Chapter 327: Danger
Chaos.
This word might not be enough to describe the current situation of this country.
Anxiety. Fear. Terror. Doubt. Distrust.
All negative emotions, which were suppressed, exploded, and no one could stop them anymore.
Those who thought their peace was taken for granted blamed the heroes for their incompetence.
Those who were villains did as they pleased.
As for the government, they were all putting the blame on the heroes since if the people lost their trust in the country; then it would be really over, so while it was quite unfair for the heroes, this was the only thing they could do.
As for the heroes? They were blamed and tortured socially. Everyone rejected them, causing many heroes to retire.
While this action caused panic since if a hero retired, then who would protect them? Yet their distrust and fear blinded their judgment and made them unable to make a proper decision.
Yet, could they be blamed?
What had happened a few days ago was still vivid in their minds.
Everything crumbled that day.
The villains aside, the people felt disillusioned by the heroes, especially by the number one and number two heroes.
Hawk, who was known as the fastest hero and could save anyone faster than anyone, was worshipped, and many people thought he was a great hero, yet who would expect that he was a killer? Whether it was a hero, villain, or many others who were killed by him. Even though some people knew that the ones that he killed were all people who tried to break this society, it didn't stop them from feeling fear toward him.
If he could kill others, then shouldn't he also be able to kill them?
More importantly, his parents were also criminals.
With his origin, no one could save Hawk anymore, and the media kept pressing him, making him nothing but a mere murderer.
Hawk also didn't say anything. No, he couldn't say anything since he was hurt in the hospital, and he also waited for someone.
That someone was Endeavour, the current number one hero.
Compared to Hawk, Endeavour's situation was much worse.
No, his career might be over, especially when the truth about his family was exposed.
Yet, it was a normal thing, especially when Dabi, who was the executive of the Paranormal Liberation Front and also a villain, killed so many people; his identity was Endeavour's son.
When people knew this, nothing could stop them anymore, and they wanted to ask Endeavour, asking him about the truth. Honestly, right now, they were scared and hoped that everything was just a dream. Unfortunately...
Yet, knowing this fact, all the defense and persona on Endeavour's heart crumbled. His first son, who he thought passed away, lived, yet even if he was alive, his identity was a criminal.
Endeavour thought that he was a failure. Watching the people at the hospital entrance, he could do nothing except cry and lament, thinking that he was a failure. As the number one hero, he knew that he shouldn't do this, but before he was a hero, he was a man. Even if his mind was strong, he still had a limit.
Yet, when he didn't know what to do with his family, including his wife, who had been avoiding him for so many years.
It was the first time for the Todoroki family to have such a family meeting, yet they knew that they couldn't let Endeavour face this situation alone.
However, this was only a small crisis compared to what the villains had done to this country.
For one thing, the country... no, the world had a fear of power from the Paranormal Liberation Front.
The executives of this organization were powerful, and they had enough power to decimate a city or two easily. They might not be as intimidating as All-For-One, Shigaraki, or Hokusai, but all of them were formidable.
More importantly, the number of people who entered this organization kept increasing, and no one could stop it.
However, this wasn't the end, especially when this organization had a group of Nomus. Those Nomus weren't weak, and they were all enough to handle All-Might, or even Endeavour easily. Facing such a creature, many people had a headache.
Yet, they were nothing compared to All-For-One and Shigaraki.
All-For-One, the previous demon king, had the power to steal a Quirk, enhancing his power even more and making him one of the strongest people in the world.
Meanwhile, Shigaraki's Quirk, the rot, was able to affect a large area, and anyone who happened in that area, without a doubt, would rot and crumble before disappearing into ashes.
Yet, their danger was pale compared to Hokusai.
Yes, Hokusai.
When the world learned what Hokusai did, they were trembling in fear since his power was definitely inhuman.
For All-For-One to have such a subordinate made every leader in this world tremble in terror.
Hokusai had the ability to turn his drawing into a reality. If it was only a copy of All-Might, no one thought much since a single All-Might, even at his peak, could do nothing against the power of a country, yet what about a hydrogen bomb?
A hydrogen bomb was enough to raze the entire city, leaving nothing remaining.
Yet, Hokusai was able to create two of them in a day. No one was sure whether it was his limit or not, but when a country needed several billion to create a hydrogen bomb, he could create it with a mere of his building.
Fortunately, Mineta was around, so the hydrogen bomb didn't destroy a city and kill everyone.
Yet, the problem was the other country didn't have Mineta!
Still, what made them feel even dizzier was how Hokusai was able to create Kurogiri.
With the ability to create hydrogen bombs and also the ability to teleport, no one dared to bet their lives.
Even some weak countries also tried to please All-For-One, hoping the Demon Lord would become the patron of their countries.
While many condemned their actions, especially when many heroes lost their lives in the previous war, no one could truly blame them since the power of All-For-One, Shigaraki, and Hokusai was too powerful!
No matter how strong a country was, as long as they were bombed by hydrogen bombs several times, it could only give up.
As of now, those strong countries still have a hard time how to face this situation.
Should they follow the trend like the weak countries?
Or should they insist on their justice and believe that the Paranormal Liberation Front was evil?
Many insisted on following the latter, yet what would they do if they were bombed by a hydrogen bomb?
In the end, no one helped Japan, and many took the attitude of watching and waiting since it wouldn't be too late to decide when everything was over. Yet, a hero from a certain country still thought she needed to do something and bring down this evil.
Still, for this country, they thought that this country might be over since no one really could do anything against the combination of All-For-One, Shigaraki, and Hokusai.
Especially when Mineta hadn't woken up until now.
