----------

With Vlad's assistance, All Might and the other Hero instructors left the USJ training ground.

The USJ incident has, for the time being, come to an end.

---

In an underground bar in a chaotic area.

Plop!

The unconscious body of Shigaraki Tomura was released by Kurogiri. A hoarse voice of a middle-aged man came from the television opposite them, "Failed, Kurogiri?"

"I'm sorry, I didn't even have time to retrieve the Nomu."

Kurogiri responded in an apologetic tone.

"Really? It's a shame. We finally created a Nomu with body functions comparable to All Might's. But this failure wasn't without gains, correct?"

"Yes!"

Kurogiri's tone was serious, "Just as you expected, sir, there's a student, Itadori with a truly incredible quirk."

"Oh?"

ALL.FOR.ONE on the television asked in a curious tone, "Tell me more."

"How do I put it…" Kurogiri opened his hands slightly, hesitantly, "One moment, Nomu was attacking him, and in the next, its attack direction shifted to me and Shigaraki-kun."

"Nomu is not under control. This isn't a simple quirk like hypnosis or super speed. Pardon me, but I haven't felt such terrifying power in anyone besides you and All Might."

After hearing Kurogiri's words, ALL.FOR.ONE was silent for a moment, deep in thought, "Is this a quirk I've never encountered before?"

---

On the other side, at U.A. High School.

The school had contacted officers like Naomasa Tsukauchi to investigate, and they apprehended all the criminals who followed Shigaraki Tomura and Kurogiri to wreak havoc.

Outside the school, reporters were in a frenzy.

The chaos that had plagued U.A. recently, which had provided the League of Villains with an opportunity to gather intel, was over.

An enemy attack had taken place at U.A. High School!

This news made the reporters swarm U.A. like jackals after fresh prey.

Fortunately, Tsukauchi and his team were prepared, setting up a cordon at the school gate to keep the crowd at bay.

Officer Naomasa Tsukauchi was currently tallying the casualties and confirmed that, apart from Aizawa and Thirteen, no one was seriously injured.

Although Itadori had sustained serious injuries, he would likely recover fully within a week, thanks to Recovery Girl's treatment. He had already been sent to the infirmary.

"Thankfully, there were no fatalities this time; otherwise, U.A…. no, the entire Hero Society, would have faced a significant crisis." Tsukauchi told the gathered Class A students.

"It's all thanks to All Might."

"That huge hole in the ceiling was caused by All Might, right? He's so strong."

"Did you see Itadori's quirk again?"

"His quirk? Isn't it similar to Tokoyami's?"

"No, no, it's even stranger… I can't quite describe it."

The students in Class A continued discussing the events they had just witnessed.

After offering a few more warnings, Tsukauchi instructed everyone to get on the bus and prepare to return to the school building.

---

"Well, Miss Momo."

As Momo was about to board the bus, Tsukauchi called out to her.

"Hm? What's the matter, Officer Tsukauchi?"

Momo paused, a sinking feeling welling up inside her.

"Please, don't do that again."

Tsukauchi whispered as softly as a mosquito, just loud enough for her to hear.

Momo's face changed, and though she wanted to reply, she saw Tsukauchi turning to join Principal Nezu, Midnight, and other faculty members.

The sun was setting, casting long shadows across the school.

---

In Recovery Girl's office, Itadori sat on an exam table, looking at the back of his right hand, where a chunk of skin had been bitten off but had already healed by about seventy percent.

Momo stood behind him, her furrowed brows betraying her mood.

"Thank you very much."

After applying a final layer of bandage, Itadori stood and prepared to leave with Momo.

"You're really brave, biting off a piece of flesh with your own mouth." Recovery Girl remarked sharply, "Your chaotic quirk reminds me of someone."

Itadori smiled, "Then they must be strong, right?"

"They're strong but a little unhinged." Recovery Girl said ambiguously.

After Itadori and Momo left, Recovery Girl entered the infirmary's inner room.

There lay All Might in his skeletal form.

"You're such a fool!" She chided him.

"Haha, something like this was bound to happen. I just hope my active hours don't shrink too much… Cough!"

Moments after All Might finished speaking, Tsukauchi entered the room. Seeing All Might's condition, he gave a respectful nod, "Thank you for all you've done, All Might."

"Ahh… Sorry to trouble you officers again, Tsukauchi."

All Might struggled to stand.

"I hate to ask this while you're still recovering, but we'll need you at an important meeting tomorrow between the police and U.A. staff." Tsukauchi's tone turned serious.

Hearing this, All Might frowned, but after a moment, he nodded, "I understand."

---

To help students recover after the USJ incident, U.A. gave them the next day off.

That evening, at the Yaoyorozu mansion, Momo's parents arrived.

Momo's mother immediately enveloped her in a tight hug.

"Oh, my precious girl, are you okay? I was so worried…"

"I… I'm fine, Mom. But Itadori…"

Momo gently pulled away from her mother's embrace, reassuring her. She then turned her attention back to Itadori.

While Momo was almost unscathed, Itadori, still bearing wounds on his hands and face despite Recovery Girl's healing, drew more attention.

"Itadori, are you alright?"

Momo's father approached him with concern.

'Do I look okay?' Itadori thought but didn't say. Out loud, he replied, "It's just a minor injury; I'll be fine in a few days."

"Mom, you already know?" Momo asked.

"Yes, the school called, and it was on the news, so your father and I rushed back from work."

"Alright, alright, I'm glad you're both home. Let's eat." Momo's father tried to lighten the mood.

---

Later, under the starry sky in the courtyard, Itadori lay on a lounge chair, admiring the view.

"Itadori-kun…"

Momo's gentle voice came from behind him.

Itadori looked away from the stars and smirked, "Momo, did that policeman say something to you again?"

On their way back, Itadori had already shared with Momo what Tsukauchi had told her outside the USJ training ground.

According to Momo's theory, the police likely had some evidence against her and Itadori for using their quirks illegally.

"When Tsukauchi showed up, I figured this was inevitable."

Itadori pulled Momo closer, letting her lie against him.

"Are you scared?"

Momo blushed, feeling his hands sliding inside her nightgown, "No, it's just… I don't want my parents to…"

The Yaoyorozu family had a long-standing reputation, and any scandal involving her weighed heavily on her conscience.

"It's a good thing Tsukauchi told you. He has no intention of making it public. He's likely discussing it with All Might now, and I'm certain All Might will convince him to forgive my 'offense.'"

Momo looked at him skeptically, unable to believe he could predict this so accurately.

"Let's make a bet. If I'm right…" He leaned in close and whispered something in her ear.

Momo's face turned bright red. If he hadn't been holding her, she would have bolted.

Itadori pulled out his phone and dialed All Might's number.

After a few rings, All Might's voice came over the line, "Hello? Is this Itadori?"

Itadori put the call on speaker, "All Might, I assume you're with Tsukauchi right now?"

"What!?"

All Might was startled, but after a moment, he said in a shocked tone, "How did you know?"

He was indeed discussing Itadori's case with Tsukauchi.

Through the USJ incident, they'd confirmed that the mysterious vigilante behind the recent series of violent encounters was Itadori—and that Momo was likely his accomplice.

All Might's first instinct was to advocate for leniency with Tsukauchi.
