GO!! (GO!! Gō!!?) is the seventieth episode of the My Hero Academia anime and the seventh episode of the fourth season.
Summary
Tenya reassures Izuku he can always talk to his friends.
Izuku, Eijiro, Ochaco, and Tsuyu are in the midst of training. Deadly focused and somewhat brooding, the Work-Study students move with extra precision, garnering the attention of their classmates. Izuku recalls Aizawa reminding them that they can choose not to participate in the upcoming fight against the Yakuza if they so choose. However, all four of them want very badly to rescue Eri and do whatever they can, even if their role is smaller than the Big 3's will be.
At lunch, Izuku seems bothered by the situation wit Eri, as well as his relationship with Sir Nighteye. Tenya notices his friend in need and reminds him if there anything Izuku needs to talk about, he can because they're friends. He uses the same words Izuku said to him back when he was in a dark place before their internships due to the Hero Killer.
Tenya's kind gesture brings Izuku to tears until he stops and tells himself that heroes don't cry. Meanwhile, Heroes from all across Japan continue to investigate all properties connected to the Shie Hassaikai. Two days later, Sir Nighteye makes a break in the case and calls everyone to another conference. He reveals that Eri is being kept in the main hideout underground, and he found out by using his foresight at one of the Yakuza at the toy store who was buying toys for Eri.
The operation to save Eri begins!
The next morning at 8:00 AM, the Police group with all the heroes and break down their plan for the raid. Inside, Overhaul meets with his "Pops", who's in a coma and warns him that things might get a little noisy soon. At 8:30 AM, the operation commences but it gets off to a rocky start when Rikiya Katsukame suddenly bursts through the gate. He greets everyone with his overgrown muscles and Ryukyu transforms into her Dragon form to combat him while everyone else other than her squad rushes to the hideout.
The other Yakuza members don't back down and a battle ensues outside the hideout. While the minor heroes hold them off, Sir Nighteye leads the main charge to the entrance. Meanwhile, Overhaul and Chrono prepare the Eight Expendable Bullets to hold off the heroes until they can escape with Eri and their research.
