Chapter 271

Dark Cloud is the two hundred and seventy-first chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia.

Summary
A moment earlier 30 meters behind the Gunga Mountain Resort frontlines, Tsukuyomi managed to jump out of Fat Gum's body despite the Pro Hero's protest. Chargebolt yells what he is doing and Tsukuyomi responds by saying that Hawks is on the top floor in the building and he could be in trouble. Hearing this, Fat Gum ejects Chargebolt, Shemage, and Mudman from his body and tells them to run the rest of the way before running off to give Tsukuyomi support. Inwardly, he comments on how Tsukuyomi was strong enough to break free of his fat, which was something that had never happened before to him.

In the present, Dark Shadow is covering Hawks' back with Tsukuyomi's cloak while saying that there is nothing left of his wings. Dabi says it is pathetic U.A. High had to drag children into this mess, before pointing to Twice's body laying behind him and revealing that Hawks killed him as he was trying to provide backup to his friends. The revelation shocks Tsukuyomi. Dabi rhetorically asks Tsukuyomi if he came here to save Hawks and says to him that the Pro Hero he looks up to is far dirtier than the Villains present. Hawks tries to speak to Tsukuyomi, albeit weakly, and Tsukuyomi answers Dabi by saying he is concerned for his teacher, only for Dabi to call him thoughtless.

Dabi unleashes a blast of his flames that Tsukuyomi tries to dodge, but because the area was too cramped, his right leg ended up getting burnt. Tsukuyomi also knows that the fire has weakened Dark Shadow, so he decides to escape as fast as possible and get somewhere where Hawks can get treated. Hawks tells Tsukuyomi that Dabi is still talking, and sure enough, Dabi continues his conversation by telling Tsukuyomi to think for once about who really needs salvation, but Tsukuyomi ignores him by listening to Hawks. Hawks realized that Dabi wasn't able to finish him off earlier because he was talking to him, and he is doing it again. He deduces he isn't being cocky and is instead buying himself time
