Summary

More villains keep materializing inside the Unforeseen Simulation Joint, and Shota Aizawa makes sure his students understand none of this is staged. He hands Thirteen the job of evacuating Class 1-A and getting word to U.A., and when Izuku doubts one man can hold off a crowd this size, Shota assures him he has a few tricks left before throwing himself into the fight.

He carves through them with unsettling ease, his specialty being exactly this kind of one against many brawl. The villains soon place him as Eraser Head and recall what his Quirk does. Izuku watches his teacher stand his ground in astonishment until Tenya Ida snaps him back and tells him to leave with everyone else.

The evacuation stalls when Kurogiri blocks the exit, announcing that the League of Villains has come to kill All Might. Katsuki Bakugo and Eijiro Kirishima strike at him and accomplish nothing, and his Warp Gate scatters most of the class across the U.S.J.'s zones.

Izuku lands in the Flood Zone, where a villain lunges to swallow him whole. Tsuyu Asui intervenes, snatching him with her tongue and flinging him onto a ship, then tossing Minoru Mineta aboard before climbing up herself. Grateful but bewildered, Izuku puzzles over why anyone would target All Might, then concludes that thinking solves nothing here. The only path left, he tells the other two, is to fight and win, which horrifies Minoru. With that, Class 1-A's battle against the villains is joined.
