadows do half of you think you can go do what Surgeon suggested?" She questioned and after a single moments her shadow began to expand and leak out of her own shadow before heading for and going under the door.

Yells and shrieks could be heard outside but the shadows seemed to be ignoring them and went off to accomplish their task. With that done Charlie let out a sigh of relief before looking down at her father. She wished she could do more and Izuku had given her the power to do so in the future, but for now all she could do is stay there and guard her father no matter what.

'Don't worry dad, nothing's gonna happened to you,, I promise.'

Line break.

"Well boy are you gonna answer me or not?" Satan growled as he and Izuku stared each other down. "I'm Izuku Midoriya, a human that got trapped in hell." The human decided to answer truthfully with Satan raising an eyebrow. "Uh huh. And the reason Lucifer didn't just send your ass back to earth is?" He continued on suspiciously with Izuku grunting. "Because that's not my Earth." Izuku told the sin who just snorted.

"Oh so your some kind of alien from an alternate world?" Satan questioned before scowling and getting straight in Izuku's face. "Enough games boy! The truth! Now!" He demanded with Izuku growling in return. "It is the truth." He told the sin Haki sparking of him as the tunnel started to shake as the two looked close to fighting.

"B-Boss remember the job we're here to do!" Don tried to remind Izuku who after a moment nodded. "Sorry about that." He told his team before turning his attention back to Satan. "Look we're here on a bit of a rescue mission. Lucifer is in trouble and-!" "Twinkle Toes got himself Kidnapped?!" Satan questioned incredulously. "No but his power was stolen by a demon called Straga after a blue demon stabbed him in the back with one of those angel weakening crystals."

After the explanation Satan waved his hand. "When you say blue demon do you mean this?" He questioned as image appeared in his hand. Izuku examined the image for a moment before nodding. Yeah that's it." Izuku confirmed with Satan nodding. "A sprit. A pain in the ass to deal with. Can only be killed when it's possessing someone else." The demon explained before looking down.

"Hm. Arachnotrons, Mancubus and Revenants. Not bad." He had to praise before moving on. "So if I got this straight. Lucifer was fighting some demon called Straga when a spirt snuck up behind him before draining his powers. Did I get that right?" He questioned with Izuku nodding.

Satan snorted. "Of course the clown lets this happened again." Satan rolled his eyes while Izuku, the imps and overlords were shocked. "Are you saying that this isn't the first time this had happened?" Alastor questioned with Satan barely giving the sinner a glance.

"Why else would I believe such a ludicrous story? No I've seen this happened before. We just got to get that sphere back to Lucifer and slam into him as hard as we can." Satan explained. "Oh so so is there a certain amount of force that we need to insert back in with?" Countess questioned with Satan chuckling.

"No but my way's funnier." He explained with Alastor humming. 'He's starting to grow on me.' The radio demon thought while Satan waved them off. "Now run along children, the adults will handle this." The sin shooed them away.

Izuku clicked his teeth in annoyance. "We don't take orders from you." He barked back. "I promised Charlie that I. help her father and that's what I'm going to do." Izuku informed the sin who looked doubtful. "And just what the hell can you do?" He questioned. "Sure you've beaten a few sinners and those pigeons but we're talking about a demon with the power of Lucifer. Even in his weakened state there's barely anyone who can match him. And I doubt a human even one like you can match him." Satan told the green haired teen.

Izuku growled and clutched his fist but after a moment and releasing a deep breath. "Arise." He ordered. Satan watched on a little bewildered as the new shadows raised and greeted their lord. "Say what you want Satan, but we're going weather you like it or not." Izuku declared to the sin stated for a few seconds before turning around.

"Do as you please but if you fall behind it's your own fault." He warned before starting to walk off. "And just how do you know where to go?" Izuku questioned doubtfully. The imps and sinners were watching nervously but Satan just snorted. "Like I've said this isn't the first time Lucifer lost his powers. Last time I had to track it down." He admitted before pointing to his nose. "It took me a bit to catch the scent but it's one I'll never forget."

With that Satan started to walk off and continue down the path Izuku and the sinners were heading down. Izuku spared him a glance before turning to the waiting shadows. Head down that way and try to meet up with the other shadows." He ordered while pointing towards the tunnel Satan entered from. The shadows roared in understanding before doing as ordered.

With them gone Izuku turned his team. "Let's go. No way I'm leaving this to Satan." Izuku ordered as he quickly followed after Satan with the others not far behind. Luckily the sin didn't get far and soon the group had entered a large enough clearing for Satan to grow to 15 feet in hight.

They were also greeted with another horde of demons. "Alright everyone let's-." Izuku was interrupted by Satna who with a single punch to the ground caused dozens of pillars of magma to shoot upwards melting the demons away to nothing. Not all demons were hit thought and may rushed forward to tear the attackers to pieces. Satan growled as a giant spiked mace in the shape of dumbbells appeared in his hand.

The sin of wrath shot forward like a freight train slamming into the demons. Satan was ruthless in his assault as he tore through the hordes. Either flattening them with the weights or ripping them to pieces with the spikes and should they avoid the weapon. Satan's tail, legs and horns were more than enough to pick up the slack.

A few of the demons did try and jump him from the back only for their teeth or claws to shatter upon contact or bullets and projectiles to bounce off him. Those that jumped on him were then grabbed and either crushed to pulp or used as projectiles. The one lookers were amazed at what they were saying. "So this is what a sin fighting looks like. He's decimating them with ease." Striker muttered his voice betraying his awe.

"it makes you wonder what he's like fighting seriously." Alastor muted curiosity mixed with a bit of hesitation. As the rest stood there Izuku felt himself getting twitchy. 'Why the hell am I just standing around?' He questioned before he leapt into the fray. Growing 2 additional sets of arms He quickly got to work. His middle left arm became that of a hammer that levitated off his arm with lightning while it's matching right morphed itself into a sphere with metal spear like bones sticking out of it that flew besides the hammer.

The lower arms morphed into fire arms, the left arm becoming a shotgun while the right became that of a mini-gun. Finally there were the top most arms. The left arm was coated in winds that resembled that of a twister while his right arm was coated in ice.

With his preparations set Izuku leapt into the action and started his own slaughter. Freezing and crumbling them to pieces with his ice or slicing them to ribbons with the wind. Electrocuting and reducing them to pieces with the hammer. Or used as pingpong bumpers for the spiked sphere. Shot to pieces with the shot gun or made into little more then puddles with the mini-gun.

The combined forces of Satan and Izuku meant the demons stood no chance at victory and it wasn't long before the demons tried other retreat. Unfortunately they were so distracted by the 2 main fighters they failed to realize to keep an eye on the sinners and imps who were quick to exterminate the remaining ones.

"Huh. Not bad kid." Satan had to admit with Izuku nodding as he raised the shadows. "Can say the same thing about you." Izuku told the sin who had begun to lead them deeper and deeper into the ground. The overlords and imps watched this from a few steps behind. "They seemed to be opening up to each other." Countess stated as Izuku and Satan chatted more and more. "Looks like it." Millie confirmed with a grin watching the two take care of any enemy that crossed them with ease.

"Not surprising. Nothing brings folks closer than blood, death and mayhem after all." Alastor chortled ignoring the looks he was getting from the others as they continued on.

Deeper and deeper they went, the temperature growing and growing as they did with Izuku having to let out a blast of ice cold air every now and then to keep the sinners comfortable. Luckily that seemed to be the worst of their problems as any demon that tried to attack were quickly discovered and killed.

Finally at last they made it where Satan claimed Straga was located and sure enough there he was. Standing at his full height he was heavily armored with a war-hammer in his hand and Lucifer's power sphere located in the center of his armor. Around him were massive drills that were digging into the pools of magma he was standing in. "Work faster! The masters grow inpatient!" He roared towards the demons operating the drills.

"Masters? Who are the masters?" Izuku questioned with Satan snarling. "Let's go find out!" The sin declared before leaping down into the magma as he grew in size until he matched Straga who tuned to greet him. "Lord Satan." He spoke arrogance and malice dripping from his jaw as he lifted his war-hammer. "So you're Straga?" Satan questioned with the demon's smile growing.

"Yes I am Straga! The demon who bested Lucifer and claimed his power for my own!" He laughed as the sphere glowed brighter as the cavern started to shake. "Kneel before Straga and I will let you live!" He declared only for Satan to chuckle. "Aww isn't that adorable. Little Straga manages to blindside the golden angel and suddenly he thinks he's untouchable." He muttered as he lifted his mace. "Well sorry to say but that little trick won't work on me." He declared before holding out his free hand.

"Now hand over the sphere and you might walk away with a shred of your soul intact." Satan demanded only for Straga to roar and lift his hammer causing the magma to start swirling around like a whirlpool before twisters started emerge from the magma. Straga followed that by charging forward and brought down his war-hammer trying to smash Satan's head in only for the sin to easily block the strike.

"Well guess I'll take that as a no." Satan smirked before knocking the hammer away and delivering a kick to Straga's torso knocking the giant into the other side, destroying the clicks he slammed into as cracks appeared on his armor.

As Satan went after the giant Izuku turned towards his team. Alright here's the plan. Millie and Striker, you're with me we're going with the shadows soldiers to help out the big guy. While the overlords head over to the drills and dismantle them. I don't know what they're being used for but it can't be for anything good." Izuku instructed.

With their plan made both parties started their task. Countess stated to twist and expand as her body uncorked as dozens of snake heads shot forward, crushing, munching or melting demons that got to close while Don in his dragon form either impaled the demons or gripped them in his jaws and dug them deep into freshly made tunnels while Dolly provided cover fire for Alastor and Creeper who hurried over to the drills.

That left Izuku, Millie and Striker who warped over to were Straga was getting up and with one punch to the back of the head Straga was sent stumbling over to Satan who grabbed him by the face and forced him into one of the magma twisters for several seconds before grabbing his hammer and managed to slam it into Satan's stomach forcing the sin to let him go and allowing Straga to punch Satan in the face.

"Oh that looked like it hurt." Izuku winced before turning his attention to the roaring of demons as Marauders and Barrons of Hell were charging towards them. Morphing his hand into blades Izuku warped over to the first Barron and sliced it's head clean off before grabbing the flying head before inflating it with there Pop-Pop Fruit and chucking it at the Marauders right as many of their eyes glowed green causing the head to explode blowing many of them to pieces.

Millie was also hard at work against her opponents. Jumping onto the back of a Barron she quickly tore one of his horns off and stabbed it straight in the eye. The Barron roared in pain but Millie just took out a knife and stabbed it into the demon's neck as she grabbed the demon's other horn. After that she managed to force the demon forward forcing it to charge into the some of the other demons.

As for striker he was moving quick and agile, ducking and weaving through the monsters before morphing his body into several different firearms while most often switching between a rocket launcher and a sniper rifle.

Meanwhile Alastor and Creeper had made it down to the drills. "Well my fiend any ideas?" He questioned with Creeper letting out a series of grunts and laughs before leaping straight at the nearest drill. Alastor watched as the insane sinner reduce the drill to scrap metal.

The radio demon smirked in amusement. "A fine idea." He agreed before twirling his cane as portals opened around the other drills before large, inky black tentacles reached out and proceeded to crush them.

The grinding of metal reached everyone's ears with Straga snarling. "Insects!" He roared going to stomp them only for Satan to open his mouth and unleash a storm of fire forcing that hid the demon within the flames.

The flames continued until a bright glow came from within and then a few seconds later the fire was blown away and Straga was now glowing. "Wretched welps!" He demanded. "You've humiliated Straga long enough and now you will-!"

BOOM

Straga roared in pain as he stumbled back crashing through pillars and toppled into the lava. Clutching the left side of his face which had been blown off. The culprit was Izuku holding his new shot gun in hand glowing brightly with Haki. "Wow, now that's what I call a boom stick!" Izuku laughed firing more shots at the demon with each shot destroying more and more of armor.

Straga had gone silent at this point, not dead from what his Haki was telling him so Izuku quickly warped to where the Orb was located and gently removed the orb from the remains of Straga's armor. Instantly the swirling magma stoped and the tornados splashed down into the lake.

This momentary stopped the fighting and let everyone turn to see Izuku holding the orb. "Well you got what you came for now get out of here while I finish-." Satan was interrupted as the shaking returned only now much more violently. So much so that the ground where Straga was lying gave away as the giant fell into the abyss below.

"Fuck." Satan muttered flatly. "Looks like it's time to leave. Quickly everyone head towards the-." Satan didn't finish his command as they all saw that the different passages had been closed off. "Well any ideas?" He questioned only for the celling to partially collapse and through the hole everyone could see light pouring through.

"Perhaps we should take this ex macina presented to us." Alastor proposed as Izuku quickly created clones who grabbed the sinners as they along with Satan flew through the air dodging and avoiding falling rocks as they moved towards the surface. As they flew a tidal wave of shadows flew towards him with a mountain of body parts mixed in as it flew slightly behind him.

Finally they had reached the surface and with a sigh of relief they touched down safely. Once they did Izuku let out a sigh of relief. "So is it over?" Striker questioned as they group watched they watched the pit slowly start to fill more and more with stones.

"Yeah. I'd say so."

Line break.

The return of Izuku, his group and the orb were meet with applause and cheers and along side Satan the imps decided to just say fuck it and instantly started to party again. Izuku and co meanwhile were right outside Lucifer's room and was just bout to open the door when it burst open and a Charlie shaped object rocketed into Izuku.

"THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU! THANK YOU!" She cried hugging him tightly as she spun around. "You did it, you saved dad!" She cried as Izuku smiled gently and gave her a one armed hug.

"Still got return the orb." He reminded her who gently took the orb after wiping her eyes. Slowly and steadily the princess made her way over to her father. Gently she placed the orb directly on his chest and watched as it sink into his torso.

Only to shriek in fright when Lucifer shot up right and looked around in fight. "Where am I? What happened? Did we win? Did I die and go to super hell?!" Lucifer questioned quickly getting a snort from Satan snorted. "Believe me. I'm not that lucky." He sin of wrath with Lucifer scowling at the demon.

"If you're here then this must be super hell." Lucifer remarked snidely causing Satan to flip him off however the king's attention was soon taken back by Charlie who latched on tightly to her father as she began to sob into his shoulder. Lucifer just gave her a smile as he patted her back.

"It's alright Charlie you don't have to worry about me." He promised before turning his head to the others. "I'm guessing I have you to thank for my recovery?" He questioned with Izuku shrugging. "It was no big deal. Fighting demons really nothing new." Izuku waved it off with most of the others grumbling under their breath.

"Still you lot have my appreciation and just know that I intend to make the rest of this vacation even better than before." Lucifer vowed getting looks of surprise. "Wait you mean we're still going on with this vacation? I thought you'd want to go back to your palace after this." Husk spoke incredulously getting a look of disbelief from Lucifer.

"Truly. My good man after everything that cut happened I need this vacation now more than ever before." Lucifer told the cat demon who huffed.

"Well looks like you're back to normal or as normal as you can get." Satan muttered as he stood from his previous position of leaning against the wall. "So I'm going to make sure none of those demons come back." Satan said waving off him. "Kid it was nice meeting you, let's get together sometime and see who's stronger. Lucifer fuck off and die." The sin gave his farewells.

"Eat shit Bullhead." Lucifer told the sin who slammed the door on his way out as Lucifer umped off his bed. "Well then shall we go enjoy the rest of our time in Wrath everyone!" Lucifer declared with Charlie looking nervous. "Are you sure dad? Shouldn't you rest a little?" She questioned with Lucifer smiling at his daughter's concern. "It's quite alright Charlie. I feel fine. Honestly I think I need to spend a little energy."

Charlie still looked unsure but with seeing the life returned to her father's eyes Charlie gave a reluctant nod. Grinning Lucifer led the crew out ready to join the festivities. Though as they were leaving Izuku walked beside Lucifer.

"Hey just so you know we never saw that spirit thing that stabbed you in the back." Izuku explained but Lucifer just waved it off. "Oh I wouldn't worry about that. There's a good chance that the sprit was killed when it was inhabiting a demon and if not then it probably just fled deeper into Wrath." Lucifer reasoned before patting him on the back.

"For now simply enjoy the rest of our time in Wrath and prepare yourself young man. As wild as Wrath is Gluttony is were the real party starts!" Lucifer laughed with Izuku looking a bit troubled.

Just how wild was Gluttony anyway?

Line break.

The spirit flew down and down and downwards still. Doing whatever it could to get away from both the manics that attacked them and the falling rocks. It didn't stop until light barely reached where it stood. Breathing deeply it looked around desperately only for It to see Straga taking slow but deep rasping breathes.

The spirt hesitantly approached the giant only to freeze as it heard "Leave him." It was rough and demonic and carried nothing but malice the figure steeped into the light allowing the sprit to see it.

The armored demon geared at Straga in disgust. "Worthless pawn. Couldn't even hold up his end of the deal properly. I would kill him had he not done this much at least." He snarled before waking over to edge of a cliff. "Inform the mistress we found what we were after or at last the start of it." He ordered the spirt who scurried off to obey as the demon looked down into the chasm below.

"Soon my queen, all of heaven, hell and earth will know your vengeance."

To be continued.

Well that's another chapter as well as the wrath part of the arc down. Not as strong as the first chapter but still pretty good I think and I kinda wanted to get to Gluttony and the rest of the rings which I'm really excited about.

That being said I'm going to work on other stories first. All Manner of Horror, The Ashura, Einherjar Pirates, Class 1a Bounty hunters, Wes X and a couple of others stories. I think I'll start with the first chapter of the Tokyo revengers fic I got planned first.

Basically Izuku lives through the events of TR as they happened with no time travel. with a ROR quirk and Kendo as the love interest.

Anyway I'll see you guys in 2025.

Have a happy new year everyone.
