The Story Unfolds Now That the Groundwork Is Laid

Regarding the Qu Zhi, Uraraka Shige and the others did not find any clues after their conversation. In the end, they could only prioritize the matter of the remaining members of 'AFO', while keeping an eye out for any traces of Qu Zhi's disappearance.

... That being said, in reality, among everyone present, the one who knew the most about 'AFO' was actually Uraraka Shige, a transmigrator who had read the original work in his previous life and had close contact with 'AFO' and others in this life.

Therefore, even though everyone ultimately made this decision, in reality, neither how to deal with the remaining members of 'AFO' nor how to find Qu Zhi's whereabouts was a complete mystery or a matter of no progress.

In the end, Uraraka Shige finally found a memory in a corner of her mind that had been almost completely forgotten, one that might be helpful in achieving these two things...

That was in the original work, after the Kurogiri had already been captured due to an accident, when the described forces appeared.

Later, it merged with the "League of Villains" to become the "Paranormal Liberation Front"...

However, that's just how things unfolded in the original story.

Here, whether it's Kurogiri, Tomura Shigaraki, or even the man who is 'AFO', they all lost their lives in the 'Battle of Kamino'.

Therefore, the subsequent events will naturally not unfold as depicted in the original story.

Therefore, the force called the 'Meta Liberation Army' has now become one of the ways for Uraraka Shige and others to achieve their goals and resolve these two issues.

As for other methods...

Actually, back when Uraraka Shige was still a member of the League of Villains, there was a middle-aged man named Kurogiri Giran.

Even in the original work, this person is a crucial figure for the League of Villains.

He is a renowned 'top broker' and 'top agent' in the underworld, capable of handling a wide range of matters, including 'information acquisition,' 'equipment acquisition,' 'member recruitment,' and so on.

If you're really in trouble, and it's not something you want to involve the 'police' or 'heroes,' or something you can't openly discuss in public, then going to this guy will likely get you the results you want.

It could even be said that what Granny Gray is currently striving for, namely the so-called 'information broker,' is just one of many businesses this guy has.

Therefore, seeking help from this guy should naturally be considered a solution... However, Uraraka Shige doesn't know whether this guy might also be one of 'AFO's' hidden old members.

Alternatively, you might find help by going to places like the Shinobi Terumi Family, the "United Association" in Yamato, or the "Kyoyama Society," whose members are mostly elderly.

Most importantly, the chances that these three forces are hidden members of 'AFO' are not high, which is enough to ensure his safety.

However, these three forces may not actually know about 'AFO's' hidden old subordinates.

Even if they really did know, how much they knew, and whether they would be willing to share what they knew with Uraraka Shige and the others, are all hard to say... In fact, the probability of them not knowing is far greater than the probability of them knowing.

After all, Uraraka Shige and the others had no real vested interests with them...

They also don't share many similarities in terms of their philosophies...

The only thing that might sway these forces is probably their reputation.

However, due to their involvement in the Battle of Kamino, the two organizations, the "Union" of Yamato and the "Kyoyama Society" of Kyoto, are not lacking in influence.

The only advantage that Uraraka Shige's 'Wandering Protectors' have over these two forces in this regard might actually come from Stain, who joined the organization after Uraraka Shige saved his life during the 'Battle of Kamino'.

However, a great deal of time has passed, and the turmoil caused by Stain's ideas in society and among numerous 'enemies' and 'potential enemies' has long been overshadowed by many other things.

... at least that's how it appears on the surface.

"In any case, now that we have a solution, let's give it a try..."

After Qu Zhi left, Deflagration became defiant and refused to submit to anyone. Heavy Water and Shadow Transformation formed a group. As a result, even though there were not many members in the 'Wandering Protectors', there were signs that several factions were about to split off.

Fortunately, with the support of Gu Yu and Stain, who had been fighting for his beliefs for many years, Uraraka Shige, who was the most powerful member of the 'group' at the time, still had considerable influence.

This was especially true when it was Uraraka Shige who proposed these solutions.

Since the Qu Zhi family had no contact with anyone except for Uraraka Shige, the task of Qu Zhi their help naturally fell to Uraraka Shige.

The task of seeking help from the forces of 'Kyoyama Society' and 'United' fell to Heavy Water and Shadow Transformation (these are their Quirk, as these characters are not given names, so they are referred to as 'Quirk').

The search for the underground top agent, Kurogiri Giran, was directly 'snatched' away by Deflagration...

However, due to Rikizo's previous death, this guy didn't feel a strong sense of belonging to the 'group' and was therefore unwilling to obey the commands and orders of others.

But precisely because of this, Uraraka Shige, who was somewhat uneasy about this guy, specially arranged for Gu Yu to accompany this Deflagration 'Quirk' guy to search for traces of Kurogiri Giran. At the same time, he also told them all the little he knew about Kurogiri Giran to make it easier for them to act.

Because of Gu Yu's personality, and the fact that he seemed a bit simple-minded and not very talkative, Deflagration a fairly good relationship with him, second only to Rikizo back then.

Therefore, although the Quirk -Deflagration guy was unhappy because it was arranged by Uraraka Shige, he eventually accepted the arrangement after Gu Yu persuaded him a couple of times.

As for Stain, who parted ways with Qu Zhi and the others after the Battle of Kamino and continued to strive for his own beliefs, he never saw Uraraka Shige and the others again...

Uraraka Shige and the others did not actually have any way to contact Stain, so let's just ignore them for now.
