Rescue Operation: The Beginning (2)
"Heh, All Might, do you think you're the only one with reinforcements while we are?" Shigaraki sneered, then roared, "Kurogiri, teleport all the Nomu over here!"
However, the moment the Warp Gate in the Kurogiri opened, cold sweat broke out on his face. "Shigaraki has no Nomu left."
"What did you say!?" Shigaraki was shocked. The Nomu was his trump card that allowed him to speak with All Might with unwavering confidence again, but now it was gone!?
"We already knew about the Nomu!" All Might wasn't surprised; an angry smile played on his lips. "You underestimated the Pro Hero, and you underestimated the police's relentless search throughout the night. We've located your Nomu base and crushed it in one fell swoop!"
"Kenji Hikiishi, Hiroshi Okabe, Atsuhiro Sako Shuichi Iguchi Himiko Toga, Jin Bubaigawara"—to the astonished gazes of the League of Villains, Gran Torino revealed their real names one by one. "Given the time constraints and lack of intelligence, the police worked overtime to uncover your real names. They're on the wanted list; you have nowhere to run!"
"League of Villains, don't even think about escaping. Besides us, there's a perimeter formed by Pro Hero and experienced police officers. In other words, you have no way out. While you're frantically trying to figure out where U.A. High School. is, we've actually surrounded all your strongholds," All Might declared. "League of Villains, you're finished."
"Ah, you guys actually attacked another warehouse." To All Might's surprise, Shigaraki didn't show despair or anger, but instead burst into maniacal laughter. "Hahahaha, what a joke! We just gathered our like-minded partners, we've already made some changes to this society, we've only just begun, how can it end like this!"
"What a tragic person." At this moment, Tokoyami had arrived at All Might's side. He looked at Shigaraki with pity, and for some reason, he felt a pang of sympathy.
At this moment, Shigaraki actually stood up under the suppression of the Kamui Woods, suppressing the Kurogiri and causing it to temporarily faint. Just as Edgeshot was about to suppress Shigaraki as well, suddenly, an unexpected change occurred.
Countless Nomu creatures, shrouded in black sludge, emerged from the void, baring their fangs and claws as they pounced on the Pro Hero and their companions!
"Support!?" Kamui Woods was shocked by the situation and hurriedly turned his head, only to see police officers who had also been attacked by Nomu.
Endeavor remained below to guard against any escapees, relentlessly unleashed his fiery fists, pounding the exposed brains of the Nomu like whack-a-mole, sending them crashing back into the mud!
This batch of Nomu seemed to be poorly trained; their strength was Nomu that invaded U.A. High School or wreaked havoc in Hosu City. Even the police officers were able to suppress them with guns loaded with non-lethal bullets in a hurry. However, among the numerous Nomu, their attacks were still somewhat tiring.
"What on earth is going on!? There should only be one Nomu warehouse!" Inspector Tsukauchi dodged the Nomu attacks with agile movements while urgently placing his hand on the walkie-talkie, "Best Jeanist, please respond!"
However, to Officer Tsukauchi's dismay, the other side's commander, the Best Jeanist, did not respond.
Five minutes ago, the Nomu warehouse.
Midoriya and the others cautiously arrived at the location indicated by the tracker signal. It was an abandoned warehouse surrounded by a wall, with all the lights off, and it seemed that no one worked there.
"This should be the enemy's stronghold. Should we go in?" Hong asked.
"We're already here, how can we not take a look?" Kirishima pulled a device that looked like a telescope from his pocket. "These are night vision goggles I bought earlier; they should allow us to see through the glass."
"Night vision Kirishima? You even prepared something like that?" Yaoyorozu, somewhat surprised. "I can make those right now."
"No," Kirishima stopped Yaoyorozu, saying solemnly, "We don't know what will happen next, so it's best not to use your Quirk lightly."
"Well then, it's my turn to step in!" Hagakure had already removed his helmet and looked like a true headless horseman, put his hands on his hips and said with great interest, "I'll scout the way for you!"
Hagakure's Quirk was indeed well-suited to this situation, and letting her scout ahead was the safest and most effective way. No one objected, Kirishima nodded, handing the night vision goggles to Hagakure.
With Iida and Todoroki's support, Hagakure climbed the wall and peered inside through binoculars. "Nothing special inside, just a bunch of used support equipment on the right, and... whoa!"
Hagakure seemed to have seen something incredible, and his body tilted backward sharply, almost falling!
Iida and Todoroki supported Hagakure, and said in a deep voice, "Hagakure, what exactly did you see!?"
Hagakure pointed to the window inside, her voice filled with panic. "I Nomu! I saw Nomu! Lots of Nomu!"
Everyone felt a chill run down their spines, and they exchanged glances.
After Hagakure came down, Midoriya and Kirishima climbed up with the help of Iida and Todoroki. They also saw the Nomu, which were soaked in a green liquid and placed in earthen cubicles with only their Nomu exposed. Roughly estimated, there were at least one or two hundred of them.
"So many Nomu, this is probably the League of Villains' reliance," Yaoyorozu analyzed. "My locator must have been mixed in with that pile of support equipment. I think I vaguely stuck the locator to her blood-drawing device at the time, which is why we discovered the League of Villains' Nomu storage warehouse."
"This number is truly astonishing," Iida said worriedly. "If such a large number of Nomu were to infiltrate society, it would likely have very serious consequences for the entire society!"
"Fortunately, besides us, the police must also know about this hideout. Their people will be here soon." Just as Midoriya said this, a large group of synchronized footsteps sounded around them. Although the sound was not loud, everyone quickly noticed it.
Because among them was a giant several meters tall, the Mount Lady.
"Let's go!" Everyone immediately agreed and ran more than ten meters away from the warehouse.
Immediately afterwards, they saw the Mount Lady stretch, put on a nearby truck like a pair of high heels, and then... ωωω.999xs
Her right foot, whose size was unknown, slammed heavily onto the warehouse, carrying the truck, making a huge hole in it as easily as a child destroying a Lego model!
