Yamato used pollen to turn the melee against Meta Liberation, while the Union’s preparations revealed that it had allied with AFO’s side to eliminate them. Uraraka Shige, posing as Death Omen Star of the Secret Room, killed a Union attacker and fought off a Nomu, leaving the battle underway.
Uraraka Shige fought the League and its Nomu with his gravity-based Quirk, then prepared a massive attack to engulf the battlefield. The chapter ended as he launched his Fallen Star Burst and warned Plague Doctor and Overhaul not to die.
Uraraka Shige unleashed a devastating gravity storm against the League and Nomu, then had Chisaki Kai heal his left arm. With his Quirk restored to full strength, he attacked the apparently untouched hospital with a Gravity Blade, and figures began emerging from within.
Uraraka Shige mistook two Nomu for his parents, then attacked the group and was caught in the middle Nomu’s stasis-inducing Quirk. The female Nomu spoke to him telepathically and asked for help, revealing that the Nomu retained their self-awareness and beginning to explain their Quirks.
Uraraka Shige learned how the three Nomu’s Quirks worked and trusted the female Nomu’s warning to escape the frozen state, though the middle Nomu wounded his forehead. As he prepared to destroy the Nomu and the hospital where AFO was thought to be hiding, Mr. Cancer’s silence made him question whether AFO was still there.
Uraraka Shige realized Killer Cancer’s unexplained disappearance signaled trouble, but focused on surviving the Nomu attack. He unleashed a gravity storm to shield himself from ash and killed the Nomu that had sneaked up behind him.
Uraraka Shige found no signs of life in the hospital ruins after his ultimate move devastated both the enemy forces and the Meta Liberation Army. Re-Destro struggled to contain his anger, while Chisaki Kai appeared nearby in a plague doctor’s outfit.
Uraraka Shige and Killer Cancer confronted AFO, who remained hidden inside the radiant Nomu, while Uraraka’s attacks failed to reach him. AFO summoned a concealed Nomu and the Doctor from beneath the hospital ruins, revealing a body the Doctor had perfected.
The Doctor unleashed eight mechanically modified Nomu against Uraraka Shige and the others, confident he could overwhelm them. The group responded with their Quirks as the Nomu charged.
Uraraka Shige and the Meta Liberation members discovered AFO’s brain-like body inside the Radiant Nomu, but an attacker’s shock wave rebounded and killed its user. Uraraka Shige realized AFO might be able to use Nomu as spare lives, then saw a chance to defeat him while the Doctor fitted him with a replacement body.
Uraraka Shige fought a Nomu and discovered that the eight Nomu’s mechanical parts disrupted Quirks after they died. As three Nomu were killed, their components began activating, and the remaining fighters faced the trap too late to avoid it.
Uraraka Shige realized the Nomu’s mechanical components were generating a magnetic field that weakened people’s Quirks and warned Re-Destro to remove them. The female Nomu then activated the remaining modified Nomu, causing a deadly surge that began electrolyzing everyone’s bodies, until Re-Destro hurled the components far away and dispelled the field.
Chisaki Kai restored Uraraka Shige and several others while AFO neared the end of his body adjustments, leaving the survivors facing an overwhelming threat. Fresh reinforcements arrived at the ruined battlefield and saw the battle’s devastation.
Uraraka Shige reflected on how his arrogance had led to disastrous losses, then used the heroes’ arrival to direct suspicion toward AFO and the Doctor. The heroes were left shocked by the claim that AFO had been brought back to life.
AFO taunted All Might and Endeavor to shake their confidence while adjusting to his new body. As AFO approached, Uraraka Shige threw Eri toward All Might and shouted for the others to protect her.
Uraraka Shige’s plan relied on Eri using her Quirk to restore All Might, and she returned him to his prime. All Might prepared to face AFO while Uraraka Shige turned his attention toward the Doctor.
‘AFO’ taunted All Might and discovered that Eri’s Rewind had restored his body but not One For All. When Uraraka Shige’s gravity manipulation restrained ‘AFO’ from attacking, ‘AFO’ rushed to target him.
Uraraka Shige fought AFO using Gravity-Assist Mode, dodging attacks and landing a blow that revealed little about his Quirk. After AFO struck him hard enough to shatter his armor, Shige declared he could keep fighting and prepared to use Chain.
Uraraka Shige continued fighting AFO while carefully avoiding dangerous openings. When AFO tried to exploit All Might as a target, Re-Destro and the others intervened, leaving several allies ready to attack.
Uraraka Shige laid out a plan to use Eri to restore All Might briefly so he could kill the resurrected AFO, while Shige destroyed the Doctor’s cloning operation and used the aftermath to claim the throne. The chapter also revealed the Union’s secret cooperation with a cloned AFO brain and ended with a note about the Nomu Kamui Woods had killed.
Uraraka Shige investigated All For One’s rise after resolving problems at his family’s construction company, following clues from the Gray Rat Society. He sought help from the Terumi Family but received only information about All Might’s movements, and eventually reached the scene of All Might’s battle with AFO.
Uraraka Shige founded the Wandering Protectors to pursue freedom and protect those they cared about, and the account traced the members' recruitment and eventual fates. Kurasu Rikizo, Sakinagi Shushin, and Qu Zhi died, while Gu Yuji, Stain, and Killer Cancer survived with their ultimate fates unknown.
