As the battle raged across Terra Cyclonia, the Nomu decimated the forces of both Ravess and Snipe. But as the battle raged, the Nomu stopped their attack. It wasn't long until a broadcast of Shigaraki was playing across Terra Cyclonia.
Shigaraki: Soldiers of Cyclonia, Ravess and Snipe are dead. They died by my hands. Your traitorous leaders have led you astray. But you need not share their fate. Join me and I'll give you a chance to exact vengeance on the Sky Knights who have laid our Empire so low. Sky Knights and Cyclonians both thrive on violence, but we're still categorized. "You're good." "You're evil." That's how it is! But the so called "Symbol of Peace" is a fool. The Sky Knights would have us believe that they are the society's guardians. For generations... they pretended not to see those they couldn't protect... and swept their pain under the rug. It's tainted everything they've built. That means... their system's all rotten from the inside... with maggots crawling out. It all builds up... little by little, over time. They've got the common trash, all too dependent on being protected. And the brave guardians who created the trash that need coddling. It's a corrupt, vicious cycle. Everything I've witnessed... this whole system they've built has always rejected me. Now I'm ready to reject it. Let us all reject this sham society and burn it down to the ground! All I ask for is war, war so grand as to make Hell itself tremble. Cyclonians, I ask you as fellow brothers in arms what is it that you really want? Do you wish for further war as I do? Do you wish for a merciless, bloody war? A war whose fury is built with iron and lightning and fire? Do you ask for war to sweep in like a tempest, leaving not even ravens to scavenge from the Atmos!? It is time for them to awake the ones who sent us screaming into oblivion, and who now lie sleeping. Let's drag them out of bed by the hair, and remind them of what we are! We will remind them of what it feels like to live in fear. We will remind them of the sound our jackboots make against their throats. We will remind them that there are more things between Heaven and Hell than are dreamt of in their philosophy. We will show the Symbol of Peace just how meaningless his "peaceful society is! Let us....bring them....Hell.....
As the broadcast ended, the Cyclonians who fought for Ravess and Snipe quickly swore loyalty to Shigaraki's regime. In that moment, Shigaraki had gained control of the Cyclonian Empire. In the Cyclonian Empire, the Shadow Collective relished in their victory.
Toga: So now we're running the Cyclonian Empire? Cool!
Twice: I always knew that I'd rule the Cyclonian Empire! "WE" RULE! Shut up!
Dabi: Not bad, Shigaraki. I honestly didn't think you had it in you. I didn't think you'd have the conviction to see this through. Now you've proved me wrong.
Kurogiri: Congratulations, Tomura Shigaraki. The Cyclonian Empire is now yours. All For One would be most pleased.
As Kurogiri said this, Shigaraki's eyes glanced over to Master Cyclonis's throne. Without hesitation, Shigaraki walked over to the Cyclonian Throne and sat upon it. In that moment, Shigaraki had proclaimed himself ruler of the Cyclonian Empire. As he sat on the throne, Shigaraki turned to his fellow Shadow Collective members.
Shigaraki: The Shadow Collective is no more. We have grown past that name. From this day on, we shall be the bane of the Sky Knights. We shall be....the Cyclonian Imperial Front. The Sky Knights believe they've won the war. But we'll show them just how wrong they are. We're going to burn everything they hold dear. We'll burn down the foundations of their sham society and watch it all fall apart. But most importantly, we're going to kill All Might, but not before we break him. Not before we make him watch as all that he has built is burned to ashes. It is conflict that improves the lot of civilization and the single being both. Conflict forces one to better oneself. It forces change, growth, adaptation, evolution, or death. These are not our laws, but the universe's. Without conflict, you have only stagnation. For now, we will disperse across Atmos in small numbers, masking ourselves, hiding amidst the enemy. We will infiltrate governments on every planet. All must be brought down for something new to be created. Together or alone, we will slip onto worlds and strike from the shadows. We will be invisible. We will be patient. All that exists will be torn apart from within. And when our Empire is at full strength, we will unleash Hell....
In that moment, Tomura Shigaraki made it clear that he intended to follow through on his plans to burn Atmos to it's very foundations. Now with the might of the Cyclonian Empire at his disposal, Shigaraki now had the means to see his ambitions through. He would not stop until he saw Atmos burn to the ground. For now, all Shigaraki could do was wait as the Cyclonian Empire rebuilds itself from the Civil War. Meanwhile in his cell in Terra Atmosia, All For One could feel the shift in power. As he sat alone in his cell, a smile fell on his face. In that moment, all was going according to plan for All For One.
