So say that Nine lucked out and got a type B cell activation quirkLike legitimately at this point of the story, could anyone actually stop him? Could anyone even become strong enough to stop him?
If Nine had succeeded in getting a cell activation quirk… how would the entire plot change?
AnimeOh wow, I didn’t expect Nine to be downplayed this much by the other comments (as of typing this) considering how much damage he alone could do with his weather manipulation unrestrained. If he could make sure he was constantly healthy with the cell activation quirk then i doubt many could stop him at this point of the story. Sending Nomu to stop him probably would not work at all. Nine at the end of heroes rising but with no limit on how much energy he can use is extremely powerful.
Nine’s goal was to make a society based on strength and only strength. His reasoning is that those with power are treated unfairly in society due to circumstances in life and reasons that the strongest should be allowed to be revered and praised, like nature intended with lions or apes. He does this due to both his and his comrades pasts and rejection from society due to being discriminated and now wants to create all of their ideal worlds by destroying g the current one. If they succeed people like chimera would be revered. He’d probably either start destroying chunks of the country and recruit “the strong” to his cause to make a better japan. He alone with his original quirk without any sickness issues can probably destroy a city within half an hour minimum. Not a lot of people can exactly stop him. The heroes witnessing this might assemble a while stroke team to go and try to take him down. Within days he would be a countrywide threat.
Eh, the moment he becomes a threat Star and Stripe would arrive early and absolutely demolish him.
Nine also wouldn’t survive Hawks and Endeavour teaming up against him.
I mean, I don’t think so? The only reason Star came in was because All might, Endeavour and hawks requested it (mainly all might). And that was only after the heroes lost a good chunk of their forces to being hospitalised, dead, retired and quitting, after Japan was already destroyed. I don’t think nine alone would warrant a request from other countries until the heroes numbers start dropping and the country is already ripped apart. She likely won’t suddenly come in just because Nine exists. She’ll probably come in only when it’s actually needed not early on.
Regarding endeavour and hawks, I actually think endeavour is a horrible match up for nine due to his Air shield and his weather manipulation, specifically his rain and tornadoes. Hawks and endeavour flying about might actually not be a great match up against Nine specifically and I can think of other top heroes more suited for taking him on and his 6 quirks he currently had at this point.
I'm pretty sure they asked world governments for help and they said no to try and keep themselves protected as crime was up all over the world. Star and strip came of her own volition after hearing Japan was asking for help.
The government’s only said no after stars death. That was the catalyst and an excuse to do so.
Because they had their own enemies to deal with.
No it definitely wasn't after, it was the whole reason she defied the government. She couldn't have gone against their wishes if their wishes weren't already publicly known. After her death, there is no one left who couldn't even attempt to get close, at least that's the impression they give.
Hawks mentioned it in 303. Star shows up in 329. Just confirmed.
I thought it was said in season 6 that other countries were going to send help, just not immediately, more of a "we are preparing the resources to assist". Stars and Stripes just specifically chose to help japan early before the US was officially ready to send in more help. Then after her death is when all the other countries pulled out and decided not to help
Regarding endeavour and hawks, I actually think endeavour is a horrible match up for nine due to his Air shield and his weather manipulation, specifically his rain and tornadoes.
Nine could also theoretically absorb or restrain the oxygen in the atmosphere on a big radius around Endeavor making him unable to set fire. Also combining it with constant rain and/or snow at the same time, so pretty much yeah Endeavor is cooked agaisnt Nine.
If the Japan suddenly had a super villain like Nine creating storms and blacking out cities, it’s affectively the same scenario the war is in now. Star would come eventually, and when she does, it’s an instant game over for Nine.
Hawks is too fast for Nine, he could run interference and likely slice his vitals while Endeavour acts as a bruiser. Did Nine even create rain? He can manipulate wind and lightning but I don’t remember him making rain.
Nine’s prequel chapter you can see him observing a rainstorm he created
