The phone rang, and Night Eye quickly picked up.
"Hello?"
"It's me."
"Calling this late… What is it? Are you going to tell me how amazing the I-Island Expo was?" Night Eye asked.
"Yes, it was amazing—just not in the way you think," All Might replied.
Night Eye hesitated for a moment, then asked curiously, "Then what was so amazing?"
"We were attacked by enemies—"
Before All Might could finish, Night Eye anxiously interrupted, "Are you all okay? Who was it? Don't tell me… All For One?"
"No, listen first. This enemy wasn't All For One, but they were still incredibly strong. Do you remember that prophecy you told me about a while back?" All Might asked.
"Of course. Though I was focusing on predicting your future, I did catch a glimpse of someone—Ezaki Kitazawa. It was a little blurry, but I saw him summon a thousand-armed giant and save you," Night Eye said slowly.
"I saw that giant today," All Might said.
There was silence on Night Eye's end for several seconds. Then, he finally spoke.
"You actually saw the thousand-armed giant?"
"Yes. To be honest, I still can't believe it. A first-year student from U.A. managed to summon such a terrifying giant… The principal was right—he was born to be a war god," All Might sighed.
Night Eye was momentarily stunned.
He had been All Might's assistant for a long time, but he had never heard him say something like this before.
That meant whatever happened today must have truly shaken him.
"When are you coming back?" Night Eye suddenly changed the subject.
"In two days."
"When you return, tell me everything in detail," Night Eye said softly.
"Mm."
With that, the call ended.
The next day, I-Island had mostly returned to normal operations.
Buildings damaged in the battle were being repaired as quickly as possible.
After what had happened last night, Ezaki Kitazawa became the hero who saved I-Island.
"Last night, I-Island was attacked. Over 100 people were injured, and 36 have been confirmed dead. But thanks to the efforts of our heroes, the enemy has been completely defeated, with five of them captured."
"According to our sources, the hero who saved I-Island was a student from R-country's U.A.—"
Just as the news played in the conference room, Ezaki Kitazawa's voice suddenly echoed through the room. "What did you just say? You want to build a statue of me in the center of I-Island?"
Ezaki Kitazawa looked shocked.
The conference room was filled with people—scientists, pro heroes, and investors from I-Island.
"Yes, Mr. Ezaki Kitazawa. You saved I-Island. You are undeniably the hero of this island. After discussions with I-Island's highest representatives, we've decided to build a statue of you in the center of I-Island, as a symbol of justice," one of the scientists explained.
*Click, click!*
Just then, another scientist pressed a remote control.
The room darkened, and a projector screen popped up, playing a video.
The footage showed Ezaki Kitazawa summoning the Thousand-Armed Giant.
"I was lucky enough to record this last night. Many pro heroes were involved in the battle, but in the end, it was this young genius who defeated the enemy leader. I believe none of the pro heroes here have any objections, right?" the scientist continued.
However, many of the pro heroes living on I-Island were clearly unhappy about this decision.
"I don't think this is appropriate. Yes, he defeated the enemy leader, but he's still a student. Building a statue for him seems excessive," one of them said.
"I agree. This is too rushed."
"He's right."
More than half of the pro heroes in the room were against it.
"Mr. Ezaki Kitazawa, what do you think?"
The highest representative of I-Island suddenly turned to ask him.
"Do whatever you want. I don't care," Ezaki Kitazawa replied indifferently.
"Alright. Since Mr. Ezaki Kitazawa has no objections, let's move on to the next topic.
"Being a hero has nothing to do with being a student. Last night, when you were all taken hostage by the enemy, it was these students who took on the difficult task of saving I-Island."
"They saved the scientists who have contributed greatly to I-Island. They saved all the people of I-Island. Last night, the name 'Ezaki Kitazawa' spread across the entire island."
After nearly half an hour of discussion, in the end, everyone agreed.
When the meeting was over, Ezaki Kitazawa returned to his hotel.
Ezaki Kitazawa Hellfire Lava(306/3000)
Wood(986/1000)
Creation Rebirth(200/1500)
Martial Arts Mastery(190/1000)
Generation Points:200(达到生成个性的标准)
Ezaki Kitazawa glanced over his stats and nodded in satisfaction. His Quirk would be leveling up again soon.
Just then, his phone rang on the table. He picked it up and saw an unfamiliar number. After hesitating for a moment, he decided to answer.
"Hello, is this Ezaki?"
A familiar voice came from the other end.
"Melissa?"
"Yeah! Do you have time right now? My dad wants to talk to you about your combat suit."
"My combat suit?"
Ezaki Kitazawa was a little surprised. David had mentioned it yesterday.
"Yes, my dad said that because of what happened yesterday, the top officials of I-Island have asked several scientists to get involved in designing a suit for you."
Melissa spoke slowly.
