The Hero Association's high-ranking members were so moved they almost cried, because they realized that the most understanding S-class hero they had ever met was "Dr. Hell," while the other S-class heroes all had their own significant tempers and flaws... "Dr. Hell" was truly an angel sent down from heaven to save them.

----------------

Night fell quickly, and of course, it was more convenient to discuss issues over dinner, so Midoriya went to the restaurant chosen by Saitama very early.

Is this the place?

"Hmph! I'm going to eat you out of house and home tonight."

Seeing that Saitama had chosen a decent barbecue restaurant in Z City, Midoriya was embarrassed... He had thought Saitama would choose some high-end place, but this place was quite suitable.

"It's rare for Saitama to invite an old man like me to dinner, so my brother and I won't stand on ceremony."

The old man from Banggu came with his older brother, who was about the same age as him, and he acted like an old man visiting a neighbor.

"My brother Midoriya is treating! As his older sister, of course I have to come."

"Hehe, I won't hold back tonight, Midoriya-kun!"

The two sisters, Tatsumaki and Fubuki, who also came, called Midoriya "little brother" one after the other, which made Midoriya's face turn black with annoyance. It was a complete torture.

"Saitama, I'm here too."

"Ah! It's Mr. King!?"

At this moment, "thump! thump! thump!" the strongest man on the ground arrived.

Chapter 73 Barbecue Feast

Since today was a rare get-together, Midoriya brought along both the Hell Messenger and the Plague Messenger. As for "War Messenger" Boros, he clung to Saitama and came without being called.

Of course, there was also Dr. Kunos. Midoriya wouldn't forget to invite his teacher, the kind old man, who happened to be sitting with Bang and the others, making it a perfect group of elderly people.

This was the first time he had ever experienced such a lively atmosphere in this world, and Midoriya was overjoyed and ready to enjoy the cheerful gathering. Just then, the Grim Reaper informed its master about its encounter with Garou.

After listening to the report from the Grim Reaper, Midoriya smiled slightly. He knew he hadn't misjudged Garou. Garou said he wanted to become a "human monster" and defeat all the heroes, but wasn't he just a fool trying to be a hero?

Now that he had confirmed that Garou was not a bad guy at heart, Midoriya was ready to take action. So, he immediately turned his attention to Bang, the old man in question, and decided to talk to the master of this person involved.

While everyone was chatting enthusiastically and waiting for the barbecue to cook, Midoriya took the opportunity to sit down next to Grandpa Bang and said:

“Mr. Bang, I have found Garou.”

Really!?

Upon hearing the news, Bang's face didn't show joy; instead, it was heavy with emotion. However, Midoriya could roughly guess what the old man was feeling, so he earnestly stated:

"Today, the Grim Reaper encountered Garou in S City, but he fought desperately against two 'Demon-level' monsters to protect a child."

"this......."

Bang seemed unable to believe that this was something Garou, the unfilial disciple who had severely injured all his fellow disciples and was eventually kicked out of the sect, would do.

"So I think you and your disciple Garou have some kind of misunderstanding. If he really wanted to become a 'monster,' he wouldn't do something like this."

"Perhaps I'm just too incompetent; I can't even see the true nature of my own disciple. I'm completely unqualified to be someone else's teacher..."

Grandpa Bang sighed, but at least there was a hint of relief on his face. Knowing that his disciple had not gone astray was the greatest comfort to the old man.

"Leave the matter of Hungry Wolf to me, I will guide him onto the right path."

"Well then, thank you for your help, Midoriya-kun. This old man still has much to learn about being a teacher."

The old man Bang sighed and shook his head, while his brother Bomb patted his brother on the shoulder to comfort him. However, it was the best outcome to avoid a fight between master and disciple.

Just as Midoriya was about to chat with Bang, the little tornado sitting in another seat flew over. This older-than-life little girl grabbed Midoriya's clothes and flew backward, all the while saying:

"Why are you chatting with those old men? Come chat with your sister!"

"Well......."

Unable to find a rebuttal he wanted to say, Midoriya could only let Tatsumaki pull him to another table, where Fubuki and the Grim Reaper were sitting.

Meanwhile, at the table where Saitama was, he was joined by Genos, King, and Boros. In Midoriya's mind, it was just right for the strong to sit around one table, with Genos in charge of grilling the meat. Midoriya decided not to join them.

"Where is the plague messenger?"

"It doesn't like food, so it's squatting in the corner over there."

Midoriya looked in the direction the Grim Reaper was pointing, and there stood motionless in the corner, just like a decorative sculpture.

"This is really troublesome for them; we can only watch the dinner party unfold like this."

Awkwardly scratching his head, Midoriya explained that the Plague Messenger is a half-spirit monster that absorbs life force to replenish itself. Its body structure does not require any physical food, so it does not have the function of eating or drinking.

In addition, the Hellbringer can replenish its energy anytime, anywhere, but now it's a must-have for every meal. It seems that it has completely gotten used to eating with a mouth that doesn't exist.

During this long-awaited lively barbecue gathering, Midoriya also took the opportunity to discuss some matters.

"Sister... Sister..." Midoriya awkwardly uttered the word, but seeing Tatsumaki's satisfied and happy expression, he stopped worrying about such matters of propriety and got straight to the point.

Have you ever heard of the "Monster Association" before?

"Never heard of it, don't know. Are you referring to that weird organization that caused this trouble? Anyway, it's just like those other organizations that courted disaster before, and they'll be wiped out soon."

"Uh... I see."

Hearing Tornado's candid answer, Midoriya was speechless. Just how many evil organizations are there in this world? It seems like no one is surprised when a bad organization suddenly appears. Have they all become accustomed to it?

"Master, I know about the 'Monster Association'."

"Hey! You know that?"

To Midoriya's surprise, the Grim Reaper actually knew about the "Monster Association," which immediately puzzled him.

Why didn't you say so sooner?

"Master, you didn't ask me..."

"All right....."

Ignoring the details of the black-haired egg-shaped creature, Midoriya quickly pressed it for information about the "Monster Association," and the Grim Reaper obediently confessed everything.

"I remember it was about a month after I met Saitama when a strange guy calling himself the 'Monster Association' approached me, saying he wanted to invite me to join the 'Monster Association.'"

"You joined?"

"How could that be? I'm busy defeating Saitama, I don't have time to play around with the 'Monster Association,' so of course I just refused outright."

However, as Midoriya expected, if the Grim Reaper had joined the Monster Association, he would have told him. It was obvious that Midoriya had completely forgotten about it, treating it as something trivial.

"So after all this talk, you still don't know the address of the 'Monster Association' or what their goals are?"

"Uh... I don't know the address, but they mentioned the destination when they invited me."

"Oh? Tell me about it..."

The Grim Reaper unexpectedly brought some information, and Midoriya, Tatsumaki, and Fubuki all looked at the black-haired bald guy, interested in listening.

"It seems they're going to turn all humans into monsters... and then rule the Earth?"

"Hmm! These are targets with a very standard villainous style. I'd give them a 60 out of 100."

Midoriya raised his right finger and nodded to show his deep understanding, while Tatsumaki, standing to the side, was puzzled.

Why 60 points?

"Because the plan has reached the passing grade, but if you want to actually implement it, it's more realistic to just dream about it."

Turning his gaze to Midoriya at another table, watching Saitama, King, and Boros fiercely grilling meat, he felt that the "Monster Association" was doomed.

Chapter 74 The Monster Association, Z City

The next day, Midoriya didn't forget that the Hero Association had summoned all the S-class heroes for a meeting, so after giving orders to Hellbringer and Plaguebringer early in the morning, Midoriya Izuku prepared to head to the Hero Association headquarters.

Because of what the Hell Messenger said last night, Midoriya noticed something: it seemed that the Monster Association was actively inviting powerful monsters to join their organization. Midoriya immediately thought of a way to have the Plague Messenger infiltrate them as a double agent.

"Hell Messenger" is currently openly carrying out "hero activities" on my behalf, so it's impossible for it to infiltrate the "Monster Association." Moreover, Midoriya strongly suspects that this black-haired guy has developed a tendency to betray him. This guy has already betrayed him to Tatsumaki many times. Otherwise, how could he have been entangled with that older loli sister?

"Warbringer" Boros is no good either. He only shows his face in ordinary times and fighting tournaments. Now the "Monster Association" knows that he is the one who is replacing him in the "Hero Association".

So the only monster that can act as a double agent is "Plague Messenger," because after its big fight with Saitama in City C, Midoriya strictly forbade it from being used. So far, it has only been used once, in City A when it was invaded by a spaceship, and again during yesterday's monster disaster.

Yesterday, all the monsters who knew the appearance of the "Plague Messenger" were eliminated, and the ordinary citizens had no idea that "Dr. Hell" had a monster in the form of a Grim Reaper, which could be sent to infiltrate the "Monster Association".

Thinking this approach was feasible, Midoriya devised a plan. He instructed "Hellbringer" and "Plaguebringer" to find a crowded and lively place to fight. The goal was simply to make a big commotion, but of course, they were not allowed to cause damage to the citizens or surrounding buildings.

Using this method, Midoriya felt that the Monster Association would not let go of the fighting power of a "Dragon-level" monster. They would definitely take the bait and invite him. Of course, it didn't matter if the plan failed... Anyway, there would be no loss. At most, it would just mean that a certain black bald-headed monster would die a few more lives (laughs).

So Midoriya went to the Hero Association for a meeting, while Hellbringer and Plaguebringer were tasked with luring the Monster Association. It would be ideal if they could successfully lure the Monster Association ashore.

After arriving at the Hero Association headquarters via the "Hyperspace Cube," Midoriya found that the security was much tighter than usual. Upon seeing "Dr. Hell" arrive, the guards immediately bowed and led the way, explaining the situation.

"Because of the 'Monster Association's' invasion and sabotage yesterday, headquarters has implemented very strict security measures today, and we have equipment to detect monsters. Any creature with monster-like characteristics that approaches will trigger an alarm."

"Yes, just let me know if there's anything I can help you with."

"There's no need to trouble you with that, 'Dr. Hell.' It would be best if we could eliminate the 'Monster Association' as soon as possible."

Knowing their job, the guards learned about the "Monster Association" through the internet last night, so the citizens, who wanted to avoid being attacked by monsters again, placed their hopes on the "Hero Association".

This time, the situation was similar to the last time. Midoriya was led directly to the place where the last meeting was held, the same meeting room where "Earth is doomed!" and the spaceship and Boros invaded. However, the security here was tight, which was also to prevent the "Monster Association" from carrying out infiltration work.

"Dr. Hell, you've arrived!"

"Ah."

Responding to the greetings from the association's higher-ups, Midoriya went to visit the S-class heroes present. King and Genos were not there, and even the old man Bang was nowhere to be seen today... After looking around, he realized that only a few S-class heroes had gathered there.

"What about the rest?"

"Because it was an emergency meeting, I skipped class to attend today."

"I think you should be happy about skipping class, right?"

"Tch, you saw right through me!"

After a brief exchange with Child Emperor, Midoriya roughly understood the reason for the current situation with so few people. The distance and time required to travel from other cities to City A were considerable. Not all S-class heroes had their own "Hyperspace Cube" for teleportation, and there was only one day left before the "Hero Association" headquarters notified them. Only a few people could make it here.

"Midori, come sit next to me!"

The little tornado patting the conference table is one of the first people who can arrive at any time. She is the "Tornado of Terror" who can fly at supersonic speeds using her superpowers. She is usually the one who rushes to deal with many troublesome monster incidents.

"When did you become so close to Tornado?!"

"It's a long story, and I'd love to hear more about it. Do you want to understand it more deeply?"

"No... I don't know anything."

Tong Di, who stuffed the lollipop directly into his mouth, wisely decided not to be too curious about it, keeping in mind the famous saying "curiosity killed the cat".

After being called by Tornado, Midoriya simply sat down next to her. At that moment, the association's senior members were also looking at their watches, seemingly wanting to wait a little longer to see if any S-class heroes would arrive. Just then, the 13th ranked S-class hero, "Flash Flash," spoke up.

"How much longer do we have to wait? I don't have that much time to waste with you guys!"

"But King hasn't arrived yet..."

The association's higher-ups were somewhat nervous and embarrassed, but at that moment, Midoriya kindly stepped in to smooth things over, speaking gently:

"Let's have a meeting first. I'll pass on the message to Mr. King and the others later."

"Thank you so much, 'Doctor Hell'!"

The association's senior members nodded, then placed their hands on the conference table, showing the S-class heroes present the scenes of destruction in various cities.

"This is the damage caused by yesterday's monster attack. Fortunately, the heroes from various cities fought bravely to prevent further losses. But all of you S-class heroes here have noticed the anomaly in this situation, haven't you?"

"Alright, alright! Just tell me if you have any information about the 'Monster Association' address. No need for further details."

Raising his right hand to interrupt the association member's explanation, Midoriya told him to get straight to the point, otherwise why would he have come all the way here for a meeting so early in the morning?

No wonder "Flash of the Light" was impatient; even Midoriya couldn't keep up with the efficiency of the association's higher-ups... they were just too slow.

"No... but based on the intelligence we've gathered from various locations, we can roughly pinpoint the location of the 'Monster Association' to Z City."

"Z City?!"

Upon hearing this word, Midoriya froze. He immediately thought of Saitama, the bald hero who could defeat all monsters with a single punch. Saitama's home seemed to be in the suburbs of Z City, right?

"Therefore, we would like to ask you all to go to Z-City to investigate the 'Monster Association,' because the monsters we are facing this time are too powerful, and we have no choice but to send our S-Class heroes directly!"
