He had continued doing his intermittent modelling work which only made him more popular at school and even on the street as he had started to mature a little and become more handsome than cute. He wasn't quite out of his cute phase, but he was at least halfway there now. This all had only grown his popularity the only thing that kept him from being as popular as he could be is that he only worked for his mother's companies and refused requests for work from other companies.
He enjoyed it when it didn't take a lot of time, it was also not intended as a future career as besides helping his mom his other intentions were just to build a little popularity to help in her hero debut once he went to UA and participated in the sports festival. Having some popularity before would give him a leg up by having the media focus on his performance right off the bat. He could swing this to a better internship which in turn would benefit him when he becomes an actual pro hero. When you build a building you have to start with a good foundation.
This had definitely helped his mother though as he was a hot commodity and they were the only one with it. Lot's of girls and even some women were fervently buying their products for themselves to dream of getting a boyfriend like him or some of the products modelled by him for their boyfriends if they had them to dream of him while being with their boyfriends. Poor guys, though James definitely wouldn't care if he knew about it. Rather he would fuck them right in front of them if he felt like it. His standards had gotten quite high though over the years as he was surrounded by beautiful women.
They had continued to grow his organisation increasing the amount of operatives and even Himiko helped him with it sometimes, though she could be a little unreliable as she had to be in the mood to do something. Quite often she was only in the mood the laze around him while demanding attention from him. If she wasn't motivated to do something she was less than useless. Tsumugi had really come into her own with extra years of experience, also being slightly older probably didn't hurt as new agents were more likely to take her seriously as a leadership figure.
Mio had expanded her own abilities along with starting a small department of her own that handled all technology related needs of the organisation. A lot still relied on her though as they had been unable to find anyone even close to her skills.
There was finally some good news. They had been keeping track of Eri and recently her grandfather had died at the hands of Overhaul or rather Chisaki Kai. This meant they would have to move soon as it meant he had already become interested in Eri's potential and he needed to retrieve her before they made any progress in their research which would result in the quirk erasing drug.
Just like with Himiko's case he already had Mio and her team gather all the information regarding Overhaul and the Shie Hassaikai group as a whole. This would be a much more serious operation though as last time it was just some guards, whereas this time he was going up against an entire criminal organisation that had leaders with powerful quirks to resists him. Thankfully he had grown a lot since last time.
Chisaki Kai had moved into the inconspicuous mansion that used to belong to their former leader and "adopted" Eri who was seen less and less frequently outside after the adoption even being pulled out of her school.
They had already gathered all the information regarding the mansion and using cameras around the neighbourhood and a tracking algorithm Mio was able to build a pretty reliable list of people that were generally present or frequently attended the area making them likely to be a part of the Shie Hassaikai.
This wasn't going to be a simply extraction mission though as this was a dangerous group, there was no way they would accept losing Eri and they also could not let any information regarding Eri or any progress towards any research surrounding her quirk get out or things would just keep escalating at which point he would rather just kill the girl and be done with it. He had some compassion, but it was very limited as soon as this became too much of a pain in the ass he would definitely choose the easy way out.
James was geared up and actually had his people surrounding the neighbourhood while incognito prepared to pick off any strays. This included people on the ground and a few snipers placed in strategic locations completing the mouse trap they had built.
He had left Himiko and Momo out of it as they were still too young, inexperienced and naive to take part in the mission as he didn't want to risk himself or them when it wasn't necessary. The only person he had some slight concern about was Chisaki Kai or Overhaul with his quirk. He was fairly certain he could handle him, but he was a rather unpredictable one, but every other member of their group didn't even require a second thought for him.
Tsumugi helped helped him into his gear as he had hid his plans from the two girls that would never accept being left out of something he was involved in if they knew about it. His gear was mostly the same though quite a few sizes larger now than the last time he had to personally attend an operation. He was also geared up a bit more than before this time not only having the combat knife, but also having a pair of dual pistols with a variety of ammunition that could help deal with Overhaul. This included special incendiary, explosive and freezing rounds all created with various chemicals and even the help of matching quirk holders.

"The encirclement has been completed sir." he heard Tsumugi tell him from his headset as he was flying high above the mansion belonging to the Shie Hassaikai. With his improved eyesight he could actually see them scurrying around while even if they looked up all they would see is the cloud cover. Maybe someone with a quirk that improved their sight would be able to see him, but they would need to know he was coming and where to look neither of which they did.
"Affirmative." he answered shortly.
From his vantage point he could actually see some of his members encircling the mansion from a distance they would not notice until it was too late and the operation had commenced.
"Is my team ready?" he asked.
"They are moving in right now." Tsumugi confirmed.
This time he wouldn't be moving alone and instead was leading a team of eight of their strongest members. Unlike when he infiltrated the institution holding Himiko this time he would be dealing with a much larger and stronger force. Not only that, but they were all also hardened criminals that wouldn't hesitate to kill even kids. Though he was much stronger now than he was then he wasn't going to take any necessary risks.
He stopped flapping his wings dropping himself backwards into a free fall the wind blowing through his hair and feathers as he neared terminal velocity too fast to be noticed by anyone only spreading his wings for a sudden deceleration just before he could splatter on the ground landing behind his team he had noticed. At times like these he was always happy with his wings and enhanced physique as if he didn't have both of these things he wouldn't have pulled off such a dangerous act with the amount of Gs it put him through.
"Greetings sir." they all said at the same time and saluted him. He just nodded at them to return their greeting.
They were dressed in a similar manner to him wearing black fitted outfits. The main differences were their equipment selections. Unlike his closer range and melee focus that suited his enhanced body and skills they were more varied and more prepared for ranged combat. Six were equipped with assault rifles two of them with grenade launchers attached. The remaining two were carrying light machine guns. They all only carried a single pistol as a side arm unlike James.
They were all equipped with a variety of rounds and grenades beyond the standard just like James in preparation of Overhaul and any other possible eventualities that might occur. Though most quirk holders could still be taken out by regular munition there were always exceptions.
"We will be moving in now. Try to eliminate them as quickly as possible. The further we can reacher before they realise what is going on the quicker we can get this all over with. If we encounter the target or Overhaul leave it to me unless ordered otherwise." he told them.
"Yes sir." they responded resolutely. They had been trained well enough to stand out in any military. They might still be a rather small organisation there were two things that James didn't waver on and that was requiring quality and loyalty. The latter naturally guaranteed through his contracts so all he truly had to be worried about was hiring talented high quality personnel and his contracts would handle the rest for him.
"Mio, connect us." he orders.
"Done sir." she quickly responded, their earpieces now all connected together.
They start rushing towards the mansion. They can see the rear entrance guarded by two people that seem quite relaced.
"Commence." he orders.
The six snipers stationed as far as possible from the mansion simultaneously fire taking out the guards guarding the outside of the mansion dropping them without alerting anyone. At the same time one of his squad members throws a smoke grenade which distracts the two guards left at the entrance giving James a chance to rush them at his fastest speed while unsheathing his combat knife. He manages to end both their lives before they are able to alert the ones inside the mansion.
The rest of his squad to catch up moments later. Most of them join him on both sides of the door while the last one takes out a battering ram and breaks open the door. The second the door opens two of the riflemen cover the sides immediately eliminating the small team of 4 guarding inside with their assault rifles.
The clock is really running now as there is no way they didn't hear either the battering ram smashing the door or the gunfire that followed it.
James signals for them to start moving immediately as the team enters crouch running and covering the hallway with one of them taking point and James covering the rear.
Their point man checked around the corner before signalling they were clear so they continued further into the mansion. As they moved down the hallway they repeated the same tactic as their original entry busting down the doors along the way and eliminating any enemies present in the room. Anyone armed was quickly ended by a bullet to the head or chest while non-combatants were knocked out and/or restrained. This was done to prevent anyone from sneaking up behind them.
Finally they were getting to the main hall where they encountered a larger grouping of 18 thugs already expecting them after all the noise had caused them to gather together there and they were armed to the teeth.
Since they were already noticed James had them throw in a combination of flash bangs and smoke grenades which ended up blinding them and obscuring their senses before the two automatic rifle men laid down suppressive fire while the rest of the team entered the main hall.
Due to the element of surprise provided by the grenades and sudden fire half of the thugs were already down before the rest had managed to duck behind cover.
