However, the Plaguebringer's ability to communicate in language alone would definitely be problematic, so Midoriya had installed a miniature camera device on it beforehand. Since it was directly inserted into its spirit hood, there was no need to worry about it being discovered.

Therefore, the Plague Messenger is now faithfully carrying out the orders given by its master, using the camera device hidden in its dark face under its hood to record everything in the "Monster Association," acting as a glorious traitor (laughs).

The Plague Messenger, which had been wandering around the Monster Association for a long time, seemed to have attracted little attention due to the large number of new monsters joining the association recently. However, whether intentionally or unintentionally, trouble came knocking on its door.

"Are you new here? I heard from Big Eyes that you're really good!"

A strange-looking man, seemingly wearing a black leather suit, appeared before the Plague Messenger. However, the Plague Messenger instantly realized that this man was a powerful monster, even stronger than the "Monster King" Orochi from before.

"It's the executive 'Black Sperm,' has he set his sights on that weirdo who just joined the association?!"

"Is it because this guy who just joined the association became an officer without doing anything that the other officers are unhappy about it?"

"Let's get out of there first. If the 'Dragon-level' officers start fighting, we're all doomed!"

............

The low-level monsters around him were gossiping and scattering in a panic, while the Plague Messenger carefully sensed the "black sperm" in front of it. It discovered that this guy contained more than 11 trillion life forces, each of which seemed to be a life in itself, almost comparable to that guy, the Hell Messenger.

However, abundant vitality was even better for the plague messenger; it was practically a feast delivered to its doorstep. So it simply lowered its scythe to the ground and spoke haltingly in the terrifying language of the valley:

"You... 11 trillion life... are very strong... come and fight..."

"Well......."

Upon hearing this, the black sperm was immediately stunned. It was the first time he had ever met someone who could see right through him at a glance. However, sensing something was amiss, the black sperm took a step back and tried to smooth things over.

"I just heard from that guy with big eyes that there are new cadres, so I came to check it out out of interest. That's all."

After saying that, the black sperm quickly made his escape. For some reason, his entire body was frantically sounding alarms, warning that the strange man in front of him was dangerous. So, following his instincts, the black sperm decided it was best to slip away first and observe this newcomer later.

After witnessing Black Sperm escape, Plague Messenger picked up the Grim Reaper's scythe again and continued its investigation of the "Monster Association." Its primary goal now is to collect intelligence in accordance with its master's orders, and for the time being, it will continue to be a glorious double agent.

Chapter 78 Hero Hunt

Plague Messenger's plan to infiltrate the Monster Association as a traitor was even more successful than Midoriya had imagined. He quickly gathered information on the various "Dragon-level" executives within the Monster Association.

"Big Eyes, Gums, Ugly President, Evil Natural Water, Pochi, Black Sperm, Homeless Emperor..."

After giving a general overview of the "Monster Association" executives, Midoriya compiled the collected data into a summary:

The Monster Association's overall combat strength is comprised of a formidable "Monster King," several "Dragon-level" executives, a large number of "Demon-level" elites, and a whole host of "Tiger" and "Wolf" cannon fodder monsters.

The information gathered so far is crucial for the Hero Association's next operation, but Midoriya doesn't plan to relay the intelligence he's collected to the Hero Association yet. Just as he arranged for Plaguebringer to infiltrate the Monster Association as a traitor, the Monster Association might also have planted someone within the Hero Association. So, for now, it's best to keep it a secret.

However, the address of the "Monster Association" can be directly passed on to the Hero Association. We'll see them organize a team of heroes to subdue the monsters, and then Midoriya will join them. After that, the Plaguebringer will carry out a righteous backstabbing, which makes perfect sense.

After relaying the address of the Monster Association to the Hero Association, Midoriya quickly received a report that he was being notified to gather in Z-City the next day to prepare for the operation. Midoriya was taken aback by this efficient response. The Hero Association had actually continued holding the meeting without any delay.

However, it's good to act quickly, since the "Monster Association's" secret plans are never good. Catching them off guard early will make it easier to gain the upper hand.

After the Hero Association finalized its plan to defeat the Monster Association, Midoriya prepared to go to Saitama's house first, because he needed to find a big shot to back him up after the battle with the Monster Association the next day.

As the saying goes, one should know how to act within one's capabilities. Midoriya is very clear that in this kind of situation, he must call on a big shot who can punch 999999 times. In case the Monster Association suddenly pulls out some powerful trump card to turn the tide, with a big shot like Saitama around, he can sit back and relax without any worries (laughs).

Boros happens to be at Saitama's house too. But speaking of which, the address of this "Monster Association" seems to be underground in the suburbs of Z-City, which seems to be right below Saitama's house?!

Midoriya was stunned when he thought of this. The Monster Association was really good at choosing a base. They built their lair right under the strongest hero's house. Aren't they afraid that Saitama might accidentally walk in and wipe them out one day?

Whether it was fate or misfortune... After gaining a deeper understanding of Saitama's ability to attract monsters, Midoriya immediately set off.

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

Near the outskirts of Z City, Garou is being chased by a large group of heroes, including many C-rank and B-rank heroes, led by A-rank heroes "Golden Ball" and "Spring Mustache".

"Damn it..."

As the hungry wolf fled for his life, he continued to spit out foul language, but there was a reason why this "human monster" could curse to such an extent.

After Garou knocked out the S-class hero "Tanktop Master" and sent him to the hospital, the Hero Association began to pay attention to this "human monster" who frequently caused trouble. Therefore, Garou is now considered a key target of the wanted list.

However, because Midoriya tricked Garou into going to the research institute a couple of days ago, and then had the Plague Messenger and the Hell Messenger teach him a lesson and give him a very scary warning, Garou has not hunted any more heroes since then.

After all, he couldn't beat the two monsters under "Doctor Hell" right now, and if he were captured again, he would be finished. That's what Garou was thinking... In short, he was temporarily scared.

However, a gentleman takes revenge even after ten years, while a monster can take revenge in just a few days. So Garou turned his attention to the monsters. He wanted to become stronger by challenging powerful monsters. After all, Garou had clearly felt his strength increase significantly after fighting the Plague Messenger and the Hell Messenger for a long time in the "Hyperspace Cube".

Having heard that Z-City was the city where powerful monsters frequently appeared, Garou came to Z-City... but instead of encountering monsters, Garou bumped into a bunch of heroes.

Normally, there wouldn't be so many heroes in Z-City. It was only after the Hero Association learned that the Monster Association was located in Z-City that they dispatched a large number of heroes to Z-City to conduct an investigation. As a result, Garou, who was on his way to Z-City, bumped into the heroes. After a moment of surprise, both sides began a chase.

Garou is furious! The hero chasing him is no match for him, but Garou is also worried about being targeted by "Dr. Hell" if he defeats the hero again. If he is captured and turned into a robot, he will be completely doomed.

Unable to defeat the heroes, Garou could only run away. He had originally planned to use his speed to shake off the heroes, but he found it impossible. Not to mention the two A-rank heroes who were closely chasing him, it seemed that the other C-rank and B-rank heroes immediately joined in without saying a word after seeing the situation.

This is mobile honor! And there are so many heroes chasing us! It's a perfect opportunity to rack up achievements; it would be foolish not to come in and take advantage of it.

That's roughly the situation right now. A whole bunch of heroes see Garou as a walking honor and have all joined in the hunt for him, which makes Garou so angry he wants to curse!

However, the chase had to come to an end. The A-class hero "Golden Ball," who had been relentlessly pursuing Garou, made his move. He spotted a good spot, took out his slingshot, filled it with golden bullets, aimed at the fleeing "human monster" Garou, and launched the slingshot instantly!

The golden bullets fired at breakneck speed caught the fleeing wolf completely off guard. In an instant, a whooshing sound pierced the air, followed by a carnage of flesh and blood. The wolf's right foot was pierced, causing him to lose his balance and fall violently to the ground.

"Garou, the 'human monster,' you're not getting away!"

Seeing that Garou was seriously injured, "Spring Mustache" held his rapier horizontally and pointed it at the wounded man in front of him, while a large group of other heroes took the opportunity to surround Garou.

Looking at the large hole in his right leg and the blood flowing out, the hungry wolf laughed... a sinister laugh that signaled the start of the hunt.

There's nothing to worry about anymore, so let's just enjoy this hero hunt to the fullest!

Wounded yet the most dangerous of ravenous wolves, he began his own hunting feast.

Chapter 79, the second one is an illness.

Despite being severely wounded, the hungry wolf remained standing and slowly walked away, while the heroes who had been pursuing him lay on the ground, howling in grief. The outcome was clear.

With a large hole in his right leg and numerous cuts from his body inflicted by a rapier, the hungry wolf endured the excruciating pain and made his way to an abandoned house on the outskirts of Z City, where he took out the "healing medicine."

Two days ago, the Hell Messenger gave him some "healing medicine" that he hadn't finished using. Because he felt that the effect was really powerful after using it, and his wounds healed in about half an hour, Garou simply kept the rest of the medicine on his body.

He plans to wait here for his wounds to heal, and also take a break to avoid being pursued by other heroes in Z City. The fight he just had almost exhausted Garou's stamina.

.................

After finishing his shopping at the supermarket in Z City, Midoriya felt he should at least bring a souvenir since he was going to ask Saitama for help. Even though the Monster Association was right below his house, if Saitama knew, he would definitely go and get rid of all the rats under his house.

Because he had been using the "Hyperspace Cube" to transfer for a long time recently, Midoriya was planning to walk to Saitama's house occasionally. When he arrived at the outskirts of Z City, he saw several hospital ambulances parked there. Curious about this, Midoriya went closer to them.

Then he saw the heroes wailing and lamenting all over the ground. Midoriya, who recognized most of these heroes, noticed that they were all wounded by someone. Since none of them had died, Midoriya immediately thought of Garou.

However, it's always best to confirm things first, so Midoriya walked up behind a bystander and asked directly:

"How is this going?"

"I heard it was that 'human monster' Garou who did it. He defeated so many heroes; he's really something."

Because they were still watching the spectacle, the passersby who didn't turn around casually told the newcomers the news, completely unaware that the person behind them was "Dr. Hell".

"Oh! Thank you."

"It's alright. By the way, your voice sounds familiar."

The passerby who had just turned around saw that there was no one behind him, and he felt a chill run down his spine, thinking that he had seen a ghost.

Midoriya stepped directly into the "Hyperspace Cube". When Garou came to the research institute last time, he marked him with a beacon. So Midoriya stepped out of the portal again and arrived at the location of Garou.

The sudden appearance of a spacetime rift in front of him made Garou, who was still resting, immediately alert and ready to fight. However, when Izuku Midoriya stepped out of it, the "human monster" relaxed again.

"What?! It's you, 'Doctor Hell'?!"

"My name is Izuku Midoriya. You don't have to use the hero name 'Dr. Hell'."

Setting aside the souvenirs he had purchased to bring to Saitama, Izuku Midoriya sat down on a chair in the abandoned room and began to question Garou directly.

"You've injured a hero again! Didn't I warn you against 'Hero Hunting'?"

"Tch, are you a cop? You got here so fast and are being so strict!"

Garou, who turned his head away disdainfully, would not deny what he had done, but he was still somewhat guilty in the face of Izuku Midoriya's interrogation.

"Okay, I'll ask another question."

Seeing Garou's attitude, Midoriya didn't intend to make things too difficult for him. He took this opportunity to have a good talk with the guy and find out why Garou insisted on calling himself a "monster".

"Why do you call yourself a 'weirdo'? Wouldn't it be better to become a hero with your abilities?"

"Didn't I already say it? Of course, it's because—"

"Alright, tell me the truth."

Interrupting Garou's attempt to repeat the same answer as last time, Midoriya Izuku looked at him with a serious gaze. This young man, who was two years older than him, was surely not going to say things like he was coaxing a child.

"Honestly, that's why I hate you 'heroes,' you all always look down on others with that condescending gaze."

"Hey! I wasn't looking at you with disdain, okay?"

"Huh? You already said it was contempt, and you still say it wasn't?!"

"Don't change the subject. Do you want me to drag you back to the research institute for robot modification?"

"........."

As the saying goes, threats are always more effective than sincere requests; at least this time, the wolf chickened out and answered honestly.

"Because heroes are useless!"

"What?"

Taken aback by this answer, Midoriya heard Garou continue speaking:

"It's ironic that someone who's clearly accomplished nothing as a 'hero' receives love, support, and encouragement from ordinary people."

So you're saying you're targeting me?

"Uh......"

Garou, stunned by Midoriya's words, suddenly realized that the "Doctor Hell" in front of him also perfectly matched the standards of a hero he despised, and had completely stepped into a minefield.

"It's alright, please continue."

Midoriya, still smiling, was given a chance to explain himself before deciding whether to kill, dismember, or bury him alive.

As expected, the wolf became even more cowardly, but he still managed to finish what he had to say.

"No matter how many monsters heroes eliminate, more monsters just keep appearing, which is why I think 'heroes' are useless."

"what do you mean?"

"I will become a 'Monster'! The strongest 'Monster'! First, I will defeat all the heroes to prove that monsters can't lose, and then I will defeat all the monsters to stand at the top. I will let everyone know that monsters and heroes are no different. Why must monsters be considered evil in this world, and must be eliminated once discovered by so-called justice?"

"I want to create a world where monsters and heroes can coexist, and where children can choose to become monsters or heroes based on their own preferences!"

Midoriya's smiling eyes narrowed. He found this Garou quite interesting. Although his wish seemed childish, it was impressive that he could persist to this extent.

However, it was also necessary to dampen the spirits of this older, immature youth, so Midoriya spoke up directly.

"But according to you, my 'Hell Monster' is very popular, isn't it? And recently, many children have been dressing up as it."

"Well......."

The hungry wolf, slapped in the face by cruel reality, refused to submit and immediately defended himself:

"That's because it's a monster created by you, 'Dr. Hell,' so ordinary people accept and like it because it's labeled a 'hero,' not a 'monster' at all."

"What you're saying is nonsense. What ordinary person would like a 'weirdo' who brings them disaster?"

Deku is speechless at Garou's chuunibyou (delusional) thinking. You should at least have a limit to your liking for weirdos. At the very least, you should understand who is protecting you and who is the real culprit behind the disaster.

"In short, I will become the strongest 'monster,' and then act according to my plan!"

"I think it's best to take you back now for some mindset correction."

Midoriya, who had decided to continue capturing Garou and bringing him back to the research institute for mind correction, unexpectedly changed just as he was about to take action. The abandoned room collapsed, and several "Demon-level" monsters appeared around him and Garou.

"We've found the 'human monster'! But we also discovered an unexpected surprise."

"Dr. Hell!!"

The Monster Association, which was searching for "human monsters," was fortunate enough to find both Garou and Midoriya.
