 * Number 6 uses the in-fighting between the Heroes, Police, and Vigilantes to execute his ultimate plan: "Operation Anonymous".
 * Phase 1: Using Electromagnetic Waves to shut off all the power and communications throughout Naruhata, forcing everyone to become disorientated.
 * Phase 2: Blocking off all the roads with a series of minor disruptions, caused by a group of mindless drones he is controlling known as the Anonymous.
 * Phase 3: Use the Anonymous to cause trouble in Naruhata through minor aggressions, such as vandalism, to create a sense of unease amongst the public, while keeping damage to a minimum to prevent the appearance of All Might.
