[KIRISHIMA]
Uh-- Midoriya! Good morning.
Are you headed off to
your work study, too?
Cool, so'm I!
Yeah, I finally got
called in again.
Feels like it's been forever.
I wonder why they said not
to wear our costumes, though.
[OCHACO]
Oh! Good morning, guys!
You going in today?
--[IZUKU] Yeah.
--Huh, so are we.
That's kinda weird.
Hey. Us, too!
Wanna walk to the
station together?
[OCHACO] Ooh! Please!
I mean, if you don't mind.
[IZUKU]
We appreciate it!
[KIRISHIMA]
What's with all the heroes?
Wait, we're going the same way?
I thought you were
working in Kansai.
Usually, yeah,
but I guess we're meeting
someplace different today.
What a coincidence. Us, too.
[IZUKU]
Everyone's on the same train.
Going to the same station.
This is kinda weird.
[IZUKU] We're going
in the same direction.
Even turning at the same corner.
Heyo!
[IZUKU]
The Big Three are all here?
What in the world?
What's going on?
[gasps]
[IZUKU]
Gran Torino? And Mr. Aizawa?
The Dragoon Hero: Ryukyu.
The BMI Hero: Fat Gum,
Rock Lock, Kesagiri Man,
and Mr. Brave.
All these incredible
people in the same room.
From big-sh*t pros to
more minor, local heroes.
This is amazing!
Whatever's happening,
it must be big.
[HADO]
Hey, what's the scoop?
What's going on?
Talk to me, Ryukyu!
I mean, I know you said there's
a meeting, but what's it about?
Patience, Nejire.
You, too, Mr. Aizawa?
I'm confused. Why are you here?
I was called in last
minute for this thing.
I think I've got a rough
idea of what it's about.
[RYUKYU]
You should, too.
Remember what I told you, girls?
Students or not, you've already
proved yourselves
to be valuable assets.
We may even have a role for you
in a new case that's come up.
[OCHACO, TSUYU]
It's about the new case!
[RYUKYU]
We're all here, Nighteye.
Let's get started.
Thanks to the information
provided by all of you,
our investigation has
progressed substantially.
We've invited you all here
for a joint conference
to share the intel
we've acquired.
Regarding the yakuza
group Shie Hassaikai
and what we believe
they might be planning.
Hold on, I feel like
I'm missin' something
really important here.
Shie H'what now?
Some bad guys're planning
to do some bad things.
And they've called a meeting
so we can talk it all out.
Trust me. You two are
very much involved.
[BUBBLE GIRL] All right,
let's begin at the beginning.
For the past couple
of weeks now,
those of us at Nighteye Agency
have been conducting
an investigation
into Shie Hassaikai,
a small but organized
group of criminals.
[KESAGIRI MAN]
What prompted this?
[BUBBLE GIRL] An accident
involving a g*ng of thieves
called the Reservoir Dogs.
[MR. BRAVE]
Yeah, I heard about that.
[BUBBLE GIRL] The police thought
the whole thing was an accident,
but there were a number of
details that didn't add up,
so we began tailing them.
[CENTIPEDER] In my capacity
as a Nighteye Agency sidekick,
I began following leads
to see what I could uncover.
I found that, in the past year,
the members of Shie Hassaikai
have had increased contact
with those outside
of their organization,
including other groups
whose business dealings
are less than reputable.
Their aim seemed to be expanding
their organization and
enriching its coffers.
Shortly after our
investigation began,
they made contact with a member
of the League of Villains.
Jin Bubaigawara,
villain name: Twice.
They were wary of being tailed,
so I was unable to follow them,
but with the help of the police,
I confirmed that an
altercation had occurred
between the two groups.
That'd be about
when they decided
to reach out to
Tsukauchi and me.
Figured we'd be able to assist,
given the League's involvement.
[KESAGIRI MAN]
Where is Tsukauchi?
Follow-ups with some
other eyewitnesses.
Y'know, cop stuff.
Sorry, kid.
I didn't see something
like this coming.
I've got a bad feeling
that things are
about to get ugly.
I don't care if they
do. I wanna help.
Hold up, you know him?
Oh, Grand Torino? I did
my internship with him.
[KIRISHIMA] That's the old man
who was with All Might
in Kamino! Midoriya
knows some big g*ns.
Go on, Bubble Girl.
So, after all that went down,
we posted a notice on the
HN requesting assistance.
[CENTIPEDER]
I think we can skip that part.
Sorry!
What's the "HN"?
Stands for Hero Network.
It's an online service that can
only be accessed by pros.
You can see what all the
heroes in the country are up to,
and you can ask for help
from people whose Quirks
might come in handy.
Does anybody wanna tell me why
a buncha high school kids were
invited to this conference?
I don't care if
they are from UA.
If we have to keep stopping
to explain this stuff,
we'll never get
to the actual plan.
[FAT GUM]
Don't say that.
These two have important
information to pass along.
Um, we do?
[AMAJIKI]
I wanna go home.
Anyway, I see a lot
of new faces,
so let me introduce myself.
Nice to meetcha. I'm Fat Gum.
[BOTH]
He's so cute and squishy.
Hah! Who wants candy?
Hassaikai's movements
are hard to trace,
but we suspect one of their
main sources of income
is illegal drug sales.
So I requested
help from heroes
who have some expertise
in that area.
[KIRISHIMA]
Oh, yeah, he said something
about catching smugglers.
Yup, I brought in my
fair share of drug dealers
back in the day, and at
Red Riot's debut fight,
he proved he could, too!
[FAT GUM] Tamaki was sh*t,
and the b*llet contained
some kinda drug I've
never heard of before.
One that destroys Quirks.
[KESAGIRI MAN]
Destroys Quirks?
Whoa, what? Tamaki,
you're okay, right?
Yeah, the stuff wore
off while I slept.
Here, look.
I've got this cow
hoof and everything.
[MIRIO] Guess we know what
you had for breakfast!
I'm glad to know the effects
aren't permanent at least.
So this stuff doesn't
zap a Quirk for good.
[SIR NIGHTEYE]
No.
But Eraser Head has
some further insight.
It doesn't seem
to function exactly
like my Erasure does.
Since I'm not actually
attacking the Quirk directly.
What we call a Quirk
is an extraordinary addition
to an ordinary human body.
Those additions are collectively
referred to as "Quirk genes."
I can shield those
genes and temporarily
block their expression, but I
don't actually damage them.
But after Tamaki here was sh*t,
we brought him to the
hospital, and they found
that his Quirk genes
had sustained damage.
Fortunately, they seem to
have healed on their own,
and he's back to normal now.
What do we know
about the substance
he was sh*t with?
[FAT GUM] Whatever it was didn't
harm the rest of his body.
Nothing but his Quirk
was impaired in any way.
The guy who sh*t him clammed up.
He won't say a word.
And the round that hit
Tamaki was totally spent.
However, Kirishima
bravely defended Tamaki
from a b*llet, which then
bounced off his own body
and should now provide us
with a viable sample.
Whoa, I did that?
Really? That's crazy!
[KIRISHIMA]
I have no idea what's going on.
Wow, awesome job, Kirishima!
That's so cool!
Oh, yeah. His Quirk.
It's Hardening, right?
And when we analyzed the
substance from the b*llet,
we discovered something that
made me sick to my stomach.
It contained human
blood and cells.
[heartbeats]
[IZUKU]
Human blood?
[gasps]
Sounds like something
out of a scary movie.
In other words, that effect
came from a person.
From someone's power.
A Quirk that can destroy Quirks.
[MASKED HERO] I'm not
connecting the dots, here.
How is all this
related to Hassaikai?
[FAT GUM] The man who sh*t
Tamaki used an illegal drug
to boost his Quirk during
his fight with Kirishima.
The distribution channels
for stuff like that
are complex. Although things've
shrunk since the old days,
dr*gs still pass through
various people and organizations
before they finally
reach the end user.
There's no concrete
evidence that Hassaikai
handled the drug, but we know
for a fact that they interacted
with one of the middlemen
responsible for moving it.
[MASKED HERO]
That's all?
[SIR NIGHTEYE] The other day,
Ryukyu's team broke up a fight
between two villain groups.
One of those groups
was controlled by
the intermediary organization
that Fat Gum just mentioned.
[RYUKYU] One of the two
giants had been given
an inferior drug that
didn't last long.
[KESAGIRI MAN] There have
been a rash of g*ng-related
crimes recently, and
most could be connected
to the Hassaikai if
you tried hard enough.
[MASKED HERO] Which is what
it seems like you're doing:
trying to make them guilty.
Don't you have anything that
implicates them more clearly?
[BOTH gasp]
[SIR NIGHTEYE] Their young head,
Chisaki: Quirk, Overhaul.
With this power, he can
disassemble things
and then reassemble them.
A Quirk that allows him to
completely break down matter.
And a b*llet that can
break down Quirks.
[BOTH gasp]
[ERI]
Please... Please don't go.
[SIR NIGHTEYE] Chisaki
has a daughter named Eri.
There are no records or
details about her birth.
But when Miro and Midoriya
encountered her,
they noticed there were bandages
wrapped around
her arms and legs.
Could he really do
something so horrific?
Unfortunately, yes.
In a world of superhumans, if
you can dream it, you can do it.
Hold on, what are
they talking about?
Once again, why do we have
children in this meeting?
I'll say this one time:
We're wondering if
this Chisaki bastard
is turning his daughter's
body into b*ll*ts
and selling them on
the black market.
No.
Oh, don't tell me...
To be clear, we aren't certain
that he's actually
selling the b*ll*ts.
At this point, their efficacy
appears to be questionable.
It's possible that they're
still in the testing phase,
and he's giving them
out as samples
to rally more people
to his cause.
We have no hard evidence,
but we do know he's
gathering allies
and funds from
across the nation.
If the completed drug
allows him to annihilate
someone's Quirk entirely,
imagine the devastation
he could cause.
Just talking about it's enough
to make my blood boil.
Let's go get this monster!
Tch. Woulda saved us
a lot of trouble
if these two amateurs had just
gotten the girl away from him.
I take full responsibility.
The blame should
not fall on them.
Even without knowing
the whole story,
they acted to save the child,
each in their own way.
Midoriya was willing
to bear the risk
of taking her then,
while Mirio chose to wait
for another opportunity, when
success would be more likely.
[IZUKU] "World's greatest
hero." Not even close.
[MIRIO] Save , , people?
I couldn't even save her.
I assure you,
nobody in this room
is more frustrated
than they are.
[clatter]
We'll get Eri away
from him next time...
[BOTH]
...and we'll protect her!
Indeed.
That's precisely what we've
come here to discuss.
We'll get Eri away
from him next time...
[BOTH]
...and we'll protect her.
[IZUKU]
We'll save her!
[MIRIO]
We won't let her down.
[ROCK LOCK] Huh. You kids
wanna talk big, that's fine.
But if what Nighteye
is saying is for real,
that little girl
is at the center
of Hassaikai's entire
underground drug operation.
She may have managed
to get away
from Overhaul for a few minutes,
but she got herself seen
by a couple of heroes.
You think he's still
gonna keep her
at home after that? Hell,
I know I sure wouldn't.
And if we go bustin'
into their headquarters
and she's not there,
they're gonna know
that we're onto them.
We gotta be sure of
where he's hidin' her.
[RYUKYU]
He's has a point.
Do you have a plan
for that, Nighteye?
That's our conundrum.
Since we don't
currently know how far
they've taken their plans,
the success of our
initial strike is crucial.
To that end, we've
made a thorough list
of groups with connections
to Hassaikai,
as well as properties
owned by the organization.
This is our starting point.
I would like you
all to investigate
each coordinate on this map.
It is the most logical way
to narrow down our targets.
So that's why you
asked minor heroes
like us to join you.
[MASKED HERO]
What do you mean?
Go on. Look.
The heroes in this room all
operate in one of those locales.
We know the areas
better than most.
[FAT GUM] Didn't expect someone
who worked with All Might
for so long to be such
a careful planner.
Let's just go bring 'em down!
While we're takin'
our sweet time,
that abused girl's out
there crying somewhere.
We can't do this
like All Might would.
That's why we must be meticulous
about our strategies
and predictions from the outset.
So we have the highest
chance of saving her.
[GRAN TORINO]
He's right. We shouldn't rush.
If we show our hand and then
don't end up rescuing her,
then we'd just be
throwing gas on a fire.
Like how Stain's
capture was a beacon
that led criminals to seek
out and join the League.
In fact, I wouldn't be surprised
if they handed out
Quirk-destroying weapons
to those hoodlums in order
to increase their recruitment.
You're thinkin' too dang much.
If we keep sitting here
yappin' about it,
we're never gonna
get anything done!
[AIZAWA]
Excuse me. I've got a question.
I don't know the specifics
of your Quirk, Nighteye.
Feel free to correct.
But from what I've heard of it,
your Quirk, Foresight allows
you to see into the future.
So why not use it on us.
That's logical, right?
I'm sorry. But I cannot.
My Foresight has
some limitations.
I need a full hours
between activations.
That means I get one person,
and then I'm spent
for the rest of the day.
Additionally, the future
is played in my mind
like a flashback.
[SIR NIGHTEYE] Think of it
like viewing a filmstrip.
For one hour, I have the power
to watch a person's
life as a movie.
The issue is, everything I see
is from a tight perspective
on the person in question.
This severely limits my
capacity to interpret context.
That should still provide
more than enough
information to be useful,
don't you think?
And it doesn't explain
why you can't do it.
[SIR NIGHTEYE]
What if I saw imminent death
in your near future. Worse...
What if it were a cruel,
merciless demise?
[gasps]
[IZUKU]
This is...
...because of what
happened with All Might.
[SIR NIGHTEYE]
Please! Stop!
If you continue
like this, I swear,
you'll face off against
a villain and die
an unspeakably gruesome death.
[SIR NIGHTEYE] My Quirk
should be employed only after
we've confirmed the highest
likelihood of success.
Then it can help
ensure our victory.
It shouldn't be relied upon
when there are still
too many uncertainties.
Whoa, whoa, whoa hold up.
Death is still information.
If we know what's comin', we
can figure out how to survive.
[SIR NIGHTEYE]
You don't understand.
It's possible what
I see is unavoidable.
Bro, that's the only
excuse you have, for real?
Oh, hell no, just
use it on me now!
I'll show you I can b*at death.
I can't.
Yeah, all right.
[sighs] We should get started.
There's a child in trouble.
That's what's important here.
[SIR NIGHTEYE] We must
confirm the girl's location
and take her into our protection
as quickly as possible
using the most accurate data.
I'm counting on your
help. All of you.
[IZUKU]
If only I'd rescued her then,
even if I had to use force.
At least she'd be safe.
Aw, man. So that's
what happened that day?
So frustrating!
We know you tried, Deku.
[AMAJIKI] I've never seen
Mirio look so down before.
[ROCK LOCK] We're wondering
if this Chisaki bastard
is turning his daughter's
body into b*ll*ts
and selling them
on the black market.
[MIRIO]
Poor Eri.
Is this a funeral or something?
[TSUYU]
Mr. Aizawa, hello, sir.
Ah. Call me Eraser Head
outside of school.
You know, it's just my luck.
Before you got involved in this,
I was going to recommend that
your work studies be suspended.
What? Why would you do that?
[AIZAWA]
You were listening when he said
the League of Villains
is involved, right?
That changes things.
[IZUKU] We'll get Eri
away from him next time,
[BOTH]
...and we'll protect her.
Here's the deal. Midoriya.
You still haven't proven
I can trust you again.
[gasps]
[AIZAWA] In order to
regain our confidence,
you'll need to obey every rule.
I mean to the letter.
Be model students.
[AIZAWA] Unfortunately,
I'm positive that if I try
to stop you now, you'll
do something reckless
and attempt to take things
into your own hands.
So, I'll watch you.
If you're going to
see this through,
you gotta do it the right way.
Use your head.
Ya hear me? Problem child?
Mirio, please, will
you try to smile?
Hey! Hey! I know
what'll help you!
Just remember! Regretting
something and getting frowny
doesn't change things.
You know it?
Yeah.
I'll only say this once,
in case it gives you
a little peace of mind.
Just because you didn't
hold onto her this time,
doesn't mean you
didn't give Eri hope.
So keep looking forward.
Right!
Mr. Aizawa!
[AIZAWA]
I said I'm Eraser here.
I'm your man for the rest
of my life, Eraser!
[AIZAWA]
Ugh, not interested.
[KIRISHIMA]
Sorry!
[OCHACO]
Take it down a notch, Kirishima.
Mirio?
Yeah, I know.
Hey, Midoriya. Next time
we'll definitely save her.
Right! No matter what!
[SIR NIGHTEYE]
Now I understand. Of course.
You sent Midoriya to me in
the hopes that he would help
mend my relationship
with All Might.
[GRAN TORINO]
Heh. I thought it would give you
an excuse to talk, at least.
When you get old, it's your job
to help stubborn
youngsters. So, the kid.
What are your honest
thoughts about him?
I think he and All Might
are very similar.
Especially when it comes to the
madness living deep within.
The one I could
never understand.
I see that in them both.
Yo, Eri. Relax, it's just me.
I'm just checkin' to make sure
you're doin' okay in here.
What? You haven't touched
any of your toys.
And after I bought
'em special for you.
Wouldn't hurt to
let your guard down
a little, you know.
[CARETAKER A]
Look happy or I might be the one
who gets k*lled
next time, ya brat.
See, I'm not scary.
There anything you
want me to bring you?
No worries.
If I'm in the way,
I'll leave you alone.
[CHISAKI] You're going
to be her new caretaker.
Make sure she doesn't
want to run away.
Use the carrot, not the stick.
Be someone she trusts
and feels comfortable with.
[CARETAKER A]
I'm a dead man.
Like I have any idea
what kids like.
Maybe I'll grab her one
of those magical girl dolls.
[ERI]
So strange.
[ERI]
So completely different.
My entire life,
no one's ever reached out
to me like that before.
[IZUKU] Whoa, I'm sorry.
You took a tumble.
Are you okay? Can I help you up?
Her whole body's shaking,
but she's not making a sound.
What are you doing to this girl?
[ERI]
He felt so kind.
So warm.
[IZUKU]
Here's the preview.
Those of us in work studies
are instructed to stand by
while Sir Nighteye
and the other pros
try to figure out where
Eri is being kept.
My head is a mess as I'm
forced to wait for news.
I can't stop thinking about
All Might's future,
Nighteye's words,
and Eri's safety.
Then, finally, we're
able to make a move.
Next time: "GO!!"
Eri, I'll definitely
save you this time.
Go Beyond! Plus Ultra!
