Many miles from the city, the Nomu flew and crashed into the woods, where Yuta was free to fight without causing harm or protecting anyone. The Nomu stood up from the ground and went into combat mode as it leaped towards Yuta. The ground beneath the Nomu cracked due to the immense force from its legs.

Yuta countered Nomu's punch with a huge sand fist that emerged from the ground. A clone of Yuta sprouted out from the ground behind the Nomu, jumped, and delivered a roundhouse kick, sending the Nomu flying back. As Yuta's clone rapidly rebuilt itself from sand and attacked the Nomu, the Nomu slammed its fist against a dry tree next to it, blasting the tree into the air.

Nomu became confused about who the real Yuta was when he saw him charging forward with his clone. After a brief moment of hesitation, Yuta seized the opportunity to strike, delivering a clean hit that caused the Nomu to stumble backward. Yuta then sent a series of countless sand bullets flying at a decent speed, hitting the Nomu from every angle. The Nomu screeched in pain.

The Nomu slammed its fist into the ground, causing Yuta and his clone to leap backward and engulf the entire area in dust. Yuta saw trees flying through the dust at a rapid pace and managed to shield himself at the last second. The Nomu leaped toward Yuta as fast as it could and slammed its fist against him, sending Yuta crashing through the trees.

"Shit!!" Yuta exclaimed.

Yuta was still on the ground when the Nomu sprang forward and slammed its fist at him. He rolled swiftly to his right as Yuta swung his right palm in the air, slicing Nomu's chest with a sand blade. Before the Nomu could attack again, Yuta's clone struck it from behind, pushing the Nomu forward. Yuta followed up with an uppercut, sending the Nomu flying upward. Yuta's clone flared up and appeared in the air, slamming its right fist against the exposed brain of Nomu.

The Nomu crashed through the trees and hit the ground, the impact causing Yuta to skid backward. The Nomu screeched in rage, slamming its fists together and clearing the dust with the force of the impact.

"I think we made daddy angry," Yuta scoffed, seeing the Nomu standing a few meters away from him and his clone. The clone flared and appeared beside the Nomu, stabbing it in the neck with a sand dagger. The Nomu swung its hand toward Yuta's clone, which clung onto it. Yuta flicked his fingers, slicing the Nomu's arm with a sand blade as fast as he could.

When the Nomu turned to face Yuta, purple blood splattered out. Yuta then turned and slapped his own butt to taunt Nomu before delivering the final blow. The Nomu leaped and clenched its left fist, slamming it toward Yuta, who countered it with a sand fist. Long spikes sprouted from the sand fist and struck Nomu's chest, but Nomu easily smashed them into pieces. Some spikes clung to the Nomu's chest as purple blood gushed out, but Yuta could see it didn't slow the Nomu down at all.

'Something feels off—' Yuta thought, just before he saw himself crashing through the trees in the forest and hitting the ground. Blood surged out of Yuta's mouth as he wiped it off, glancing at Nomu walking toward him. The Nomu was nowhere to be seen when Yuta blinked; it appeared in front of him and kicked him right in the face, sending him flying meters away.

"Did he just power up?" Yuta wondered as he jolted off the ground. "Interesting!" Yuta took a deep breath and let it out slowly, repeating the process. He quickly pivoted out of the way as the Nomu charged at him with full speed. Yuta was barely able to keep up with Nomu's immense speed, feeling overwhelmed by it.

Both Yuta and Nomu, who didn't seem to care about their surroundings, bulldozed through the forest's trees throughout the battle. Yuta could feel the adrenaline coursing through his veins, but fatigue began to kick in as he started breathing heavily. Nomu's body was filled with scars from Yuta's attacks, but it showed no sign of weakness.

'I've got to end this as fast as I can,' Yuta thought as he picked himself up from the ground.

"Sand Sables!!" Yuta exclaimed, clasping both hands together. Grains of sand sprouted from the ground and formed a whirlwind tornado that spun, slicing all the trees around. Yuta commanded the sand as it spun forward toward the Nomu, engulfing him. Yuta heard a loud screech coming from the Nomu inside the whirlwind-like tornado.

Yuta deflated the sand tornado as the Nomu fell and crashed into the ground. Yuta quickly used his quirk again, using sand to hold Nomu's legs and left hand to the ground. Nomu tried to break free, but it was too late. With a sand spike in his hands, Yuta screamed, jumped upward, and landed toward the Nomu, slicing apart its brain with the spike.

Yuta shattered Nomu's brain, causing it to fall dead. He realized that these monsters would not perish unless their brains were destroyed. Yuta's face was still plastered with sand as he struggled to steady his breathing. He had dealt with two Nomu in a day, but luckily for him, they didn't have quirks that allowed them to absorb impact or regenerate.

The forest had been bulldozed by their attacks, and all the neighboring trees were destroyed. The forest was eerily silent. The thick scent of wood lingered in the air, carried by the faint breeze that rustled through the shattered branches. Yuta stood in the center of the destruction, his chest rising and falling heavily as he tried to steady his breathing. His body ached, his muscles screamed in protest, and his sand-covered hands trembled from the aftershocks of the battle.

He had won. And yet, the victory felt... hollow.

He let out a sigh as he fell face-first onto the ground to regain his composure and stamina. He could hear sirens and explosions coming from the town, as the forest he had just fought in was nearby. After a couple of minutes of regaining his stamina, Yuta jolted off the ground and quickly flew upward, grains of sand forming a whirlwind-like tornado around his legs.

He was finally able to get a proper view of the forest he had fought in and saw the massive destruction. If he had fought this Nomu in the city, the destruction of buildings and roads would have been catastrophic. He charged toward the scene of the current explosion and landed on a seven-story building. The building was massive and surrounded by tall skyscrapers.

He crouched down on top of the building and observed the situation. He saw cars and houses on fire, stores and buildings destroyed, and some heroes lying motionless on the ground. "What the hell is still going on?" he muttered to himself, seeing pro heroes being taken out easily by whoever was still on a rampage in the city.

Elsewhere, Shigaraki and Kurogiri stood on top of a random building, watching the rampage and destruction. Houses and buildings were on fire as Shigaraki began laughing out loud. "Hey, Kurogiri, don't you think those Nomu are doing a great job?"

"Yes, they are. Seeing the destruction and explosions, I don't think any random heroes could stop them."

"All Might! Why hasn't the fool arrived yet?"

"Why don't we go take a quick look and see for ourselves?" Kurogiri muttered.

"Let's go!" Kurogiri opened a warp gate, and they both walked inside. Meanwhile, Stain had taken down many heroes, thanks to Shigaraki using Nomu to run around the city causing chaos.

Yuta leaped down from the building and walked slowly, scouting the area with his eyes and keeping his guard up for any surprise attacks. He could see the massive destruction, with heroes, civilians, and police officers lying motionless on the ground. Yuta removed debris of iron and stones from one of the heroes and placed his hand on the hero's pulse to check if he was still breathing. But no—he was dead.

Yuta began to advance down the streets, tilting his head left and right to ensure his surroundings were safe. He heard the sound of gunshots to his left and quickly sprinted over as fast as he could. He arrived at the scene and saw something that caught his attention: another Nomu in action.

"What the hell?!!" he muttered to himself as he saw police officers and some pro heroes trying to fight a Nomu with four eyes on its exposed brain.

"Holy shit!!..."
