----------

Isn't Itadori's Quirk the type that often skirts the darkness and summons living beings?

Compared to Tokoyami's "Shadow" Quirk, its strength and speed are superior.

But it seems just a bit inferior.

Aside from this, does he have any other abilities?

"What an incredible Quirk. Apart from that adult, I've never felt such a dangerous aura."

Kurogiri spread his body to form a gate, preparing to teleport Shigaraki Tomura and Nomu away together.

"Sorry, we'll retreat for now..."

"The World!!!"

Just as Kurogiri was about to activate his Quirk, a familiar cry that sent chills down their spines rang out.

Only Itadori himself and [The World] could see it.

Time came to a standstill, turning everything into a chaotic blur of colors.

Kurogiri remained frozen, holding the gate open, but like everyone else, he was completely still.

"It's only two seconds for now. We've just awakened, so getting two seconds is pretty decent, right? After all, when Dio just awakened, he could only manage one second." Itadori and [The World] walked past All Might, who was also motionless, and stood in front of Kurogiri, smirking.

"It feels strange to say 'two seconds' in a world where time is stopped, but, well, it's two seconds."

"I don't have any real grudge against you two, but this guy, Nomu, hurt me badly just now. I don't intend to let him off easily."

The next moment, [The World] moved up from beside Itadori and punched both Kurogiri and Shigaraki Tomura squarely in the stomach.

The two tilted slightly within the frozen time, but they didn't react as if hit normally.

After delivering a punch to each of them, Itadori turned and walked back behind All Might, facing away from the villains with a sneer, "Time resumes."

Kurogiri and Shigaraki Tomura instantly felt sharp pains in their stomachs.

Then, they were sent flying across the area.

Though the force wasn't as powerful as Nomu's previous attacks, it was enough to send them crashing into a rock formation on the other side of the lake.

With Kurogiri incapacitated, they lost their means of escape.

The scene was familiar, but it shocked Midoriya and the others no less than the previous instances.

"What just happened? Did they get knocked away again? How is this possible?!" Momo stammered, as if in a dream, but knowing it was reality—this was the third time!

"No, that attack wasn't aimed at Nomu!" Midoriya shouted.

Nomu hadn't turned around like before, nor made any move to attack.

How did Kurogiri and Shigaraki Tomura get knocked back?

All Might, stunned at witnessing this ability for the first time, looked back at Itadori with disbelief.

"Well, let's finish this freak right now. If [The World] wasn't enough, I'll take care of him myself."

Itadori muttered to himself in frustration, "Tsk, if only ONE.FOR.ALL was mine..."

"Thank you, Itadori!" All Might shouted, pounding his fists together with excitement before charging at Nomu.

Without the support of Shigaraki Tomura and Kurogiri, Nomu was just a brute weapon, lacking intelligence.

Even with a Quirk designed to counter All Might, he quickly lost ground under All Might's relentless attacks.

"Villains, you may have heard of this saying?"

All Might gathered all his strength into his right fist, blood seeping from his mouth as he launched his final strike into Nomu's abdomen.

"To the end of the line!!"

"Plus Ultra—!!!!"

Boom!!!!

It's hard to fathom the strength behind All Might's punch. The friction from his fist even ignited sparks in the air.

This is why, despite being able to toy with Nomu, Itadori left the final blow to All Might.

The intense wind pressure and shockwave spread through the entire training area, leaving Tokoyami and Shoji in shock.

"What just happened?!" Mineta shouted, almost in tears.

"An overwhelming victory…" Kirishima's face glowed with admiration, his respect for All Might unwavering.

Even after witnessing Itadori and [The World]'s incredible abilities, everyone was in awe of All Might's raw power.

For them, visible power felt more imposing than invisible power.

Among all, only Midoriya looked pensive and worried, whispering to himself.

"Cough!"

All Might stumbled and nearly collapsed.

But an arm caught his waist, preventing him from falling.

"Huh?"

All Might turned in surprise. It was [The World]!

"Getting weaker, aren't you?" Itadori whispered in his ear.

"No, it's just… time's running out."

All Might opened his mouth, but no words came out—just a wry smile.

"The two leaders got away." Todoroki announced grimly, "In the end, we couldn't find out their true identities."

"That was so passionate, All Might!" Inasa praised, giving a thumbs-up. Then he turned to Itadori, "And what was that Quirk? Amazing!"

"It seems we aren't needed here anymore."

The familiar voices of the other heroes reached them from the main entrance: Mike, Midnight, Vlad, and a dozen other pros, including Principal Nezu, had finally arrived.

But they were too late.

"Sorry, everyone! Tenya Iida of Class 1A reporting back!" Iida saluted.

"You're late, Four-Eyes!" Bakugo retorted.

"It's about time."

Principal Nezu observed All Might's state and exchanged a knowing glance with Vlad.

Vlad approached Itadori, thanking him, "Thank you for your hard work. I'll take care of All Might from here."

Itadori simply nodded as [The World] gently transferred All Might to Vlad's care before returning to his side.

"Itadori, are you okay?" Momo hurried over, her eyes on the wounds covering his body.

Though [The World] had awakened, the injuries from his fight with Nomu remained.

"Feeling alive?" Itadori replied with a barely restrained excitement, "It's like finally seeing light after endless darkness!"

As his classmates recalled his overwhelming abilities, a chill ran through them. They imagined themselves in the place of Shigaraki Tomura or Kurogiri under such an attack and shuddered.

"All Might, please go to the medical room." Principal Nezu said to him, now supported by Vlad.

"Wait." All Might said weakly, signaling Vlad to stop. He used his remaining strength to look at Itadori.

Everyone watched, holding their breaths.

"Itadori... don't lose yourself to the power." All Might panted.

Itadori, still thrilled, smiled slightly.

"Don't worry, from now on, I'll be the one controlling him—not the other way around."

All Might forced a smile. It sounded strange, but he was reassured.
