Everyone's eyes are focused on this day when the U.A. High School Sports Festival is held, and it is also the day when many professional heroes join forces to encircle and suppress the notorious hero killer.
Iida's older brother, the pride of the prestigious Iida family, the order maintainer Ingenium, whose real name is Iida Tensei.
As one of the top heroes (top thirty) leading this operation, he had targeted the hero killer a long time ago. This city is not Ingenium's area, he took the initiative to participate in this dangerous operation.
"Team A is responsible for the north side, Team B is responsible for the west side, and a full search is underway."
The voice of a colleague came from the communication earpiece configured in the armor combat suit similar to Iida Tenya.
"Team A received."
"Team B received."
Forced by the unknown Quirk of the hero killer and the extremely strong combat power shown by his record, except for a few top heroes who are searching alone, all ordinary professional heroes are acting in small team mode.
When Ingenium maintained a second gear speed and searched along the selected route, he passed a dim alley.
He noticed the anomaly in the alley.
"What is that?!"
Using his skills, he shifted his center of gravity and completed a drift like a race car without losing speed.
During the process, he recalled the special preparation.
"Without a doubt! It's that guy!"
Next, he arrived at the abnormal alley.
Because it was between two buildings, the alley didn't have the same temperature as outside, appearing cold and slightly damp.
Standing opposite him was a brutally violent criminal who had killed twenty-eight professional heroes.
The Hero Killer, Stain.
Apart from the red scarf, what made people fear Stain the most were his eyes.
They seemed to be the embodiment of burning madness and obsession.
"I've found you! Hero Killer Stain!"
"You, a heinous criminal who has killed twenty-eight professional heroes, I am the professional hero U.A. Ingenium, and I will arrest you for intentionally injuring others!"
"Stop resisting! You won't get hurt!"
In response to Ingenium's words, Stain sneered disdainfully.
"You hypocritical heroes!"
"You have no right to judge me!"
"Except for All Might, all are fake heroes! You bunch will be corrected by me!"
As he spoke, Stain pulled out his knife and pointed it at Ingenium, his gaze as casual as if he were looking at ribs on a chopping board.
"You will be the first 'offering' this city gives to a correct society."
"There must be someone bathed in blood!"
"It's up to me to awaken the real heroes!"
"Come on, bring it on, fake hero!"
Ingenium felt the murderous aura emanating from the Hero Killer Stain was as thick as blood.
Just judging from the momentum just now, Ingenium changed his strategy against Stain from single-person capture to delaying and waiting for reinforcements.
This narrow alley itself was not conducive to the performance of his "Turbo" Quirk.
But as a hero, Ingenium could not let the Hero Killer escape here no matter what.
Even a brief moment could result in someone getting hurt.
Without any hesitation, he directly entered the "Burst Sprint" state.
Like his younger brother, the exhaust pipe on his arm made a sound, emitting a blue light, and the horsepower and speed of the "Turbo" Quirk were raised to the extreme.
Although his maximum speed is much slower than Iida Tenya.
(Since the formation of the superhuman society, from the second to the third generation, Quirks have become more complex and stronger.)
But he has the advantage of rich combat experience and much deeper close combat skills.
Ingenium started with a high-speed side kick.
The target was the Hero Killer's calf.
In terms of power and skill, Ingenium surpassed his younger brother by a lot.
The shock wave caused the air wave to spread violently in all directions.
"It's fast, but not enough!"
Stain blocked the powerful side kick with his knife thanks to his excellent instantaneous reaction speed.
But Ingenium's offensive did not end, he used the powerful thrust of the exhaust pipe to swing a beautiful roundhouse kick.
But obviously, Stain is more proficient in close combat.
For this commonly used double kick in martial arts, he had predicted it early and dodged this roundhouse kick by slightly leaning back, only the leg wind swept past his face.
Stain's offensive also followed.
Just as the blade was about to touch Ingenium, Ingenium once again adjusted his body posture skillfully through the acceleration thrust of the exhaust hole, and stepped on Stain's blade with the advantage of speed.
With the reaction of the side blade, he flew onto the wall of the alley, then borrowed the reaction force, this high kick, just breaking through the air resistance, the leg wind can cut open human skin.
Attack moves, speed, power, skills, all reached Ingenium's combat peak.
This blow actually shattered the blade that the Hero Killer used to block.
But the terrifying impact force directly pushed Stain onto the wall of the alley behind him, forming a circular crack around the wall.
Unlike heroes like Endeavor who advocate no mercy to criminals, Ingenium belongs to All Might's faction that tries not to kill enemies as much as possible.
"After taking my full strength, unless it's a regenerative Quirk, you're likely to lose your combat ability."
"Hero Killer! Surrender!"
"I won't continue to hurt you!"
However, Ingenium thought that the Hero Killer Stain, who couldn't stand up and had lost his combat ability, unexpectedly stood up against his expectations.
Only to hear Stain slowly say.
"It's over."
It turns out that at the moment of taking that hit just now, Stain had cut a small wound on him with another knife when Ingenium wasn't paying attention.
In the fight where adrenaline surged, such a wound is hard to detect.
But, as a trigger condition for activating Quirk, it was achieved.
Bloodcurdle Quirk activated.
Before the words fell, Ingenium lost control of his own body.
"My body... can't move..."
"Is this his Quirk..."
Ingenium could only watch step by step, as Stain, holding a blade stained with a bit of fresh blood, walked towards him step by step.
His consciousness is very clear, but there is no way to make his body move.
"Tenya... I'm... going to lose... it's over."
Ingenium's eyes were filled with his own greenness when he first became a professional hero.
At the point of death, Ingenium still had no regrets.
He doesn't regret becoming a hero, doesn't regret participating in this event, doesn't regret facing the Hero Killer here.
If it wasn't him, then the one who is going to die now would definitely be someone else, and that kind of thing, the order keeper Ingenium, would never allow even in death.
The only regret is for those who care about him, and most importantly, his family.
But if you want to maintain order and protect peace, then someone must carry the burden and move forward.
Fortunately, this time the malice will not get what they hope for.
A violent storm comparable to the center of a category thirteen typhoon suddenly swept towards Stain.
Faced with such a force, Stain tried to maintain balance by sticking the blade into the mixed soil.
But, this wind is strange, Ingenium on the side was not affected at all, as if the influence of this storm only existed where Stain was.
Before the professional hero arrived, Stain felt a bit tricky. Before realizing his grand plan, he would not choose to go head-to-head with the first batch of top heroes.
But the storm won't let him escape so easily, the rude and huge wind force directly threw him onto the wall, after breaking through several empty warehouses, Stain struggled to get up and ran away.
The controller of this directional storm is naturally Accelerator.
After stepping into the city, he has been constantly using computational power to deduce vector perception of the surrounding vectors, and he never forgets to constantly look for abnormalities while flying at high speed.
After all, rescuing Saten Ruiko cannot tolerate any carelessness.
Just now he passed through this area, through the authority given by Shokuhou Misaki, he naturally knew about Ingenium's mission.
Accelerator would not pay attention to these things originally, unless there is a particularly large change in vector.
Just right, Ingenium's kick that broke Stain's one knife produced a huge kinetic energy change.
The "eyes" of vector perception also scanned the things happening here.
Through the combat suit, he also obtained Ingenium's ID, and there is no doubt that the enemy who can make Iida's brother burst out such combat power should be the notorious Hero Killer Stain.
But no matter what, he can only help Ingenium not to fall into life-threatening danger through such means, for him it is just that.
As for, in the matter of chasing the Hero Killer Stain, in terms of priority, after all, if he has to make a choice now, he chooses to rescue Ruiko first.
Whether it's public or private, Ruiko is affected because of his relationship, and protecting her is also one of the responsibilities that Accelerator thinks.
And the actions and routes of the Hero Killer Stain are also marked by his perception, and there will be nearby reinforcements of professional heroes going to trouble him in groups, even if he escapes by luck, he will not be comfortable.
However, that Hero Killer Stain still has some stuff, after taking a hit from Accelerator's side storm, he can actually maintain mobility relying on his body and willpower.
When he has time, he'll take care of it.
As for Iida's brother, who was either seriously injured or affected by the killer's Quirk, he could only confirm that his life status was still passable. He probably had already sent a request for support before the fight.
Later, other professional heroes will come to handle it.
The most urgent problem now is to get to Saten Ruiko.
