MHA: GAMER PATH

Chapter 170: World Heroes Mission Arc (1)

~Third POV~

[Nighttime, Otheon, Humarise Sanctuary, Europe]

In the main sanctuary of the Humarise, the leader, Flect Turn, addresses all his followers gathered there, asking in a serious tone, "Why were superhuman powers, the meta-abilities so casually known as Quirks, forced upon our kind? Why was the first metahuman, the shining baby, born among us? These Quirks bring nothing but tragedy. They are not a blessing in our world, but the beginning of its end."

Flect Turn continues to speak about how, ever since the appearance of Quirks, they will eventually become so powerful they will lead to the extinction of humanity, as the Quirk Singularity Doomsday Theory assures, raising said book in a serious tone, "… but the beginning of its end. It is foretold in the Quirk Doomsday Theory. As generations pass, powers mix and evolve. Eventually, none will be able to control their abilities. In this hour of need, 80% of humanity is sick with Quirks. How many of the remaining pure humans will have relations with Quirk holders? Spawning even more who are cursed with this blight. Our extinction is nigh at hand."

Halting for a moment, he spreads his arms out into the air as he continues speaking in a serious tone, "We, Humarise, must act. Even if it means dying the earth red with blood, that will simply be our righteous burden to bear. For humanity's salvation."

Due to the religious nature of the organization, members of Humarise adopted as clothing a brownish frock and a white monastic scapular with a cowl, on which the emblem of Humarise is embroidered. Humarise members also cover their faces with masks.

Humarise's emblem is a six-pointed star or roundel, which is split into two halves, the left side being reddish and the right side dark brown. The right side is also fragmented as they all hail, yelling, "For humanity's salvation! For humanity's salvation!! For humanity's salvation!!!"

To ensure the salvation of the pure humans, those who are Quirkless, Flect says Humarise must act, even if that means the deaths of millions of people. But while this sermon is taking place, deep in a secret underground cavern facility, a lone defector, Alan Kay, flees from the terrorist organization.

Flect Turn raises a small dagger-like device in his hand as he says, getting the cultist members' attention in a serious tone, "Now then. Let us begin!"

*BEEP*

Flect Turn demonstrates their resolve by detonating one of the Trigger Bombs in a major city, releasing a large amount of green gas that quickly covers the entire city while the terrified citizens try to escape.

*Click*

A large screen is now shown for the cultists of Humarise to see. They all cheer of the atrocities they've committed.

The gas is made from a chemically enhanced substance known as Ideo Trigger, which causes the Quirks of anyone who breathes and inhales it to go berserk and lose control of their super-empowered Quirks that are highly toxic to the users themselves and destructive due to the enhancing properties of the chemicals.

Both civilians and Heroes were unable to control their chemically enhanced powers, being consumed by their overpowered Quirks and causing great destruction throughout the city, increasing the death toll.

The only ones who survive this tragedy are a few Quirkless individuals, completely shocked by the death and devastation they have just witnessed. The Humarise agents approach these terrified survivors to congratulate them for being granted salvation.

Sometime after the devastation, Humarise broadcast to the world that they were the ones responsible for the bombing. In response to the act of terrorism, the World Heroes Association mobilizes the largest anti-terror joint task force made up of top Heroes from all over the globe, with Nezu as the advisor…

[Nighttime, Otheon, Airplane, Humarise Branches]

*Swooosh*

Flying across the Otheon airspace was an airplane issued by the World Heroes Association, accompanied by multiple heroes. While each team of heroes goes to their designated targets, the director of the association explains the situation as well as the main goals of the operation in a serious tone: "The group claiming responsibility for the recent attack is known as Humarise. The radical sect was founded by Flect Turn and seeks to save humanity from the so-called Quirk Doomsday Theory."

*Click*

Inside the airplane carrying heroes, Ren saw the video change, giving details of the chemical gas substance in a serious tone, "The attack used a Quirk-activating substance known as Ideo Trigger that was spread through the streets via devices we're dubbing Trigger Bombs. The mission of the Hero team we've gathered is to search the 25 known Humarise complexes so that these bombs can be destroyed. Intelligence suggests there's one device at each location. Arrest any Humarise members present and neutralize the payload. Be advised that you should expect heavy resistance. They may detonate the bombs once they realize we're moving. As such, we're not asking local law enforcement to assist. This is the most urgent mission many of you have ever faced. Nezu."

Shifting controls over to Nezu, standing by, he spoke through the video in a serious tone, "Heroes, the success or failure of this task rests on your shoulders. Let's give smiles back to citizens who're frightened by terrorism!"

*Thud*

Everyone from within the airplane Ren was wearing his Black Ranger costume, standing next to All Might along with Nighteye with his group consisting of Mirio, Izuku, Bubble Girl, and Centipeder, along with a few other native heroes of Otheon. The heroes stood at the ready for their World Hero Mission.

Their mission is to simultaneously raid the twenty-five known branches of Humarise in the world, apprehend all its members, including the leaders, and seize the Trigger Bombs. Since the nature of the entire operation is strictly off-book and clandestine, they must refrain from asking for help from local law enforcement.

Various members from Class 1-A and Class 1-B from the U.A. Heroes Course were recruited to boost the number of Heroes being deployed both at home and overseas. The Lurkers recruited their trainees, Shinso, Hanta Sero, Denki Kaminari, and Ibara Shiozaki, to join Salaam in raiding the Humarise branch in Cairo, Egypt.

Ochaco Uraraka, Tsuyu Asui, and Nejire Hado are selected by Ryukyu to raid the Humarise base in Paris, France. Gang Orca assembled a joint operation with Present Mic and Cementoss in Tokyo, Japan, to raid a Humarise forward operating base with the trainees Kyoka Jiro and Mezo Shoji, while Fat Gum and his trainees, Eijiro Kirishima, Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu, and Tamaki Amajiki, will assist with the Japanese operations.

Momo Yaoyorozu and Setsuna Tokage were chosen by Majestic to assist Singapore's top hero, Big Red Dot. Hawks and Fumikage Tokoyami are sent to New York City, United States, with Shishido and his trainees, Mashirao Ojiro, Rikido Sato, Nirengeki Shoda, and Jurota Shishida, to apprehend the American branch.

The Heroes of the Endeavor Agency, including Work-Study trainees Katsuki Bakugo and Shoto Todoroki, join a secret covert black-ops mission to the capital city of Otheon with All Might and Sir Nighteye Agency, where the main headquarters is presumably located and apprehend the leader, Flect Turn.

*CLANK*

The doors to the airplane slowly open, revealing one of the branches of Humarise as Nezu begins to give them commands in a determined tone, "This is it, heroes. Start your missions!"

*Swooosh*

Once the operation begins, the heroes attack Humarises' forward operating bases in Otheon, as the heroes led by Endeavor raid the headquarters via HALO jump. Endeavor himself leads the first team with Clair Voyance to locate the bombs as he says in a serious tone with All Might following next to him, "Team A. No matter what happens, collect the Trigger Bomb before it can be set off!"

The heroes all agreed, "Roger that!"

A second team, in which the trainees are, is charged with apprehending the members and their leader as Izuku spoke to his group in his Armored Deku, "There. Humarise's Otheon Headquarters."

Responding to Izuku teaming together with Ren going down, Todoroki said in a serious tone, "While they handle the weapon, we're to take the facility and capture their leader, Flect. Don't let your guard down, Team B."

Bakugo growls, annoyed, preparing to propel himself forward as he responds, "You would think we forget this?! Shut up!"

*KABOOOM*

Rushing forward, Ren began to follow Bakugo's lead in a serious tone, "Let's get this show on the road!"

*THUD*

The Team B heroes soon landed, rushing towards the entrance of the Humarise Branch as Humarise Members with spears saw the heroes yelling, "Stay back! You won't get past us!!!"

*SMASH*

Smashing through the door and knocking out the thugs, All Might appeared with a grin as he responded, "Your time has come, terrorists! For I am here!"

All Might appeared as he rushed forward with the other heroes in Team B, following his lead, capturing the Humarise Members. Endeavor, seeing this, gives his command as they enter the building in a serious tone, "This is what resistance gets you. Clair. Track down the device!"

On top of a flying Hero, Clair agreed as she used her Quirk [Voyance] by name, "I'm on it. [Voyance]."

Clair uses her Voyance Quirk to find the bombs. Members of the Humarise Members rush forward, as one says, "They're violating our sanctuary!"

*KRACKLE*

However, the Humarise Members are caught in Shoto's ice as he warns his ally, "Bakugo, most of their members are Quirkless! Don't be too rough."

*BOOM*

Propelling himself with explosive power, Bakugo replied, preparing his move in a serious tone, "Yeah, I know. [Stun Grenade]!"

*SHIII*

Momentarily, the Humarise Members were paralyzed from Bakugo's flash attack. Ren follows up, increasing his speed and knocking each one of the Humarise Members with one flick of his wrist, forcing them unconscious.

*Thud*

*Thud*

With all the Pro Heroes working together, they capture the Humarise Members easily, with All Might fighting along. However, Clair speaks with Endeavor through ear communication in a serious tone, "Endeavor, there's something wrong. I can't find the bomb anywhere!"

Hearing this, Endeavor then asked the B Team in a serious tone, "What's that? Where's Flect?"

*BOOOOM*

In another room where Flect was supposed to be, All Might's expression hardened, seeing one inside as he answered in a grim tone, "Endeavor, I just arrived where Flect is, but there's no one inside. Tell everyone to search the premises. He couldn't have gone far!"

Every one of the Pro Heroes began to search for Flect Turn or the Bombs, but there were none in the building. The secondary team is also unsuccessful in locating Flect Turn. They instantly search the entire building but fail to find any of their targets.

The other teams from around the world had also successfully raided the other branches, but much like Otheon's, none were able to discover any trace of the Trigger Bombs. Hawks informs the association's director that none of the captured cultists they interrogated know anything about the whereabouts of the devices, so he assumes that only members of Flect Turn's inner circle know of their existence…

[Nighttime, Otheon, Humarise Sanctuary – Outside Area]

While the Pro Heroes searched for the Humarise Leader and Trigger Bombs, Alan Kay was still on the run, carrying a wrapped package with him, obsessed with delivering it to prevent the destruction of the world as he muttered in a serious tone, "Huff… huff… I have to deliver this. If I don't, the world will be destroyed!"

*Thud*

But Alan soon stopped seeing a mysterious figure before him, alarmed as he growled, glaring at the man showing up, "You…! Are you with the members of Humarise…!!"

Coming out from the shadows, he revealed himself to be a Gentle Criminal as he replied in a calm tone, holding his teacup, "Why, of course not, sir. No. I'm merely here to assist in your rescue by my boss. Where are my manners? I'm known as Gentle Cri – Man. Gentle Man, a Sidekick working under the Pro Hero Power Ranger at your service."

Alan seemed to be relieved as Gentle Man smiled, gaining the chance in a proud tone, 'I will be a hero! I can be more, he says, and with his time teaching me and a little dubious action, I'm a hero with my Hero License. Despite it being given to me, Sir Yuki, I'll work for it to show I'm worthy by becoming your sidekick and proving it!'

Gentle Criminal, reborn as Gentle Man, has become a sidekick alongside La Brava, becoming the first recruit in the Power Ranger's Agency. It'll be worth working for when Gentle Man is given such an important task.
