The communications console at Police HQ buzzed insistently as the operators relayed updates from multiple teams. Team Edgeshot had breached the Villa perimeter, moving swiftly through the forested outskirts, while coordinated Hero squads sealed off the North, Southeast, and West exits, ensuring that no member of the Paranormal Liberation Front could escape. The Villa's only open route now was the heavily fortified front entrance, where Edgeshot and their elite allies pressed onward.
A murmur of unease rippled through the HQ as someone flagged the glaring absence of a critical report: Superman—Kai—was not responding. Melissa's fingers tightened around the comms, worry etching deep lines across her face, while Toshinori's normally calm features were tense, his brow furrowed. "Something's wrong," he muttered, voice low but carrying enough weight to freeze the surrounding operators. "Kai should've checked in by now."
Meanwhile, deep within the Villa's underground hallways, Re-Destro's composed exterior began to fray. He had been anxiously scanning the Villa's interior map, noting that Skeptic's regiment had yet to make any contact. Before he could press for updates, a Liberation soldier scurried in, breathless and panicked.
"The Heroes... they've begun their assault," the soldier stammered. "We're surrounded—they've infiltrated from all sides!"
Re-Destro's eyes widened, his pulse accelerating. His usually meticulous control slipped as stress levels skyrocketed, his hands clenching at his sides. "Surrounded?!" he barked, his voice carrying the edge of panic he rarely allowed anyone to hear. "How—how did they—?!"
The soldier shrank under his gaze, but Re-Destro didn't pause to berate him further. Every moment of delay could be catastrophic. The entire operation—the careful alignment of regiments, the placement of units, even his contingency plans—now teetered on the edge of collapse. A storm of frustration and anxiety bubbled beneath his cool exterior, threatening to explode at any second.
Up above, the Heroes pressed their advantage. Edgeshot's team moved with deadly precision, the Villa shaking under coordinated assaults and the strategic blockade of escape routes. Every second Kai remained silent gnawed at Melissa and Toshinori, their worry deepening as the threat within the Villa escalated with each passing heartbeat.
It was a moment of tense anticipation—two forces poised to collide, one confident but stressed to the edge, the other missing its most vital piece. And somewhere, deep underground, the chaos was only beginning.
The battlefield outside the Gunga Mountain Villa erupted with coordinated chaos. Amplivolt's eyes locked onto Chargebolt, the faint hum of electrical energy crackling around him. He gritted his teeth, preparing to channel another million volts, intent on overwhelming the young hero in a single, devastating strike. Sparks arced across the air, illuminating the terrified faces of nearby Liberation soldiers who realized the surge coming their way.
Before Amplivolt could release his attack, Edgeshot intervened with lethal precision. Folding and stretching his body in impossible ways, he executed his signature technique. "Ninpo: Thousand Sheet Pierce!" His razor-thin extensions sliced through the air, impaling Amplivolt and several nearby soldiers with surgical accuracy. Lungs punctured and movement halted, the enemies froze, groaning as blood trickled from their wounds. "Don't move," Edgeshot warned coldly, his voice cutting through the crackle of electricity.
Midnight's elegant movements followed seamlessly. Her Somnambulist Quirk activated, the air around her shimmering faintly as the affected Liberation soldiers' eyes rolled back and they collapsed into slumber. Kamui Woods surged next, chains lashing out with serpentine speed, forming his Lacquered Chain Prison around groups of soldiers and hoisting them into the air with unyielding force.
