ALL NOVEL Rumors and Raid.
[Next day, 10 PM]
The rumors of a new enhanced trigger soon to be launched in the market, was spread in the Underworld. The whole underworld was in uproar as the trigger is very popular among the criminals.
Trigger is a type of drug that gives a boost to an individual's Quirk, simultaneously weakening their sense of reason. Originally, Trigger was created to massively enhance the power and potency of weak Quirks. However it was soon used for criminal activities, so it was banned in many countries, including Japan, becoming an illegal product with which gangsters and drug dealers around the world traffic.
Trigger is produced in different regions of the world, so its quality can vary from one place to another. Those produced in Asia are usually of poor quality and their effects only last a few minutes, while the Trigger produced in America can last an hour or two.
The rumors were that the upcoming drug is more potent than the American version. This was enough for the whole Underworld to look forward to the release of the upcoming Drug. The source of the drug is said to be the Yakuza Shie Hassaikai. Shie Hassaikai is a normal Yakuza which supplies Trigger to dealers around Japan as a means for income. They usually They commit a series of unresolved crimes where they escape with the stolen money. This makes the government see them as a normal Yakuza but behind the scenes they supply triggers. The standing of Shie Hassaikai is not very big in the Underworld, they are seen as normal suppliers of triggers.
Many people didn't take this in a positive light, and one of them being the Suppliers of American version of triggers in Japan, as the new Trigger is more potent then theirs. The news of the new trigger also reached US, creating more the noise than expected. Now, Eyes of various big players of Underworld were on the normal Yakuza Shie Hassaikai.

[12:30 AM]
In a simple room, Overhaul (Kai Chisaki) was sitting on a sofa with his hands supporting his head. Chronostasis and Mimic were standing opposite to Overhaul.
"Can anyone of you tell me how did this happened?"-Overhaul
Both of them were silent.
The news of rumors spreading about enhanced trigger to be released by Shie Hassaikai also reached Overhaul, but it was too late, as the news is already known by many people in the Underworld. Some of those people who were somehow connected to Shie Hassaikai contacted the Yakuza for confirmation and reserving some batches of the new trigger for them.
Overhaul couldn't understand how did this happened. They were trying to gather resources and Income very stealthily, under the noses of the government and authorities. The research of their Quirk-Destroying Drug was also going smoothly and it was estimated that 10 months are required to obtain the desired effect and a year to mass produce the drug. They were trying so hard to not garner attention.
But... This rumor was just declaring their existence to the whole world.
The rumor was obviously fake, they were trying to make Quirk-Destroying Drug not Quirk-Enhancing Drug (Trigger). But who made this rumor. The source of rumor is very hard to find now, as the rumor is already spread too much. But one thing can be concluded that the source is a very powerful one or has a large of number of connections, as the rumors spread too fast. Many people didn't believed the authenticity of the rumor but this has already made the skeptical about the existence of the drug and bringing the existence of Shie Hassaikai to light to many, in the Underworld.
They had to take action very soon or they will be targeted by many forces.
"Chrono, call back every member of the clan back to the base and prepare, we need to leave by tomorrow. Mimic, tell about the leaving plan to the Eight Bullets and tell them to not reveal this to others."-Overhaul
Overhaul has already decided to leave the base with important members while taking the research data, they've collected over the time. They will leave the base while the normal members are guarding the base. This will act as a illusion to the others that the yakuza is still in the base while they're already gone. Overhaul doesn't value humans, viewing people as pawns for their utilitarian value and being willing to experiment on them to accomplish his objectives. He carries this sentiment even towards the other members of the organization he has dedicating himself to since childhood, treating them as expendable sacrifices for his well-being and having no qualms in killing them off for the smallest mistakes. The only person Kai has ever shown concern for is the former boss of the Shie Hassaikai, who rescued him from the streets at a very young age and raised him as a yakuza.
Chronostasis and Mimic left the room to fulfill his orders. Overhaul was still sitting in the same posture, trying to think who is targeting them.

[1:00 AM]
In a dark alley, three figures can be seen talking about something.
"Check your walkie-talkies and gears, you two. La Brava, can you hear me?"-Shido
Knuckleduster and Mr. Fantastic started checking their gears.
:: Yes Chief, Connection is well and clear. ::- La Brava
"Okay, keep a look on the movements outside the base, if their is a movement by police or heroes, contact us."-Shido
:: Okay Chief ::-La Brava
Shido, then looked towards Knuckleduster and Mr. Fantastic. Knuckleduster was in his usual costume but the new thing was the Pump Shotgun in his hands. Shido has given this to Knuckleduster. This Shotgun is with unlimited ammo and no reload. System has a Gang Members list which contains the name of the recruited members.
[Gang Members]
1. Danjuro Tobita (-)
2. Manami Aiba (-)
3. Iwao Oguro (-)
(The minus sign(-) next to the names is to remove the member from the team/Gang.)
This means System acknowledges them as the members, thus they are able to use the effects of cheats. This was only possible because they are recruited by Shido which somehow connects them to System. He has experimented by removing Knuckleduster from the list and then giving him the gun, but it only works as a normal Shotgun. This gives a new insight that System can affect the people connected to it.
Mr. Fantastic was also in his usual costume but with an anonymous mask.
"All set?"-Shido
Both of them nodded their heads.
"Let's go"-Shido
:: All the Best Guys and Gentle, be safe!! ::-La Brava
Sound of La Brava came from the walkie-talkie. Even though Danjuro changed his alias from Gentle Criminal to Mr. Fantastic, she still calls him Gentle.
Three of them dashed out of the alley, running towards the Yakuza base which is now heavily guarded by the Yakuza members (Normal Thugs).
"No need to care for the lives of them, if they are in the way, just kill them."-Shido
"You too La Brava, Don't hesitate to pull the trigger if anyone approaches you."-Shido said this in the walkie-talkie. He gave a pistol to La Brava with unlimited ammo and no reload for her protection, thus making her less vulnerable.
:: I will keep that in mind Chief. ::-La Brava
As they were close to the entrance of the base, some thugs noticed them. Shido took out two UZIs from his inventory, while aiming them towards the thugs.
"Hasta la Vista, motherfuckers."
