Chapitre 150: Chapter 146
Tıp! Tıp! Tıp!
The sky, adorned with dark clouds, began to shed tears after dozens of blows. The initially drizzle sky slowly accelerated and eventually turned into torrential rain.
Raindrops fell one after another. The burning buildings of the Japanese were extinguished one by one, accompanied by the sounds of "Tss~~". The rain was washing the blood in the streets, the water that accumulated in the streets had a red color and flowed into the sewers.
After the end of the war, the streets were crowded with ambulances, firefighters, police, and heroes. Even people hiding in their homes mobilized to go out and help people in distress.
"Go there."
"Help me remove this rubble."
''Meal is ready. Is anyone hungry?''
People coming out of their homes were doing various things, not just to help. Housewives were preparing food in the stalls they set up with the help of their husbands. Covering their muscular bodies with raincoats, they were running from house to house and rescued people from under the rubble. A few retired police and army individuals were leading the people and leading the crowd.
Splash! Splash! Splash! Splash!
They were running from side to side, accompanied by the sound of splashing water with hard steps. The rain was not an obstacle for them to stop. Lots of people were moving in the rain.
This was true throughout Japan. There were similar scenes in every city.
Except for one city.
This city was completely deserted. That's why it wasn't home to crowded streets, heroes, or police like in other cities. Good thing it didn't, because even the remnants of the battle here were enough to kill most people from heart attacks.
This city was completely in ruins. It was as if every building in the city had been cut in half by a great force. Without exception, every building was cut cleanly from a certain floor.
The facades of buildings close to the city center had melted away. Because they were extremely hot, there were remnants of liquid that had turned into stone after the pouring rain.
The city center no longer existed. On the site of the city center, there was a crater that stretched hundreds of meters. Even the depth of the crater was hundreds of meters, and the water pipes and sewers in various parts of the crater had dried up, and hot steam was constantly coming out of them.
A few hundred meters beyond the crater was a huge slab of igneous rock reaching into the sky. The heat of the igneous rock could be felt even from outside the city. Rainwater evaporated as soon as it touched the rock, so a large amount of steam was spewing into the sky above the boulder.
Tens of meters from the rock, two building fragments were stuck in the ground. The entire city had turned into a gigantic battlefield and nothing was left intact.
Chop! Chop! Chop!
The sound of helicopters echoed in the sky. More than fifty helicopters flocked to the city like insects swarming into the light. These were the helicopters that had to go backward in Blake and A.F.O's war. They were recording from several kilometers away, as even the shock waves of battle could tear them apart. Fortunately, the technology was very advanced and they could record even from a few kilometers away as if they were at their bottom.
Brummm!!
Not only helicopters but also various government vehicles and private vehicles were flocking here. Unlike news companies, these vehicles contained heroes. Behind them were fire engines and police vehicles.
Endeavor, Hawks, Edgeshot, Kamui Woods, Gang Orca, Shishido... All the heroes in the top 25 were watching the city with serious expressions in their oncoming vehicles and preparing for the potential war that was coming. Except for Ryukyu and Rumi.
Well, the person they would soon meet was someone who had defeated even a demon lord like A.F.O with no choice but to run away. Even the prospect of fighting such a person made them feel a great deal of pressure on their shoulders.
They didn't want to fight him. But after what he did, there was only one outcome for Blake, and they might have to fight him to get it.
Vhmmmm!!
A red, jeep-like vehicle jumped off a small knoll and crashed to the ground noisily, causing the heroes and driver inside to jump.
After the jump, every person in the vehicle looked at the driver with accusatory looks, but all they got was a wry smile. There was nothing the driver could do. As the main roads were unusable, they had to drive through hills and rough terrain with off-road vehicles, and the urgency of the job was bound to be an uncomfortable ride.
As for the main roads, several kilometers of main roads and side roads were covered with craters and cracks due to the aftereffects of the massive war. Some mountain roads collapsed, and underground tunnels running through the mountain were left under stones.
Knowing this, the heroes inside the car focused on their own business. Endeavor wrapped his arms in front of his chest and turned his head to look out the window. His frowning expression was reflected in the glass, unknown what he was thinking.
"Teka…" Yoshino, sitting in the backseat, watched the city collapse from the window, his hands resting on his knees, his fists clenched. There was only one thing he could think of right now. He also wanted to see his wife, whom he had left to die, as soon as possible and confirm his situation.
**
Tak! Tak! Tak! Splash! Tak! Tak! Splash!
The sound of footsteps was accompanied by the sound of splashing water. The sound of splashing water was more and more audible, and the sound of footsteps became less and less. The murmur of the rain was accompanied by the pleasant sound of the water hitting the leaves.
One foot was getting closer and closer to the puddle of water that had accumulated in the ground as it descended. A handsome face was reflected in the water at the last moment before the shoe hit the water.
Splash!
The shoe stepped into the puddle, the water splashed around. The puddle rippled and erased the handsome face reflected in the water.
Ts!! Ts!! Ts!
Drops of water fell on him as they advanced. However, none of them touched the walking figure and the person in his arms. The drops of water that would fall on them were evaporating after a small "ts~~" sound.
Despite this situation, the handsome young man had brought her as close as possible to protect the woman in his arms from the cold and wind. He kept walking with a warm smile, occasionally dipping his hand into the lava hair of the woman in his arms, rubbing her hair or skull, causing her to murmur a little.
These were Blake and the unconscious Teka.
"You have very good taste, Hanbun-deshi. I watched her battle and I see my own shadow in her. If you train her well, she can become a perfect queen like me." The lonely but penetrating beautiful voice Blake heard in his ears made him smile unconsciously. He hugged the woman in his arms tighter, his eyes gleaming with pride.
"Yes, she's perfect." Blake was proud as if he had bragged himself. As if sensing his feelings, Teka muttered softly and started rubbing her chin on his shoulder.
Blake stroked her hair as an apology. Teka nodded as if to say "that's better" and continued to sleep. Blake spoke with a warm smile.
"Are you still calling me Hanbun-deshi? After all, we've done, it's time for us to become real teachers and students, what do you think?" Blake continued walking in the rain. The moonlight filtering through the tree branches occasionally illuminated his body. He stepped on a branch, lifted his body with strength in his feet, and continued walking after stepping on the ground on the other side of the branch. All the while his body had not been shaken, and the sleeping beauty in his arms had not disturbed her sleep.
"If you want it, why not? But I will continue to call you that. Think of it like a nickname I gave you." Blake could sense a rare hint of emotion in her lonely voice, and he could tell from the emotion in her voice how much she liked that nickname.
"Sure." He shrugged. He had no issues with it.
Splash! Splash! Splash!
During Blake and Scathach's speech, Blake continued his walk. The rain started to get stronger, now the sound of splashing water could be heard at every step. With each step, a large amount of water was spilling out. Thousands of drops of water were falling to the ground like small balls.
Blake's masculine figure was now visible at full size on the water's surface. However, still, no drop of water was touching him or Teka.
His walk took many minutes. For someone who had the world's fastest speed in his body, going a few hundred meters after minutes was very abnormal, but Blake had no problem with that.
Bits of steam was coming out of Blake's shoulders. Pieces of steam formed by the evaporated water due to Teka's heat spread to the sky and made the environment hazier.
Between his walks, Blake saw the exit of the forest.
One end of the woodland where they were located extended into the city. The entrance inside the city had been turned into a natural forest park and extended to the wooden borders they had crossed long ago. The rest of the area was forested land that ended up in the mountains.
The other end of the woodland stretched to the main roads, and that's where Blake was aiming.
But it was strange for someone like Blake to be walking so slowly with the unconscious Teka in his arms. He had to take his future woman, whose condition was uncertain, to the hospital as soon as possible. But in this case, it was not necessary. Teka's condition had stabilized long ago.
Unlike Rumi's situation, Teka's situation was the heat and pressure in her body. Since she did not have a problem such as broken bones that could remain in her body like Rumi, this problem was completely resolved thanks to the speed power he transferred to her body along the way. Her fainting had gone minutes ago and was replaced by a peaceful sleep.
He would still send her to a hospital, but that was for rest.
As he neared the exit of the forest, a bright light flooded his vision. Blake's lips flashed a knowing grin for a moment, but that grin disappeared the next second. He stepped forward and saw what was outside the forest.
Dozens of cars lined up. Police cars, fire trucks, ambulances, various ladder vehicles, and special vehicles were lined up in various positions. The headlights of the vehicles were on, illuminating the entrance to the forest, indirectly the duo emerging from the forest.
These were the top 25 heroes to come to this city for Blake. In the sky, currently standing on the edge and staring at Blake with a secret killing intent with feathers hanging in the air around him, with the help of the Hawks they were able to find out the way that Blake was walking through the woods and quickly settled in this area where he would come out.
A hundred policemen lined up behind them, aiming at Blake at the entrance of the forest. The heroes in the top 25 were standing in front of the vehicles and waiting for Blake to come out. Yoshino, on the other hand, was one step ahead of his son, biting his finger nervously.
His expression turned ugly as Blake appeared. However, this expression melted away when he saw Teka and was replaced by a regretful expression. Then when he saw the situation between the duo, his face become ugly again. He intended to step forward, but Endeavor's arm stopped him.
Yoshino looked at his son, questioning what he was doing. His wife's condition was unclear, moreover, his wife in this condition was now in the arms of another man. Did he want him to stop?
"Father, his intentions are not clear. You can't just go to him." However, for the first time in his life, Endeavor defied his father and continued to block him with his arm. He continued to scowl at Blake as he spoke.
As he said, Blake's intentions were unclear. Given his personality, there was a possibility that he would attack them as they left Teka to die. This being the case, he could not send his father to die.
"I understand, but… your mother…" Yoshino was turning his head to Yoshino and Teka in Blake's arms with a troubled expression.
Seeing Teka's condition broke her heart. He had forgotten long ago what had happened before. Now all he wanted was to meet his wife as soon as possible and take her to the hospital.
But what he didn't know, or rather didn't want to remember, was that the tolerance Blake had shown him was coming to an end. He would no longer allow him to reunite with Teka, nor would he allow him to talk to Teka. As long as he was with Teka, Yoshino shouldn't even think about seeing Teka again.
''I know. I will do something about it. Trust me and stay back." Endeavor stepped forward. His shadow spread across the floor as his huge figure slid in front of the headlights of the car.
Dim headlights illuminated the wooded entrance. The falling water drops were visible in the light of the car headlights. Blake, who was in the target area of the lights, was looking at the shadowy people in front of him without squinting. From the beginning, his gaze remained monotonous as he looked at the crowd in front of him.
He brought Teka close to his chest so that she wouldn't be disturbed by the light, and lifted the arm that was stretched through her hair, bringing it before her eyes.
It was a small gesture, but it made it clear to everyone how much he cared about the woman in his arms. Closing her eyes so that the light would not affect them was the most basic, but most affectionate gesture.
Yoshino's eyes turned bloodshot when he saw Blake's movement. Understandably, after all, the woman in his arms was not a stranger but his wife. Even though he had left her to die, he was still her husband and Teka his wife. The only person who could touch her like that was himself.
However, Blake didn't give a fuck about it, continuing to control Teka. After making sure that her sleep was not disturbed, he stepped forward.
"READY--" Endeavor shouted to the heroes to prepare. They all knew that Blake could take anyone down at once, but that didn't mean they would just stand there. They were Japan's top 25, their position was not just a joke.
The heroes took up their fighting positions at his shout. Not only them, but even the cops also pulled out their guns and took up positions on the hood, the car door, or with their legs bent.
Grab! VHOSHHH!!
Fighting each one waited for Endeavor to finish, but before he could do that, Blake suddenly appeared in front of Endeavor and grabbed his chin with his hand. Endeavor's words were cut abruptly.
In previous times, whenever Blake ran, there was no momentum or airflow. The speed power could bend the laws of physics at will and let the speeder use it as he wished. Momentum was included, and airflow from momentum was invalid for Blake.
This time, however, Blake's speed was followed by a large amount of airflow, causing the surrounding people to be knocked back and lost their stance.
Grasped by Blake, Endeavor's brows furrowed deeper. He spread his hands wide, flames extinguished by the winds Blake had unleashed, bursting out of his body once again.
Blake gave strength to his hand as he continued to stare at Teka with a warm smile. Endeavor stopped with increasing strength, the pressure he felt in his skull at the limit. If the power was increased by one click, his jaw would shatter.
"Be quiet and put out those flames. You're going to wake her up."
Grg!!
He tightened his grip on his words. The veins on his wrist were exposed, his words as sharp as knives in contrast to his warm smile.
Endeavor stopped resisting. His eyes moved and he looked at Teka. As Blake had said, Teka's brows were furrowed and her peaceful expression lost due to his shouting and rising heat. She tried to lift her head from Blake's shoulder.
Teka was a light sleeper, even in normal times. Because of her workaholic personality, 4-6 hours of sleep a day meant good sleep for her, and even at this time, it was a habit for her to wake up from her slumber as she received phone calls or emails from the company.
Endeavor's distant shout would have been enough to wake her up if she had been asleep rather than unconscious. Moreover, as someone who could control lava, she could feel the temperature rise outside even though her body was still covered with lava.
When Endeavor saw Teka's scowl and her nervous expression saying, "How dare you to interrupt my sleep," he controlled his fire and turned it off. He might have been unconscious, but that look was enough for Endeavor, whose fear of his mother was etched into his bones, even more so when Blake threatened to rip his jaws off.
He raised his hands and took a step back as he stared at his mother's unconscious face. Teka nodded like "that's better," then laid her head back on Blake's shoulder.
Swipe!
Blake waved his hand and left Endeavor at random. Endeavor staggered back. He stroked his red-haired chin with his hand. His joints ached, and little cracking sounds were coming from his jawbone. It was probably broken.
Blake paid no more attention to him and started walking with Teka in his arms. Teka regained her comfortable sleep and continued her sleep with a pleasant smile.
A delicate expression hung on her face, she looked like a sleeping baby. After the stress and sleepless nights that had piled up on her shoulders in recent days, sleeping with the security Blake had given her the best sleep she could have imagined, and she didn't want to let it go.
Teka's expression, which did not match her harsh and arrogant personality, caused Blake to chuckle.
"Hnnnnnnn...." On the contrary, Yoshino had a shitty expression. His face was extremely wrinkled, watching Blake's actions with his wife caused it to flare up from his throat to his heart. Blood flow quickened, and veins appeared on his neck and wrists.
However, this expression dissipated when he saw the naive expression of his wife. A thin smile rose on her face, which she could see even through the raindrops and the steam from Teka's heat.
That smile was precious. It came from the bottom of her heart, a smile of pure happiness and confidence. Her eyes were slightly downturned, clearly showing how much she enjoyed the situation.
His expression went blank and he looked stupidly at Teka. Even he could only see Teka's current expression of happiness when he cared about their marriage, the first few years of marriage, when they got married. For the remaining decades, smiles like this had been replaced by bittersweet smiles and expressions that concealed great heartache.
He unconsciously stepped forward, reaching out his hand to reach Teka. He felt that he was losing his wife. Under the pouring rain, Blake was coming step by step in his direction, but the distance between them was too far.
And at that distance, Blake was holding Teka and walking away from him with his back to him.
Blink!
He blinked. The illusion is gone. Contrary to what he saw, Blake was getting closer and closer to him. But the feeling was still there. It had settled in his heart and made him understand some things. And these feelings caused him to panic more and more. His breathing quickened as if he were short of breath.
Blake was just a few meters ahead of him when he was experiencing waves of emotion. He meant to walk past him without looking at him.
Splash!
But he stopped his steps with a loud splash of water. Everyone's attention was drawn to him. Yoshino stared at him from the corner of his eye as he held onto the position he was trying to reach forward.
Blake turned his eyes to the side as he stared forward and looked down at Yoshino, who was a head younger than him. His gaze bore a shapeless print, full of emotion. It contained ridicule, contempt, humiliation, anger for another, disgust, and many other emotions. No words were needed, just that look was enough to describe how he felt.
Yoshino's hair stood up. How could there be so much emotion in a single glance? He had so many bad feelings for himself that these stares were more than he could handle. He was nauseous.
Blake took one last look at the pathetic creature, exhaled through his nose, and began walking among the heroes with Teka in his arms.
This time, no one stopped his advance. The cops, aiming at him with their guns, didn't even dare to think of the idea of squeezing. The hands holding the guns were shaking, a few recruits had dropped their guns on the ground and were hiding inside the vehicle.
Blake went through them all. The hero he passed was taking a step back, even experienced 40-50-year-old cops falling on their butts onto the wet asphalt.
Blake passed between them and headed for one of the ambulances at the very back of the group.
Pat!
The nurses and ambulance drivers who saw Blake took a step back. During their setback, several nurses fell to the ground. They put their hands on the ground and tried to pull themselves back.
Blake ignored them and came to the back of the ambulance and opened the door. He stepped inside and entered, uttering a single word before closing the door behind him.
"Drive."
"!!!!!!" The nurses and the driver were startled. They looked at each other, then turned their cries of help to the heroes and the cops. Their tearful eyes screamed, "Help!!"
But no one could help them. Blake's momentary strength and the oppressive air in his presence had shattered their intent to fight. On the heroes' side, even the strongest, Endeavor, were immobilized in a single move.
They called themselves heroes and claimed they would fight him even though they knew they couldn't defeat him. However, the reality was completely different. Blake's one move was all it took to discourage them.
The heroes bowed their heads and rubbed their necks with their hands. Wicked smiles adorned their faces. Even Hawks was staring at the sky with a strange expression and whistling.
"Hik*" Hospital staff who failed to get help would almost cry like children. From the corners of their eyes, water, unknown to be tears or rainwater, was flowing.
BANG!
''Fujiya Hospital. Now!''
"Hiiiiiii!!" His desperate cries and cries for help were interrupted by the loud noise. The vehicle was thrown to the side, and the vehicle, weighing in kilograms, stopped on two wheels for a while, then fell on all four wheels with a loud noise. Hearing Blake's freezing cold voice, the employees let out high-pitched shrieks.
They instantly got up from the ground and did not try to ask any more heroes for help. After getting stuck in the ambulance, they started to drive the vehicle.
The heroes looked at Endeavor, asking what they should do. As hero #1, Endeavor held the lead and the last word in situations like this.
Endeavor watched the ambulance go silently away. He sighed and waved his hand and got into the car. After the heroes took turns getting on after him, they began to follow the ambulance.
***
Every hospital in Japan was jam-packed, and with every minute more and more injured patients, emergency people, injured heroes, cops, and ambulances were coming in. It only took a few minutes for a hospital to fill up.
A few tens of minutes were all it took for a hospital to be filled to the brim and even to have wounded in their gardens. Doctors, nurses, and heroes with the healing Quirk were working non-stop.
The painful cries of the people kept coming out of the hospital. The operating rooms were packed. Desperate cries of families and cries for help echoed in the garden. They begged to let them in and pounced on the doctors who were coming out for a moment to catch their breath.
The situation was dire. Apart from the presence of a villain, even what they left behind was a source of pain for normal people.
But despite all this, one hospital was empty. Even though it was one of the most well-known and popular hospitals in the city, no one approached him, no matter how serious their condition.
Fujiya Hospital, a.k.a. the hospital Blake bought and passed on his rules.
This hospital was busy as usual until yesterday. People were going in and out of the hospital one after the other, sometimes ambulances would bring in emergency patients. The hospital was running its daily routine.
But because of what happened in only half an hour, the people of Japan did not use this hospital, no matter how urgent it was.
The owner of this place had killed 70 people minutes ago without blinking an eye. The facial expression while doing this was etched in the minds of the Japanese people. His cold eyes were fresh in their minds, he killing them like weeds.
It was impossible for people of the MHA world to use such a person's hospital. Because of Blake's last act, their thoughts towards him had completely vanished and their fear had peaked, now clearly excluding and isolating him.
Thinking it would be as quiet as the last hour, the doctors saw an ambulance coming from far away. The lights of the ambulance were on, and judging by the driving speed, he must have been a near-death patient.
The ambulance rushed through the streets and approached the hospital. When it was 200 meters away from the hospital, it started to slow down gradually and stopped when it got in front of it.
''Be quick. Come on, come on, get the stretcher. Prepare the ventilator and sterilize the operating room. Major surgery is waiting for us." The Chief Doctor, who did not leave Rumi at the time, thought that he was carrying a patient who was about to die from the speed of the vehicle, and quickly began shouting orders.
He was aware that the ambulance did not belong to their hospital. But in the current situation, no hospital cared about it. As long as an ambulance was standing in front of the hospital, they would go there and intervene in the patient.
The doctor was devoted to humanity and loved to heal people and help the sick. He was someone who, no matter how minor, did his best to cure a person's illness.
For the Chief Doctor, who is such a person, the last half hour of inactivity was torture. They had helped the nearby streets, but no ambulance they sent was coming back here. According to the information they received, the relatives of the patients who learned that they were from Fujiya hospital said that they should go to another hospital or they would get out of the ambulance.
So after helping the surrounding streets, they did nothing but just stand there. Most of the villains had fled, it was dangerous for them to go out and they had to stay in the safest place, the hospital.
Excited at the prospect of finally helping a patient, he rushed to the ambulance. His hands were shaking with excitement, he reached for the ambulance door, but before he could, the door opened.
Blake was standing on the edge of the Ambulance with Teka in his arms. When he saw someone in front of him, he pulled back his forward leg. He lowered his eyes and looked down at the Chief Doctor.
Blake and the Head Doctor made eye contact. The Head Doctor's pupils constricted for a moment. The light reflected from behind Blake caused his shadow to fall on him and appear very small.
Blake stared at the head doctor for a moment, then stepped forward and landed next to the head doctor. He started walking to the hospital without looking at him or the dozens of heroes and police vehicles coming at full speed on the road.
The footsteps were very loud. People inside and outside the car were visibly shaking at the sound of their steps. Blake passed between them with a lazy expression. The Teka in his arms shone like a lantern in the dark street.
It continued to rain. There were small floods in the streets. There were no people on the streets, the bad guys and the people who were supposed to be on the street because of the rain locked themselves in the house.
All the people in their homes were now watching Blake from their windows. Watching Blake with squinted eyes, a few were holding phones and calling the police or the heroes. They treated Blake like he was the devil.
Blake ignored all looks and entered the hospital garden. Water splashed with his steps, and his figure, untouched by even drops of water, looked holy in the moonlight. He waved his hand back.
CRACKLE!
Lightning roared. The entrance door, including the walls that define the hospital's boundaries, was covered with lightning bolts reaching into the sky. Blake's back was getting smaller and smaller at the sight of the heroes and people watching him through the door. Blake's cold voice echoed in the garden.
"Only girls are allowed in until she wakes up. Be prepared to die if you intrude." [EN: Girl=Harem members]
