Third Person POV

Most villains who paraded around in the city were dumb. The transmigrated Phantom Troupe was not.

They were living with a hero, they could not afford mistakes.

Naturally, they wore black tactical gear and full face helmets. Any of their usual fashion flair would immediately give them away if seen.

The entirety of their body needed to be covered by standardized gear that you could get from anywhere.

The only identifying marks were numbers 1 through 5 stitched on everyone's left shoulder.

They were about to commit a crime after all. But, can you really call it a crime if you are performing it on a dangerous criminal?

The group had been tracking Overhaul's movement for quite some time now. The stakeout was bordering on six hours.

When Overhaul was finally well and truly alone, the group made their move. Hitoshi made a few commanding hand gestures and they were off.

They needed to be careful with this opponent. No one in the group was inclined to be disintegrated, so they opted for the safest (and most boring) option.

Hitoshi used the voice projection he built into the mask he sported and said, "You will not use your quirk. And don't speak unless spoken to."

Overhaul easily repeated the words, his eyes foggy. When he snapped back into clarity he was quickly attacked by Feitan, who used Overhaul's momentary disorientation to swipe his sword at him.

Now, while any of them could easily take care of Overhaul, they all itched for a good fight.

Feitan made precise cuts along Overhaul's limbs, right where he knew it would hurt most.

Illumi jumped in and engaged Overhaul in hand to hand, it was immediately obvious to the assassin that the villain likely relied too much on his quirk. His hand to hand was sub par.

Hisoka used his Bungee Gum to effectively stick Overhaul's feet to the ground.

"Well that was ridiculously boring." Hisoka drawled through the standardised voice modulator in his mask. Everyone had one

"I thought you said he was strong." Feitan agreed.

"His quirk is strong, without it I guess he doesn't amount to much." Hitoshi shrugged.

"I want his ability." Chrollo stated.

"We're going to be killing him, doesn't that remove the ability from your book?"

Chrollo nodded, "death removes nen abilities, but since quirks are something else, I don't think it will."

"Only one way to find out," Hitoshi shrugged, "use your quirk on the tree over there." He commanded.

Overhaul did as ordered.

"Answer number 2's questions."

"What does your quirk do?"

"It can disassemble and reassemble matter at my will."

"Touch your hand to number 2's book."

Overhaul did so.

Chrollo watched the quirk appear in the pages of his book. He held his hand out to a different tree and willed it to turn to dust. It did.
