Finding Waldo(Kyudai) and Trap?

_________ POV Narration_________

The villains attacking was sudden. The people of Hosu City were extremely lucky that there were a lot of heroes present on the streets.

Mainly because most of the surrounding cities were patroled by the Yellow Flash. Heroes usually give up on patroling the same places as him, it was to maximize efficiency.

Most heroes hated being outshined(hehe). It wasn't that they hated him, it was just that they also wanted recognition. And getting recognition was impossible when the Symbol of Justice was patrolling.

That Symbol of Justice was well received by the public. It manages to instil a certain kind of fear into the villains, seeing the strongest villain alive torn to shreds repeatedly on live television.

It also made some of the public fear him. But after the situation was explained properly by many trustworthy news publications, the public calmed down.

The Symbol of Peace and The Symbol of Justice are considered similar by many. The Symbol of Peace fought to create a peaceful world. While the Symbol of Justice fights to bring the villains to justice.

In the end, they are both greatly contributing to the peace of the population. Recently, after the Festival, The Yellow Flash became the 2nd Ranked Hero. He forgot to check out his updated ranking, but most people know it already.

You can imagine how the former second-place reacted. He started holding a grudge, but he didn't hate Allan. Just like he didn't hate All Might.

Both him and Gran Torino were first responders in this villain attack. They were chasing a few flying beasts, similar to the ones that had attacked the car transporting Shigaraki.

The public didn't really call them Nomus. The police considered them victims too but had yet to figure out a way to save them.

They were stopped by a strange man. Neither of them recognized him.

"Who are you?!" Screamed Endeavor. Probably hoping that he wasn't a villain. Gran Torino, however, got into position to rush at him. Civilians don't just block the way of heroes, after all.

"You can call me Nine... Keep that name in mind as you die." His face seemed mostly emotionless. It made both Torino and Endeavor flinch a bit, as they noticed the storm gathering above the city.

Lightning was threatening to fall around them as Nine looked on. He was waiting for them to be incapacitated, probably to steal their quirks.

But all the lightning he had called was intercepted. Both he and the heroes looked confused, none of them could see the light beam that had hit the massive lightning bolt.

Nine tried again and again, but he never could manage to bring down anything. The heroes were about to jump in and attack him head-on. But another person landed right in between them.

It was obviously Allan. Everything from his introduction to his mannerisms annoyed Endeavor.

But they surprised Gran Torino a bit. He had seen Allan disregard All for One when they were fighting, everyone found it funny, maybe anti-climactic. But Gran Torino found it terrifying.

He had fought All for One in the past, he knew how strong that man was. And he could tell that he had returned to his prime during that fight with the Yellow Flash.

But it didn't change anything at all. He was just as easily thrown around, as the hero yawned, patted his hair and fixed his glasses from time to time.

It was hard for the old man to imagine someone who has that type of strength. But he was right in front of him.

And he could see it. During this time Allan hadn't even glanced at the villain that was intimidating to both him and Endeavor. The only time he did so, was to tell him to stay put as if scolding a misbehaving child.

He had completely turned that calm and collected man into a mad dog.

Endeavor too could see it clearly. Therefore, he decided to go elsewhere. It was clear that the situation wasn't going to require any more of his attention.

Gran Torino stuck around for a bit longer. Only to watch as Nine was defeated in a single move. There was no tension, no build-up, nothing. Just a kick. That was all it took.

_________ POV Allan_________(hope you didn't mind that I gave a bit more context on what's been happening.)

After finishing off the weirdo I looked at Gran Torino.

"Can I leave making sure he gets detained to you?" I doubt Kyudai will have any way to retrieve this person. He himself will be going behind bars.

The old man sighed a bit and shook his head. "You young ones and your fear of responsibility..." That's mean, I don't fear responsibility, I fear doing paperwork.

"Ok thank you!" Although he didn't technically say yes, I'm sure that's what he meant. I'm not going to listen to him preach about how things were back in the day.

After saying that I flew off. Leaving the old man to deal with the incapacitated villain. Truth is, I doubt he would be able to do much even if he wakes up. All for One could take hits like the one before because he regenerated and had an impact-absorbing quirk.

But any other person will either die or turn comatose. The villain still had some sort of physical strengthening quirk, he won't die, but he definitely won't wake up anytime soon.

Right now, I'm trying to find Kyudai. The method is quite simple. I spread my perception around me and I fly around Japan looking for him. My current limit is around 20 kilometres. With my speed, I should be able to do this in a second.

But the information would overload my mind quite a bit. It would likely make me faint. So this process will likely take me around 1 hour. The Nomus in Hosu City have all been dealt with, so I can leave freely.

I miss not having a body. My brain is the reason I can't use my perception as I did back in the Star Field. It simply wouldn't be able to process more information.

It has been slowly improving, but I doubt It'll ever reach the level it had back then.

I managed to find Kyudai after about 20 minutes. He is about 6 prefectures away. My head does hurt a bit. If I had to scout the entirety of Japan it would feel like someone split it open.

His hideout was deep underground, in the middle of a mountain range. But it's not like my perception is restricted by that.

Besides the Doctor, there were only Nomus in there, they won't be a big issue, they'll stop responding after Kyudai is done in. He is too much of a threat to be left alive.

I called Nezu and told him my location and that I found the base of the ones that attacked Hosu. He seemed a bit surprised by this.

I decided to burn my way down to him with a huge laser. It was fast and effective, I landed right near him. His eyes widened in fear when he saw me.

"PROTECT ME!" He screamed, but the Nomus didn't have time to twitch. Just as the words left his mouth I pierced his chest with a spear.

He looked at me in shock. But then a deranged smile appeared on his lips. "You're late..." He died before he could say anything else. But, the second his heart stopped beating.

A giant explosion engulfed the entire laboratory. The shockwave shook all nearby cities. From a distance, it looked like a nuke had gone off. People were panicking as the Mountain Range was erased.
