Final Boss

Recently, Renault had started to feel that his skills were leaning toward a different direction. He was growing more and more fond of using his black hole ability, which was given to him by Evolto. As for Vector Manipulation, he merely used it for abilities like reflection.

Although both abilities could cause similar levels of damage in a real battle, he was reluctant to use Vector Manipulation.

Apart from reflection, using Vector Manipulation to defeat someone seemed too simplistic and too easy.

Just like before, during the forest camp incident, he effortlessly defended against any attacks using reflection and then closed in on his opponents. With a gentle manipulation of their blood flow, he could incapacitate them instantly.

The forest camp incident was the only time he had used such an aggressive approach so blatantly in his entire life. Naturally, he was called in for a conversation with Aizawa and Principal Nezu after the event. However, since the incident occurred shortly before All Might's battle in Kamino, Renault only received a few words of caution, and he was advised not to use his abilities recklessly.

He himself knew that if he were to employ Vector Manipulation in a different manner, its destructive power would rival that of any Quirk.

However, after the battle of Kamino, whether it was going out at night to cause trouble, participating in the provisional hero license exam, or engaging in off-campus work study, he had refrained from using his abilities in that way.

Essentially, he was not a killer. He also didn't possess the same sense of duty as All Might did as a Pro Hero. His goal was to apprehend criminals, earn a decent income, and gain some recognition.

However, he had his limits. When it came to his friends, schoolmates, and situations he couldn't tolerate, he wouldn't hesitate to take action.

Now, facing the Shie Hassaikai and Chisaki Kai, who used a little girl as experimental goods, he was no longer willing to consider such individuals as human.

With narrowed eyes, he charged forward and said, "Thanks to your boss, Chisaki Kai, I've decided to let you experience the ability I've always disliked using."

Faced with Renault's charge, even though he hadn't assumed any attacking stance, the two masked people on the other side inexplicably felt a chill down their spines.

A killing intent?

How could that be! Isn't he just a rookie hero brat?

Although they were doubtful, they didn't dare to relax. Anyone who could rise to their level within the Shie Hassaikai undoubtedly possessed incredible reactions.

Lifting his hands and aiming his pistols directly at the charging Renault, the black-masked man rapidly retreated while continuously pulling the trigger.

*BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!*

Five consecutive bullets accurately struck Renault.

However...

The moment he was hit, the bullets were completely bounced back by the reflection emanating from his body. Two bullets even rebounded directly back to their original path, causing the black-masked man holding the gun to quickly dodge them.

"One is permeation, the other is reflection. They are indeed two troublesome little devils!"

"Hahaha, *burp~* don't ya forget I'm right here too, ya know~ *hiccup*" At this moment, hanging upside down above the corridor, the white-masked man, who had already discarded his bottle and held several throwing knives, laughed while singing a drinking song silently, activating his own Quirk that covered Renault below.

"Can ya main'tain yer balance?" The white-masked man said while directly flinging the throwing knives in his hand.

Renault, who had stopped in his tracks, didn't even lift his head. He swatted away the three incoming throwing knives with a single motion of his hand, and at the same time, stomped his foot, causing a stone pillar to emerge from the ground and collide with the villain diagonally above.

"Balance?" Renault took a deep breath, placed one hand behind his back, and gestured towards Togata behind him. Sneering, he added, "Disappointing. I initially believed your strength to be tough, but now it seems this yakuza organization is only so-so."

"What?!"

"Yer little brat, it seems ya don't know how to spell the word 'deaaath'!"

Just as they were about to say a few arrogant words, suddenly, the two masked people noticed Renault gently swaying in front of them, and then he disappeared.

The black-masked man on the ground tensed, immediately turning around and remaining vigilant in all directions.

"Aah?!!!"

*BOOM!!!*

*THUD!*

Suddenly, a loud noise rang out from above the black-masked man's head, followed by the sound of an object falling near his ears.

Turning his head to the side, he saw his white-masked companion, who had just sneakily attacked Togata and causing the latter to lose balance was now lying on the ground, bleeding with limbs twisted in a grotesque manner.

"Run... away..."

The fragmented words had just escaped when the black-masked man felt a hand gripping his neck.

Leaning close to the man's ear, Renault spoke in a tone devoid of any emotion, "Do you know? Although I aspire to become a Pro Hero, I don't mind changing into a demon when necessary to deal with scum like you. Just wait, your boss will be next."

The next moment, without any exaggerated sound effects or screams, the walls around were directly covered in blood.

There were no bloodstains on his body; Renault threw the guy who was barely breathing onto the ground and continued charging forward.

At that moment, Evolto's voice could also be heard in his ears.

"This is more like it. When dealing with this kind of organization, there should be no mercy."

Sento's voice timely interjected, "It's hard to take that statement seriously when it comes from you. Don't forget what you've done in the past."

"Hahaha, I never denied my actions. But after all, I'm not human. Different races have different concepts and common sense. And what's happening now is the result of humans fighting among themselves, which even I find foolish and disdainful."

"And, what about you who killed your own comrades?"

"I had no choice. He wanted to eliminate me first. Ah, Renault, it seems like the final boss has been stolen by your friend."

Amid Evolto's mockery, Renault also noticed the battle taking place not far ahead.

Togata, despite having his sense of balance disrupted by the white-masked villain's manipulation, let's not forget the arduous training he underwent before attaining his current strength. Due to the nature of his Quirk, Permeation, he was already accustomed to this kind of situation.

"CHISAKI!"

With Togata's roar, he kicked out with one leg, directly passing through Eri's head with permeation and sending the white-robed masked man holding her flying.

He held Eri tightly in his arms as Togata warily gazed at Chisaki ahead.

"Senpai, well done."

Renault also smiled as he stood beside Togata, his eyes fixed on the little girl nestled in Togata's embrace.
