**************

Class 1-A had just returned from their one-week internships, and while the students were eager to share their experiences, the mood in the classroom was somber. The news of the League of Villains and Hero Killer exposing Bayen Pharmaceutical and the government's involvement had shaken the entire country. With public unrest and a demand for the Prime Minister's resignation, the future of hero society seemed uncertain.

As the students gathered, they couldn't help but discuss the recent events. Some were still in shock, while others were excited about their new experiences and the power surge they felt during their internships.

Uraraka, trying to keep the conversation light, turned to Midoriya. "So, Deku, how was your internship? Did you learn any new techniques?"

Midoriya nodded, his expression thoughtful. "Yeah, I had a great experience working with Gran Torino. I learned a lot about controlling my power and using it more efficiently. But it's hard to ignore what's happening in the country right now."

Iida, who had been talking with Mineta, chimed in. "It's a difficult situation, but we must remain focused on our training and becoming better heroes. That's the best way we can help the people who need us."

Across the room, some of the students who had been at the scene of the Bayen Pharmaceutical incident were quieter than usual. Momo, Itsuka, and Jiro had all been present during the shocking revelation, and their classmates could tell they were affected by the events.

Hagakure, her voice full of concern, asked, "Hey, Jiro, how are you feeling? You look a bit down."

Jiro looked up, her eyes reflecting a mix of sadness and determination. "It was... overwhelming, to say the least. But it's made me even more resolved to become a better hero."

The conversation continued, with some students trying to lighten the mood by sharing their experiences during their internships. Shoji, who had interned with Kamui Woods, spoke animatedly about learning to use his Dupli-Arms more effectively.

However, the general atmosphere in the room remained tense and depressed. Due to League of Villains being the ones who saved the children, the heroes' reputations had taken a severe hit. The students couldn't help but feel a mixture of anger and helplessness at the situation.

Mokami, who had interned in Egypt with the hero Sahar, sat silently next to his twin sister, Momo. He offered her quiet support, knowing that she was struggling with the aftermath of the incident. His mature and calm demeanor provided a comforting presence for his classmates.

As the students continued to share their experiences, Mineta asked, "Hey, Bakugou, how was your internship with Endeavor? Was it as intense as we all imagined?"

Bakugou scowled, his anger simmering beneath the surface. "Endeavor's a powerful hero, and I learned a lot. But it doesn't change the fact that everything is falling apart. We need to become stronger, or else we'll never be able to fix this mess."

Todoroki, who had interned in Australia with Heat-Man, added, "Bakugou's right. The hero society needs to change, and we can be part of that change. It won't be easy, but we have to try."

Aizawa at this time opened the door and his entrance broke the discussion. Students sat on their seats, focused on their homeroom teacher.

Aizawa stood up from his desk, his eyes locked onto his students. His voice was firm, but beneath it, a subtle anger simmered. "Listen, everyone. I know that recent events have left you all feeling uncertain about the future of hero society. But remember, you are the future heroes, and you should learn from current times. Learn how to be independent, and use your own judgment when faced with difficult situations."

Aizawa continued, addressing Momo, Jiro, Itsuka, and Bakugou directly. "Although you were present at the scene, there was nothing you could have done. Even experienced pro heroes were rendered helpless in that situation. Any action you could have taken would have put the children in danger. Mirko, Endeavor, Ryukyu, and Edgeshot – some of the biggest names in the country – chose to watch and wait. That should tell you something about the complexity of the situation."

Mokami listened intently, picking up on the underlying messages in Aizawa's words. He could tell that Aizawa was encouraging the students to think critically about the role of heroes in society and the potential pitfalls of being too closely tied to the government.

He noticed the carefully chosen words in Aizawa's speech, recognizing that his teacher was subtly implying the importance of heroes being able to operate autonomously, rather than being bound by government or corporate interests.

"I want you all to know that I am proud of you," Aizawa continued. "You faced a difficult and unprecedented situation, and you made the best decisions you could under the circumstances. As future heroes, it's essential that you learn from these experiences and grow stronger, both as individuals and as a team."

He paused for a moment, allowing the weight of his words to sink in before continuing. "The world is changing, and so must the hero society. It's up to all of you to shape the future and to ensure that the mistakes of the past are not repeated."

Aizawa's tone grew more resolute, and Mokami could sense the conviction behind his words. "You are all capable of great things, and I have no doubt that you will become the heroes that this world needs. Stay true to your values, trust your instincts, and remember that you always have the support of your classmates and teachers."

The room fell silent as the students absorbed Aizawa's speech. Mokami could tell that his classmates were beginning to understand the gravity of their roles in the future of hero society. It was a daunting responsibility, but one they would face together, learning from their experiences and growing stronger as a team.

Aizawa finished his speech with a final note of encouragement. "Stay focused on your training, and never lose sight of your goals. The path ahead may be challenging, but I have faith in each and every one of you."

As the students began to process Aizawa's words, Mokami couldn't help but feel a renewed sense of determination. He knew that the path to becoming a hero would be fraught with obstacles, but with the guidance of their teachers and the support of their classmates, they would face these challenges head-on and emerge as the heroes the world so desperately needed.

Mineta suddenly yelped, drawing the attention of the entire class. Aizawa's frown deepened, ready to admonish the student for the interruption. But before he could scold Mineta, the student held up his phone, a sense of urgency in his eyes. Aizawa's anger shifted to curiosity as the news from the mobile filled the room.

A lawyer named Bakin was speaking, passionately advocating for heroes' autonomy. "Ladies and gentlemen, it is vital that heroes operate independently from the government's control. Power is fickle, and everyone is prone to corruption. The power of a country and the power to control should never be given to a single person, for that can corrupt even the purest of intentions."

As the speech continued, Mokami studied Aizawa's face, noting the subtle reactions to the lawyer's words. Aizawa glanced at Mokami, aware that Bakin was Mokami's lawyer. Momo, who also knew of the connection between Mokami and Bakin, kept her knowledge to herself, trusting her brother's intentions.

Bakin continued, "Heroes should act autonomously, so when governments start to lose control, they can step in and prevent them from harming the public. We must empower our heroes to make their own decisions, based on their own morals and values, rather than blindly following government directives."

The students in Class 1-A listened, astonished by the boldness of Bakin's speech. Some exchanged glances, unsure of how to react to this open defiance of the established system.

Aizawa maintained his stoic demeanor, but Mokami could tell that his teacher was processing the lawyer's words carefully. The implications of Bakin's speech were significant, potentially shaping the future of hero society and challenging the status quo.

As the video concluded, the room fell silent once again. The students were left to ponder the implications of the lawyer's words, grappling with the idea of a hero society that operated independently from the government. For Mokami and his classmates, it was yet another reminder of the complex challenges they would face as the next generation of heroes.

"Tomorrow we will have a Rescue Training Race with All-Might Sensei. You are free for the rest of the day." Aizawa said, as he walked out with a frown between his brows.
