"YAHAHAHAHAHA! LOOKS LIKE YOU'RE FINALLY DOWN, DABI!"

The group turned to see what looked to be a man wearing armor; but it looked broken as pieces were missing, revealing parts of his scarred body. He appeared to have a cleaver in his hand as it had been stained with blood, as well as his tail made of steel.

The man looked to be scared mostly as even the expression on his face looked deranged. He had a crazy smile plastered on his face as he laughed a sickening laugh. Dabi quickly put himself in front of Reina as did Kazho and Koichi as he placed King on the ground.

Bethany and Valentine readied themselves as Will let out an aggressive hiss.

The man let out a laugh as he said, "Prepare to die by my hands by the Warrior, you bastard Villains!"

Reina couldn't help but be taken back by that name as she looked to him shocked. She had heard of that name before, when she was a kid. Hizashi would often tell her stories about the Warrior. He saved people's lives from the cities, how he worked with All Might in several cases, and how he saved many others from the debris with the help of his tail.

She was told that he went to the countryside and was never heard from again.

"The Warrior?" Reina said, stunned as she removed herself from Dabi, "As in, Haruto Saiya, Warrior?"

"You know this lunatic?!" Dabi said.

"He's a Pro Hero!" She told him, "The people that looked after me, told me all sorts of stories about him! But--" She soon turned him, "--I don't understand, they told me, you went missing! No one heard of what became of you and they said you were dead!"

"Ha! Typical of the Media falsing the truth!" The Warrior shouted as he slammed his tail on the ground "Like the villains they are!"

"Villains?" Reina said shocked, "No, you got it all wrong! We're just here to--"

Reina had been cut off when the Warrior got up close and personal with her as he said, "That's just what a Villain wants me to think!"

"I'm pretty sure this guy has a screw loose." Valentine said.

"Can't argue with you there." Bethany said.

"Look Warrior sir, we're not here to cause trouble!" Reina said to him, "We're just here to salvage a part and leave."

"Kid, trust me when I say this guy isn't in the mood for talking!" Dabi said, taking her arm.

"But--" She started to say before she was cut off by his laughter

The Warrior soon said, "Trust me lady, I know your kind anywhere! 'Salvage a part' you say. The next thing you know you'll be making a weapon that kills millions of innocent people!"

"THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE SAID AT ALL!!" Koichi shouted.

"What are you talking about?!" Bethany said, "We're trying to help the Villagers fix a tractor for their harvest!"

The group saw the Warrior didn't look convinced at this sort of thing. "Why would I believe a bunch of Villains like you?!" The Warrior said, shocking them again, "You guys just don't know when to quit! Everytime I think I'm safe from you lot, keep coming back like cockroaches!"
