Chapter 2: …makes the great Hero.
.
In the Forge, Izuku was waiting for the capsule housing the newest armed and armored suit of his: the Agile Aegis Armor Model 6/Warmaker Line Mark I.
This model was mainly black with some dark gray parts, a very bulky, armored and heavily armed armor, it's tall, making the wearer as tall as Muscular and because of Izuku's way much smaller frame, he could take one thin teen or two preteen passengers inside the cockpit part. Very tough and heavy, this suit weighs six hundred kilograms, the wearer is eighty-one in the comparison. Also the behemoth houses multiple Trapiche Reactors: one to move the suit, one to fuel the weapon systems, one for the back-mounted thruster system/jetpack equipment, one to power the Heartbreaker Repulsor, one for the energy defense and two for each of the massive shoulder weapons.
The arsenal, oh boy. Next to the standard repulsor weaponry added: two dual sonic blasters in the shoulders, sonic repulsors in the TR cannons, forearm-mounted, retractable dual rocket launchers, retractable laser cannons with six rounds each, retractable wrist blades, retractable dual machine guns on each wrist, two War Hammer named batons based on the one from the MCU's Civil War movie, 3x2 micro-missile launchers on each shoulders with six salvo, 2x3 capture foam micro-missile launchers below the aforementioned ones, forearm-mounted flamethrowers, forearm-mounted circular energy shields, a force field based energy shield, retractable grappling hooks in the wrists, retractable capture web launchers in the forearms and three in each shoulders, shoulder mounted sonic blasters, these also work as a pair of boomboxes or extra loudspeakers, on the back were extra micro-missile launchers with 4x3 load, and a six barreled minigun on the shoulder moving on a small track, witch this it could change position between the two shoulders, and on the "backpack" were six additional weapons. These were two retractable, larger laser cannons peeking above each shoulder, two 3x6 missile launchers in similar way, these were the farther from the helmet unless the minigun were somewhere near and two behemoths for each side: on the right was the massive, but still manageable sized Proton Cannon, after the Heartbreaker on this suit the strongest weapon wielded and could be detached to be hold by a smaller suit for extra firepower and the left had the similar looking IMCP, for long the Ion Missile Cannon Platform, basically a nine barreled gatling gun firing projectiles similar to the Proton Torpedoes in nature.
Currently this armor held the strongest suit title from Izuku's armory, well, until he finishes the CAM project of his.
After flying out, the walking tank patrolled on the streets, because of the weapon storage system, it didn't look that much armed. However, to the Villains, especially to the lower level ones, it was a nightmare to meet. The boy easily scared those into surrender juts by appearing.
Moving into another area, in fact the Nighteye Agency's reach, the young Midoriya detected Centipeder in the night as he realized that no one could recognize the teen behind the suit.
"Good evening Centipeder." greeted the "taller" patroller the Sidekick, who jumped slightly.
"Who? Oh. Good evening." greeted back the surprised man as he analyzed the bigger talker, then he asked. "Who are you?"
"Call me War Machine." replied the boy with a sarcasm.
"Sure big guy." exclaimed the older person. "I asked seriously."
"Big, heavily armed just like a war machine." continued the teen his snark.
"Okay Robot Hero." retorted the insect-like Pro when he got a call and left.
'Alone again, at least he "got" a name.' thought Izuku as he moved on in his patrol.
.
Back in the present, Izuku was shocked to see a child both that terrified and badly neglected. Quickly checking some database, he was even more surprised to find nothing about her.
"Hey." called her attention. "Do you have a name?" he asked from the little girl.
"Eri." she replied frightenedly and to her shock the hugging person to her view devoured her. However, inside she met with a teen with green hair and eyes, who smiled and hugged her warmly.
"It's okay. I am here. I came to save you. I won't let anyone hurt you." told her the boy, although he was worried what might could happen next.
"Did the metal man eat you too?" asked him the confusedly the adorable child, to her this was a very new experience among the fact he met with someone who was nice and kind with her for the first time she remember.
"No, he didn't. To tell the truth. I make the "metal man" move. This is a big armor made for protecting others." explained to her Izuku the most simplified way and he introduced himself to her. "I am Midoriya Izuku, but you can call me as Izuku or Izu."
"Izu, will you stop him?" asked again Eri with worry and fright in her voice, before the teen could answer, a man showed up outside.
"Hey, big man. Did you see a small girl with a horn and a worn dress?" asked him Overhaul behind his mask, from the girl's bandages and her appearance and the man's look Izuku quickly realized what's going on and he was angry. So much, that his suit's lights turned red.
"Easy." tried the criminal to reassure him, he didn't know about the behind of scenes to this "being".
"Easy? Were you easy on Eri-chan too?" retorted back angrily the boy inside his armor. "How much did you used your Quirk on her? How much blood you took from her? What's for? The profit? Fun?"
"Pardon?" now the man was confused and started to be scared. On one side was him, with his Quirk and on the other was the metallic bruiser with a lot fury and an unknown Quirk, unless it was something else.
"YOU ARE FROM THE SHIE HASSAIKAI! YOU TAINTED ITS NOBLE NAME! YOU DID HURT AN INNOCENT CHILD FOR YOUR PROFIT! YOU! ARE! GOING! TO! PAY!" roared the red, glowing eyed "brute".
"We'll see." said Overhaul as he used his Quirk on the larger "man" or he thought it worked. "What?"
"Your Quirk is solid contact based. You can't disassemble nor reassemble an energy barrier around the desired object of your touch." revealed Izuku to the Villain's shock coldly and full of tranquil fury as he illuminated the previously unseen "skintight" shield, that was like a red aura.
"How did you?" now Chisaki was utterly terrified.
"What do you think? Am I stupid enough to not be prepared for Quirks like yours? Tonight your Yakuza going down permanently." replied to him the teen inside from his suit, Eri was only watched in a little confusion before she started to fall asleep.
"I. AM. A. HERO. I. WON'T. LET. THE. INNOCENTS. BEING. HURT. BY. PEOPLE. LIKE. YOU." finished the boy his rant as he soothed Eri to sleep. "Sleep little Eri-chan, you need that. I'll make sure he won't touch you ever again." told her as he fired the Heartbreaker at lethal mode, the blast disintegrated the asshole victim then he went on a silent rampage on the Shie Hassaikai.
.
Two guard watched the gate form the main building's entrance when that gate was break half by something's punch.
"What the hell?" asked one of them from his partner.
"Probably a reckless Vigilante." replied the another, he wielded a gun, which was fired twice, both times hit something in the dust, they heard two audible sound. One of the worst sounds ever in their lives. The sound of ricocheting bullets on something bulletproof. Then they've heard heavy steps. Angry, heavy steps.
"Is it All Might?" asked frightenedly the shooter.
"Are serious? He might bulletproof, but he is not a chrome champion." answered his mate as he tried to call reinforcements, when a tall, black, metallic and humanoid machine monster with glowing eyes appeared from the dust. Even its chest glowed red.
"Oh god." murmured the previously gun using guard as he threw away his weapon to use his Quirk, he could break metal in small areas on an object. The metal brute didn't stop, nor anything happened as it marched to them. "Shit! My Quirk isn't working!" he swore.
The reinforcements caller gulped loudly as the unstoppable robot still marched to them and from a quick thing, he raised his open hand and fired a small fireball in the size of a golf ball. In response the he earned a "Seriously?" or "Cute." glance as the walking tank raised his open hand to respond with his energy blast, the red projectile left a fairly big hole in the "defender's" chest. And continued to move to the metal manipulator, who tried to flee, only to get one lethal blast into his back like his fellow earlier.
Quickly the Garbage Trio appeared from the main building's door, Tabe's charge was useless, his teeth couldn't get through the protective barrier which countered his Quirk, then he got punched into his face, in the end his head flew off.
"Any idea?" asked Hojo from Setsuno, his remaining teammate.
"My Quirk is useless." replied his partner as the brute charged at the invader, only the latter opened his shoulder held micro-missile launchers.
"Bummer." this was the big guy's last words before the duo got blasted into bits by the missiles.
No Yakuza member could do anything against the attacker, the latter was unstoppable, it countered their tries to slow it down, to overwhelm with numbers or trap him in a room courtesy of Mimic's Quirk. However, all of these were in vain: the machine never slowed its march, only paused for fire a more precise attack, the stronger offensive Quirks couldn't dent the armor either, or putting it into a closed room worked as he blasted out from it.
"Are you kidding with me?" yelled Mimic after the seventh time the metal monster busted out from a trap room. Until he saw a massive red through the wall where he hid. "Oh crap."
He couldn't escape from the right shoulder or backpack mounted massive energy beam firing weapon from the enemy, who just continued the massacre without a beat.
Deidoro's Sloshed had no effect on the thing, Nemoto couldn't make it talk either, they both got killed ease with separate energy blasts.
The massive Rikiya Katsukame tried to wrestle the metal beast down, his try didn't work for the fact his opponent was even stronger, and he couldn't drain his stamina either. The brute was finished with a powerful chest beam.
Rappa and Tengai stood on the corridor, where the comatose Boss' room was too, they've heard the weapons and the horror of their comrades. Chronostasis quickly joined into their company.
"What's going on?" asked the former MMA fighter from the assistant of Overhaul.
"An unknown kind of battle robot attacking us. It's killing our defending forces left and right. From the stronger fighters were the only ones. And Overhaul is nowhere." replied to him the white robed man.
"Bet he was among the first ones to die." said the big guy.
"Where is your respect?" asked him back the other two.
"C'mon. He can't even fight." answered them the blood knight a little before a loud crash came from the corridor's door. And they've seen the black monolith of brute.
"Rappa wait!" tried Tengai to warn his companion, despite their differences, they could get along somehow as the named one charged the newly arrived foe.
Rappa's fists met with a red, spherical barrier or shield, similar of Tengai's and his attacks only bounced off or absorbed by the defensive move.
"Seriously? Attack back!" yelled the fighter as he stepped back for another salvo of punches, when the shield turned off. "Hell yeah!"
The second combo met with the boxing block of the robot, who didn't even budge to it.
"Are you kidding with me?" cried Chrono.
"You're strong! C'mon! Hit me!" exclaimed Rappa and he earned a strong haymaker into his face, throwing him back to his allies.
"I was on guard. This guy is strong like me or even stronger. Awesome." the brawler was ecstatic from the joy, until he saw the chest's light glow brighter. "Ugh oh."
"I agree." commented Hekiji Tengai calmly.
"Barrier!" screamed Chronostasis as the Barrier Quirk owner instantly rose the strongest barrier he could make.
"Rappa, stay back." warned him the still calm member of the Shie Hassaikai.
"You better make that strong. Cause we're going to be toast." shouted to him the brawler and they saw as a large beam of energy broke out of the chest light, this beam eclipsed the trio in size.
"Great Buddha." Tengai's shocked exclamation was his last word before the red blast engulfed them and left nothing behind.
.
Hawks just flew past the Shie Hassaikai Compound when he saw a massive explosion from there bursting out, flying closer he witnessed fleeing Yakuza thugs and a heavily built, black figure with numerous weapons on its shoulders, among them two massive guns.
"Holly chickens! What is that guy's Quirk? Arsenal?" he was shocked from the sight, much less than the quickly killed thugs'. When the brute seemingly finished his work, he flew away.
"Let's see if he left something behind. But first I use my Quirk for this." declared the Pro as he sent some feathers into the remnants of the building. "This "War Machine" killed everyone, minus a guy on life support and destroyed a lot of property, most of them crime related. It'll be better if I report this to Sir Nighteye, this is his area."
Near instantly Hawks flew to the latter Pro's Agency, for his luck, Sir Nighteye had a downtime for some reason, and for fun, he flew in the open window.
"What the?" asked the shocked Nighteye when the winged Hero entered his Office.
"Good evening pal. Do you know what the birds sang to me?" greeted him Keigo Takami as he tried to hold back his laugh.
"Evening. What do you want?" it seems Mirai Sasaki was in a bad mood.
"I know you're in a downtime, but somebody or something just destroyed the Shie Hassaikai. I bet they left barely any evidence." told him the flier.
"Sure." replied the analytic Hero grumpily until the message sank in. "WHAT!" his mood switched so fast, the messenger nearly doubled over both in shock and laugh.
"God! You nearly sounded like All Might." commented the recovering Takami as he rereported what he found. "I was passing by when I saw a humongous explosion and witnessed a something in black and armed like a war machine massacred the whole gang and destroyed most of their fortune. Only an old guy on life support left."
"Are you kidding with me? They own several warehouses or compounds in Japan." retorted back Nighteye.
"Unless that thing or whoever is it doesn't find them." said Hawks.
"What?" This threw Sasaki's thoughts of the loop. "You don't know the responsible person's identity?"
"This responsible can be a machine or a robot too. It was armed with numerous weapons: guns, missile launchers, two even bigger guns and maybe other arms. Oh and it can fly too. If it a person, then he got a weird Quirk if it a man, it can be even a woman. It's possible it got a great durability and physical strength. If it is a person, the they can't be a Hero. A Vigilante like this guy surpasses the Flame Hero in brutality and possibly in firepower too. And if it a Villain, then we're screwed." Hawks revealed his thoughts about the destroyer.
"Wait. One war machine?" asked back Nighteye, his idea was just as terrifying as the reporter's: robot with heavy weapons, armor and intellect to match most Pros.
"For a robot, this being is fairly humanoid, also it had glowing red eyes and a chest light." replied Hawks.
"A chest light on its chest? That can be a dangerous energy weapon." noted the former Sidekick.
"The only person known to own something like that is Midoriya Izuku's Agile Aegis Armors, but those are glowing green." said the winged Pro.
"I hope this thing is not made from his tech against the law." wished Nighteye frightenedly.
"No one can get his technology. The kid is smart, plus the Akatani Industries supervises him. However, it can be that this thing just gained sentience." claimed the Wing Hero.
"I wish this isn't the case." wished again Mirai Sasaki.
