The Terumi Family's...
Regarding Terumi Family.
That was the only way for Uraraka Shige to seek help from the Terumi Family, which was just a little relationship with Terumi Genga a few years ago.
The place where he was able to contact the Terumi Family was the fitness center belonging to the Terumi Family's business in the city where he had lived since childhood in this life.
Therefore... that's right, in order to contact Terumi Family and try to get help, Uraraka Shige returned to the city where Granny Songju and her parents lived.
However, Uraraka Shige did not visit Granny Songju's apartment again to see Granny Songju and her parents in this life, so she was unaware that her parents in this life had already left that apartment.
He went directly to the gym owned by the Terumi Family, to find the head coach who had once helped him...
However, when he arrived there and met the head coach of the fitness center, he learned that the head coach had long since left the center and had been transferred to a Terumi Family restaurant business in another city.
In general, their status has been elevated, but only the person involved truly knows the reality.
When Uraraka Shige learned of this news, he had a vague premonition that things weren't going well. When he actually asked the new head coach to contact Terumi Family for help, the head coach refused without hesitation, which confirmed the correctness of his premonition.
He tried to ask the head coach why his request was rejected, but the head coach simply shook his head and refused.
What exactly did the shaking of the head mean? Was it that she couldn't say, didn't want to say, didn't know, or for some other reason? Uraraka Shige had no way of knowing. The only thing she could be sure of was that she couldn't get help from the Terumi Family.
Uraraka Shige is a selfish guy; that's his character setting, and it's a setting he shares in both his lifetimes...
Even so, he didn't hold a grudge against the Terumi Family refusing to help him... or anything like that.
If I had to describe it, it would probably just be frustration.
Frustration stemming from dissatisfaction with oneself.
After all, he should be well aware of the fundamental reason why his Terumi Family refused to continue providing him with assistance, even if he didn't receive an answer.
It's all about interests.
He was unable to bring enough benefit to the Terumi Family.
In the past, if Terumi Family had provided him with some protection, convenience, and assistance because of his relationship with Genga and his courage in venturing into the place where 'heroes' and 'enemies' were fighting, then this would be an investment in him.
So, after so much time has passed... several years have gone by. Although he accomplished many things and even changed the trajectory of this world in a completely different direction from the original story, there is one thing that is certain he did not achieve.
That is to bring enough return to the Terumi Family that has always sheltered him and provided him with help and convenience.
If you carefully consider what he actually sacrificed for his Terumi Family...
Even when he was young, after killing many thugs from the 'Gray Rat Society,' the Gray Rat Society had already begun to provide shelter for his family, protecting them from harassment by numerous reporters. At the same time, every now and then, their members would send their forces to his family's construction company to sign contracts, allowing his family to continue to make a living.
Later, when he went to Kyoto, the reason he was able to maintain a certain degree of cooperation with Yamato was also largely due to his Terumi Family. In the battle between 'AFO' and All Might, he was able to leave safely, which was also due to this.
Otherwise, a child with no background would have been devoured by those wolves long ago, leaving no trace.
It could be said that Terumi Family was quietly acting as his background at that time.
Even later, the reason he was able to enter the 'Discipline Prison' after a public trial was inseparable from the help he received from his Terumi Family behind the scenes... Otherwise, the death of that 'Fat Penguin' in the warehouse would have made him a thousand times more miserable than he is now... Compared to him, that person had a certain background.
Even later, he escaped from the "Discipline Prison" several times. Why was he always able to escape unscathed? Why didn't the police and the "heroes" deliberately search for this "fugitive"?
Aside from the country's laws and his being a minor at the time, the actions his Terumi Family secretly took were also crucial.
The Terumi Family in him only came to an end when he joined the League of Villains of AFO disciples.
That's why he became known as an 'enemy' from that time onward.
Why did Terumi Family stop spending time and energy on him at that time? Was it because he didn't get the desired return in the long run? In fact, Terumi Family didn't lack what he had invested in him, and before that Terumi Family was confident that he could get a satisfactory return from him.
In reality, the real reason why Terumi Family stopped investing in him at that time and only kept a close eye on him in secret was the special nature of 'AFO'.
Terumi Family and power, he shouldn't provoke 'AFO,' a behemoth in the underworld.
Even though many of 'AFO's' overt forces have been destroyed, or even eradicated, by the current 'No. 1 Hero' All Might.
However, in the shadows, just like the many former members of 'AFO' who still exist, the forces belonging to this entity and the network of interests associated with it remain deeply entrenched and cannot be completely eradicated.
Of course, the biggest reason for this phenomenon lies in the strength of 'AFO' itself.
Therefore, once 'AFO' died, there was no one to prevent the Terumi Family from continuing to invest in Uraraka Shige. As for the few remaining old followers of 'AFO', they were at most a bit of trouble for the Terumi Family's caliber, not particularly troublesome, let alone able to bring them a lot of benefits.
Furthermore, the reason why the Uraraka Shige Terumi Family initially invested in Uraraka Shige was because they saw its potential, and there were also some unusual signs in their relationship with the young master of the Terumi Family (Terumi Genga).
Therefore, Genga's father, who was also the current head of the Terumi Family, couldn't help but think of finding a 'trusted confidant' for Genga, hoping that Uraraka Shige one day join his Terumi Family's power and become Terumi Genga, just like 'Ikyu' was to Genga himself...
Unfortunately, when the 'Battle of Kamino' ended, news spread that Uraraka Shige and others had formed an 'enemy group'.
Especially after learning about the core principles of the "group" of "Wandering Protector" that Terumi Family Uraraka Shige to...
Even though Uraraka Shige was unaware of this, Terumi Genga's father still lost the intention and thought of continuing to invest in Uraraka Shige.
Therefore, the road ahead for Uraraka Shige will be even more difficult than the road she has traveled before...
At least that's how it seems for now.
