As the declaration of battle begins, Izuku Midoriya and Tomura Shigaraki gradually approach each other, drawn together like destined rivals.

"Stein, go and bring Huili here. The heroes must not know the leader's identity."

"Tch... Why should I take orders from you?"

Despite uttering complaints and grievances, "Hero Killer" Stain obediently followed orders and carried out his mission. The League of Villains had instructed him to obey Shigaraki Tomura's orders and arrangements, and disobeying him would likely result in dire consequences.

"asshole...."

Now that Mirio's physical age has been reversed and reduced, his combat ability has also declined sharply. Izuku Midoriya cannot sit idly by and watch "Hero Killer" take Eri away. Just as he was about to turn around and stop Stain,

"Are you already distracted before the war even starts?"

By blocking Izuku Midoriya's path ahead of time, Shigaraki Tomura delivered a powerful punch to Kamen Rider Faiz's chest. The heavy force of Kaixa caused sparks to fly from Midoriya's chest armor as he stumbled backward.

"FAIZ!!"

"Now is not the time to worry about others, kid."

Upon arriving in front of Toru, the terrifying face of "Hero Killer" Stein appeared before the two children. At this moment, Eri was somewhat frightened and shrank back behind Toru, as if this uncle in front of her was even more frightening than the "bad guy" who had kidnapped her.

"Kid? No, I'm a hero."

Unexpectedly, Tongxing Baiwan showed no fear. Instead, he leaped up from the ground and jumped in front of Stein, kicking the enemy in front of him.

The "Hero Killer," a master of hand-to-hand combat, was naturally not going to be hit by such a simplistic attack. However, his hand, which he used to block the attack, failed to stop the right leg. Mirio Togata's "Penetration" Quirk ignored all of the enemy's defenses and delivered a powerful kick to Stain's face.

Although his physical age was changed to that of a child by Eri's "Rewind" quirk, his years of accumulated combat experience and awareness have been deeply ingrained in his bones. Even if Mirio Togata becomes a child, he is still that excellent hero, and nothing will change because of it.

However, that being said... having a child-like physique and age still greatly affects strength. Mirio's "Penetrating" Quirk is okay because it doesn't require much strength support, but it becomes somewhat awkward when his strength also becomes like a child's. Right now, Mirio's strength is far from enough to defeat Stain.

"Interesting, then I'll play with you a bit longer."

Rubbing his face, which had just been kicked but didn't hurt, "Hero Killer" Stein's eyes gleamed with a terrifying light, like a hunter eyeing his prey. Now he would see if this kid was a real hero or just a fraud.

"Just like last time, FAIZ's strength is far inferior to Kaixa's. I regret wasting my time looking for you."

"is it?"

A cold and angry voice answered Shigaraki Tomura's words. It was Kamen Rider FAIZ who appeared in front of Kaixa in an instant and kicked him hard in the chest with a burst of speed. Hit by this sudden attack, Shigaraki Tomura was sent flying backward and crashed into the wall. The concrete building was dented by Kaixa's back.

"Damn... what kind of speed is this?"

Clutching his chest, Shigaraki Tomura stood up from the hole in the wall. Protected by the Kaixa Armor, he was unharmed, but Midoriya Izuku's actions still exceeded his expectations. Although he knew that Kamen Rider Faiz had a new power that allowed him to move very fast, Shigaraki Tomura never expected that the speed would be so terrifying.

The first setback was quite embarrassing for Kamen Rider Kaixa. Shigaraki Tomura put aside his arrogance and carelessness and decided to deal with the kid in front of him seriously and cautiously.

When dealing with the Shie Hassaikai, Izuku Midoriya had only a little time left. Now that he had encountered Shigaraki Tomura, he activated his final acceleration without hesitation, first and foremost to take revenge for the previous grudge.

"I said I'd beat you until you cried!"

"asshole...."

The two Kamen Riders clashed again, but Kaixa was no longer able to suppress Faiz as before. This was mainly because Izuku Midoriya lost his mind due to anger the first time, and he was only able to be ambushed by Shigaraki Tomura because he was worried about Mirio Togata. In a real battle, Faiz is in no way inferior to Kaixa.

The Kamen Riders engaged in close-quarters combat, each punch delivered with tremendous destructive power. Their attacks clashed violently against each other, and the sparks exploding from their armor demonstrated the intensity and terror of the battle.

"Kid... no, you're very skilled, you've been through countless trials and tribulations."

Stain, the "Hero Killer" who had fought against millions of others, was completely overwhelmed by this kid in front of him. Stain's "Penetration" ability allowed him to dodge all of Stain's attacks with unparalleled skill, as if Stain had predicted and judged all of Stain's actions.

Stain's fighting style was very similar to Mirio Togata's, taking corresponding actions based on the opponent's movements. However, the person in front of him did it even better. The "Penetration" Quirk, combined with terrifying precognitive judgment, gave the Hero Killer the illusion that he was fighting against someone with an "invincible" Quirk.

If it weren't for the fact that Toru's physical age had become that of a child, and that Stain's physique hadn't turned him into a monster, this "hero killer" would probably have been defeated 100% if he had encountered this hero.

At this point, Stein expressed his respect for Million, after all, a hero who could train himself to such a level could not be one of those imposters who chose to become a professional hero for fame and fortune.

But regardless, Stain still had missions to carry out, and now, as a member of the League of Villains, Hero Killer wouldn't waste any more time getting entangled with Mirio Tomokazu.

"I'm sorry, the game has to end."

"What nonsense!"

Instead, he responded with a punch to Stain. Mirio Togata's move was similar to before, using his "Penetration" Quirk to break through all defenses, his fist landing squarely on the "Hero Killer's" face. However...

Blood flowed out, not from Stein's face being injured, but from the fact that his fist had struck something like a blade, cutting open a wound from which blood flowed.

"I said the game is over."

Unaware of the situation and filled with doubt, Million quickly distanced himself from "Hero Killer," while Stein calmly wiped his face with his right index finger and licked the blood that Million had just shed into his mouth.

When his "Blood Coagulation" ability was activated, he was instantly paralyzed and unable to move.

The punch that just landed squarely on Stain's face. However, this "hero killer" is no longer a normal human. After receiving the new power bestowed upon him by the leader of the League of Villains, his entire physique has transformed into that of a monster.

"Blood control" is a new power that Stain gained after becoming a monster, just like Bradkin, the homeroom teacher of Class B at U.A. High School, who has the ability to freely manipulate the blood in his body.

By solidifying his blood into sharp, blade-like spikes, Stein had set up a blood trap beforehand. His attack was tantamount to trapping himself in the enemy's net, and from that moment on, he was stripped of all mobility by the "blood coagulation."

"hateful...."

Regretting his carelessness and unable to stop "Hero Killer" Stain from taking Eri away, Toru Mirio can now only place his hopes on Izuku Midoriya, but the situation on that side has also deteriorated.

"Shigaraki Tomura...you bastard!"

"Surprised? I thought you were the only one with a new form and power. Kaixa won't be defeated by FAiz."

Having already gained the upper hand in hand-to-hand combat, and with Izuku Midoriya completely overwhelming Tomura Shigaraki with a barrage of attacks, the League of Villains made an unexpected move: Kamen Rider Kaixa, like Faiz, activated the command for a new form.

"Complete"

As the belt of Kaixa rang out, energy filled the entire armor. When Izuku Midoriya launched his attack, it felt as if he had struck a steel fortress, and he was instead thrown back by the powerful force.

"Armor Mode, let me have some fun with you."

The function added to Kamen Rider Kaixa by a certain mastermind is the opposite of Kamen Rider Faiz's "Acceleration Form". Kamen Rider Kaixa's new function, "Armor Form", has high attack, high defense, damage reflection, and low speed. It is a good form for taking a beating.

Chapter 45 Old man, your personality is the most useless thing ever!

The situation was extremely bad. Mirio Togata, who had been turned into a child by Eri's "Rewind" Quirk, was unable to escape with Eri due to his already severely weakened strength. In the battle with "Hero Killer" Stain, he was cut by this monster-like enemy and bled. Now, under the influence of his "Blood Clotting" Quirk, he was completely unable to move.

Similarly, Izuku Midoriya also fell to the ground in defeat. After Shigaraki Tomura transformed into Kamen Rider Kaixa and activated his "Armor Form", all attacks were ineffective against him, and Faiz was even blasted back by his own power.

"hateful...."

Izuku Midoriya was filled with regret. He had been too careless and made a mistake. He thought that his "Accelerated Form" would be enough to deal with Shigaraki Tomura, but he did not expect that Kaixa also had a new form power. At this stage, he had no way to defeat him.

"I should have equipped the 'Burst Mode' as soon as possible."

He was inwardly blaming and cursing himself, but in reality, it was impossible for Izuku Midoriya to do it. It would take a long time to fully load Faiz's "Burst Form", and there was only one cycle left before the Hero Training Program. Even if he worked day and night, he still wouldn't be able to make it in time.

But reality is always disappointing. The more you fear something will happen, the more likely it will happen. The alliance between the League of Villains and the Shie Hassaikai was blocked by the enemy just when they were about to obtain crucial information, and they were about to be completely defeated.

"Izuku Midoriya, you are very good. After seeing your performance at the U.A. Sports Festival, the leader specially sent me to test your strength. It is very remarkable that someone would value you so much."

It is a duo who received orders from the leader of the League of Villains to hunt down Kamen Rider Faiz. Shigaraki Tomura tells this story in a standard villainous tone.

"Judging from the results, you have improved a lot since last time, but you are still too inexperienced."

"Humph!"

Without responding to Shigaraki Tomura, Izuku Midoriya was trying his best to remain calm. Kamen Rider Faiz was clearly far weaker than Kaixa, and forcing a fight would only put him in a completely disadvantageous position. He needed to find a way to make an opportunity.

After Toru was immobilized by "blood clotting," Eri was also held in Stain's arms. Since the hero assassin had clearly told the little girl that he was taking her to see "Uncle Black Hair," he avoided the unexpected trouble that would result from Eri resisting and using "rewind."

The situation was dire. The two heroes had been defeated by two enemies, and just as the important witness was about to fall into Stain's hands, police sirens blared, and the police and pro heroes Nighteye had notified arrived.

"This is a police station, don't move!"

Having escaped and aimed their pistols at the enemy, the three professional heroes rushed straight towards the scene. At the same moment, Izuku Midoriya also realized that his opportunity had come.

“The annoying guys are here. Stein, get ready to leave. Just take Eri and Chisaki with you.”

Surrounded by police and heroes, Shigaraki Tomura remained completely unmoved; to the League of Villains, this was simply an opportunity to leave whenever they wanted.

Holding Eri in one arm and with the other arm around the unconscious Chisaki, a black void appeared in front of "Hero Killer" Stain, and the "portal" of black mist opened.

"The enemy is trying to escape, fire now!"

There was no time to hesitate. Under the shouts of the pro heroes, the police officers who were aiming at Stain and Shigaraki Tomura pulled the triggers of their pistols. At the same time, the three pro heroes also launched a surprise attack from the side. They would not stand by and watch the enemy escape.

The bullets fired missed Shigaraki Tomura and Stain. A gigantic monster appeared from the "portal" opened by the black mist. It was a Nomu, an artificial human created by AFO. These Quirk-synthesized monsters blocked the bullets and intercepted the approaching Pro Heroes.

"Exceed Charge"

The voice command for the special move belt sounded, and Izuku Midoriya assumed a half-crouching posture. Now was not the time to consider showing mercy; he absolutely could not let these two go.

"Huh? Are you going to use that ultimate move?"

Without a hint of surprise but with a touch of pleasure, Shigaraki Tomura turned on the Kaixa phone on his belt, entered commands, and prepared his finishing move.

"Exceed Charge"

"Then let's see whose ultimate move is stronger."

With both the crimson and golden energies fully charged, Kamen Rider Faiz and Kaixa had their special moves ready. Izuku Midoriya then ran straight to Shigaraki Tomura, determined not to let the guy get away so easily.

Kamen Rider Faiz leaps into the air, kicking his legs at Shigaraki Tomura, unleashing a burst of crimson energy from his drill.

At the same moment, Kamen Rider Kaixa also leaped up from the ground, facing his destined opponent. A golden energy drill appeared, and he launched a Rider Kick counterattack.

The "Crimson Drill" and the "Golden Drill" collided in mid-air, and after the two energy drills connected and spun at high speed, they exploded violently, and the two figures fell to the ground.

The violent impact jolted Izuku Midoriya to the ground, and after he tumbled several times, his Faiz belt came off and fell to the ground. The excessive impact caused him to deactivate his transformation form.

"Looks like I've won by a hair this time."

Unlike Izuku Midoriya, Shigaraki Tomura, who had fallen back to the ground, was not in a sorry state. Although he had also deactivated his Kaixa transformation, he was still standing firmly on the ground and was now preparing to enter the "portal" of the black mist.

"Compared to taking FAIZ's belt now, it's definitely more valuable to keep it with you. I'm really looking forward to fighting you again next time."

Goodbye, heroes!

After uttering their final sarcastic remarks, Shigaraki Tomura and Stain disappeared into the "portal," taking Eri and Chisaki with them. The only clue that led them to the truth about the League of Villains' leader within the "Shie Hassaikai" was severed.

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

Izuku Midoriya and Mirio Togata's mission failed, but it can't be said that they gained nothing; at least the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" was rescued.

This is a relatively complicated situation. The League of Villains doesn't care that their plans have been exposed to the heroes. Rather, they are taking this opportunity to declare war on the heroes, and a crisis that will shake the stability of the entire hero society is coming.

The leader of the League of Villains had given orders to keep his true identity a secret, so the two people Shigaraki Tomura and Stain took away, Eri and Chisaki, were the only people in the Shie Hassaikai who had ever seen Akaya Kaiun's face.

With the help of heroes and the police, the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai" threw the members who were loyal to Chisaki into prison. This yakuza leader, who has a chivalrous spirit, doesn't like heroes, but he hates enemies who have no bottom line or principles even more. So now he is very cooperative in telling Nighteye about the "League of Villains".

As a hero agency specializing in collecting intelligence on the League of Villains, Nighteye is well-liked and a professional who often handles similar matters. After contacting Mirio Togata and learning the importance of the situation, Nighteye immediately rushed to the scene and then handled the aftermath.

After learning detailed information from the old leader of the "Shie Hassaikai," Nighteye's expression never improved. The actions of the "League of Villains" were unexpected and astonishing. This terrifying enemy organization was about to win over all the dark figures in Japan without anyone noticing.

But considering that All For One was in the League of Villains, it's not surprising that this situation would occur. After all, for him, it was just about rebuilding his collapsed empire, and even now, many people are still afraid when they hear his name.

Even now that we know about the League of Villains' plan, we cannot act rashly. This matter involves too many people, almost bringing together the entire Japanese underworld. If we take any action, it could lead to chaos that disrupts social stability.

Nighteye needed to call All Might over first, and then slowly discuss how to deal with the situation, but just thinking about it gave him a headache, so he had to turn his attention to Izuku Midoriya.

The three people have now returned to Nighteye Agency. At this time, Mirio Togata is still tragically stuck in the form of a child. According to the old team leader, Eri's "rewind" personality is not a simple temporary effect. If there is no other solution, Mirio may have to experience growing up from a child all over again.

Although Nighteye regrets what happened to Toru, he is not thinking about solving his problem right now. The most important thing at the moment is the situation of the League of Villains.

After focusing his gaze on Izuku Midoriya, Nighteye hesitated before speaking:

"Didn't Shigaraki Tomura mention that the leader of the League of Villains values ​​you highly?"

"That guy did say that, but he was probably interested in the new form of the FAIZ belt."

Izuku Midoriya recounted his encounter with the League of Villains to Nighteye. He nodded without denying it, but in Nighteye's opinion, the enemy was probably after the Rider Belt. After all, his performance at the U.A. Sports Meet was meant to lure the enemy out, but it backfired.

"I see... Now I have a proposal."

In a serious tone, Nighteye earnestly said to Izuku Midoriya:

"My Quirk is 'Precognition,' which allows me to see a person's future experiences through their actions. If what Shigaraki Tomura said is true, then perhaps I can see the true face of the leader of the League of Villains right now in you."

"But this is not a simple matter. Strictly speaking, everything seen through 'precognition' will actually happen. For example, if I see you encountering death, that outcome will inevitably occur at some point in the future."

"The decision is yours, and it may affect your path, so you must think it through carefully and make your own decision."

In order to find out information about the League of Villains, Nighteye could only put his sights on Izuku Midoriya after the trail went cold. If it was this boy who had a deep entanglement with the enemy organization, he would definitely meet Shigaraki Tomura again, and he might even see the true face of the League of Villains leader.

The Quirk of "foresight" can greatly increase the chances of obtaining information from Izuku Midoriya. However, as Nighteye said, this matter concerns the future fate of a young boy. Ever since Nighteye saw All Might's future "death scene," he has never dared to use his Quirk on others casually, as he might unintentionally see a scene that he would regret.

It depends on the consent of the person involved; this is the only thing Nighteye can do right now. When he told Izuku Midoriya about his proposal, the boy replied just as Nighteye had expected:

"Please, Mr. Nighteye, use your Quirk to find those guys from the League of Villains."

Without hesitation, Izuku Midoriya immediately agreed to Nighteye's proposal. For him, the most important thing was to wipe out the League of Villains completely, as that enemy organization still held his most admired and relied-upon "teacher" in their hands.
