MHA: GAMER PATH

Chapter 97: Hideout Raid Arc (5)

~Ren Y. POV~

[Nomu Factory Warehouse, Kamino Ward, Yokohama, Japan]

Arriving at the Kamino Ward inside Yokohama City, I took my time to venture around the area, admiring the view before the chaos went down. Made sure to keep my alibi for coming here and getting receipts in the process. Keeping my eyes on everyone, I saw that they changed their attention to look above.

Seeing what they were watching, I realized they were watching the public news of UA apologizing to the public for their lack of support. And there were a few of All for One's rats as one of the reporters began asking slandering questions at the principal.

I merely scoffed at the sheep running their mouths. Focusing on my task at hand, I began to see Mt. Lady using her Quirk, having to put on a car acting as a shoe… That must be the most wasteful way to attack a building.

But my eyes land on the area to see not only Mt. Lady but also other heroes. Gang Orca, Best Jeanist, and the hero team of the Wild, Wild Pussycats involving Tiger and Ragdoll in the group.

Hmm… I can only assume they came here to ensure everything goes right. With Ragdoll Quirk [Search] being able to specifically target the Quirk Factor and DNA of a person if used on someone who has multiple in their system, they will be able to recognize each as an individual option.

I can guess that's how they figured out the Nomu Factory with her support. But it also means that All for One could gain her Quirk. But hey, at least I can see Mt. Lady raise her ass by one leg before slamming it down, destroying the warehouse.

*THOOM*

Slamming her foot through and bending her position to the knees with her ass sticking out, I chuckled, getting a good view of the top of the building where the action was happening. I call that a nice ass.

But the Nomu's within, according to The Doctor's info, was in a state of hibernation. They are inactive without a command as I focused my hearing on their words, with Best Jeanist saying in a professional tone, capturing the Nomu's with his Quirk [Fiber Master], "Nomu storage hangar captured and secured."

Focusing my attention as I squinted my eyes, I saw that Mt. Lady began collecting the Nomu in a disgusted tone and said, "Ewww! Are these things alive? Isn't it strange for a job to be this easy, Jeanist? Guess I should've gone with All Might's team."

Best Jeanist took control of the situation as the Riot Squad slowly came in, bringing the Iron Maidens in a stern tone, "You must learn to distinguish between difficult and important, you novice. Riot Squad, bring in the Iron Maidens, and do it quickly – "

*GUSH*

Suddenly, Ragdoll barfed out a black substance, immediately gaining the alarmed attention of Tiger, "Wha – no, Ragdoll!!"

*Burst*

She was instantly teleported away thanks to All for One's latest Quirk addition, scowling at this. [Warping] Such a unique and handy Quirk, but it seems like All for One managed to get what he wanted.

But my eyes soon drifted towards a new figure within the Nomu Factory. Remaining neutral and not reacting to his lie detection, Quirk, I saw an ominous red and black glow, which didn't go unnoticed by the heroes, followed by a scream, "AHHHHH…!!"

*SWOOOSH*

*THUD*

Tiger was the first to react, grabbing Ragdoll as he yelled, alarmed asking in a concerned tone, "Ragdoll! Come on, talk to me!!"

Gang Orca looked at them, concerned, seeing the unconscious expression on her face, but said in relief, "Your teammate? Looks like she's breathing, so that's a relief."

But Tiger gripped her tighter, being unresponsive. A side effect of [All for One] being a victim is when a Quirk is stolen, the victim becomes disoriented and immobile for a short time. So, she's out of the fight… and hero career.

Maybe not entirely if I can intervene but I'll cross that bridge when I get there. But attention returns to the concerned cries of Tiger exclaiming out loud, "But look at her… she's… what did they do to you? Ragdoll!!"

*Tmp*

But the footsteps and chilling voice within the warehouse brought me chills listening to All for One as he said, "Sorry, Tiger, but I've had my eye on her Quirk for quite a while… I was disappointed they didn't deliver her. But I'm very happy that we met, it is just too good… I had to have it."

Stepping out from the shadow came a sleek dark three-piece suit, topped with a black helmet that obscured his entire face. The boogie man of the Villain World and major antagonist AFO.

[Observe].

[All for One (Shigaraki) Lv.? Symbol of Evil

Description: Once Japan's most powerful villain and All Might's arch-nemesis, his goal was to steal One for All, the Quirk that originally belonged to his younger twin brother and the only Quirk that could oppose him. He is the mentor of Tomura Shigaraki, having spent the young villain's life-shaping him into a successor and a vessel for his power in a plan to eventually conquer the world as a self-proclaimed demon lord.]

*FWIP*

Jeanist and Gang Orca reacted, preparing for battle, as the orca man said in a serious tone, "Stop. Not another step."

However, All for One merely steps forward, unleashing an oppressive aura merely around his presence as he continues speaking, "Ever since I was reduced to this… I haven't been able to stock up as many as before…"

*Shf*

*SKWEEZ*

Activating his Quirk, Best Jeanist 'captured' All for One as Mt. Lady scolds him in an alarmed tone, "Jeanist! What if he's just a civilian…?"

Struggling, he 'contained' All for One temporarily as he spoke in a serious tone to the novice as he puts it, "Use your head. A moment's hesitation could allow the enemy to turn the tables on us. We mustn't allow… a villain to pull any tricks."

*BOOOOM*

Hiding behind a signboard, I felt a chill run down my spine as I saw the destruction unfold in front of me. A big explosion of air leveled the warehouse and a few buildings in its path almost hitting the one I was hiding in.

In the aftermath of the explosion of what seemed to be pressurized air, All for One spoke in a deep tone bringing chills listening to him, "Tomura's only just learned to think for himself… to carve his own path forward. So, if possible, I'd like to keep anyone from interfering with that."

I felt my body shake. Before I could even look, whatever happened was over in an instant. An instant?

Heck… it took less than a second! But it was enough time for that man to fill me with an utter fear of death.

*Thm*

*Thm*

I felt my heart raced as an uncontrollable sensation of fear crawled over my body. It was really –

[Ding!]

[The skill [Indominable Spirit] has countered [Depressing Aura]!]

And I'm now regaining my composure. I exhaled, calming my breathing down as All for One said confidentially, "Well… shall we begin?"

*WHOOSH*

*CLAP*

*CLAP*

Admiring his handy work All for One began to speak up enjoying the moment of showing his overpowered abilities in a happy tone, "That's the #4 Hero for you!! Best Jeanist!! I was planning to blast them all straight to hell!! But you grabbed them by their clothes and threw them aside in the nick of time! Such quick decision-making, such technique… such incredible reflexes!"

*GUSH*

*FWMP*

Seeing that Best Jeanist acted trying to fight back despite his heavy injuries sending fiber strings. But seeing the moment as All for One raised his hand, I acted, seeing that All Might would come, I had to stall.

But I'm not positive that All for One would leave Best Jeanist alive. If I were him, I would've aimed for the head.

*SWF*

*BOOM*

Opening a portal now using [Wormhole], All for One launched his [Air Blast] from the palm of his hand into the portal. I reopened another one from the side, surprising all as he skidded across back from his attack as Best Jeanist struggled to get up.

Now, being aware of my presence, he shouted out loud, looking at my hiding place ahead, ignoring Best Jeanist, his voice echoing throughout the township as residents peeked out their windows in fear, "Ren Yuki! I knew you'd come here! You just couldn't resist coming here now, would you? Hahahaha…!!"

Contemplating my choices of facing the monster or hiding, I wasn't given much of a choice as All for One spoke up, levitating out of Best Jeanist range, "Still going to hide like a rat? You do know that I can see you, right?"

Tch. Biting my lip, I decided to make an appearance, opening a portal. No use hiding with him using [Search].

*Swf*

Exiting through near Best Jeanist hardly able to stand despite his injuries, "Kid… what the hell are you– "

Placing my hand over his shoulder I had my clones come to pick up the other heroes as they portal out of harm's way. But for him, I used [Cellular Activation] to heal his wounds immediately as I responded in a stern tone, "No choice. It was either he came to me with citizens around, or I came to him with none as his [Search] Quirk made it impossible to hide from him. I couldn't risk him killing you on a chance."

Best Jeanist shot a glare at the villain, seeing arguing with me was hopeless because I was right in this case. If All for One isn't stopped here, then his coming to me is a very likely outcome.

At the very least, I made sure the other pro heroes were out of the way. My clones already began healing them, informing them of the situation when they woke up.

*Shomp*

*Shomp*

*Shomp*

It was at that moment the rest of the League of Villains began to appear from All for One's [Warping] Quirk. They appeared behind us. Jeanist expression changed as the situation was going south.

All for One took his attention towards Tomura onto ground level, destroying his cuffs in the process using a telekinesis-type Quirk in a caring tone, "You've failed again, Tomura. But you mustn't lose heart. There will be more chances to set things right. That's why I've brought along your little band. So, try again. That's what I'm here to help you to do. It's… all for you."

Readying myself for the worst, I was prepared to fight. Best Jeanist would probably lay down his life to protect me if he could.

Fortunately, All for One briefly stopped as his gaze shifted above in an annoyed tone, "… I knew you'd come…"

*BANG*

A loud crashing sound was heard as the sheer wind force between All Might and All for One clashed, breaking the ground around them with All Might yelling out loud, "I'll have you return, my master grandson, All for One!"

Holding his own All for One, he spoke out in an annoyed tone at his nemesis, "Here to kill me again? All Might? What took you so long?"

*WHAM*

The resulting clash of the two creates a shockwave that sends everyone else back. The structures nearby broke, cracking the buildings as the already evacuating residents got thrown off their feet.

At that moment, I grabbed onto Best Jeanist, escaping via [Wormhole] as All for One looked in our direction, annoyed, muttering in a cold tone, "I'll get you soon enough, boy… mark my words."

*Shiver*

I felt a shiver when he mentioned that. But fortunately, that made All Might piss off, arguing back in a determined tone, "You'll do nothing to him All for One!!!! Because…. for I am here!!!!!"

*SMASH*

*BOOOOM*

Another clash between the two sent shockwaves all around as All for One yelled to Kurorgiri and Tomura as I portal out of the situation with Jeanist, "Kurogiri, take them and go! Always think ahead, Tomura. You still have much room to grow. For it'll be your turn next… you will continue this war."

*Swf*

Exiting from the dangerous battle, the extras and I fled through our respective escapes as another clash between All for One and All Might erupted. I could only grit my teeth in bitter frustration, thinking I could help.

No. I can just not in the way everyone thinks. For now, I'll focus on recovering the heroes and evacuating the people nearby out of danger.
