To desperately halt the effects of the Quirk-Destroying Drug, Eraser Head cuts his leg off. Despite this, Shigaraki manages to reach his face, slicing one of his eyes, just as Shoto appears, who had been following Deku and Bakugo, blasting him with a mountain of ice, and further knocked back by Deku. With Eraser unconscious, his Quirk is undone, and Shigaraki begins to regenerate all of his injuries. Meanwhile, the evacuation team overhear of the mass destruction caused by Gigantomachia as he makes a reckless beeline directly toward his master; the rest of the U.A. students in Gunga can only look on in fear at the devastation left in his wake. Shigaraki prepares to finish everyone off, only for his body to suddenly split open, realizing that he was awakened too early. Deku figures out that, just like him, his body can't withstand the power of All For One. At this moment, Deku unlocks the Quirk of the 7th user: Nana Shimura's Float, and combined with Blackwhip pulls Shigaraki into the air and rescues his companions. He proceeds to duel Shigaraki in the air alone while the Heroes recover on the ground, causing Bakugo to get anxious. He recalls a conversation with All Might during their training prior where Bakugo voiced his worries regarding a mystery of one of the One For All users, and admitting his bullying of Deku came from not understanding his unselfish and self-sacrifical attitude. While Deku unleashes the full power of One For All to overwhelm Shigaraki, even despite the damage on his body, Bakugo and Shoto get Endeavor into the air, so he can finish him off for good with a Prominence Burn. As he burns alive, All For One's voice calls out to Shigaraki, his body suddenly releasing an array of Rivet Stabs to knock Endeavor away. "Shigaraki" shoots several Rivets out toward Deku, but with no hesitation, just like Deku did for him before, Bakugo blasts forward, pushing him out of the way and getting stabbed instead.
