SS grade Monster

"What did you see? Why's Mount Lady here?" Kirishima asked.

"The hostages aren't here, but the heroes are. They'll take care of the villains. We need to bail. Split up gang! Me and Deku will go this way." I said, pointing towards the Kamino Heights.

"Whereas you guys head back to central square and rendezvous at Mitsutoshi Megastore. Go!"

"Yes. Finally!" Iida replied, dragging the other three off and away.

I looked at Deku and nodded.

He got the hint.

Slowly, we creeped away from the warehouse, as Mt. Lady's gasp rang out across the township.

She gingerly picked up the half eaten remains of Ragdoll and wrapped them in a funeral white cloth, choking back vomit.

From two blocks away, a scream could be heard.

"Shoto!"

Looks like Endeavor was here.

Good.

If I can get him crippled now, then the SuperNomu in a couple of weeks should deal with him fairly well.

He wouldn't die, of course. That would be expecting too much of the Nomu.

But he would certainly be forced to retire and disband his agency.

This fight was therefore a very important one.

Playing my cards right, I could very well break apart hero society just today.

But then again, things don't always how according to plan, do they now?

Even as we circled the residential township, avoiding the distracted guards, we made it to the top of a nearby building with a great vantage point.

From afar, I could see the league arrive, emerging from a veritable waterfall of black goo gushing out the second floor of the half of the warehouse that was still intact.

"League of Villains! You're under arrest! Surrender immediately!" Best Jeanist announced, jumping up into the air, landing of web of carbon fiber jeans strings, with a flourish, his web shooting forward and enveloping Hijikata, Shigaraki, Kurogiri and Twice, before Dabi burned it off with a fierce blue torrent of flame, rising into a burning column, even as Dabi bled from his stitches.

"Fuck off!" Dabi shouted in anger, as Twice got to cloning everyone, increasing their forces.

My tactics that Hijikata taught them.

Why would I help the league become stronger?

Because when I defeat the league that took down hero society, I'll be the inviolable hero, a god among men, the true saviour of the world!

And to that end, I cant have them losing that easy.

"Haru-chan! The hostages, they're there! And ..and it's..." Deku cried out.

"Yes. I know. It's my mother. Don't worry. I'll take care of it. You need to focus on evacuating and rescuing people from the vicinity. Leave the League to me." I ordered.

Deku hesitated, open and closing his mouth as if to say something, before he nodded solemnly, trusting in my abilities.

"What did they do to her?" Orca asked, looking at Ragdoll's corpse.

"Sorry about that. She had such a great quirk, I couldn't resist taking it!" A voice came from within the shadows of the collapse building.

"After my body became like this, I also depleted a lot of what I had stocked up." AFO added.

"Are you with the league?" Orca asked.

"A light! Someone get a-" Mount lady called out, before a wrecking ball sized hole tore open on her stomach, guts spilling out.

"Khuakh!" She spat out blood and chunk of her entrails, as her quirk deactivated, shrinking her to normal size.

"You! Stop right there! Don't move or we'll shoot!" Orca shouted, raising a hand to signal the officers standing behind him, only to have that hand get blown off with a wild and powerful gust of wind.

"What was that?" A cop cried out.

"Air Shot! A very useful quirk in dealing with pests such as you." AFO spoke out in a tone reminiscent of a homeowner looking at racoons in their dumpster at 3 am in the morning.

Clutching his arm, Orca wrapped his bleeding stump with his coat before he leapt at AFO, screaming ultrasonic waves.

AFO staggered, bleeding through his nose, before recieving Orca's punch head on.

"Impact Recoil!" AFO smiled, his head turning at an unnatural angle from the punch, before he snapped it back and began recovering, albeit slowly.

Orca on the other hand, fell to the ground, the full force of his punch being turned back upon him.

AFO created a rivet in his palm, shooting it ar Orca point blank, only for Orca to dodge it last second, with the help of Jeanist.

With a casual pace, he walked out of the shadows, the click clacking of his shoes against the concrete echoing in the horrified silence of the onlookers.

Without a moment's hesitation, Best Jeanist tightened the fibers around AFO and trapped him in his own suit, binding his arms and legs behind his back with a flick of his hand.

Suddenly, bolts of red and black lightning sparked across AFO's body sending Jeanist and the others flying, in a fit of convulsions.

Not to be outdone, Jeanist controlled the fibers around his body and puppeteered himself back into form, ready to strike back, only to have his stomach blown out with an Air Cannon.

"How- who are y-" he sputtered as he fell on his back, into a puddle of his own innards.

"As expected of the number four hero, Best Jeanist!" AFO clapped slowly, almost mockingly, like a god looking upon revolting ants.

"Even when, I thought I had gotten everyone in my first barrage. You survived and even managed to save your fellow heroes. And with that mediocre quirk even!"

Jeanist, gurgling on blood raised what looked to be an accusatory finger at AFO.

"Hmm?" AFO intoned, as steel coils wrapped around him from behind, one of them piercing him through the shoulder, anchoring the coils to his body.

"You think this will hold me?" AFO asked, flexing his muscles, as the steel creaked mightily and with a snap and crackle, shattered into a dozen dozen pieces, falling to the ground, some distance away.

Even as AFO pulled out the coiled steel rods out of his shoulders, Deku activated full cowling, almost on instinct and prepared to jump in, as I grabbed him firmly by the shoulder.

"No. Let me do it. Save the heroes and the officers. You are faster and their lives matter more than his capture." I said.

Deku ground his teeth in frustration as he shot forth grabbing the injured heroes and leapt away at full power, even as I ran down the now slanting tower and jumped off, landing across the block from him.

"Where do you think you're going, Izuku Midoriya!?" AFO called out, shooting at Deku, who avoided the shots to the best of his ability, being grazed in the calves by some, while others nearly carved out bullet holes by his rib cage.

While he was distracted, I stopped his hands in place, even as Deku changed directions and vanished into the distance.

Now, I just had to wait till All Might fought him.

"Shikimori Haru! I knew you'd come here. Your little experiment? He has quite the selection, doesn't he? I met him when I caught your mother. It was a shame he escaped. But fear not! I'll gut him the same as you, all in due time." He shouted, his voice echoing throughout the township, as residents peaked out their windows in fear.

"Still going to hide like a rat? You do know that I can see you, right?" He said, pivoting his head towards me, slowly and deliberately like a horror movie monster.

Just then, with a bang he arrived.

The man, the myth, the legend.

"Fear not citizens! Why? Because I Am HERE!"

With a smile like the sun, his hair blowing gently in the wind, All Might rose from his crouching position and struck a confident pose.

Man! Even I have to admit, that was fucking COOL! In capital letters!

The bastard sure knew how to make an entrance!
