Scheming Dogs! I'll Say It Again, They're All Scheming Dogs!!

"Next, please watch the clip from the apology meeting held at U.A. High School..."

Inside the small bar, a group of people sat in different spots, watching the news reports playing on television.

"It's unbelievable! Why would a 'hero' be blamed?"

Shigaraki turned off the TV with the remote, then turned around to look at Bakugo, who was strapped to a chair, and began his long-winded speech.

After he finished speaking, Spinner followed up with his own... no, I should say, the ideas he learned from Stain.

"The moment the act of Protection others incurs a price, the 'hero' ceases to be a hero. This is Stain's teaching..."

Uraraka Shige by their actions, also felt a little restless and was about to say something when Shigaraki interrupted her, continuing:

"Our battle is one of 'questioning': what is a hero, what is justice, and is this society of 'Quirk' and 'heroes' truly just? We need to make everyone think about this..."

Shigaraki openly misappropriated Stain's ideas to conceal his pure destructive desires, attempting to recruit Bakugo and Tokoyami into his 'League of Villains' group.

While using the severed hand as cover, he unabashedly rolled his eyes, bringing his pupils closer to his upper eyelids, pondering what words would be more appealing to Bakugo and Tokoyami.

"... We want to win, and you like victory, don't you? And the victor has the right to choose between light and darkness."

So, in the end, Shigaraki came up with this explanation.

At first glance, it seems plausible... However, upon closer examination and considering his previous statements, it becomes clear that his explanation is actually quite far-fetched and not very convincing.

But Shigaraki clearly didn't think that way; on the contrary, he seemed very confident in his words.

"Dabi, loosen their restraints."

He was even so confident that he began to try to command this guy who had always wanted to compete with him for command.

The result of doing so is obvious.

"Hmm? They'll cause trouble."

He was still in the League of Villains after all, and the League of Villains was still Shigaraki's organization, with the powerful All For Shigaraki (AFO) standing behind him.

Therefore, Dabi's refusal was quite tactful.

However, Shigaraki seemed quite confident in this bar stronghold, within the League of Villains' bar base.

This confidence didn't just stem from the fact that this was the territory of the 'League of Villains,' the territory of his 'enemy group.' It wasn't just from Kurogiri and his associates; many others would choose to help him when he clashed directly with Dabi... After all, on the surface, the 'League of Villains' seemed to have inherited Stain's ideology, and due to Uraraka Shige's influence, Stain was still considered a member of the 'League of Villains'... Although he mostly carried out his own activities in various locations, his fate was ultimately different from being arrested in the original story.

So, Shigaraki, feeling quite confident, chose to refuse Dabi's refusal (ω).

"It's okay, we should treat everyone equally. This is about nurturing them."

Although Shigaraki did not directly refuse.

After rejecting Dabi's refusal, Shigaraki looked at Bakugo, seemingly intending to seek Bakugo opinion to prove his 'correctness'.

"Besides, you know perfectly well whether causing a scene under these circumstances will lead to victory, U.A. High School. student?"

Despite this, neither Bakugo nor Tokoyami showed any reaction.

But after a brief silence, Dabi still chose to show weakness to a certain extent... He did not personally carry out Shigaraki's order, but instead passed it on to someone else.

Twice, who was his partner in the previous jungle training camp.

"Twice, untie it."

The words were extremely bland, as if they were stating something self-evident, giving the impression of 'Since I said I would do it, I must do it this way'... a feeling of arrogance rather than confidence that caused discomfort.

While Twice may seem to have a goofy or quirky personality due to his frequent self-talk and ironic remarks, coupled with certain physical gestures, he is ultimately an enemy.

He was even an 'enemy' with a long criminal history.

Therefore, he would not easily agree to the orders and demands of Dabi, who was also an "enemy," at such a time, so as not to appear as an easy-going and agreeable person. This would give his other "comrades" the illusion that they could boss him around and give him orders at will, and make him look down on by his other "comrades."

So, almost without thinking, Dabi refused to carry out Dabi's order.

"Me? I don't want to."

As he said this, he waved his hand at Dabi as if to shoo him away, reinforcing the firmness of his refusal in the eyes of his other 'companions'.

However, Dabi lowered his head slightly and narrowed his eyes, then emphasized the command again.

"Untie it!"

It looks like they're ready to fight if you don't accept it.

His intention in doing so is undoubtedly to consolidate his voice within the team.

Despite showing some weakness towards Shigaraki, the boss of the League of Villains, he still seemed very concerned about his influence among the other group members... It's unclear whether this stemmed from his arrogance or simply a desire to minimize his troubles and avoid being told what to do.

Twice, who was treated this way, reacted quite quickly. While saying "no, no" aloud, his body honestly walked towards Bakugo and Tokoyami's position.

By verbally refusing, he emphasizes that obeying Dabi's orders is not his own will. Coupled with his honest physical actions, he further tells others that he is doing so out of consideration for the "harmony" of this "group," despite his strong resistance.

At the same time, this action also serves to tell Shigaraki and Dabi that I can see there's a problem between them, but I don't want to get involved in their little affairs, at least not so soon.

Furthermore, it can also subtly instruct Bakugo and Tokoyami, two individuals who might escape in the future or even become its 'comrades,' that 'the real orders are given by those two 'big shots,' and I'm just a lowly henchman who can't resist. Don't come after me when you want revenge; I've already tried to refuse.'

In short, it's truly full of details.

This also shows that it would be absolutely true to say that all members of the 'League of Villains' are scheming dogs!

PS2: Let's enter the Battle of Kamino tomorrow, hehehe OwO~~
