Capture and Distraction

Taking care of Gigantomachia was going to be a bit annoying. He should be able to break out of the restraints I put him in.

Especially since he seems quite motivated. One of the quirks he has allows him to grow stronger the more motivated he is. I thought that since All for One died then he should be quite depressed.

But it seems that most of his emotions are related to anger right now. And he's also probably motivated to kill me and avenge his master. As stupid as that is.

Machia should be aware he's not as strong as his master. But he's still trying his best to fight me to the death. Although, realistically, he won't even be able to touch me. Not that his master was any different.

They both seemed prepared to die, although, All for One was a bit more dangerous due to the whole quirk stealing shtick.

I floated above his head while letting my thought wander. I certainly didn't take him as seriously as I did his master.

He quickly grew his teeth to great proportions. His jaw snapped at me as he jumped to reach me. His teeth passed right through me. I turned into light and reformed myself on his shoulder.

I kicked him into the ground, he didn't fly too far off. Mainly because of his weight and size, but also because I didn't hit him as hard as I could.

As he got up from the ground, he picked up a tree about as tall as him. He threw it at the approaching helicopters. It seems that both he and his master have similar strategies when it comes to distractions.

I didn't bother to do anything about the tree. As the helicopters were also filled with capable heroes. No reason to waste my energy.

Mt. Lady jumped out of one of the helicopters and grew to a size similar to that of the villain. She caught the tree in her hands. She was sent backwards, her feet dragging through the forest.

She managed to push stop and pushed the tree away. Out of the helicopters came more and more heroes.

People like Kamui Woods, who was a bit useless in this situation, I doubt wood will be able to hold down Gigantomachia in any capacity.

Gang orca was also here, so was Best Jeanist and Edgeshot. There were a lot more, but I'm not going to list them all.

They really turned this into a group fight. But I guess they can hold their own, there's no reason to believe they would hold me back.

Machia seemed angered by the interference of Mt.Lady, to the point where he momentarily forgot that I was here.

I increased the size of my fist and punched square on the nose. He was a bit disoriented, but he didn't seem to register the pain. Another one of his annoying quirks.

His hands quickly grew claws, similar to those of a mole. He swiped his hand at me with the greatest speed he could manage. Which was honestly not that great.

I dashed in front of his face and dropkicked him into the ground again. The problem is that he's really tanky. I could kill him, but then how would I learn about the new All for One's whereabouts?

Kamui and Best Jeanist were quick to come near the downed opponent.

One of them used their signature move, Lacquered Chain Prison. While the other tried to cover the giant in fabric.

Machia shook his hand and punched the ground near the heroes. It sent both of them flying into the forest. Jeanist rotated into the air and stopped himself using some fabric from his jeans. While Kamui just used his wood to slow down his momentum.

They didn't really get injured, but Kamui Woods got interrupted again. I have yet to see him successfully pull off that move. I'm sure he's quite discouraged by that.

The giant villain got up and tried to pick up another tree.

I decided to stop him from further endangering the weaker heroes. Kamui and the rest are all good enough, but there are some rookie heroes in those helicopters. People that were probably brought here to boost our numbers.

I made it wrap themselves around Machia in an attempt to keep him down. His hands and feet were completely covered at this point. But he still struggled.

Really, Midnight's quirk would've been nice to have in this situation.

Mt.Lady also came to help. Attempting to restrain the giant in standing rear-naked choke. She wasn't actually as big as Machia is, about 4 or 5 meters less in fact. He couldn't shake her off due to the chains pulling him to the ground.

But she could still stall him for a bit. He was quickly brought to his knees by my chains. I quickly rose spikes out of the ground. Impaling his feet into it, stopping right before they touched Mt.Lady.

The villain grew his bones exponentially, spikes came out of his back and attempted to stab Mt.Lady, who still hadn't let go of the chokehold.

I didn't know he could do something, I remembered him being able to grow the size of his bones. But it doesn't matter much.

I obviously wouldn't let that happen. I created a huge light shield, it started cracking quickly. But it bought Mt.Lady enough time to turn back to regular size to avoid the bone spikes.

I caught her while she was falling, pulling her away from the rapidly approaching spikes. She thanked me loudly.

I used the chains on his hands to pull him backwards, making his chest face upwards. Preparing something nice for him.

Although he trashed around and managed to break free from the chains holding his hands. More just came to replace them. His frustration should be really high right now.

"Hey! Can you prepare for a heavy landing?!" I said with a devious smile. She looked up at me, confused, then her eyes widened a bit.

I took her into the clouds and threw her towards Machia as he stood with his feet impaled into the ground.

She quickly grew in size. With her feet aiming towards Machia's chest, as she screamed and cursed me. I didn't take it to heart.

Her landing was rough, but it was a lot worse for Machia than it was for her. He was pushed into the ground. The spikes on that grew out of his spine made him stuck to the ground.

The impact caused a great shockwave, it shook the entire forest and created a crater big enough to fit Machia in it, with room to spare.

I'm quite sure it broke a few of Machia's ribs. It was a great hit, straight to the point too.

I think Mt.Lady injured one of her ankles a bit. She went back to her regular size and I quickly went to pull her away from the giant villain.

I doubt he's already knocked out. If she aimed for his head then maybe he'd be, but this is good enough. Best jeanist and Kamui got to work quickly, both of them entangling Machia in a great amount of wood and cloth.

She looked up at me. "What the fuck was that!?!?" She asked, enraged by how I treated her. Although, I think she's still quite pleased. That attack was witnessed by a lot of people.

It will raise her popularity quite a bit. I bet she'll call it something stupid, like 'Star Cannon' or something like that.

Oh well, I hope Rumi won't get mad that I have a combination move with Mt.Lady and not with her. I also promised her to keep it easy with the hero work. That's two things she can beat me around for...

I could feel my watch vibrating angrily, as my forehead started to fill with sweat. It seems that Rumi's watching television.

I quickly took Mt.Lady to a helicopter and landed.

I responded as quickly as I could.

"Yes...." I tried not to show any fear. I think that's what you're supposed to do when faced with a predator?

"Sir! Are you 'The Yellow Flash'?" Hmmm, I guess I should start looking at the number before responding. This wasn't Rumi's phone, he also seemed quite young, probably a fan or something. But his voice sounded a bit panicked.

"Yeah, what happened?" My curiosity got the better of me. As I spoke to this person, Machia started trying to get up. He started shaking his hands in an attempt to break all of the wood and fabric holding him down.

But I just raised a few more light spikes out of the ground. Piercing his hands and legs in more places and making sure he wouldn't be able to move.

"Villains have attacked UA!!" What?!
