   Summary

   Bakugo Katsuki died five years ago at Kamino. That’s what the hero commission says. That’s what the public believes. That’s what most of Class 1-A has tried to accept.

   But Todoroki Shouto never stopped hearing explosions in the distance.

   He’s spent years chasing shadows across ruined cities—whispers of a mercenary called Ashbreaker, civilians pulled from rubble by a ghost with red eyes and scorched hands. Every step brings him closer to the truth.

   And when he finds Bakugo, it’s not a reunion.

   It’s a fight for the last piece of him still left to save.
