Chapter 388

Toya is the three hundred and eighty-eighth chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia.

Summary
After the Heroes manage to take out All For One's subordinates within the evacuation center, Battle Fist calls out to the civilians that the foundations of the system are sabotaged, ordering a retreat to the surface. They make their way out, with the U.A. robots being there to let the civilians evacuate to wherever they want to go. However, just outside, they all bear witness to the immense heat and destruction caused by Dabi's Blueflames. While the civilians are told not to look at the inferno and get as far away as possible, Rei rushes away from Fuyumi and Natsuo toward a robot, telling it to take her to the center of the fire, to which the robot responds that they exist to serve humans' desires.

Rei reaches Endeavor and Dabi's location, and uses her Quirk to attempt to shield herself from the heat, while also trying to cool Dabi off, calling out to him. Endeavor yells out for her to leave or she'll burn to death, but she responds it'll be the same for the two of them as well. Dabi manages to recognize Rei, who proceeds to apologize to her son. He then calls out to Fuyumi and Natsuo, with Rei turning around to realize her children had followed her, using their Quirks to protect them from the heat.

Rei yells at them not to come, but Fuyumi replies she can't take any more loss. She cries out to Toya not to take everyone down with him, unable to bear losing anyone else. Natsuo thinks back to when they were younger, and yells at his older brother to stop causing trouble. As the Todorokis continue shooting their ice toward Toya, Endeavor can only beg Dabi to not let anyone else die and he should be enough. In response, all Dabi can let out is a couple muffled laughs, whilst imagining the situation as one of him and his family being happy again, watching him like he always wanted.
