Although the 'declaration' was only issued a few hours ago, the entire country has undergone a huge change because of it, and the first to bear the brunt of this were the numerous 'Pro Heroes'.
All the pro heroes who participated in the previous 'encirclement and suppression' could guess one thing ——— the association must have received some news before All Might was defeated, otherwise it would have been impossible to set up such a complete alert system in advance.
And since even the participating pro heroes could see this, how could those politicians who are constantly rolling around in conspiracies and schemes not have noticed?
The first wave of counterattacks was resolved with the efforts of the Hero Association, and the second wave of counterattacks disappeared without a trace under Lancer iron-blooded sanctions. Then the whole country fell into a calm before the storm, but everyone knew that those guys who were temporarily suppressed would not give up, and everyone was waiting for the third wave of counterattacks.
And in this rare gap, all the pro heroes who participated in the 'Association's offensive and defensive battle', including All Might, were required to go to a designated location for questioning. No one had any objection to this, or rather, they were not qualified to object, after all, they were 'pro heroes' in the end, just civilians.
"Mr. All Might, because the situation is special, let's skip the unnecessary pleasantries and get to the point!"
"It should be so."
"Okay, then, about that 'ghost', is his strength really greater than yours?"
"Yes, at least with my current strength, I cannot guarantee that I can defeat him."
"Okay, then the second question, is it true that there are rumors that your strength has declined due to a hidden injury you suffered in the past?"
When he said this, All Might could clearly feel that the person in front of him was a little emotionally unstable, but after a moment of hesitation, All Might still nodded. This was something he and Lancer had agreed upon earlier.
"Yes, in fact, I was already injured in the 'final battle' back then, and the injury has been getting worse over the years."
If All Might's defeat only made everyone feel disappointed, then when All Might personally admitted that his injury had worsened, everyone was completely at a loss, after all, everyone believed that even if All Might lost this time, he would definitely be able to stand up again, because he is the 'Symbol of Peace'! He is undefeated! But...
Looking at the young man in front of him who was a little out of control, All Might patted his shoulder reassuringly.
"The future belongs to everyone, and I believe that young people, including you, will one day take over the 'Banner of Peace' from me, and... although the wound is still getting worse, I will still fulfill my..."
All Might's words were not finished, and the young man in front of him could no longer control his emotions, and tears flowed down almost uncontrollably.
Until the emotionally unstable clerk was taken away by his colleague, he kept saying one thing ——————
"Mr. All Might... I'm sorry!"
As for what the other party was apologizing for? In fact, it was already obvious, it was nothing more than the fact that All Might was already injured, but they had still been relying on him, and even now, they were no exception.
Although there was a small accident here with All Might, everything was normal in the end, and the government soon received a 'report'.
As for whether this report will work? That's a matter of opinion.
——————
Endeavor was one of the first to complete the 'report', and he didn't go home but returned directly to his agency. Not surprisingly, there were almost no people in the agency at this time, after all, with Lancer explosive statement earlier, the whole country was in shock.
The police were all on the streets, and the licensed pro heroes were also the same, but because of this, some people were left in the agency, for example ———— Shoto Todoroki.
"President."
When Endeavor heard his son's title, he felt his heart tremble violently, but then he shook his head.
"Shoto, come to my office."
Shoto Todoroki didn't know why that man was looking for him, but he still followed the other party into the office, after all, his current identity was the other party's 'employee'.
He hated the other party, but as a 'pro hero reserve', it was normal to abide by the rules of the agency.
But what surprised him was that after the two of them entered the office, the other party didn't speak directly as he usually would, but instead motioned for him to sit on the other side of the desk.
This made Shoto Todoroki clearly feel that something was not right.
"Shoto... stay in the agency for a while."
"Yes!"
"And your 'teacher'... don't go looking for him anymore."
"!!!"
As soon as Endeavor finished speaking, Shoto Todoroki's eyes widened, and the cool look he had deliberately maintained on his face instantly disappeared, replaced by an unconcealable anger.
"I refuse!!"
Although the person Shoto Todoroki hated the most was Endeavor, as his son, he did inherit some things from him, such as the sparks that flashed on his forehead when he lost control of his emotions.
And when Endeavor saw Shoto Todoroki's angry expression, his mood became extremely complicated, but there was no expression on his face.
"You probably don't know what your 'teacher's' identity is, do you?"
"What?"
Endeavor's calmness gave Shoto Todoroki a bad premonition. He had long known that Lancer background was probably not clean, otherwise he wouldn't be staying at Yaoyorozu's house, but there was still no change on his face, because he believed in his teacher.
Lancer always did some nonsensical things, and even forced him, a minor, to drink, but the气质 he inadvertently revealed made him feel extremely familiar, as if he were a trustworthy senior, so even though Endeavor was equally confident at this moment, he was not shaken in the slightest.
But what he didn't know was that the calmer he was, the worse Endeavor's mood became, after all, the feeling that his son was more willing to believe an 'outsider' than himself was really a mixed bag... even if he knew the reason...
"Hoo~"
He took a deep breath to make his voice sound as calm as possible before he opened his eyes.
"Your teacher is that 'ghost'. I don't think I need to say anything more. You should have learned something about his current situation from TV."
"Teacher? Ghost?! Impossible! Teacher he..."
"Bang~!"
Shoto Todoroki's words were not finished, and he felt a pain in his neck, and then he saw a gradually blurring figure.
"You need to calm down properly!"
