"Are we really going to let them go?" The guard, his foot still planted on Kaminari's back, frowned and said, "He knocked down our comrade."

"We don't have much time left, there's no need to cause trouble. Who knows how many guys will block our way? They won't hold back when they attack us. Besides... these two brats are students of U.A. High School. Do you want to take All Might's wrath on behalf of my family?" the young man retorted, then turned and walked away with Little Red Riding Hood on his back.

Although he was young and arrogant, he had no intention of making an enemy of All Might.

"However, it will be difficult if this guy catches up. We'll have to control him..." The young man looked at Kaminari's defiant eyes, tilted his head, and looked around at the surroundings. His gaze lingered on a nearby locked fire hydrant box.

He walked to the fire hydrant box, took off his Hawaii shirt to cover his elbows, and without hesitation rammed into the glass cabinet!

He pulled a fire axe from the shattered cabinet, used the sharp tip to slice open a long water bag, and tossed it to the guard. "Use this to tie them both up. Not too tight, just enough so they can't break free for a short time. This ship could sink at any moment, and it would be a real problem if a future hero were to perish at sea because of me."

The guard was silent for a moment, then removed his foot from Kaminari's back, picked up the water hose, and tied Kaminari and Minoru Mineta together back to back.

As he tied them up, he said, "What about my men?"

"They can't even beat two brats, let them sleep here and learn their lesson."

At this moment, the young man was tying the girl behind his back so she wouldn't hinder his movements. Then, he picked up a fire axe, rubbing it in his hand while muttering to himself, "If any guy dares to stop me, I don't mind letting this axe see blood..."

The young man's expression remained calm at this moment, but a cruel smile quickly appeared on his lips, which terrified Minoru Mineta, who happened to see it. He instantly felt a chill and abandoned any thought of resisting.

The young man carried the girl away, while Kaminari could only stare blankly at their departing figures.

After all, he was tied up and had no way to fight back.

By this time, Minoru Mineta had recovered. After catching his breath, he said dejectedly, "Kaminari, I'm sorry, I was lost in thought for a while..."

"It's none of your business," Kaminari said through gritted teeth. "Damn it, if it weren't for that inexplicable scream, how could I have been defeated!"

Kaminari had the upper hand before; if that sound hadn't affected his mind, he wouldn't be tied up now!

"That girl's been taken away..." Minoru Mineta said after a moment of silence. "As expected, we shouldn't have done anything unnecessary. Now we're tied up too, and we can't go anywhere..."

After his anger Kaminari regained his composure and began to think. It should be said that, with the two of them tied back to back, they could do nothing but think.

"That guy just said that a lot of people are after her, and that we've done all the work for someone else..." Kaminari said doubtfully, "Could it be that the girl is of very high status?"

"Maybe she's a princess from some country, but so what? We're tied up now, so we've missed our chance to be heroes!" Minoru Mineta shouted. "Help! Is there anyone who can save us?!"

"Stop shouting, no one will come!" Kaminari replied irritably, and began struggling to break free from the water hose.

Kaminari the fourth floor, which consists of less frequently used public areas. The tourists have all returned to their rooms upstairs due to the earlier announcement. Apart from those who have their own schemes, like the young man from before, there is no one else around. Even if Minoru Mineta hoarse, no one will respond.

Instead of shouting, it's better to try to save yourself now. You know, that guy seemed to have told his guards not to tie him too tightly, so there's probably a chance he can break free.

However, perhaps a miracle occurred, and someone actually responded to Minoru Mineta's call.

"Hey, come quick! I heard someone screaming for help!" Suddenly, a clear female voice rang out, a very familiar female voice.

Soon, a figure appeared at the top of the stairs. It was Ueno. She asked, "Kaminari and Mineta? What are you two doing here, and why are you tied up?"

Denki Kaminari replied without thinking, "What are you doing here, Ueno -senpai? Shouldn't you be in your room right now?"

Although Jilan doesn't usually show much respect to Ueno and has never used honorifics when addressing Ueno doesn't seem to mind. However, Minoru Mineta and Denki Kaminari are still used to using honorifics when addressing older students.

"Don't answer questions with questions, you idiots! I'm the one asking you questions now... Ouch, that hurts!" Ueno hadn't finished his angry words when he suddenly yelled and clutched his head.

Erina Nakiri came down the stairs, holding something that looked like a kitchen spoon in her hand. She had just used this to hit Ueno.

Nakiri glanced at the several people lying unconscious on the ground, scrambling around, and the two bound together. She immediately understood what had happened. "Kaminari -kun and Mineta- kun were attacked?"

"That's it!" Minoru Mineta nodded frantically, expressing his gratitude, "It's so great to have met you guys at this time!"

Not only was he rescued, but he also ran into someone he knew. Minoru Mineta almost wanted to burst into tears!

"Although I want to ask you some questions, let's get you out of here first." Nakiri looked at Ueno. "Now's your time to shine."

Ueno was wearing a bronze-colored device that resembled an exoskeleton, which added about ten centimeters to her height.

Kaminari noticed Ueno's unusual attire and couldn't help but ask, "Ueno- senpai, what's with your outfit...?"

"Hehe, this is my secret weapon!" Ueno chuckled, stretching out his arm toward the middle of the rope binding Kaminari and Mineta. Amidst the hissing sound of steam, a small cylindrical object emerged from Ueno's arm.

"Watch out!" As Ueno spoke, a straight beam of flame, like a beam of light, appeared from the round hole, instantly slicing the water hose in half and separating the two people. However, flames still roared from the cut part of the water hose!

"What the hell is this?!" Although the two regained their freedom, their backs instantly felt a burning sensation. Flames engulfed their clothes. Minoru Mineta screamed and jumped up, rolling on the ground, "Help! I'm melting into Grape Juice!"

"Ueno, you idiot! Why did you use the burn mode? Use the blade cutting mode properly!" Nakiri was also startled. Seeing that the fire hydrant box on the side was broken, he took out a fire extinguisher, pulled the lever, and sprayed it at the Grape rolling on the ground!
