บท 72: Reactions and Kyudai's Crib
__________POV Narration__________
Allan's fight with All for One was a huge event. Nezu had made sure it would be shown and talked about on every big news station.
Every person that had a television opened in their home during that time would've seen it. One such person is Izuku. After getting home from the USJ attack he didn't get to do much, he barely got changed and his attention was captivated by the headline.
"Japan's Most Powerful Villain Alive Fighting the Nr.3 Hero!" He obviously knew who the Nr.3 hero was. But he didn't know much about the Villain he was fighting.
But after a minute of watching the fight, he realized that that title wasn't a joke.
He already knew Allan was strong. Even during the USJ incident, it was quite clear to him just how big the gap between Allan and other heroes was. Let alone people his age. He was probably the strongest hero in Japan.
Izuku knew that much, especially after he had learned of All Might's weakness. Seeing Allan fight the villains at USJ just further solidified that belief. And now, he was watching a villain fight Allan on an even field.
Even though Allan seemed to be disregarding his presence from time to time...
But then, the villain injected himself with something, it was so fast that Izuku's eyes could barely catch it happening.
But the next moments were a lot more suspenseful for the viewers at home. The villain seemed to gain a great deal of strength out of nowhere.
But the hero seemed just as unbothered as before. His lax demeanour calmed down the people at home.
Although it was quite terrifying to watch a hero give mortal injuries to a villain repeatedly.
Rumi was no different. She had called Allan for the sole purpose of poking fun at the situation he was in. Informing him of his grocery list was just a bonus.
But she didn't expect things to turn out that badly.
Sure, the media did say this guy was some big shot villain. But this was completely out of her expectations. Looking at the screen from her office she couldn't help but feel worried.
She wanted to start heading in that direction, but her office wasn't anywhere near the place where they were fighting. It would take her 15 minutes even with a helicopter.
And she was about to start calling for one. But then she noticed just how calmly Allan was reacting to the whole development. It seems she was worried for no reason.
The next few minutes encapsulated that, Allan shredding the powered up villain like a blender would a fruit. It wasn't a pleasant scene for the viewers at home, the news stations had to apply some censor on the brutality of the situation.
The villain healed just as quickly as he was damaged. But Rumi could notice that he was acting more like on instinct than on the skill he had shown previously.
In the beginning, he seemed quite prideful and dignified, now he was just a mad beast. But then he seemed to regain his wits.
That was also where the fight ended, however. As Allan seemed to get bored of playing with the villain. At least that's how it looked to Rumi.
But she knew there was more to it than that, Allan wasn't the type to give himself more work, even if it happened from time to time. He had no reason to keep fighting that villain besides trying to capture him.
She could make that assessment because she knew Allan well. But the people watching had no way of knowing that Allan wanted to capture this villain at first.
They thought that he just wanted to kill him. But seeing him do it so easily made many question why he had prolonged the fight as long as he did.
The anchor seemed to clear things up for them. "It seems that capture wasn't possible, the hero was forced to end the villain's life..."
This was obviously Nezu doing his part, he already had his phone in his hand when All for One started talking again. He was prepared for every outcome after all.
This might not have been the best possible outcome, but it was manageable.
Toshinori looked at the ground again, he couldn't help but feel relieved. The next generation succeded where he had failed.
But it felt wrong to him. The ease at which Allan could take his rival's life. He couldn't quite put his finger on it. It was surreal.
Allan was already the strongest hero in Japan in the eyes of the teachers. But this was something else entirely.
Even earlier when he took care of that raid. It was mostly filled with street thugs so it wasn't as impressive as the students believed it to be. But this was the most dangerous villain in Japan, the one who All Might couldn't finish in his prime.
Not even mentioning that drug they saw him take. Trigger was already in the sights of the police force and the heroes. But now they were likely going to start hunting down the dealers with a vengeance.
Any villain that saw this fight would be more likely to try and get his hands on the drug. It was an unfortunate repercussion to the wide coverage Nezu had given the situation.
But they would deal with it, it wasn't that major compared to what happened just now.
From now on, Japan has two Symbols. One was the Symbol of Peace All Might the other was the newly risen Symbol of Justice, The Yellow Flash.
The symbol he represented had been etched on his coat for a while now. Meaning he had always planned to represent Justice. Much to the satisfaction of the police force and the government.
But now Allan wasn't really concerned with the public's perception. He had to continue his plan. The next on the list was All for One's most trusted subordinate, Kyudai Garaki.
__________POV Allan__________
After making sure the authorities didn't have any issues with recapturing Shigaraki and collecting All for One's corpse. I flew towards Kamino Ward, it was the place that housed Kyudai's laboratory.
At least that's what I remember about it. It's supposed to be an unassuming Wearhouse in which he carried most of his experiments.
Anyway, After scouring the town for a bit with my perception I found it... The only problem was the fact that there wasn't anyone inside to greet me.
My perception didn't pick up anything, And after passing through a window I found out that this place has been abandoned.
It seems All for One changed his base of operations for a while now. Dust coated everything in this place.
Kyudai seems to have already found a way to copy quirks. Otherwise, I can't really explain how he managed to make that many Nomus.
But that shouldn't matter much. I honestly doubt anyone will be stronger than the quirk's original user. Who I've just faced.
I released an annoyed sigh and left. It seems that Kyudai will be a pain in the ass for a while longer.
I still have ways to find the mad doctor. But I think some rest is in order. At least for a while. Maybe I'll deal with him after the School Festival.
For now, I started heading home. Not forgetting to stop by the market and buy some chocolate milk and about 5 kilograms of carrots. I am a good dad after all.
The people in the market all looked at me weirdly. Maybe because my costume is still dirty. But most of them still held some awe in their eyes when seeing me.
Which didn't feel gratifying at all! Yep, it certainly doesn't feel nice being recognized and admired by people.
Although... Some people had another emotion in their eyes, it was fear. I could easily recognize it, villains looked at me like that since forever now.
Maybe borderline torturing a villain on camera wasn't that great for a publicity stunt? Not like I had much choice. I couldn't really hold the villain in place at all, he broke through any restraint I tried placing on him.
Dismembering him was the best method to keep him in place. Oh well, not everyone was fearful. This was still a much better outcome than the bridge incident.
