"Can't let you do that, Star Fox!" Midoriya recited as he watched Eri play Star Fox 64 on a little T.V in the monitoring room.
"Izuku, you're on in 5 minutes." Aizawa said.
"Annoying bird! I'm the great Leon!" Eri yelled as she somersaulted over Star Fox. "What the heck?!"
"Yeah, I should go." Midoriya said as he stood up, "I'll be back later Eri."
"O-Oh... umm..."
"What is it?"
"Can you... not hurt Shiozaki?"
...
...
"Eri I don't want to hurt her either, but if I don't then she'll get mad. She'll think I'm going easy on her."
"Oh... so she's a masochist?" She asked which made Izuku's eyebrow twitch.
"Now where... or who did you hear that word from?"
"Umm... a boy with weird purple hair, and a boy with yellow hair and a weird black stripe?"
'I'm going for them the hardest.' Midoriya thought before kneeling in front of Eri, "Don't say that word ever again, it's a bad word. And no, she's not... that word. She just wants to be the best hero she can be, so she'll want me to go all out so she will know where to improve on."
"Ohh... okay." Eri said, looking slightly confused, but understood the basic message.
"Anyway, I'm going to go."
"Never give up!" Eri called out.
...
...
"Trust your instincts."
...
"Tokage, Koda what's the status of the enemy?" Monoma asked through the walkie talkie Yaoyorozu made for everyone.
"He's just standing there... menacingly." Tokage responded.
"Koda said he's mumbling to himself." Shoji responded.
"Birds, Koda is using his power for recon, not bad. No one would suspect random birds."
"Stay focused. Thanks to Shiozaki we know what Quirks he has, and Asui said he has some weird black tentacle Quirk." Yaoyorozu responded.
"T-Tentacle?" Mineta said with a shiver.
"Stop being a pervert, our summer is on the line." Jirou chastised.
"R-Rig-"
"If you can hear this... get out of the buildings."
"W-What?!"
*FWOOSH*
Tokage looked up to see Midoriya shooting up into the air, only for him to expand and clench his right fist, and with a massive explosion from his left started to hurtle towards the ground.
"EVERYONE DUCK! HE'S DOING TO DESTROY EVERYTHING!"
But it was too late...
*BOOOOOOM*
That punch sent a massive shock wave all throughout the faux city, buildings decimated and crumbled into rubble. And in the middle of the devastation was Midoriya who rolled his neck.
"H-How... are you so powerful?" Tokage grunted as the rest of the students slowly got out of the wreckage.
"Come on heroes... don't you want to stop this villain from destorying any more cities?" Midoriya asked as Iida shot up instantly.
"Of course! This attack only tickled us!"
'Good...' Midoriya thought before cracking his knuckles, "Seven minutes... Seven minutes is all I can spare to play with you."
"We'll beat you in six!" Iida yelled as he crouched down.
'He's busting out his Recipro already? That must mean...'
"RECIPRO-BURST!" Iida yelled as he rushed at Midoriya with speeds greater than normal, landing a clean hit on Midoriya.
"Good shit Iida!" Awase yelled.
"You changed your muffler already huh?" Midoriya asked, barely coating his skin with steel in time.
"That's right villain!" Iida yelled, "You gave us 7 minutes to play... well I can use my Recipro Burst for 10 whole minutes!" 'At the cost of losing any and all control... but he does not need to know that!'
'Impressive. But...'
*Whirrrrr*
"Keep him boxed Iida!" Sen Kaibara yelled, his arms and legs spinning rapidly.
'They're working together, good.' Midoriya thought before using Metal Claws and Gyrate as well to intercept his drill, "But a two on one won't be enou-"
*Clink*
"But they aren't alone in this struggle." Yanagi said as she and Kodai stood next to each other. Yanagi tossed numerous pieces of rubble at Midoriya while Kodai grew them. As this was happening, Iida grabbed Kaibara and ran away.
"Try to dodge this onslaught Midoriya!"
Midoriya just took a deep breath and blew out a solid air wall that barely withstood the projectiles. "I don't need to-"
*Fwip*
"You should have." Shoji said as he wrapped his arms around Midoriya's body.
...
...
"This cannot be all planned, you're just jumping in when you see an opportunity correct?"
"... We expected you to dodge not use Tsuburaba's Solid Air. This was slightly improvised."
"I see." Midoriya said before using 50% of One for All to pry himself out of Shoji's grasp, before sprouting his own Dupli-Arms. "But let's see how strong you are."
"I accept your challenge!" Shoji yelled as they locked arms in a test of strength with neither side giving an inch.
'He's contesting with me, even with 50% of One for All. Sure I'm tired from unleashing that attack to remove their possible hiding locations, but that in and of itself is impressive.'
"Thanks for the assist, mon ami!" Aoyama yelled as he aimed a Navel Laser at Midoriya's back, only for Midoriya to drag Shoji in front of the blast. "Ghh!" Aoyama grunted with fear as he moved the laser narrowly out of the way.
"You're learning how to angle your blasts, not bad-"
*Fwip*
"Best pay attention!" Shoji yelled as he gripped Midoriya's arms.
*Pop Pop Pop*
"I am." Midoriya replied as he popped off his arms, "Now I would appreciate it if you gave those ba-"
*Pop*
A lone mushroom sprouted on Midoriya's nose, "... Komori."
"That's my name don't wear it out!" She exclaimed as she sprayed the area with her squirt guns.
"Not sure what the purpose of this is-"
*Thud*
"To distract you duh!" A pile of mushroom yelled as it tackled Midoriya onto the ground.
"Hagakure, you laid on the ground to get mushroomized." He muttered as he flipped her off of him.
"Yup, but it doesn't do much after one use, so I'll let him do all the talking now."
"Who-"
"GRAAH!"
"Shishida!" Midoriya yelled as Shishida, in his beast form shot through the ground and grabbed Midoriya. 'The ground... Honenuki.'
"You're going down!" Shishida yelled as he slammed Midoriya on the ground 5 times before tossing him away like a rag doll.
'His strength is intensified, at the cost of him going feral. One of the main reasons why I skipped his power. Regardless...' Midoriya thought, before he got on all fours and transformed into a dog, "You must be stopped, how about beast against beas-"
"Kerpleh!" Something pink and slimy wrapped around Midoriya's torso as he was flung away, "Can't let you dwindle our forces Midoriya." Asui commented as 37 of them stood in front of Midoriya, and Iida was running laps around them.
"... Seems I underestimated how much of a nuisance it is to fight 39 people at once." He said, as a giant ice wave flew at Midoriya.
"You've underestimated us!"
*SMASH*
"And it seems I overestimated your competence, Shoto Todoroki." Midoriya grunted as he smashed the ice like it was nothing, receiving a death glare as a result.
*Beep* *Beep*
"7 minutes is up. Guess playtime is over." Midoriya said as he spread his arms.
"Stop him!" Kamakiri yelled, gaining the attention of the others, "He's going to use his form!"
"Too late."
*FWOOSH*
"Shit! We need to plan now!" Kamakiri yelled as Midoriya started to transform slowly on purpose to give them time to counter.
"Icyhot, use your fucking fire!" Bakugou yelled.
"No, I refuse-"
"If I fucking fail because your stupid ass decided to be a stubborn bitch, then I will personally beat you until you instinctively use your fire." Bakugou threatened.
"Shut-"
"GUYS!" Kendou yelled, snapping the two out of their argument, "We have NO TIME for in fighting!" She snapped before looking at Shiozaki, "Any other tips we need to know?"
"Nothing we do not already know. He has all of us covered, whether he wants to defeat us through brute force, or use Thirteen's Black Hole and eliminate our projectiles." Shiozaki stated.
"So it's impossible?!" Kaminari yelled.
...
...
Shiozaki's eyes widened with realization, "We're going about this all wrong."
"He's almost done!" Kamakiri yelled.
"What do you mean, we're going about this all wrong?" Yaoyorozu asked.
"He only used a few Quirks during the seven minutes he gave us, he used I believe 7. Out of the 47 he has access to." Shiozaki explained, "And he's transforming very slowly, during the Sports Festival, he transformed in a few seconds, and here he's been transforming for almost a minute."
"Get to the point!" Sero exclaimed as the final hand popped out of it's socket and pieces of rubble started to float towards him.
"We aren't supposed to defeat him by combat, we need to stall him out."
...
...
*Clap* *Clap* *Clap*
"Bravo, you figured it out." Midoriya commented, "In all honesty, the seven minutes was to see if any of you would have figured out the true intention of the test. Glad to see one of you figured it out..." Midoriya explained, "However, knowing what you need to do, and being able to do it are completely different things." He stated before cracking his knuckles. "So feel free to try, if you wish to pass-"
*Splish*
"Ghh!" Midoriya grunted as some goop hit his eyes.
"I've learned how to lower the stinginess of my acid, so you're blind Midoriya!" Ashido yelled.
"... While I do not wish to ruin your good feelings, but you should have done this before I transformed and activated Jirou's Earphone Jack... being able to hear you all. If anything you made my Earphone Jacks more effective-"
*BOOOM*
"GAH!" Jirou and Midoriya yelled as they covered their ringing ears.
"Stop screwing around and fight us!" Bakugou yelled.
"... Fine." Midoriya said before getting in a fighting stance, "I said playtime was over..."
*Fwoosh*
"Meaning, the projectile users are first." Midoriya said as he rushed towards Kodai and Yanagi, "And you two will be the biggest threats to me-"
"Hell no!" Kirishima yelled as he stood in front of them, bracing for the upcoming impact, "I'll protect them!"
*WHAM* *FWOOSH* *SLAM*
...
...
"What's wrong? I thought you were going to protect them?" Midoriya asked, Tsunotori moved in to attack, only for Tetsutetsu to stop her.
"Let him finish." He whispered.
"I thought you wanted to protect them? Be a man and protect those who need your help? If one punch at 30% of my power is enough to stop you... then you won't accomplish much." Midoriya said, before pulling back a punch, "But, it's not my pro-"
*Skid*
"Don't you dare hurt them!" Ashido yelled as her hands started to steam from her acid, "Don't think I'm not willing to hurt you."
*Fwish*
"And don't think I'm not willing to open my eyes, even with your acid coating them." Midoriya replied, activating Erasure, even with the Acid stinging his eyes, and pulling back for a punch, "But I'm glad you jumped in the way, taking out 3 will make my workload easier!"
"NO!" Kirishima yelled as he ran in front of Midoriya's punch, taking the brunt of it to the face, "I-I won't give in!" Kirishima yelled as he pushed against Midoriya's fist, "I'll be a wall! And protect others!"
"Then I'll have to smash that wall!" Midoriya yelled as he pulled back a fully expanded steel fist and prepared to strike.
"LIKE HELL YOU WILL!" Kirishima yelled before he clenched his fists and flexed his entire body, "HAAAAAH!" His body grew sharper and more ridged, from his arms, to his chest, to his air and eyes. Every square inch of his body was hardened way past it's limits, as he pulled back a punch of his own. "This is when my Quirk is pushed beyond it's maximum. I call it... Red Riot: Unbreakable!"
"Is that a fact... or mere hyperbole?!"
"HAAAH!"
*WHAM* *Fwoosh*
The impact of their punches sent a mini shock wave, neither side is giving an inch.
...
...
*Crack*
"I apologize Red Riot. But I can't afford to let you continue!" Midoriya yelled as he broke through Kirishima's 'Unbreakable', and sent him flying back.
*Poof* *Rustle*
Only for a clone to appear to catch him. "M-Midoriya?"
"You've done well, if you had faced any one other than me... you would have won most likely."
"S-So does that mean... I'm manly?" Kirishima asked... before passing out.
...
...
"You are already manly, you stubborn fool."
...
"K-Kirishima-"
"Stay focused on the enemy that's in front of you."
"Aah-"
*Whack* *Whack* *Wham*
Midoriya swiftly knocked out Ashido, Yanagi, and Kodai with a swift chop to the neck. Once they fell onto the ground Midoriya created another clone, "Take them to Recovery Girl."
"Got it." Clone Midoriya replied as he lifted the three of them up and walked towards the exit. As this was happening Midoriya created a rag to wipe his eyes.
"Now, 33 remain. Whose next-"
*Shink*
"HAA!"
*Clang*
"I was wondering when you would attempt it Kamakiri."
"You had me scared shit-less when you transformed not gonna lie." Kamakiri said before creating a blade from his chest, "But if I can burn even a few seconds, it's fine with me."
"Admirable... but mistaken." Midoriya replied, before swinging an arm blade at Kamakiri, "Because while we have the same Quirk... I'm more skilled with a bla-"
*FWOOSH* *WHAM*
"Will you all let me finish a statement?!" Midoriya exclaimed as Iida tackled him away with his Recipro Burst.
"I'm afraid that's not going to happen villai-"
*Kcchzt* *Kcchzt* *Pew*
...
...
"So 10 minutes is your limit..." Midoriya commented, as Iida threw out a punch.
"I can still fight-"
*Fwip*
"Not very well. You've done a lot with those 10 minutes." Midoriya said before chopping Iida's neck and created a clone. "Take him to Recovery Girl." He ordered as the clone carried Iida away. '34 lef-'
*FWOOSH* *SMASH*
"Did you not listen to me earlier?" Midoriya asked Todoroki, who still used his ice.
"Shut up." Todoroki growled as he sent an ice wave at Midoriya... you can guess the outcome.
"This is wasting time, are you going to use your fire or not?"
"Hell no!"
"Then no point in prolonging this."
*Fwoosh* *Whack*
"Ghh."
*Thud*
"... What a waste." Midoriya muttered as he created another clone, "Take him away." The clone didn't respond as he carried the unconscious Todoroki away, immediately a yellow haired boy jumped in front of him.
"At close range none of the others will get hurt!" Kaminari yelled as he gripped Midoriya's shoulders, "Indiscriminate Shock! 1.3 Million Volts!"
*BZZZT*
...
...
"I can't really fault you too much for doing a suicidal action, considering there are 33 of you left and only 1 villain. But acknowledge that that idea might not be a good one when you become pro."
"Whau?" Kaminari, now brain fried, groaned with confusion.
"You seem to have forgotten... I have your Quirk as well. But you must not have learned that electric attacks won't affect me, in fact electric attacks make me more energized. Like the ability Motor Drive in Pokemon." He said, before knocking him out and having another clone carry him away.
'We're dropping like flies.' Ojirou thought bitterly, before clenching his fists, 'Guess I have to go beyond... Plus Ultra!' "HAAAH!" Ojirou jumped and swung his tail at Midoriya, only for him to block it.
"You're over reliant on standard attacks, you have a tail use it creatively." Midoriya critiqued, as he blocked Ojirou's onslaught.
'Creatively? How do I- Wait... I have an idea.' Ojirou thought as he pulled back for a downward swipe.
"Predictable." Midoriya replied as he dodged the swipe.
*Slap*
"Are you sure?" Ojirou asked as he stood on his hand and spun rapidly, 'I don't know how Ashido does it... but this could help a little bit.'
'Capoeira. That is different and unique, and would work well with his tail being another thing for his opponent to dodge. Impressive.' Midoriya thought before grabbing his tail, making him collapse onto the ground "But you're still stiff, it's clear it was a spur of the moment decision."
"Y-You didn't give me time to practice." He stuttered trying to wiggle his tail out of Midoriya's grasp... and failing.
"But you should." Midoriya said before placing his hand on Ojirou's mouth, pink mist started to flow out. "For now... you've done your part. Now sleep."
*Thud* *Snore*
With Somnambulist, Ojirou fell fast asleep. '... How many was it? Damn it I lost count-'
*Splash*
"L-Let him go!" Bondo yelled as he covered Midoriya's legs with his Cemendine.
"As you wish."
*Fwoosh*
Midoriya threw Ojirou's sleeping body into Bondo. Once Bondo caught his sleeping body Midoriya broke through the Cemendine and rushed at him, "But in a battle of this scale... you should know that casualties are inevitable!"
*Wham*
"Ghh..."
*Thud*
'Down goes Bond-'
*Beep* *Beep*
"... 10 minute warning." Midoriya said before looking at the remaining students, "You have 10 minutes to beat me. If you have any last minute tricks then now would be the best time to use the-."
"Ready?!" Tetsutetsu asked, as Satou in his buffed out form lifted him with ease.
'Zero Gravity with Tetsutetsu's Steel and Satou's strength... that could only mean.'
"Team attack! Hyper Missile Strike!" Tetsutetsu yelled as Satou flung him at Midoriya with all of his might.
*FWOOSH*
"I'll just dodg-"
*Fwoop* *Fwoop* *Fwoop*
"Not if I have anything to say about it Midoriya!" Mineta yelled as he threw numerous balls at Midoriya's legs, rendering him immobile.
'Impressive coordination.'
"HAAH!"
*CLANG*
"But not enough." Midoriya, activating Steel at the last moment, withstood the Hyper Missile Strike.
"W-What?!" Tetsutetsu asked before Midoriya grabbed his floating body.
"And now... time to return to sender!"
*FWOOSH*
"Ha- Haaah! U-Uravity! Take off the gravity!"
"R-Right!" She yelled before touching her finger tips, "R-Release!"
*Thud* *Skiiid*
"T-Tetsutetsu!"
*Fwoosh*
'This Quirk is... really annoying. I see why Shota kept him, regardless of his... habits.' Midoriya thought as he used Black Hole to suck up the balls attached to his legs. "So I'll have to eliminate you quickly-"
*FWANG*
"Special Move! Weldcraft!" Awase yelled as he stood in front of Midoriya.
"If you think this will stop me-"
"I don't, but it will keep your overpowered ass on the ground..."
*WHAM* *WHAM*
"For Shoda to use his Quirk on you." Awase explained as Shoda punched Midoriya in the stomach once, utilizing his Twin Impact to hit him once again.
'Seems they're taking the 10 minute warning to heart, and finally working together. Took a while, but better late than nev-'
"Boom Boom!" Midoriya turned to see Manga Fukidashi, who created two explosions from his speech bubble head right in Midoriya's face.
"Ghh! Okay... this is getting a bit ridiculous." Midoriya muttered as he broke free from the steel bindings and punched Fukidashi in the stomach.
"Blarg!" He groaned... as the word blarg fell onto the ground in the form of a weird slime.
"Now who-"
"Dark Shadow!" Tokoyami yelled as he stood in front of Midoriya.
"Tokoyami... I was wondering when you would decide to fight me."
"Midoriya. I apologize that our battle took a long time, the others jumped in before me." Tokoyami apologized, as Dark Shadow stood up front, "But I must let you know, that I'm not as weak as I was before."
"I would be very upset if you were." Midoriya said, as he reverted back to his normal form. 'No point in keeping that form up.' He thought as he brought out Dark Midoriya, "Let's get star-"
*Fwong* *Fwip*
"You were distracted, fellow user of the darkness."
"Kurorio, I should have known this was a trap." Midoriya grunted as he elbowed Kurorio's side before flipping him onto the ground.
"Ghh-"
"It would seem that you're like Tokoyami, lacking strength." Midoriya explained before lifting him by the neck, "Until you improve your body you won't succeed with that against anyone else."
*Chop*
"Ghh..." Midoriya knocked out Kurorio, setting him onto the ground before looking at Tokoyami.
"You used my trust for your benefit... not bad."
*Fwoosh*
"I suppose we could fight another time." Midoriya bartered before knocking out Tokoyami, "Now, who is nex-"
*Clank* *Clank* *Clank*
"Surrender Midoriya." Yaoyorozu said, as 3 cannons were aimed directly at Midoriya, "You're powerful, but 3 fully loaded cannons will not be painless."
*Tap*
"Especially since I've softened the ground." Honenuki said, before he removed his foot off of the ground, hardening the ground. 'He can soften the ground since he has my Quirk.' "Hurry Yaoyorozu!"
"Right!" She yelled as she pulled the 3 strings, "FIRE!"
*Boom Boom Boom*
'We got hi-'
*Fwish* *Tsss*
"I commend your plan, if it were used against anyone else it would have worked." Midoriya said, as he melted the cannon balls. 'There isn't much time left... and I believe 9 students haven't done much of anything to fight me. So what are they waiting for-"
*Pew Pew Pew*
Midoriya swiftly turned around to block numerous scales that flew his way.
"Damn it, so close." Tsuburaba muttered, "Guess we should giv-"
*Fwip*
"Solid Air with your Scales. You both used Yaoyorozu and Honenuki's trap to set it up."
*Shink* *Fwip*
"Not to mention Tsunotori has the instincts to attack while I was talking." Midoriya stated, which made the assailant 'eep' with surprise.
"Y-You're supposed to be the villain... why are you giving us advice?" Rin asked.
"If I had the mindset of being the villain and beating all of you... then this exam would have been over 20 minutes ago. YOU are supposed to treat me like a villain, and I'M supposed to make sure you gain something from this." 'And I almost did that job perfectly, if not for a certain someone...'
*Click* *Click*
"Then you should pay attention!" Jirou yelled from behind him.
*Fwip*
As Sero taped Rin out of Midoriya's loose grip. "Do it!"
"Take this Midoriya!" Jirou yelled as she sent a massive sound wave towards Midoriya, who just stood there and took it, not appearing phased. "W-What?!"
'I've known Mic for about 10 years, this is nothing compared to his quote unquote hype moments.'
"Nggh, Monoma! I think now is about time to use that big plan of yours!" Kendou yelled as she expanded her fists.
*Crick* *Crack* *CRACK*
"Got it!" Monoma yelled as he sprouted out from the ground, with metal claws on his hands.
'That's Power Loader's Quirk. If I remember correctly, he can copy 3 for 10 minutes...' He thought while dodging Monoma's swipes, 'But how... Power Loader is not anywhere close to here, and leaving the battlefield results in an automatic fail... unless. Nezu altered the rules... that's so him.' "But only having Metal Claws won't defeat me-"
"I'm, well, AWARE!" Monoma yelled right in Midoriya's face.
'M-Mic's Quirk!' Midoriya pieced together as he covered his ears, 'That's two... but what's the 3rd?!'
"Now fall asleep." Monoma said as he pulled off his sleeve, releasing a pink mist.
'Somnambulist, I should have realized he would have picked that one.' Midoriya thought as he placed a hand over his mouth and nose.
"Kendou, get him to release his hand. If he so much as breathes it in he'll fall asleep."
"R-Right!"
"5 minutes, best use your time wisely."
"Grr, what are you guys doing?! We have 5 minutes! Jump in the fight!"
"I don't think so."
*Fwoosh*
Midoriya jumped out of the Somnambulist cloud, and created as many clones as he could spare to fight the others, 'They already had their time to shine, It's up to the remaining 4.'
*BOOM*
"Speaking of."
"Get ready you damn nerd!" Bakugou yelled as he used his explosions to spin around rapidly, "I honed this move during my useless internship with Jeanist! I'm coming back for my medal!"
"Actions will speak louder than words!" Midoriya yelled as he pulled back a 50% punch. As this was happening Kendou ran up to Monoma.
"What do we do?" Kendou asked.
"I don't know! He's going to stay up in the air, I can't get him without knocking out all of you with Somnambulist." Monoma explained.
...
...
"I have an idea."
...
"Prepare to die!" Bakugou yelled as he zoomed towards Midoriya, "Howitzer... IMPACT!"
"NOW KENDOU!" Monoma yelled as Kendou threw him at Midoriya.
'... That decision saved me.' Midoriya thought as he let himself free fall.
"Wai-" Monoma exclaimed, before he noticed Bakugou zooming towards him, "Oh... shit."
*BOOM*
"Monoma!"
"That move was risky."
*Fwoosh* *Slam*
"But you had no choice!" Midoriya yelled as he delivered a swift round house kick to Kendou's jaw, knocking her out instantly. "That leaves..."
*Crack*
"Just one." Midoriya muttered as he saw the last combatant remaining. Ibara Shiozaki.
"I'm the last one remaining, but I know all of your secrets." Shiozaki said as she held one of her vines in her hands.
"Be that as it may..." Midoriya muttered as he pulled out his phone, and held it up with Poltergeist, "You have one minute left. Can you defeat me in that time frame?"
"You lack faith in me."
...
...
"Then show me what you can do." Midoriya challenged as Shiozaki rushed forward vine in hand.
'40 seconds.' Shiozaki thought as she swung her vine at her friend, 'If I have one chance to win... I need to wait at the last moment.'
'She's just swinging her vine... she's planning something.' Midoriya thought as he dodged her swings, '30 seconds, she's planning to do something last minute. But what, capture me with all of her vines? She knows I could destroy those projectiles before they hit me, but if one of them manage to wrap around me... looks like I'll have to see what she does.'
'10 seconds, it's now or never.' Shiozaki thought as she launched every strand of hair at Midoriya.
'Knew it.' Midoriya thought as he used Razor Sharp on his arm and began slashing, until in the corner of his eye, a small green ball flew at him. "What?!" A balled up vine unraveled itself and wrapped entirely around Midoriya right before time expired, as a loud alarm stopped all outside combat.
"Izuku Midoriya has been captured." Principal Nezu said into the intercom, "And right when time expired impressive."
*Snap*
Midoriya torn the vine apart and rolled his neck, "Out of everyone... I'm glad you were the one to defeat me."
"... You went easy on us-"
"That's true I'm not going to deny that." Midoriya answered, "But your attack plan didn't have any flaws as far as I can tell. You used your Quirk in an unorthodox fashion, waited for the last possible moment, knew I would get tired eventually, knew all of my powers minus two new ones I obtained recently but didn't use, you trusted your instincts, and above all else... implemented your hobbies into your arsenal."
...
...
"Okay I got all of them except that one." Tetsutetsu spoke out from the silent crowd, as Shiozaki tugged her hair.
"I... got that idea from the video game I was playing." Shiozaki admitted, much to the slight shock of the others.
"Anyway you'll get debriefed at the dorms on how you did, whether or not you did enough to pass and how you can improve and other variables. For now, go to Recovery Girl and get checked out, because I'm not healing any of you."
...
A few hours later, all 40 of the students sat in the common room as Aizawa and Vlad King stood in front of them. "As you all may know, you've succeeded in defeating Midoriya." Vlad King started.
"At the last possible second, but we'll over look that just this once." Aizawa commented, "Now onto the grading system of the exam. A good chunk of your points will come from whether or not you've actually done something in the exam. If you didn't do anything then it would have been an automatic fail. Luckily, all of you did so we won't go down that road."
"However, doing something, and doing something helpful are two different things." Vlad King interjected, "A lot of you have done a lot on your own, Tenya Iida using all 10 minutes of his Recipro-Burst to hinder Midoriya." He explained... which made Iida smile with pride. "You all also set aside your differences to face a common enemy. Tetsutetsu, Uraraka, and Satou, as well as Honenuki and Yaoyorozu are prime examples."
"However..." Aizawa said before glaring at Todoroki, "Refusing to use your full power, even when lives are at stake, is bad." He said which caused Todoroki to open his mouth, "I don't care what you have to say, if this was a real life scenario, even if it was futile, you ALWAYS give it your all, no ifs ands or buts about it. Because you not giving it your all can and will result in lives being lost... lives you could have saved." Aizawa explained, "So while you did something, you didn't do everything you could."
"And everyone else did?"
"Monoma took a Howitzer to the face, Kaminari made himself stupid in a suicide play, Ojirou learned how to use his Quirk in a more creative way on the spot, Aoyama learned how to angle his laser on the spot, Kirishima pushed his Quirk to the extreme, and Tokoyami lied to Midoriya to gain an advantage. Did I miss anybody?" Aizawa asked... which made Todoroki sit down quietly. "You failed the exam... but luckily for you. You're still going to the summer camp."
...
...
"YOU LIED TO US AGAIN?!" Iida yelled.
"Lie is a strong word... I prefer the word 'Rational Deception'." Aizawa said.
"It would be foolish of us to leave behind a singular student while others progress. And besides none of you failed the written exam luckily." Vlad King explained, "However, you did fail Shoto Todoroki, and as such you will be subjected to remedial lessons ON TOP of your training. Hope this serves as a lesson next time."
Todoroki didn't say anything and just walked away. "Anyway, congratulations to the 38 of you who passed-"
"Wait what was Midoriya's exam?" Ashido asked.
"Huh? Oh right... meh doesn't matter."
"WHAT DO YOU MEAN IT DOESN'T MATTER?!" Ashido asked.
"Unless you all want to fight him again, only this time he has to defeat all of you to pass."
"NO!"
"Hell yeah!"
"36 to 1, sorry Bakugou." Aizawa replied which made him growl in disappointment. "So with that pointless topic out of the way, here's a list of everything you need for the summer camp, if you're not prepared then that's on you do deal with. Are we clear?"
"Yes sir."
"Then enjoy the little summer vacation you have until the Training Camp."
*End of Chapter*
(A/N: Finally this is done! I honestly didn't expect this chapter to be this grueling... the grueling aspect was honestly figuring out how each student could contribute to this exam. I honestly wanted Tokoyami and Bakugou to fight Midoriya, but as I was writing this chapter... I figured that would be best saved for another time. Now onto Todoroki. Honestly I wanted this to be his character development chapter, but then I realized that since Overhaul is dealt with I figured I'd give this chapter to Kirishima and have him figure out Unbreakable earlier than in cannon. But don't worry, Todoroki will get character development, but not right now. Anyway enjoy this mess of a chapter, hopefully the next one won't be as big of a mess.)
