On the day of the "IEXPO" expo, people from all over the world who are interested in technological breakthroughs will gather here. Many famous heroes from around the world have accepted IIsalnd's invitation on this day, including All Might, Japan's strongest Pro Hero.

However, he accepted a private invitation, not an official one.

Each invitation allows you to bring one companion. Jilan brought Ibara Shiozaki, while All Might brought Izuku Midoriya.

"This is Island! There are so many people!"

In the plaza in front of Midoriya, there's a fountain with a Ukiyo-e style artificial mountain displaying the word "wele." Next to it is an open-air theater where an opera is being performed. To the right of the fountain, a giant harp is automatically playing beautiful music...

Seeing the giant monster making all sorts of comical movements in front of the Ferris wheel, Midoriya clenched his fist and excitedly turned around, shouting, "All Might! That's All Might, Godzilla Pro Hero! I didn't expect him to come to I-Island too!"

All Might, hands on his hips, burst into laughter. "Hahaha, that's what makes this island different from the mainland! Here, you can use your Quirk without any restraint. Of course, hurting others is absolutely forbidden!"

"All Might, I'm very grateful that you brought me to IIsalnd." Standing before All Might, Izuku Midoriya was still somewhat uneasy. "But isn't it a friend of yours who wants to see you this time? Is it appropriate for me to be here?"

All Might slapped All Might 'Izuku Midoriya shoulders hard with both hands, laughing loudly, "Of course, Midoriya boy, don't underestimate yourself. We have a bond that goes beyond that of master and disciple! So, stand tall!"

Izuku Midoriya's eyes lit up as if he were conjuring up some image, and he nodded emphatically. "I understand!"

In the center of the square, a crowd gathered around the Deep and Starlight, several microphones shoved into their mouths. "Mr. The Deep, what are your thoughts on this shipwreck?"

The Deep, clad in a thin suit of armor that looked like it was made of seafood, glanced somewhat awkwardly at Starlight, who remained silent beside him, and coughed twice. "Uh, I don't know much about the situation, but I can confirm one thing: if I had been there, that ship definitely wouldn't have sunk. I would have had my fish companions lift it up..."

The Deep has the ability to breathe freely underwater. Like a sea king, it can communicate with schools of fish and control them. But even so, a cruise ship weighs at least tens of thousands of tons. The "Voyager," as the most luxurious cruise ship, weighs more than 200,000 tons. Even if the Deep can control tens of thousands of fish at the same time, it cannot lift the ship that is about to sink.

Even the reporters didn't believe what the Deep said. They superficially agreed with him for a few moments, then immediately handed the microphone to Starlight: "Ms. Starlight, you've been in IIsland for two days now. During your patrols, have you encountered anything interesting or memorable?"

As a newcomer to the Seven, Starlight's first major mission was to maintain order on IIsland. Compared to the Deep, who only talks big, this tall, long-legged heroine with wavy hair is definitely more worth interviewing.

Memorable things...

Starlight slowly began, "We all love superheroes, often drawn to their immense power and developing a fondness for them. But not all heroes deserve our admiration. Some may appear glamorous on the surface, but who knows what despicable things they do behind the scenes. Perhaps they use their seniority to coerce new members, or perhaps some have voyeuristic tendencies and often hide in the women's restrooms, swinging their... things up and down..."

Seeing the Deep's somewhat uncomfortable expression, Starlight realized she had gone a bit too far and changed the subject, "Of course, these are just metaphors. But just yesterday, I saw a hero carrying sex toys with him. It's something that's tacitly accepted, but it still makes me feel nauseous."

"Is that so?! What's that person's name?!" Starlight's words were incredibly provocative, and the microphone was immediately shoved in front of her, hoping she would say more.

Starlight thought of Jilan's blond hair and gentle smile, hesitated for a moment, then shook her head. "Although he claims to be a hero, I don't know him. Maybe he's some wicked guy trying to use the guise of a hero to win over young girls."

That guy is clearly a scumbag, so why did I choose to hide it at this time? I guess I just thought he was too young and had a chance to repent... I'm such a saint; I could have exposed that kind of scumbag so easily...

The reporters, somewhat disappointed, put their microphones away. Suddenly, one of them glanced back casually and exclaimed excitedly, "That's All Might!"

Instantly, all the reporters and tourists surrounding the Starlight turned around and saw the burly man on the steps behind them, hands on his hips, with two strands of hair sticking up like a headdress. Everyone became excited:

"All Might, the one and only superhero? Where is he?!" "I need All Might's autograph, nobody can take it!" "All Might, please grant me an interview!"

In an instant, everyone left Starlight and the Deep, and the crowd rushed toward All Might like hordes of zombies seeing flesh and blood!

Seeing that everyone had left, the Deep frowned and said to Starlight, "... Starlight, I apologize for what happened before. I will try my best to make it up to you, but this kind of thing shouldn't be brought up in public. It's not only detrimental to unity, but I believe the Homelander wouldn't want to see it either."

"Ha, I've already been lenient by not revealing your name in public. What do you expect me to say? When you were naive and inexperienced, you were fooled by a bottom-ranked guy, thinking he was the leader of the Seven, and you even knelt down before him to avoid being kicked out?" Starlight pointed heavily at the Deep fish-scale breastplate. "Being fooled by a piece of trash like you is the greatest humiliation of my life."

After saying that, Starlight didn't give the Deep a chance to speak and turned to leave the square.

"Ha... ha... finally, I've gotten rid of those fans..." Izuku Midoriya panted, his hands on his knees. He could handle powerful criminals and undergo rigorous training, but this was the first time he'd ever seen a citizen suddenly surround him. However, he was still happy to see his idol so popular.

Midoriya smiled wryly, "As expected of All Might, he has an extremely high level of fame even in a place like this."

All Might, his All Might covered in lipstick marks, turned around, wiped his face, and gave an awkward yet dignified smile, "I didn't expect to be held up for so long. I almost missed our appointment."

They were now on a garden path near the residential area, where most of the people were family members who had come to live on the island with the scientists. Although they couldn't hide their excitement at seeing All Might, they weren't as frenzied as the fans near the square; they just watched All Might from a distance.

"Midoriya, you need to be careful. I haven't told my friend about that yet, so please keep it a secret for me."

That matter... Izuku Midoriya's heart tightened. So it was something so important that even All Might's friends couldn't be told...

"Uncle Might!"

On the high steps, a tall girl riding a bouncy unicorn waved excitedly at All Might.

"Is that All Might's friend? He looks quite young..." Midoriya couldn't help but think.
