Chapter 4: Industry mystery and Friendship kindships part 1
Before the next week started, the Cobra Industries have been established. When it started, the newest company joined to the Japanese industry first.
To many skeptical businessman, the new, completely legal and clean company started to earn interest, and quickly.
They didn't bring much new to the market at first, however, they did bring a new line of vehicles: these were efficient, durable, reliable, safe, very energy, maintenance and fuel efficient, on the top they were sold cheaper than their counterparts. Some thought it was a fluke, a hoax. However, those who tried, quickly learned there is no hoax behind it.
This same company also used large and somehow quiet autonomous machines for recycling trash all around the world! Their manufacturing technology was in fact advanced.
Their GPS was on a different level to the previously used one, this was much more precise and reliable.
The Cobra Industries led by Angela DeCobray (the Baroness in incognito, nobody knew that from the outsiders), whose firm simply didn't care much about the newly applying workers, unless they would endanger the security.
Before the week ended, they expanded into other nations and parts of the world: Latin America, USA, China, Africa, Australia, Europe and Russia.
It turned out in a sudden turn of expansion, this company breached into many fields of the industry: they opened schools, hospitals, raising the health care in the poorer nations and sponsoring the Metal Venom a band or team of musicians.
The security was also top notch, including robots, drones and even a private defense force equipped with autonomous tanks!
The Metal Venom, despite their member didn't show up much, especially Kid Commissar or KC for short. His partners, SNAKE, URUTU, VIPER, ADDER, MAMBA, KRAIT and BOIGA made a lot live shows in a contrast with him. Somehow, they slowly started to become popular.
On Monday and after school, Izuku was training with Storm Shadow (who was in civil clothes) in parkour when he saw a lost girl. They were in Musutafu, more specifically in the middle of the Corellias Market.
"Can I help you? Did you get lost?" asked him, they were a quite sharp contrast of each other: the boy was a head shorter to the girl, who wore red, prim and clean dress with red shoes, on the other end was Izuku in a blue jeans with some holes, black and dark green trainers, a navy blue t-shirt with a darker shade of green, comical Cobra logo (when the Cobra Commander saw that, he nearly choked on his breakfast at the double take, after the recovery he laughed hard for a while), and over the t-shirt was a dirty looking dark blue, hooded tracksuit pullover. His dark, green hair with the tints of black is iconic messy, on the contrast the girl's waist long hair is black. Arashikage on the contrary was in a simple black tracksuit. The girl couldn't choose to avoid the fellow four years old, talk with him or runaway. So, she settled at watching him in silence.
"No she isn't." replied a huge man coming to them, the minotaur in tank top was muscular. The boy and his coach quickly figured out the newly arrived one's interest: kidnapping her.
"You're right. Would you leave my sister alone?" countered him the stranger kid, the girl was surprised on the act: the unknown boy just lied to the brute to leave HER alone.
"That's cute." retorted the man and tried squash the child to the ground, if the latter wouldn't dodge the attempt and jumped for a nice shin kick. That move impressed the spectators.
"Listen well big guy!" got the boy the thug's attention as he flipped out his switchblade. "I've been training with the black tracksuit wearing man, who taught me to be surgically precise with this knife. You can choose. I can cut your manliness off clean. I can cut your throat wide open. Or you'll quietly leave us alone." threatened him the preteen with a seriousness of a cold serial killer.
"I'll leave you alone and never try again." said the bull with a sweat drop , he turned hundred eighty and ran as his life depended on it. Until he met with a patrolling Hero to give himself in.
"Huh. That was close." exclaimed Izuku as he started to shake from the relief.
"Well done. You made him cower in fear." complimented him his trainer and he turned to the girl to reassure her. "You don't have to be afraid of my pupil, he prefers to be less scary. Unless there is no choice, he'll go with this way. I am Arashikage Tomisaburo." introduced himself to her.
"And I am Midoriya Izuku. Nice to meet you." followed him the boy as he put away his knife and bowed to the girl.
"Nice to meet you. I am Yaoyorozu Momo." introduced herself the girl.
"Mistress! Are you alright?" suddenly a tall (197 cm) and muscular butler appeared with worry on his face. (Imagine Sebas Tian with the mentioned height.)
"Don't worry Sebas-san. I am alright. Izuku saved me." reassured him the girl as she pointed at the boy, then the man eyed the him.
"Where did you came?" asked him the butler.
"I am from Musutafu. With my coach we had a short parkour visit in the Safe District." replied to him the greenette.
"You sound as an outskirts person. Your look is deceiving. I've heard a standoff going on when I realized the fact, I accidently left Mistress Yaoyorozu behind."
"I've just been training hard and I scared the criminal away. Nothing special."
"Really? A shin kick to two metres tall mountain of muscle? I would be curious about your training regimen." complimented him Sebas.
"Wait. Are you not even close to the poor?" asked Momo from Izuku the innocently blunt question.
"No, I'm not. But there are places, where you shouldn't go with fancier clothes than what I'm wearing now."
"Oh. Sorry. I didn't know. Can we be friends?" asked him young Yaoyorozu after her apology.
"I think we can be." answered her the young Midoriya
After this meeting, the young heiress gained a friend and the Cobra Industries earned their first major investor, the Yaoyorozu Family.
Finishing school on Tuesday, the greenette did his parkour training under Storm Shadow's supervision when he encountered with a blonde, foreign girl and a white haired Japanese girl being taken away by some questionable men. His teacher only gets the warning about acting when his protégé made beeline to save the girls.
"Leave them alone!" yelled Izuku as he charged at the kidnappers with his knives.
"What cute kid." joked one of the kidnappers as the fight started between them and the rescuing pair. Their numbers gave a trouble to the more skilled combatants.
"You release the girls!" warned them a lanky, thin man with white hair and this newly arrived wore a quite big poncho, green military jeans and black military boots.
"You must be joking with us stick." retorted the tallest and most muscular kidnapper to him.
"Whom are you calling stick? Y-You!" replied to him the thin formerly spectator as he buffed up in muscles considerably into a perfect body type of the buff All Might. Just being American and named badly. Now the formerly tall man was a half head shorter and less muscular to the previously changed and man. (Daniel DeLuca height of the Dreadnok is 172,2 cm, Road Pig is 220 cm tall.)
"Weakling!" growled the recently joined Road Pig and swatted his former opponent away ease.
"Hello big guy." greeted him Izuku as he quickly climbed up to the big guy's left shoulder, the latter quickly took the girls and ran with them. In the meantime Storm Shadow killed the would be kidnappers.
"Hey! Release us!" demanded the saved duo from the males, luckily they were taken back to the main street of the city just to reunite the girls with their respective fathers.
"Thank you for saving our children." thanked them the Japanese girl's father.
"It was n-nothing." replied the brute, just to return into his lanky persona and Izuku fell of him. Luckily the newly arrived Storm Shadow caught him.
"You have a unique Quirk sir." noted the two glasses wearing girl.
"When did you learned Japanese?" asked the boy's coach from the undercover Dreadnok.
"I took some time to learn." retorted the former brute.
"I need to learn your timing. By the way he isn't that special. He is Dan DeLuca, one of my trainer's friend. My coach is Arashikage Tomisaburo. And I am Midoriya Izuku. Nice to meet you." introduced them the young boy.
"Sekigai Kashiko. Can we be friends?" said the white hair.
"Shield Melissa." introduced herself the blonde a little shyly in Japanese, despite she is American.
"I'm sure you three can be friends." reassured them the trainer.
"How did you befriended with DeLuca-san?" asked Kashiko from Izuku.
"That's long story. But it started with a beach wrestling spar which ended in a pool because we argued about Shakespeare." answered her the boy.
"Okay." sweat dropped the two father and the girls, barely convincing themselves even to imagine the scene.
Later, Izuku became friends with Kashiko and Melissa.
When he the boy was five, he participated at a martial arts tournament, where he earned two more friends: Hiryu Rin and Itsuka Kendo. Izuku also met with Kyoka Jiro for the first time too at that age.
