Chapter 10: Operation S.T.Y. pt. 2

[****]

Alex POV

Location: Shie Hassaikai compound, Nagano, Japan.

Date: April 15, 2214

Time: 10:50 p.m.

As soon as we got to the bottom of the steps, the path split three ways. With a wave of my hand, two glyphs appeared in front of me. Out of the glyphs, two humanoid creatures came out.

The first was a tall woman with long, thick, and wavy white hair with a cowlick sticking out at the top. The woman wore a white jacket that bares her midriff, with short, puffy sleeves with white cuffs that feature two light blue buttons. Underneath this, she wears a light white low-cut crop top with a light blue emblem on the left breast. She also wore a belt covered by a pleated piece of material reaching from hip to hip around the back of her waist, with the same emblem that was over her breast emblazoned on the right-most pleat. Underneath that is a long, white, asymmetrical piece of material reaching to her knee on the right side, as well as a pair of tight spandex compression shorts that reach her upper thighs. She also wore a pair of knee-high boots and over-the-knee socks, with the right sock pushed down just below the knee. A bandanna is tied around her left knee. An infinity scarf is wrapped around her neck, and white fingerless gloves complete her outfit.

The second person was a tall, lean, well built man with hair that spiked backward in a windswept way. He wore an asymmetrical white, long-sleeved, double-breasted stylized high-collared blazer with slit sleeves along with light blue thorn sigils adorned with a light blue crest that lined up on his left shoulder. His suit jacket had a light blue lining atop his white shirt, with light blue thorn sigils atop a white flap attached to the bottom of the left hem and a wilting rose emblem on the back over an emblazoned light blue sigil resembling the curved stems and flower of the deadly nightshade plant. His blazer was half-buttoned, exposing a white shirt with a black line running parallel to his collar under it.

He wore a white mask with light blue, Japanese style, horn-like symbols decorating the front, and two slits on each side, allowing him to see out of the mask.

He wore long white dress pants, white shoes with light soles, and white gloves with light blue sigils resembling the Greek letter Ω (Omega). And around his waist, he wore a white belt with light blue domino marks on it. Finally attached to his hip was a katana in white sheath.

These two were Yang Xiao Long and Adam Taurus. After gaining Weiss's semblance, I tried to gain both of their semblances as well, but I felt something change as I killed them, so I followed Weiss's memories, and I was able to summon the two of them.

"Yang, you follow Toga; Adam, you follow Twice. Help them fight and follow their orders as well." I ordered the expressionless avatars with them nodding before running with Twice and Toga down the right and left hallways.

Now let's do this. I began running down the middle hallway at full speed, using every talent related to it, to make sure I reached my destination as fast as possible.

And… Now, leaping to the side, I dodged the ceiling. "So you're Joi Irinaka, right? It's a pleasure to meet you, but you're the least of my priorities right now." I said dismissively as I continued to run through the halls.

As soon as I finished speaking, the corridor began to twist and change, but I was able to meticulously dodge any attack that was thrown at me.

Releasing a sigh, I began talking aloud. "Really, Irinaka-san, you're just embarrassing yourself here with this pitiful display. Well, it's to be expected from the Yakuza, the weakest group on the world stage." I said condescendingly toward Joi.

Oh yeah, I definitely pissed him off now. I thought in amusement as I saw the walls closing in. Reaching onto my waist, I quickly unsheathed my tantō and activated moonslice, causing my outfit to glow a bright blue as well as the edge of the blade itself before I swung myself in a full circle.

All was silent before the walls around me split in two. "There you are, Joi-san." I said with a smirk, seeing the dumbstruck face of Joi that was sitting in the wall.

With a thought, I activated erasure, causing the walls to cease their movements. Unlike Aizawa, I had no such weakness as blinking or dry eyes with my enhanced body. So I was able to casually walk up to the wall and press my hand against it, separating Joi from the wall and allowing the tall man to fall out of the wall.

Before he could react, I pressed my palm on his back and compressed him into a marble, which I picked up and placed in my pocket dimension.

"One down, two more to go." With a smirk, I placed my tantō back in its sheath and continued making my way down the hallway.

As I continued, I felt a drain on my aura reserves. So they started fighting, huh? Good, they should be done in ten minutes.

I continued to walk for several minutes through the halls, where I spotted my targets. Walking down the halls in a hurry was Kai, who was holding a briefcase in one hand as he dragged Eri along. Beside him, holding two more briefcases, was Hari Kurono, aka Chronostasis.

With my talents, it was easy to fully erase my presence and walk right behind the trio. Reaching forward, I gently touched Eri on her head and placed her inside a marble.

Of course, that grabbed the attention of Kai, who could no longer feel Eri in his hand. His head whirled around, and I allowed him to see me. "Hello, it's not a pleasure to meet you two." I said as I stood up to my full height.

"You! What have you done with Eri!?" He asked with a growl.

"I have her somewhere safe and sound." I said while showing off the marble that now housed Eri. I then made it look like I put it in my pocket, but I put it in my pocket dimension.

"I see then; I'll just have to take her back then!" Kai shouted as he crouched down and placed his hand on the ground, using his quirk to destroy the ground around him, creating spikes out of it that were aimed at me.

With a smile, I simply stood there as I watched the spikes come at me. Snapping my fingers, I materialized a glyph in front of myself, blocking the spikes with ease.

"Did you really think I wouldn't see you?" I asked in amusement as I leaned back to dodge the arrow-shaped hair that tried to stab me.

Looking to the side, I saw Hari, who had moved alongside the spike to try and attack me.

God, I love being lucky. I thought with a smile, seeing the gun in his hand, that he was trying to unjam. Now I can test out my capabilities in a full-on fight!

Summoning a glyph behind me as well as a series of them below and in front of me leading toward Hari. I then threw a chunk of gravity dust inside the glyph behind me, causing it to change from white to black, before I was pushed forward with the glyphs below me, allowing me to skate across them and clear the distance between me and Hari.

Reaching forward, I grabbed his wrist and pulled myself up, kneeing Hari in the face and knocking off his plague mask.

I didn't allow him to respond, as I used my speed from the glyphs to flip over Hari and land on my feet behind him. I then used my momentum to flip Hari over my shoulder, slamming him to the ground with a heavy thud.

"Don't think I forgot about you, Kai." I said gleefully as I turned to see him running toward us. Swiping my hand through the air, several glyphs appeared in the air, and fireballs were shot out toward Kai, who jumped out of the way.

Now to deal with you, Hari. I can't brainwash you to be loyal to me unless I brainwash everyone in the yakuza, since they'll realize I did something to you. And while I could do that, what would be the fun in that? So you'll die here and now. Pulling my tantō out, and with a flourish, I stabbed Hari through the heart. Not finished yet, I pushed my aura into the blade, activating the dust inside and sending electricity into Hari, making him scream for several seconds before going silent. I then placed him in a marble as well.

"Now, Kai, are you ready to die?" I said before the ground began to shake. "It seems my people are almost done with your people. Now it's time for you to take your final breath."

Toga POV

Location: Shie Hassaikai compound, Nagano, Japan.

Date: April 15, 2214

Time: 11:05 p.m.

You really are something else, Alex-kun, taking on the entire yakuza. You might not know, but I know you're controlling me somehow. But I don't mind; after getting a taste of your blood, it ruined me for anyone else. That's why I'll help you, Alex-kun. You promised me a world that would accept me—that you would accept me. So I'll help you build the world you dream of.

Jumping back, I dodged the gunshot from the barrier man and then hopped over the man who was trying to bite me. Looking to the side, I saw that Alex-kun's summon, I think he called it Yang, was fighting that large man as they threw punches at each other as well as dealing with that yellow haired bastard that tried to take my weapon earlier.

"Toga, Twice, finished up; I'm almost done here, so finish up your fights." Alex-kun's voice rang into my ear through the earpiece.

I guess I should end this then! I thought with glee as I began to use my magic. I spread my magical energy like Alex-kun taught me, and immediately I felt the blood in all four of my opponents.

"[Blood magic: Heartbeat Break]"

Immediately, all four of them stopped in their tracks as I reversed the flow of their blood before stopping a second later to not kill them. All four dropped to their knees as they gripped their chests.

Reaching to my waist, I pulled out the purple and gray devices Alex-kun gave me and Twice before we got here and threw them at the four of them.

The devices opened up and split in two, revealing a wire connecting both sides. The wires wrapped around their arms and legs before securing themselves together once again.

"Hey, what the hell! We were having a serious brawl here!" The brawny man yelled out as he struggled with his binding. I ignored him in favor of walking up to Alex-kun's summon.

"You lead me to Alex-kun." The summon nodded her head before turning around and walking away.

Time: 11:05 p.m.

Leaning back, I steadied myself as I tried to fight off the drunk feeling I had ever since I started fighting this group.

Dang it, boss, man, why did you have me doing this? Even with this summon thingy, I'm barely hanging on.

"Hey, you're just going to give up? Without achieving anything, Jin." Alex's voice rang from behind me.

"Huh?" I said in confusion as I saw Alex standing with his arms crossed.

"I asked you, are you just going to give up, Jin, even after everything I told you?" Alex said with a raised eyebrow.

"But these guys are so strong, and I feel like I'm about to collapse." I strained out.

"But Twice, are you really going to not give it your all? Like I told you, I may be a clone of the original me, but that doesn't mean I can't and will not give it my all. I want to protect those close to me, my new family. That's why I'll give it my all, even if I disappear in the end, because I know I'll have saved my friends. So, Jin Bubaigawara, are you just going to leave us behind?"

"No… I want to be helpful to you at least once Al- No, boss, man. That's why I'll give it my all! Right here right now!" I shouted as I stomped my foot forward. "I'll help you because you're my friend, boss man, and Toga-chan, so I'll go one hundred percent!" Stretching my hands forward, I began creating clones of myself as well as clones of Toga and boss man.

"What the hell? Where did this come from!" One of the men shouted before he was engulfed and overwhelmed by the clones of myself and my friends.

"It's like the clone of the boss man said; it doesn't matter if I'm a clone and not the original; I'll help my friends here and now!"

"Come now, mister Overhaul-san~!" I said with a smile before stabbing another dust crystal into his chest, causing him to scream out in pain. "Come on, now you tortured little Eri much worse than right? Even as a heartless bastard, I wouldn't go so far as to kill and hurt an innocent child. So just think of this as karmic punishment." I said with a chuckle as I placed my hand on his chest.

Fighting him was easier than that Hari guy since he was so basic in his use of his quirk, just creating spikes from the ground when there were so many options. And his movements were even easier to predict as he tried to get close and use his quirk on me, but he wasn't made for that, so he just tired himself out trying to get to me.

"Now I wonder what will happen to you if I fuse these crystals into. Would you become an abomination that's unrecognizable, or will you be something greater, I wonder? But don't worry, I'll continue that interesting research you were studying, so don't worry and relax." With a smile on my face, I used overhaul on Kai, effectively getting rid of an arc villain in a single night.

I guess I can put my ultimate gangster talent to good use now.
