Chapter 259

A Quiet Beginning (静かな始まり) is the two hundred and fifty-ninth chapter of Kohei Horikoshi's My Hero Academia.

Summary
The chapter begins with a meeting, where detective Naomasa explains to the heroes gathered there about who Shiga Maruta is. Dr. Maruta has no Quirk and he is founder and current board chairman of Jakku General Hospital. He is an advocate of Quirk-based healthcare and is a renowned philanthropist, opening numerous nursing homes and orphanages as well partnered with several private clinics.

When Rock Lock asks why are they going after him, Noamasa replies that one of his subordinates goes undercover in the hospital, and followed Maruta to an area of the hospital that does not appear in the blueprints and managed to get a photo of Maruta alongside a small Nomu. Naomasa thinks that arresting Maruta will not be difficult but everyone should act with caution so that disasters like those of Hosu and Kamino cannot be repeated. The objective is to take all the members and associates of the Paranormal Liberation Front down at once.

A large group of pro heroes that include Edgeshot, Mount Lady, Ms. Joke, Fat, Kamui Woods and a variety of other pro heros are on the front lines by the Liberation Front mansion. Some students like Denki, Fumikage, Tamaki, Kinoko and Juzo are with this group as well. Sensing that Kinoko is worried, Midnight explains that the students just be helping a little, after which they can retreat. Denki, on the other hand, also feels uneasy and complains why he is on the front lines, wanting to be with his classmates. It’s revealed that schoolmates from Class A and Class B and other schools are waiting a little further away.
