My Hero Academia Chapter 246

In the secret laboratory of Daruma Ujiko, the doctor prepares to perform an operation on Tomura Shigaraki. Before starting, Daruma asks Tomura why he wants more power, considering that his Quirk Decay has become so powerful that he is literally the destruction incarnate. Tomura replies that he had promised him more power if he met his requirements, so now he is willing to claim his due.

Responding then with more sincerity, Tomura tells Daruma that, although powerful, his Quirk is not infallible and there is always the risk that the enemy survives his attack, just as Re-Destro did during their fight. In addition, when he used his Quirk at full power, he himself was affected by the Decay, leaving his right arm full of scars, so it is not a power he can use as many times as he wants against the Heroes. Therefore, he wants to use everything he has at his disposal to obliterate the drags All Might left behind.

Daruma likes Tomura's proclamations and explains the situation. All the research he did were for All For One's sake. Years ago, he wrote "the Quirk Singularity" theory, according to which, as generations pass and the Quirks combine, they will become increasingly powerful and complicated to the point where nobody will be able to control them anymore, since the human body doesns't evolve quickly enough to keep up this expansive memory, and it is something that he could appreciate from the fourth generation. Nobody took his theory seriously. Nobody except All For One, who with his ability to wield many Quirks, this was a serious issue for him.

Daruma assures Tomura that with this operation he will endure a hellish agony during the next four months, but once he overcome that stage, he will obtain a power much greater than that of All For One, including the One For All, the same Quirk that his master could never obtain for himself.

At the secret base of the Paranormal Liberation Front, Hawks continues to carry out his covert operation to discover the plans and intentions of the organization and of Tomura, however it is a complicated task because he cannot move freely because he is constantly guarded, and there are certain areas where he is not allowed to enter. The president of the Detnerat Company congratulates him for his work in spreading Destro's ideology, while Twice asks Hawks to explain him the contents of the book because he didn't get it.

Meanwhile, in his office at Endeavor Hero Agency, Enji Todoroki has managed to decipher Hawks' warning. Remembering a conversation he had with the Public Safety Commission President, who asked him to help students to gain experience fighting Villains, Endeavor finally understands what he has to do. On the other side, Burnin tells Izuku and Katsuki that since Endeavor only requested Shoto, they will probably working with the Sidekicks. This upsets Katsuki, because he wanted to work with Endeavor; Deku tries to calm him down, and Shoto does not agree with that decision either. At that moment, Endeavor leaves his office and tells three students that he will train them personally.

The chapter ends with Hawks reflecting. He remembers Dabi underestimating the boys for their performance against Starservant, and Hawks thanks him for doing so, considering that he made the right move stealing their glory back there. Hawks really believes that the new generation of Heroes is stronger than ever, and they will play a great role in the fight against villains.
