Jilan landed on the ground right after All Might. He had only taken a few steps toward the red-haired man who was still Hamon when he immediately sensed a hostile figure coming from behind him!

"Go to hell!"

A familiar, Rage roar came from a few meters away from Jilan. The target was moving in the air in some way. Jilan immediately realized who was attacking. He sighed, and "Life Magnetism Hamon" appeared on his hand, attracting the last remaining iron sand at his feet to form a wall of iron sand that blocked the opponent's explosive attack. Then, Jilan turned around and said helplessly.

"I'm not an enemy, why are you attacking me?"

"Tsk." Katsuki Bakugo clicked his tongue, creating small explosions with his hands to blast away the black iron sand binding him. He said unhappily, "I didn't expect you to have been hiding so much strength. You really underestimated me!"

"I didn't hold back at all," Jilan shrugged. "I already used my full strength during the Sports Festival."

Bakugo scoffed, "I saw it! You were flying through the air just now, and you even have the ability to manipulate this iron sand. Who are you trying to fool by saying you weren't hiding your strength? Let's fight again if you dare!"

Jilan sighed again, "You can hear the details from Midoriya and Iida. My Quirk was enhanced because I took a drug from Dr. David. Also, my ability to manipulate iron sand is a derivative of my Quirk, just like the special move you unleash after amplifying an explosion. There's nothing special about it."

"Is that so?" Bakugo somewhat skeptical.

Believe it or not.

Jilan waved Bakugo and continued walking towards the red-haired man. Jilan wanted to get more information about All For One from him, but he seemed unable to bear the excruciating pain and had already fainted.

Jilan bent down and picked up the Quirk amplification device that had been broken in two from the ground. Before he could examine the structure of the device carefully, a blinding light suddenly shone into his eyes, causing him to instinctively shield his eyes with his arm.

"Do not move! We are the United Nations peacekeeping force stationed on I-Island. Please cooperate with us!"

Just like in movies and novels, the official security detail always arrived late, only after the dust had settled. Several helicopters flew in, their searchlights illuminating the area around Jilan and her group. A dozen or so combat personnel in tactical gear, armed with rifles, rappelled down from the helicopters and dispersed to control the scene. One objective was to capture the terrorists who attacked I-Island, and the other was to arrest Dr. David.

After landing next to Jilan, the two guards immediately helped the red-haired man up from the ground and handcuffed him with handcuffs that could suppress his Quirk.

"Thank you for your hard work, sir. We'll take care of things here now."

A middle-aged man, dressed in a sharp suit rather than combat gear, who appeared to be a high-ranking official, approached Jilan. He smiled at him and reached out to snatch the shattered Quirk amplification device from Jilan's hand. "This device is dangerous; it's important evidence. I hope you can hand it over to us for safekeeping." (www.999xs. co. com)

"Of course, it's my honor." Jilan smiled, offering no resistance as the other party took the device.

"Thank you for your cooperation." The middle-aged man was quite satisfied with Jilan's attitude, and when he inadvertently glanced at the skull watch on Jilan's wrist, he casually complimented, "Good taste."

As he spoke, the high-ranking official carefully placed the device into a tempered glass case of just the right size, as if it had been prepared beforehand, and then walked towards Dr. David, who was being held by two police officers.

Jilan followed closely behind. A guard tried to stop Jilan from getting closer, but Jilan made a "shh" gesture and pointed to the middle-aged man in front of her, misleading the Jilan into thinking that she was only following him with his permission.

The team members had no doubts, after all, they had witnessed Jilan's conversation with the middle-aged man. They nodded and returned to their positions.

At this moment, apart from All Might, all the other students had been politely persuaded to leave by the guards under the pretext of escorting them. While monitoring them, it seemed that the guards didn't want them to see what was about to happen. Even Bakugo, who was known for being a troublemaker, did not resist when the other party was holding a gun. He left the rooftop with a sour face like a good boy.

"Dr. David, I never imagined that this incident was caused by you. It's truly unbelievable." The high-ranking official knelt down in front of David and said with a sorrowful expression.

Dr. David merely glanced at him coldly before looking away. "Is that so? I thought you had expected this all along."

"No, no, no, who could have predicted that the island's most beloved Dr. David would endanger the entire island for his own selfish reasons? I couldn't believe it if I hadn't seen it with my own eyes."

"If it weren't for you, would my invention still be frozen?" Dr. David stood up.

The high-ranking official raised an eyebrow and asked, "Where are you going? You're a prisoner now. We've spared you from handcuffs because of your significant contributions to humanity, but your personal freedom has been restricted. You must now undergo interrogation."

Dr. David walked into the tower without looking back, and said, "I'm going to see Sam."

"Sir, this..." The two guards looked at each other, then looked up at the higher-ups.

"Well, let him be. He's made a grave mistake anyway. Even with a lenient sentence, his position as chief researcher on I-Island is probably in jeopardy." The higher-up glanced at All Might, who was watching Dr. David's retreating figure, and gave him a sly smile. "All Might, the entire island is very grateful for your contribution in this attack. I will apply to the higher-ups for an award. However... you'd better not interfere in David Shield's matter, even if you are the hero who saved us."

All Might remained silent, simply watching Dr. David's retreating figure with his usual smile.

Jilan Jiyu witnessed the whole scene. He was about to say something to All Might when suddenly, he felt a sharp pain in his heart, as if his blood was flowing backward and his heart was being squeezed hard by someone's hand, making it hard for him to breathe!

Damn it... Is this a side effect of that Stock Solution? I thought the Hamon would be completely suppressed, but it seems I exaggerated too much...

Those around noticed Jilan's unusual behavior. All Might, his usual smile gone, shouted worriedly at Jilan. Momo Yaoyorozu and the others, who had been forcibly taken away from the scene by the guards, also rushed over anxiously. However, Jilan could no longer hear them.

Jilan felt himself slowly losing control of his body; exhaustion surged through his body and into his mind, so he slowly closed his eyes...
