3rd person pov:

As the new spiritual form stands up. Roots as black as coal sprout out of the ground and bind to aizawa, jiro, and sero. As it touches them. Thorns pierce the skin and travel into their limbs. Preventing movement.

As mic goes to cut aizawa free. He is thrown against the wall by a massive lillypad.

Baku/izu:"Damn fly. Quit buzzing around."

Aiz:"amaster!"^Wait, why am I calling a human master?^

As aizawa thinks back. The thorns pierce the eyes in his palms. Then darkness surrounds him.

Toko:^You have lost what made you free. Guiding sailors was a passion of yours, but you enslaved yourself to humans for too long. Eventually, your spirit died. Mindlessly obeying them without question. It wasn't plastic, but humanity that actually poisoned your soul.^

As aizawa cries out in denial. The roots spread faster.

Aiz:"YOU'RE WRONG! YOU'RE WRONG YOU'RE WRONG YOU'RE-"

The thorns impale him and come out where his eyes use to be. Then he turns to salt. Blowing away in the wind.

Kirishima sees this and stats to run away. That's when the mangrove roots part.

Izubaku:"You think you aren't guilty? Think again. After what you've done. There's only one fate left for you. "

Kirishima sinks into the marsh, and at the bottom are cacti waiting as moss pulls him down.

Then mic stands up ready to fight. So the spirit tilts his head.

Baku:"Feeling a bit groggy are we? Well jump mother fucker, and see what happens."

As he cracks his knuckles. Mic rushes forward in a last-ditch effort.  Only to be surrounded by shadows. That's when the blonde hair turns black.

Hawks quivers in fear, and bows. As others feel the earth weeping at the fallen earth spirit. Only to bow to the new one who stands before them.

Jiro and sero regain control of themselves and bow aswell.

Baku/izu:" Oh don't worry. I'm not a threat to you,  but they are."

The village has seen everything. As shared memories have been sent to them of pic's crimes.

Mic:" Th... They're tricking you all! I would never-"

Sero bites him to paralyze him.

Jiro:"He tried to kill me. As you all saw. Now that we are here. What shall you say?!"

One by one, the crowd deems him guilty. So they drag him away.  The the black hair fades. As bakugou takes control of the body.

Baku:"Oi deku! De...deku?"

Izu^I'm here. I'll give you power. In exchange for your company.^

Baku:^You damn idiot. No deal is needed anymore. Because nothing can break us apart.^

As izuku hugs Bakugou's contious.  They embrace with a kiss, and hold hands. Ready to take on the future together.  That way they'll never be alone again.
