With Yaoyorozu, 3rd person POV:

As the battle continued on, Yaoyorozu tried to flee the scene with the assistance of using the mass chaos to her advantage. 'I just need to find a way to climb over the ice. After that, I can make a raft and hopefully escape this place. The last thing I want is for my uncle to think I'm aligned with the Whitebeards.' She glanced back to notice the ice crack apart and give a clear opening. 'Luck might be in my favor after all.' A flashback to Izuku's speech to her forced Yaoyorozu to stop for a moment. Right now, he's fighting with all he has to defeat Akainu and save who he fought for his life to in the prison. 'C'mon. Don't get sentimental right now. Yes, you feel like crap for what you did, but be realistic. The chances of the Whitebeards winning against uncle Akainu and the entire Marines best is almost zero. There's no way they're gonna pull it off and your involvement is only going to get you killed.'

"What are you doing here?" Yaoyorozu froze when she heard her uncle. She slowly turned to the voice to see it was towards a corner. She slowly moved to glance over and see him talking with a soldier.

"Please sir. I have a family. I can't join in this fight and die."

"You're a Marine, that means you'll live and die for the cause." She noticed the anger on her uncle to worry.

"Please sir. I'm begging. I'll accept the court martial, but please don't send me back out there! It's a death trap!"

'The Marine has one thing right there. I wouldn't be surprised if more people started losing the will to fight after the level of chaos.' Yaoyorozu somewhat felt for the Marine. He genuinely didn't want to die and leave his family behind enough to accept a court martial. Akainu though, had no desire for this.

"Do you understand that we're in the middle of a war? Do you understand where we are right now. If you can't give me your willingness to fight and die for this cause, then what good are you?" Akainu grabbed the Marine with his hand turning to magma. Not wanting to see what would happen next, Yaoyorozu turned her head away to only be met by the screams of the soldier to have a disturbingly vivid idea what he did. "I have no use for spineless weaklings that aren't committed to the cause."

Glancing back towards where the Marine was, a giant mass of magma was left for the worst thoughts the Creation quirk user had to come to reality. 'He...he just killed his own man. Yes he was willingly offering insubordination, but in a war that's bloody like this, he should've just gotten prison time. He never turned and killed his own men to merit his death.' Yaoyorozu began seeing at this point the true monster her uncle is. She understood he was over the top, but she didn't fully know how much. Now she realized the whole gruesome truth. Akainu was nothing but a man using the act of justice to commit murder and further his own ideals.

"Are all the villains in the bay?" Yaoyorozu was brought back to reality when she heard Akainu talk through a Transponder Snail. "The second they are, raise the gates and we'll continue onto phase two."

"We're having difficulty raising the gates. The ice is too thick."

"Damned Aokiji. Even after I allowed you to return, you still cause problems for me. Diverge all power towards the gates and raise them up now! The second they are, we'll sink the Whitebeards, the treacherous pros and the villains in one fell swoop. We'll show the world that we can do things the modern hero society cannot by killing the League of Villains, the Hassaikai and any other villain that would dare try and prove themselves above the law."

"Yes sir." The snail went silent for Yaoyorozu to be mortified by the plan.

'He made a deal with villains just to drown them with Whitebeard? Even by Marine standards, that's low.' Looking at the options, Yaoyorozu began running back towards the battlefield. On her way, she passed a mirror to see Brulee in it to shock her. 'What's a member of Big Mom's crew doing here?' she shook her head and kept going. 'I don't have any choice. Either I try and flee and die or I fight and at least try and salvage the hopes of living. God I feel like kicking myself right now.'

With Izuku

As Izuku fought the unknown villain, the two deemed it somewhat an impasse for them. The villain would attempt to kill Izuku by turning the ice into spikes, while Izuku would evade them with his mochi powers and attack back for them to be met by a wall of ice made. Hado had helped how she could with creating waves to destroy the remodified ice for it to do next to nothing with ice being shot back at her to force her to destroy that. "Your the Yakuza head if I'm not mistaken. Kai Chisaki, correct?" Izuku asked while sending another punch for it to be blocked by more ice.

"I abandoned that name long ago. Now I just go by Overhaul." Overhaul slammed his hand to the ground for the spikes to narrowly puncture Izuku with him turning to Mochi to avoid it. "I'm sure you know that your chances of winning today are extremely low."

"Says the man that's the lap dog of a power hungry warmonger." This comment was met with a ice spear to Izuku's head for it to go through. "I take it that struck a nerve?"

"You honestly think I'm joining just to be his lackey. Keep in mind what Jinbei had abandoned due to his lack of commitment. If I were to become a Warlord here, that would make my group regain it's place in the underworld once more due to being protected by the Marines."

Izuku started to laugh a little at this. "To be honest, I wouldn't be surprised if Akainu gave you this in hopes that he could kill you and the rest of these villains here in one fell swoop. All you are is a disposable pawn to that man." The sound of loud sirens were heard for large gates to come out of the ice and block off the bay and the land. "What did I tell you. Disposable pawn."

Seeing what happened, Overhaul felt notable irritation for him to walk over towards the gate. "You honestly think crossing us was a smart idea, Fleet Admiral? You're going to see just why angering us isn't something you should've done." Overhaul along with Shigaraki who was fighting off the Whitebeards at the time, placed their hand on the gates for them to be disassembled into spikes to puncture Marines directly behind them as well as crumble them down to nothing.

"Well that was his own fault."

"Midoriya. We'll settle our business at a later date. For now, I'm going to kill that son of a bitch who thought he could double cross the Hassaikai."

"Get in line. He's mine to kill." Shigaraki ran into the base with Izuku prepared to do so as well. However, his body started to become limp with pain beginning to settle in.

"Dammit. Not now."

"Midoriya! Are you ok!?" Hado asked, coming down towards the ground to see him panting.

"The hormones that Ivankov hit me with must've worn off."

"That they did." Ivankove came towards Izuku with a bunch of the Newkama residents. "Take it from me, Shroud Boy. You did enough. Pull back and rest up."

"I'm not pulling back yet. Hit me with what you did before."

"ARE YOU INSANE!? MY POWERS AREN'T A MIRACLE WORKING AGENT! THE AMOUNT OF DAMAGE DONE TO YOUR BODY PRIOR TO ME EVEN GIVING YOU THE FIRST WAS EXESTENTIAL! YOU CAN'T HANDLE MORE WITHOUT RISKING A NOTABLE AMOUNT OF YOUR LIFESPAN! ALL MY POWERS DO IS NULLIFY THE PAIN, BUT THE DAMAGE IS STILL THERE!"

"I DON'T CARE! I'M SO CLOSE TO SAVING ACE AND RYUKYU THAT I CAN'T AFFORD TO BE OUT OF COMMISSION NOW!" Izuku was furious with Ivankov still extremely against what he was suggesting.

"I know I'm going to kick myself for this later, but I sure hope you know what you're doing." Ivankov turned his fingers into needles before pulling his hand back. "Emporio Energy Hormone!" He jammed Izuku with them for the energy to surge up once again. "Keep in mind, you're not going to be getting back up again after this dose wares off and there's only so much fatigue you'll have covered now."

"Fine by me! Mochi Mochi Shrink!" Izuku increased his speed to go barreling into the crowd of Marines with several heroes and members of the Whitebeards joining in.

"What did you hit him with?" Hado asked for Ivankov to make a simple explanation.

"It's a drug basically to cancel out the body's natural response to fatigue. He already got a shot after narrowly escaping certain death. He was already exhausted from that before the prison break and now this. Even though he doesn't feel it. The more he moves around, the more damage he's doing to his own body." Ivankov turned to her members of Newkama Land to speak up. "Alright my candies! Do your best and protect Shroud Boy! We owe him a debt and I plan to pay it back in full! Are you with me!?"

"HE HAW!" The group ran towards the entrance to the fort with Hado in shock.

"Who knew Midoriya had so many friends. They are a little odd though."

"It's more his power to bring people together." Jinbei walked over to explain. "A power like his to make even his own enemies fight for a common goal. That is a power that all who oppose him should fear and marvel at."

"Is Midoriya really that amazing? I knew he was strong and did some awesome things, but I didn't know he was that special."

"It's something unique that you hardly ever see. Now comes the question if he can use that and succeed in his goal of saving Ace and Ryukyu." Members of the Whitebeards came past the two with Jinbei taking a calm breath. "We're lagging behind. We should get moving." Hado and Jinbei began running towards the fort with everyone else prepared to fight for the same goal as everyone else. The freeing of their allies.

With Izuku

As Izuku got out of the bay, he began attacking every Marine that dared stand in his way. When he got towards Oars's head, he was attacked by Moria. "Seems my luck is just getting better! I get a living relative of the World Puller and the son of Katakuri! Kishishishishishi!" Several zombies came at Izuku with him prepared to take them all on. Before he could though, a hand came out of nowhere to grab them all and throw them a distance away.

"Nobody. WIL HARM MY LITTLE BROTHER!" Oars shouted as he towered over everyone even on his knees before grabbing Moria to throw him into a wall, knocking him out in the process.

"Oars! You're alive!" Izuku was beyond happy to see his friend still breathing, but quickly felt regret seeing the loss of one of his legs. "Oars....I think you should stay back now."

"I'll manage."

"But you already did so much. Also, your leg."

"I've got another. Besides. I wanna save Ace and Ryukyu just as much as you. I'm not gonna stop when we're so close. I wanna be there when they're free to see it with my own eyes to say I was able to help make this happen to the end."

Izuku felt the exact same Oars did to understand his reasoning. "I promise I'll help Pops and everyone get a prosthetic for you when this is over."

"Thanks-*BOOM*" Oars was cut off with cannon fire to the head by Marines for this to topple his already weakened body over.

"OARS! NO!"

"Izuku." Oars was barely able to stay alive with blood coming down his forehead. "Save Ace and Ryukyu." He toppled to the ground with a notable amount of rage filling in Izuku.

"WHO SHOT THAT!? TELL ME!" Several cannons pointed at Izuku for him to grow his arms. "YAKI MOCHI!" He shot blasts at the cannons to destroy them before continuing onwards to the scaffold. "I promise you won't die in vein, Oars. I'll save Ace and Ryukyu even if it kills me."

"Hold it right there." Izuku turned to see Hancock standing in front of him.

"Are you gonna fight me too? I have respect for you for what you did, but I won't hold back if it means I need to save Ace and Ryukyu." She held her finger to her mouth before going for a solid kick to Izuku's head. He blocked this with Hancodk tossing a key to him.

"That's the key to their handcuffs. I'm going to make an opening so you can send me a distance away. When that happens, run."

"Thank you. You didn't have to do this, but I do respect you a lot for it." Hancock jumped back before pulling her leg back to leave herself open. Izuku pulled his fist back and sent a Mochi Pistol to her torso to send her flying back. Fortunately for her, Hancock was able to recover and stomp on a Marine who broke her fall. Once she was safe, Izuku ran as fast as he could towards the scaffold to see the two captives clearly. "ACE! RYUKYU! DON'T WORRY! I'M ALMOST THERE!"

"YOU IDIOT! GET OUT OF HERE! THIS ISN'T A PLACE FOR A KID!" Ace shouted with Izuku looking directly at him. "THIS HAS NO MERIT TO YOU! GO HOME! YOU HAVE NO OBLIGATION TO BE HERE NOR DID POPS OR ANY OF US WANT YOU TO-"

"YOU'RE GETTING MY HELP WHETHER YOU LIKE IT OR NOT, ACE! EVEN IF YOU THINK I HAVE NO RIGHT TO, I NEED TO DO THIS! I NEED TO PROVE TO YOU AND RYUKYU THAT YOU DIDN'T WASTE YOUR TIME WITH ME AND THAT I'M NOT A USELESS SACK OF CRAP TO YOU! SO ACCEPT IT!"

Ace was shocked. Izuku rarely spoke back to him and when he did, it was to try and justify his situation a little. Ryukyu on the other hand, smiled knowing Izuku was willing to go to lengths he was. "I guess he's just that much of an idiot. WELL THEN, HURRY UP!"

Izuku smiled at this before being hit in the head by a metal staff. This disoriented him for a moment before seeing Yaoyorozu blocking his path. "Yaoyorozu. What the hell are you doing?"

"Doing what I have to." She held her staff coated with Haki in front of Izuku while giving an uneasy smirk. "If you want to save Ace and Ryukyu, then that makes you the enemy of the Marines. THAT MAKES YOU MY ENEMY! PREPARE YOURSELF, CHARLOTTE!"

And that finishes this chapter. See what happens with Yaoyorozu and Izuku's fight next time. Hope you all enjoyed and thanks for reading.
