After Miyazaki began his operation, Izuku Midoriya also stepped out of the alley. It was daytime now, and many yakuza members were patrolling around here. Staying here would easily arouse suspicion and cause trouble.

It was just the right time to climb to the top floor of a nearby high-rise building to observe the entire Shie Hassaikai mansion. Midoriya acted within his power.

When Mirio Togata infiltrated the Shie Hassaikai, he was like a ninja conducting an underwater stealth operation. He kept himself stationary on the surface of the ground and moved slowly. When he needed to breathe or observe the road conditions, he would secretly expose his face to exchange oxygen and observe the situation ahead before continuing to move forward.

In modern hero society, although there are all kinds of "quirks", very few people have a quirk that can detect the existence of life from 360 degrees without blind spots. Moreover, even if someone has such a "quirk", they would not join the "Shie Hassaikai" underworld. According to the information Nighteye had collected in advance, this underworld organization does not have anyone who can detect the operation of Million.

The cautious and meticulous infiltration operation was undertaken by Toru Mirio, whose mission was to find out if there were any unusual circumstances surrounding the "Shie Hassaikai," that is, to search for the whereabouts of the former leader of the "Shie Hassaikai."

While Nighteye was collecting a large amount of intelligence on the League of Villains, the fact that the old leader of the Shie Hassaikai had not appeared for a long time was a big suspicion. After Nighteye noticed and became suspicious, the current operation of Mirio Tokage was launched to reconnoiter and collect intelligence on the enemy.

Peeking out from behind the artificial rockery inside the Shie Hassaikai mansion, he observed the yakuza members in front of him from a hidden and inconspicuous position. Two of them seemed to be talking about something.

Not one to let this opportunity slip by, Toru Miriam once again dove underground, calculated the location, and then crouched down, peeking out from the side of the large rock so that he could hear what they were saying.

Two yakuza members belonging to the "Shie Hassaikai" were present. One man sat on a large rock with his legs crossed, while the other stood on the ground shaking his head helplessly.

"You're saying the old leader suddenly handed over the 'Shie Hassaikai' to the young master, but we've never seen the old leader announce this?"

"Actually, it doesn't matter to me. The Shie Hassaikai is like most yakuza organizations; there are simply no new people willing to join now. In the end, it will still be replaced by those pro heroes."

"That's true... It's getting harder and harder to survive in the yakuza these days, and if it weren't for Young Master Chisaki's continued insistence, the Shie Hassaikai might have declined even faster."

"Sigh... There's nothing we can do. That's just how the world is these days. Young people all want to be glamorous heroes, so who wants to join the underworld and become someone else's henchman?"

Two yakuza members who had been involved in the "Shie Hassaikai" for many years witnessed how the yakuza organization went from prosperity to decline. In the end, it all started when All Might appeared. The rise of the "Peace Symbol" established a hero society, while the yakuza organization became a product of the old era and gradually headed for extinction.

The pointless grumbling was about to end when, just as Tong Xingbai was preparing to slip away unnoticed, the man sitting on the large rock carefully looked around to make sure no one else was behind him. He then cautiously spoke to his standing companion:

"Let me tell you a secret, but don't tell anyone else, okay?"

Upon hearing this obviously suggestive topic, Tongxing Baiwan knew there was no reason for him to leave. He immediately stopped and listened intently.

"Actually, the old leader is under house arrest by Chisaki's young master. Now it seems the Shie Hassaikai is planning something big."

"Hey, spreading rumors like this will get your little finger cut off!"

"I'm not kidding you, that drunk guy Jiu Munini let it slip unintentionally, and now the old team leader is being held under house arrest in the backyard by the young master's direct subordinates."

"Indeed... I find it very strange that no one is allowed to enter or leave the backyard now."

"But we know what kind of behavior the young master usually does, so there must be a valid reason for placing the old team leader under house arrest."

"Then why did you tell me this? I wouldn't dare do anything against Young Master Chisaki. If you want to die, don't drag me down with you."

"I don't want to die! The main thing is that I'm so suffocated by this secret, I can't stand not talking to someone about it."

"Anyway, I'll pretend you didn't say anything, that's all!"

The private secrets of two yakuza members, but this kind of thing is not actually a coincidence. In fact, there are quite a few people in the "Shie Hassaikai" who have discovered that Chisaki has put the old leader under house arrest. However, they all have their own reasons for not resisting. After all, people who live in yakuza organizations may have a sense of justice, but they are definitely not good people.

It's suspicious that such a powerful yakuza boss hasn't shown up for so long. And with Nighteye able to find out this information, it would be a miracle if no one in the Shie Hassaikai knew about it. However, everyone tacitly acknowledges Chisaki's actions. For these yakuza members, it doesn't really matter whether they are led by the old boss or the young master.

He learned the important information in no time. After determining the location and direction of the backyard, he quietly sneaked in from underground. It seemed that he could make contact with the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai".

Despite the tight defenses guarding the backyard from the ground, they were nothing more than air to Mirio Togata, who had "penetrated" through from underground. After spending considerable time locating the old team leader's room, Mirio Togata infiltrated underground.

The room where the old leader of the East Hall was located seemed to be his bedroom. The surrounding decorations were very obviously in the style of a yakuza boss. This old leader, who looked quite old, still had the aura of a tiger, but now he was imprisoned in a cage.

After confirming that the person in front of him was the former leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" and that there was no one else around for the time being, Mirio Togata quietly revealed himself.

"Are you the leader of the 'Shie Hachisaikai'?"

"who!"

The team leader, who reacted with alertness immediately, realized that the person in front of him was wearing a professional hero combat suit after Tongxing Baiwan made a gesture to keep it quiet.

"Team leader, what happened?!"

Hearing the commotion, the guards outside rushed in, only to find their old team leader, with an imposing aura like a tiger, berating them in his usual angry tone:

"Get Chisaki over here! What is that guy trying to do?!"

"Are you alright... Team leader, please rest quietly. Ms. Eri will be back soon."

Hearing the old team leader's usual angry words, the guards immediately lowered their guard. They figured their old team leader was probably just getting angry and wanted to scold the young master again, so they decided to ignore him and continue with their duties.

The underworld members who had left the door to continue their guard duty quietly emerged from the ground and spoke in a very low voice:

"We almost got caught, luckily you reacted quickly, team leader."

The two, who reached a consensus the moment they met, began to whisper to each other. The leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" who was under house arrest, Mirio Togata.

"Are you a pro hero? What are you trying to do by infiltrating the 'Shie Hassaikai'?"

"It's because of you, old leader, that the recent events involving the League of Villains have caused unrest throughout society. After hearing that the old leader of the Shie Hassaikai hadn't shown up for a long time, we launched this intelligence gathering operation."

"Although I don't like professional heroes, I can't ignore Chisaki's behavior."

The former leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" was a man with the traditional spirit of the yakuza. He imposed the rules of the yakuza, which prohibit gambling, drug trafficking, and fighting with ordinary people, on everyone in the "Shie Hassaikai". He was a yakuza leader with a chivalrous style.

However, now that the Yakuza organization is declining and heading towards extinction, the young leader Chisaki, whom he values, has gone astray and actually conspired with the enemy organization. The old leader who opposed this was placed under house arrest and sidelined. It has to be said that fate is cruel.

Because of the appearance of Toru Hyakuman, the old team leader was no longer willing to hold back what he knew and told the hero in front of him everything, so as not to let the "Shie Hassaikai" go down a wrong path from which there was no turning back.

"That Chisaki guy has teamed up with the League of Villains, and even involved quite a few other yakuza organizations. It seems like he has a big plan, but I don't know the specifics."

"what!"

The news was so shocking that Tongxing Baiwan almost cried out, but luckily he covered his mouth at the crucial moment to avoid alerting the guards outside. The old team leader did not stop talking; he told everything he knew.

"The leader of the League of Villains has been to the Shie Hassaikai... As far as I know, that man is not all for one."

Having a very clear understanding of the emperor who once ruled Japan's darkness, the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" was also a worldly person who knew a lot of inside information. He was now trying his best to tell the hero in front of him important information.

"I never saw that man with my own eyes. When the League of Villains leader arrived, only Chisaki saw him...wait."

Suddenly remembering something, the old team leader corrected his earlier misunderstanding and slowly repeated himself:

"There was another person in the Shie Hassaikai who saw the face of the League of Villains leader; she was my granddaughter... Eri."

Chapter 42 Huili

Shocked and astonished, Mr. Nighteye's long-standing inability to make progress on information finally yielded a crucial breakthrough from the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai".

While overjoyed by the million-dollar prize, Tong Xing also fell into panic and confusion. If the "Alliance of the Enemy" really had something big in mind, what should he do now?

The old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" who provided crucial information cannot be allowed to remain here; we must find a way to rescue him from his current state of confinement.

However, while Toru's "penetration" ability allows him to infiltrate unharmed, it makes it far too difficult to bring people away. Rescuing the old team leader himself from such tight defenses is practically impossible.

"Don't worry about my condition now. Even if Chisaki goes astray, he won't hurt me."

"Find a way to take my granddaughter, Eri, with you. She has seen the true face of the leader of the League of Villains, and she will be of great help to you."

While Toru was struggling with his decision, the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" made the wisest decision. It is true that he is the old leader of the Yakuza organization, and he can still be full of courage even in this situation.

"But....."

Tongxing Baiwan was still somewhat hesitant, because Mr. Nighteye's order was to come to the "Shie Hassaikai" to gather intelligence, but if a conflict or battle were to break out, wouldn't that alert them?

"I want to go back and contact other professional heroes, including All Might, so that we can secretly organize a rescue. That would be a safer and more appropriate approach."

"No, that won't work. The League of Villains is far more powerful than we imagine. They'll find out about even the slightest thing. By the time you make your round trip, neither Eri nor I might be here anymore."

Mirio Togata rejected his suggestion. As the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai," he had been involved in yakuza organizations for many years and was very experienced. Putting aside the terrifying "League of Villains," the information about Izuku Midoriya and Mirio Togata coming to this city was very likely to attract Chisaki's attention.

The "Shie Hassaikai" is a local yakuza organization. Apart from a few local professional heroes, there are basically no outside heroes who come here to carry out missions. The local gangsters have a very strong intelligence network, and as a former leader of the local yakuza, he knows this all too well. Chisaki's skills were taught and guided by him.

“I know all the local professional heroes. You are a hero who came to this city from out of town. If you didn’t disguise your whereabouts when you traveled, then you should seize this one and only opportunity… Chisaki knows that a hero has already arrived!”

"Oops....."

Mirio Togashi, clutching his forehead, arrived in the city with Izuku Midoriya in a carefree manner. Putting aside his eye-catching pro hero attire, Izuku Midoriya alone was enough to draw attention.

What a blunder! In the end, he became obsessed with his heroic identity and forgot the most important thing about carrying out an infiltration mission: never reveal your identity from beginning to end... Now that the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" has brought this up, Mirio Togata realizes that he still has a lot to learn.

“I am guarded by many men. Your only chance is to take my granddaughter, Eri, away. Only she knows the true face of the leader of the League of Villains.”

Don't worry about a little girl who can't distinguish right from wrong. Can she tell the heroes who the leader of the League of Villains really is?

Once Eri has seen what that man looks like, she has a "personality" that can clearly reproduce it, such as Nighteye's "precognition".

Worried that his granddaughter Eri might be in danger, the old group leader was determined to have the hero in front of him rescue Eri, as only Eri had a chance to escape from the "Shie Hassaikai".

"I see!"

Having grasped the importance of the matter, Toru no longer hesitated. After discussing the specifics with the old team leader, he sneaked into the ground from the "Shie Hassaikai" and left.

"FAIZ, I need your help."

Reuniting with Izuku Midoriya, and hearing Mirio Togata's request, it was a dangerous operation that shouldn't be undertaken by a first-year student, but they had to rely on everyone around them.

Having just left the mansion, Toru Miriam immediately contacted Nighteye. Upon learning of the situation, Nighteye was also troubled and silent, but he immediately issued an order:

"I will immediately request assistance from the local city's professional heroes and police. All Might will also arrive here as soon as possible. Until then... you and Zero go and rescue Eri. Protect yourselves at all costs. This is an order!"

"learn!"

Without any hesitation, Mirio Togata immediately took action after receiving orders from Nighteye. After meeting up with Izuku Midoriya, who was keeping watch outside, Mirio made a request to his junior, saying that he alone was not strong enough to rescue Eri.

"I understand, let's set off immediately."

"Transform!"

"Standing By"

"Complete"

With no time to hesitate, Izuku Midoriya acted decisively, transforming into "Kamen Rider Faiz" to cooperate with Mirio Togata's operation.

"Be careful, you only get one chance!"

"Hmm... I'll handle it well."

Having reached a good understanding, Mirio Togata and Izuku Midoriya began their mission to rescue Eri, the granddaughter of the old leader of the Shie Hassaikai.

During the information exchange between Tongxing Baiwan and the old team leader, he learned that because Eri was just a little girl, she was not subject to any personal restrictions. Moreover, as the granddaughter of the leader of the "Shie Hassaikai", Eri's identity was that of a legitimate yakuza heiress, even though she was just a little girl at the moment.

Whether intentionally or unintentionally, Eri stumbled upon the meeting between the leader of the League of Villains and Chisaki. However, being just a naive little girl, even though the League of Villains leader had explicitly ordered Chisaki not to reveal his identity, the League of Villains leader was not angry that Eri had seen his face. In fact, he treated Eri very well, so Chisaki didn't need to do anything extra.

Of course, that person's identity must never be revealed. Although Eri can now move freely within the "Shie Hassaikai," Chisaki has also given a clear order that the young lady must not leave the mansion.

Everyone must keep a close eye on Eri's actions. If the young lady is allowed to leave the "Shie Hassaikai" even one step, she will be punished with death. In addition, no one should be allowed to find out the identity of the "League of Villains" from the young lady, otherwise they will suffer a torment worse than death.

There's one good thing about people in yakuza organizations: they're all very self-aware. Knowing that doing certain things will lead to death, no idiot would dare to try to break the rules and orders, because anyone who does is truly dead.

In short, the chances of rescuing Eri are much greater now than the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" who is under tight surveillance. At the same time, the little girl who knows the true face of the leader of the "League of Villains" is also much more important.

The chosen action is to rescue a little girl named Eri from the "Shie Hassaikai." Izuku Midoriya and Mirio Togata begin this important mission.

Within the Shie Hassaikai mansion, Eri, as the daughter of a yakuza boss, was actually treated very well. No member of the organization would disrespect her just because she was a little girl, since as the granddaughter of the old leader, she was likely to be the rightful heir of the Shie Hassaikai.

Of course, all of this is a long way off. Right now, as the young leader, Chisaki is the one the organization members are loyal to, and Chisaki is quite tolerant of Eri, after all, Eri is favored by that person.

She couldn't leave the mansion of the "Shie Hassaikai," but for Eri, there wasn't much difference between staying at home and being outside. The world is actually very small in a child's eyes; as long as there are people around to accompany them, that's enough.

Clearly, from Eri's perspective, the current "Shie Hassaikai" consists of many kind uncles, her grandfather who never leaves the backyard, Uncle Chisaki with his bird beak, and the kind black-haired uncle who rarely comes. They all treat her very well.

Children have a limited understanding of others, and their concepts of good and evil are basically derived from how others treat them. They see those who are kind to them as good people and those who bully them as bad people.

So now... "Little Eri, wanna play hide-and-seek?"

Mirio Togashi emerged from the ground, his head barely visible, and he spoke to Eri in a tone as if he were trying to deceive a child.

"A strange older brother I don't recognize?"

It's not scary for a head to pop out of the ground in this "individualistic" society. After all, people with different "personalities" and abilities are incredibly diverse, and even children can be exposed to strange common sense.

"I'm a big brother who just arrived here. Do you want to play together?"

It was a tone that sounded like someone trying to kidnap or deceive a little girl, but Tongxing Baiwan had no choice. As a hero, it was really shameful to use such improper methods.

According to the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai", people inside the mansion will not pay much attention to what Eri is doing, since no adult will have the patience to take care of a child all the time. However, as soon as Eri approaches the door and tries to go out, someone from the organization will stop her.

There are quite a few people stationed at the entrance of the "Shie Hassaikai". No matter what, they would not let their young lady slip out. After all, the young master of Chisaki had given a death order, and no one would joke with their own life.

So now, what Mirio Togashi needs to do is try his best to lure Eri away from the "Shie Hassaikai" area to a place with fewer guards, where Izuku Midoriya will be there to meet her.

To put it nicely, it's about rescuing Eri from the "Shie Hassaikai"; to put it bluntly, it's about abducting a little girl from someone else's home—the kind that's undeniable.

But there was nothing he could do about it. Mirio Togata couldn't just show himself, pick up Eri, and run away. Causing a huge commotion in the Shie Hassaikai would be detrimental to the retreat. His "penetration" ability meant he could leave this place alone without any obstacles.

The only way is to use language to lure Eri away from the crowds to the edge of the mansion. If we can take Eri away from the "Shie Hassaikai" quietly, that would be even better.

This was the old team leader's advice to Tongxing Baiwan, and now, as a hero, he's actually listening to someone else's grandfather and trying to abduct his granddaughter... Nobody would believe it if they told them.
