The one who split the Sky King in half was, of course, Accelerator.
The minions who were still entangled with the professional heroes immediately noticed the death of their leader.
Their simple minds couldn't comprehend what kind of power had killed the strongest of the Tengu race, but that didn't stop fear and panic from spreading among these creatures.
The minions abandoned their attacks on the fallen professional heroes and fled like startled birds and beasts.
Accelerator, with his crimson eyes slightly narrowed, observed the reactions of these strange creatures and planned to keep a few live specimens for research.
Judging by the behavior of the Sky King and his minions, they were more like a beastly "tribe" rather than a "family" of individuals with the same Quirk.
Hawks, who had taken the full force of the Sky King's sonic attack at close range, could no longer suppress his injuries.
The enemy had been killed by Accelerator, and the psychological impact of the sonic attack was gradually fading.
Blood continuously flowed from Hawks' ears, and his internal organs, damaged by the sonic frequency attack, were in various states of rupture. This was proof that the Sky King's ultimate move had penetrated the defense of his hero suit.
He began to cough up blood violently.
Accelerator quickly came to his side, placing a hand on Hawks' shoulder.
Using vector sensing through blood and bioelectric currents, he began to assess Hawks' injuries.
Accelerator's eyebrows furrowed slightly; the situation didn't look good.
The healing that vector manipulation could provide was limited, and even he couldn't use his abilities to repair severely damaged internal organs.
Hawks urgently needed more precise and effective treatment.
Accelerator connected to the command channel for this operation and said,
"This is the first team's operative, codename 'Accelerator.'"
"Coordinates X1896, Y1762."
"Please quickly dispatch professional heroes with emergency or healing Quirks for support."
"The target has been eliminated, but the condition of the other heroes is not optimistic."
A clear and standard female voice responded from the other side.
"Command has received your report. The nearest reinforcements will arrive in five minutes."
"Please stay in place and wait for reinforcements. If there is still danger at your location, please inform us of the coordinates in real-time."
After ending the call, Hawks looked at Accelerator with a dazed expression and said intermittently,
"Sorry..."
"Almost lost... Even though I'm the senior... I'm really sorry..."
Accelerator calmly shook his head at the dedicated professional hero and gestured for Hawks to stop talking.
"There's nothing to apologize for. We've achieved our goal."
In fact, he wasn't as composed as he appeared.
---
In this area of the forest, many professional heroes from the team were still curled up on the ground. Based on Accelerator's estimation of the intensity of the Sky King's sonic frequency attack, these heroes wouldn't suffer more severe injuries than the primary target, Hawks.
Of course, there could be exceptions where some professional heroes with mutated organs might be particularly sensitive to this kind of attack.
Accelerator was worried about this very small possibility.
Unfortunately, he had to use his ability to maintain Hawks' injuries and had no extra energy to check on the other heroes one by one.
Fortunately, the reinforcements from other professional heroes arrived in time.
This way of leaving the choice to others and the time consumed made Accelerator feel very uncomfortable.
He couldn't pinpoint exactly what was bothering him at the moment.
With the arrival of the No. 3 professional hero Best Jeanist leading the second team and the professional heroes with healing-type Quirks rushing over, the lives of the first team's members were basically saved.
Best Jeanist and Accelerator watched as the ambulances took away all the members of the first team.
Best Jeanist, still a bit worried about his condition, comforted him slowly.
"Don't worry too much, these things are unavoidable."
"Everyone had this awareness when they became professional heroes."
Accelerator didn't speak; he was still thinking about the performance of the Sky King and the Quirk users.
Best Jeanist didn't stop the conversation because of his coldness, instead, he said.
"Long time no see, Accelerator-kun."
"I didn't expect you to become such an outstanding hero."
Accelerator replied indifferently.
"I'm not a hero."
"And I don't think we know each other, right?"
The Best Jeanist thought he was still blaming himself for the battle with the Sky King and didn't mind the words, continuing to persuade him.
"We, the top heroes, have always been very interested in you, but Endeavor never gave us your time."
"So, are you interested in interning at my agency for a while?"
"Unexpectedly, you can learn a lot of knowledge related to professional heroes."
Best Jeanist, who had known Accelerator since he was a black household, had not given up on the idea of guiding him even after a whole year.
However, Accelerator would not accept such a strange invitation.
"Sorry, I don't have the time or the intention for now."
Out of respect for the personality and social contribution of this top hero, he chose a relatively polite way to refuse the invitation of No. 3 Best Jeanist.
Just as Best Jeanist wanted to continue the awkward conversation, the encrypted voice channel built into Accelerator's battle suit automatically connected.
"Accelerator-kun! Can you hear me?"
A panicked and trembling female voice came from inside, undoubtedly Todoroki Shoto's voice.
"Yes, what happened at the forest training camp?"
Hearing Accelerator's voice, Todoroki felt a bit relieved and continued.
"The [League of Villains] attacked everyone at the forest training camp."
"We learned from the enemies that their goal seems to be to take Midoriya and Bakugo."
"They have now fallen into the hands of the enemies, and all communication devices, except mine, including those of the homeroom teacher and Vlad-sensei, have been disabled."
"So I want to ask you to contact the school and other professional heroes for reinforcements!"
Accelerator didn't notice his face darkening, but Best Jeanist did and hurriedly asked.
"What happened? Is there a problem with the ambulance?"
"Or did something else happen?"
