To evade Accelerator's search, Dabi and Twice adopted a strategy of scattering and running.
Dabi finally retreated to an abandoned building located in the seventh block. The ruins of these buildings were the lucky ones that were relatively intact in the "Miracle Event".
Generally speaking, this place is very safe.
The people who originally lived here have all been relocated to other areas, and there are no residential houses around, and no one will spend the night in such a shocking place at first glance, even if they are down and out, they will not stay here.
The boundary line of the nearby block is like the dividing line of two worlds, and the flickering lights in the distance make this place extremely weird and quiet.
But this dark silence can make Dabi feel a moment of tranquility, he looked up at the sky and could even see the faint stars that could not be seen in the usual city.
In these few hours, he was tired of running around. Every time he just arrived at a safe house, his sixth sense kept protesting and let him leave quickly.
Just a few years ago, Dabi relied on this wonderful seventh sense to evade the net of heaven and earth arranged by Endeavor and successfully fell into the darkness of freedom.
Fortunately, his sixth sense has not shown any signs of protest in this area.
It should be safe, Dabi thought so.
I saw him leaning against the wall and panting slightly. It is not an easy task to cross several blocks on foot alone.
However, what echoed in his mind was what Accelerator said, the matter of the hero killer Stain being solved by him.
Dabi knows that the hero killer Stain is a strong man.
But when he used Twice to create a stand-in that was stronger than the body to a certain extent to face that monster, his proud flames became a small flame like a match, and he even had no way to probe the actual strength of the other party bottom line.
Even if his talents are different and his combat talents are equally amazing, he has also experienced many battles wandering on the edge of life and death in these years of falling into darkness.
However, those battles that are either crushed or hard-fought are different from facing that monster.
After witnessing such power, Dabi, who should be full of confidence in the hero killer Stain, was shaken indisputably.
Can humans really compete with such monsters?
It's as stupid as a human being competing with a supersonic fighter for speed.
So, the last thing he held was to survive.
Whether it is a hero or an enemy, only those who survive will have tomorrow and can go further. Dabi is such a person who has survived after crossing countless similar difficulties, and he has the power he has today.
Just then, Dabi heard footsteps.
There is no concealment, and the footsteps show their existence upright.
This sound made Dabi's hair stand up, and Dabi, who was instantly on guard, looked out.
It looks like it has already merged with the darkness around it, making people like Dabi have such an illusion.
It seems that I am not in a safe retreat, but in the mouth of a huge beast.
In the darkness, the white boy looked at him with a twisted smile.
Even the laughter in his voice is as terrifying as it is immersed in the deep darkness.
"How about it, why don't you continue to escape?"
"Do you want to be a fox that pleases the hunter, don't be a pig destined to be killed and eaten! Despicable!"
"Don't spoil my elegance!"
Although he is gradually pushing the criminals into a predicament that ordinary people can hardly imagine, he seems to feel happy from the heart.
Dabi heard the pale boy with a mocking color, where he didn't understand his meaning.
Their whereabouts were mastered by that monster at some point.
How terrifying.
How angry.
Nothing is more annoying to Dabi than being treated as a weak person or a prey to play with.
It's about personal dignity, even a wild dog will jump over the wall when it's in a hurry.
"Even if I die, I will pull you up! Burn in the fire!"
With a roar, Dabi angrily raised his hands, and the deep blue flame emerged again from between his hands. The dazzling blue firelight illuminated the abandoned building, a light that had not been seen here at night for a long time.
And the deep blue high-temperature flame ocean that once burned for more than a hundred meters had no chance to appear again.
Because, Accelerator on the other side also reached out his hand.
The air in the entire seventh block was constantly distorting. Under this manipulation, the raging storm forcibly extinguished the free flame that symbolized Dabi's heart.
But this does not mean the end. In Dabi's shock, it instantly turned into a sharp blade and cut off one of his hands.
Like a flame, hot blood sprayed on the ground, and the surrounding air was stained with some blood.
"——Ahhhh!"
For Dabi's heart-wrenching, painful howl, Accelerator laughed without any mercy.
"That's right! That's right! It's this wailing! It's this pain!"
"This is the best gift I can give to you criminals!"
"This despair is only one-thousandth of the pain when you trample on others' lives."
And the unimaginable pain of amputation constantly hit Dabi's nerves. He gritted his teeth and used all his strength to hold the neatly cut hand in front of the flesh-and-blood wound of the amputated hand with the only remaining hand, trying to roll as if doing so could make him feel a little easier. And those deep blue flames that lost his control naturally dissipated out of thin air.
In fact, during the escape process, Dabi had unconsciously imagined what it would be like to be arrested.
But he never considered that he would face a situation where he was devouring each other in the dark.
The instinct of survival made him stand up again, consuming the physical strength that was already left, and kept running.
Although, Dabi knew that he didn't have much strength left, but he wasn't calm enough to adjust his running rhythm in this situation.
He only had one thought in his mind.
"Get out of that monster's sight and survive!"
But this thought did not last for a few seconds, because the building ruins where he was staying began to shake violently, and the ground under his feet actually cracked directly.
Simply put, it feels like jumping off a building.
However, this floor is not high, only seven or eight meters high.
Dabi forgot the pain of his lost left hand in this process, and wanted to use Quirk to forced landing subconsciously.
His flame Quirk can indeed generate buoyancy by burning to produce heat.
But, in the process of falling.
Dabi's proud flame couldn't burn.
"——Ahhhh!"
The feet first bear the weight of the whole body and the blessing of gravitational potential energy, and they can twist and explode into a brilliant blood flower. You can even see the broken bone spurs, emitting a daunting light in the flesh color.
Nothing is more desperate than witnessing your own fracture while fleeing.
Both mentally and physically, Dabi felt indescribable despair.
But this pain is not over.
The calm footsteps sounded again, in Dabi's view, it was like his own countdown to life.
Accelerator finally came to him and said.
"Don't make such a painful expression, what about those grand words you said in the fourth hospital?"
"Now is not the time to show self-righteousness."
"And if you don't run away, you really will die, you know?"
Accelerator shouted, casually touching Dabi, who was lying on the ground, with his foot.
Although it was such a casual action, Dabi's body made a terrifying sound.
His world began to spin violently, his whole body was rolling in the air like a bamboo dragonfly, and then his face fell on the muddy ground.
This kick is not as simple as it seems on the surface, while giving pain, it also hangs Dabi's life, so that he will not be fatal due to fractures and hand injuries.
If Accelerator really wanted to kill, the moment Dabi's skin was touched by him, the enemy's body would explode instantly.
Accelerator walked over, pulling up Dabi, who was in pain, and said,
"You can choose to tell me, what is the purpose of the so-called League of Villains?"
Enduring the pain, Dabi replied,
"Dream on! I would rather die than betray my comrades!"
"And your behavior is not freedom at all! It's just fighting violence with violence."
"You're just like us, a thug with power!"
Hearing such an answer, Accelerator laughed wildly, as if he was shrouded in darkness.
"Hahaha!"
"Is that so? Is that your answer?"
"Well, I really have to thank you for your compliment."
In Accelerator's eyes, a fanatical red color began to emerge.
His smile changed, splitting to both sides like melting permafrost.
"But I didn't expect that you, a piece of garbage who abandoned your family, would have such awareness in protecting your comrades. I really underestimated you."
"I will sincerely tell you a great piece of news, my comrade Shokuhou Misaki will get what we want from you."
This "great" news made Dabi really panic, and he shouted out loud.
The reason Dabi panicked was not because Accelerator recognized his true identity, but because the comrades who had joined the League of Villains with him were about to be besieged.
"How dare you! How dare you use psychic abilities to search me privately!"
In response to Dabi's question as an enemy, Accelerator spoke even more cheerfully.
"Why wouldn't we dare? You will play a great role, and in the end, all of you will gather in the right place."
"Be happy about it, the so-called hero killer Stain will accompany you first."
"You will be in a new prison, powerless to watch the superhuman society you hate continue."
"I guarantee it."
Dabi, who lost consciousness, was sent to a hospital specially for treating criminals by Accelerator.
Because such a big event had just happened, NO.2 Flame Hero Endeavor was seriously injured and fell into a coma, and All Might had spent a lot of effort to repel a strong enemy, which made the whole city under full martial law.
Soon, top heroes of the top ten level will come to support from nearby cities.
And standing at the door of the hospital is Todoroki Shoto, who is wrapped in bandages.
Seeing Accelerator coming out, she asked tentatively.
"You... didn't kill Dabi, did you?"
Accelerator sneered and replied,
"You're overthinking it, I know better than you where the bottom line of the superhuman society is."
Unlike before, the girl didn't have any extra stress response to his sharp words, but continued to speak.
"Accelerator-kun, you really know everything."
For the girl's unpretentious flattery, Accelerator was a little uncomfortable, he replied,
"Hey, you better speak straight."
"I don't like beating around the bush."
Todoroki-kun rolled her hair with the hand that was not bandaged, and said with a blush,
"Thank you, Accelerator."
"You saved me and my family again, and many people in the fourth hospital, I really thank you very much."
"If you hadn't come at that time, the consequences would be unimaginable."
Todoroki-kun rarely thanked sincerely, which made Accelerator a little embarrassed, he awkwardly touched the back of his head with his right hand and said,
"I just did some small things."
"Besides, if I'm not mistaken, Dabi is Endeavor's long-lost eldest son, right?"
Todoroki-kun's face looked a bit difficult, but she still nodded and said,
"From the reaction of my straightforward second brother, it's eight or nine out of ten."
"But thinking about it, it's a great fortune in misfortune that the bastard father didn't recognize him."
"It's ironic to think about it, I never thought that my reunion with my big brother would look like this."
Speaking of the injured Endeavor, Accelerator added.
"How is Endeavor's injury?"
Todoroki-kun sighed and slowly said.
"The injury has stabilized, but I'm afraid it won't recover well so quickly, and there will be a doctor for him soon."
"By the way, Accelerator-kun."
"Hmm?"
She paused for a while, seemed to think again and said.
"Misaki, she told me about your plan."
"I hope you don't blame her, if you want to blame, blame me."
Todoroki-kun originally thought that Accelerator would be unhappy, but he didn't seem to care particularly.
In Accelerator's view, anyway, Todoroki Shoto himself is their natural partner, and the time to choose to inform is decided by Shokuhou herself.
After this incident, he realized what it means to be incapable of doing things.
A person's power is always limited, even if someone can do it infinitely.
That level of power is not yet achievable by Accelerator at this stage.
Accelerator is still a mortal who needs to breathe and eat.
Understanding the weight of the plan, Todoroki-kun continued to say.
"But... your plan is particularly dangerous... especially you..."
She didn't continue to speak, but her meaning was conveyed to Accelerator.
He rarely said seriously.
"Even if I can't save every innocent person, we must make the culprits who caused all this die."
"I just hope you will take it more seriously."
