Moonfish

The battle at the forest training camp had reached its peak.

In the dark night, Yuto held his blade as sword light filled the field.

Yaoyorozu was in immediate danger.

There was no time for him to think.

Yuto swung at extreme speed.

A flash of blade light shot forward.

The blue flying slash was shaped like a crescent moon.

It rushed through the air toward Moonfish.

Whoosh!

The sound cut through the night.

Blue light lit the field.

Boom!

An explosion erupted, and a blue cloud of smoke rose from the ground.

A powerful blue shockwave spread outward from Yuto and stirred up a fierce cyclone.

Leaves spun through the air, trees shook, and birds scattered.

In a single exchange, the blue flying slash shattered hundreds of blades.

Crack. Crack.

The crisp sound rang out.

The blades broke like glass and turned into white dust floating in the air before disappearing.

Everything happened too quickly.

In an instant, Moonfish's hundreds of blades shattered midair.

Everyone froze.

The field went silent.

All eyes turned to Yuto.

Had Yuto arrived?

Yaoyorozu and the others felt complicated emotions rise inside them.

Had the desperate situation suddenly turned around?

Yuto broke the silence first.

"You did well. I'm here now. Leave this to me."

Tears rose in Yaoyorozu's eyes.

It had been too dangerous.

If Yuto had acted one step later, nothing could have saved her.

The villain's teeth could become countless blades, and his attack power was extremely high.

The danger level was high enough that the country had been hunting Moonfish for a long time.

Now he had joined the League of Villains.

Bakugo snorted.

"Damn it, Yuto. Did you take care of the enemies over there?"

Yuto nodded.

"They're done."

Yaoyorozu and the others looked shocked.

How long had that taken?

Yuto had defeated two major criminals in a little over ten minutes.

How could they not be surprised?

Pixie-Bob let out a breath after seeing that Yaoyorozu and the others were safe.

"Moonfish is an extremely dangerous criminal. Leave this to Yuto and me. You all retreat first."

Bakugo roared, "Moonfish is my enemy!"

Yuto's gaze sharpened. His tone left no room for argument.

"Go support Mandalay and the others. Leave this place to us."

"Mandalay is in danger right now. She needs your support."

"After I deal with him, I'll catch up."

He paused and added, "I am not asking you to do this. I am ordering you to complete this mission."

His words hit Bakugo and the others hard.

But Yuto's order could not be argued with.

Emotionally and logically, it was the right choice.

Under Yuto's command, Yaoyorozu, Bakugo, Todoroki, and the others retreated to support Mandalay.

Yaoyorozu looked reluctant, but she made the decision.

"Yuto, be careful."

Bakugo shouted, "Damn it, Yuto. Don't order me around."

Even so, he followed Yuto's order.

Soon, Yaoyorozu, Bakugo, Todoroki, and the others left to rescue Mandalay.

Moonfish hung in the air and watched the whole thing.

Yuto had destroyed hundreds of his blades as if they were nothing.

His body trembled as he growled with twisted excitement.

"Meat. Flesh. So you're Yuto?"

"I finally found you. You're the man who defeated Stain?"

"Good. You're strong. Stain recognized you as a hero."

"In this sinful society, fake heroes are everywhere."

"Let me verify whether you are a real hero."

"In Stain's name, I will defeat you and eat your flesh."

"Don't disappoint me, Yuto."

As soon as he finished, he roared with excitement.

His fighting spirit surged.

Yuto was an opponent worth fighting.

He used Blade-Tooth to create more blades.

"Eight hundred blades!"

"One thousand blades!"

"Two thousand blades!"

"Meat. Flesh!"

"Not enough. I need more blades!"

"Three thousand blades!"

"Four thousand blades!"

His red eyes were already wild with madness.

He gathered all his strength and kept creating blades.

"Go wild! Thousand-Blade Style: Rain of Blades!"

"Yuto, this is the trump card I prepared for you!"

"You have nowhere to run. I will eat your flesh!"

As soon as he finished, his teeth became a weapon of war.

Thousands of blades shot toward Yuto like a storm.

In the blink of an eye, the dense rain of blades covered the field and surrounded Yuto completely.

The sight was terrifying.

Thousands of blades.

A storm of attacks dense enough to tear a person apart.

Pixie-Bob stared in shock.

Her voice trembled.

"Yuto, can you handle this?"
