The Training Camp Incident Is Ready
"Wow, so many people have already arrived..."
As I slowly stepped onto the soil of the cliff, the portal behind me gradually disappeared.
Uraraka Shige carefully put away the small communicator, and then, under his black cloak that blended into the night, his eyes, exposed amidst bandages, scanned the five people in the room besides himself.
"It looks like they've really gathered a group of elites... that's fantastic!"
Uraraka Shige made her eyes crinkle slightly, trying her best to look very happy and satisfied, pretending to be smiling.
However, because of the layers of bandages wrapped around his face, he didn't look like he was smiling at all; instead, he looked ridiculous... and disgusting.
"Stop laughing, your laugh looks disgusting..."
Dabi glanced at him, then was disgusted by the way he was smiling despite his face being covered in bandages.
It felt like seeing a bug wriggle under someone's bandages... especially around the mouth and eyebrows... since the rest of the face was completely covered by that large black cloak and couldn't be seen at all.
Uraraka Shige's fake smile froze on her face, then slowly faded, leaving her expressionless... Although even if she had an expression, it was completely covered by bandages and not clearly visible; one could only see which side had bulged and which side had bulged and then subsided... This is precisely why the insect was used as a metaphor.
"So, what brings you here? Were you sent by Shigaraki?"
After seeing Shigaraki's fake smile disappear, Dabi asked him this question again.
Uraraka Shige was silent for a moment.
"... The reason I couldn't come to see you before was because I had to take care of Stain. Now that Stain's injuries have almost healed, I can finally come over and join in the fun."
Then, this is what he said.
"Really... you're quite leisurely."
Dabi simply replied with that.
The two then stopped talking, but the atmosphere didn't quiet down either.
"Um... um... I hate this! It's not cute."
Behind Uraraka Shige and Dabi, Toga put on the rather unattractive vampire mask and began to complain.
Then, on the other side, a guy wearing a green helmet and a gas mask-like mask on his face, who looked and sounded like a middle school student, began to explain in a serious and methodical manner.
"It was designed by underground designers and developers. Putting aside the appearance, the performance is quite good." (These two interjections are not in the animated subtitles, but you can hear them in the voice acting if you listen carefully.)
The voice is quite young, and it carries a sense of helplessness.
However, Toga paid no attention to any of this. Instead, he waved his arms up and down, expressing his dissatisfaction.
"I didn't ask about that (desu [the pronunciation seems a bit like Dekomori Sanae's catchphrase] DEATH), I was saying he's not cute (desu)."
... This scene was witnessed by Uraraka Shige, and it made him feel a little strange... He always remembered that Toga was older than Mustard... But why did Toga insist on using the honorific form of "desu" when speaking... Was she trying to be cute?
Hi~~ Sorry to keep you waiting.
Immediately afterwards, another voice, which sounded very... rough?..., rang out.
Big Sis Mag, sporting sunglasses and 'sexy' lips, arrived. Following closely behind was a guy (Moonfish) completely restrained, except for his mouth, which was pried open with metal hooks, exposing his teeth and gums. He looked like a Moonfish ill patient who had escaped from a mental hospital...
Or perhaps this is simply to make it easier for him to activate his 'Quirk'?
Of everyone present, Spinner, who was probably most affected by Stain and looked like Gecko, also made it to the scene. After standing still, he even reached out and made a gesture of smoothing his hair, which was seriously suspected of being a show-off.
"That makes nine people (including the nameless extras who don't exist in the original work and are just there to make up the numbers and will soon be killed off, and Uraraka Shige)."
Upon noticing that several more people had arrived, Dabi remarked something that elicited a reaction from a fellow figure also shrouded in a black cloak and wearing a perforated mask.
"I can't wait to get this done! I'm so excited!"
This fellow, also dressed in a black cloak, extended his left hand outside the cloak, palm up, and kept making loose clenching motions, with a crackling sound coming from his knuckles.
Dabi glanced back.
"Shut up, you bunch of weirdos. It's not time yet; we'll start after all twelve of you are here."
He seems to have a very strong desire for control.
Even so, he didn't forget to explain his words a little, since most of the people present were not the kind of people who would be easily controlled, and no one would want to be controlled, even if it was just through words or even if it was just an apparent sign of that.
"Hiring any number of bluffing thugs will only increase the risk; we need to find a small number of experienced elites."
Then Dabi turned his gaze to the buildings in the distant forest, whether he was talking to himself or to them... or perhaps he just wanted to announce something here.
"First and foremost, we want you to know that your peace is in our hands."
As Dabi spoke, everyone standing on the cliff turned their gaze toward the buildings... that's how it should have been.
So... what are your plans?
But at that moment, Uraraka Shige was also there, and since he knew very little about their detailed plan, he spoke up and disrupted what was supposed to happen.
However, Uraraka Shige's words did not receive a response from Dabi. Instead, they attracted the attention of another black-cloaked figure and a minor character who did not exist in the original work and was not described in this story.
"Speaking of which, who is this guy?"
She was wearing the same outfit as Uraraka Shige, also wrapped in a black cloak, and had her Muscular covering her face with something. As Uraraka Shige speaking, she turned her gaze to him and asked a question.
He was clearly present when Uraraka Shige reappeared before.
Therefore, asking this question at this time seems to have a somewhat... ulterior motive.
He probably wanted to know if Uraraka Shige was really the kind of guy who could put up a serious fight with him right now, right?
Or perhaps he wanted to know if Uraraka Shige's identity was important, and whether he could directly attack Uraraka Shige here...
After all, this guy called "Muscular" is, if I remember correctly, a violent maniac... the kind whose mind is full of violent thoughts.
