Chapter 143: Sky Fall

I am sorry for the delay. Big and new changes are taking place in my daily life and I cannot write a chapter because I have a little difficulty keeping up with it. I apologize in advance for the chapters I will be delayed in publishing in the future.

There may be a lot of mistakes in this chapter as it's a bit rushed. If you write what you see, I will fix it.

Also, since I don't know A.F.O's Quirks, I'm looking at the fandom. So there may be mistake.

Enjoy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Blake, don't have a last name. Year 3 student at U.A. He has a harem, his harem mamber is Nejire Hado, Rumi Usagiyama, Momo Yaoyorozu, Nemuri Kayama and Fuyumi Todoroki. He was kicked out of the U.A because, in his four-month disappearance, the villain discredited him and he didn't respond.''

"But everyone knows that the reason Blake was kicked out of U.A. was because the U.A and other people were afraid of his composure and callousness. No matter what is Right or Wrong, he does whatever he wants with his selfish personality and does whatever is right for him. The most obvious proof was that he didn't give the villain Dabi to the heroes and kept him."

"U.A. students and a few heroes say he is cold and unfeeling. And what has been said seems to be true. Blake brutally murdered 70 people and showed a cold expression while doing so. This is a truly heartbreaking sight."

Similar news was shown on every television channel in Japan. A few hours had passed since the beginning of the war and every channel had started their news by interrupting the movies/series/advertisements they were broadcasting.

In the news channels describing the situation in Japan, an image of what he did was played along with the photo of the handsome white-haired young man. The news anchors even showed off his school background, talents, and unleashed powers.

Among them were images of the speed power that Blake had unleashed at various times. Quirk analysts, scientists, and famous reporters were playing slowed-down versions of the image dozens of times and talking about what his second Quirk was.

Nezu, the director of the U.A., had told Blake that as long as he agreed to help him with something, he would not extend this power. Blake had kept his word and smashed Class 1-A's arrogance for U.A., and Nezu also kept his word, keeping Blake's power beyond anyone's reach.

However, this promise was valid until Blake killed 70 people.

After Blake killed 70 villains, he was sure to get a big reaction. It would not fall off the agenda, the government would be pressured to capture and lock it up. Also, no matter how bad they were, he still had to go to jail for killing a person.

Even Blake's imprisonment was not enough to allay the fears of the now gathering Japanese people. With Blake imprisoned, the Japanese people would find another target to vent their anger and fears.

And Nezu, the director of U.A., thought it would be them who had Blake on their head at the time. That's why Nezu, trying to avoid the pressure of the Japanese people, leaked the information about Blake's powers.

So people would focus on his powers and forget about U.A.

"It is said that Blake was fast enough to go several kilometers in an instant. Looking at the records here, we can see that this is not a lie. The only explanation for why we can only watch something by slowing it down so much on high-end recorders is that that person is the fastest living thing we've ever seen."

"He probably has a speed that can exceed the speed of sound."

And their plan had worked. Everyone but the people of Japan and the heroes currently fighting was focused on Blake and his power. They were trying to gauge the potential of his power, estimating how fast he could be, and arguing about what more he might reveal.

The screen behind them changed as the hosts, professors, and a few heroes afraid to land on the field spoke of Blake's power. The image of Blake using the Storm Hand took up the huge screen behind them.

The news channels went silent. Those who watched the news on television came closer to the television. The news anchors and professors put aside what they were doing and stared at the huge screen behind them.

Between their gaze, white lightning bolts covered the entire city like leather, at Blake's command they accelerated and reached A.F.O.

From Blake's elbow at the center of the lightning bolts, an unlimited amount of lightning was coming out. There seemed to be no end to the lightning bolts that covered the city and stretched out into the mountains. Blake just stood there for a while, then casually waved his arm. He parted his lips and said a few words.

The lightning bolts attached to Blake's arm stretched as if they had caught something. As Blake pulled back, a nearby mountain wall collapsed and an object began to be dragged from the sky by lightning bolts.

No one could see what was dragged on. They didn't dare watch the recordings by slowing down, for fear of losing any moment.

Shot by lightning, the "Thing" or "Person" appeared next to Blake for a moment, then crashed into the wall behind him the next moment, creating a huge cloud of smoke.

Throwing the "Thing" or "Person" back, the lightning bolts spun in an S-shape in mid-air and joined with his arm as Blake pulled his arm. Everyone along the way saw what happened to Blake's arm.

This is a hand. The hand was tied to Blake's arm by lightning bolts. With Blake's tugging, the lightning that surrounded the city suddenly returned and merged with Blake's body. Hand joined with Blake's arm.

Blake continued to stare at his hand instead of looking at the person he was throwing. He opened and closed his hand, grabbed her arm with the other arm, and stretched.

The shadow of the person striking the building could be seen outside the dust cloud. His arm was twice the normal size and reminded the people of Japan of a certain person. When he put his big arm on the building, the building cracked and began to collapse.

The silhouette, visible in the dust cloud, stood up, supported by an arm that was twice his body size. After the black figure's arm was reduced to normal sizes, he started to shrug off his clothes.

Blake then finished examining his arm and turned away. His mood changed as he turned his body back. Its mild and remote atmosphere took on a bone-chilling chill. The black-red threads coming out of his body turned liquidy and spread across the sky.

''Good. Very good. Life continues to surprise me. First Teka Todoroki, then you, one stronger and more formidable than the other. Life is truly full of surprises. Don't you think so too, Blake?"

Woshh!!

The shadow in the dust cloud waved its hand. The dust cloud dissipated. Accompanied by the voice coming from the nasal passages and penetrating the mind, A.F.O appeared. A.F.O had his hands spread wide, his organless face turned to Blake. The building behind him was collapsing every second.

The whole world fell into silence after his question. The reporters presenting the news, the reporters in front of the cameras, the people in front of the television and the heroes watching it on their phones, everyone's eyes widened and looked at the image in front of them.

No one thought that Blake shot A.F.O and was brave enough to shoot it.

**

"!!!!" "Rei stood up, startled by the appearance of A.F.O.

Like everyone else, she hadn't thought that the person Blake intended to fight was A.F.O. Although she didn't know Blake's strength, she had a feeling that with his strength it was easy to fight the Nomu and a few villains.

But A.F.O was completely different. He was the only one who lived through the generations and defeated all the O.F.A. and made All Might useless by fighting a great battle against him today.

Step by step, year after year, he had established himself in their hearts as a true demon lord. It had become an existence that locals and heroes had to flee to when they saw it, and that no one outside of All Might could resist.

And now the man with whom she had developed feelings had fearlessly attracted A.F.O. Of course she was afraid. So even though she couldn't do anything, she involuntarily stood up. The "Youth" in her heart was running around holding two flags. Flags read "S.O.S" in capital letters.

Grab*

As soon as Rei stood up, her arm was grabbed by Fuyumi. Rei turned her head and looked at her daughter.

"Mom, calm down." Fuyumi had regained her composure and moderate expression unlike her conversation with Yoshino and Enji.

Fuyumi narrowed her eyes, smiled at her mother, then grabbed her arm with both hands and gently pulled her away. Using some of her Blake-trained strength, she sat Rei next to her.

Rei was taken aback by her daughter's strength but quickly recovered from her surprise. Maintaining her panicked expression, she grabbed her daughter's hand with both hands and squeezed it. She spoke in a helpless tone.

"Fuyumi, aren't you afraid? Blake stands up to A.F.O. Even if he's fast, he might die." Rei's hands, holding Fuyumi's hand, were shaking wildly. Her shoulders were constantly rising and falling, and she was breathing rapidly.

Blake's successive reveal was astounding, but it was A.F.O. with an unknown amount of Quirk. His strength was unquestionable to the people of the MHA world.

''Fear? Yes, I'm afraid. And I'm scared like crazy. After all, Blake is the most precious thing in my life." Fuyumi opened her closed eyes. At that moment, Rei saw her daughter's trembling pupils. Looking closely, she noticed that Fuyumi's complexion was pale and her shoulders were slumped.

"However, I trust him. He will not die and will come back to us firmly, teasing us, blushing us, and continuing to love us. I'm sure of that." Fuyumi closed her eyes again. Her eyelashes were trembling, her eyelids were moving. Rei's grip tightened.

Rei looked at her daughter's expression. Then she watched the huge screen on the building like the other people around her.

Blake, who was in the focus of Japan, perhaps the entire world, kept his cold expression as he looked at A.F.O. There was no sign of being nervous. He stared monotonously into A.F.O's eyes, amid the collapsed buildings, under the starry night covered with dark clouds.

His demeanor was not like that of other heroes. When others faced the A.F.O, they prepared as best they could and raised their guards as they faced their worst enemy. However, Blake had a cold expression as if he was facing a simple enemy. It even contained some disdain.

"And he will come back and punish us," Rei spoke in a captivated tone as she stared into Blake's handsome face. Blake's indifference and tired eyes had a charm of their own.

In the footage taken from helicopters, it was as small as a spot in the destroyed city, but the air it emitted covered the entire city. His lightning-covered body looked like a storm cloud, and the beautiful white lightning made it impossible to take her eyes off him.

Stars appeared in Rei's eyes. "Youth" broke out of her panic and began to watch Blake as if she had been hypnotized.

Behind them, sitting on boards drawn around a tree, Nejire was drinking a juice. She was swinging her legs back and forth, shaking her head left and right. Her hair was bouncing with her movements.

"Sip* Gulp*" After she finished her juice, she placed the bowl next to Fuyumi and intended to turn around and leave.

Unlike other heroes, Nejire needed to rest and replenish her stamina, as Nejire's Quirk was depleting her stamina. She knew that somewhere people were being hurt, but she needed to rest.

"No matter how urgent it is, you should rest when you need to rest. If you're tired or sluggish, never go somewhere where you're going to risk your life. This is not allowed. If you do this, you will not be able to use your full strength and you may die as a result of a little carelessness at a critical time."

Blake had told her this, and Nejire, Blake's smart girl, was doing her best to live up to those words. Not only her but also the other girls were trying to follow her words as best they could.

Nejire had had enough rest and needed to get back to duty. She folded her hands behind her back and stepped away, stepping away as she swung her legs parallel to the ground.

"Nejire-chan, are you leaving? Aren't you going to watch Blake?" Rei turned her head and turned to face the increasingly distant Nejire. But her eyes were still watching Blake on the giant screen.

Nejire's steps stopped. She looked over her shoulder at the giant screen. She spoke with a proud and knowing grin.

''There's no need. I know Blake will win." Nejire shrugged. She was aware that A.F.O was strong, and only a few years ago, she too thought A.F.O was invincible.

But if it was Blake who fought him, A.F.O would, unfortunately, face an utter defeat. It wasn't just that she was blindly in love with Blake and the faith that grew out of that love. Nejire was the one who knew Blake's power best. With Blake's strength, A.F.O was not his rival.

Also, Nejire was deeply attached to Blake. She was so attached that their bond would remain even in loops and her love for Blake would not fade. These ties were telling her that Blake would not lose.

"Don't forget to watch him beat A.F.O." As Nejire drifted away, she heard Fuyumi's words, who continued to watch Blake. She replied with a broad, ear-to-ear smile.

''Of course. I don't want to miss a single moment of his cool part." She was confident that Blake would win, and she could see the result already. But that didn't mean she would miss out on seeing Blake's cool moment when he shocked the whole world.

The two girls Blake held in their hearts went their separate ways with similar smiles, while the newly joined Rei had a bittersweet expression. She had no idea where the girls' unwavering faith in their worship had come from and hoped one day to build unshakable trust in the man she had developed feelings for, like them.

**

Instead of answering A.F.O's question, Blake continued to watch him. His air had become completely icy, not a single bit of emotion on his face. The killing intent was intensifying with every passing second.

''No answer, huh. Come on, don't be like that. There's no harm in talking to either of us, right?" Behind A.F.O, the building continued to collapse, the loud sound of destruction drowning his voice. Still, his annoying nasal voice managed to reach Blake's ears.

Something was moving every second on his back, which Blake couldn't see, lifting his suit. His muscles formed hideous folds, his back skin moved abnormally.

A.F.O was not a talkative person. Behind his every move was a meaning, behind every word was an ulterior motive. Even in a harmless conversation, he wanted to have with Blake, he was preparing for a powerful attack.

Blake's eyes were half-open, staring wearily at A.F.O. He know A.F.O keeping himself busy, preparing for a powerful first strike.

Yet he did not move and waited for him to prepare.

Because Blake desperately wanted him to savor defeat, despite his best efforts. He would do his best, use all his strength, reveal even the smallest bit of power he had hidden until now, and still lose.

Just like Teka did, just like he forced her to do it.

"Since you don't answer that. Answer another question for me...'' Seeing that this was not working, A.F.O decided to ask another question.

"Why didn't you act sooner?"

A few of the Quirks A.F.O had allowed him to sense the space around him and to notice the creatures in the area. He had a lot of Quirks from Radar, Perimeter Eye, and Third Eye and their derivatives.

And with these Quirks, he was able to realize that there was a person in the city. Blake had been in town all along, watching Teka's battle from afar. He had not moved since the beginning of the war and had followed Teka's battle steadily.

This gesture was something that even A.F.O, a cunning and intelligent man, could not understand. After doing some research on Blake, he found that he was very protective of his women.

There was no way that such a protective person would leave her to death with his stated attitude towards Teka. Of course...

"Were you trying to win her heart by saving her from death by coming at the last moment?" A.F.O opened and closed his hand in front of him as if he were holding something. It depicted how Blake had captured Teka.

Although he was not interested in love affairs and knew nothing, he was aware of some tactics. He thought that he was trying to gain a place in Teka's heart by leaving her a second before her death and saving her from death.

Blake continued to stare at the man. After a while, he turned his eyes to the side and looked elsewhere.

"Everyone has battles that they must fight for themselves. There were wars in which you put all your soul and will and did not spare the slightest strength. This is true in life or real fights." Blake, his face to the side, looked at the unconscious Teka in the middle of his words. The woman's peaceful expression made him chuckle unconsciously.

True, it was here from the beginning. Teka had come here after uncovering the lava column and watched the entire battle. To be precise, he was sitting on the roof of a house just a few hundred yards away.

From the beginning, he had millions of memories to intervene and prevent Teka from becoming so exhausted and injured. With his speed, it would be very easy to get him out of there or kill the enemies.

But he didn't. As he said, in any world, there would be a battle that people waged for a purpose. There was Blake's fight with the world for girls, Teka's battle for her life and her future, or an ordinary person's daily war, everyone's wars for a cause.

Blake didn't care about the battle of others. However Teka's battle was important to him, and he still decided not to interfere in Teka's battle. With her strength and demeanor in battle, she showed how important this battle was to her.

"I couldn't stop her or steal her battle, but it would backfire." Blake, Teka's other half, could predict Teka's thoughts and preparation stage as she went into battle. After so much dedication to warfare and going through spiritual ups and downs, she could fall into an emotional void if he took the battle away from her and got things done.

It was like a student who gave more than 100% for the upcoming exam. After all that hard work and study, when it was time for the exam, it was like the exam being canceled. When this happened, one would involuntarily fall into the void, questioning all the wasted time.

And what was wrong with fighting? For those with power standing on top of this world like Teka, it was very difficult to encounter enemies strong enough to match them.

This encounter with an opponent of equal strength would have provided Teka very well mentally and physically. He had full confidence that Teka could easily take him down if they had a chance to fight again in the future.

"As I thought, I don't understand." A.F.O shook his head. He didn't understand Blake's thoughts and feelings. To him, it was absurd to do such things.

'I didn't expect you to understand. Have you finished your preparations?" Blake turned his head and asked in a monotone.

A.F.O stopped his actions at his words. The next second he revealed a chilling smile. However, his air had completely changed, a bloodthirsty bloody air rushed out of his body.

"So you knew."

'Of course, I knew. Unlike the heroes you've met so far, I'm not in the habit of talking during the fight." Blake shrugged. If he didn't want to, A.F.O wouldn't even be able to start his preparations.

"Then shall we begin?" A.F.O raised his hand towards Blake. He was about to start attacking, despite asking questions.

His hand was double that of normal, and the veins on his skin were visible even under his clothes. The fingers of the hand he held out to Blake were covered with black branches with red cracked lines. These branches, which started from the tips of the fingers, spread to all his fingers.

Rivet Stab!

Swish! Swish! Swish!

Red twigs streamed down Blake like arrows. They were targeting different points of Blake from different angles. They were targeting his head, neck, heart, stomach, and lungs.

Blake watched in silence as the five red arrows landed on him. He had no intention of dodging. With half-open eyes, he watched the arrows come to his senses.

It didn't take long for the arrows to reach him. The air-piercing arrows were in front of Blake's face.

Blake's body rippled slightly. The lines of his body blurred, like a stone thrown into a still water surface. It was getting harder and harder to see her face and body parts. A strange sound was emanating from his body vibrating.

Bang! Bang! Bang! Bang!

A five-pointed red streak passed through Blake's body and pierced the ground. The red streaks had hit their target, but they pierced the ground through his body without revealing any blood or flesh. Blake watched him, keeping his cold gaze.

"Hm?" Not only A.F.O, but millions of people watching this situation on television gave similar reactions.

A lot of Quirks who were able to accomplish what Blake is doing now have been in a lot of people before. Mirio's was one of them.

But what happened with Blake was completely different. First of all, he already had a Quirk and people thought he still had a Quirk about lightning. Now they've learned that he has another Quirk that exempts him from attacks.

And this Quirk looked completely different from what he had seen before. Blake's body seemed to be doing its immunity from attack by vibrating at another vibrational frequency instead of becoming intangible like Mirio.

Scientists realized that it was directly related to vibration and made it public. This surprised people even more. First, a Quirk that allowed him to cross human limits, speed that transcends reason, then Lightning, one of the most destructive elements, now vibration, how many Quirks did Blake have altogether?

Some people were even starting to think that Blake would beat A.F.O.

Blake stepped forward to the gaze of millions of people. He had no trouble approaching A.F.O, step by step while walking tied to the red branches growing from A.F.O's fingers.

A.F.O watched Blake for a while. Blake took the third step toward him. A.F.O snapped out of his thoughts and pulled back the red stripes.

The red stripes attached to the ground were removed from the ground at the request of A.F.O. Pieces of earth were thrown into the air behind the red stripes. They then passed through Blake's body once more and joined A.F.O's hand.

A.F.O withdrew his hand and rubbed his wrist with his other hand. After a quick thought session, he raised his other hand and decided to use another Quirk.

He opened his hand wide, spread his five fingers as wide as he could, and started Quirk. His arms moved slightly, and a stream of air appeared in the palm of his hand. The airflow grew with the passing second and turned into a ball.

GR!! Crack!

Not only that, his left arm, which was covered with red electricity-like currents, suddenly expanded. His suit sleeve stretched to the limit because of his overgrown arm. The skin under the suit was extremely stretchy and seemed to tear if he pushed a little harder. But A.F.O didn't care.

Air Canon. The Quirk, which could even push back the wounded All Might and devastate much of the city, was used once again.

''Bigger...''

Vhoshhh!!

However, this time was completely different from the previous one. While it was as big as a mortar shell that he attacked All Might, it was twice as big and powerful as the one used this time.

''You can dodge it. But would you do that?" The Air Canon jumped out of his hand at A.F.O's question. In the region he passed, severe air currents and shock waves were also accompanied. The trees around them tilted with the momentum of the Air Cannon. Cars and remnants of buildings on the ground swung toward Blake.

Blake stopped his steps. He turned his head to the side and looked over his shoulder at Teka. As A.F.O said, if he got through this with his vibration, he would hit Teka behind him. And no matter how strong he was, the unconscious Teka would die because she could respond to this attack.

One corner of Blake's lip curled up into a mocking smile. This was true if Teka was unprotected, but with enemies close by, there was no chance of Blake leaving Teka defenseless.

His expression didn't change, he turned his head and stepped forward. His body began to tremble once again.

"So you chose this." A.F.O smiled nastily. His cheeks curved upward. If he had eyes, he would have a creepy expression.

Vosh!

Air Cannon arrived in front of Blake and flew right through it as everyone expected. However, no one was happy. Everyone was staring at the unconscious Teka, leaning against the tree behind her. Even though the airball had passed through him, Teka was defenseless.

Rei's shoulders trembled. If She hadn't grabbed her by the shoulder, She would have stood up once more. She opened her mouth to say something but was stopped by Fuyumi.

"Just trust Blake, mom. There's no way he'd leave one of us defenseless." Fuyumi nodded in absolute confidence. Instead of looking at Rei throughout her speech, she continued to watch the giant screen.

Rei's eyelids fluttered. She looked first at the giant screen, then at Fuyumi's face. Her daughter was watching the screen with a big smile. She had unwavering faith as she stared at the back of the handsome man on the screen. It was as if she believed that even if the world collapsed, the man in front of her would stand.

She didn't know where this trust came from, but she hoped that one day she would be able to trust the person she loved so much.

Returning to the battlefield, amid the gaze of the people, the great airball came before Teka. The huge ball of air was Teka's head three times her body and was bigger than the tree she was leaning against. There was no way the unconscious Teka could afford it.

BANG!!! VHOSSHHHHHHH!!!

The air ball hit Teka. There was a loud crashing sound. The ground was shaking as if there was an earthquake. A few ruined buildings in the surrounding area collapsed, leaving piles of rubble behind.

After the ball hit the tree, it flattened a cone-shaped area behind the tree. Buildings, ground, trees, and much more disappeared. What remained were clouds of dust and bits of rubble that were blown around.

Pat! Pat! Pat!

After the explosion, silence took over the area. Except for the crash of stones falling from the sky and the building collapsed with dust clouds, no other sound could be heard. Blake kept walking as if nothing had happened. At that moment, there was a sound of applause.

"I didn't think you were such a hard-hearted person. Even if your woman turns to dust, you keep coming towards me. You sure are a better foe than All Might-" A.F.O was clapping, speaking in an irritating tone. He spread his hands to the sides and explained with a wide smile.

But his words were interrupted by what he saw.

His vision was Blake, with a huge cloud of dust behind him. Blake in front of the dust cloud looked very small. He was approaching her step by step, keeping his icy expression.

Amid his words, the cloud of dust parted slightly, and a leg appeared as soft as cotton, unblemished. The dust cloud continued to disperse. There were legs, two full hips, a slim waist, and finally a masterpiece face.

Bztt!! Bztt!! Bzzttt!!

Teka and the tree behind it were unharmed. They were inside a cage of lightning that surrounded them from ten meters away. Lightning burned the oxygen, making raspy sounds. The lightning cage was unaffected by the air cannon that turned parts of the city to dust.

Not only Teka, but even the tree she was leaning against was unharmed. It showed the power of Blake's lightning bolts. Against him, he could not only protect a human being but even a useless tree if he wanted to.

For the first time, A.F.O made a distressed expression. Although Blake's powers were overwhelming, he was confident that he could reciprocate every one of them. However, the undamaged lightning cage showed for the first time that this was not entirely true.

It was natural, on the one hand, the main villain of an anime, on the other hand, lightning from one of the basic building blocks of an entire universe. In addition to being a fundamental part of the universe, speed power was a source of dark matter energy.

How could such power be broken with a simple cannon of compressed air? If so, could it be called "speed power"?

He continued to stare at Blake through his thoughts. Regardless of whether his emotions were inflamed, he was still the A.F.O and was adept at controlling his emotions.

Blake's body at his sight trembled. It suddenly appeared in front of him. There was a nose distance between them. He was one of the few people in this world who had managed to get this close to A.F.O and dared to do so. However, there was a fundamental difference.

"He's attacking…" Rei covered her mouth with her hands. She watched Blake with wide eyes. She understood Blake's intentions, and it shocked her. A wave of admiration hit her. "Youth" screaming like ''Kya~~'' ''Soo cool~~'' while waving her hand.

Yes, Blake was attacking. While all the heroes before that, except for All Might and the O.F.A guardians, were considering attacking A.F.O, let alone attacking him, and fleeing when they encountered him, Blake suddenly attacked.

Well, it was normal for Blake to do that. If he hadn't done so after unleashing such amazing power, that would be the surprising thing. However, it was still an astonishing sight to see him actively attacking.

"Time to return the favor." Blake raised his hand and placed it on A.F.O's chest before he had a chance to react.

Twitch*

His hand twitched. It was just a simple twitch, but the power he carried behind him was too much. A.F.O's mouth fell open. He tried to say something, but the moment he opened his mouth, his face twitched and he jumped back.

BANG!!

When A.F.O sprang back ten meters, a massive shock wave appeared and swept away from his former spot, Blake holding his hand in the air.

The A.F.O was being thrown back like a kite with a broken tether. He had a few Quirks to get him out of this situation, but the pain he felt in his chest prevented him from doing so.

He felt as if he had been hit by a speeding Japanese train. This train in particular had hit his chest, shocking his heart and lungs, breaking most of his bones, and making it impossible for him to breathe.

His Regeneration Quirks became active and healed his chest wounds. The pain in his chest subsided slightly, yet he was in a great pain that deprived him of his use of Quirk.

Standing at A.F.O's old spot, Blake lazily flung his hands to his sides as he watched A.F.O move further and further away from him.

Tap! Crackle! Crackle!

He waved his arms lazily at his sides. Lightning began to come out of his hands. Lightning came together. He formed thin but sturdy lightning strings.

Crackle! Crackle!

Moment and moments, more lightning was coming out of Blake's body, feeding the lighting strips. The fed lightning strips were lengthening rather than widening.

10 meters... 100 meters... 1000 meters...

The lighting strips stopped after reaching several thousand meters. Blake was watching A.F.O with a neutral expression. He flung his hands slightly to the sides.

Vhip! Smack!

With his swing, lightning strips stretching for thousands of meters clung to and hugged the two buildings. Blake waved his hand once more. Buildings broke halfway through and began to fall.

Blake stepped forward.

Pat!

Vosh!

In an instant, his stance changed. Once he had spun around, he had jumped and was now in the air. The lighting strips in his hands followed his turn. A white line was still standing, starting from the position before turning and reaching its final position. It had spun so fast that the afterimage of the white line continued to stand still for a few more seconds before disappearing.

GRG!

His grip tightened. His muscles contracted. Not only his arm muscles, but all the muscles in his body began to work. He wasn't using all his strength, but he was using a large amount of power.

BANG! BANG!

The two buildings changed places in an instant, following the white stripe afterimage, proceeding on similar routes. They hit the ground along the route, losing a few pieces but retaining their overall structure.

VHOMMMMMM!!

The empty sky in A.F.O's view, which continued to drift, was suddenly replaced by two huge remnants of it. His body was covered by the shadows of building fragments.

He lowered his eyes. Two huge building ruins, a young man with lightning strips, were being held by his rival, Blake. Blake's eyes were narrowed, gleaming with sharp killing intent. As if he had noticed her gaze, their gaze met.

Blob!!

A gray liquid dripped from his mouth as A.F.O continued to watch him. He disappeared from where he was.

BOOOMMMMM!!

When he disappeared, the remains of two buildings hit the area where he disappeared. The ground rose in waves, shock waves radiating in circles. More buildings were collapsing, splitting, and disappearing under the impact of the shock waves.

A huge cloud of dust covered the area where the two were located. Not only dust, but also iron, rubble, and building debris were falling from the dust cloud. The remains of two buildings were buried in plate-shaped soil. The force behind it was so great that the building sank to the ground instead of crashing into pieces.

The helicopters took off once again to avoid the shock wave or flew away from the battlefield. It was the fourth time they had done this since the beginning of the battle.

Nobody spoke. The people of Japan, the villain watching the battle on TV, and many more were quietly waiting for the battle to continue.

Blob!

A mass of gray liquid appeared in the air a few hundred meters from where the explosion had taken place. The gray liquid mass expanded and disappeared after reaching two meters. A.F.O appeared where the gray liquid mass had disappeared.

A.F.O stepped into the air. He was ready to use his Quirk again in case of a possible attack, but the attack he expected did not happen. With a small murmur, he turned his head into the cloud of dust where Blake had disappeared.

In the dust cloud, two intelligence-filled eyes were watching him, the time of which was unknown. The body of the owner of the eyes could be seen faintly in the cloud of dust. He stood with one foot on top of the ruins of the building, the rest of his body horizontal, standing on the top and watching him.

His gaze had been where A.F.O had been all along. This gave A.F.O the odd idea that Blake would know where he was going wherever he went.

"Strange… very strange…" A.F.O whispered as he watched the silhouette in the dust cloud. This was very strange. No one had ever made him feel like this before. Neither O.F.A carriers nor All Might, not even Teka, could make him feel such feelings.

He thought that Blake could give him any kind of response. Whatever he did, the other side would find an answer and play with him as he said at the beginning, responding to all his moves.

And he had felt that she didn't know how to describe. He felt that he couldn't beat the other side. He felt that all his efforts were in vain, that the other party was an existence far above him.

That's why he described these feelings as strange. He had never even thought of meeting such a person, let alone feeling something like this before.

There was also another feeling that he couldn't explain. He felt that Blake was completely different from the others. Regardless of All Might, Midoriya, Tomura, him, and other O.F.A users, Blake was different from them.

He had felt this emotion in Teka as well, but unlike Blake, the emotion he felt from her was very shallow.

The mix of all these emotions confused him. An icy voice echoed in his ears as he was in emotional turmoil.

'I don't normally do that. Because it's so stupid and childish. But since I will play with you. I want to watch how you can't respond even if I shout talent. For this reason…''

[Compressed Lightning]

A.F.O saw Blake in the dust cloud extend his hand. His hand pierced through the cloud of dust and became visible to the whole world.

Crackle!

A large amount of lightning was coming out of Blake's body. Thanks to the lightning, the dust cloud instantly dissipated and Blake at the center of the lightning was revealed. His masculine figure was enveloped in lightning, beautiful and graceful lightning bolts coming out of his body and whipping the air.

At Blake's orders, lightning bolts shot toward A.F.O within a tenth of a second. They circularly circled his body. However, A.F.O's arms, legs, and head were outside the perforated lightning circle.

Everything had happened so abruptly, the lightning's movement speed was much faster than A.F.O could respond. The openings of the lightning had caused Blake to not trigger the danger mechanism in his brain as he had intended, and he did not try to escape using the teleport.

Slap!

Blake closed his hand noisily. Compressed Lightning surrounding A.F.O began to close with his movement. For the first time in his life, A.F.O felt the shadow of death. If these things were completely closed, only his head, arms, and legs would be left behind.

Lightning, which was getting closer to him every millisecond, reflected from his eyeballs. His lips parted unconsciously and he spoke.

"Teleport..." No gray liquid came out this time. A.F.O disappeared from the spot and appeared meters away.

Crackle! KHPAMM!!

Lightning roared. Compressed lightning bolts closed with a clear sound.

A.F.O turned his head and looked at his previous place. Nothing remained of the lightning, it had disappeared as if it had never existed. But the sense of death that A.F.O felt was there.

[Compressed Lightning]

Before A.F.O had a chance to experience his feelings, he heard the cold words once again. His expression turned strange, his lips parted, and he said, "Teleport."

Wow!

Crackle! KHPAMH!!

A few seconds before he teleported, Compressed Lightning enveloped his body, but once again he managed to evade him as he was able to react in time.

[Compressed Lightning]

"Teleport."

[Compressed Lightning]

"Teleport."

Blake was constantly sending Compressed Lightning, and A.F.O was getting through it at the last minute. He didn't do it on purpose, but like Blake, Lightning's speed was excessive, and he had no choice but to dodge and save his life at the last moment.

Situations had completely changed, and the table was turned. In the beginning, A.F.O attacks Blake and Blake defends him... or rather, the attacks were going through him. Now Blake is attacking and A.F.O has no choice but to flee.

He couldn't attack back because the moment he tried to attack, he would be crushed to nothing by the Compressed Lightning. He couldn't block the attack either, because he didn't have a Quirk that could block the attack. So all he could do was run away.

Continuing to throw [Compressed Lightning], Blake lowered his hand. Compressed Lightning stopped spawning. He continued to stare at A.F.O. He narrowed his eyes, turned his head to the side, and began to think.

A.F.O took the opportunity to teleport several more times, increasing the distance between him and Blake. After finally getting to a safe place, he let out a sigh of relief. At the unknown time, his face was covered in a cold sweat, he raised his hands in front of his face. His hands, bathed in the blood of the enemies and bringing fear, were trembling wildly.

"This is not the time to be afraid." A.F.O shook his head and tried to calm his emotions. Now was not the time to be afraid, if his fear overcame his reason, he could lose the battle. This was what he wanted in his enemy, waiting for the fear to settle in his heart and produce disgraceful visions.

And A.F.O wouldn't let that happen. He, who has been terrorizing and leading people's lives for years, would not be humiliated by showing that he was full of fear for his life.

That's why he started to think. He needed a plan that could quickly get out of this situation and turn the situation around.

Snap!

But again and again, before he had a chance to think and plan, the sound of a finger snap interrupted his thoughts. A.F.O's head automatically turned to Blake.

In the center of his gaze, Blake was pointing his index finger at the sky with a playful smile. His hair was tossed around, and his clothes swelled by the wind, revealing his impressive muscles for a second.

Despite what had happened, his clothes had not been soiled, nor had he lost his cold and arrogant demeanor. He stood on top of the rubble of two buildings that had been hammered into the ground and watched him.

"Let's try something new."

Blake's advanced brain worked. He developed a new ability at a speed that exceeded the limits of logic. Developing skills from nothing was very easy for him with his enhanced brain activity. All he had to do was think, and after millions of trial and error, a new talent would emerge.

And one of them just popped up.

CRACKLE!

The speed power roared as if noticing his enthusiasm. Elegant white lightning bolts began to emerge from his body. Thin lightning bolts came out from either side of his pupils, converged in the center, and began to dance.

''Up.'' At his command, a thick strip of lightning shot up into the sky and plunged into the dark clouds. The silent dark clouds were once again covered with lightning. This time, however, it had a color and print that the world had never seen before.

"What's it called?" Blake put his hand on his chin. He took a glance at the dark clouds covered with lightning.

A.F.O tried to move or use his Quirk. He could see that Blake was getting ready for something, and he wasn't the type to just stand there while he did it.

Vhummmmm!!

But the abstract pressure emanating from the dark clouds covered with graceful lightning prevented him from moving. He felt like he was carrying the whole sky on his back. The intangible amorphous pressure slumped over his shoulders, making it impossible for him to even think.

"Eureka!'' Blake had a big smile while A.F.O was in pain. He put his arm forward and opened his hand. He said the name of his new talent.

"This ability fits the name of my favorite Moon Rabbit (Luna)'s newly acquired special attack. That's why I'll call it Sky Fall." Blake smiled warmly at the thought of a particular chocolate-skinned bunny. A delicate light appeared in his icy eyes.

However, this expression only lasted a moment. The next moment, his smile disappeared, his gaze became icy, and he waved his hand down with an emotionless expression and said a single word.

''Fall.''

CRACKLEE!!!

Lightning roared. The dark clouds lit up for a moment because of the lightning flashing through the dark clouds. Thin streaks of lightning that spread across the entire black cloud flashed at the same time, solidifying the dark clouds.

Rather than the dark clouds being solidified by the lightning, the lightning that came out of Blake's body and entered the dark clouds had spread to even the smallest piece and surrounded the dark clouds like a bone system, forcibly solidifying the dark clouds.

VHOMMMMMM!!!

Accompanied by thunder and lightning, a piece as big as the city broke from the dark clouds and began to fall to earth. Because of the broken piece, the sky decorated with the moon and stars could easily be seen through the huge hole above the city, creating a unique image of this city.

Unlike the technique Rumi used, this was real the sky falling.
