"Kacchan!" Izuku Midoriya cried out when he saw Bakugo injured. Even though he himself was in a bad situation, he was very worried about Bakugo's condition.

This enemy is incredibly strong! Based on his observations on the screen, Izuku Midoriya has now grasped some of the enemy's abilities: high attack and high defense. The enemy possesses a powerful physique and lightning-fast reflexes, making him several times stronger than Bakugo at his current level. It seems completely impossible for Kacchan to defeat the enemy alone.

Izuku Midoriya looked at the man standing beside him who hadn't made a move. He had made him watch his classmates fight the enemy, but he couldn't attack him because of Kaminari.

"Kaminari -kun, I'm sorry." Izuku Midoriya said silently to Kaminari, whose hair had been turned into an afro.

A few minutes earlier, the man had switched the main screen to Bakugo's first-person perspective, and then Bakugo's rough voice echoed throughout the room.

We are equipped with surveillance devices!

Izuku Midoriya instantly realized this possibility. No wonder the enemy could hear what he was saying on this ship, and no wonder he found many strangely angled images... Although he didn't know how the enemy did it, all the students were equipped with surveillance devices!

We can't let this situation continue. If this man keeps communicating with the enemy in front of Bakugo, all the conversations will be overheard, and it will be difficult for Bakugo and his friends to rescue Todoroki. I have to subdue him here!

Midoriya made up his mind and lunged at the man, determined to defeat his enemy using the skills he had honed!

Midoriya had no intention of using his Quirk. In this confined space, even if he didn't consider himself, he had to think about Denki Kaminari, who was completely unable to move.

Pressing close, Midoriya threw a punch at his opponent's waist, his other hand already poised to follow up with a left hook!

"Oh? You want to defeat me here?"

Amadeus Mask showed no surprise, seemingly anticipating Midoriya's potential attack. He simply dodged Midoriya's kidney punch by sidestepping, then blocked Midoriya's follow-up left fist. He spread his legs and drew a semi-circle, just like when Midoriya threw Bakugo, and performed an over-the-shoulder throw on Midoriya!

Midoriya was completely powerless to resist and could only watch helplessly as his body flew into the air before crashing heavily to the ground!

"Eh, this is really troublesome..." The man rubbed his hands, looking at Midoriya with interest. "I really don't know if you guys are brave and fearless or just plain stupid. We have hostages in our hands, yet you still attacked us with such brutality without any restraint."

The man crouched down and poked Midoriya's chest with his palm. "You really think this is some game where you can't lay a hand on a hostage?"

"Although that guy has principles and won't attack an enemy who doesn't fight back, I'm different..." Mask took out a remote control and pressed a red button with his index finger. "I'll show you the consequences of attacking me."

Midoriya subconsciously turned his head to look at Kaminari. As Kaminari struggled to shake his head, a surge of electricity came from the wire connected above the chair and spread directly to Kaminari's body!

Kaminari's eyes widened instantly, his yellow hair shot up like Super Saiyan, and his whole body emitted yellow lightning!

After a shudder, Kaminari Denki Kaminari slumped listlessly in his chair, his hands twitching uncontrollably, and the faint aroma of roasted meat emanating from him could be smelled.

"Kaminari- kun!" Midoriya struggled to stand up, but the man pinned him down with his leg, rendering him immobile. He glared angrily at the man, "Why did you do this? He did nothing wrong!"

"Are you a child?" Mask sighed and released Midoriya. "In this society, only children can distinguish right from wrong."

The man walked Kaminari, pressed the button again, and said to Izuku Midoriya in a golden arc of light, "I'm different. If an enemy poses a threat to me, I will not hesitate to use every means at my disposal to ensure my temporary safety."

"Then why didn't you torture me? I was the one who attacked you..." Midoriya stood up unsteadily.

"If defeating you would make you give up the idea of attacking me, then of course I will. But you seem to be the kind of person who doesn't care how much you get hurt."

Midoriya remained silent. If the man attacked him, he would gladly endure using his Quirk even if it meant forcing himself to do so. But this man had suddenly seized his weakness, and he couldn't possibly disregard Kaminari and fight him to the death.

"So, young man, as long as you don't do anything dangerous, I have no reason to be your enemy, right?" Amadeus Mask patted Midoriya on the shoulder and walked to the big screen. "Let's watch their performance first."

"Is that person your companion?" Midoriya asked abruptly.

Looking at the person on the screen, Mask scratched his blond hair; "How should I put it? Although he's my ally in name, his undisguised behavior is really worrying..."

"But that kind of problem has nothing to do with you!" Mask pressed one hand against Midoriya's head and started rubbing it. "Speaking of which, who do you think would win between them?"

Although Midoriya was being held down, he had lost the will to resist. As long as he didn't Kaminari, they could do whatever they wanted.

However... regarding Kacchan and the enemy, although I have great confidence in Kacchan, judging from our previous exchange, only if the other classmates unite will they have a chance to defeat him. However, I learned from Masked Mask that the enemy won't target the students directly, which is good news.

Did Kacchan sense this, which is why he insisted on fighting alone, so that the enemy would feel that victory was in his grasp and wouldn't resort to desperate measures like attacking the hostage?

"Since you have no intention of fighting me, why did you call me here alone? You're not League of Villains of Villains, are you?" Midoriya was somewhat relieved about the battle in the center of the earthquake zone, and now turned his attention to Mask.

Although this person claimed to be a remnant of the League of Villains trapped at U.A. High School, he showed no panic whatsoever, and as the one in charge of the ship equipped with surveillance equipment, he had absolutely no intention of escaping...

Is this a test from the school? This thought suddenly popped into Midoriya's mind.

To prevent us from becoming complacent after the attack, and in preparation for the upcoming Sports Festival, the school specially arranged this training session to keep us constantly vigilant... The fact that best confirms this hypothesis is that the enemy made no attempt to kill us.

As Midoriya became increasingly certain that this was just a test, and as the Mask Man's gaze grew increasingly strange, the other man spoke.

"Izuku Midoriya, do you think I'm someone sent by U.A. High School to test you?"

"Isn't that right?" Midoriya said confidently as he looked at Kaminari, who was gradually regaining consciousness, as he gathered more and more evidence.

The Mask Man gave a sinister smile, "Then, let me show you what you think the testers are doing."

The man pressed another button.
