The Main Battlefield... Shigaraki's Transformation... Exit

Although he successfully escaped danger, the wound on All Might's left side of his abdomen, which was the result of his battle with 'AFO', became bleeding profusely again due to the 'Nomu's' finger being stuck into it and All Might's intense exercise at home. The blood quickly stained half of All Might's clothes red.

"Hmm..."

After regaining All Might footing, All Might reached out and covered the bleeding wound, frowning and letting out a muffled groan. He then quickly controlled the muscles around the wound, forcibly tightening them, which barely managed to stop the bleeding temporarily.

He then stood still, took a deep breath, glanced at Shigaraki and the others, and used his peripheral vision to confirm that there were no students who had been accidentally injured by the commotion he had caused. Only then did he begin to reflect on his actions.

"This time, the 'enemy' is not as weak as before..."

All Might's gaze lingered on Shigaraki and the others for a moment before finally settling on the 'Nomu'.

"I was really... careless..."

After the brief exchange, All Might was certain that of the three 'enemies,' only the 'Nomu' truly posed a significant challenge.

However, both the 'Nomu' and the 'enemy' shrouded in black smoke were clearly following the orders of the 'enemy' whose body was covered in arms.

"So..."

All Might then turned his gaze to Shigaraki.

"Is this person the leader of this group of 'enemies'?"

All Might came to this conclusion.

Now that the leader of the 'enemy' has been identified, All Might's next task is quite clear—capture the leader first.

If we can control Shigaraki, then we're basically not far from defeating these 'enemies' who dared to invade U.A. High School.

"In that case..."

All Might adjusted his state slightly and then took a deep breath.

"Bang!"

This wasn't the sound of stomping too hard on the ground, creating a small dent, but rather because All Might's acceleration was so sudden that his clothes and the surrounding air hadn't even had time to react...

This is the sound of his body, which abruptly moves from stillness to motion in the air, causing his clothes to rip and shake violently.

It was this very obvious sound that suddenly jolted Shigaraki awake from his unease and agitation at losing his 'family'.

"'Nomu'!"

Subconsciously, those two words came out of Shigaraki's mouth.

"Bang!"

In the next instant, the Nomu appeared almost instantly in front of Shigaraki, blocking All Might's attack.

Shigaraki, standing behind the Nomu, suddenly narrowed his eyes. This wasn't because he had witnessed something incredible, but simply a human's instinct when suddenly faced with a crisis.

"So you really are the leader?!"

All Might, through the Nomu ', seemed to be asking a question, but he didn't give Shigaraki time to answer.

"So, this intrusion was orchestrated by you?!"

The Nomu launched a counterattack against All Might, but this time All Might did not dodge or look for an opening to counterattack as before. Instead, he directly stretched out his hands and forcibly stalemated with the Nomu.

No, that's not right, this isn't a stalemate!

The Nomu's arms appeared to be thicker and more powerful All Might's. However, at this moment, even though both of them had their hands clasped, the Nomu, with its "Shock Absorption" Quirk, had its arms slowly but firmly pushed back by All Might.

As time went on, even the Nomu's body began to lean backward little by little, clearly indicating that it was losing ground in terms of strength.

Under the protection of the Nomu, Shigaraki finally managed to put his last hand back on his body. Then, he looked up from behind the Nomu, All Might seemed to be crushing the Nomu bit by bit.

Then, he saw a scene he would probably never forget for the rest of his life.

That was the flame of rage burning fiercely in All Might's eyes.

With a gaze brimming with such fury, All Might Crossing the massive body of the 'Nomu', which was even taller than himself, and fixed his gaze on Shigaraki.

"You're ready now, aren't you? 'Enemy'!"

All Might, while maintaining his restraint on the Nomu ', gritted his teeth and said this to Shigaraki as if forcing the words out.

Consciousness?

What is that?

Shigaraki, of course, wouldn't be so sure of any so-called "resolve."

For him, just moments ago, he was about to finish off All Might, complete the hunting game, and finally return home with the BOSS's loot.

... For him, it was just a game called hunting, no different from an ordinary person playing a console game, except that his game was more immersive and more realistic...

When did playing games become something we needed to be aware of?

However, All Might only wanted to ask the question; he didn't actually expect an answer, because for All Might, the question was more of a warning.

After issuing this warning, All Might suddenly pushed his hands apart forcefully, forcefully pushing away Nomu's arms, clenching his fists, and proactively ending this unnecessary stalemate.

Then...

Before the 'Nomu' could react in time, All Might slammed into the ground, causing the already large, cracked ground to shatter even further.

"Smash!!!"

The fierce uppercut bypassed the Nomu's presence, grazing Shigaraki's face and striking the air.

Immediately afterwards, the air began to move violently again, forming a new storm that blew the hand on Shigaraki's face, which he called 'Father,' straight into the sky. Under the sweep of this strong storm, it broke through the roof of 'USJ' and disappeared without a trace.

Shigaraki was also propelled high into the air by the fierce wind from All Might's punch, before landing on the ground not far from the Kurogiri with a dull thud, sounding like he had fallen quite hard.

"... Father..."

Compared to the fall itself, what was truly devastating for Shigaraki was losing the hand that was on his face.

This made him gradually find the restlessness in his heart, which almost made him want to vomit, unbearable, and a strong sense of unease began to rise and surge in his heart.

"... No, Father..."

Shigaraki began repeating this phrase over and over again, his expressions becoming increasingly frequent, his eyes gradually filling with hatred and madness.

Then at a certain moment, Shigaraki suddenly raised his head, staring straight at All Might, his hands began to twist and twitch irregularly, and even his sleeves began to show signs of Decay apart.

At that moment, the Kurogiri suddenly opened a portal between Shigaraki and All Might.

"Tomura Shigaraki, I think you need to see your master as soon as possible."
