Ten Days (Comments Received)

Several more days passed.

Regarding the targeting mentioned by Qu Zhi, Uraraka Shige has basically figured out what it means.

That was the guy who had previously 'invited' Uraraka Shige to join 'Snake', but was rejected by Uraraka Shige. After hearing that Uraraka Shige had managed to 'escape' outside, he maliciously assumed that Uraraka Shige would one day take revenge on him, so he simply decided to strike first.

Perhaps that guy thought that by pulling this stunt, Uraraka Shige would become wary and fearful of him.

Or perhaps there are other reasons, but Uraraka Shige has not yet known.

However, at least for now, having learned who the 'real culprit' was targeting him, Uraraka Shige objective for his countermeasures.

Uraraka Shige is a selfish person.

Selfish people often have a narrow mind, so the scope of their target will naturally not be limited to the guy who initially 'invited' Uraraka Shige.

So, Uraraka Shige then spent a week specifically dealing with these individuals he had chosen as his targets.

During this week, Uraraka Shige dealing with these guys' 'targeting' tactics. If they were openly targeting him in front of him, he would not hesitate to fight back forcefully within the bounds of the 'rules,' making these guys who dared to openly want to deal with him more cautious, and turning most of their open actions into sneaky and underhanded targeting.

It mainly consists of the few guys in the restaurant kitchen who are also responsible for handling ingredients, the four remaining 'roommates' in the same cell (except for the youngest one), and a few other clueless guys.

If it was a covert, targeted act, Uraraka Shige would ask Gu Yu and Qu Zhi to gather information for him. Gu Yu would be the open target, while Qu Zhi would secretly communicate with him in secret.

Once the individuals responsible for these underhanded attacks are identified, Uraraka Shige will leverage his well-hidden Quirk to orchestrate a direct confrontation between these individuals and those who hold significant positions within the larger group and are known for their impulsive nature, all within a well-known context.

If these shady characters apologize to the reckless ones in time and successfully de-escalate the situation without a direct conflict, Uraraka Shige will again take advantage of the many 'educational' times and mealtimes each day to do something unpleasant to the reckless ones and shift the blame onto these shady characters.

Such impulsive and stubborn individuals often have great faith in their own judgment and once they make a decision, they hold it firmly in their hearts. All Uraraka Shige needs to do is quietly spread some rumors and add a little bit of 'clue', and that will be enough.

After several attempts, those who targeted Uraraka Shige were all caught in trouble and unable to continue targeting Uraraka Shige.

Of course, some manage to escape in time, but those who do are often able to figure out how they got into trouble in the first place. Therefore, once they realize that Uraraka Shige is not an easy target, they will naturally make a wise choice.

There might be a few who, even if they understand, are still forced into a corner, but these few are extremely rare, and since they already know what's going on, they won't cause Uraraka Shige any too much trouble.

In addition, as the main person targeted in this matter, the guy who invited Uraraka Shige join "Snake" in the "classroom" with a very contemptuous attitude is naturally going to receive Uraraka Shige's "special attention".

In order to achieve this "special attention", Uraraka Shige even sought out Qu Zhi to help him "devise a plan". Through a series of interconnected schemes (a series of schemes with one scheme within another, and a scheme within a scheme with another scheme hidden within a scheme), he successfully forced that guy to leave the "Snake Group" and was "punished" for two weeks.

That concludes the discussion on this matter for now. However, there are some other things worth mentioning that occurred during these ten days, which spanned three days and a week.

For example, Uraraka Shige's growth...

Although his actual growth is still extremely limited, far from reaching the exaggerated level of becoming invincible after only three days, there have been some minor breakthroughs in terms of his 'Quirk' moves and techniques.

For example, 'lines'... well, let's not talk about that.

For example, regarding the 'strike'... although it's still impossible to fully condense it now, after ten days of training and experimentation, Uraraka Shige has accumulated many ideas in his mind. Although these ideas may not allow Uraraka Shige to fully realize them in one go, they can at least bring this 'move' one step closer to completion.

The real breakthrough was in the technique of 'flatness', thanks to a small improvement in 'Quirk' control and a slight increase in physical endurance brought about by physical growth. This gradual accumulation year after year finally led to a qualitative change in at least this technique.

Although limited by its inherent 'Quirk' growth, it still cannot be separated from its own hands, but its size has been further reduced. This results in improved defense, allowing it to withstand extremely weak attacks... such as ordinary paper frisbees, ordinary paper blowguns, and ordinary paper airplanes...

We're one step closer to the final form of this move! Congratulations!

In addition, new people who could be counted in "batch" have arrived in Area A. Some of them entered this Discipline Prison half a year ago but have been in "single cell" until now and have finally been recognized as good-behaved. Others are detainees who recently arrived at this Discipline Prison and do not need to be observed in "single cell".

Besides that, there's another rather special guy who transferred from another area—the skinny guy with the muscle-storing Quirk who recently spoke with Uraraka Shige in the 'special private room,' intending to test whether Uraraka Shige's Quirk could increase his growth speed, and if so, he would Uraraka Shige's 'group.'

This refers to the guy that Uraraka Shige had mentioned to Gu Yu before, the one who might join their 'group'.

Upon arriving in Area A, this guy immediately sought out Uraraka Shige to test whether Uraraka Shige's 'Quirk' could accelerate his growth, and obtained gratifying results and gains.

In other words, from today onwards, the 'small group' of Uraraka Shige and Gu Yu has finally welcomed its third member.
