Chapter 45: NO. 45 - Take Down The Yakuza

[General POV]

"Well, what do we have here?" Kaina muttered as she watched several vehicles enter the surrounding veil.

Souta had told her that the veil would help conceal the chaos from within, but it wouldn't stop anyone from getting inside because he didn't have the time to set up warding curtains. That meant anyone was capable of walking inside and coming upon their operation.

The vehicles all came to a stop outside of the surrounding wall of thick roots. She watched several Yakuza thugs all step out and look up at the massive construct in confusion. One of the men walked up to the wall of roots and raised his hand, summoning a torrent of flames over his palm.

Bang!

Reloading, Kaina watched as everyone began to scramble around in fear and confusion at the sight of their comrade's head being blown to pieces. Without pause, Kaina began to unload bullet after bullet onto the Yakuza. She felt no hesitation or regret at killing them all. Why would she? If they were part of Overhaul's group, then they all stood by and did nothing as the man tortured and experimented on a helpless child.

Bang! Bang! Bang!

With a backflip, Jin avoided a horizontal swipe of a spiked tail one of the Yakuza thugs sent his way. Dashing in, Jin struck a forward kick into the thug's stomach, staggering him. Capitalizing on the opening, Jin spun in place and crashed his foot onto his opponent's temple. Knocking him out cold.

"See, I told you all your training was helping!" Twice-Clone Sukuna said with a grin as he walked away from a small pile of knocked-out or dead thugs.

"You call that training! It was torture!" Jin yelled as they ran down the hall after Himiko. "You had me throw down a jacket just to pick it up for hours! How is that good training?"

"It worked, didn't it? Your parrying skills are on another level."

"...no comment."

Out of nowhere, the hallway Jin and TC Sukuna were in began to warp and spin, sending Jin to the floor while TC Sukuna barely stayed on his feet.

"Looks like Irinaka Jōi finally found us." TC Sukuna said as he looked around the spinning room. "If only I had my CE and techniques, I could have blown this entire hallway away."

"Wh-what do we do then?!"

"It's easy. We just have to find the bastard." TC Sukuna grinned as his eyes scanned the length of the hallway. "Damn, I guess my advanced perception is missing too... We're in a pinch."

"What happened to all that confidence?!"

Blam!

TC Sukuna and Jin rolled out of the way from two large stone pillars that tried to crush them underneath. Jin shot to his feet and sprinted down the hall, only to trip as his surroundings began to twist again. TC Sukuna flipped and weaved away from several more incoming arms as he looked around at his surroundings.

'I may not be the original, but Twice was at least able to implement my sharp eyesight and senses. Where is he? Where is he?!' TC Sukuna thought a while back, flipping away from several falling chunks of concrete. 'I just need to see a glimpse of him!'

"Gah!" Jin grunted as he was sent rolling back after Jōi was able to finally land a strike on him. Ignoring the pain, Jin rolled to the side to dodge a crashing pillar that shattered the ground below. "This isn't good, Sukuna! We need to escape!"

"We can't bring this guy to Mystique or the real me. We have to take him out here and now!" TC Sukuna yelled as he ran up the length of an incoming stone arm. Jin sighed and redoubled his efforts despite the pain in his left thigh.

"Alright, alright!" Jin yelled before he drew out his twin katanas. "Okay then... Maximum effort."

Looking around at all the unconscious bodies, TC Sukuna grunted as he swayed back and forth. His vision was unfocused, and his stomach felt as if it was flipping nonstop. He looked over at his remaining enemy, Deidoro.

The Bullet himself was covered in bruises and blood. It was only thanks to his Quirk, Sloshed, that he was still standing.

"You're a tricky one... even with my Quirk's entire focus on you, you're still standing!" Deidoro yelled from his spot on the ceiling. "Just fall already!"

"Not today!" TC Sukuna said as he fought his dizziness and loss of balance. Dashing toward Deidoro, TC Sukuna sent a punch to the Bullet but ended up missing due to his double vision.

Deidoro laughed and shuffled back from TC Sukuna's range. Grunting in annoyance, TC Sukuna tripped before rushing Deidoro again. Without all his support, all Deidoro could do was run and evade his attacks. Then again, TC Sukuna knew he couldn't afford to get hit again. His body couldn't afford it.

'I just need one opening. Just one!' TC Sukuna thought as he struggled to keep up with Deidoro.

'This guy! No one has ever managed to last this long! Just what is he?!' Deidoro thought as he crawled further back from the pipes he was hanging from. 'I just have to send him another blast of my Qurik! That will-'

Deidoro jerked as the back of his left foot hit a wall from the dead end of the hallway. In his panicked evasion and inhibition, the Bullet failed to notice that he was slowly and carefully being lured into a trap.

"Got you."

TC Sukuna dashed in front of Deidoro and struck.

"Wah!" Deidoro cried out in pain as he was sent crashing down on his left arm, breaking it.

Now free of Deidoro's Quirk, TC Sukuna ripped out one of the ceiling pipes and closed the distance in a flash. Standing over the Bullet, TC Sukuna drove the pointed end of the pipe straight into Deidoro's skull. Panting, TC Sukuna leaned against the wall to catch his breath.

"Damn... doing this without CE is hard as shit."

Bang!

TC Sukuna blinked in confusion as he looked down at the bullet hole over his heart. Just as his body began melting away, he looked up at another member of the Eight Bullets. In the man's hand was a handgun.

"Cheap move, you pussy." TC Sukuna said as his body splattered on the floor.

Nemoto Shin huffed in annoyance before looking down at Deidoro's corpse.

Down the hall behind Shin in a wheelchair was an old comatose man. This man was the old Yakuza leader of the Shei Hassaikai.

After giving his old comrade a somber look, Shin walked off to the comatose man and began wheeling him out of the compound.

"In here?"

Himiko panted as she looked down at the nodding rabbit. Grabbing the doorknob, Himiko carefully opened the door and peered into the large dark room.

Strewn around on the floor were several toys. Noticing they were in pristine condition, Himiko walked into the room and found the large bed in the middle. There, sitting in its center, was a little girl with pale blue hair that reached the small of her back. Reaching up, Himiko removed her mask so as not to scare Eri.

"Eri-chan?" Himiko softly asked as she crouched in front of the bed, causing Eri to flinch. "You're Eri-chan, right?"

"Y-yes," Eri whispered in a soft, scared voice. Hearing the child speak in such a way made Himiko's heart clench in pain. "Are you here to take me to that room?"

"That room? What room?" Himiko asked softly, causing Eri to tremble.

"The room... the room where they c-cut me."

"No, sweetheart." Himiko got on the bed and brought Eri into a soft, warm hug. "I'm not here to do anything like that. No, I'm here to save you. To take you away from here so that they never hurt you ever again."

"W-what?" Eri whispered in shock as she felt Himiko's soft embrace. Eri's eyes began to tear up as she felt the softness of Himiko's touch. "You... you're here to save me?"

"Mhm! And not just me! All of my friends are here to save you! We're not leaving this place unless you're with us!" Himiko said with a wide smile as she picked up the girl.

"Hey you... put her back."

Himiko and Eri spun to the door to see Kai and Hari standing at the entrance of the door. With a glare, Kai slowly began to remove his right glove.

Himiko glared at the two men and quickly placed Eri behind her defensively. Sliding her hand into her thigh holster, Himiko grabbed a small black ball that was glowing with cursed energy. Eri looked down and watched as Himiko snapped the ball in two.

"Put Eri back right now," Kai said in a low voice as he began walking toward Himiko with his hand raised.

Suddenly, several muffled explosions began to shake the compound. This caused Kai and Hari to look around in suspicion.

"Did they plant bombs all over the compound?!" Hari yelled as everything rumbled around them, causing the ceiling to crack and the walls to shatter.

"No." Kai hissed before he zeroed in on the direction of the noise was coming from. "Something is coming."

With each new explosion, the explosions grew louder and louder before they were ear-shattering. Himiko grinned and brought Eri down before covering her with her body.

CRACK!

[Shimizu Souta POV]

Shooting out of the concrete wall, I quickly took in my surroundings and found Himiko holding Eri protectively. Sitting on the ground beside her was a small shattered ball.

The ball itself was something I created with my Construction technique. Within the ball was a hollow space I used to store some of my CE. Unfortunately, the stored CE could only last 10 hours before they needed to be refilled. Upon breaking one of them, the stored CE would burst out into a pulse I would be able to sense within a set distance. I had given Jin and Himiko each one of these balls in case either of them got into a life-or-death situation or if they ran into Overhaul during this mission.

Looking to the right, I laid my eyes on Overhaul and Chronostasis.

"There you are, you germaphobic Bastard!" I yelled as I rushed them both.

"It's you!" Overhaul hissed as he tried to reach down to the floor. Beside him, Chronostasis pulled back his hood to reveal his hair.

Just before they could launch their attacks, I raised my hand up and shot off several hundred small compact balls of fire with incredible speed to the point they resembled bullets. Acting quickly, both Overhaul and Chronostasis jumped back behind the door frame as my fire bullets collided through the walls.

[+15 SP]

[+15 SP]

"Go! Get Eri out of here!" I told Himiko as I pointed to the large hole I had created with my explosive entrance. Not needing to be told twice, Himiko nodded and lifted Eri into her arms. Eri looked at me in wonder before she was whisked away.

[+25 SP]

Moving on instinct, I leaped back as several spikes shot out from the floor in an attempt to skewer me. Not stopping there, the hole-riddled wall in front of me rippled, and dozens of large concrete pillars launched toward me. Swiping my hands in front of me, I instantly created a thick shield made of wood and roots from below. A loud explosion of dust, wood, and stone flew in front of me as my defense took on Overahul's attack.

"I can't lose sight of them," I muttered and leaped out of the large hole Himiko left a few seconds ago.

As I turned the corner, I skidded to a stop just as Chronostasis was about to rush past me. He slammed his feet into the ground, halting his momentum to avoid getting any closer. But I was already charging forward with my right arm raised.

Wham!

My knuckles crashed through his plague mask and shattered it into pieces, sending shards into his skin and slicing his left eye. The man grunted in pain before I vanished from his sight. He was momentarily confused before he looked down to see my body low to the ground.

With a wet smack, Chronostasis's head snapped to the right as I landed a powerful Manji kick into the side of his head. The man flew across the hallway and crashed into the wall.

Off in the back, Overhaul growled, seeing his right-hand man being dispatched so quickly.

"Sukuna..." He muttered with rage. "Why are you after Eri?"

I pulled off my hood and gave him a glare. "I'm here to save her."

"Save her?" Overhaul repeated with a stupefied voice. "Since when does the Demon God of the Underworld save people? Have you decided to turn a new leaf and become one of those pathetic heroes?"

"Nah. I'm no hero. Besides, I'm pretty sure real heroes wouldn't slaughter all of your men one by one. Or am I wrong?"

Hearing that, Overhaul didn't seem fazed by the revelation that his Bullets and henchmen were all either dead or not. "It matters not if my men are dead or alive. What matters is that I get Eri back... Bring her to me, and I'll let you and all of your partners live to fight another day."

"You make it sound as if you already won." I popped my neck and looked at him as if he were stupid. "Look around you, Overhaul. You've lost. Your compound is in pieces, and all your men are scattered or dead. There's no version of this where you come out on top."

The young Yakuza boss looked over at the knocked out or possibly dead Chronostasis with an unfocused look. Closing his eyes, Overhaul took a deep breath before he pulled out a grey gun with a green vial on top from out of his jacket.

"Thats!-"

My eyes widened at the sight of the Trigger drug in Overhaul's hand.

Throughout my time as Sukuna, I had scarcely run into criminals who used the trigger drug in order to fight me. While the drug may have given them a significant power boost, it still wasn't enough for them to defeat me.

However, in the hands of a man with an already super-powerful Quirk. The Trigger drug could bolster his already broken abilities to an unimaginable level.

Not willing to risk it, I moved in to stop the man. Unfortunately, he slapped his hand on the wall beside him and sent dozens of spikes towards me.

If Chisaki, of all people, takes that drug, who knows what it could do to his quirk?!

"I didn't want to do this... but I can't risk losing Eri. Not when I'm so close to perfecting the vaccine that will rid the world of this filth known as Quirks!" Overhaul said before stabbing the gun into the side of his neck. With a pull of the trigger, he injected himself with the drug. "I won't be stopped... I won't stop before I rid this entire world of Quirks!"

I raised my arms in front of me and pumped as much CE to reinforce my body as I could.

In a flash, everything around me shattered and exploded.
