The explanation from Hokusai shook their sanity, and they could only stare at the sky in a daze.
The bomb, which had the shape of a fat missile, was seemingly funny, yet no one could laugh at this moment.
The blaze area was one kilometer, and the height was ten meters.
How could they stop this?
Their minds stopped, and they knew that death was coming.
Those who were close and weak had already given up. Their legs were just too weak to walk, and they could only fall on the ground as they watched the bomb drop, but those, who were right on the one-kilometer radius, quickly scattered and ran as far as possible.
Those who watched a few kilometers away also did the same.
Many couldn't comprehend what was happening.
The government was all at its wit, thinking about what kind of tragedy it would lead to when this bomb dropped and exploded.
No one thought whether Mineta, All-Might, and other heroes could stay alive after this.
When this bomb was dropped, it would explode and raze everything into nothing.
The fire from the bomb would also burn the people, charring them into ash.
Wait, what if this bomb was fake?
Some suddenly thought, but they were all ignored since if this bomb was real, what would happen?
Everyone had given up.
No one could stop this disaster.
Even All-Might, who was known as the number-one hero and the symbol of peace, was also helpless since he could do nothing against this bomb.
Yet, when everyone was in despair and gave up, a figure suddenly soared into the sky.
"Huh?"
"Minoru!"
Ryukyu quickly shouted, trying to chase after him, but he was too fast.
Before everyone reacted, he soared to the sky and wrapped the bomb with his substance. By then, he kept moving into the sky at speed right below the speed of sound.
"...you're lying, right?
Even Hokusai and All-For-One also stopped when they saw Mineta suddenly flying into the sky with a bomb.
When Mineta reached 5,000 meters above the ground, he bounced the bomb without hesitation.
*Whoosh!*
In the sky, no one could see him, and he used his "Calm Manipulation" to erase all the resistance around the bomb, making it able to reach 6,000 meters above the ground easily before it exploded.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMM!*
As the Tuman Bomba exploded, the sky roared.
The black sky turned blazing red.
It was like a scene from hell.
Everyone could only see everything in silence as they watched the bomb explode.
"Minoru!"
Ryukyuu quickly wanted to chase after him, and no one stopped her.
At that moment, everyone's face was pale.
His figure couldn't be seen since it was too small for one to see.
Besides the blazing sky, one couldn't see anything, and they could only lay on the ground weakly as they thought he was dying from this explosion.
"Wow..."
Even All-For-One had to amaze by Hokusai's power, and it made him interested in Hokusai's Quirk, but when he thought about Hokusai's actions and goal, he shook his head since he knew that he could trust Hokusai. He also knew about Hokusai's goal.
Lastly, even if he stole Hokusai's Quirk, could he use it as well as him?
Naturally, Hokusai had explained about his "Quirk," which was an "Ink Manipulation," but to create something out of his art, one needed a lot of detail in their brain and an ability to draw.
Even if All-For-One had Hokusai's Quirk, he believed that he couldn't use it as well as him, so it was better to have him as his trusted person.
"You okay?"
"I am not. It takes a lot of my energy to create that."
"Well, if you can stand up after all of that, everyone is going to be crazy." All-For-One chuckled, then said, "When we have reached a safe place, I will try to give you a stamina-type or an energy-type of Quirk."
"Huh? Can you do that?"
"Of course." All-For-One smiled and said, "Leave everything to me, so just focus on the best art."
"Thank you, but..." Suddenly, Hokusai's expression became gloomy, and he said, "I wonder whether we can get out from here..."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
However, All-For-One quickly noticed the anomaly in the sky.
In the blazing red sky, a black cloud billowed, and thunder kept rumbling as if an angry god was about to descend.
When everyone was stunned by this scene, they suddenly saw a dragon suddenly emerge from the cloud.
"ROOOOARRRR!"
The roar of the beast echoed everywhere like a volcanic eruption, causing everyone to feel helpless, like when one faced a natural disaster.
Yet, suddenly, they heard a calm, clear, and firm voice.
His voice might be loud, but strangely everyone could hear it.
"Assimilation."
The dragon suddenly disappeared, and a figure appeared in front of everyone.
Mineta Minoru.
No one could forget about his figure, even if he was far away.
However, unlike before, his appearance was slightly resembling a dragon now, and he was holding a hammer, staring at All-For-One and Hokusai.
"!?"
Their goosebumps rose, and they felt danger was about to approach them.
*BOOOM! BOOOM! BOOOM!*
The thunder roared and struck Mineta's body.
However, Mineta was alright. Instead, his appearance became even more dangerous. He was really like a god who descended from heaven to destroy the stupid mortals who angered him.
He was in the sky and spun his weapon with an incredible speed above his head as thunder, fire, and everything were gathered around, making it appear even more dangerous.
"Ragnarok!"
His eyes were staring at All-For-One and Hokusai as he swung his hammer down with great force, smashing it in their direction.
*BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOM!*
With a force that wasn't even lost to the explosion, an explosive wave of force traveled into All-For-One and Hokusai.
The two watched all of this in a daze before Hokusai was suddenly pushed away by All-For-One.
"Sensei!"
Hokusai was dumbfounded.
"It's okay. Stay alive for me."
All-For-One shook his head before he watched Mineta's attack, which was about to swallow him, but how could he give up?
All-For-One had a lot of ambition, and it was impossible for him to fall down!
All-For-One quickly used an air cannon, which was enough to smash everything in the hundreds of meters, but in front of Mineta's might, it was quickly swallowed down before his entire body was broken.
Hokusai, who had escaped, also wasn't completely unscathed since half of his body was smashed by force, causing him to bleed, have several concussions, and break bones.
The two were instantly defeated and unable to do anything.
The two fell to the ground, and the police quickly caught All-For-One, but strangely enough, Hokusai disappeared.
Meanwhile, Mineta, who had used the attack, quickly returned to his normal appearance before falling into the sky. However, Ryukyu, who had chased after him, quickly caught him as she called his name desperately.
"Minoru! Minoru!"
However, he only stared at her for a while and said, "I will reward you when I wake up."
"Don't say a stupid thing, bastard!" Ryukyu blushed and scolded him, but he didn't give her a response since he had already passed out, which made her panic.
Yet, at this moment, everyone in this country realized that even though the previous symbol of peace had fallen, a new symbol of peace was born.
