Despite the severe injuries to his body, All Might stood tall, his presence radiating an unshakable resolve and for a moment everything went silent. 

"Do you not know how to hold back?" All Might finally spoke, breaking the silence that we created.

"It was to rescue my companions. I had no choice." Shigaraki answered. "I mean earlier, that,..that girl over there." I turned my head to look at Shigaraki, his eerie hand-covered face turned towards me, his red eyes narrowing in frustration."She was about to punch me with everything she had, you know."

The memory of my fist swinging toward Shigaraki flashed in my mind. I had been so close, just a fraction of a second away from connecting with him before Nomu intercepted my punch. The thought sent a shiver down my spine, realizing just how dangerous that moment had been. If I had touched him, who knows what could have happened?

"Violence for the sake of others makes it admirable. Isn't that right hero?" Shigaraki's expression twisted into a sinister smile. "You know what, All Might? I'm angry at this world that categorizes the same violent acts as heroic or villainous, deciding what's good and what's bad. Symbol of Peace, ha?" His voice had a mocking tone to it. "You're just a device to repress violence.  Violence only breeds violence. The world will know that once we kill you!"

My blood boiled at his words, but I knew now wasn't the time to lose focus.

"That's preposterous." All Might's voice cut through the tension. "The eyes of white-collar criminals like you burn silently. You just want to enjoy this yourself, don't you, you liar?"

As I stood next to Bakugo my heart pounded and I noticed Todoroki, Midoriya, and Kirishima stepping forward. Their faces were set with determination, and I could see the resolve in their eyes. They were ready to step into a battle.

Todoroki was the first to speak, his voice calm but firm. "It's three against six."

Midoriya nodded, his fists clenched. "Kacchan already exposed the fog's weakness!"

Kirishima, ever the brave one, added. "These guys are crazy, but if we backup All Might, we can push them back."

They were ready to charge forward, to throw themselves into the fight despite the danger. I could feel the same urge rising with me - the urge to protect, to stand by All Might's side no matter the cost.

But before any of us could make a move, All Might's booming voice stopped us in our tracks. "No!" He shouted. "Run away."

"You would've been in trouble if I hadn't done anything earlier, right?" Todoroki spoke. 

"That was a different story, Young Todoroki. Thanks."  All Might's tone remained resolute. "But it's fine! Just watch as a pro gives it everything he's got." 

There was a brief moment of hesitation. I could see the conflict in Midoriya's eyes, he wanted to help so badly, but he knew better than to disobey All Might. Todoroki looked at All Might with a mix of respect and frustration, while Kirishima clenched his fists, torn between his desire to fight and his trust in All Might's words.

I, too, felt the urge to step in, to use every ounce of strength I had to protect everyone. But looking at All Might, I realized that this wasn't just a battle of strength, it was a symbol of hope, and All Might was our beacon.

Shigaraki, who had been eyeing us with malicious intent, took a step forward, his eerie grin widening as he began to run towards us.

But before Shigaraki could reach us, All Might delivered a powerful blow to Nomu, the impact of which sent a strong gust of wind our way. It was like being hit by a freight train. The sheer force knocked us all off balance, and before I knew it, I was thrown backward by the blast.
