The incident ends (end of volume one)

Conference room at U.A. High School.

"The leader is a boy named Tomura Shigaraki, who possesses Quirk that can shatter anything he touches. The police department has searched for Quirk registered between the ages of 15 and 25, but there is no record of him."

Dressed in a suit and holding several sheets of data compiled by the prosecutor's office overnight, Inspector Tsukauchi reported the police's findings to the rows of U.A. High School staff. "The other man named Kurogiri, whose Quirk is Warp Gate, is the same. There are absolutely no matching entries. In other words, he's an unregistered Quirk who has never submitted Quirk registration form."

"Not only is the name fake, but the Quirk is also incredibly rare..." The woman in the bodysuit propped her face up with one hand, her face flushed beneath the half-mask, lost in fantasies. "If only those handsome older men were on our side, I'd absolutely adore that type..."

"Midnight! Don't talk nonsense, that's the enemy!" A burly man in a classic bright red combat suit, exuding a muscular and tough-guy aura, shouted at her, "If that guy hadn't suddenly unleashed his power at the last minute, we would have caught Tomura Shigaraki and won a great victory, instead of the reports saying we repelled the enemy!"

"Do you, you big dog, have a problem with what I said?!" Midnight slammed his hand on the table and stood up. "Did I say something wrong? This kind of rare Quirk is strategic level, much better than someone like you whose head is full of muscles!"

"You pervert!!" The burly man stood up, his canine teeth bared, and he growled threateningly, "Want to fight?!"

"Vlad King, Midnight, stop arguing. Inspector Tsukauchi is watching." A thin, wiry, skeletal-looking man in a yellow striped suit coughed twice. "We should discuss the enemy's strategy now; don't bring up your personal grudges here."

"All Might is right. Let's put aside the information about the Kurogiri for now. What we should pay attention to is their purpose, which is—to kill the symbol of heroes." The headmaster, the white mole, chuckled as he stopped their argument, saying, "First, the information from Inspector Tsukauchi shows that their henchmen are just some low-level thugs. So we should consider how he gathered these people, and... whether he will gather more people to attack U.A. High School. next time."

The teachers all fell silent. With someone like Kurogiri on the other side, they could easily launch multiple attacks while U.A. High School. was off guard. If All Might wasn't around, they could still release those monsters called Nomu... They couldn't even imagine what the consequences would be.

"Actually, there's no need to worry so much. Based on the interrogation of the 108 captured enemies, we've obtained their information," Inspector Tsukauchi said. "Most of them are remnants of the 'Seaside Park' gang that the police and All Might worked together to eliminate. This time, they were basically wiped out in one fell swoop, so there's no need to worry about them being able to gather the same number of people in a short time. But the problem is another small group..."

"Please feel free to speak," the principal said with a smile.

Inspector Tsukauchi took a deep breath and said solemnly, "They all agree with Tomura Shigaraki, agree with his intention to overturn this world of heroes."

"Ha... ha... hahaha!" Vlad King bared his canine teeth, breaking the temporary silence first, laughing so hard tears streamed down his face. "What do you mean, 'overthrow this world of heroes'... he must have been thinking before he spoke!"

After laughing for a while, Vlad King stopped and said in a deep voice, "This society is built on the foundation of Quirk. Once it loses control, it becomes intoxicated by this innate power and becomes a slave to it. Heroes are the ones who suppress this phenomenon, the symbols of light, and keep malice Compress in the corners. To want heroes to disappear is nothing but a pipe dream!"

Everyone fell silent. Deep down, they all agreed with Vlad King's beliefs: they, as Pro Hero, were righteous and indispensable.

The headmaster smiled, looked at the sickly man who was deep in thought, and asked, "What's wrong, All Might?"

No one in the entire conference room was surprised that the principal asked the man to be called "All Might." Instead, they all looked at him, ready to hear what profound insights he had to offer.

"I'm more interested in that kid named Tomura Shigaraki..." All Might looked at his disproportionately large hands, "He clearly has the advantage of his 'unknown Quirk,' yet he insists on loudly proclaiming the Nomu's Quirk. Without his explanation, it's uncertain whether I could have defeated that monster..."

"By the way, the investigation into the Nomu is already underway," Tsukauchi Seiji interjected. "With some testimonies from Jilan, we can completely rule out the possibility of the Nomu committing another crime. He will be monitored in a locked room for the rest of his life."

"Jilan? Is he the class monitor of 1-Class A?" Midnight reacted strongly, licking her lips. "I really like that handsome kid. I prefer innocent kids to mature older men..."

"You want to prey on your own students?! Principal, expel this pervert immediately! She's already disqualified as a teacher!"

"I heard about that child from other people. He's not only responsible and conscientious, but also willing to sacrifice himself in crucial moments. He's truly a gem in the rough."

"The other kids were good too, Shoto Todoroki and Bakugo both performed admirably..."

The teachers all panicked and started making their own evaluations of the students they favored in Class A, completely forgetting about the discussion.

The principal did not stop him, but mouthed to Officer Tsukauchi, "Come to my office later to talk," and smiled as he prepared to leave.

Cementoss, Pro Hero who assists others in battle, greatly admires Jilan Jiyu's selfless act. The teacher of Class A's Japanese language class also holds this responsible class leader in high regard. The others also performed exceptionally well in this attack...

Seeing the principal preparing to leave, he couldn't help but speak up on behalf of his students, asking, "Principal, what kind of reward do you think outstanding students like them should receive?"

Indeed, it would be unreasonable not to praise such achievements...

The principal thought for a moment and said, "I have my own considerations. Let's decide based on their results after this event."

You mean, the Sports Festival!

The principal smiled without saying a word, walked to the door with his hands behind his back, jumped up forcefully, pulled down the doorknob, and walked out of the room.

Several minutes passed, and the people who had been arguing came to their senses. In the blink of an eye, Inspector Tsukauchi and the principal were gone, leaving only a few teachers diligently preparing their lessons with their lesson plans...

"Wait, what are we discussing here?"

Seeing All Might still sitting in his seat deep in thought, Vlad King, the homeroom teacher of Class B, patted him on the shoulder and comforted him with a smile, "You're worried about your students, aren't you? They've managed to hold on until you arrived, they'll be fine."

"That's right." All Might raised his head, blue flames appearing in his deep-set eyes. "There's nothing to worry about. The enemy is too foolish, letting these students experience the terror of the hero world in their very first year. Has any other first-year student done that?"

"They experienced their own powerlessness, and they experienced the power of unity... They, the children of 1-Class A, will surely grow into powerful heroes!"
