Shoji: Shinso.

"That would be me." Shinso said. "Are you okay with that?"

Izuku held his breath as Ogawa turned to Kacchan, then nodded, "Yes. If Bakugo brought you here, then I..."

He went blank and Bakugo grabbed the doctor's arm when he moved to interfere, "This isn't one of the villains, doc. You got him, Eyebags?"

Mitsuki: I hope that doctor doesn't make things more complicated than it has to be...

Tsukauchi: Well if that doctor is doing his job right then he's definitely going to call someone...

All Might: Maybe they could even finally get young Midoriya arrested.

"Yeah..." Shinso said. "But for someone who agreed to being brainwashed, he's fighting a lot more than I'm used to."

Monoma(realizing): Oh, the vestiges.

"Oi! Dumbass!" Kacchan yelled. "Stop fighting! He's trying to help you, you idiot!"

"I don't think he is." Izuku muttered. "Um, excuse me? I know you're trying to help him, and we really appreciate all you're doing to protect him, but we're trying to save him to, so can you please stop fighting?"

"Um... who are you talking to?" Shinso asked. "He's not gonna be able to respond like this."

Momo: He's not talking to Ogawa.

"Oh, I know." Izuku answered. "But your quirk is currently affecting Ogawa, not the past holders of his quirks."

"That makes sense." The doctor nodded. "We think they're what's been knocking him out of the villain factory's control so far."

Izuku turned back to Ogawa who was just staring blankly into space, and addressed the vestiges, "Shinso has a quirk really similar to the ones putting Ogawa in danger, so it's understandable that you want to fight to free him, but the first step to actually doing that is to put him under Shinso's control so he can try to hijack the commands, okay?"

Bondo: Please listen...

They waited a long minute until Shinso sighed in relief, "Okay, they've stopped. What now?"

Izuku smiled, somehow excited despite the high stakes, "Now we fight for him!"

Hawks: It ends there?!

Jana: You're still doing that? Seriously? The next chapter is literally right here!
