"I mean, did we just agree to help that guy like that? The more I think about it, the more uneasy I feel. I have this feeling that guy wants to abandon this girl who's been treated like a burden!" Minoru Mineta suddenly said.

"What can we do then? Abandon this girl?" Kaminari said irritably. "Besides, you agreed without hesitation, but now you want me to carry her on my back!"

"It's all because I'm too short. Otherwise, how could you have gotten such a good thing?" Minoru Mineta grumbled unhappily. The unconscious girl was being Kaminari's back, while he could only watch enviously.

Minoru Mineta had already seen the girl's face; she was undeniably a beautiful girl. This was a golden opportunity to get up close and personal with such a beautiful girl, and this guy wasn't even appreciating it!

"What did you say?" Kaminari didn't hear what Minoru Mineta said. He was more inclined to find the thugs who had appeared than to take the girl to the infirmary.

"It's nothing!" Minoru Mineta coughed twice, quickly changing the subject, "By the way, what part of this girl's body is wrong? Would taking her to the infirmary be helpful?"

"I don't know." Kaminari, saying as they walked, "Anyway, since that senior confidently said he would take her to the infirmary, the doctors there should be quite skilled, right? We just need to listen to him."

"That's true, but I still feel like something's wrong." Minoru Mineta glanced at the girl's sleeping face, feeling that something was off, but he couldn't pinpoint what it was.

"Run!"

"Those women are crazy! It was a mistake for us to provoke them!"

Suddenly, two people appeared on the stairs in front of Kaminari and the others, running towards them with fear on their faces, as if they had seen something terrifying.

"Hello, what's wrong?" Kaminari greeted him proactively. "Did you hear the announcement on the ship? Passengers are requested to return to their rooms and wait."

Although Kaminari was determined to help the girl, he hadn't forgotten his duty: all the guests had to stay in their rooms.

"Get out of the way, brat!" However, to Kaminari's surprise, the person who approached him first completely ignored him, his arm suddenly growing larger as if sweeping away trash!

Kaminari was completely unprepared for the attack and staggered back several steps. Fortunately, Minoru Mineta and caught Kaminari, otherwise the girl behind him would have been in trouble.

"Hey, how can you be so rude? There's someone behind me. What if they get hurt?" Kaminari shouted indignantly.

Kaminari wanted to demand justice, but before he could finish speaking, Minoru Mineta pulled him to the edge of the corridor. "Hey, Kaminari, don't be foolish. This isn't the time to reason! Didn't you hear what they were shouting—there's a terrifying woman behind them!"

Kaminari paused for a moment. Indeed, they had shouted something like that as they rushed up the stairs. Did that mean the woman they were talking about was a thug?

Just as Kaminari was stunned, as if there were really evil spirits chasing them from behind, the group hurriedly passed by Kaminari.

As the last of them passed Kaminari, he Kaminari casually, noticed the girl on his back, and suddenly stopped.

"Hey kid, let me see the guy behind you." The man was wearing a Hawaii shirt, and his messy blond hair made him look somewhat fierce. His panting appearance made him look like someone you didn't want to mess with.

As soon as he said that, the remaining people who were running seemed to be frozen in place, and they all stopped, slowly turning their heads Denki Kaminari to see the woman lying behind him with her hair covered by a hood, their faces filled with surprise and uncertainty.

"Boss, could it be that behind this guy... it's..."

"Could it be that we bumped into Little Red Riding Hood? That can't be such a coincidence."

"Very likely, it's just a coincidence." The man in the Hawaii shirt took two steps forward, standing in front of Kaminari. A repulsive smile appeared on his face as he reached out to remove the hood from the woman Kaminari was carrying. "Although a misunderstanding led us to those crazy women, unexpectedly, we've stumbled upon our true target."

"Do not move!"

Kaminari, who had been feeling cold all along, finally reacted. The instant the man touched the girl's hat, he slapped his hand away, took two steps back, and glared at him angrily, "Who are you? What are you saying here? Who gave you permission to lay a hand on me!"

Although Kaminari's sudden outburst surprised the man in the Hawaii shirt, he had indeed caught a glimpse of the girl's hidden hair color for a moment, and it was the golden yellow they were looking for.

"Hahaha!" The man wasn't angry at all; instead, he suddenly covered his face and burst into laughter. "It seems fate is still on my side. I was the first to find the target! My organization is saved! Now we can get military assistance and take down that annoying guy!"

The man was a wealthy nobleman from a Europe country where a monarchy still existed. He had no interest in these dolls; guns, germs, and steel were his true passions. He frequently clashed with rival nobles, but even his guns were no match for the Quirk of the soldiers in their respective territories.

He accepted Dark Shadow's invitation to board the ship, hoping to obtain military assistance from Dark Shadow to help deal with those people. However, Dark Shadow clearly didn't want to get involved in such a mess and refused even if he offered a higher price.

However, once he obtains Little Red Riding Hood, who is being hunted by the Dark Shadow, he will have the leverage to negotiate with them!

"Hey kid, put the girl behind you down now. She's mine now." The man looked up at Kaminari and said coldly, "If you know what's good for you, get out of my way before I do anything."

"No, I won't hand you over!" Even though these menacing-looking men had subtly formed a semi-encirclement, blocking his and Minoru Mineta's escape route, Kaminari still stubbornly insisted, "I'm a future Pro Hero, I won't submit to evil forces like yours!"

"Heh, Pro Hero? Interesting. I'll give you one more chance to think it over. If your answer doesn't satisfy me, then there's no future for Pro Hero."

The man laughed coldly, his expression gradually twisting into a grimace. Several men beside him also began to grin maliciously; these were the men he had brought aboard the ship.

Their interaction made Minoru Mineta, who was already hiding behind Kaminari, even more frightened. He tugged at Kaminari's clothes and whispered, "Kaminari, why don't we hand this girl over? We don't know her well anyway."

Kaminari turned his head in disbelief, "Grape, you..."

Minoru Mineta shouted, "That's right! People who look like delinquents or gangsters aren't the kind of people we students and waiters should be dealing with! Besides, this girl is very suspicious. She fainted out of nowhere and was entrusted with this task out of nowhere. Who knows who she is? What if she's the bad guy? Like Jilan said, we shouldn't have come into contact with any girls on this ship in the first place!"

"Minoru Mineta! Didn't you say you were going to be a hero and save the damsel in distress? How can you back down now?!" Kaminari suddenly roared, "You're a student at U.A. High School! Even if you're a lecher and a coward, didn't you still defeat a strong opponent in the final exams? If you give in on this matter of principle, I'll despise you from the bottom of my heart!"

Kaminari turned to look at Hawaii Natsu, his eyes filled with determination, courage, and a fighting spirit; the only thing missing was the thought of retreat.

"You want this girl? Beat me up first!"

"In that case, you may go up, but remember not to hurt Little Red Riding Hood."

The man in the Hawaii shirt took two steps back and gave a brief instruction to those behind him. The remaining men rubbed their hands together and approached Kaminari with eager anticipation.

Kaminari gently placed the girl against the wall, turned to face the group, and, his body crackling with electricity, shouted resolutely, "Come on, who's afraid of who? It's just a fight!"

Kaminari Minoru Mineta never expected Kaminari to say something like that. It would be better to concede now!

Minoru Mineta mechanically turned his head, looking at the girl's sleeping back. A shiver ran through him. He plucked Sticky Grape from his head with his eyes closed and threw it at the group, gritting his teeth and shouting, "Ahhh, I know, I don't want to hand over such a cute girl to anyone else! Kaminari, I won't allow you to be a hero alone at a time like this!"

It was shouted out loud, it was still shouted out loud!

This might be a wrong decision, but Minoru Mineta knows he'll definitely regret it if he doesn't speak up now!

Kaminari, as if he had already guessed Minoru Mineta's decision, grinned and said, "I knew it, you rascal."

"Looks like I can't fall behind!" Kaminari, crackling with electricity, lunged at several enemies frantically pulling Grape from their bodies. "Try this, my desperate attack!"
