The late afternoon sun washes over the streets of Musutafu, casting long shadows as the former Number One Hero walks with firm, measured steps. The sound of his controlled breathing and the faint creak of his hero suit fill the air. Beside him, a small four-year-old girl, his granddaughter, hops a little to keep pace. Enji stops, lowers himself to one knee to meet her eyes, and his stern expression softens. "And remember, you, you must always stay alert." His voice is gruff but gentle. "Your grandfather will make sure you become the very best, just like your father." His large, calloused hand gives her shoulder a soft squeeze.
