Chapter 28
Ultimately, the Killer Cancer convinced the other Meta Liberation cadres.
The way to persuade someone is simple: present the facts and reason with them.
After all, the way he found 'AFO' meant that he had to find it himself.
Given this Meta Liberation, why would those cadres still refuse to let him in? Why wouldn't they take him along?
However, even with the existence of this Killer Cancer, finding 'AFO' is by no means an easy task.
In particular, finding his trail without alerting 'AFO' is almost an impossible task.
Five days have passed slowly, and Uraraka Shige and the others have embarked on their journey to find 'AFO', and have been traveling on this route for three days.
They were now parked three miles from 'AFO', inside a hotel that looked quite nice.
Is that all?
The Killer Cancer turned to signal to the people around him.
"That's right, that's good. With the power of 'AFO,' if we just barge in like this, we'll probably only repeat your mistake."
"That's what Uraraka Shige said, dressed as the 'Death Omen Star'."
Having suffered losses at the hands of 'AFO' and its forces more than once, he is now extremely cautious when dealing with matters related to 'AFO'.
So at this moment, he said that sentence again.
"We still need to prepare; our preparations are not yet complete."
Since Uraraka Shige has said so, and none of the 'Meta Liberation' members around him have any objections, then only Killer Cancer remains, and he naturally won't cause any more trouble.
Then the room suddenly fell silent.
Uraraka Shige was not satisfied with the quiet atmosphere, because he felt that now was not the time to enjoy peace and quiet.
"It seems everyone agrees, so let's leave it at that for now... We'll need your help with the preparations."
"First, we need a lot of helpers, as well as ample weapons and equipment, and preferably a large number of 'works of art' to be used as a precaution or for finishing things off, and then..."
After some discussion, a day passed. As night fell and the sun set, everyone returned to their respective rooms, and the night quickly went by.
The next morning, Uraraka Shige carried Eri to the downstairs restaurant early. After breakfast, the 'Meta Liberation' executives said goodbye to him one by one.
They needed to make so-called preparations, find so-called helpers, and prepare some so-called weapons and equipment.
The Killer Cancer, didn't act with the group of 'Meta Liberation' executives, but he didn't stay either. He had his own preparations to make. After all, he had been relentlessly and persistently assassinating 'AFO' for over a century. Even though each attempt ended in failure, he had still left behind a considerable legacy over the past hundred years.
Neither Uraraka Shige nor the 'Meta Liberation' executives had any intention of keeping him here... In fact, they couldn't keep him anyway. Judging solely from the stealth techniques used by the Killer Cancer, keeping him would be extremely difficult.
Familiar faces gradually left, leaving only Uraraka Shige still in the hotel.
He couldn't stay put any longer, so after having lunch, he left the hotel and planned to explore the city.
He also had other things to do and other preparations to make.
However, as he walked through a certain alley, he suddenly changed his mind after seeing someone.
It was Chisaki Kai, the one who abandoned him and Eri and left early, the former young master of the Shie Hassaikai.
His 'Quirk' and the power he possesses are exactly the kind of support that Uraraka Shige desperately needs at this moment.
If his 'Quirk' exists, it would be a very suitable choice whether used for infiltration, sabotage, increasing combat capabilities, or as a foreshadowing, a surprise force, or a trump card.
What really appealed to Uraraka Shige was that, given this 'young master's' 'Quirk,' he could easily take on more than one role at the same time. He could be used to infiltrate and sabotage, then used as a prelude, and at the right moment, transformed into a surprise attack force. In the end, if it was necessary to deal with the 'Meta Liberation,' he could even become one of Uraraka Shige's trump cards.
However, it is clear that while this approach would fully extract the value from Chisaki Kai, it would not be an easy task for Uraraka Shige.
Therefore, after Uraraka Shige ultimately chose to abandon this somewhat unrealistic one.
Moreover, his most important task at this moment was not to figure out how to use this 'young master,' but to win him over to his side... and to properly question this guy about why he abandoned him and ran away.
Although Uraraka Shige himself wasn't actually harmed, he's very unhappy now.
Chisaki Kai walked through the alley, carrying a slightly warm bento box in his arms.
After rescuing the team leader from the sanatorium not long ago, he quickly found a safe enough place and used his 'Quirk' to wake the team leader from his coma.
Then, quite naturally, the team leader, after learning what he had done and the consequences, did not forgive him.
But the team leader didn't blame him. He just sighed helplessly like an old father, never mentioning that he was forgiving him. Instead, he told him that he should bear the consequences of his own mistakes.
He let Chisaki Kai choose for himself whether to start over or rewrite the ending.
Chisaki Kai chose the latter, and his colleague also wanted to take on the responsibility of caring for him as his adoptive father.
He's not doing so well now, though, because most of those who were willing to follow him have lost their lives, and the rest have either been abandoned by him or had only a purely self-serving relationship with him.
The leader of the Tōdō Group, who was also the head of the Shie Hassaikai and Chisaki Kai's adoptive father, refused to offer Chisaki Kai any further assistance.
So now Chisaki Kai is left to wander around alone, striving to realize his obsession and the Commander-in-Chief's ideals while also taking care of his adoptive father.
Uraraka Shige, relying on his 'Quirk,' quietly followed Chisaki Kai. He was unaware of Chisaki Kai's experiences during this time, but he already had his own plans in mind.
He still remembered exactly why Chisaki Kai and he had broken into that sanatorium. Seeing Chisaki Kai's hurried manner and how well he protected the piece of bread, he could roughly guess that the person Chisaki Kai wanted to save back then had now become Chisaki Kai's new weakness.
