"Why, that's impossible..." Midoriya looked at the Mask Man in shock. "Shouldn't you be a special trainer hired by the school...?"

"You still don't believe me, still clinging to your 'I'm an actor' theory." The man chuckled and pressed the button again. "Then I'll ruin you until you believe it."

In the surveillance footage, another building collapsed instantly, turning into a pile of rubble and creating another cloud of smoke. Several surveillance cameras were damaged in the collapse, turning the small screens in the upper right corner into gray-white mosaics.

Although Midoriya did not confront the enemy in the earthquake zone, he had already decided that the man was his idol, All Might.

As a die-hard All Might fan, and having spent so much time with All Might, Midoriya was extremely familiar with the little gestures the "enemy" would occasionally make, such as putting his hands on his hips and laughing loudly. Even through the mask, he could imagine that maniacally laughing face.

Could it be that he's encountered a real enemy?! This thought suddenly surged into Midoriya's mind. All Might was an imposter, and this person before him was the real enemy—it wasn't impossible...

"Boom--"

At this moment, the large screen switched to Katsuki Bakugo's perspective. The camera was shaking up and down. He stared at the enemy, breathing heavily. The sound of the building collapsing gradually became clearer, and it seemed that the collapsing building was getting closer and closer to them.

"Stop! I believe you're the enemy!" Unable to bear the silence, Midoriya glared at the Mask Man. "Don't continue!"

"Oh?" The man's hand, which was about to press the remote control, stopped. He tossed the remote into the air, caught it again, and put it in his pocket. He seemed somewhat disappointed and said, "I've planted bombs throughout the entire earthquake zone. Aren't you going to let me detonate a few more?"

Is this guy insane? He's planted bombs all over the area!

Midoriya couldn't confirm whether what he said was true or false; all he could confirm was that the person in front of him was dangerous, extremely dangerous!

Midoriya, his face grim, turned his gaze back to the large screen and suddenly noticed several figures faintly appearing on several screens in the corner. The cameras were shaking, suggesting they were moving.

"That's Uraraka and the others!"

Midoriya instantly recognized Iida's white combat suit. As he watched the ship grow larger from another perspective, Midoriya had a bad feeling.

Could they have Flood Zone?

"Iida, you old driver, drive more carefully!" Grape was pressed tightly against Iida's body, her face flattened by the strong wind, making her look less like Grape and more like a purplish-red eggplant.

Iida let out a muffled groan from the helmet vent, sounding utterly helpless. "Even I've never experienced what it feels like to be overloaded!"

Iida was currently holding a purple Grape in his arms, with Kyoka Jiro in black and Ochaco Uraraka in pink hanging on either side of him, and Tsuyu Asui in green perched on his head. Combined with his own white attire, this was practically a template for a combined Five Colors team...

Asui endowed Uraraka with Quirk "Zero Gravity" quirk. Her flippers and Iida's shoulder are connected by Minoru Mineta's Grape. Although it looks like she is squatting on Iida's shoulder, Asui is actually floating on Iida's head like a stand-in. Even though she is on Iida's body, he cannot feel any gravity.

"Asui, is this the path Midoriya is taking?"

Iida and his group had already escaped the earthquake zone and arrived at the central plaza. Iida still felt lingering fear when he thought about the enemy who had suddenly appeared at the hot spring next to him.

Last time, it was Mr. Aizawa who held off a large number of enemies; this time, it was Bakugo who shielded him from the enemy. Even if it were just one enemy, he would have no choice but to run away...

Yes, although he chose to temporarily leave the battlefield to save Kaminari and Midoriya Iida, in his heart, he was running away, escaping time and time again.

"If I'm not mistaken, Midoriya should have boarded that ship." Asui stood up from Iida's back and looked at the ship in the center of the Flood Zone.

Although Asui didn't see where Midoriya went, she knew for sure that the ship had been damaged and couldn't possibly be safely still there.

This is the biggest anomaly.

Minoru Mineta opened his eyes, glanced at it, and agreed with Asui's guess, "That's right, Midoriya is definitely on that ship!"

As a participant in the battle, he recalled using the Grape on his head to bind all the enemies together, and his scalp even bled at the time!

"In that case..." Iida looked at Jiro, "Could I ask you to request assistance from the school? This time, the enemy shouldn't have blocked the signal; we should be able to contact the outside world using the public phone at the entrance."

"Iida, if you go there, it should be faster, right?" Jiro didn't mind doing the liaison work as long as she could contribute, but she still raised her doubts.

"Because..." Iida looked at the ship, "I don't want to run away anymore."

Jiro respected his wishes and skated away, leaving only Uraraka, Iida, Mineta, and Asui at the scene.

"Iida, I understand your desire to fight the enemy head-on... After all, I've always been the one being saved." Asui to the water's edge, turned to look at Iida, stuck out her tongue, and calmly said, "However, wearing this bulky combat suit, you're probably not suited for fighting in the water, are you?"

"..." Iida fell silent.

"..." Mineta fell silent.

"... Tsuyu-chan, don't say that!" Uraraka waved her hand hurriedly, "Iida can add my Quirk, first he can float in the air, and then the battle on the ship will be his stage."

"... My stage?" Iida looked down at his palm. He knew that the "Engine" would stall as soon as it came into contact with water. Even if he boarded the ship using "Zero Gravity," his Quirk would not be able to exert any advantage in the cramped room.

"All along, it wasn't Bakugo who was arrogant and conceited, it was me..."

Iida turned and chased after Jiro: "Jiro- kun, let me go call for help!"

"What's wrong with it?" Jiro slid back with a puzzled look on his face.

Uraraka smiled wryly and said, "Maybe he's finally figured it out?"

"Is it because I'm too blunt?" Asui pointed to himself, somewhat sadly. "I know I'm very direct, and sometimes I touch on people's sore spots without even realizing it..."

"Iida's problem is his own. Let him isolate himself. Don't worry about Tsuyu-chan!" Uraraka quickly comforted Asui.

Uraraka knows a little about Iida's situation. He has an older brother whom he admires very much. Iida is a very popular Pro Hero, and he has always been striving to be like his brother. Therefore, he is very strict with himself and often gets caught up in small things.

"Hehehe... This must be heaven!" Grape looked at the curvaceous figure of the Asui in front of her, hidden beneath her tight-fitting clothes, and drooled. "Iida, that third wheel, is gone. Now it's just me and three girls alone... Hehehe..."

Yes, Grape, who previously proclaimed that the Shuangtian duo was invincible, has long since forgotten that title.
