On a Knife-Edge (
Summary[]
The Heroes left running at the mercy of Dabi and "Twice".
As Uravity and Froppy arrive at the Gunga Mountain Ruins, a Twice Double reverts back to Himiko, telling them she's not a schoolgirl in love anymore. The Sad Man's Parade and Dabi's Blueflames start to overwhelm the Heroes, as Pixie-Bob puts up a earth wall to protect themselves and telling everyone to retreat. Kamui Woods carries Shemage, who laments being unable to use her mushrooms in the fire, while Shishido says to move the captured Villains or they'll be burned up too.
Having seen both Kurogiri and now Dabi there too, Froppy starts to worry about Shoto and Tentacole, hoping they're okay. The two then reunite with Earphone Jack and Tsukuyomi, noticing the former having lost her ear, but she replies she was lucky that was all she lost. Uravity says that all of Japan will be buried unless they stop Himiko, but Tsukuyomi tells them Dabi's flames are too hot, so all they can do is flee now that their divide and conquer strategy has failed.
While fighting off Twice Doubles, Endeavor recognizes the fire around Dabi's chest as Shoto's Phosphor move, asking what happened to him. Dabi says he wanted to give him his head but he was too strong, upset that his dream won't come true, but he will still try to take as much as he can from whatever he tries to protect. All For One laughs as this is going on, thinking about how the chain of events is working in his favor, and figuring that Kurogiri warped himself to Tomura's location, also noting that he would've obtained his far superior Warp Gate Quirk.
Hawks halts All For One from fleeing.
All For One attempts to use the chaos as cover and blast over to Tomura himself, but Hawks blocks him, asking him why he is in such a rush to leave, even despite the Rewind effect, realizing he doesn't have faith in Tomura's "perfect body". All For One responds that he's right the body isn't complete, and that he is still essential for the process. Hawks cries out to Endeavor that since their divide and conquer plan was a bust, if things fall apart now it will eventually reach Deku and Tomura, so they need to stop Dabi now.
All For One attempts to lambast Hawks by reminding him that Endeavor's already lost an arm and that he's supposed to be trying to stop him rather than abandoning his duty, but Hawks smugly responds that he's already lost to him once. As Dabi comes charging toward him, Endeavor thinks about his duty, and how this time, he's really seeing Toya.
