On "How to Escape the Heroes' Headquarters Alone After Being Abandoned by Your Teammates"

On the boat in the flood-stricken area, after Uraraka Shige immediately began her operation.

Given his current level of control over and development of his Quirk, ' staying away from the Power Loader wouldn't be difficult.

Especially since the Power Loader was currently rescuing Midoriya and his two companions, and was burdened by these three students, he had no time or energy to delay him, which greatly reduced the difficulty for him to leave this flood simulation area.

"As expected of Pro Hero, he arrived incredibly quickly..."

After saying something that was hard to tell whether it was a complaint or admiration, Uraraka Shige suddenly activated his 'Quirk' and took to the air.

It then slid straight into the water, close to the hull, with a splash and a fairly large wave.

Upon entering the water, Uraraka Shige readjusted her posture, making herself appear to be swimming on her back, lying flat. She continued to manipulate the Gravity around her through her 'Quirk,' causing the still water surface to suddenly produce slight flows and ripples as the direction of Gravity changed.

He then began to rapidly 'fall' underwater towards the shore, driven by Gravity. Occasionally, he would surface to breathe, and everything seemed to be going smoothly...

However, because of the persistent, excruciating pain from the gunshot wound in his shoulder, he would unconsciously focus a significant amount of his attention on the pain when activating his Quirk. This resulted in his manipulation of Gravity through his Quirk not being as smooth and effortless as it should have been...

To put it simply, the result of this situation is that whenever he surfaces, he is prone to bobbing up and down, occasionally choking, and his underwater speed also becomes somewhat erratic.

But in the end, none of these really constitute a problem. What truly worries him are only two or three things.

For example, could he successfully get on board with Kurogiri's 'Quirk'... After all, in his memories from his previous life, when the supporting 'heroes' arrived at 'USJ', Shigaraki quickly retreated, wounded, even leaving behind the 'Nomu'...

He certainly didn't want to be left here as a prisoner of these 'heroes,' ultimately exposing his own identity.

In addition, the penetrating wound on his shoulder (normally, the power of a pistol at this distance shouldn't cause a penetrating wound, but please don't worry about this in this article, since in the original work...), is also one of the things he is very worried about... After all, he hasn't treated this wound, and can only use his 'Quirk' to manipulate Gravity and use the 'Armor' technique to cover his shoulder with the gathered air, which to some extent prevents the bleeding from continuing and the wound from directly contacting the water in the flooded area.

However, this method can only prolong the time before he suffers excessive blood loss, but it cannot actually stop the bleeding. Moreover, activating his 'Quirk' will also put a strain on his mental and physical strength. He cannot stay in this state indefinitely and must seek medical attention promptly.

However, it was clearly impossible for him to find someone to treat his wounds immediately, and he himself was not good at such things. Therefore, he would have to wait until he arrived at the area where Shigaraki and All Might other two were fighting All Might before he could make any further plans.

Besides that, there's also the question of how he can get to the battleground between the Nomu and All Might as quickly as possible. After all, there aren't always cover along the way, meaning he'll inevitably be exposed to the heroes' sight for a considerable amount of time. Given his luck, it's unlikely he'll be able to avoid being noticed or attacked by those heroes for a long time...

It must be an impossible thing, like boiling water to make ice, right?

Therefore, ensuring his own safety before reaching the central combat zone became another major concern for him.

However worried he was about these things, it didn't change the fact that he still had to get to All Might's battleground as soon as possible.

Quietly disembarking from the edge of the flooded area, Uraraka Shige deliberately chose a location with many trees, far from the entrance staircase platform, and close to the fire simulation area. Although this did not mean that he could completely hide himself, it could at least minimize the number of times and the time he was directly exposed to the sight of those 'heroes'.

After all, he hadn't specifically studied how to stealth or anything like that... so all he could say was that he did his best...

In fact, his choice was undoubtedly correct. At least when he went ashore and hid himself behind those trees, he was not attacked. It seems that he hid quite successfully and was probably not discovered by the 'hero'.

This gave him a brief moment to tend to the wound on his shoulder.

However, Uraraka Shige didn't actually have a detailed understanding of how to treat gunshot wounds; he had only seen it in some movies and TV shows... and he had long forgotten about it.

"... Never mind, whatever caused it, since it's a wound, it at least needs to be bandaged, right?"

With this thought in mind, Uraraka Shige removed part of the bandage from her right hand, partially took off her clothes, and used her left hand and teeth to barely wrap the bandage around her right shoulder several times, then tore off the bandages around the wound...

The movement aggravated the wound, causing him to grimace in pain, but it was eventually 'bandaged' successfully...

For him, bandaging was simply wrapping the wound tightly around and around...

Therefore, strictly speaking, this might not be considered bandaging...

Fortunately, for the time being, in accordance with his own 'Quirk', he managed to stop the bleeding from the wound.

After properly treating the wound on his shoulder, Uraraka Shige's lips were slightly pale, and his forehead and head were wet... a mixture of water and sweat... but he still managed to catch his breath and stand up. Then, he activated his Quirk, lifting his feet off the ground to a distance of less than three inches, and began to fly rapidly towards the direction where Shigaraki and the others had been.

During his flight, he didn't forget to use his 'Quirk' to collect a large number of branches and pebbles, surrounding himself to try to conceal himself... not to hide his figure, but to block attacks coming from afar to some extent.

However, this behavior seemed to have no effect; instead, it made him even more conspicuous and resulted in him being shot again in his left leg.

"Damn it... They shot me in the back! I'll get them back!"

Having been shot again, Uraraka Shige could only manipulate Gravity to quickly change direction, causing the branches and pebbles around him to slowly rotate around him, like satellites protecting him.

This behavior seemed to work unexpectedly well. Several more bullets were then fired, but they were all deflected by the spinning pebbles and branches. Then, influenced by his 'Quirk,' they gradually began to spin around him, just like the pebbles and branches.

In this way, Uraraka Shige quickly arrived at the location of the central fountain, where there was a circle of wooden benches. He paused there briefly, then dismantled two benches, dividing them into four pieces, and used branches and pebbles to completely surround himself.

However, this behavior also made him stand out and attract attention, and soon a 'hero' came straight to him from the staircase platform... it was the B-class teacher with the blood-manipulating 'Quirk'.

Uraraka Shige didn't notice that this guy was heading straight for him. After further strengthening his defenses, he headed back to the place where All Might had fought the 'Nomu'.

Although the injuries to his shoulder and left leg, as well as the need to maintain his own defenses, had caused his energy to be greatly diverted, and his physical strength was being depleted much faster than before.

Even so, the location where All Might fought earlier wasn't far from the central fountain, Uraraka Shige still arrived near the huge crater created by All Might before Vlad did.

Meanwhile, All Might Nomu still fighting the Nomu, while Shigaraki and Kurogiri had both disappeared without a trace.

"What... what the hell is going on?"

Uraraka Shige bewildered; this was so different from the original story!

In the original work, Shigaraki and Kurogiri, after the Nomu was forcibly knocked away by All Might Nomu, still tried to fight All Might. In the end, due to the arrival of a group of heroes, Shigaraki's limbs were also pierced by bullets from the Snipe, and he had no choice but to retreat back to the bar by using Kurogiri's Quirk.

But right now, the 'Nomu' is still here fighting All Shigaraki, while Kurogiri and All Might have vanished...

"Could it be that Shigaraki others retreated ahead of time because the 'heroes' arrived early?"

Unaware of the details, Uraraka Shige couldn't help but speculate.

However, this conjecture clearly has a significant flaw...

"Why didn't they take the 'Nomu' with them? Were they left behind specifically to hold All Might back? And why? To give me a chance to escape?"

This situation is obviously impossible... After all, for Shigaraki, the 'Nomu' is far more important than Uraraka Shige himself.

However, due to the extremely limited information, Uraraka Shige was unable to make many sound judgments...

Furthermore, with a large number of 'heroes' arriving at the scene, he also had to leave as soon as possible. Therefore, in the end, Uraraka Shige could only conclude that something he did not know had happened due to the intensity of the battle, which was why Shigaraki and Kurogiri had to retreat midway.

"Anyway... I have to get out of here as soon as possible..."

Uraraka Shige maintained her defensive stance while trying to stay away from the battle between All Might and the Nomu to avoid being caught in the crossfire. Then she began searching for a way to escape from the USJ.

Ultimately, without any clues, Uraraka Shige was led to her way out by a beam of sunlight shining down from above—it was the huge hole that All Might's Smash had created in the roof of the 'USJ' building.
