Chapter 8: Any Means Necessary

Izuku is currently in a meeting with his captains. Around a round table is Izuku himself,
captain of team Alpha; Hitoshi,
captain of team Bravo; Citrus,
captain of team Charlie; Dabi,
captain of team Delta; Mashiro,
and captain of team Echo; Toga.


Izuku: Today's agenda is dealing with these asshats.


Izuku says as he throws down a transparent folder on the table. On the cover page, there is a witch doctor masked man with mean looking eyes, aka, Overhaul.


Dabi: The Yakuza?


Izuku: Yeah. They are torturing a young girl in there, I want to save her.


Citrus: I thought you hated children.


Izuku: Yeah but I kill them swiftly, and without pain as much as possible. Overhaul is using this young girl to make money and drugs, that's unforgivable.


Mashiro: He does have a point.


Izuku: I've told Mashiro the basic gist of our plan, Mashiro can you it share with the others.


Mashiro: Certainly. I've done a bit of investigation and found out that 70% of their income comes from a single warehouse in the middle of Kyoto. It is highly likely that is their storage area. I told a few of my subordinates to follow any vehicle that comes in or out of the location and found that many of them goes to a carpark here.


Mashiro said as she points to a projection of the area.


Mashiro: The people there then goes into this location which is a traditional looking Japanese estate. They come out around 2 hours later with boxes and cargos and loads then back on the truck and repeats the cycle. This usually starts from 11pm at night until 5am in the morning. I am almost certain that the building is either their factory or their main base.


Dabi: Good work Mashiro, impressive as always.


Mashiro blushes at this comment as she hides her face from Dabi.


Toga: So when do we go stabby stabby on them?


Mashiro: Well that's the reason we called you all back. Unlike our previous operations, this isn't going to be an easy task. And assassination and abduction is a no go due to their abnormally high security around the little girl. Thus, we will storm this place.


Izuku: This way they can be gone once and for all.


Toga: Citrus let's see who can get more kills this round.


Citrus: Ohoho, you are on Toga.


Dabi: Hey don't forget me.


Citrus: You don't count, you are always third place. Be a good lighter and burn down more buildings.


Dabi: You bitch!


Citrus: Oh yea hot head you want some of this?


Hitoshi: Hate to spoil the party but there is a problem.


Izuku: What is it?


Hitoshi: There is already an agency searching for the Yakuza. It's the nighteye agency led by you know sir nighteye. I heard it from an upperclassman from UA who is interning with him.


Mashiro: That could be troublesome if they find out we are also targeting them.


Izuku: Tsk. That's not the main problem, it's his quirk.


The rest tilt their head in slight confusion.


Izuku: Haiz. His quirk is called foresight. I don't know the details but he can look into the future to a certain extent. The problem is if he uses his quirk on any Yakuza member, he can see when we are attacking and intervene according. It's 2 birds with one stone for him.


Citrus: Bruh, that sucks.


Toga: So no stabby stabby?


Dabi: Should I kill him first?


Izuku: No I highly doubt you can. He was once the side kick of All Might after all, he got tricks up his sleeves. Even ambushing him will be quite hard since his reflexes are godly.


Mashiro: So do we just call off the raid? I don't think we can counter him for now.


Izuku: That may not be the case. I have a plan that may work, but is extremely dangerous if we are caught. It involves Hitoshi mainly.


Hitoshi: Hmm?


Izuku: I know UA has an intern system once a semester. So I need you to intern with nighteye and possibly assassinate him. But if he foresees it, you are doomed. It will also compromise your position at UA and you.


Hitoshi: Who do you take me for Izuku? I'm the best assassin around.


Izuku: That I don't doubt, but do you really want to risk your position at UA?


Hitoshi: I'm surprised how dumb you can be sometimes Izuku. I'm far more loyal to you guys than UA, in fact I'll betray them if you give me $10. I'm a villain for god sake.


Dabi clapped his hand once for Hitoshi as Toga gave him a thumbs up.


Citrus: Is it settled? The moment Hitoshi assassinates nighteye, we go kill the Yakuza.


Izuku: Yes, unfortunately we will need to delay.


Toga: Alright then, I'll change the schedule accordingly.


Izuku: That is all, dismissed.


Scene change to Tomura


Tomura is currently eating lunch at a shopping mall.


Yes he can be normal if he wants to.


He had a rough morning. First he woke up to find that his charger for his phone spoiled and his phone is sitting at a chill 3%. He tried to find a spare charger but found it all broken to due to his previous rampage.


He wanted to ask Kurogiri to buy one for him but apparently Kurogiri had to go for his weekly maintenance since he was incomplete. When he asked sensei about a spare charger, sensei told him to go buy one from the mall, which was crowded. Tomura hates crowds.


When he arrived during breakfast, he saw a very nice looking fluffy pancake for sale at a nearby cafe. It was his favourite flavour, blueberry. But he realise if he were to buy it, he won't have enough money for the charger. He begrudgingly walked past the cafe and to the electronics store.


When he entered, they had ran out of USB type C and only has lightning cable left! Needless to say Tomura wasn't happy. He almost disintegrated the counter clerk and the whole store but somehow kept his cool.


After walking around for an hour, he finally found an electronic store which sells type C cables and realise that it's going for twice the retail price. When he asked why, the clerk just said, if it's too expensive then go buy somewhere else.


Tomura cursed him internally but ended up buying the cable. Now he is pretty much broke. The funding for the LOV is sub par to say the least.


He is now eating a single cinnamon roll bread for lunch as he sits on a nearby bench inside the mall. People are avoiding him due to his shady appearance but he actually prefers it.


???: Is this seat available?


Tomura heard a voice spoke out to him. He look up to see a gray haired man with round glasses smoking a cigar.


Tomura: Do what you want.


Tomura didn't care in the slightest as long as the man didn't disturb his already horrible day.


???: It's been a while since I have seen you.


The man said this directly to Tomura, which got his interest. Tomura has no idea who this man was and thought he was crazy.


Tomura: I don't even know you.


???: Makes sense. The last time I contacted your master was when you were still a boy. He told me that you are his successor in the future.


Tomura didn't sense that this guy was lying so he replied.


Tomura: You know sensei?


???: Yeah, use to be business partners back in the day, but ever since he started to raise you seriously, I've never heard from him since. All for One is a busy man after all.


Tomura now confirms that he knows sensei.


Tomura: Who are you?


The man took out the cigar from his mouth as he exhaled a puff of smoke. He stands and bows as he says.


Giran: Giran at your service.


Scene change to Nezu


Nezu is currently walking in an ghost town in Osaka. He has accompanied by Aizawa and Toshinori who both act as bodyguards for him.


Nezu: This is the place.


Nezu knocks on the door 3 times with the third knock being slightly louder as a signal for the man inside.


???: I paid my rent already, go away!


A voice of a grumpy old man was heard shouting from the other side of the door. Aizawa and Toshinori both look at each other, wondering if Nezu had become some sort of debt collector.


Nezu: You are mistaken sir, we are here to enlist your services.


Old man: Hor?


A few heavy footsteps later, the door slightly opens to reveal the person inside. The old man peeked his head through the little creek, as he examines the 3.


Old man: a mouse, another homeless guy and a skinny guy, y'all don't look rich to me. My services are expensive, any broke people won't be able to afford it.


Just as the old man was about to shut the door, Nezu spoke.


Nezu: If it's money you need, it's money I have. Nezu proceeds to take out 10 $100 bills from a suitcase he brought along as he puts it in the door creek.


The old man eyes widen at the money as he swings the door wide open.


Old man: Oh my bad, I didn't know you are the real deal, come in come in.


Aizawa: Bruh.


The 3 walk inside the house which was dimly lit with not many furniture or decors. The wooden table looks like it was rotting from old age and the chairs were held together by duct tape.


Old man: So what may I do for you?


Nezu: I will like someone to be tracked.


Old man: Since you came here, I'm sure you know the rules. I need to ingest a piece of the DNA of the person. Anything is fine, from hair to saliva to well...you know.


Nezu: Yes we have a piece of his hair.


The old man sighs in relieve.


Nezu brings out a test tube filled with one strand of green hair and presents it to the old man. The old man proceeded to pour the hair into his mouth as he drank some water to swallow it. (A/N: Don't do this kids)


The old man's eyes begin to shine some light as he quickly grabs a pen and paper, and starts drawing.


The 3 look at the old man hastily draw down a picture of Izuku's geographical location as his eyes slowly begin to turn back into normal.


The old man finishes up the drawing as he passes it to Nezu. Normally, it will be near impossible for a normal person to find the exact spot given only a picture of the place. But this is Nezu we are talking about.


Nezu: Thank you sir, here's the payment.


Nezu places down a suitcase full of $100 bills in front of the old man as the old man begins to count the money.


The 3 leaves the house as Aizawa closes the door.


Aizawa: That was quick, not that I'm complaining.


Nezu: Yes, it was.


Toshinori: So where is he?


Nezu smirks as he said.


Nezu: Right under our noses.
