However, Edgeshot cautioned Bakugo that he would endure relentless and agonizing pain, which posed challenges for combat. Acknowledging this, Bakugo expressed gratitude towards his senior for granting him the opportunity to persevere.

Soon after, Bakugo redirected his attention towards the ongoing battle, launching a fierce assault against the luminous youngster, strongly suspecting him to be AFO. All Might swiftly verified his suspicion, identifying the child as AFO, and beckoned Bakugo to draw closer. With unwavering confidence, he bestowed upon Bakugo his extraordinary support item, the gauntlet aptly named Great Explosion Murder God Dynamight. A delighted grin spread across Bakugo's face upon hearing the title, swiftly donning and harnessing the power of this formidable support device.
