Game

Irony.

The only thing they could say after those with power saw all of this.

Was a group of villains going to judge this world?

Some thought that this was ridiculous. Some were scared. Some were in a daze. Some were excited.

It was the case with All-For-One since he clapped his hands happily on the side when he heard Mineta's speech. While he believed in their power, he also knew that it was impossible to dominate this world alone. Naturally, they needed a lot of people.

Hokusai's speech helped him to solve this problem, which was a great thing.

The TV anchor and cameraman could only stand in a daze by their sides, but one thing was for sure, they knew that their life was going to be alright.

The only problem was...

The two looked at All-Might and various other heroes that were trapped on the stake and could only look away.

By now, Hokusai had made another drawing and trapped all the heroes, which he caught with a stake and chains. They were all trapped, including Edge Shot.

However, in Edge Shot's case, Hokusai put him in the small box, so this ninja cosplay-like hero wouldn't be able to escape.

Hokusai and All-For-One had a lot of hostages around them, and their condition was still okay, so they weren't in a hurry.

"Mineta-kun, how long are you going to make us wait? I don't have much patience, you know?" Hokusai asked while looking at Hokusai, who was still with his girlfriends.

All-For-One and the black All-Might were also looking in their directions.

While the girls were scared, Mineta stood in front of them. He sighed and said, "Go."

"No!"

They were scared, but they stubbornly stopped him since they knew if they let go of him, they might be able to meet him again in the future.

He wanted to say something, but Ibara said, "No! No matter what, I won't let you go!" He looked at Ibara for a moment and looked at the rest, who also showed a similar expression. He let out a long sigh and said, "Sorry." Then, suddenly, he wrapped all of them with his substance and bounced them away toward the group of police, who helped the people to evacuate from this place.

"Minoru!"

Their screams were swallowed before they were forcefully moved by him.

His figure was clearly shown on the camera.

It was far from good.

Mineta was clearly injured, with many wounds on his body. Even blood could be seen dripping from his entire body, but he walked toward them unwaveringly. He glanced at Ryukyu, who also looked at him with tears, and shouted, "Don't come here!"

"We're alright!"

"Just go! Ignore us!"

Those heroes, who had been caught, screamed one by one.

How could they let Mineta come?

How could they let him save them?

Yet, their words were useless.

"Geez, you guys are too noisy." Hokusai drew once again and closed their mouths with a mouth gag before he looked at Mineta. "It's great that you don't run away."

"If I run away, what will you do?"

"I will kill all of them."

"?!"

His answer was simple, but it brought a chill to all of them.

"You think it is unfair? Do you think that I am evil? No. They have tried to beat me and plan to put me in jail. It's unfair. They have tried to rob my right to live, so it is only fair for me to retaliate, right? You think so, right?"

"I'm not here to hear your nonsense." Mineta looked at Hokusai coldly and asked, "So, what do you want? How can you let go of them?"

"Join us."

"....."

"...if I join you, then you will let them go?"

"No."

"..."

"I am not playing with you, but it isn't fair, right? I have been beaten by them! Look, even Sensei is all beaten up. If I am not here, he might be killed!"

"That's true. They're so cruel."

All-For-One also nodded, following Hokusai's act.

The two of them pictured themselves as great victims, the target of the tragedy of this world. They just wanted to stay alive, yet why were they portrayed as villains?

"Can you see the mirror before you say all of that?" Mineta was speechless by their shamelessness.

"Geez, you're a tough cookie, right?" Hokusai sighed and said, "Don't you see that our purpose is for the great thing for everyone? This world is rotten. Many people can only swallow the injustice they receive. A hero will only help people in public, so they can gain popularity. People will also ignore each other because they expect a hero to do something. This peace, which everyone has thought of as something granted, is also the same!

"The peace of the majority is being paid by the peace of the minority! Many people are suffering! Can't you hear them cry? We're all going to fix this rotten world. No, someone has to do it!"

"That person is you?"

"Yes."

Hokusai nodded and said, "But I can't do it alone. I, no, we need your help to do it, so will you help us, Mineta Minoru-kun?"

"..."

At this moment, no one said anything. Everyone was in silence.

Naturally, everyone knew Mineta Minoru since his appearance at the Sports Festival was unforgettable.

A 50-meter giant wasn't something that everyone thought they could defeat.

Many even thought of him as the next symbol of peace.

However, in front of Hokusai's seduction, they were scared, wondering whether Mineta would follow the League of Villains since, as of now, many were swayed by the words of Hokusai.

Mineta looked at Hokusai and said, "Sorry, I have to refuse."

"Why? Don't you care about them? Do you want to ignore those who have become the tragedy of this society?"

"Because I believe that your method isn't justice. What you do is evil. What you will do will cause a lot of casualties and harm. Many people will die, and I can't let you do that."

"For those of us climbing to the top of the food chain, there can be no mercy. There is but one rule: hunt or be hunted." Hokusai sneered and said, "But don't you think we're better? We are more straightforward. There is no lie. There is no hypocrisy."

"Even so, I believe your method is wrong," Mineta said firmly.

However, All-For-One, who was on the side, frowned since he knew that Mineta was telling the truth. He had stolen a Quirk, which allowed one to see whether someone was lying or not, but from the beginning to the end, he could tell that Mineta wasn't lying, which made him confused, but at the same time, he knew that it was also useless to keep him.

Power is a great thing.

But a power that couldn't be used by him was useless.

'It's better to clear Mineta up now, or else he might cause trouble in the future.'

All-For-One wanted to kill Mineta since he knew how strong Mineta's potential was, but he decided to leave everything to Hokusai since he knew that Hokusai also understood him.

"I see... that's a shame." Hokusai sighed and said, "By the way, you want to save all of them, right?"

"...you still want me to join you?"

"No, I have given up on that." Hokusai shook his head and smiled. "So, how about we play a game?"

"A game?"

"Yes." Hokusai looked at everyone with a bright smile and said, "If you can win this game, I will let all of them go."
