The Pro Heroes who protected the island are about to retire, so the students will take care of the place, performing duties as real heroes acting like their own "Hero Office", until the arrival of new Pro Heroes.

Because Nabu Island is quite isolated from the rest of the country, and therefore far from any villain activity, there has been no notable incident since the last thirty years. For this reason, their work on the island basically involve mostly minor deeds. Rikido works as a lifesaver on the beach with several of his classmates. Mezo spots a kid in trouble. Tsuyu dives into the water to help grab him while Rikido rows the boat to save the boy.

Although the entrance is sealed, Rikido manages that no one else is injured.

In response to the act of terrorism, the WHA mobilizes the largest anti-terror joint task force, with Hawks as the leader of their unit. Since the nature of the entire operation is strictly off-books clandestine, they must refrain from asking for help from local law enforcement.

Hawks and his trainee, Fumikage leads an assault on a Humarise forward operating base in New York City, United States with Shishido and his trainees. Despite their successful raid, the heroes have failed to locate the Trigger bombs or their leader. The American team were ordered to be on standby. During the time, Rikido, Mashirao, and Fumikage received news from headquarters saying that Izuku was accused of mass murder by the Otheon government, making him extremely armed and dangerous. They were initially appalled by the information, but none of them refuse to believe that Izuku would do something heinous and voices their opinion in Izuku's innocences in protest against the false claims.

While they are stationed in New York City, the Humarise had publicly broadcasted to the entire world that they have planted the Trigger bombs in over twenty-five countries, one of which where Paris is located, and they will detonate the bombs in two hours to "cleanse" the population of their Quirks. As the result, NYC was locked in a state of anarchy and chaos, so the American team scrambled to quell the hysteria and locate the bombs.

Before the bomb can go off, Izuku, Katsuki, Shoto, and Rody were able to assault the main Humarise headquarters and defuse the bombs worldwide, saving the world from catastrophic destruction, including NYC. Once the crisis has been averted, the team leave the country and return home.

The months go by until it's late March. The Hero Public Safety Commission had uncovered the plans of Tomura Shigaraki and his organization, the Paranormal Liberation Front. They organize a large force of heroes to take the villain organization down. While a team of heroes raid the Jaku General Hospital, where the Nomu are created, another team does the same at Gunga Mountain Villa, the Front's main headquarters.

Rikido is a member of the Villa Backup Team along with some of his classmates and Class 1-B students. Their mission is to provide support to the heroes who raid the Gunga Mountain Villa and prevent villains from escaping.

After Tomura Shigaraki woke up and commanded Gigantomachia to go to him, Heroes try and fail to stop the walking calamity. Kyoka detects the giant and warns her teammates. Likewise, Midnight contacts the students and transmitting them what they have to do to stop the giant. Momo takes the leadership to defeat Gigantomachia and uses her Quirk to create a large number of vials of undiluted sedative, giving one to each student so that at least one can make the giant swallow a vial.

Following Momo's lead, the students set the trap for Gigantomachia. Juzo uses his Quirk to soften up the ground and Momo plant explosives she created in the softened area. They also position several chords covered in Minoru's orbs.

As they planned, Gigantomachia step into the students' trap and he falls to the ground. The strings covered in Minoru's orbs stick to his chin, and while the giant tries to get out, Rikido, along with Class 2-B members Itsuka Kendo and Jurota Shishida, pull with all their might on the ropes, intending to open his mouth wide enough to allow their teammates to throw the sedative inside him. Despite their efforts, Gigantomachia and the members of the League manage to repel the students.

Fortunately, Eijiro manages to throw a vial into Gigantomachia's mouth, and when the giant is about to crush him, Rikido and other students start shooting him with cannons created by Momo, allowing Eijiro to be rescued by Setsuna Tokage. Several heroes led by Majestic arrive to take charge of Gigantomachia now that he has ingested the sedative, because the more he moves the faster it will spread.

Gigantomachia takes on an armored appearance and easily defeats heroes, and continues on his way to Tomura. Before being killed, Majestic uses his Quirk to bring the U.A. students to safety, who can only watch helplessly as the giant devastates everything in his path. After the battle he, along his classmates, finds out that Midnight was killed and the students start grieving over their teacher's body.

Two days later, Minoru, Toru, Hanta, and Rikido see Katsuki wake up from his injuries, and are relieved that he is okay, taking his angry attitude as a sign of wellness. When Katsuki asks how everyone else is doing, they unenthusiastically explain that while most others are conscious, Izuku has shown no sign of waking up, prompting Katsuki to make his way toward Izuku's room. Rikido and Minoru try to stop him, though Katsuki brushes it off and says that their pulling him is killing him faster. Eventually, Katsuki is stopped by Tsuyu, who helps carry him away using her tongue. They notice Hawks and Best Jeanist going to Izuku's room, wanting to ask him about One For All. After the Paranormal Liberation War ended, Rikido returns to Heights Alliance with the rest of Class 1-A and receives a letter from Izuku explaining about his origins of being Quirkless and One For All, so he has to leave to guarantee their safety from All For One.

Tartarus Escapees Arc
A few days after Izuku left U.A., Rikido is seen at a meeting with Class 1-A. He and his classmates deduce that Izuku is now working with Endeavor and his team, as well as with All Might. A few days later, impatient with their response, Class 1-A pushed forward using Endeavor's U.A. Alumni status to confront him and get him to reveal the truth.

Once Principal Nezu gives Class 1-A permission to bring back Izuku to U.A, Rikido joins with his class to search for Izuku while at the same time, apprehending any prison escapees along the way. After a month of trailing in Izuku's whereabouts, Class 1-A finally arrived on the scene to defeat the villain Dictator. When Izuku refuses to yield, he demands everyone to get out of his way, which means they'll have to fight.

As the fight goes on, Izuku tells them that his presence endangers everyone and fears of All For One killing them to break him, which is why he has to stay away from them. When he starts to break out of Mashirao's tail grip, Fumikage appears and uses Dark Shadow to knock him into a building. Rikido rescues Kyoka and Mashirao, reacting to Izuku's great strength, as he yells to him that while he may have a special power, they all share the same feelings, and to think about what they said, or else he won't let him use food coloring for Eri's candy apples, which Izuku attempts to brush off.

Once Izuku was caught up by Tenya, Rikido regroups with the rest of Class 1-A and listens to Katsuki apologizing to Izuku before he collapses from shock and exhaustion. He escorts Izuku safely with the rest of Class 1-A to return to a heavily fortified U.A. High where they are confronted by angry protesting civilians. They are aware that Tomura is after Izuku and fear them being in danger, leading Ochaco to give a pleading speech toward the crowd on why he needs their help and deserves to stay and rest, with the civilians eventually agreeing. Izuku is escorted inside, where Rikido and the other boys of the class quickly strip him of his dirty clothes, washing him vigorously and then dump him in the bathtub before joining in. After finishing the bath, Izuku finally passes out from exhaustion, and Rikido joins the rest of the class in declaring they'll do whatever they can to bring back the world and make it better.

Current Arc
Two days later, Class 1-A learn that during this time, Tomura had fought American No. 1 Hero, Star and Stripe, and while she was killed during the battle with Tomura successfully stealing her Quirk, New Order, thanks to her actions, the Quirk acted like a virus within his body, destroying several of his Quirks and delaying his procedure by about a week. All Might informs all this to the class, telling them that this is now their perfect time to prepare for the inevitable all-out war. The class reveals over the past month they had been training with the Wild, Wild Pussycats in order to keep up with Izuku in the incoming conflict, and are now about to head out to continue their training.

The class proceed to train amongst themselves in the courtyards outside. Shortly after this, Rikido alongside the rest of the class discover the news that Izuku has captured the Aoyamas and revealing Yuga to be the traitor who isolated the class at the U.S.J. and revealed the location of their training camp. Once the Aoyamas are restrained, he and the other class refuse to back down from the news despite Nezu's request, all in stunned and tears of Yuga's betrayal. He listens to Yuga's desperation that drove him to despair and then Izuku pleading to let Yuga help them, leading the class to realize Yuga may be the only one able to deceive All For One.

Present Mic asks Class 1-A why, with them being the greatest victims after all this, they're so willing to trust him, and Tenya simply responds that what happened is in the past, and with them being unable to realize how he's been feeling all this time, they carry some responsibility, so they must reach out to him as friends in order for them to become equals again. Shota then appears on a tablet screen, taking full responsibility and reveals that he has an idea. He listened to Shota's plan after the Aoyama Family's ears have been covered. Naomasa then has the Aoyama Family escorted back to their HQ, telling everyone not to say a word to anyone else about the plan while he and the rest of the class look on sullenly.

Back at Heights Alliance, Rikido takes a breather, before getting ready to gear back up, as he and everyone, with fire and rage in their eyes over the betrayal, prepares to bring All For One down once and for all. He joins up with their "Search Squad" to head out to hunt down the villains.
