The main gate of U.A. High School.

Two 'heroic' teachers, whom Uraraka Shige did not recognize, were standing near the main gate, seemingly having an ordinary conversation, but in reality, they were lying in wait for their prey.

Uraraka Shige was hiding in a green belt near the main gate, silently observing from the shadows. (Image: A table showing...)

And no one stole the image.

Since Toga Himeko has not yet appeared in this story and is not here at the moment, she naturally wouldn't have her own body.

... But the fact that no one stole the photos doesn't mean that Uraraka Shige can continue to quietly maintain his covert observation here.

Perhaps because her last intrusion into U.A. High School. went so smoothly, Uraraka Shige completely forgot that this school, which trains future 'heroes,' is filled with security devices such as sensors and cameras.

Thus, the two 'heroic' teachers who were actually communicating with the security team through a covert communication device near the entrance quickly learned of Uraraka Shige's current location based on the security team's detection and notification.

Then, the two teachers, who initially appeared to be simply talking at the school gate, quickly began to slowly approach the location where Uraraka Shige was hiding, seemingly just chatting as they walked.

Not long after they Uraraka Shige quickly ducked her head behind a small tree in the green belt, and then listened to the two teachers' conversation and footsteps getting closer and closer.

He waited quietly for the two teachers to pass by, without making any rash moves... After all, he already had gunshot wounds to his right shoulder and left leg, which made it difficult for him to move. More importantly, if he made any rash moves, he would likely expose himself.

He had no idea that his location had already been exposed to the two teachers through the communication device, nor did he realize that these two teachers, who seemed to be walking and talking without any flaws, were actually just pretending to approach him.

Even so, when the two 'hero' teachers arrived at a location separated from him only by a green belt and suddenly attacked, intending to subdue him in one fell swoop, he still reacted quickly and used his 'Quirk' to move away from the two 'hero' teachers who had suddenly attacked him. Although his hasty reaction did not allow him to escape thousands of miles away, he was still able to quickly create distance and avoid the attacks of the two 'hero' teachers.

However, at this moment Uraraka Shige was still injured... Although the injury was not fatal, his quick activation of his 'Quirk' to dodge the attacks of the two 'hero' teachers in the heat of the moment still caused his injury to worsen to some extent.

The injury to his right shoulder was relatively minor, as it had already undergone rudimentary treatment; at this point, only a few drops of blood were seeping from the wound.

The more crucial issue was actually the gunshot wound to his left leg.

In his haste to dodge, he instinctively activated his Quirk while using his feet for leverage. This caused a sharp pain in his left leg when he exerted force, making him unsteady and losing his balance in an instant. If his Quirk hadn't already allowed him to fly, he probably would have fallen to the ground in an extremely awkward position.

Even now, Uraraka Shige did not stagger and fall to the ground. Instead, she used her 'Quirk' to make herself appear to be slightly suspended and half-leaning in the air.

But in reality, the wound on his left leg, which had not been treated, was still gushing out large amounts of blood.

This caused his entire left leg to feel slightly weak and limp, and the temperature of his left leg was also lower than that of his right leg.

Even his left ankle was sprained in the process of dodging, and he was experiencing a constant stinging, numb, and sluggish sensation. It would probably swell up in no time.

"Hiss~~~"

Uraraka Shige also gasped in shock.

Uraraka Shige then used his 'Quirk' to subtly manipulate Gravity, making minute adjustments to the degree, direction, and 'flow' of Gravity in different locations around him, forcibly turning his body back and stopping him in mid-air, keeping his left foot off the ground.

"It seems I've been exposed all along..."

After glancing at the two 'heroic' teachers a few times and confirming that he had never seen them in the original story, Uraraka Shige suddenly realized this and began to probe them.

These two 'heroic' teachers didn't seem to be the kind of 'heroes' who frequently went to the front lines of battle; rather, they seemed more like 'heroes' who regularly participated in rescue operations. Even so, they weren't completely trusting of others, and they didn't respond at all to Uraraka Shige's probing words...

Whether it's the front, the side, or any other side...

Uraraka Shige could only manage a wry smile at this.

"Well... do you have to be so cautious... I'm already in such a bad state right now... are you not even going to give me the slightest chance?"

Despite saying that, in reality, Uraraka Shige could even finish speaking, she suddenly took action, rapidly increasing her altitude through her 'Quirk' and flying straight towards the main entrance of U.A. High School. High School.

At this moment, he made no attempt to conceal his goal... because time did not allow it... However, Principal Nezu had already anticipated his intentions...

The two 'heroic' teachers didn't react immediately. After all, people usually start acting at the beginning of a conversation, or halfway through, or when a sentence is about to end. For someone like Uraraka Shige to suddenly act when he was 6/8 of the way through a sentence, while continuing to talk, is, in some ways, quite rare.

Therefore, it is not difficult to understand why the two 'heroic' teachers did not react immediately, but only began to act after Uraraka Shige had finished repeating the entire sentence.

After all, Uraraka Shige's timing was perfect...

What was that saying again? Habitual thinking?

In short, under these circumstances, Uraraka Shige, taking advantage of less than a second, used the maximum flight speed brought by fully activating his 'Quirk' to leave the two 'hero' teachers behind and head straight for the U.A. High School!

Then...
