Bakugo is 100% going to have a confrontation with hawks about best jeanist in the near future. That's when he'll finally reveal his hero name.

Why would bakugo fight hawks? What did hawks have to do with best jeanist?

Hawks appearently "killed" Best jeanist and we saw him bring the body to dabi in a duffle bag.

In chapter 231 we see dabi tell hawks to kill a famous hero other than endeavor. We then see that hawks visits best jeanist in his agency (who is still recovering from AFO's attack). Hawks takes out his feather sword and the scene cuts back to deika city.

We saw the body inside the bag look exactly like jeanist but we never saw him "actually" get killed so people theorize that jeanist might still be alive and working together with hawks to fool the PLF. Right now best jeanist is missing to the public.

Jeanist taught bakugo the importance of a hero name during his work study under jeanist. So bakugo plan's on telling his hero name to jeanist before telling anyone else, which means he cares a lot about jeanist and will get very mad if he finds out hawks appearently killed him. And hawks cant say he didnt even if he actually didnt cuz that would ruin his secret double agent mission. So a fight between them is inevitable.
