Sentinel (BNHA x OC)

65: The Last Stand

The battlefield roared with chaotic energy as Heroes and allies clashed with the monstrous form of All For One. Each swing of All For One's grotesque arms sent waves of dark tendrils and Rivet Stabs surging across the battlefield, but the Heroes were determined, holding the line with all the strength they had left.

Yaze soared high above the battlefield, his wings spread wide, keeping a bird's-eye view on the chaos below. Next to him, Ryukyu was in her full dragon form, tearing through the sky, diving in and out of the oncoming tendrils, ripping them apart with her massive claws. "We need to keep him distracted!" Yaze shouted to Ryukyu as he dodged another wave of tendrils with a sharp twist of his wings. "He's too strong to be worn down, but we can keep him from using Decay on Mt. Fuji!"

Ryukyu roared in response, diving low to strike at All For One, her massive tail sweeping across the battlefield and smashing through a wave of the monstrous tendrils before they could regroup.

On the ground, Gentle Criminal bounced from one elastic barrier to the next, using his Quirk to divert the destructive Rivet Stabs away from the gathered heroes. "Stay vigilant, everyone!" he called, his voice serious, a contrast to his usual flamboyance. His movements were precise, and with La Brava coordinating through the comms, Gentle managed to place himself where he was needed most, blocking attacks and creating space for others to strike.

Death Arms, his mighty fists hammering into the regenerating darkness of the tendrils, was in his element. The once-retired Hero had come back stronger than ever, and his voice boomed across the battlefield. "We've got this! Just keep hitting him!" he yelled, his massive arms smashing through wave after wave of attacks.

Aizawa stood at the forefront, Erasure active as he focused on nullifying the most dangerous of All For One's Quirks. His body trembled from the strain, his eyes bloodshot, but he refused to back down. "Keep your heads on straight!" he shouted to the heroes around him. "Focus on defense, not just attack! We can't afford to let him gain ground!"

Sero's tape whipped through the air, entangling and binding the smaller tendrils, pulling them away from the front line. Ojiro and Sato worked together, smashing through the tendrils that tried to slip through the defenses. Ojiro's tail cracked like a whip, knocking back the dark masses, while Sato's powerful punches shattered the tendrils into nothing.

Sero, ducking under a Rivet Stab aimed at him, called out, "I'm keeping him tied up as long as I can, but he keeps regenerating these things!"

"We just need to hold him back until we get an opening!" Ojiro replied, his tail smashing through another tendril. "He's too big to hit directly with all this in the way."

Yaze, diving in and out of the air, focused his Biomorph Quirk, sending waves of power through the dark constructs. He could feel the pressure from All For One's Quirk, but Yaze's strikes cut deep, disrupting the Quirk Factors of the tendrils, preventing them from fully reforming as quickly. He watched as Ryukyu pummeled the ground with her claws, tearing through the dark matter with devastating force.

On the edges of the battlefield, Gentle Criminal continued to support the others with his elastic barriers. Each time a Rivet Stab came close to hitting a hero, Gentle would create an elastic platform, redirecting the deadly attacks away. "La Brava, how are we looking?" Gentle asked as he leapt through the air, deflecting another barrage of tendrils aimed at Aizawa.

"I'm monitoring everything from here, Gentle! I've already hacked into the media's surveillance feeds, and I'm feeding our allies updated positions in real-time. They'll know where the threats are before they even appear!" La Brava's voice came through Gentle's earpiece, filled with confidence.

Yaze saw this as their moment. With Ryukyu, Gentle, Death Arms, and the students holding off the relentless tendrils, they had All For One's attention divided. This was the chance to strike directly at the villain. "Now! Ryukyu, go for the core!" Yaze shouted as he flew high above All For One, charging his energy for a concentrated strike.
