The invasion... a hunting game???

Today, the top two floors of a hotel not far from U.A. High School have been booked by a group of people with special status.

This group consisted of members of the League of Villains, including Uraraka Shige 'Shigaraki group, as well as the two hundred "enemies" recruited by Shigaraki's teacher.

Uraraka Shige, Kurogiri, Shigaraki, and several enemies with both Radio Quirk and Enhancement Quirk were in a spacious room.

Among them, Uraraka Shige wearing a black cloak that shrouded her entire body in shadow, sitting alone on the edge of the bed, seemingly deep in thought.

Shigaraki was wearing the same outfit as a few days ago, but this time he had basically fixed all his 'family members' to his body, making his villainous style instantly much more pronounced.

The few guys with radio wave-type or enhancement-type 'Quirk' sat down on the floor and huddled together playing some kind of Japanese game, while Kurogiri kept an eye on the time by looking at the bedside clock in the private room.

"Time's up, Tomura Shigaraki."

When the minute hand finally completed another circle around the entire dial and passed the XII mark again, he suddenly spoke to the Tomura Shigaraki, offering this reminder.

"Ah, let's begin this hunting game."

Shigaraki placed the last arm, which he called 'Father,' on his face, covering his right eye, and then called out to the group of guys who were still playing games.

Hey, you guys.

The words stopped abruptly; it really was just a single shout.

The 'enemies' with radio-type or enhancement- Quirk 'quirks' stopped what they were doing and turned their gazes toward Shigaraki. Seeing this, Shigaraki continued speaking, giving the order he truly wanted to give.

"We can begin, as planned."

The 'enemies' who had been deliberately placed in the same room as the three of them threw aside what they were holding and, as Shigaraki had planned, began to cooperate and unleash their respective 'Quirk'.

"We can finally begin!"

Some of them even looked eager to try.

Their goal, or rather their mission, was to disable all the sensors and communication devices installed inside the 'USJ (Unforeseen Simulation Joint)', which is located far from the U.A. High School campus.

"Okay." ×N

Because they were fully prepared to deal with a group of people who were alert but not entirely prepared, these individuals with radio wave- Quirk and enhancement-type Quirk completed their mission in just a few seconds.

"Very good, no matter what happens, we must keep going."

It sounded like a line spoken by Shigaraki in a war strategy game, meant to boost the morale of his NPCs.

These were supposed to be very encouraging words, but neither the dialogue nor the tone was varied or uneventful.

It was exactly as if it were just a casual remark.

Then, Shigaraki turned his gaze to the Kurogiri.

"Kurogiri, Game Start."

In this sentence, Shigaraki's tone finally became slightly excited, full of anticipation.

The prepared Kurogiri, upon hearing Shigaraki's command, immediately opened the portal.

One end of the portal connects to the corridor on the top two floors of the hotel, while the other end extends not far from the central fountain inside U.A. High School's USJ, and into the interiors of various disaster simulation scenarios.

The moment the portal opened, Shigaraki reached out as if clinging to a window frame. The black smoke that formed the portal surged under its Kurogiri, engulfing Shigaraki inside.

"Ha.."

Shigaraki couldn't help but let out a sound that sounded like laughter, then took a step forward and arrived directly inside the 'USJ' arena through the portal.

He then stood still, his left eye, which wasn't covered by his father's gaze, excitedly looking at the two "heroes" at the entrance of "USJ" and the group of students from "U.A. High School Hero Course Class A".

Immediately afterwards, ripples began to appear on the dark portal behind him, and one 'enemy' after another emerged from these ripples.

The U.A. High School. USJ invasion incident from the original work begins at this moment.

"Is Eraser Head still around on the Thirteen?"

Nearly two hundred 'enemies' were all teleported to various locations in this place called 'USJ' via the Kurogiri's 'Quirk' in just about ten seconds. After they all emerged, a tall figure with a completely black body, a mouth like a bird's beak, and a head that seemed to expose the brain directly, stepped out and stood behind Shigaraki.

This is the "Nomu" that 'AFO' mentioned, created in collaboration with that 'Doctor'.

A monster created after countless experiments specifically to counter All Might's severe injuries, possessing strength almost comparable to All Might's current physical attributes.

After the last 'Nomu' emerged, the black smoke that formed the portal gathered again within the 'USJ', forming the shape of the Kurogiri.

Only then did the rest of Kurogiri's words finally reach the ears of Shigaraki and Uraraka Shige.

"According to the teacher's schedule I received a few days ago, All Might should be here today..."

Upon hearing this, Shigaraki's excited expression faded slightly. After carefully observing the group of people at the entrance of 'USJ', he began to ask questions with a puzzled look.

"Where is he? I brought all these guys with me on this special trip, All Might... the symbol of peace... and he's not here~"

Then, as if suddenly realizing something, he became excited again.

"Is it enough to just kill those brats?" (Uraraka Shige was completely shrouded in a black cloak, and his face was wrapped in bandages, leaving only a slit for his eyes to see.)

He didn't pay any attention to what Kurogiri and Shigaraki said, but instead focused his gaze on the group of students on the entrance staircase platform of 'USJ'.

He knew that his older sister in this life— Ochaco Uraraka —should be standing there right now... Compared to the goal that Shigaraki and Kurogiri were destined to fail at, he was more concerned about whether Ochaco would suffer any harm here because of his presence in this life.
